your contours to make your
clothes look as well tailored as
they are.
For a neat silhouette under fig
ure-hitting daytime suits and
dresses, wear standard girdles and
brassieres or an all-in-one gar
ment. These should be of a curve
molding design with added con-
troll at the bust, waist or hip as
indicated by your individual figure
problems.
The best foundation for dress
and evening wear is the all-in-
one. Possible exceptions: Teen
and Junior f1gures.) This type OF
garment with or without straps
has the virtue of a slim, unbroken
line under sleek, figure-revealing
dresses.
There's no question about it
the woman who is smart about
her figure always looks smart in
her clothes! The middle of sum-
mer is no time to try to disprove
this theory, either. These are the
days when you should use every
means at your command to refine
your figure to conform to the
straight-hung fall clothes that are
sure-as-shootin' coming your way.

In recent weeks Atty. Maxwell
Thompson was one Of several dele.

ISOLATION meet in Ft. Lauderdale rep
resenting Elks Lo d & in

hamas. Their big mission was to
SELL the convention the idea Of
Nassau for it's 1851 meeting. Their
mission successfully accomplished
they returned to their city to ar
range and prepare for the event.
It is no secret that since Nassau
has aligned itself and become active
with the fraternal, sporting and re-
ligious activities Of the people in
Florida. the most elaborate meetings
were conducted in Nassau. 3j
Many good reasons may be adj
vanced for these fine meetings when
held in the island city Of Nassau,
but by far, the big reason can be
traced to the untiring efforts Of sew
eral of the broad visioned and open
hearted men and women Of Nassau
who during the past Is years have
given their time, talent and ener-
gies in promoting a spirit Of good
will, friendliness and understanding
between the people of Florida and
the Bahamas.
In this article, the first Of a
series, we present to you one OF
these men. Attorney Maxwell j.
Thompson.
Thompson received his early edu-
cation at the Boys Central School
and the Diocesan High School at
Nassau and later was tutored by
private instructors from England in
his pre-legal studies. During his
legal training he studied under the
supervision Of the Hon. Eric Halli-
nan who at that time was serving
as attorney general for the Baha-
mas and Chief Justice Oswald Law

ney General. In 1916 he was called
to the bar" Having successfully
passed his bar exams he was ap-
pointed to serve as assistant to the
attorney general and worked in that
capacity for six months. The next

practice and opened his law office

This holder consists of a

of the gown is slipped between

sufficiently flexible so that it

Insure Proper Fit Of Shoes

ll-fitting shoe on the first day in
school can work havoc with the
child's feeling about school and
his relationship to all concerned
with it.
A shoe should protect the child's
feet from injury so it should be
sturdy. It should support his feet
in the right places SO that they
grow perfectly. 1t should be fit

any one spot and make corns that
Will-cause suffering, poor posture
and an ungainly gait. It should
be well made so that it is fairly
waterproof.
A.child should be trained to re-
move his shoes when he is in the
house and put on his slippers
This relieves his feet, lets the
air circulate about them once
more, and saves some of the wear
on them. A child must travel on
his feet for the years of his life

Children suffer from badly fit
ted shoes far more than most
people believe possible. An aching
foot can put the whole being, body
and mind, out of order. A sore
foot can affect a child's sight, dull
his hearing and slow down all his
reactions to the dull level of the
pain.
It is not easy to fit a child with
the right shoe. He loves to get
new shoes. Something about a
pair of new shiny ones seems to
brighten his whole outlook. He
wants them right away and he
wants to wear them out of the
shop. He will say, mo. They
don't hurt" in answer to the anx-
ious questions of his mother and
the salesman. He will say they
don't hurt. they are just right

dresses will do a lot to usher in
the new fashion season. He also
suggest you clip your fur ascot
with a jeweled pin to add a lot
more fashionableness to your slim
tailleur.
A great use is made of bankers
gray often combined with white
ermine trimming. Ombre shading
in grey, brown and cocoa is also
a Faith favorite this season.
Bloused lines with wide patent
belts, lots of black Persian lamb
trims on coats and suits and coat
Innings matching brilliantly colored
wool dresses underneath are also
widely in evidence.
Big chin-hugging collars seen

cannot seem to wait long enough
to have the salespeople get the
right pair. Only patience and
persistence will succeed in getting
anywhere near the right thing.
In the end we have to depend
upon the salespeople to get the
right ones on him. They will
not be too loose. nor too tight,
neither too long nor too short
but just right-we hope.
Experienced people do not put
new shoes on children who are
going on an all-oay trip. That

time each day for a few days will
do this and will bring any defects

PARIS, France.-Things look
pretty tight at Jacques Faith and
at the same time they looked a
little too theatrical in many in
stances and a bit "jazzy."
The shortest skirts we saw in
the Paris collections were at this
house. And Faiths evening designs
defy you to sit in them. This de-
signing trait is very prevalent we're
beginning to feel amongst a great
many of the French couturiers.
Our only comment on this is that

Two Rhode Island orchid
growers have invented a cor
sage holder which needs no
pins. This should prove in
teresting to wearers of strap
less evening gowns.
John F. Hird and I. Warren
Gorham, jr., combined forces
after graduating from Rhode
Island State College, where
they had done experimental
work in orchid growing. They
now have a small greenhouse
and the idea for this new
gadget was born while they
were making orchid corsages
for their Spouses.
They claimed the making of
corSages was simple, but if
they were to be worn with
straplesS gowns it became nee
essary to evolve some type of
fastener. They devised q
method of attaching the cor
sage with pipe cleaners, which
worked out fine. In fact, as
the story goes, the new hold
ers created such q Juror at

the issue of the plunging neckline,
Faith doesn't. And how they plunge
downward.
Other Faith f1ipperies for Fall in
clude short sleeves on slim wool
ems with big fur cuffs, big bows
for trimming and pleated chiffon
scarfs trailing through belts.
Two evening outfits stand out:
A dress of black net and velvet
with tiny rhinestone straps, and
the Red Shoes" outfit of teal blue
and red heavy satin. This one a
striking evening costume that the
model could barely walk in. A
leading Washington fashion store
has bought this.
But our overall impression is
that many of Faiths fall designs
were a bit overdone and loaded
with too many spangles and stuff
like that there.

See If you can solve this riddle!
What is it that makes you feel
tired, takes the sparkle from your
personality. pulls your mouth
down at the corners. may even
make you droop in posture, makes
you irritable, makes you depress-
ing to others, can even affect your
health?
Look in the next line for the
answer.
BOREDOM!
Boredom can throw dull haze
over all of life for you. 1t can
cause you to miss the everyday
beauty all about you. It kills en-
thusiaSm and zest. 1t makes you
unconscious of the beauty of the
gorgeous foliage of fall, the beauty
of a sunset, the zip of crisp frosty
air, the melancholy romance OF
q tropical moon.
Boredom in you makes you dull
to others. You act as a wet
blanket thrown over them. If you
are bored you cannot even light
up with the interests of others.
Boredom probably kills more hap
pineSs than any other one emo
tional or mental quality.
Boredom is also dangerous to
you. 1t can lead to deep melan-
choly. 1t slows up the glands as
do all depressing emotions and
thoughts while eager interest,
laughter, humor and enthusiasm
smooth the glandular system into
fine performance and lift the cor
ners of the mouth. Boredom can
cause poor health and skin trou-
bles.
