HERE’S A PAINLESS WAY TO GET YOUR FACE ‘LIFTED’
WEDDING | THRILLS CAPITAL Woman Who Praised Looks of John W. Davis to Marry. By Flora G. Orr, Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April 4.—Washington was thrilled when friends received unconventional -wedding invitations from Mrs. Izetta Jewel Brown and Prof. ( Hugh Miller of Union College, Schenectady. They read: “Izelta Jewel Brown and Hugh Miller invite you to their wedding in Old Georgetown, 3300 O St., noon, Saturday, April 16. Please reply." Jzetta Jewel Brown holds a unique place in Washington. Some years ago, as Izetta Jewel, she was a popular leading lady in a local stock company. She married a Democratic Congressman from West Virginia, William B. Brown, and applied tyer talents to the business of being a Washington society hostess. Her marriage marked the beginning of an interest in politics and when her husband died, he soon found that running the big farm at Kingwood, W. Va., did not take all her time. So she began to sit in on party counEils. ' Praised Davis As she was trained in dramatics, and made a pleasing platform appearance, she was in great demand as a spefAer. She seconded the nomination of John W. Davis for President at the Democratic convention in San-Francisco in 1920. In nominating Mr. Davis, Mrs. Brown said among other things that perhaps women wolud be accused of switching their support wholeheartedly to Mr. Davis, because he was so good looking. She said she couldn’t see that it was anything against a man to say that he would fill the office of President of the United States in a graceful, polished, diplomatic way, that he could look as well as act the part, and that he was a gentleman as well as a brainy man. A storm of applause followed her speech, and the band played “You Great Big, Beautiful Doll!” Professor Miller is dean of the engineering school at Union College, Schenectady. He has two sons in Pfinceton University. Mrs. Brown has one little daughter. John Is Home The Coolldges have a house guest at 15 DuPont Circle, Walter Brown of Toledo. Their son, John, is also with them for the Easter holidays from Amherst College. John has been seen frequently on the bridle y?aths in Rock Creek and Potomac Varks. ™ Mrs. Coolidge is continuing her custom Os giving sma'l afternoon musioalea. The great pianist, Rachmaninoff, played for a few guests at the temporary White House. Mrs. Coolidge attended the Rachmaninoff concert, also the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra concert, and was a first nighter at a box party at the theater where an allstar caat Is presenting "Trelawney of the Wells.” President Coolidge does not attend the theater often and seldom sits through an entire performance. BROKEN SKIRT-LINE Tiers, ruffles and flounces all feature spring in the skirts of new dresses of printed crepe. But they are all pleated instead of gathered to maintain the slim silhouette. LACE COATS Lace has come into favor again. .Underwear uses it. Dresses use it. And now the latest afternoon gowns have gorgeous coats over them of sheer lace colored to match them.

Well, you can have it! Here’s how! The Times wants to find the prettiest hat imaginable for the lady in the picture to wear.

The hat must not cost more than S2O complete. The Times will have the hat made for the winner by a competent Indianapolis milliner in time to wear Easter Sunday. The judges will be Miss Mabel Rose. 1064 W. Thirty-sixth St.; Mrs. Nellie Meith, 3237 N. New Jersey St., and Mrs. Bernice Moore, 3125 K.

The contest closes at midnight April 9, and no hat designs received after that date will be considered. This contest is not for artists. Any woman knows a good looking hat when she sees one. Professional milliners are barred.
Read This Before You Go to Work! By Henri Bendel v Noted Fashion Expert of New York Written Exclusively for NEA Service, Inc., and The Times Consider the woman who is to wear the hat. This is the very first precept to be learned in hat making or hat buying. Then consider the hat itself. The wise woman pays no attention to the allurements of millinery until the hat is on her own head. Then she sits up as a judge and gets justice for her face, if not mercy. She rests the case on her own critical sense, and in giving the final verdict she turns thumbs-down on the most marvelous French creation, if the brim is a quarter of an inch too narrow. * The wise woman will not let color divert her attention from quality Nor will she let trimming divert her from structure. In choosing a hat for street or sport wear the modern woman aims to a'chieve smartness. She does not try to Hatter her face with tricky brims or obvious trims. Keeps Sleek Line She outlines the shape of her head very cleanly so that it looks sleek and small. Her hat comes well over her forehead and covers her hairline in the back. Both very large brims and medium brims will be seen for summer wear, but here again you must look to the crown and see that it is fitted just as carefully as if it were the whole sho\V. Only when the crown is absolutely perfect can the brim be added. Crowns are slightly less high and less square than they, were In the winter. They are more gently rounded in the spring chapeaux. Straws and felts are folded, cut out and trimmed to relieve plainness. But the outline is never lost. When buying a hat, try it before a full-length mirror to get the proper perspective and relation to your figure. Your head must look small, but your hat must not be conspicuously small unless you want to look as if you had run slightly to seed. Some Pointers If you are short, see that your hat does not suggest heaviness. If your shoulders are wide and your neck short, don't wear u huge-

brimmed hat unless you want to double for a mushroom. If you have delicate features, avoid the massive hat. If your features are heavy, resist lacy effects and perky bows. Make your hat agree with your structure. Unless you are very artistic do not strive for "artiness.” Some women can wind a bit of oriental silk about their heads, secure it with a jeweled pin, and capture the spirit of the Orient. But most of them can NOT. Be Careful! Be careful of the colors you put next your face, and of the shadows a brim may cast over your features. The woman with dark clear eyes can peer up fascinatingly from a very ‘severely down-turned brim. But the light woman whose eyes are not prominent finds the upturned brim more flattering. Matching dresses and hats are very effective if an odd or bright colored dress is selected. Turbans and brimless hats for spring are very chic, but they must not suggest the amateur. Straws and fabric hats are stressed and will probably be almost as popular as felts. Ribbons, pins, some flowers and appliqued effects are smart as trimming. Many hats are untrimmed.

When You Are Serene, Sweet Natured, Optimistic You Won’t Need Facial Operation, Says Martha Lee. By Martha Lee Dues your face need “lifting?’’ Y’e hear a lot about this process these days. Many prominent stage and society folks, including some men, are said to have taken years off their appearance by having a surgeon “lift” their features.
The process is painful and extremely expensive. There is, however, a fuce-lifting operation guaranteed to give results which is without pain or risk and has the added advantage of exerting a kindly mental influence upon both patient and observers, while it is taking place. Tho process deals with the twentyfour pairs of opposing face muscles, which constantly register your mood. When you are disgusted, harried, grouchy, sullen or morose, down go those muscles. You look your age —every day of it. When you are serene, sweetnatured, optimistic, loving, the facial muscles pull upward. You look young. If you keep these/muscles on an upward trend, never letting d&*vn in ill-nature, the “face lifting process wiil soon take effect and people are going to say after awhile: “What have you been doing to yourself? You're looking so young!”Too Much Housework Pear Martha bee: I am a young Kiri, but sometimes 1 feel like an old woman. I keep house for my father and my two brothers, attd while I don't have heavy housework to do, as we have some help rome in. I have the responsibility-feeling. I don't have rnueh that i interestinsr liesides this housekeeping, though. and the other day somebody asked rav father when he and I wero out together if I was his wife. , „ 1 haven’t a very good disposition anywav. and that sun- made me mad. and I have felt awful old-looking ever since. I am 18. DISCOURAGED MARIE LOUISE. Don’t feel too bad about that per-
son’s question, dear girl, for it may not have implied what you think. A lot of old and middle-aged men have young wives, so this person's question was legitimate. You say you have not a good disposition. That’s something that needs correcting—both it and your belief that you have it. If you scowl and look unpleasant, your face will take on downward curving, unpleasant lines. A young girl (and older ones, too, for that matter) can always look sweet and inetresting, even lacking beauty, if she will take the trouble to have pleasant thoughts. These will show through. Wants to Quit Kissing Dear Martha Lee: I am almost 18 years old. I want to ask you what 1 can do about kissing. I am going with a fellow and at first T absolutely refused to kiss him. Well he begged so hard that I finally did and now it s got so it is a habit and I am afraid 1 11 hurt his feelings and he'll think I don't like him if 2 try to quit now. I feel wrong about doing so mueh of this necking, but how can f quite without making him misunderstand and maybe getting the idea 1 don't care for him? FRANKIE. Well, explain to him, just as you have to me, how and why you want to quit the excessive petting. He won't misunderstand if you are perfectly frank. I think he’ll respect your feeling about it. Men Not All Bad Pear Miss Faithful Reader: Purity in fact and appearance is the greatest power of woman. There are many worthy men.

A CONSTANT MAN READER. The above letter is from a man who explains that he wants the girl who wrote in a few days ago, discouraged with men, “to know that there are a few true men.” Shall She Leave Him? Rear Martha Lee: I know you will tell me what to do. My husband and t have been married for nine years anil have one child. We have been nappy—or I thought so but now he says he does not love- me any more. X have found out that lie has hern keeping company with some woman.
