shuffling jig for his encore was one of the -hits'* of the evening. Charle ‘ A Rockwood, interlocutor, led the gang singing at the end of the stunt. The dance then went on merrily. We couldn't resist following Mrs. William Wcmmer dancing across the floor with the tan and brown shaded ostrich feathers of her circular swirling about her. In front the feathers came together from both sides of the skirt in a point at the knees. We couldn't decide the exact color of Mrs Cortland Van Camp Martindale's long sleeved gown. The shade was suggestive of pansy blue, and was striking combined with the red of the velvet sash circling her waist and tied in a flat bow in back. Miss Mary Adelaide Rhoads wore a wrist corsage of gardenias with her velvet gown, dark green and soft like moss. The large buttons in front were of green stones and rhinestones. The orchids on Mrs. Kurt Panther’s wAst were trimming enough for her stovepipe satin gown, with the intrn ate cutouts of the bodice and short slce\es. Many Chons* Black Rows of black, grey and while pleated flat ruffles formed the neck trimming of Mrs. Henderson Wheeler's black chiffon gown. A shaggy black flower fluttered on one shoulder. The bits of black lace edging the shoulder straps and neckline of Miss Harriet Denny's black gown reminded us of a lei. Very Pierrot and pert in appearance were the white taffeta silvered threaded ruffles banding the neckline of Mrs. Wayne Davis Kinnaird’s black taffeta drrss. Heads were embroidered in shapes of leaves on Mrs. C. Willis Adams' black velvet gown, worn with a jacket. The velvet striped in black, red and white, which formed the bodice and rapes over the arms was the striking note of Mrs. Frederic M. Ayres’ black velvet gown. Mrs. Ayres’ young daughter-in-law. Mrs. Lyman Ayres, came to the party In a wine duventine dinner gown with long sleeves and the back slashed open at the neck to the waist, where a row of tiny buttons added trimming. Rhinestone clips snapped on in the corners of the square neckline in front. I.ame With Crepe Two silver cords formed the shoulder straps of the silver lame hip length tunic, which Mrs. Carl Vonnegut wore with a white crepe skirt. Mrs. A Ewing Sinclair was picturesque in a henna moire ♦gown which spread out in fullness around her feet, and had soft folds of the material turned back off her shoulders. When Mrs. Samuel Simpson walked across the dance floor, we glimpsed the slits in the skirt of her black crepe dinner dress, with its high neck trimmed with a gold collar and its long sleeves banded with gold cuffs. Mrs. Warren K. Mannons henna

red erepc gown had layers of gold lame over the wide collar of the errpe. The lame was repeated again in the belt. In back, tiers of deep flounces formed a slight train. Mrs. Conrad Ruckelshaus appeared with her forehead fringed in bangs and Mrs. David Stone, we noted, chose the same style of hairdress. Mr. Lodge promised the Lambs anothrr gay frolic for Christmas night. Bridal Party to Be Entertained at Pruitt Home Mr. and Mrs. Clifford R.

1904, but no country in the world has had greater success with Einar Holboell's f u n draising idea than the United States, where the seals are sold for one penny each between Thanksgiving and Christmas each year. Beg inning with a restrict-

ed sale in Delaware in 1907, and becoming nation-wide the next year, the Christmas seal now is the chief means of supplying funds for the extremely important tuberculosis prevention work which is accomplished by 2.000 affiliated associations throughout the United States. As the seal design is changed each year, many philatelists have become interested in attempting to assemble a complete collection. This is more difficult, ‘han it seems because the variations which occur in the printing are classified by collectors as creating a separate stamp. The new United States stamp catalogues issued by the Scott Stamp and Coin Company, New York, on Oct. 22, to replace the former specialized United States catalogue, devotes a section to the tuberculosis seals with full descriptions of their numerous types and varieties. This, of course, gives them official approval as a stamp collecting medium. A complete collection which includes all the varieties listed in Scott's catalogue would contain approximated less than a hundred

stamps and as few are of any great value, they make an inexpensive as well as beautiful collection. a a a OEALS from former issues may be obtained from stamp firms or from the Christmas Seal and Charity Stamp Society, a national organization whose secretary is A. W. C. Blumfield, Indianapolis, and also a set comprising the entire official set not including the variations, may be obtained from the Western Newspaper Union. 310 East Forty-fifth street, New York. During the 1933 seal sale, one of the most complete collections ever assembled was presented to President Roosevelt to supplement his postage stamp collection. The 1934 seal honors Dr. Edward Livingston Trudeau and commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the erection of the first hospital building called “The Little Red,” a tiny couage which Dr. Trudeau built at Saranac Lake, N. Y„ in 1884. Dr. Trudeau was born in New York in 1848 and after becoming a practicing physician with a family, he discovered that he had contracted tuberculosis. This knowledge was equivalent to a sentence of death as in those days consumption was considered absolutely fatal. In his autobiography Dr. Trudeau says of his feelings upon discovering his condition: “I felt stunned. It seemed to me the world had suddenly grown dark. The sun was shining, it was true, and the streets were filled with the rush of noise and traffic, but to me the whole world had lost every vestige of brightness. I had consumption, the most fatal of diseases. It meant death. How could I tell my wife whom I had just left in unconscious happiness with the baby in our new home. And my rosecolored dreams of achievement and professional success in New | York. They were shattered now ! and in their place only exile and the inevitable end remained.” B B B TRUDEAU Chose to live the short time remaining to him in the “peace of the great wilderness.” and in May, 1873, decided to go to the Adirondack mountains. Bv September he was so much improved that he sent for his { family, and in 1876 they moved to Saranac Lake, then only a small village. Doctors heard of his recovery and sent other tuberculosis patients to try the climate. Thus Saranac Lake village began to grow. In 1882, Dr. Trudeau conceived a plan for building a hospital at Saranac after reading of the Brehmer experiment in Silesia i where the sanitorium treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis first was used. The stamps shown above are French tuberculosis seals and Belgian semi-postals since 1924, used . for postage as well as for the ! tuberculosis fund.

i Bn SEA Service ! Thanksgiving weather—and the I clan's already gathering. The kitch- ’ en’s the most important room in the ! house just now and will continue to be until the great day comes and the dining room steps into its owm. Long experience has taught that it is better to plan the whole dinner at least several days ahead of time. Order the turkey then, to be delivered the day before Thanksgiving, preferably drawn and cleaned. Wednesday afternoon, stuff and truss your turkey. Cook and chop the giblets, too, so that they will be ready to add to the gravy W’hen you want them. You can even cook some of the vegetables on Wednesday. The pies should be ready for baking early Thursday morning before the oven is needed for the turkey. Stew the pumpkin and run it through colander on Wednesday. You can mix the pie crust, wrap it in waxed paper and put it in the refrigerator until Thursday morning, too. Trussing the turkey is important, by the way, because it adds so much to the final appearance of the bird when it is placed before the host. Trussing is done after stuffing. To truss, first draw the thighs close to the body and hold them by inserting a long skewer under the middle joint, running it through the body and out through the other side. Cross ends of drumsticks and fasten securely with a stout cord. Fasten cord to tail. Second, place wings close to body w’ith tips pushed over first joint, making triangles on the sides of the turkey. Hold them with a second

skewer forced through wings and body. Draw the neck skin under the back and sew with a soft cord. Next, take the cord holding the drumsticks to the tail, cross it and draw it back and forth around each end of the upper skewer. Tie string securely in a knot and cut off end. Allow four hours for roasting a ten-pound turkey, about twenty-five minutes to the pound. Roast in a moderate oven, 375 degrees, F. Place breast down on the rack of the roaster. Even with a covered roaster it’s a good plan to baste every half hour with one-half cup butter melted in one-half cup boiling water. Sprinkle with salt and pepper when turkey has been in oven thirty minutes. Allow one-half teaspoon salt to each pound of fowl. When ready to serve, remove the skewers, cut the cords and place turkey breast side up on a large hot platter. Baked oranges make a delicious accompaniment for roast turkey. The oranges are boiled for thirty minutes before baking. This makes the skin soft and tender and prevents too strong flavor. Cool and cut, off slice from blossom end. Remove center pith and crowd into each orange one teaspoon butter and one teaspoon sugar. Bake in a closely covered baking dish in a moderate oven until very tender but not broken. It will take about one and one-half hours. Add water to half cover fruit. Phi Tau sorority will meet tomorrow night at the home of Miss Carolyn Schaub, 323 Northern avenue.

Fannie Brice of ‘Follies’ Tries Hand as Designer of Costumes and Succeeds Actress Didn’t Like 8275 Dress Member of Company Wore So She Made Better One for $7.12. BY HELEN LINDSAY. FANNIE BRICE, who will come to Indianapolis Dec. 6, 7 and 8 w;;n the Ziegfeld ‘Follies” at the English theater, will be seen by Indianapolis theatergoers in an entirely new role. For while Miss Bnre has been known for years on the stage as one of the leading commedienes. her associates in the theater recently have learned that she is a costume designer (and they consider her an apt one*, as well. Miss Brice has the ability, her stage acquaintances say. to judge a costume as to effectiveness. She not only can criticise it, but she can

design another, and make it with her own fingers. When the "Follies'’ were playing in the Grand Opera House. Chicago. Miss Brice was standing in the wings one night. Vivian Janis, of radio fame, made her entrance to sing one of her hit numbers. She was wearing anew gown. Miss Brice didn't like it, and when Miss Janis finished her number, told her so. "Why, do you realize this is a Milgrim creation, and cost $275?" Miss Janis asked. "I don't care who made it, dearie, nor what it cost; it still looks terrible on you.” replied Fannie Brice. Amused but piqued, Miss Janis said, "If you don't like, it, why don't you get me another that you think looks better?” And that is just what Fannie Brice did. She entered the designing and dressmaking -business the next day, calling Miss Janis to her dressing room and showing

her a mass of yellow material which she draped about, the young singer's figure. Three nights later Miss Janis again was called to Miss Brice's dressing room; this time for a fitting. Three nights later. Vivian Jams made her first appearance on the stage in the new Fannie Brice creation. She still wears the gown, which is of yellow crepe, with a white rope, corded collar and neck, and the white rope down the front to accent height, for Miss Janis is only of medium stature. a a a a a a Costume Creates Enthusiasm THE girls in the company were enthusiastic over the new costume. Three of them hurried away to their dressing room, to don the oldest things they could find and parade in front of Miss Brice's dressing room. The scheme worked and Fannie Brice is engaged now, between scenes, in designing and making costumes for her actress friends. She has completed half a dozen gowns, and is now working on two more at the same time. The gown which she designed for Vivian Janis cost $7.12, and Miss Brice says the others will rot cost more. But she'll have to lay aside her dressmaking activities soon, for when the company returns to Hollywood, she will be busy at the Universal Studios, in sequences of the new picture in which she is to appear, "Ziegfeld, the Great Glorifier.” a a a a a a Shoes Created for Resort IFca?* TO accompany the new cruise and w’inter resort outfits which are interesting women who have planned winter vacations, I. Miller fz Sons have designed some unusual shoes, which are shown at H. P. Wasson's in Indianapolis. An intricate basket weave is the newest design in shoes of this type. I. Miller shoes of this new’ leather are in oxford design with scuffless heels. These are suitable for w r ear w’ith tailored costumes, sweater and skirt combinations, or w’ith slacks and shirts. Other shoes which are featured for cruise and resort wear, designed by I. Miller, include a white linen sandal opera, with a strap which holds the shoe in place in dancing. A cruise pump is designed in white suede with blue trimming at the heel and toe, accented with a punched design. For active sports wear in winter resorts, there is a beige linen sandal, trimmed with brown kid, and with low’, scilffless heels. The Russian calf is used in a decorative manner on an oxford designed in herringbone linen, which will be effective with many of the sports costumes suggested for cruise or resort wear.

A Woman's Viewpoint

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

THERE are several ways of looking at the Irish Sweepstakes and other such methods for enticing Lady Luck. Perhaps they keep alive our belief in fairy tales, which we must have in order to endure life. Perhaps they supply the excitement needed by an ennuied order. At any rate, suddenly some drab existence is gilded with a golden glint. A drudge becomes a lady; a lad a prince overnight. Dreams come true for somebody, if you can call the desire for money a dream. On the other hand the dependence in fairy tales, in luck, in the goddess of fortune or whatever you choose to call it, is a great curse. Don’t misunderstand me. I’d like nothing better than to get a winning ticket, but at the same time I realize the urge which causes me to take a chance upon a bit of paper, is exactly the same urge that emboldens me to invest my savings in bad bonds and fake stocks. In spite of all the bitter lessons, however, we seem determined to risk our necks, reputations, happiness, even future bliss, if needs be, to get rich quick. Such a desire is not confined to any locality or race. It seems to be a universal trait, but certainly that trait has come to its full flowering only in the United States, at least within the last century. We may

not bet upon the races, but the schemes we have for augmenting our fortunes without work are numerous as well as nefarious. Gambling may be a natural instinct, but I ‘h'nk its present vogue in this country also is acquired partly, having its inception in such events as the gold rush to California, silver mining in Colorado and oil gushers which made milliona’res between sunup and sundown. So after you read about the boy who made SIOO,OOO on the sweepstakes, turn to another page of your paper and enlighten yourself with an account of the recent Insuli trial, which is another phase of the same business. In a sense, all gambling is folly, and the determination to get money for nothing tear, down something in the human character which it is very hard to build up again.
