By Mary Grelner Kelly (In Washington Post) Women are sentimentalists when It comes to drinking liquor. Fancy namea and pretty colors usually mean more to them than content. But with bargain-bunting proclivities and femi nine curiosity as their guides, they bid fair to outstep their brothers m discriminating choices. This symposium ol opinion comes from 29 cocktail room captains, liquor store operators and cafe managers In terviewed on the subject recently. AH confessed they had run the gamut of feminine interrogation during the past seven weeks since repeal. Asserting the average woman se lects her cocktail because of senti mental associations, Austin Peterson, manager of Child's Gingham Club, with a twinkle in his eye, describes the process. "A woman goes down the cocktail list as though the selection of a drink were her life work. Invariably, there is the flutter of an eyelash at the word Orange Blossom, She gives fur ther pause to such names as Old Fashioned, Paradise and Pink Lady. Then she ends up by taking a dry martini or a whisky sour." Am to their bargain-hunting tend' Liquor Store on Fourteenth street, has this to say: "Quantity and low price are what women look for at the liquor store. Saturday afternoon, women comprise the majority of the liquor atore ous- tomers, so we have to offer bargains on that day to please them. Preferring mixtures to straight drinks, they are content with whisky blends. If they get enough of It for their money. Don't Ask for Bonded "With the hundreds of women cus tomers who have purchased liquor since repeal, I have never heard one ask for bonded whisky. It Isn't cheap enough. Men, on the other hand, al ways call for bonded stuff If they have the price. They drink it straight and know the difference." Discriminating? Feminine curiosity makes them Just that, when they come to a liquor store, counter-chal lenges Manager A. H. Berman, of the Famous Brands, inc., on h, screen. Catering to feminine patronage always keeps a stock of complimentary nov elties on hand for women customers. "Women are never ashamed of ask ing questions about liquor," he said, "They want to know everything there Is to know before they make their purchases. Consequently, they are finding out more about the better class goods than men win ever Know, The fine Bacardi rum and Imported vermouths are purohased in greater quantities by women than men. cock tail parties, taking the Place or teas, are turning women into true con noisseurs." Love of variety prompts women to sample all the new concoctions offer ed in the cocktail salons, according to proprietors. But nrsc, iney must anew the contents. Between sips, tney an alyze and question. They leave know ing the recipe. Fancy names, pretty colors, myster ious blends are also a. challenge to the feminine Imagination, and, to a certain extent, guarantee the popu larity of those operators who cater to women's trade. Says M- Qulspel. captain of the at tractive Wlllard Hotel Bamboo Room Go for Artistic Drinks "Women are becoming our best cus tomers. But we have to serve them ertletlc drinks. If a cocktail it at once beautiful to look at and pleasant to the palate, our women patrons are satisfied." D. G. Lam, manager of the Lotus Club finds women also appreciate fla vor. Women patrons at his place order Old Fashioneds more often than any other cocktail, he says. "That Is because It la sweet and flavorful," he explained, "Women are partial to sweet, light, aromatic drinks. They prefer mixtures 10 straight liquor. For that reason, they are our best cocktail customers.- CROWN ARIZONA COED QUEEN 4 f I TRIO OF NEW SEA !

By Aloes' Berthinet (United Pre-M Staff Correspondent) NEW YORK.

Myers, assistant curator, division of fishes, of the TJ. 8. National Museum, the first has been named Jonnaonin eri- omma. It U the "big ay" Each eye u about one-fifth as long aa the diameter of the body, A ma' eye, in the same ratio, would be about a foot long and about eight Inches high. In addition, this creature baa two false ayes on 11a aids near the- tall. False Byet Utrteaa they are Intended to deceive tbe creature's enemies, the purpose of these falae eyes Is not known. Their existence would not haw been detect ed had It not been for a painting of th fish by Eli CheverJanga .artist- of the Johnson -Smithsonian Deep Sea expedition, as eooa as It aa dragged from depth of some ISO or 300 fathoms. Incidentally, at such a depth, which la Jtwfc about on the borderline of eternal darkaeas,. eyes would be of JJttSe serv&e to an ani mal. Only one other such "eye-fish" has been discovered about a oa.it a century ago.

A ftah, which, la known to aclen-i tlsts aa the lantern group, constitutes the third saw species. These are small : minnow-like creatures who Jive only In the open ocean, for from, any land and are never found near the bot tom. Doubtless, millions of them live and die in the sea, with no knowledge that there exists shore or bottom to the- ocean. When seen in the day, they resemble the lighted portholes of a ship. All have row of luminous spots along their aides which, ft is believed, serve aa "recognition marks lit the briny depth. ASMS VIOLATED IS RUUKB PORTLAND, May S.
