Smith Alumnae Presents Floor Show Under Able Direction of Frank Hoke Proceeds From Program and Dance Form Generous Contribution to College’s Emergency Fund. BY BEATRICE BLRGAN Timn Woman'* I'at* Editor . WE vote Frank Hoke this week s laurel wreath. Smith College Club alumnae members made no mistake when they invited him to be master of ceremonies for the floor show, given at the club's dance last night at Woodstock Club. Mr Hoke’s personal inferences about members of the set in presen’ing the numbers as they appeared on the program added to the entertainment. Several of the entertainers were professional; so often do Miss Catherine Morris and Dr. William Cook, Civic

Theater memtxrs, appear—particularly in burlesque atunts—that we count them out of the amateur class. Withal, it was Mr. Hoke's personal sallies that maae the stunt more than just another floor show. We still hope that Mr. Hoke may sometime sing ‘ Asleep in the Deep." despite the plotted efforts to silence him at the dance. We re sorry that the plot called for failure of his feigned willingness to contribute to the program. We re suil wondering where the committee found the bathing suits which the male chorus wore in the “Won’t You Come and Splash Me" number with Miss Morris. Jack Strickland, Paul H. Kraus 111, and Dr. Cook wore the modest suits coyly and coquetishly. and danced daintily to the accompaniment of Miss Morris’ singing. The college emergency fund will be contributed to bountifully with the proceeds of the party. The club is

thanking Mrs John T. Collett for her leadership in arranging the dance. The party attracted many of the Tudor Hall seniors. Miss Joan Metzger was there with a party of the young women and their friends. Her dress ot deep peach satin had a gleaming gold sequin belt, matching the short rap sleeves. Miss Katherine Porter, president of the class, wore

a demure gown of delicate blue with a satin floral design. The off-the-shoulder neckline was edged with a slightly flaring flounce. In front at the neckline was a dainty Dresden bouquet of pastel colored flowers. Miss Mary Stewart Kurtz was youthfully attractive in a blue frock with a flare around the neck, gathered like cartridge pleats, and in back loops of the silk appeared as an abbreviated bustle. With tier white crepe gown, Miss Gloria Geddes wore a knee-length jacket which had sleeves full to the elbows and tight from there to the wrists. Miss Josephine Mayer’s frock was blue too. and the bodice in front: was massed with beads, embroid- j ered in designs. Loops of the material fell over the shoulders in a ; short sleeve effect. Blue satin enhanced the blond j charm of Miss Nina Brown. The cap sleeves resembled flower petals; slightly full, they were edged with a corded band of pebbly crepe, which crossed the neckline in front and ; back. Miss Jane Zimmer and Miss. Prudence Brown were other Tudor seniors who danced. Miss Betty Amos, Edinburg, and Miss Patricia De Prez, Shelbyville, were juniors who joined the younger guests. Miss Sheila Saxton, home during the college vacation of the Thanksgiving season, joined her friends.

Mrs. Brown Honored Mrs. Morris Lanville Brown, who was an honor guest with Mr. Brown, Mr. and Mrs. William C. Macomber, Kendallville, and Mr. and Mrs. William Gavin at Mrs. Samuel Lewis Shank’s cocktail and dinner parties, wore one of the loveliest gowns at the dance. The gossamer pink lace gown had insertions in the Skirt of finely pleated chiffon. A ruffle of the lace outlined the sleeve seams at the shoulders. The very sheer chiffon formed the sleeves from the shoulder to slightly above the elbows where the lace flared into a puff. Mrs. Brown's hair was tied back off her forehead by a tiny pink satin bow. Points of slashes in the bodice of Mrs. Macomber’s white satin gown were clipped with rhinestone ornaments. Mrs. Brown’s and Mrs. Macomber’s mother, Mrs. Roy Elder Adams, was in the party and was gowned in a soft grayish blue lace gown. Miss Marion Barnard whose engagement to George Fotheringham has been announced by her parents, Dr. and Mrs. Harry E. Barnard, attended in a brown lace gown, its skirt edged in a flare of matching net. At the neck in front was a gold flower. Mrs. Wayne Davis Kinnaird’s wood green taffeta gown had a gold cord as its belt, which looped in front. The neckline was high in front, and the wide straps crossed in

COLDS Go Thru 3 Stages —and They’re Far Easier Relieved in the First than in the Second or Third! A cold ordinarily goes through 3 stages: the Dry Stage, the first 24 hours; the Watery Secretion Stage, from 1 to 3 days; and the Mucous Secretion Stage. The first stage is the time to •’nail" a cold. Grove's Laxative Bromo Quinine is the treatment for colds. It is expressly a cold remedy and not a preparation good for half a dozen other things as well. It is direct and internal which is what a cold, an internal infection, requires. It is also complete—it does the four things necessary. It opens the bowels. combats the cold germs and fever in the system, relieves the fc headache and grippy feeling and ones and fortifies the entire sys- • .-m. Anything less than that is in/iting trouble. Get Grove's Laxalive Bromo Quinine at any druggist. 35c and 50c. Ask for it by the full name and refuse a substitute.—Advertisement.

back. Mrs. Kinnaird’s hair was j tied back off her face by a band of ! the gold cord. Miss Alma Block Lyon's ivory velvet gown was trimmed with wide epaulets o. sable in front. The hem of the skirt was slashed occasionally. Miss Charlene Buchanan’s black taffeta frock was youthful with puffs of taffeta as sleeves. Mrs. W. Hathaway Simmons had her hair piled high on her head, appropriately styled for her shell pink gown, which had tiers of flounces forming a sweeping skirt in back. A flare of the material formed a shoulder cape and a demure effect, becoming with the headdress. Last week we saw Mrs. Conrad Ruckelshaus at the Little Lambs’ dan. e with her forehead fringed in bangs; this week her hair was parted back off her face, with a brsided coil banding her head. When Mr. Hoke announced his readiness to sing—at last—his song, Mrs. Henderson Wheeler ran across the floor to whisper a few words to him which again halted his attempt. As she did, the spotlight brought out the flashing colors of the black sequin hip length tunic which she wore over a black crepe skirt. A bright red belt marked the waistline.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

Jane Jordan's interest in you does not end with the first letter. All those who have asked for help are invited to write another letter and tell how their problem turned out. Dear Jane Jordan—About a year ago I wrote to ask you what you thought of my drinking a cocktail and smoking a cigaret with my husband. My letter caused quite a discussion in your column. I promised

to write you later; so here I am with one year’s experience back of me. I have attended a great many parties and have been among all kinds of people. There are those who smoke and drink who wouldn’t do anything to hurt you for the world. On the contrary there are those who would

jllgjif

Jane Jordan

not take a drink or smoke for the world who love to hurt you in any way. So I find it is not so much what we do as how we do it. My husband would rather go with me than any one; so we go together. I find that men go without their wives because they would almost faint to go where a woman smokes or drinks. It is*much better to pal along together. My advice to any woman whose husband likes to go is to fix up her best and go along. I want to thank you and the readers for the thirty letters I received. I read each one several times and enjoyed them so much. I want to assure “Still Disgusted” that she will get actual letters by sending for them. Jane Jordan did not write them herself. A DEVOTED WIFE AND MOTHER Answer—l am delighted to hear from you again and am pleased that you have broken away from the foolish conviction that “what’s pleasant isn’t right.” The practice of moderation in all things is nearer to what's right than asceticism. There is no sense in stripping life of all its foolish pleasures. Thank you for taking the trouble to bring us up to date on your experience. u a a Dear Jane Jordan—Cigaret smoking is givin our American women a “blood-hound facial droop.” Women smoker’s faces are growing sharper. Lips are becoming pallid; Corners of the mouth sag. Lips commence to protrude and develop twitching habits, and the eyes acquire a blank stare. The feminine physiognomy is becoming permanently altered by cigaret smoking. G. A. STARK. Answer—l hadn’t noticed it. a a a Dear Jane Jordan—ls you are surprised that men pay any attention to girls smoking you are going terests through your column, but to get another suprise because here is another who not only considers it disgusting, but like thousands of other men believes that it lowers a girl's refinement and charm 1.000 per cent. I have gone to college six years, four years to a professional school, and am a member of a college fraternity, but would rather choose for my wife a girl who never finished high school than a college graduate who lowers herself morally and physically to the extent of smoking cigarets. I do not know whether or not you are working for the tobacco mbelieve that they could afford to pay you a substantial salary for the advertising you give them. When you

print this letter I believe you will find that this is the opinion of the majority of the young men of today and that they would like an opportunity of expressing themselves through your column. DOC. Answer—No, I am not paid by the tobacco interests. It is only that I am more accustomed to seeing women smoke and it is not shocking to me. The whole discussion sounds like much ado about nothing tc me. Nevertheless, all readers have a right to be heard in this column, regardless of their convictions. Why do we hear nothing from young men who do not object to womens smoking? Perhaps they think the discussion is out of date. If so. why don’t they write? a g tt Dear Jane Jordan—l do not think that a man or woman should smoke. I consider smoking tobacco as filthiness. GOLDIE. tt tt • tt Dear Jane Jordan—l do not like your what-of-it attitude toward smoking. I think much of it. When we go to a public place to eat, oh my! I wonder if any one except a cigaret smoker can,eat and inhale and smell those filthy cigarets and enjoy it. I know I do not and it makes me mad. You may be surprised, but I confess to being a tobacco user, and many times it is embarrassing to me. I always counsel young people not to become addicted to the habit. S. D. DAVISON. Answer—This finishes all the letters we have up to date on smoking. If more are received, more will be published.

Bretzman Studios Advises k ße Natural’ in Sitting for Christmas Pictures Photography Business Established in City Thirty-five Years Ago Announces Special Offer for Gift Season. BY HELEN LINDSAY IF you are planning to have your picture taken for Christmas giving this year, here’s a bit of advice that the Bretzman studio has for you. “Be natural; go to your sitting with the photographer in the rightspirit; wear clothing which will not make harsh lines about your lace; have faith in your photographer, and think of the person for whom the picture is intended, and how you want to appear to that person.” This is the formula for good photographs, which the Bretzman studio has worked out in thirty-five years of active business in Indianapolis. The business was founded by Charles F. Bretzman, who came from Germany when 16, and shortly afterward entered a partnership in Chicago. Later he came to Indianapolis and opened a

studio on South Illinois street. From there he moved the studio to Pennsylvania street, and later, when the Fletcher Trust building wa being built, signed the first lease for an office in the building. The present studio was selected for good lighting and was designed to fit the needs of the work. Photographs of practically every public figure in Indianapolis and those who* visited Indianapolis have been taken through a ’ong period of years by the Bretzman studio. One unusual picture which is seen in the studio is a photograph of James Whitcomb Riley, which was a favorite of the poet, and a copy cf which was given by the studio to Riley hospital. When Riley saw the photograph, shortly after it was taken, he expressed his approval in characteristic fashion.

“That’s Riley,” the poet said. “The artists paint me as they think I should look, but that's Riley.” b a a a a b Pictures of Old Groups Preserved AMONG the pictures which hang on the walls of the studio as evidence of the type of work done at the studio are group photographs of the old Hearts Club and an old quartet, both of which were organizations within the old German House, now the Athenaeum. When the picture of the Hearts Club was taken, one of the members had died, but the others wanted his picture shown among them. Another man posed, and later the picture of the deceased member was inserted in the group so cleverly that it is impossible for an untrained eye to detect the substitution. * The picture shows the group sitting around a huge round table in the German House, during an exciting moment in a card game. tt B tt tt tt tt Employes Trained in Studio Methods EACH of the present employes of the studio has been trained in the technique of the studio. Mrs. Bertha Bretzman, who has been associated actively with the business of the studio for many years, is taking an interest now in the photographing of Shortridge High School seniors for the Shortridge Annual. Mrs. Bretzman is a Shortridge graduate, and so are her children. The photographs are being taken early, in order to give students an opportunity to use them as Christmas gifts, also. Asa special Christmas inducement, the studio is offering groups of different kinds of photographs of the same subject at group prices this season.

BEGIN HERE TODAY ANN HOLLISTER, pretty and 20. sells the family antiques to pav debts of her father, now dead. On the day of the sale a young man stopped bv motor trouble, comes to her nome to telephone After he leaves Ann finds a blue vase missing and in its place a note signed “P. K.” and SSO. Ann gets work as a librarian and becomes friendly with SARAH KENT, also employed at the library. She meets TONY MIC'KLE. commercial artist, and is attracted by him. though Sarah warns her that Tonv is fickle and irresponsible. She sees the young man who bought the blue vase and learns he is PETER KENDALL 11. wealthy, prominent and engaged to VALERIA BENNETT, society girl. Valeria has no sympathy with Peter's ambitions and plays around with a wild crowd. She goes to a party at DIRK VAN BALEN'S apartment one night. Peter's brother DON arrives and Valeria hides in a bedroom. Too late, she realizes she has left her party bag where Don will see it. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER NINE (Continued) The diamond was small and square, set chastely in platinum. Ann thought it was the loveliest thing her eyes had ever dwelt on. “I’ll be back before Christmas,” Tony told the clerk. “By Christmas eve any way. a a a ANN was so happy she could scarcely wait to tell Sarah. “It’s sil}y the way I feel about it,” she said. They were lying awake in the darkness, sharing confidences. “I felt terribly when Tony first talked about getting a ring. I didn’t want him to spend ail that money when I could do without it. But the ring has come to be a symbol now—a symbol of Tony’s ability to make good his promises—and sacrifice if necessary.” “And save,” Sarah said. “It’s awful the way Tony wastes money.” The earnestness in Ann's voice hurt Sarah. “Don't worry about Tony spending money on your ring,” Sarah said grimly. “If he doesn’t spend it that way, he will some other way.” Ann suspected there was logic behind Sarah's reasoning. The days went by and suddenly the shops were flinging out gala signals everywhere. The streets were as bright at night as in daylight. Christmas wreaths and garlands met the eye at every turn. What to Tony? The question was in Ann’s mind and heart and on her lips. “You’ll be the death of me," Sarah said. “Give him a scarf pin with the Kohinoor in it. Buy him a house and lot. The way you carry on, any one would think Tony was the prince of Wales instead of ai. ordinary commercial artist.” “Not ordinary," said Ann. Before Christmas eve Sarah was completely worn down. With Mac's present—hand-rolled handkerchiefs made by Sarah, supplemented by a handsome silk scarf—attractively boxed and wrapped and tied, they | were still searching for Tony’s gift. In the end she dug deeply into her slender savings and purchased Ia luxurious maroon-colored robe. Then came the business of wrajftiing | the big box in silver paper. Ann carried the box into the bed- ' room and placed it on top of the : chiffonier. It looked gorgeous.

SHE flew to the kitchen then to help Sarah. Tony and Mac were s coming and the girls had spread ! themselves for this dinner. “If Mac expects me to serve this | sort of food as regular fare, he’ll j be badly disappointed,” Sarah said. “Tony won’t. Food doesn’t make much difference to him. He'd lots rather dash out for a bite at a restaurant than bother with cooking.” “He doesn’t like trouble,” Sarah said. “No, he doesn’t.” Ann said it quite happily. Mac was there, promptness itself. Tony would be the last one. “Hello, said Mac. “Do I smell Christmas?” “You smell Christmas eve, which is better,” Ann replied. “The kid still believes in Santa Claus.” Mac was smiling. She left the two alone, deliberately prolonging her toilet because Tony was still absent. Finally, as the clock pointed to a quarter of seven, she returned to the living room. “What could have happened to Tony?” Sarah asked. a a a CHAPTER TEN MAC crossed to the telephone. “I ll find out where Tony is,** he said. “I went by for him but he was busy and said he’d be here in plenty of time for dinner.” He gave the operator the number, waited, but there was no answer. “You should have brought him along,” Sarah said reproachfully. Ann’s face burned at the implication in Sarah's words. “Why? Tony doesn’t need a nurse.” Mac said, uncomfortably, “Shall I dash out and look about a little?” “No,” said Ann sharply, “Please, I'd rather you wouldn’t.” (To Be Continued)
