Color Has Taken Place of Pure White in Styles at Biarritz, Ilene Writes Biarritz, France, Aug. 1. DEAREST SUE: Having just arrived in this lovely spot and being still enchanted by the beauty of the scenery and the dramatic setting of the place, my mind is somewhat less organized than usual. All the women look so beautiful and the costumes are so marvelous I can not get down to cases. What a change for a vacation! It is just wonderful. I’ve enjoyed your letters so much, hearing about what everyone is doing and who they are visiting. Its almost like

a newspaper from the entire America because ' you keep such good track of what the girls are all doing. One fact has impressed itself upon my consciousness here, the spell of pure white is broken and color reigns everywhere. The white evening gown is no longer content to look merely angelic, but adds brilliance and dash. It is indeed fortunate for me that I foresaw this and made two wise purchases just before I left Paris, one a large shawl of metal cloth which has dull gold figures on a ground of the most marvelous American beauty red. Over any of my simple chiffon frocks, most of which are white, pink or black, it comes to the rescue and gives an illusion of gorgeousness yet it can easily be dispensed with when extreme artlessness is advisable. It just matches some very snappy red satin slippers I have with very high heels and velvet bows that always make my feet take an interest in dancing. You’ll fade away when you hear of my other purchase. It is anew sport type evening gown, the upper part of gold brocade and the skirt of yellow satin. Last evening I saw an evening gown that was a triumph of simplicity and chic. It was this lovely fuchsia shade of transparent velvet, cut with a surplice closing and a skirt with rippling godets. The godets were contrived, however, so that they did not add to the actual width of the skirt and the close narrow line was retained well below the hips. Velvet Girdles Popular Another stunning note here is the use of wide velvet girdles some of them tied in lovely bows with many loops and long ends. The velvet of this season is simply beyond words. In a short time I have seen a number of satin evening frocks in pastel colors with as many diamond bracelets as the wearer could flaunt. I saw a gorgeous embroidered frock last evening with foundation of very dull green crepe embroidered in faded blue and rose that gave it the feeling of an old tapestry. Mother has a lovely new dinner gown of black satin crepe with the crepe used for the main part of the gown but the glossy surface inserted in two very full godets in the front of the skirt. The blouse is cut with diagonal inserts of the satin surface. On the shoulder is a really lovely flower of black and white velvet- She is quite regal in it, for mother’s figure is marvelous. Kerchiefs Plentiful The kerchiefs here which everyone wears with simple sport frocks are marvels of color and design. Those of chiffon with colored borders are particularly lovely I think. And the jewels are superb. Bracelets aie the jewelers’ contribution to the day and grow wider and more imposing by the hour. Premet s gold chains and Chanel’s crystal effects are the rage. We are going over to San Sebastian next week and may possibly stay a few days. If so I can probably tell you what the Spanish senioritas are wearing. Do keep me informed as to all the gossip on your side of the Atlantic. You’ve done nobly so far. Lots of love, ILENE.

Friendship That Wears Barest and Finest Kind BY MARTHA LEE Friendship is subject to many of the same rules and reactions as love. You have friends and inspire that quality of attachment that we term acquaintanceship because you have qualities that please and attract, So far, so good, but this is not the whole of friendship. “She’s a person that wears” we often hejir someone remark of another. That’s the test. After passing the portals of getting acquainted, you only “wear” if you’re really worth while.

Friend Failed Her Dear Martha Lee: I would like some opinion regardlne myself. X am lonely. Miss Lee. and I long to have friends, but everybody I have been friendly with has done me some dirty trick and so I have almost come to the conclusion there is no such thing as true friendshin. Mv last friend. I could have bet everything I own on. almost, but she was the one who double-crossed me the worst. She deliberately and knowing how It would hurt me. stole the man I was going with. Is friendship a name only? MISS MARGARET M. No indeed, Margaret. Friendship is one of the finest emotions that the human heart knows, and a true friend is beyond valuation. You have been unforunate in your friendships it seems and as you seem to value this quality, it would seem as if the fault has not been yours. However, watch in the future that you do jiot too quickly consider an acquaintance a friend. Perhaps you have been trusting too quickly. Anyway, don’t lose your faith in human nature. “Sweet Seventeen” is much discouraged because ‘boys don’t like me,’ as she says: “I am not altogether bad looking,” she says, “but I am very bashful and do not care to be “petted” as some of the girls do. She says she has ugly hair and wonders if that could be the reason she is unpopular. Indeed no, dear girl. It would take more than an unattractive head of hair to submerge real charm and sweetness, a measure of which you can acquire if you haven’t it already. Os course, you are thinking about your self too much. A splendid recipe for self consciousness is to be interested in the folks you are thrown with and never un-* der any conditions talk about yourself. Try this. “Margaret L” is already thinking about the next school season. “I can get a position now and maybe I won’t later,” she says, “but I am in the second year of high school and I don’t know whether I should stay In school or not. I am almost 17.” Better finish your high school course, Margaret. Evqp if you must work lat’-. you’ll find it will pay to •ay in :00l and get better preaied. .ucation is a weapon. Get he be t and all you can of that weapon. Picnic Sunday Members of the Security Benefit Association will have an all-day picnic at Robert’s Mill, Sunday.

Women 'Just Naturally’ Win Realty Laurels

By United Pres SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 10. Woman’s enviable position in real estate circles all over the country was attributed today to her “subtle, intangible intuition and natural graces.” “The real estate woman is here to stay,” declared Stephen Barnson, State real estate commissioner of California, in an address before the special conference of women realtors at the convention of the National Association of Real Estate Boards in session here. “From my knowledge of women,” he said, “they have an advantage over man in guiding the investments of customers. Her graces and natural artistic temperament in the planning of homes and in administering to the aesthetic inclinations of her purchasers place her on a high plane in the’field.” There is still no relief in sight from high rentals, speakers agreed, due to high cost of building materials and labor.

Family Menus

By SISTER MARY BREAKFAST—Honey-dew melon, cereal, cream, plain omelet, oven toast, marmalade, milk, coffee. LUNCHEON—Spinach and egg salad, whole wheat sandwiches filled with cottage cheese, rice pudding with gooseberry sauce, milk, tea. DlNNEß—Flounder steamed in milk, potatoes in parsley butter, browned carrots, cabbage and celery salad, peach custard pie, milk, coffee. / Serve sections of lemon with honey-dew melon when used for the breakfast fruit. The lemon adds a pleasant tartness to the bland flavor of the melon that is quite appetizing. Flounder Steamed ip Milk Roll filets of flounder in neat rolls and place in top of doubleboiler. Add sweet milk to cover, one tablespoon butter to one cup of milk and one-fourth teaspoon salt. Cover boiler and place over boiling water. Cook thirty minutes, keeping the water boiling all the time. Remove fish and thicken milk with butter and flour rubbed together. Season with salt and pepper and pour over fish arranged on a hot, deep platter. Sprinkle with paprika and garnish with tiny springs of parsley dropped on the filets of fish. Only a very little salt must*be used in tHf milk while cooking the fish. Much salt will make the milk curdle. Birthday Dinner Mrs. Samuel Selka, 1441 Fairfield Ave., entertained Tuesday evening with a surprise dinner party in honor of her husband’s birthday. The birthday cake on a plateau of roses formed the centerpiece for the table. Rosemary Hambrock and Jenny Lind Duncan presented the gifts to Mr. Selka.

Child King Deemed as > Sad Figure BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Why are kings? This question confronts us more emphatically now that Ferdinand I, of Rumania, has laid down to rest and a poor little lad of five climbs reluctantly upon the throne. What American mother could wish such a fate for her child? Beset by political factions, bounded by aristocracy and peasantry, tom between relatives, deceived by sycophants, endangered by revolutions, his life as a monarch will be less happy than that of any newsboy upon our city streets who has freedom and opportunity and the future before him. The day of kings has passed. Mankind has reached a plane of intelligence where men and women are equal, at least on the basis of citizenship. The pinions of royalty trail in the dust. The past, colorful wit hpageants, holds buried within it the might of monarchs. Never again will that power, that beauty, that glamor, be born again. Today the very word king is travesty. Most of them have far less actual power than the President of the United States. They are mere lay figures fated to wear the ermine, husks of majesty who exist so that the passion for romance within the soul of the multitude may be appeased by the sight of their vanishing splendor. This poor little Michael, who will never be Mike to his fellows, is a victim of the European desire for drama and display. These people who live in lands that are old have bred within their bones the servility to kings. Americans find this attitude hard to understand. But of all the many things for which we should give thanks, this is the greatest: That filled as we may be with the follies of youth, and inconsistent with good sense as are many of our national actions, we still have reached a height of civilization which will not permit us to bow the knee to nobility. This one independence of spirit is the very foundaiton of our republic. We may be blatant, we may be uncultured, but at least no por little mother’s son of us will be doomed to the stilted life and the pitiful existence of a king in the twentieth century. Diet of Teen Age Children Needs Vigilance Children between the ages of twelve and sixteen have been singled out by Miss Lucy Gillette, wellknown nutrition and budget authority, as particularly needing milk in their every day diet. Miss Gillette is a practical authority for making meal plans correct and yet leave a margin for starting savings accounts from small salaries, so this special mention of the children of the ages who are usually neglected in nutrition programs is significant. “Miss Gillette suggests the neglect of this adolescent age group as one of the reasons mal-nutrition is quite common today,” states Miss Frances Hoag, of the National Dairy Council, in commenting on this budget system. “These are the ages that need to build up resistance, their bodies are growing and their energy is enormous at this time, and so they should be particularly careful of diet. Dairy milk and other proper foods at this time not only promote good health but working power as well, throughout life.” Marriage Announced Mr. and Mrs. F. F. James, National Rd., announce the marriage of their daughter. Miss Bess Sanders, to William Finley Wright which took place Aug. 1, at high noon at the Old First Methodist church In Rochester, N. Y., with Dr. Walter E. Burnett officiating. After a motor trip through the east the couple is at home at 1214 Sutherland Ave., this city. Mrs. Wright is a graduate of De Pauw University, and a member of Alpha Chi Omega, and attended the Rice School of the Spoken Word In Massachusetts this summer. Mr. Wright is a graduate of Indiana University, where he was a member of Sigma Nu fraternity and is a member of Technical high school faculty. Organ Recital A series of organ recitals, sponsored by Miss Adelaide Conte of the Irvington School of Music, was completed with the program presented Monday evening by Miss Bessalee Reavis, pupil of Mrs. Mildred Smith.

Friends We Prize Don’t Criticise Us By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON They say that love makes tho world go round. There should a corollary to the theorem, Prais* helps some too. It is all very well to say that a person’s truest friend is the on* who tells him his faults. I never believed it and I never will bciiev* it. My true friends, the ones I lik* the best, trust and love, are not the ones who are stingy with praise Quite "the opposite. My best lover friends are the ones who make ma feel like a million dollars when I am with them . An artist paints a picture. Ha invites two friends to view it—separately. The first looks at it casually, decides it is bad and says so. Not in so many words, perhaps, but in a way that allows no mistake as to his verdict. At any rate he does not say it is good. The second friend also views the picture and decides that it is—well, not so good! But he thinks more of his friend than he does of the picture—besides he admires everything his friend does. He knows that he himself would not attempt to paint so much as a sign post. He does not quite prevaricate when he says, “Wonderful! Simply splendid! I wish I could do that. I certainly envy you! Some of these days I want to buy something of yours.” The first friendship will wane. The latter will live. We love those who not only see that we have justice, but who go out of their way to help us get it. An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure. By the same token an ounce of praise is better than a pound of criticism. It is not in human nature to care for those who criticise us—unless that criticism has the motive of love behind it. How quick we are to recognize the real thing and how equally quick the counterfeit! The man or woman who calls attention to another's faults, either directly or indirectly, and announces that he does it because of friendship, is an ace-high hypocrite. Ancient Persia Had Vogue of Beauty Parlors CHICAGO. Aug. 10. Modern women have nothing on the ancient Persians when it comes to patronizing beauty parlors. Miss Harriet Chamberlin of New York, speaking before the American Cosmeticians Society, declared that beauty parlors were as much in vogue centuries ago as they are now. “Since the beginning of time permanent wavers have used curlers around which to wind the hair. The Persians employed wooden sticks instead of the more approved glass or metal rollers which we use.” she said. In the early Persian days th* the locks were wound around the wooden rollers jiud then a coatin,? of clay was put on. The '•Patient'’ went out and sat in the sun for an hour or so, Miss Chamberlin said, and then the Persian beauty experts went through an elaborate shampoo which wound up with many fanciful perfumes for the hair.
