HEDDA HOYT TELLS ! ....about... I FASHIONS for WOMEN I I By Hedda Hoyt (U. P. Fashion Editor) New York. July 18—(UP)—Red and yellow, the colors of the Orient, are sponsored by several smart Fifth Avenue costume establishments this week. The yellow of this season is a distinct dandelion shade and the red combined with it has a slight orange hue. Sports costumes, evening wraps, beach outfits and all types of vacation costumes are being featured in red and yellow color combinations. One shop window is displaying huge yellow shawls of Spanish inspiration printed in bright red futuristic designs. In the same window, sports frocks of yellow silk and flannel are shown with red shoes, hats, shoulder bandanas and belts as accompaniments. Afternoon gowns with yellow backgrounds figured in small red designs are shown in several shops. Evening gowns of yellow chiffon with bright red shoulder flowers are sponsored by one specialty shop. Smarter, to my mind, than the combination <>f red and yellow is the combination of beige and red. Many shops are utilizing this icombination at present and it is particularly attractive for sports wear. For insance, the entire brfige costume may be relieved by red kid slippers, hat, scarf, handbag or tiny pocket handkerchief. Several times we have seen red kid shoes with beige ribbon ties worn with beige sports dresses. We have also noted beige bandana neckerchiefs printed in red worn about the shoulders of beige frocks at smart resorts. Powder blue is also one of the outstanding colors at present. Usually this color is used alone although occasionally it is combined with gray. For sportswear it is colorful without being Hastily and for afternon wear the chiffon gown of powder blue is most successful. Pale pinks are popular this summer being used mostly for sports or evening wear. Pale rose-beige shades in frocks and footgear are the only Pinkish shades worn about town by smart women. Blond and nude tones are noted repeatedly for evening occasions and these shades are chosen by smartly dressed women rather than by the multitudes. LONDON’S "NOISE BILL” London.— (UP)-Noise costs the city London about $5,000,000 a week, uncording to a declaration of Professor John Spooner, president of the Polytechnic Engineer Society. Nerve-racking street-drille, the uproar of tramcars and other devastatiog sounds of modern streets, explained Professor Spooner, lowers efficiency in offices and causes nervous complaints. Reduction of noise in commercia] and industrial work is a pay*u« Proposition. Mr. and Mrs. Paul Edwards and •laughter, Patsy Rose, spent Sunday at Lake Webster and Lake Wawasee.

Guinea Pigs Are Pigs Man Learns In Making A Sight-Unseen Trade Greensburg, Ind., July 18 —(16S) — Pigs may be pigs, but not for trading purposes, according to Charles Benefiel, of this city. Benefiel entered into a trade with Charles M. McGee, whereby McGee was to give two porkers which he was supposed to possess for a watch owned by Benefiel. When asked concerning the quality of his pigs the owner

denied any knowledge of pigs in general, but assured his prospect they - were healthy, vigorous animals. When Benefiel arrived to take charge of his livestock he balked at the legality of “pigs is pigs" because in this case “pigs was guinea pigs.” But the trade stuck. 0 Ladies, Gents, Childrens hair cutting, price 30c, every day except Saturday.

All in the Day’s Work Service is a word whose honesty has been dulled by recent popularity. Because it sounds well, it has been used lightly as a catchword to mean anything and everything—and nothing at all. The torch of service has been adopted by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) as its symbol and the word Service has been taken as its creed b< cause the whole purpose of this organization is summed up in that one word. Used by this Company, the word has a very definite meaning, retaining all its original rugged strength. The dictionary defines service as “any work performed for the benefit of another.” To the employes of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) service is a word full of genuine meaning because it stands for work actually performed for the benefit of the people of the Middle West. There is no mention of remuneration in their definition of service—no thought of doing so much work to get so much pay. They know that in this Company the rewards of work are fair. Employes of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) are interested in their jobs— happy to be doing helpful work proud of their part in the modem busy scheme of things. Motorists are aware of this attitude. It is one of the reasons they watch for the familiar signs of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) on the highways of the Middle West. They know that wherever they see one of those signs they will receive the attention of a man who is interested in satisfying their needs to the best of his ability. Evidences that employes of this Company have an earnest desire to be helpful are vividly presented in appreciative letters from those served. Stories of unusual service are frequently brought to light. Or. W. C. Wolverton, of the Wolverton Hospital at Linton, North Dakota, recently reported an extraordinary incident. Because he was a physician and in need of his car at any minute of the twenty-four hours, Mr E. E. Long, Field Representative and Mr. John Withers, Lubrication Engineer for the Standard Oil Company (Indiana ) at Linton, volunteered to fix his car. for him in an emergency and worked all night, finishing the job at 5:15 A. M.! But for the Doctor’s letter, the home office might never have heard of the incident. In an emergency situation these men came to the rescue. It was "all in the day’s work.” Not required of them— or expected— but simply a chance to put the creed of service of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) into • action. Wherever you travel —in any of the ten states of the Middle West—you’ll find men who work with that spirit— men of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) who are carrying on a fine traditionfinding daily satisfaction in performing work for the benefit of others—real service.
