For Between Halves
Football addicts know it is important to have something hot to refresh the inner man (or woman) as the chill of late afternoon creeps into the bones, even if the home team is charging down to victory. A compact case, with room for two quart-size vacuum bottles, four cups and a sandwich box, stows the welcome pickup neatly. Finished in simulated pigskin, it’s right smart looking, too.

By ROSETTE HARGROVE
PARIS, Oct. 25 (NEA).—While ensembles deveid of fur are smarter than an attempt to achieve a luxurious air with indifferent or imitation fur, the fact still remains that a fur coat is a worthwhile investment. Thrifty women know that the best never is too good in this respect. : And this coming winter, more than ever before, the well-known “classics” head the list of furs for the truly chic. Mink, broadtail, astrakhan and seal take their bow, not only for the daytime, but for the evening picture as well. . Paquins’ ankle-long evening coats of the above-mentioned furs caused a sensation when the collection was shown, and easily. lead in the most luxurious creations to be seen. The great novelty, though, was the promotion, so to speak, of astrakhan to a basis of equality with mink and broadtail. Paquin went one bettér and actually hemmed -a

the cuffs and neckline, her short compact figure bustled about the living room like an animated tennis ball. Her dark hair, very short and straight, and genial face completely devoid of powder and lipstick, exemplified the courage of her convictions to remain aloof from all conventionalities. The luxurious hotel background made her seem all the more unsophisticated. Flowers, orange gladioli, American beauty roses and purple chrysanthemums filled the room. In one corner a secretary was at work typing a story Elsa had just finished dictating. “It's my first tour and I'm thrilled,” she said. She and her secretary and maid will travel entirely by train.

Elsa's favorite form of entertainment are fancy dress parties. “They always put people in a good humor,” she said. Good humor is what Elsa misses so in present-day Germany. “Hitler has taken all the fun out of life,” she told me. “He’s a genius. He has cured the country of communism and the people are very pleased with him, but he is dangerous for peace. No brain of any one man is able to run an entire state.” Elsa is a champion of democracy, but if it ever came to a choice between fascism and communism she’d prefer fascism. Elsa expects to return to Europe after Christmas. She is under con-

Invite Wrong People, Elsa’s Party Secret
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn, Oct. 25 (U, P.).—Elsa Maxwell, who came out of Keokuck, Iows, and gained fame giving parties for the international set, told a women’s club here that her formula for the successful party is to invite the wrong people and seat bore next to bore. “No bore thinks he's a bore and each will try to outshine the other,” she said. “There's no need for alcohol. It's at the dull parties that people have to be carried out. “With my formula,” she. said, “I could make a success of a dinner with John L. Lewis and William Green at the same table.”

Some are straight, whiie others show a godet flare center back or starting from either shoulder. Molyneux’s padded and quilted broadtail hiplength loose jacket, with loose kimono sleeves, strikes a very new note and typifies the season’s trend of contrasting extreme bulkiness in a coat, concentrated at the top of the silhouette, and a pencil-slim frock. The combination of fur and fabric still is being featured.

Foot Exercises
Required for Walking Grace
By ALICIA HART
The woman who firmly intends to continue to walk gracefully with a light, easy tread when she is past 40 does foot and ankle exercises regularly. These take only a few minutes of he time each week, but they do a great deal to keep her from walking, sitting or standing clumsily in a not at all youthful manner. Just before she pulls on stockings, she stretches out her legs straight in front of her, pointing toes downward and feeling the muscles on top of her feet stretch and puil. Still pointing feet downward and away, she curls toes slightly down and inward—back toward soles. Afterward, she points toes down and out again, then brings them back toward her body, meanwhile thrusting heels forward as far as possible. This stretches muscles in the backs of her legs and limbers up ankle joints at the same time. Now she relaxes for a few seconds, then stretches legs outward again and swings her feet around in circles. At first, this may make her ankles ache slightly. -So she does it only a few times a day—but always every day. Now and’ then, she walks barefooted about her room. This, too,

A straight little dress with rounded shoulder tabs, stitched at the top and flaring into pleats below, is the one for her. Make 8308 of dimity, handkerchief lawn or dotted Swiss. But when she starts to grow and to lose her baby plumpness, then. she does want a waistline—as you see in 8178—pointed like a basque in the front, with a gathered skirt below. This desigh will be pretty in challis, wool crepe, velveteen, taffeta or gay cotton prints. Pattern 8308 is designed for sizes 1,2, 3, 4 and 5 years.
