TEACHING PARENTS WHEN TO FUNCTION IS HARD, SUE SAYS Local Girl Writes llene in Paris of Differences With Her Mother on the Question of Clothes, Cocktails and Cigarets.

Q jljiiMAS You know what I wrote you about pursuing serenity? AVell, darling, it was all wet, because I had grippe all the time! *L didn’t take it seriously, though, and now I’m back to a strenuous normalcy again. Outside of two weddings, a concert, two theatrical openings, a tea, and some luncheons, I’ve had practically nothing to do this week. Marjorie Roomier had trick wedding presents. After the reception at the Propylaeum, Mr. and Mrs. Roeinler celebrated their own twen-ty-fifth wedding anniversary witli a dinner party at tl.eir home and we saw Marjorie’s presents. Complete sets of colored glass, etched mirrors, smoking accoutrements, gorgeous silver, the Heritage pattern, i— —1 HEN Sunday afternoon Mrs. IT I Jack Harding and I heard I 1 J Tito Schipa. And, llene!, H’s accompanist was cute looking and twenty-three. Airs, lluueisen and Mrs. Jack Eaglesfield were there, and |dr. and Mrs. Henry Hornbrook, yes, they've just returned from Hawaii, and Dr. and Mrs. Page of course; Airs. Xfobert Rhoads, Airs. Charles Sommers, Mrs. B. A. Richardson. Husbands were conspicuously absent. Sohipa’s program was so consistently lyrical, saccharine, and John AlcCormack, that when Echaniz, his accompanist, dashed into a harsh, dissonant modern thing of Scriabin's for his first encore, the relief was magical. Why, honestly, llene, for encores Schipa sang things about “When My Dreams Come True’’ and "When You're in Love With Someone!’’ And then, my dear, “Trelawny of the Wells.” It was gorgeous! Absolutely everybody was there anil all in evening clothes and we sat in the secohd row! I could enjoy and play under those conditions, darling, couldn’t you? Os course, John Drew was simply sweet, and Peggy Wood has a lovely nose, and there’s nothing so positively thrilling as Rollo Peter's hair —but then you expect that. What was really gratifying was that I saw actually everybody I knew and they saw me! Just wait till I tell you who all was there. R. AND MRS. NICHOLSON U sat right In. front of Us: Mrs. Hortense Burpee and her brother, Dr. and Airs. Wright, Air. and Mrs. Goodman, Mr. and Mrs Clemens Mueller, and Miss Norma Mueller, Mr. and Airs. Fred Ayres, j Mrs. Jameson and Booth, • Irving Fauvre, Airs. J. I. Holcomb and her ;daughter, Airs. Strickland. It was so exciting, dear, and I wore my new evening gown which mother and 1 nearly parted forever over, because she said it was too diaphanous or something like that, and really llene, 'I was so annoyed! Do you have trouble with the .older generation I have great difficulty in teaching mine just where and when to function. And really, if dear, about the big important things 'of life like clothes and cocktails and ;cigarets one has to make decisions for one's self, don't you think? Well, was quite upset about my ..evening gown, which is a love of a •thing. llene, Lanvin did it, composed mainly of three layers of or•chid chiffon, each, one getting lighter and shorter. Now I ask you: Who •ever heard of wearing a petticoat? .Why, they weren't even 'done in the Egyptian friezes, were they? I had to speak very seriously ito mother about the anti-climaxes ,she used to wear in the hjjly name •of fashion—in v the bustle-shoulder fknot-modesty-headdress-corset era—./before I could bring her to reason! UT oh, my dear. The funniest thing I about ever saw happened at the Player’s Club last Friday night!

their-little playlet, that the resultant percussion awoke echoes in the Little Theatre Playhouse that won't be lived down for years! They had rehearsed their play fully garbed, it seems, but the night of the performance the young lady was in a stunning evening gown and I guess it makes a lot of difference about whacking peoples backs whether they have on street clothes or not. Anyway the audience rocked witTt mirth for five solid minutes before they got quieted down! No, I positively won’t tell •'’you who they are. That’s too much! llene, your letters are sartorial inspirations, dear. After every one I set about refurnishing the wardrobe with renewed zest. I think father thinks the bills are getting a little large, but your descriptions are so tempting. Love to you always—l hope you’re getting a big kick out of Spain.

Cites Danger of Thumb Sucking II u l ill ted Prefix DES MOINES, lowa, Alay 6. Thumb sucking is a vice for children and should be prevented, Dr. Wesley C. Darby told the lowa dental convention. Even sinus trouble, so prevalent now adays, can be traced to thumb sucking, the doctor said, “The habit causes serious afflictions in children,” he pointed out. “The gums and jaws are thrown out of their natural position, causing protruding teeth. The sinus is drawn down and narrows the nasal breathing aperture thus making the children mouth breathers. |

QUEEN OF SWEETS ONCE $6-A-WEEK SALESGIRL

Owner of Wholesale Candy Factory Tells How She ' Made Good. Bu SEA Srrrfrc LOS ANGELES, May 6.—One day, a few years ago, a little red-haired, blue-eyed girl took an order for cream wafers in a two-by-four candy shop in Lexington, Ky. “Yes,” she’d be sure to have the order out on time. “No” she would not fail the lady, who waS giving a din per party. > An hour later the owner said he had been called out-of-town and would not have time to fill the order. He departed, leaving behind him a worried, anxious, fast-thinking little salesgirl. “We promised those wafers,” she kept saying to herself. “And the lady is going to have a party. She's just got to have them.’’ Moving cautiously into the kitchen at the back of the shop, where she had often watched confections made, she surveyed the scene. “Why can't I make them?” thought she. And late that afternoon, after many queer-shaped, lopsided, irregular wafers had been made and discarded, she delivered a perfect order to the customer. “And that was the beginning of rny dream come true,” alughed Mar-

garot Reardon, now owner of a wholesale candy factory, and manager of a big retail candy concession in a Los Angeles department store. Two Lessons “Small'as it was, the incident taught me two valuable lessons: one, that an emergency must b emet, not side-stepped; the other, that effort and initiative bring practical returns. The day I delivered those wafers, 1 determined to have my own candy shop—some day.” From a $6-a-week pales job in a small store to ownnership of*a SIOO,-000-a-yeaiV business is an extraordinary achievement fo|j a young in these days of hectic successes. These maxims are partly responsible for it. “Don’t hire i>e‘oplo you have to watch. Once Is Enough “Once. generally speaking, is enough to tell anyone what do do. “Too much money invested often spells, ruin. “The more interest you put into your business, the more success you will get out of it. “Don't worry 1

“If you are compelled to work with people who say disconcerting or belittling things, disregard them. “Criticism can’t stand up long against results. Do your job well. The opposition will soon disappear.” Aliss Reardon is a persistent happiness exponent. Her laughter is frequent and whole-hearted. Her brow is minus lines or wrinkles. She is perfectly fit, physically, though her business demands twelvemonth attention with 365 day’s problems to solve every yeu*. Sales Make FriWds “When it rains, business is bad, and the merchants people in all lines are chirping gloom. 1 don't lay down on the job. I put n a ‘special,’ turn over a vflumc of business on a close margin, make a heap of new friends, and call it a day.” Men, she says, are increasing as customers at the candy counter. Since the war, she claims, the male fondness for delicious sweets has increased tenfold. Men have contracted the habit of buying a bag of candy for dessert instead of taking pie or cfckc with their meals. Aliss Reardon’s patting shot to any woman, who proposes to sell edibles is this; “Don’t < ffer the public anything you would not eat yourself.

WOMEN ARE NOT ALONE IN HATING EACH OTHEFS Look How the Men Criticise John Barrymore, John Gilbert and the Late Valentino, Says Writer.

By All's. Waller Ferguson have always derived a great deal of satisfaction from their favorite fancy, which is that women hate each other. When a woman commits a crime they spend an endless amount of time in surmise about how dreadful would be her fate if only women were left to judge her. They get a big kick out of calling attention to our jealousy jof one another. They believe we lie | awake nights thinking up ways and j means of harming our best girl j friend. According to them we are a | deceitful, jealous, vindictive bunch. I But have you ever taken the j trouble to read the male reviewers’

MAY 6, 1927

reports of plays in which John Barrymore, John Gilbert and the late Rudolph Valentino were starred? Get some together and observe how comically unanimous is their vinification of thwic screen lovers. They always pass these pictures off as drivel. John Barrymore, who is without a doubt one of the most finished actors on the screen or stage, is given a mere shrug of literary shoulders. Valentino, who made no pretense of being anything save a screen lover and got over big, was rousted by the reviewers and hated by the men. John Gilbert, who is assuming romantic roles, is fast coming into the bad graces of the critics. Is there anything behind this? Certainly. Subconsciously these men arc jealous of the arts and graces of these movie actors. They do not despise, but secretly envy them because the women fall before them “like winter’s withered leaves.” The men will hoot at this idea, of course. They will scorn such charges. But let them prove the contrary. And the thing that is still more ludicrous is that you will find these ‘ame reviewers going into of delight over a similarly romnnt® and sentimental production of GlorilP Swanson or Pola Negri. The gestures that Gloria makes on the screen are to them pure art and i drama. The very same antics cut j by John Barrymore are sentimental | drivel and utter rot. For remember this, we are all hitj man beings under the skin. And if I women are jealous and envious of t each other, no less so are the men. The only thing is that these • males have been clever enough to detract attention from themselves by loudly accusing us. They are never such noble creatures as they make themselves out to be.
