York and in washington Dy nanu-
full of courageous souls seems to be
simmering down. The present ver-
sion of the pompadour, which looks
as though it will be the only lasting
one, is modified form which follows
the contour of the head more close
ly than the original style.
In spite of few Of the younger
set who have made every effort to
keep the shoulder-length bob popu-
lar. hair is becoming shorter. 1t
will not be so short that it even
family resembles the "boyish cut
or the "shingle," those horrible men,
cries of a few years past. However,
1t has been proven that when the
world is in a state of turmoil, wom-
en- turn to simpler, more functional
hair styles, relying upon careful
shaping and softly arranged styles
for smartness.
This season, predictions are that
hair will be shaped to the head, the
natural hairline will be emphasized
and there will be less fussiness,

To measure a half-teaspoon-

quarter spoonful halve cross
wise.
New curtains are difficult to
wash. AS a rule, they are full
of lime, and take a large guam
tity of soap, washing powder,
etc, before they become clean.
All this can be avoided by keep
ing the curtains overnight in
water in which a little salt has
been dissolved. BY this means
soap and labor can be saved, as
the salt draws every bit of lime
out of the curtains.
When pressing a wash dress
made with plaits, dampen be-
fore pressing, with water in
which a few Jumps of gum
arabic have been dissolved. The
plaits will then stay in longer.

Dear Miss Dix: Do you think that
a man of so can ever keep girl of
20 content and happy in marriage?
That's my case, and I feel as if I
were married to my grandfather.
My husband and I don't think
alike nor act alike. We can dis
cuss subject for ages and still not
arrive at harmonious decision. We
don't talk the same language. Even
a funeral parlor would seem bright
and gay next to our evenings at
home. This is my second marriage,
but it Is no soap. MRS. A. T.
Answer-A happy marriage be-
tween man of so and a girl of 20
would be virtually a miracle. The
gulf of years that lies between them
is too wide for them to span, no
matter how hard they try to do so,
because on each side of it is
different way of life different ideals,
habits. customs, different thoughts,
feelings and desires. Foolish are
those who attempt to mix youth
and age Of course. in these days
a man of so isn't aged. He thinks
of himself as a mere boy, but he
befools himself in doing so. With

chalk-talking artist, musician or
two, an amusing speaker-an these
are possibilities.
When refreshments are served,
you'll try to avoid giving the impress
sion that you're seeing food for the
first time after a six weeks hunger
strike.
A boy may bring his date a plate
OF edibles, after finding out what
she'd like to have. Or If there is a
buffet, he follows her in the line,
helping her in any way he can, find
ing seat for her, and going back to
get the napkin or lump of sugar
which she invariably forgets. No
pushing or crowding, stealing food
of other peoples plates, throwing
olive seeds, or other juvenile antics.
Why give people the idea that you
were brought up in bread line?
When you're through eating, re-
turn your dishes to the table, or to
some place for them. Don't leave a
paper plate on a chair, or a cup
half full of coffee on the railing of
the orchestra platform. Have you
ever sat in the remnants of a piece
of pumpkin pie, or dumped cold
coffee on your ankle? If you have.
you'll heed this warning.
And one last word. We've eX-
pressed our opinion of party crashers
before and in no uncertain terms.
Everything we've said about people
who try to crash a private party
also goes for those who horn in on
class or club functions. No one ex-
cept an out-and-out barbarian goes
where he hasn't been invited, or
takes along an ineligible guest with
out the express permission of the
hostess or committee in charge.
Excessive shyness has ruined
many a young modern's enjoy
ment Of school and private party.

Mrs. Katharine E. Byron
Is Elected Mnryland's
First COngresslUOn1Gn
Widow Of Late Congressman Defeats A.
Charles Stewart In Close Race-Carries Mont
gOmery BY 2,771 Votes

Elected as the first woman to
represent Maryland in Congress,
Mrs. Katharine E. Byron, 81,
widow of the late Congressman
William D. Byron, was successful
in defeating A. Charles Stewart,
Republican candidate, in a special
Sixth District election Tuesday,
May 81.
Although the vote was light,
party leaders were jubilant over
the fact that Mrs. Byron carried
the district by a majority of APP
proximately 1903 votes. Her total
popular vote was 25,838 as against
24,335 for Mr.. Stewart.
Montgomery voters again placed
enough tallies to elect a Demo-
cratic candidate. Mrs. Byron
needed 1928 votes to assure her
election after a count Of the four
other counties was completed and
a majority of 2,771 in Montgom-
cry County insured it.
In the 1889 Congressional race
Mrs. Byron's husband, the late Will
liam D. Byron received an over
whelming majority of approx
mately 1854 votes in Montgomery
County to win for him the seat his
widow now holds. Voting machines
were used in Montgomery County.
The following table Of results
are not official but are the latest
available:

COLONIAL TEA
FOR BUNDLES
FOR BRITAIN

A Colonial Tea for Bundles for
Britain will be held on Sunday af-
ternoon, June 8 from a to $3.50
o'clock at Grayhaven Manor, Pool
esville. This old manor house, for
the past two summers has been the
scene Of a pageant portraying the
life of it's founder, Stephen Newton
Chiswell and his descendants,
seems appropriate for an enter
tainment to aid Britain, since the
bricks in the old house came from
England, and the founder was born
there.
This house, built in 1895, show
ing the date on the north side in
burned brick letters a foot high
set in the wall, and described by
Katherine Scarborough in Homes
of the Cavaliers, will present, on
the day of the silver colonial tea,
a glimpse of early American hos
pitality = young girls in Colonial
costume, early English and Ameri-
can songs, and some of the favo-
rite dishes of Washington's time.
Under the auspices of Mrs. Upton
D. Nourse, chairman of the Bundles
for Britain committee for North
Western Montgomery County, the
hostess, Mrs. B. E. Gray and her
assistants invite those interested in
Britain, in old homes, or in a June
afternoon in the country to attend
on Sunday, June 8.

cludes Mrs. Upton d. Nourse, Mrs.
B. E. Gray, Mrs. Sprigg Hayes,
Mrs. Frank Molby, Mrs. Benjamin
