Dear Mrs. Post: When a girl

Dear Mrs. Post: When I can't

Yours,
French Beauty Coming Here for Week End;
Mrs. Vordon1on Brings Word From PerIe

Hugo Gouthier, bachelor Brazil
ian Counselor, gives at least one
big cocktail party week and
always has a good reason for it.
Having lived in European capitals,
South American capitals and now
Washington, he knows everybody
from cabinet ministers to the So
called international set. And any
one Of his worldwide acquain-
tances is apt to be found at any
time at 1908 Twenty-eighth street.
This coming Saturday he will
entertain for one of the famous
beauties of Paris whose picture
appeared In Life magazine under
that classification some months
back. Nine. Raoul Mallard and
her husband arrived in New York
q couple Of weeks ago, will come
to Washington on Friday to spend
the week end with Hugo.
Blond Nine. Mallard is famous
not only for her natural beauty,
which she accents with excep-
tionally little makeup, but also for
her chic, beautiful clothes and
beautiful jewels. Her husband
owns the two famous department
stores in Paris, the Galleries La
fayette and the Printemps, which
have branches in other parts OF
France. Their Paris house Is
none other than the one the Duke
and Duchess of Windsor formerly
lived in and which they sold to
the Mallards. They also have a
show place in the south OF France
near Cannes.
But that isn't all the glamour
Hugo will have on Saturday.
Along with the usual array OF
Washington's prettiest will be
Sharman Douglas, daughter OF the
American Ambassador to Great
Britain, and her English friend,
Elizabeth Jackson, both OF whom
are weekending with the Chaun-
cey Parkers.
Last Saturday the likeable
Brazilian diplomat had another
good looking, blond excuse for a
party. She was Doris Lilly OF New
York who has just finished q
book with the encouraging title,
"How to Meet a Millionaire. ."
Now in the hands Of the printers.
1t is the story of two girls who
70 from a small town to the big
city and naturally want to get
ahead. She's already sold the
story to the movies and said she's
going to write sequel next called.
"How to Marry a Millionaire. +"
With q title like that and 12,751.-
772 unmarried females over Is
(1940 census), how can she lose?
Mrs, James K. Vardaman, wife
of the governor Of the Federal
Reserve Board, got back last week
from q European jaunt. She and
her son Kim left the latter part
of October in a veritable whirl-
wind. They went, in fact, on
three days notice which, when you
consider passports, visas, etc., Is
nothing short of miraculous. The
reason for the trip was the mar
