Short Hair The
Newest Thing
BY HELEN FOLLETT

THERE has been q marvellous
Improvement in one type of woman.
We refer to the poor, faded dear
who, unwilling to acknowledge her
birthdays and endeavoring to dis
guiss them, ha =, been wearing the
long, flowing bob. The popularity
Of the short cut persuaded her to
join up with the shorties and what
q change there has been! She looks
smarter and neater and, what is
more to the point, she looks her age,
which is more seemly than efforts to
look like her daughter.
Hair stylists claim that the brief
trim il here to stay, that most wom-
en- are tired of building rolls atop
their domes. But who can tell?
Fashions are ever in state of evo-
luton, and that's just dandy. Change
is exciting, A style runs its course.
When everybody has taken to it, the
step-aheaders want something df-
ferent.
Different Styles
A lot can be done with four-inch
mop, You can be fiat top, fluff out
ringlets around your ears, have the
hair chic, smooth and turned under
at the nape line.
II you like to be . fluffy round
head, do q sophisticated up swing
front, back and sides, letting the
hair fall in soft ringlets as they are
on the head Of . baby who was born
with naturally curly tresses.
Everyday Wear
For casual everyday wear you
can have q side parting with cute
little. sausage rolls on either side
and i larger roll across the back.
This mode is easily arranged--takes
about two minutes by the clock
and II il becoming to nearly all
faces, fat or thin, long or short.
The trouble with the built-up-
hish hair do Is that it makes some
women look top heavy, especially
the chunky little short girls. That
il makes women look older is sure
guess. It belongs, by rights, to the
dixnihed middle AGED lady.

Avenue eel" was put into operation
in New York City, it furnished a
welcome means of transportation to
uptownere, who had been trekking
down by horse-car to Cavanagh's
Restaurant for two years.
And no wonder! A fine dish of
oysters cost only / s cents. You could
get . prime. thick, juicy steak for a
quarter: and a six course dinner,
literally from soup to nuts, for all
Of fifty cents-and of the best!
Madame, where was this fabu-
lous placer" asked the Chef.
"In the old Chelsea district, and
it's still there. But of course it's
been remodelled. and so have the
prices"
"Let US go down and visit this old
restaurant. Any eating house that
can last more than fifty years in one
place in New York City is worth
SEEING" remarked the Chef.
Dark Panelled Walls
Even with its face lifted, so to
speak, the restaurant reminded me
Of Life with Father" The polished
dark wood panelled walls, the COL
ored Tiffany glass lamps, the ex-
pansive tables, sparkling white
napkins, heavy polished silver, re-
Elected = hospitality dispensed for
decades.
"This is = place for gourmets and
gourmands," remarked the Chef.
ayes sir" said the elderly head
waiter, handing US a menu. "Dia-
mond Jim Brady used to dine here
often with Lillian Russell. They
both enjoyed good food and plenty
Of it. Lillian adored creams, rich
sauces, cooked-in-butter dishes, and
always ordered the most fattening
entrees on the bill of fare. In those
days nobody knew anything about
Galleries. Lillian certainly was
buxom lass" he sighed. Don't you
think the girls today are little too
skinny?"
The Chef laughed. "They tell me
that curves are coming into fash
ion again."
"Curves, yes, but not too much
weight" countered.
1t seems the type of foods on the
enormous menu cards have changed
very little since 1878, except for the
prices.
Inside the Budget
The Chef scanned the menu. "Of
course there are the magnificent
steaks and chops, but there also sew
eral dishes here that would be good
for our readers to use in their own
homes, as they are inside the budget.
Par exemple, we have the New Eng
land Clam Chowder; the broiled
Kennebec salmon; the boiled chicken
in the pot with vegetables and
noodles; there are chicken outlets
with sauce supreme"-
"a nice dish for any family. And
it can be made from oddments, too"
I interrupted.
"Then we have the grilled chopped
steak, the veal goulash, and here is
Navarin Of Lamb Grandmere. This
is very fine baked lamb stew in the
style Of grandmother"
Lets try it. Chef" said. "Well
start with that special bowl of
mixed green salad with soured
cream. And for dessert I'd like one
Of those old-fashioned fruit short
cakes. They're a speciality of this
restaurant, made with rich baking
powder biscuits, strawberries,
peaches or berries in season and al

Zionist Youth Opposes
Revision of Israel's
Boundaries

MISUNDERSTANDING a week
end annual convention here, more
than 100 delegates representing
Zionist youth in three states of
the New England Region of
Masada voted opposition of any
tactic that would further dwindle
the territorial status of Israel.
The action was taken amid re-
ports that the British were at
tempting through power-politics
to bring about a revision lessening
the boundaries of the new Jewish
State.
In another resolution delegates
commended DR.. Abba Hillel Silver
and the American Zionist Emerg-
ency Council for "tireless effort in
behalf of the Jewish people"

propriated, the League charged.
Propaganda turned out by
Johnston has included millions of
the familiar Klansmen-On-hOrse-
back stickers, which have been a
basic Klan-prOmotion device for
years, and which have in addition
been used of late to disfigure the
doors of Negroes, Jews and other
persons whom the Khan has
sought to "warn."
"The self-evident purpose of all
these manifestations of Ku Klux-
cry, including the forthcoming ma
tional klonvacation on S to- e
Mountain July %, is to elect a
horde of Rankin's, so as to turn
the Congress of the U. S. A. into

asked that it be included in the
Senate investigation.
Most alarming aspect of the
new Khan which is based
on two of the largest and most
active Klaverns in the state-is it's
announced intention to enter the
radio broadcasting, and possibly
television, field. The new corpor-
ate charter approved by Judge
Fort specifically authorizes such
activity.
The nOn-Sectarian Anti-Nazi
League registered with the Fed
eral Communications Commission
ga vigorous protest against the
licensing of any Ku KluX Khan
station or brOadcasting facility"
and asked the American AssOcia-
ton of BrOadcasters to do like
wise.
Meanwhile, counsel for the Lea
que are initiating steps to seek
revocation of the new Khan char
ter, contending that all of the
grounds which led to the revo-
cation of the earlier charter apply
with additional force to the record
of the two Klaverns which have
constituted the new group.
Dominant figure behind the new
Khan group is "ParsOn Jack"
Johnston, self-styled CyclOps OF

publisher of a weekly hate-sheet

propaganda to fight unions. "A

Tourette Offers Cheau
Vacation Diversion
By Carol Lone
North American Newspaper AIliones

NEW YORK, Aug. 28.-There's
many a woman who can't swing a
full-scale vacation just now, but
there's not one, I suspect, who
wouldn't welcome change of scene
and break in her everyday routine.
For these people we recommend a
tourette-a two-day, budgeted little
vacation within a 200-mile radius of
home.
Here's how it's done:
Find your home town on q road
map. Then, using the mileage scale,
measure off a piece of string repre-
senting 200 miles. Tack one end of
the string to your home town and,
with pencil on the other end, swing
a circle on the map. Inside the
circle is your tourette area.
Now, using a more detailed State
map, look at the area you've marked
OH. Find the places you most want
to visit, determine your route and
you're all set to 60.
OF course, there is no hard-and-
fast rule about what distance to
travel. But in my tourette- ing I've
found 200 miles to be just about
right. A drive of that length allows
plenty of time to loaf and sightsee
along the way and still find a sleep
ing place before dark. Or, If you
prefer, you can head straight for
your destination and browse about
there for the remainder of the day.
I've tested tourette costs with q
friend and found that we could have
perfect two-day trip for $1190
each! This included five meals away
from home, cost of the cabin, sight
seeing fees and gasoline and OIL
Part of the secret is picnics. Be-
fore you set out, pack lunch for the
first days trip. Then plan on a
cabin breakfast before your second
days drive. It's easy. Have the
thermos filled with coffee the night
before, buy some fruit and pastry
and you have a picnic breakfast that
is both convenient and economical.
Incidentally, it's very often hard to
find a restaurant open when you
want to make an early morning
start.
You'll be amazed how much fasci-
mating sightseeing you can work into
brief two days. The high point
Of your tourette may be a fishing
expedition, a summer theater play,
a historic building. factory tour
the choice is up to you. But one
thing Is sure: You'll have a stimu-
lating, relaxing time on your close
to-home vacation.
