"In the winter, when they are playing out in the snow or in a neighbor's house, turning on the light saves me a trip to call them. Even in the summer, when they play out in the long evenings, they readily can see it the length of the block when they are watching for it.”

What's in Fashion?
Shoes Take Cue From Costutnes Directed By AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, March 22.—Fashionable feet in the Easter pa- ; rade are going to look just right with the castume above them. For i there are shoes for every kind of costume—tailored, dressy . . . formal and informal. One that you're going to see marching with many a suit is the j side-fastened one-strap. One much like the sketch above. It has the same tailored lines as its suit . . . helped along by the built-up Cuban heel, neat side buckle, and perforations. Doesn't it look comfortable . . , | easy to walk in? It’s smart in j spring's new brown . . . just a little j lighter than winter browns . . . with an underlay of beige beneath the perforations. You’ll see it that way with green, brown, beige and bright blue suits. And if your suit is navy, this shoe in navy blue with underlay of white is the thing, i If the weather is warm enough there’ll be jacket dresses in the Easter fashion picture . . . sheer wool dresses with their matching jacket. To go with these, nothing is better looking than a pump. The one sketched above has the side closing effect that makes it look just a bit tailored. Yet its high-low heel, its tiny pipings and small buttons give it a feminine look . . .
one that fits right in with the soft dress above it. It looks fine with a dressy type coat, too. But with a tailored coat, | try the new one-eyelet oxford. It’s slightly less. tailored than I the highest-cut oxfords and its ribbon bow gives it a perky air. Stockings to go with these shoes? Taupe is smartest with blacks and 1 blues. But beige goes better with beige or brown costumes and bright colored outfits. Os course, you’re going to want i some of those good-looking mesh stockings. A medium size mesh ~ . . not too conspicuous. If they’re to go with a brown costume, choose | them in brown, too, as they look much lighter over your skin. ! And don’t forget that if you wear j the new street sandals with your Easter dress ... as some very i fashionable women will be sure to do .. . you’ll need sandal foot stockings—the kind with lower reinforcements that don't show above ! the cutout part of the shoe. Have you written for your bulletin on how to choose the right prints for different types of figures? Amos Parrish has prepared two pages of information showing actual samples of materials.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
SLIM AND ZASU ARE NOW A COMEDY TEAM Margery Williams Given Opportunity in Berkell Players’ Presentation of the Farce, ‘A Widow by Proxy.' BY WALTER D. HICKMAN THE thing that I am being asked just now is how Slim Summerville and Zasu Pitts are hitting it ofl as a comedy team in “The Unexpected Father.” Have always maintained that Summerville is a slow comedian and Miss Pitts is one of the slowest comediennes in getting results. In teaming these two together it is not surprising that the action is very slow, but the audience reaction to this movie is most interesting. Just as "Abie’s Irish Rose" was of tremendous audience appeal on the stage and the critics in most instances gave it their most official curse so with Slim and Zasu in “The Unexpected Father.” It has audience
appeal, gets the interest of the audience and holds it, although the pictures moves at a snail’s pace. Looking at this picture “cold” with no audience present, judging merely by my standards of movie entertainment, I must tell you that it is a poor picture. But put an audience in the theater and the
audience reaction is like a house on fire. It takes the story so long to get started and equally as long for the two comics to get started. Summerville strikes oil and goes to the big city or a big city to spend his money, and he starts living like a king. And being foolish becomes engaged to a girl who thinks more of his
Miss Donovan
pocketbook than his heart. On his way to deliver some flowers to his sweetheart in his roadster, he nearly runs over a woman pushing a baby buggy with a smiling baby in it. The old woman, being clever, tips aver the baby cart and out comes baby, gin and all, as the baby was only a decoy for the gin delivery business. The baby, an orphan, had dreamed of a father who looked just like Slim, and she calls him daddy. From then on, Slim tries to live up to his new title and his butler calls a hospital (which turns out to be a dog hospital) and Miss Pitts arrives as the nurse. Finding no dogs or cats ill she takes the job of being nurse girl to a baby. From then on it is one complication after another. Will let you be your own judge as usual. You know that I think it is a poor picture. I admit then I am in the very small minority, judging by audience reaction. On the stage Galla-Rini and his sister are present again. Never have I heard a man play so many musical instruments. George McKay brings on four young women whom he calls salesladies and when they get out of character they become singers and dancers. The Donovan girls and Bishop go in for harmonizing. Arthur Ward juggles hoops, six at a time. Winnie and Dolly have a novelty start for their act which becomes athletic. Bob La Salle uses burlesque methods and burlesque material. Now at the Lyric.
“WIDOW BY PROXY” NOW AT KEITH’S The Berkell Players are presenting Catherine Chisholm Cushing’s “Widow by Proxy’’ as a farce instead of comedy. Asa farce, it gives the players more room to get the laughs. And the players win in their idea of the play. Three of the players do outstanding work and all three are women. Margery Williams as Gloria Grey, who becomes a widow by proxy for the purpose of getting enough money to keep the wolf from the dcor, gives a lively and a smart performance. She actually makes I the false widow sparkle when she discovers that she is in love with a relative of her supposedly dead husband. Madeline LeVevre and Mildred Hastings are cast as the two aunts. Their work stands out very brilliantly in the evening’s entertainment. Philip Brandon as Captain Pennington is a man of ideals when it comes to women, and Gloria nearly meets her Waterloo because her “dead, husband” walks on the stage near the end of the show just to end the play and give it that happy finale. Beatrice Leiblee, William Pollard, ! William Maloney and Bob Faye are others in the cast. The play is done in three acts and two sets. I got many laughs out of this play, because it is just for laughs. Now at Keith's.—(By the ob- ! server.)
* n u Other theaters today offer: “The Wiser Sex,” at the Circle; “Play Girl,” at the Apollo; “Lady With* a Past,” at the Indiana; “The Passionate • Plumber,” at the Palace; “Oklahoma Cowboys at the Capitol, and burlesque at the Mutual. n n tt Neighborhood theaters tonight offer: “Two Kinds of Women,’’ at the Hollywood; ‘Touchdown,’’ at the Mecca; “Silence,” at the Garfield; “The Woman From Monte Carlo,” at the Irving: “Tonight or Never,” at the Emerson; “Tomorrow and Tomorrow,” at the Hamilton, and “Yellow Ticket,” at the Stratford. Bow ‘Adds Height’ If you want to make yourself look taller, here’s a good way to do it. Wear a hat with a perky ribbon bow that stands almost straight up in the air. Incidentally, that’s one way to give height to the very shallow crowned sailor or the flat beret and make it more becoming if you happen to be short.

How to Escape FLU and Grippe Avoid so far as possible the places where ■ germs are most likely to be spread; overcrowded cars and public meeting places; stuffy, poorly ventilated rooms. Be careful of close contact with others and 2 beware of all coughers and sneezers; breathe through the nose, get fresh air but avoid drafts or chilling. Get lots of rest. Drink plenty of water. Keep 2 the bowels open. Take extra precaution to keep in good physical condition, so your system will have normal resistance against germs. Try, particularly to avoid catching cold. Colds lower your resistance to disease germs. At the first sign of any cold, take Bayer Aspirin and remain indoors if possible until your cold is gone. Gargle with Bayer Aspirin dissolved in water at the first touch of sore throat, as this relieves the soreness and usually reduces the inflammation. g If you have any reason to suspect even a touch of flu, call your doctor at once.

Bright Belt Smart Do wear a bright colored belt with your dark dress this spring! It makes the dress twice as smart. Either suede or stitched silk is fashionable. Red or bright green look great on black or navy blue. And tangerine is the color for a dark brown dress.
