-BEAUEXs--'''' ''' ''''' - Gloriying Yourself
 wn 4 We YY-A
By Alicia Hart

Now is the time to get a clear mental picture of the way you want to look this summer. Right now, weeks before you expect to appear on the beach in a bathing suit, resolve that when summer comes it will find you with trimly slender (not skinny figure, eyes bright, skin clear and smooth, posture perfect, waistline supple, hair shiningly healthy and ar ranged for comfort.
 Plan to beautify yourself from head to foot. Begin again to do limbering and stretching exercises regularly. Figure out diet which, if followed conscientiously, will al- low you to lose painlessly the few pounds you gained during the win ter months.
 Work on your skin until it is soft, smooth, unblemished ready to receive lovely coat of golden tan. Brush your hair every single night, use a tonic to correct what ever scalp defect you have, plan now for a summer hair-do that will keep your neckline cool and which, when necessary, can be pushed back into place with your own two hands.
 One Fifth Avenue coiffure expert cuts quite short hair with a bit of natural wave. In fact, the back re- minds one of the shingled effects of five years ago. Sides are pushed up away from ears and temples and the ends f1attened into loose ring lets. The front is brushed back ward from the brow. Naturally, one with perfectly straight hair couldn't wear this, but it's ideal for slightly Wavy locks.
 TRIM IMPORTANT
 FOR SUMMER COMFORT
 For any kind of comfortable hair style, the right trim is all-impor- tant. Hair cut correctly just falls back into place after a shampoo.
 Another interesting summer coiffure is a variation of the once popular Page Boy. Hair is cut fairly oAAOAo oo AAOAio uAlO olQCo, LII uSllcQ upward away from the face and fin- ished with little ringlets. The back ends are left quite long, then turned up instead of under. Equipped with few small metal curlers and some hairpins, anyone should be able to re-arrange this herself.
 LONG HAIR EFFECT
 GAINED BY NEW BOB
 Newest of all a hair-do that will appeal to the girl who wants cool neckline but doesn't want short bob. The hair is cut short at the front. The back is parted in the middle, with the left side trim med off bit and brushed up. The right half is brushed upward and to the left over the shorter half, then fastened with a small tortoise shell comb. This leaves the neck llne exposed, gives the effect of long hair but doesn't spoil the natural lines of the back of the head.
 NEXT: A summer face.

CREEK DEATH CASE
ISDEEPER MYSTERY
Chemical Analysis Of Stomach Of
Mrs. Lewis Fails to Reveal
Prison

Mystery surrounding the supposed
Staying of Mrs. Esther Lewis, whose
body was found floating in a Southern
Maryland creek on June 20, deepened
today as investigators disclosed a
chemical analysis of her stomach had
failed to reveal the cause of her death.
The possibility of second autopsy
on the body of the 31-year-old widow,
who was employed as charwoman at
the Bureau of Engraving and Printing,
was considered by Maryland authori-
ties after a conference here yesterday
with District homicide officials.
Failure of the first complete post
mortem examination to throw any
light on the cause of Mrs. Lewis death
strengthened a. theory advanced by
Maryland officers that she may have
been killed at the start of an at
tempted illegal operation by an over
dose of ether or chloroform, which
would not show in the analysis.
Questioning of local street car
conductor. who was said to have ad-
mitted he gave the woman money fol
such an operation because he believed
he was the father of child she nor
mally would have borne next fall
tended to implicate Washington
physician in the case, according to
States Attorney Arthur w. Dowell o.
Calvert County, Md. He said there
was not sufficient evidence to justify
an arrest as yet.

Is Settled.

Public Works Administration officials
said today legal matters connected with

of way have been cleaned up and they
are waiting now simply on the transfer
of funds from the Reconstruction
Finance Corp.
The allotment of $2500,0O0 for the
1856 miles of scenic right of way ex-
tending from Washington to Cumber-
land. Md, it was said, will be financed
by the r. F. c. through the sale of p.
w. A. bonds. Arrangements for this
financing are now under way
Because the Chesapeake and Ohio
Canal Co., owner, is in receivership,
officials said the final arrangements
closing the purchase deal will have to
be submitted to the District of Colum-
bia and Maryland courts having
jurisdiction.
The legal matters had been sub
mitted to Administrator Ickes. They
involved a number of knotty problems
affecting rights Of way owned by the
Baltimore & Ohio and the Western
Maryland Railroads and water for
mills supplied by the canal All these
matters, it was understood, have been
arranged satisfactorily between the
interested parties.

Traffic Record
For E Months
Best Since '33

Washington had fewer traffic
fatalities during the first six months
OF the year than any half-year period
since 1888, the Department of We
hicles and Traffic reported today.
Forty persons were killed in traffic
mishaps, reduction of 27.3 per cent
from the SIS who were killed last year
in the first six months. Since 1880
this record has been bettered only in
1888 when 80 were killed.
The first half Of this year also saw
. substantial reduction in the number
of accidents and personal injuries.
Injuries declined from 1892 last year
to 1888. and accidents dropped from
6,483 to 5,301.
Traffic Director William A. Van
Duzer attributed the declines to police
enforcement, newspaper publicity,
broadcasting of Traffic Court proceed
ings and prompt revocation of driving
permits of those convicted of drunk
driving and speeding.
"The motorist, too, must come in
for his share of the credit" he said.
I'VE can have all the regulations in
the world but unless the public obeys
them the rules are of no avail"
