Ned is thrilled to meet Joan. He's never talked to a real short- story writer before!
 He'd never dream that Joan used to spend lots of wall-flower evenings before she forgot her shy. ness watching for things to write about.
 She got the idea for her first published story at 8 party like to- nights. CHARACTERS: Football hero, a local fiirt. 8 clinging vine. PLOT: How one girl put 1t over on the other. ,7Jf.
 What fun she had storing away in her mind amusing scraps of con- versation. And instead of The said'' and "she said,". she made the hero "bluster," grin" or "stammer" his words: the fiirt ''mocked," "fiat- tered" "cajoled"; while the clingt1g vine "tittered," sighed" and 'cooed." ~ Our s2-page booklet shows how to choose subjects, build up Q color ful vocabulary, avoid grammatical errors, prepare manuscripts for stib- mission to editors.

standing costumes in the winter wardrobe of the Duchess of Kent, who recently selected several new ensembles at Molyneux's house in London. r,
 The full-skirted design made with close fitting bodice is highlight ot the current Molyneux collection ana interpretations of 1t have been chos- en by several European fashion leaders. The duchess's gown is de- signed with horizontal draped bodice and broad shoulder straps which cross at the back.
 Following the trend for luxurious costumes for afternoon, the Duchess of Kent, who is recognized as one of the best-dressed women in the world, chose dreSsy black velvet suit with large collar of, silver fox as trim. Designed with short jacket and straight-lined skirt, the duchess selected a blouse of black satin made with diagonal V seams for wear with the ensemble.
 Another costume which she will wear for afternoon Is of black crepe, the high neckline and one side O. the blouse trimmed with gold "ba- rogue" stylized embroideries. Rich in detail, the costume Is cut on straight lines, giving an effect Of utmost simplicity set of by the bril- liant trim.
 Walnut beige Is the duchess's col- or choice for a sports dress which she has ordered at Molyneux. Fash toned of the soft new woolen that Is being featured at Paris fashion houses, 1t Is designed with pleated skirt and scarf. There is no note of color contrast in the costume which has as its only trim a tailored belt of matching leather.

In putting her own feelings down on paper, the little high school girl has told men a lot of true things about women.

As the comparison ran between Saul and David, the airplane or poSon gas may slay their thousands. but the good old carbine and stiletto continue to slay their tens of thousands.
 This is obvious in Spain, where they now estimate the dead at half a million. But it is self-evi- dent that only very small num- Der of the victims were killed by the bombs over Madrid, Guerni- ca, Valencia. It is hideous to read of women and children slain from the air. But for every one such victim there may be as many as a hundred men, women and child ren who have died by shooting, stabbing and starvation in the murderous grinding of the wheels of civil war in thousand towns and villages.

SCIENCE AND SLAUGHTER.
(New York Times)

George Lansbury met Signor Marconi ten days before the great inventors death. Marconi said it was a terrible thing that the sci entific genius of modern man should be used for purposes of destruction He feared that the final outcome of modern inven- ton might be the ruin of all that is precious in our inheritance from the past.
 Marconi should know, if any one. His great discovery is asso- ciated in our minds with the ser vice of mercy in it's most impress sive and most ancient form, the rescue of life at sea. But if we wish to be very cynical,we might argue that wireless, too, has been corrupted. Many more lives than have been saved at sea by the sos. have been destroyed in battle by marconigram orders from military headquarters. The Italian high command wireleSsed thousands upon thousands of Eth iopians to death by crisp orders to its bombing planes. Where on- ce upon time Napoleon needed perhaps dozen couriers to send ten thousand men to their death, a commander in chief can do it now with a few dots and dashes.
 But in the final account the guilt does not lie with modern machinery. The real culprit IS the old, unregenerate, untechno- logical heart of man. He uses the terrifying new machines as an alibi. The most terrifying whole
