Such fun to dine out when you know the etiquette rules!
 You don't point crudely at a table, crying Lets sit there"-and giving your beau a twinge of em- barrassment. You know he's your host for the evening, that it's up to him to suggest a table. And he's mighty proud of you as you smoothly play your role.
 You wait for the waiter or your beau to pull out your chair, which of course will be at the best side of the table, with the best view. Or if there's a cushioned seat against the wall, you take it without awk- ward hesitation. Your beau takes the chair.
 And you're never tormented by such questions as can you pick up asparagus with your fingers. (Yes when it's short, dry and firm0 Where can you put a roll when there's no butter dish? (On the ta- blecloth) Do you use spoon or fork for jelly served with meat? GA fork)
 Leisurely casually. you enjoy both dinner and date, and you may be sure your charming behavior will win other invitations.

 WITH INTELLIGENCE
 You also probably know woman who uses just as much flattery, but with enough subtlety and intell- gence so that she encourages her husband to devlop his potentiali- ties.
 She uses judgment in handing out her praise. If her husband takes up some new interest, she tells him how smart he is to do it. But she doesn't chime in with You're right" the minute his in- terest begins to lag and he starts to give it up.
 When she is disappointed in him she lets him krow it, without tear ing down his ego too much. No

"Glory That Was Greece"
BY ALICIA HART NEA Service Staff Writer

Classic cultures are the big beauty news at the moment. Along with fashion designers who are showing Grecian tIlrbans and beau- tifully draped evening gowns of jersey and floating SheerS, Elizabeth Arden introduces the Hellenic trend. Her showing of 1t, incidentally, CO., incided with the first performance of "Alceste," Gluck's famous Greek opera.
 She sent her coiffure designers to study marble statues and giant bronzeS in New York'S museums, to libraries to look at illustrations in books on ancient Greece. They came back with new ideas. And the new ideas have been translated into beautiful, classic and, more i'm portantly, wearable hairdos dorr. portantly, wearable hairdoS for us to wear for evening and with the new small hats which sit Squarely on the head.
 CURLS AT THE
 NAPE OF THE NECK
 Sometimes the face is framed with built-up hair, and this ought to be particuarly encouraging to the women whose face is long and thin and who never could quite manage an upswept effect.
 Sometimes the pompadour gives f< LaV Af n1Irlc rIn rryilNrry,c peak often is featured. When the pompadour does appear, it's a changed pompadour. Instead of sweeping straight up and away from the forehead, it begins in gentle sWerve farther back on the head and usually is finished in sculptured curls.
 The cfignon turns to Psyche's knot-slightly above the nape of the neck with short or long curls falling from it.
 Curls at the nape of the neck are important in the Grecian coiffure picture. If your own hair isn't long enough for ringletS, you can pin on false ones.
 False hair, as a matter of fact, is used in number of ways. Braids in every size are featured. So are chignons-in every size and shape, with or without dangling cursl.
 For evening, simple bands of gold and silver ribbons are bound around the head, in the ancient Greek manner. A wreath of shiny myrtle leaves is laced through the hair all the way aronud the head. Clusters of beautifully made grapes with waxy leaves are used near the chignon at the nape of the neck and the roll ever one car. A wreath of tiny white flowers (freSh ones could be used) goes straight across the forehead and disappears into the hair at the sides of one particularly fetching creation.
 Sure to appeal to the young is "Hermes," coiffure inspired by the newly shorn locks of young Greeks who, upon reaching their thirteenth year. cut off their hair as an offer ing to Apollo. The hair is cut short all over the head and then worn in hy-away ringlets, held in place by golden ribbon. While ringlets all over the head aren't exactly startling news, the hairdressers manage to make them look new by combing the hair up all the way around before shaping the curls and then binding the head with ribbon.
 "Bacchante" $ a two-way busi- ness. By day, its rolled sides reveal perfect widows peak, and there are Grecian curls at the nape Of the neck. At night, two punches of green grapes further enhance its classic charm.

WHY ELECTRICITY WAS
OFF SUNDAY

Local users of electricity were at
a loss to understand why the power
was off Sunday afternoon, and for a
pany, with all of it's efficiency in
hunting down trouble, also puzzled
There had been no electrical or
wind storm. After several hours
search the "why'' of it was solved.
Two boys about Is years of age,
near Corning, had taken the fine
wire from generator, and cut it in
lengths of about 25 feet, and then
would throw it across the main line,
causing short circuit, and would
remain that way until the fine cop
per wire would burn in two. This
performance was kept up for some
time, with the result fuses were
burned out, and in all the lights
were off from 1: 30 to 4:36.
After trying all sorts of ways to
pany started gang, walking the
lines, and the trouble was finally
located by G. j. Reid, superintend-
ent of the Ohio Power company, at
Crooksville. He took the two boys
into tow and notifying the sheriff
of Perry county, they were taken
before the juvenile judge at New
Lexington, where they were severe
ly reprimanded.
We think this fully explains the
reason the Power company did not
notify local customers ahead of
time, that the juice was to be shut
off, as has been their custom in the
past The prank not only shut off
the power here and Malta, but also
in Pennsville, Stockport and Ches-
terhill.
Monday the electricity was again
off for a short time. 1t was caused
by some of the same wire, which
had caught in trees, and was blown
over the line. The wire which did
all the damage was almost as fine
as silken thread, hence the reason
in not being able to locate the trou-
BILE sooner.
