Court Imposes Truce
In Tenancy HostiIities
OF Deweys and CIarks

The DeWeys and the Clarks
have agreed to a truce in any out
of-court hostilities involving the
tenancy of Mrs. Shannon Clark S
fashionable apartment house at
$500 Massachusetts, avenue NV.
Mrs. Clark, wife of Rear Ad-
miral Joseph j. ".Jocko" Clark,
naval war hero, long has been
engaged in litigation to evict
George B. Dewey. descendant of
the hero of Manila Bay, from his
suite in the apartment building.
The eviction suit itself is being
studied by the United States
Court of Appeals. Side-issue
claims and counter claims, charg-
ing misconduct on both sides,
prompted the truce order signed
yesterday by Judge Richmond B.
Keech.
Under the agreement drawn by
opposing counsel Mrs. Clark was
enjoined from:
"Forcibly' entering the Dewey
apartment; "accosting, molesting
or interfering in any way" with
the free ingress or egress" of Mr..
Dewey and his visitors, and per-
mitting any act which will "un-
reasonably interfere" with Mr..
Dewey's peaceful occupation and
enjoyment" of his apartment.
At the same time, Mr.. Dewey
was enjoined from:
Using his apartment in "dis-
orderly or noisy manner" habitu-
ALLY having visitors except at
reasonable hours" and when such
visitors conduct themselves in an
orderly and peaceful manner;
"molesting or interfering with
any of Mrs. Clark's guests or en-
|ployes, and preventing any efforts
by Mrs. Clark to have reasonable
repairs made on the plumbing,
wiring or heating.
One of Mr.. Dewey's visitors,
Miss Selma O. Sinclair, recently
sued Admiral Clark, charging he
assaulted her in the building
lobby. The admiral countered
that this was untrue and accused
Miss Sinclair of creating disturb
anceS in the building.

Woman Awarded $3.50
On Wedding Photo Use

A District Court jury yesterday
awarded a total of $2,750 damages
to an attractive brunette house
wife on her complaint that a
photo studio here used her we'd
ding picture in telephone book
advertisement without her con-
sent.
Mrs. Patricia M. Bokesch, %,
former Washington resident, now
of Youngstown, Ohio, complained
that the Sterling Studio, and the
Chesapeake and Potomac Tele-
phone Co., invaded her privacy by
using the photograph.
She said the studio, formerly
located in the 1900 block of F
street NV, made the photo early
in 1916.
The award, returned before
Judge Jennings Bailey, was di-
vided into $3.50 compensatory
damages against both defendants,
and $4,000 as punitive damages
against the studio alone.
Attorneys Louis Ginberg and
Dorsey K. Offutt represented Mrs.
Bokesch.

YOU MAY NOT be a genius at
arithmetic, but even the girl who
can't add up a checkbook stub can
add up the benefits of proper pos
ture.
You've all seen women who walk
into room with grace and poise-
you've all noticed how heads turn to
watch such woman-you've all seen
the admiring glances. And by con-
trast, who ever pays any attention
to the self-conscious little mouse
scuttling nervously about? Which
woman would you rather be? 1t can
all depend on your posture.
Stand Gracefully
When you find that you must stand
for any length of time, or if you just
want to learn to stand gracefully,
there are several helpful tricks you
can practice. 1t is rare that we see
a straight neck, these days, and
head carried well and high, yet these
are the trademarks of good stance.
If you have a coat with large fur
collar, that collar has tendency to
push your head forward. The result
will be most unattractive do
wager's hump" To eradicate any
possibility of this and keep an easy
straight neckline, pay attention to
the habitual position of your head
and use the following exercises:
1. Stand erect. Place the hands on
the back of the head, let the chin
drop forward on chest, relax should
ers forward.
2. Pull head slowly upward, using
resistance of back neck muscles, I'M
til head and elbows are pulled well
back. Repeat is to 20 times.
1. Stand without tension in lower
back, shoulders, neck or arms.
g. Drop head forward on chest,
raise upward.
8. Make circle with the head

Many foot troubles arose from
short socks and shoes that were not
fitted, the merchants pointed out.
In buying shoes it is best to have the
wearer fitted by the salesman. The
merchants stated they would well
come the opportunity to discuss with
the buyer the merchandise that
didn't prove satisfactory. They did
specify that merchandise should be
used for purpose it was intended and
not misused.
The discussion was spirited. Miss
Lora Hilyard, extension clothing spe-
cialist and chairman, wrote specific
points on the blackboard and helped
direct the discussion.
This meeting was the second one
held this club year on the topic. A
training meeting for clothing leaders
was held in early December.
Seek More Information
During January the leaders spoke
to their club members and wrote
down views expressed by the wom-
en- of their communities. This meet
ing with merchants arose because the
women thought that storekeepers
should know what they wanted.
AS a result of this meeting with
merchants the women find they need
to know more about buying shoes
and hose. The merchants have al
ready stated they will be glad to
meet with the women again and dis
cuss buying practices.
Leaders from 10 county home dem
onstration clubs took part in the dis
cussion with the several merchants
who were present.

Mothers, Merchants Meet

BUYING PROBLEMS in children's
clothing was the topic discussed by
merchants and clothing leaders in
the Homemakers clubs of Rosebud
county at countrywide meeting.
This was the first time the wom-
en- had a chance to tell the mer-
chants what they would like.
They asked: Why can't we have
standardized sizes in ready-to-wear
and the same sizes in commercial
patterns? Why can't there be per-
manent size marks on underwear
and socks so that when. there are
several children in the same family,
Jackie can easily pick out his under
wear from Sunny's?
The women also stated that snow
suits that fit had caps that were too
small.
Too Childlike
They stressed the fact that the
sub-teen dresses were too childlike.
They lamented the fact that overalls
that fit around the 'tummy" for
small boys were too long.
The merchants explained chubby
sizes and the difficulty of carrying
them in small town store. They
told about their special order serv-
ice and how they could get two gar
ments just alike and the same size

carry them with a small stock.
The merchants stated that women
would be more satisfied with their
buying if they brought the children
in to be fitted. If this was not pos
sible the women should know the
necessary measurements and buy by
size and not by age specifications.

It takes skill to walk properly. Yet
if you walk correctly, you will have

again when you are standing cor
rectly. Almost an inch more on the
tape measure. Take the same meas
urements before and after, on your
observation-disclosures an inch has been

Walk Correctly
Now you are ready to walk COR

straight forward, the knees just

Walk around the room, checking each
time you go by the mirror to be sure

Common walking errors that every
woman who wants to be beautiful
should watch for and avoid are these:
Walking with your spine curved and
your derriere protruding; walking
with your chin leading you; walking
out with a mannish, exaggerated
stride. Any one of these is absolutely
fatal, if you would be lovely and
poised in appearance.
Have you ever seen woman who
impressed you as being graceful and
charming without knowing exactly
why you thought her so? In most
cases, she will be a woman who
knows how to walk into a room,
choose a chair and sit down in it
calmly. Then she sits quietly, with
out fidgeting, in a graceful position.
Her hands and her feet are under
control She neither makes nervous
gestures with her hands nor shuffles
her feet uncomfortably. And she is
lovely to watch.
To practice sitting is one of the
first steps, if you would be con-
sidered such woman. Use a straight
chair-walk to it, turn, and lower
your body from the hips, keeping
the back straight. Now, rise slowly
from the chair keeping your torso
from the waist up perfectly straight
with the head well back. Assume
