cially since this year's weather has

Hot weather clothes emphasize
the urt of looking (root. Now modes
crystal Ne the importance of de
tails. Collars, waistlines and the

important. Mrs. Harry Payne Whit

that had Its three graduated tiers
all scalloped in points, Hs ruffled

Dame Fashion No Longer Unruffled
Huffles, ever very feminine, are
increasing their scope. Mrs.
Charles Armory's modernistic
, rinted silk troek had a ruffled
iu...',r not unlike the bertha of yes
teryeur, save that it rounded lower
In front over a lovely lace vestee.
Sleeveless frocks were divided
fifty-fifty between one-piece tyiea
and two-piece ones. Mrs. Charles
S. Payson, the former Joan Whit

TLx Moman's 2as
BY ALLENE
Hahe Jiuth, not so many weeks
ago, sent a note of sympathy to his
kid worshippers iu the hospital
who were taught in Ihe ram stam
pede in the Yank stadium. He
postscripted, "Mrs. Kuth sends her
love and will visit you. too."
President Hoover sent several
hundred notes and wires of sym
pathy and congratulation recently,
and In each of them he mentioned
that '"Mrs. Hoover Joins me lu con
gratulations," or sympathy, as the
cuse might be.
The job of public wives is In
finitely more important today than
in the days when some of our first
presidents referred to first ladies
as "the woman who runs the
house." and who no more dream
ed that (heir wives shared in their
public station than that airplanes
would some tlay dot the sky.
Daddy's Toys.
A five-million-dollar toy fund for
children's institutions is being es
tablished by notorious "Daddy"
Hrownlng of "Peaches" fame. The
plan is to main tain a toy office
with about a thousand sample toys
on display from which representa
tives of various child institutions
cull choose those they need.
And "Daddy" will probably learn
thai the tastes of the human
species are so warped that he
want get m-ur the attention on
this truly laudable venture ns he
diil in his sensational marriage und
divorce which much more appeal
ed lo public appetite and taste.
"And Coffee?"
One of our largest railroads Is
replacing its men waiters wilh girls.
The superinten lent of the line ex
plains that t lie move is in order
with the company's desires to cater
to women.
Gicine Women waitresses rather
than v hi tem it h funny wav in
which to appeal to feminine taste.
Most of us prefer a waiter.

Art of Looking Cool
of Sleeves Important to Mode
Mrs.
quite full with four inverted triple
box pleats. A flat crepe blouse, long
sleeved, exactly mulched, uud her
yellow mushroom straw hat had
darker tones facing it. She wore
polka dotted T-sliape sandals and
carried a sports envelope purse.
Little Iris, clinging to her mamma,
wore a delectable little outfit with
hand-worked flowers Iu dainty ar
ray. White hats increase their num
bers and, in some instances, their
size. Mrs. William deKham wore
quite a large one, of silky trans
parent straw, wired to considerable
width all around. It had velvet
haudiugs and two streamers, quite
iil.iieuping with the modernistic
Incrustations of color decorating
the jumper of her two-piece sports
frock.
Pleated Hats Have Place in the
Mode
Pleats have increased their pres
tige until they have gone to Mi
lady's head. I noted several hats
pleated on one or both sides to give
jaunty originality. Hetty Miss's
checked Paris meme hat t la red oft

SUMNER
insisting that modern women can
do anything a man can and more
comes un occasional discordant
note. This time it comes from the
Kentucky Education association
which is Investigating the damage
done girl athletes by playing bas
ketball under boys' rules. This
association quotes the women's di
vision of the National Amateur
Athletic Federation of America as
recently saying that it was "alarm
ed at the undesirable trends devel
oping in athletics for girls."
You can t deny, however, that
an era which permits girls to be
more men like than any preceding
is producing some pretty sound
specimens of womanhood.
"Here You Are, Lady!"
"You are so low you could creep
under a worm with a top hat on."
This is just a sample of her hus
band's nifty wise cracks as quoted
to the judge by Mrs. Claire Mc
Killips of New York when asking
for a separation. She cited other
favorite spousely wise cracks.
While we are continuously hear
ing ridiculous divorce charges, (hit-
one of wise cracking seems as im
portant to me as non-support or
any form of cruelty.
If I were a judge, the mere
whiff of a wise crack like that
would make me haul out with n
flourish my prettiest gold-ed-d
divorce to award to the one wise
cracked at.
