As soon as the sun shines warm for a few days the call of the great out-of-doors' is strongly felt, and immediately beach parties are planned and trips East are arranged. Many of the smart set are preparing to pass Easter out of town. and others, who remain at home, will prepare Easter wardrobes, in anticipa tion of the girls and boys who soon will be home from the East on their lonsr Summer vacations. Gowns and hats will assume the im portant place in milady's plans for the day, house-cleaning also fits in admir ably during the close of the penitential season, so that, with the proper amount of exercise, which is a regular part of the schedule for the forenoon, and is taken by gardening or horseback rid ing, and the countless other duties, the average- society woman has little time for social functions of any size at present. Mr. and Mrs. Paul Kroehlich are among those who have planned East ern trips, expecting to leave within a fortnight for New York, and the James II. Murphys will soon leave for a short visit in their cottage at Gearhart. Another bride-elect has been added, to the list of "June brides" in Miss Jean Koy Laing. who will become the brile of Lester L. Carter, of Han Fran cis. The engagement of the young people was announced Saturday at a charming luncheon presided over by the bride-elecfs sisler-In-law. Mrs. John A.

She is a graduate of the State Normal Col lege at Albany, and has been doing pedagogical work in this city. She is very popular socially, and the wedding, which is scheduled for the latter part of June, will be a notable event. Mr. Carter is a graduate of Leland Stanford, Jr., University, and a well known civil engineer. He recently completed the construction of the plant of the Shell Company, near Linnton. He also is popular in social and fra ternity circles. Reed College Drama Club will give an additional performance of "Twelfth Night" this evening so that all those who were unable to see Shakespeare's play presented among true Elizabethan surroundings last week may have an other opportunity.

Twentieth Oa tury Venus. AFTER months of friendly rivalry among the various educational in stitutions of the United States Miss Margaret Willetts, of the Swarthmore College. Pennsylvania, has been ac claimed the most nearly perfect dupli cate of the standard for perfect women of all time, the Greek statue Venus. With the exception of height. Miss Willetts Is practically identical in size to the statue. She lacks but one-tenth of an inch of measuring the 5 feet 4.2 inches prescribed by the Greek goddess of love. She weighs exactly the esti mated 132.2 pounds of Venus. She has the same chest measurement of 34.2 inches and waist measure of 25.9 inches. Due to athletic activity the ankle measurement of the modern Venus exceeds that of her model by two-tenths of an inch, measuring 8.4 inches. Her neck is 12.5. exactly that of the goddess. The discovery of the modern physi cally perfect woman wos the result of a contest among the various colleges for the most nearly perfect "composite Venus." The measurements of all the young women in several colleges were taken and the aggregate was divided by the number of pupils to obtain an average. WelH-sley was the first to claim the honor of producing the com posite model of Venus de Milo. iwarth more. a quiet little Quaker college near Philadelphia, challenged the claim, and not only presented a chart of figures proving that it possessed a more per fect aggregate Venus, but that it boast ed a perfectly formed individual as well. Miss Willetts is a senior in the in stitution. She has won distinction in her classes and is an enthusiastic gym nast. She is fond of out-of-door sports and plays hockey and tennis. She swims and plays basketball. In addition to being the most perfectly formed woman in the school she is the most success ful in all lines of school activities. She is a member of the Kappa Kappa Gam ma fraternity. Miss Willetts is the daughter of E. Robbin Willetts, 219 Greenwood ave nue. Trenton. N. J. She is the descend ant of an old Quaker family that has long been associated with the admin istration of Swarthmore College. The production of model women Is part of the policy of Swarthmore. The aim is not so much to produce beauty for beauty's sake, as that physical beauty is presupposed to be a part of physical health. With this object the school has one definite policy towards work and athletics. Daily exercise is a part of, the day's work. Each stu- oo o o oc, 0 0 0 0 0 Q 0 0 0 0 0 0 Q ( dent must register daily what exer cise she has taken during the day and at what hour she retires. All students who are not afflicted with heart trou ble must learn to swim as part of their college course. These require ments are said to be responsible for the production of the one physically perfect woman and hundreds of others in the institution who lack very little of meeting the same requirements. SjNLAPSfiOTS By Barbara E oyd. - ilrodtTOrk and Handwork. F MY maid would only learn to X. work with her head as well as her hands," sighed a housekeeper, "how much more easily her work would go. But I can't teach her. Yesterday she had practically a holiday. We were all away. It was rather a hurried trip, and I did not have time to map out her work for her. She idled all day, read, slept, really did not do what she should have done. As a result, today she has gone to bed with a sick headache because she has had so much to do that she got all excited, upset and nervous over it. If she had thought about the work, she could have made some pies yesterday for the dessert today, and done some of the sweeping and dusting. But apparently today and its work didn't exist for her; she only saw yesterday with nothing to do." That little maid isn't the only one who is short-sighted in such matters, is she? Many of us are in the same class. We trot around doing the work that is immediately under our hand to do. But we do not think ahead as to how that work might be done to save labor tomorrow or next week, or possibly the very afternoon or even ing of the day we are doing it. Five minutes of headwork might save us five hours of handwork. Yet we do not do these five minutes of headwork. And this thinking what would save doing need not be confined to house keeping. It can enter into everything we do, into the simple duties of life as well as into earning a living. We can so arrange our clothing in one bureau drawer as to have handy what we use first. We can hang our clothing in our cutset so as to get at most easily the garments we use oftenest. Or we can place on certain hooks certain articles, eo there is no searching for them each time we want them. We can so plan our shopping that when we go down town today we can get the embroidery cotton or the waxd paper or the hooks and eyes we know we will need next week. Many of us do not do it. Next week finds us wanting something essential for that week's work, and a second shopping trip is necessary, using up time and energy and money that might have been conserved. We do some work about our house today, which had we thought of it yes terday uiieht have been half done or perhaps altogether done, with but little extra labor, or at any rate with much less than the doing of it today entailed. If we find that we are taking many, many steps, that we are doing certain details of our work over and over again, or finding the burdens of one day heavy and another lisrht. let's apply to these things a little thinking, and see if a few minutes of sound, honest headwork will not eliminate many hours of tiresome, monotonous hand work. It will not at any rate do u any harm to try the experiment, and it may result in much profit. ROAD WORr IS ORDERED Two Miles of Mount Tabor Drives to Be Macadamized at Once. The two miles of drives in Mount Tabqr Park are to be macadamized at once. This was decided yesterday by the City Council when Commissioner Baker was authorized to advertise for bids for furnishins: crushed rock. The improvement was planned for earlier in the year, the rock to be fur nished by the unemployed and by pris oners at Kelly Butte subjail. The un employed broke but very little rock, and the county has refused to give it to the city because of the limited amount broken. This has left the city with the park drives torn up and in need of immediate attention. Commis sioner Baker says he can get rock for $1.19 cents a yard, delivered. This will be about 42 Vi cents a yard less than the usual price, he says. The Council told him to go ahead. Home Destroyed by Fire. CLATSKAME, Or.. April 17. (Spe cial.) The home of P.

' . . . ijjj BOTH 1AKEUP1 COURT STIMPASES FORGIVE EACH OTHER AXD STOl DIVORCE SUIT. Nor WHI "Wlfey" Have Hubby Put in Jail for Threats and Sundry Other Grave Offenses. Arm In arm. George Stumpas and Mrs. Rosa Stumpas strolled into the courtroom of Circuit Judge Morrow yesterday. Arm in arm. it is repeated, despite the fact that George was plain tiff in a suit for divorce pending in an other court. Also in spite of the fact that he was soon to be tried on the criminal charge of attempting to kill his wife. "Judge, it's all right and I don't want a divorce and she don't want me put in Jail," Stumpas declared, addressing the court. In his mind. Judge Morrow reviewed some of the charges Mrs. Stumpas had first made against her husband, and that caused his indictment by the grand jury. He had, it was alleged, appeared at their home at 550 Couch street on February 8, beaten her and threatened her life and that of her child. He originally had forced, her to marry him, she said, by threatening her life. He had also tried to kill their 4-months-old baby, she declared. He is a Greek waiter and she is a Serbian girl of 11 years,, also pretty. All had been arranged for the dis missal of the divorce case, Stumpas told the court yesterday, and he had "made up" with his wife. He asked that the indictment against him be dismissed. Deputy District Attorney Collier was present. Prosecution would be impos sible without the testimony of the wife, and the reconciliation appeared com plete, so he acquiesced to the dismissal. "We will have it all to do over again in three months," he prophesied as the couple hied happily forth. ROSEELLOYD ISTOPLfNER ANOTHER OF FAMOUS ENGLISH SISTERS AT PANT AGES. Marie MunMn. Lowell. Drew and Other Entertainers Make Up Week's Numbers. Another of England's fair daughters. one of the famous family of Lloyds, tops Pantages new bill, and tops it most gracefully and satisfactorily, too. Kosie Lloyd is her name, and she is a sister to the well-known Alice and Marie. Rosie is taller than either of her gifted sjsters, and she is dark of eye and hair, but she has the deliarht- for ARE 1 Sot Cro ful Lloydish smile and an amazing psysical resemblance. Rosie has a lovely voice and a pair of pretty ankles, all of which she shows to splendid advantage. Like her comedienne sis ters, Rosie's act consists of frequent change of frocks and a new song with each change. She has beautiful dresses, and the wardrobe part alone in her act must have cost a mint of money. Rosie sings new songs, for the most part English ballads of popular subject, set to rol licking airs. One about "missing a train" is a vocal riot. She gives the famous Lloyd wink, and, altogether, offers a delight ful act. The entire bill is excellent, in fact. Marion Munson is a protean artist who offers a one-act sketch in which she plays about 15 different roles. She changes her costume, even her hair and head! dress, with each type she portrays, and varies the studies from an Italian girl to an Irish biddy. The transformations excite the greatest en thusiasm, and the clever Miss Munson registers a distinct sensation. Miss Munson is assisted in her little sketch by Hal Forrest, who wrote the lines. Two exceedingly clever folk are Lowell, an eccentric comedian, and Esther Drew. Lowell is a clerk In a drug store and Esther is a pretty Summer girl gwftomer. They exchange a lot of merry persiflage about the stock lr the store, and every time Lowell answers the crazy phone he sends the audience into hysteria with the imaginary conversations he holds. To wind up their act the two dance in delightful style. A pretentious act is offered by Will Mastin and Virgie Richards, a team of colored dancers and vocalists supported by an octet of entertainers in "A. Holi day in Dixie Land." The offering is a cyclonic burst of melody, mirth and whirlwind dancing. , Pealson and Goldie, comedians, offer "After the Dog Show," a series of merry chatter with spots of song which gets over nicely. Knight and Moore, a man and a pretty maid, have a song and dance number. A capital opening act is that of a young Japanese named Harry Tsuda, who is a spherical equilibrist. On top of a huge sphere he balances daringly. The third episode of "The Iron Claw" runs this week. TONG nWAR TRIAL STARTS Alleged Gunman Faces Charge of Killing; Leong 1'in Luck.
