Vicky and the Uphams were swift

when it comes to setting a fashion
pace on dry land it is all that it
should be.
If you want to show up colorfully
in fashions swim and beach parade
by all means choose f1amboyant
print. Designers land print this sea-
son for the entire outfit, swim suit,
matching beach coat, accessories
n everything, even to the very SAN
dals one wears. Printed silk crepe
that washes to perfection makes the
one-piece bathing suit with halter
top shown to center-left in the pic
ture. The matching long beach coat
has shirred yoke and full push
up sleeves. ..
To fashionables who go in for
aquatic sports here is a message to
delight the Imagination. It's con-
corning the wide use of costume
jewelry being made this season by
those who go forth to brave the
surf. Things that walk or swim or
fly is the theme for the pins and
clips to adorn bathing suits and such.
The idea is to wear pinned here
and there on your swim suit frogs,
turtles, or decorative fish hand
carved from rich white catalin. See
the cunning little lady to the right
in the picture. Her clever play-suit
is of Congo cloth with gray, white
and red striped halter and gray
shorts trimmed with same stripping.
A hand-carved frog of handsome
white catalin blinks at you from
the edge of her amusing coconut
husk hat, another frog is pinned
to her halter bodice while a third
pins casually to one side near her
waistline. Clever idea these beach
jewelry novelties, and the fad is
being taken up with enthusiasm.

NEW SUMMER SUITS
FAVOR EMBROIDERY

Helm has gone in for embroidered
details on spring and summer suits.
One black tailored suit in black
wool has straight little skirt and a
tailored and fitted jacket that fas-
tens high at the neck with a cut-out
and embroidered design of a bird in
a cage. The round cage is banded
by gold embroidery which matches
the gold braid that trims the neck
line. Inside the round cage is nat
ural linen foundation upon which is
embroidered little silk bird.
A more summary suit is gregg
between gray and beige) shantung.
The skirt is made with front pleats
that are stitched down to the knees
and then pressed into place. The
jacket fastens high at the neck but
is cut away in center v to make
small revers and to reveal blouse
of black linen embroidered all over
in a conventional design Of colored
birds.

Alone at Party, You
Can Still Enjoy 1t! e

n EAR Mrs. Post: Doesn't my
~ husband, who is to je an usher
at a wedding, have to spend any
time with me-a stranger-at the
reception? / am invited to every
thing but none of the husbands and
wives of the attendants have been
asked to sit with the wedding party
at breakfast, and feel little ap-
palled at the thought of being en-
tirely alone at the reception,
Answer: How busy youl husband
will be kept at the reception de-
ponds upon whether the reception is
a formal one at which the women
guests stand in line, each on the
arm of an usher, who presents her
to the bride and groom, or whether
the guests go up to the bridal cou-
pie by themselves. But in any event
your husband would certainly join
you (if he does not 60 with YOU'D
when you arrive at the reception
and introduce you to everyone in
the receiving line. And unless he
too is stranger he would intro
duce other friends of his to you
before leaving you to usher other
guests. Or perhaps he will be free
to stay with you until the bridal
party takes its place at table.
During the breakfast he would be
obliged to leave you, but since, ac-
cording to your account, there will
be other. unattached husbands and
wives there, it seems to me that
you would naturally form a group
together. If for any reason this is
lot practical, then the only thing to
do is to consider the happenings
around you as you would were you
an onlooker at a spectacle. It is
not at all embarrassing and not
even unamusing if you can assume
an impersonal point of view.
Probably you think / am talking
nonsense. AS matter of fact, I
remember an occasion many years
ago when a young woman found
herself alone at party among COM
plete strangers-and she did just
that! She watched what was going
on with such evident enjoyment of
the picture surrounding her, that
as it happened she was not long
alone. But even if she had been, I
am sure she would not have minded
at all. To sit alone and neglected
among people one knows would be
another matter.

CHAPTER v-Continuedl

"How about a walk?" Quentin
said then. The Uphams declined.
Chase was sleepy, and Dora tired.
But Victoria, in an old, short skirt,
a white cap, an enveloping borrowed
sweater of Quentin's, was all ready
for it.. She and her host went off
together for one of life's happy
hours.
They climbed straight up the
great shoulder of the mountain;
stopped, painting and flushed, to get
their breath and to look down on
the sparkling world; went on again.
The sun was hot on the singing
blue February morning, but the
ground under their feet, especially
when the trail went into the woods,
was soaked and slippery from re-
cent rains. Quentin gave her his
hand; she slid against him; they
both laughed.
Reaching the summit of the spur
with the dark blue rise of Tamalpais
high above them, they sat upon a
Sun-warmed rock for while, look
ing down, breathing in the aromatic
sweetness of the still, clear air, list
ening to the cries of larks all about
and the occasional scream of a Jay
or chatter of a chipmunk in the
chaparral.
When they started to slip and
slide down, the going was infinitely
easier, especially with the tree
smothered brown goal of the cabin
roof right ahead. Vicky and Quen-
tin came back to the cabin at one
o'clock, breathless, ravenous and
weary.
Once again the quartette that
gathered about the table was in
gala mood. More than once again
Victoria told herself that this was
one of the good days, this was one
OF the satisfying times!
But just after the leisurely meal
there was an interruption. A car
came up the circuitous bit of road
way to the porch with the speed of
familiarity. Quentin's expression of
Mortified expectation, at which Vic
toria had been laughing, changed to
one of odd embarrassment, of some
thing like faint annoyance-like
qualification.
"It's Marian, it's Mrs. Pool" he
had time to say under his breath
before he went out to welcome her.
"Oh, help!" Dora commented,
disgustedly. Victoria said nothing.
But the glory, the content of the day
instantly were destroyed. 1t was
with sense of dullness, a vague
feeling of hurt that she entered upon
the requisite moving of chairs and
shifting of places to make room for
the newcomer. Marian Pool, lovely
in the smartcst of sportwear, came
o the room with rush and stood
with her head tipped little on one
side, alphabetically smiling at them
all.
ooh, you're having a party! Oh,
how shameless of mel" she said.
''But why on earth are you eating
at half-past four o'clock? Sit down,
everyone-do sit down, DR.. Upham
here, everyone sit DOWN."
They all sat down, and Victoria
saw the expression on Quentin Har-
disty's face. He saw nothing but
Marian.
Were all driving up for supper
at Maud s." the newcomer said.

When Do You Start
Calling a Boy "Mr."?

n EAR Mrs. Post: ~ AT exactly
~ what age should young people
be introduced as "Miss" and "Mr."
to their elders, and (2) Does your
same answer to No. l also apply to
intrOductions between contempOra-
ries?
Answer: Girls are not introduced
as "Miss" nor boys as "Mr." until
they seem grown-this tseems" de-
termined according to appearance
and mental qualifications. But usu-
ally a girl would be introduced as
"Miss" at about seventeen and a
boy at nineteen or twenty. ~ No,
they are given a title at much
younger age when introduced by
persons whom they know slightly.
On the other hand, when introduced
by one of their intimate friends to
another who is also an intimate
friend of the one introducing them,
they are called by their whole name
without any titles. "Sally Green
Bill Neighbor."
Taste Governs Mourning.
n EAR Mrs. Post: I am just
~ twenty-One and have lost my
mother. What will others expect Of
me in the matter of mourning, both
as to behavior and dress? feel
my loss deeply and / don't want
others to think don't, and yet I
don't want to carry my grief SO
plainly that others will be de-
pressed, nor do I want to make
things worse for myself. May I go
to a local athletic club to which
my family belongs to use the gym
nasium and to swim and play
games?
Answer: How you behave indi-
Gates much more the depth of your
mourning than what you wear or
where you go. This does not mean
to let yourself cry, or sit wrapped
in your own sadness, but merely
that you should behave with quiet
inconspicuousness. No one expects
you not to go to the houses of your
friends, either when they are alone
or when they are having a very few
others who are also your friends.
Naturally you would not 60 to
dances or to big parties. You can,
however, go to the movies with a
member of your family or friend
alone. And of course you need not
give up sports that can be consid-
cred exercise and are therefore nee
essay to your health.
Reception Rhythm.
n EAR Mrs. Post: When there Isl
~ to be no dancing at the recepJ
ton, what type of music does the
orchestra play? wish we could
have dance music but l suppose
this would be unsuitable under the
circumstances. LOO 4a,
Answer: They play popular mu-
sic. of the day. This can perfectly
well include dance music even
though no one dances.
