FLASHES

PARIS, June 8 G.N.SJ.
Charles James, the pixie Franco
British-American designer, who
is to fashion what Gertrude
Stein is to literature, has been
in Paris for his annual showing
and up to some tricks destined
to find an echo in America next
fall He is using wide fan box
pleats to form the bodice Of
strapless evening gowns, leaving
a wide flare at the top, to look
more daring than ever The
fan then is repeated in his eve
ming capes, which are all long,
narrow triangles Of two or three
contrasting shades sewn to-
gether, making the wearer look
like the center of a sunburst.
Back in London, James let lily
with a new idea in blouses
On the bosom of simple white
pique blouse he fastened a real
istic envelope of the material,
flap and all, and stuffed it full
of flowers Another blouse,
cut with weird zigzagging seams,
is really a triumph of engineer
ing that proves Mr.. James knows
his metier When you put 1t
on it hangs almost to the knees,
but when twisted around and
around the body the lower part
becomes clinging, crushed CIR

Of using the little fabric pads

about the whims of women and
have an endless variety to offer,
but we find there are still some
women who feel a puff must be

the powder adheres better after

Pearls
For
>)une

KNOWING the flowers
IN and jewels of a current
month is helpful in planning
gifts. With weddings and
graduations crowding the
calendar, there is no month,
with the exception Of Deem
Der, when gift-giving is so
rampant as in June.
Pearl is the birthstone for
June and honeysuckle is the
flower.
Certainly neither are very dra-
matte or flamboyant, but as
long as We prize jewels, we will
cherish pearls.
Mentioned
In Bible
Since the dawn of history the
pearl has been worshiped for
its beauty.
We find early mention of the
pearl in the Book Of Job and in
the Talmud.
The Romans became attached
to the pearl through association
with the Egyptians, the Per.
slams, and the Hindus, who
greatly admired pearls and wore
them whenever possible. Pearls
were much in demand by
women during the height Of
Rome'S power. Even to this
day pearls make up many of the
treasures in royal gem collec.
tons. Among the beautiful
gems in the pearl treasury Of the
Gaekwar of Maroda is a cash
of 100 rows of pearls, the value
of seven of the rows has been
set at almost one million dollars.
This ruler also owns litter set
with seed pearls and carpet of
pearls which measure 1917 feet
long by 6 feet wide. DR.. KunZ,
the well-known gem authority,
believes this pearl rug to be the
most costly frivolity in the
world, computing its value at
several million dollars.
Many Legends
Attach to Origin
Hindus believe that their God
Vishnu created the pearl and
hence we find their images OF
this god decked with these beau
tiful and handsome stones.
While records concerning the
pearl date back for more than
5000 years, and we know that
the pearl was known long be-
fore. this, the first authentic
record of any gem is that of the
pearl.
Probably the loveliest as well
as the oldest legend concerning
the pearl is the belief that it
originates when drop of dew
falls into the shell. Other
stories say that the tears Of the
gods and of beautiful angels
change into pearls as they fall
toward the earth. This is prob
ably the source of the legend
that the pearl brings tears-and
is entirely wrong.

Wait AWhiLe
Dear Mr.. Antheil: I am 10.
I want to meet girls and get
around a little before thinking
seriously of them. I don't think
you will blame me for that. But
a situation with a girl won't let
me do that without hurting her.
I met the girl properly and
found her to be one of the best.
after a few dates I began to
think she was getting serious.
So confided in her how I felt
about seriousness. She said she
would try not to get serious over
me. like her and respect her.
Then I found she was not dat
ing other boys, even though she
could.
cat no time did I commit my
self. know I will never get a
better girl, but my heart is not
set on her. as it were. I have
tried to tell her I don't want to
continue seeing her, but 1 could
see I was hurting her. I don't
want to see her, but I go back
and it gets worse all the time.
I tried to break off by getting
her angry at me, but it didn't
work. I went out with other
girls and knew she knew it.
He Couldn't
Hurt Her
II was hurting her terribly
and I just couldn't do that. She
is 81 and has a right to think
seriously and feel she is spoil
ing her chances sticking with
me. I know I should quit alto
gether but how can I do that
without hurting her.
"BEWnDERED."
You have to face facts, young
man You are diIlv-dallyinp
along because you are a coward.
It is sad to have to hurt a girl
who loves you, but you have to
do it or you will be drawn into
marriage before you know it.
Take your stand. Don't go to
see her no matter what happens.
I know what is wrong. With
words in your mouth that said
mo seriousness, your actions
were quite the contrary and now
you feel guilty. That IS why it
worries you about hurting her.

FAKE LOTTERY TICKETS

The purchase of Irish sweepstakes tickets continues in many sections of the country despite the repeated seizure of fake lottery tickets of the Irish sweepstakes brand by the De- partment of Justice and the postal authorities.
 It is claimed by some that the announced seizure of fake lottery tickets is of little aid to warn the gullible against indulging their gambling tendencies in such rackets. They assume that with each seizure of fake tickets their chances of win ming increase; this of course is good reasoning concerning a very loath some and degrading kind of activity. However, when it is considered that the maximum efficiency of the Dept. of Justice and the postal authorities will result in destroying less thar one-third of the fake lottery tickets, the odds against winning any ma

HONOR THE PROSPECTOR
 Seward Gateway

Mine location notices, placer and lode, are in constant demand It all spells busy life for the prospector, active in hunting out gold bearing ground.
 There is romance about gold, cer- tainly, in the hunt for it, but along with it a lot of hard work on the part of the prospector. Hardly enough credit is given these men, They never give up. And following them is capital investment, bring ing prosperity in measure, with work and honest endeavor toward dependence.
 Alaska and whatever point of in dustrial peaks may have been, or may be reached, can be traced back in great measure to the prospector.
 There should be a Prospector's 5 Day in Alaska, a time set aside when honor is paid the men who. facing privations and hardships have forged forward in the field of trea- sure hunting that brings comforts and opportunities to the many who follow.

ACTION AGAINST GAMBLING

Three Of the largest cities in the country-Philadelphia, Chicago and New York-haYe rated the front pages of the leading daily newspa- bers in their fight against gam bling. A special grand jury in the City Of Brothefly Love has just dis covered after an investigation oi some nine months that vice and crime have flourished there during the past two years because of a conspiracy entered into among gamblers, the police and city off cials. Following an extended inYes- tigation of the facts by the special grand jury, the regular August grand jury, on the basis of the eYi- dence submitted to it, handed down indictments against 150 gamblers
 The grand Jury, it was stated, will continue its efforts Ito lay bare the causes Of wholesale vice, bribery and extortion' and request ed the continued cooperation and support of the State Attorney Gen erals Office.
 In Chicago, where 1t is alleged that Scarfaee Al Capone's old gang Is still flourishing to the take of millions of dollars a year from handling bets on horse races, and where the courts have held that jockey sheets and registers were not evidence under the law, Thomas J. Courtney, States Attorney, has ordered the police to raid and de- stroy the paraphernalia and furnish ings Of the various booking places in the city. The fancy leather Cush- ions and hangings are shredded, the modernistic chromium furniture is smashed, and mahogany paneling Is split and broken up with the fire mems heavy axes.
 The plight of the bookies, amcng whom are leaders of prohibition days rackets- Frank Nitti, Ralph Capone, Billy SkidmOre, Big Bill Johnson, and Dago Lawrence Man gano-has been made more desper- ate by the activities of the Chicago Church Federation. This organiza- tion demanded that Governor Henry Horner support State's Attorney Courtney in an effort to discover the identity of alleged politicians who are giving the nod of approval to the gambling cliQues. Members of the Federation told the Governor that an investigation would reveal "a scandal of the first magnitude" declaring that crooked officials levy a tribute of $25O per from tLe book ies.
 Aside from the raeket-busting ae- tivities of District Attorney Thomas D. Dewey in New York City, Mayor La Guardia ordered TOT slot mach ines to be crushed to bits. The col lection included some 430 brand new streamlined machines, all of which were put under a hydraulic hammer, such as used in mashing concrete pavements and the frag- ments dumped into the bay, the destiny of all confiscated gambling devices in New York.
