for her by her escort. Top honors and a silver trophy went to David Watson, 3445 Central Ave. who ° designed -a, gown; combining Dior's elegance and Fath's diagonal look.

NIPPONESE HAVE small feet is the discovery made by Frank Warren Jr, former Indianapolis baseball player, now a member of the U.S. Air Force detachment in Japan. Unable to find baseball shoes to fit his size 12 feet, Frank wrote home to his parents and asked them to send the “spikes” he was using here” two years ago. That's more comfortable than using the Japanese method of taping up the feet to prevent growth,

SHAKESPEARE'S belief that

“life is but a shadow, a poor player who struts and frets his way across the stage and then is heard no more” cannot be applied to guests at the dinner varty held yesterday by Mr. and Mrs. Jay Boyer, 2632 E. 58th St. In order to relax after a driving week. of Christamore Ald Follies» 3shearsals, the Boyers invited Mr. and Mrs. William Schroeder, Mr. and Mrs. “Taylor Wilson and James Dyas to spend a quiet evening. These people may strut and ‘fret their way across Woodstock Club’s stage during rehearsals but it doesn’t all end there. Acting has become so much a part of them that for relaxation, they played charades until 4 a.m. With all this practice, ‘they shouldn't be poor players.

... Complétely fortified with determined negative answers, she faced the young salesman, Without giving-her a. chance to state her. no's, he said: “I'm not working my way through college. I have no hungry children to feed. I'm selling maga zines because I enjoy reading them and want others to share in my joys. If you're interested, I'd be happy to write out your subscription. If not, thank you for your time and good by.” She subscribed, = =” ” IN-LAWS, OUT-LAWS, there really isn’t very much difference, according to an Irvington housewife. Exasperated by the lack of co-operation shown by her inlaws at the time her husband was ill, she sat in the drug store waiting for a prescription’ to be filled.

Noting the worried look, the

pharmacist asked what was wrong. She replied, ‘“In-law trouble.” > . Then, as an after-thought, she added, "In-laws are as bad as outlaws.” :

chester, N.H. wired friends here to expect a week-end surprise, their curiosity ceased

with her unexpected appearance Sunday. Yesterday, the surprise bounced back to the visitor when five medical officers, friends from Massachusetts, unexpectedly stopped in Indianapolis to see her. What could Mrs. Danos’ hostess say but, “The more the merrier.”

More Pakistan Women In Professional Fields

By ELEANOR ROOSEVELT KARACHI, Pakistan, Feb. 26—At a seminar of the All-Pakistan Women’s Association presided over by Begum Liaquat Ali Khan, I was given a-picture of various problems and developments here.

Begum Husain Malik spoke of the status of women under

Islamic law. Then someone spoke on education and health, social services and economic development, Women are taking up a * number of professions. As doctors they are very much in demand for many women will not have a man as attendant physican. The shortage of nurses is spoken of .over and over again. One woman doctor, in speaking of the health. problem, said there is one nurse to probably a million people here, whereas in the United States .there is one for every 380 people. I hav& not checked these figures but it is quite evident that there is a very great shortage. This is largely due to the fact there have not been enough women of good family who would come out and take.training because the men in their family might object.

"At Lady Dufferin Hospital which I visited they had a great many maternity cases and general illnesses of various kinds, as well as operative cases common to all women. The woman doctor ih charge training school and says she has an adequate supply. ’ I was shocked but not sur: prised to find there ‘were a great many cases’ ‘af infection among the maternity patients . since the greater part of the poorer women never come for any pre-natal care and the “conditions, particularly under which refugee women live, make it almost impossible to prevent infection at childbirth. The women ar2 willing to go to the hospital but only when they are really ill. F-4 Fd 2 ; t THE ALL-PAKISTAN Women's Association showed me also a ‘small Maternity Clinic which it started in a refugee camp under considerable ‘difficulties. :

Water in the area is only turned on for twp hours in the morning and two at night and there is no running water as yet in the clinic. ' They have no electricity so if ‘they. have night cases they must use lamps. But the conditions ' certainly are better than in the refugee huts for they are clean and sanitary. In this same maternity center all children of that area of refugees come in with cups every morning and get a sppon- 4, ful of cod liver oil and a cup of milk.

‘or girl,

NEW YORK, Feb.” 26— One of the greatest charac-

ter and personality build- -

ers, in the opinon of Florence Mercur, noted concert pianist, is the study of music. “If I could only speak to all

the parents in America person-

ally,” says Miss Mercur, “I would try to explain how much music means in the lives of their children.” Music .study develops respon-

it 1s a natural outlet for emotional strains and stresses. = n Ld “THE PIANO if the foundation for all other instruments,” Miss Mercur explains. “If your child decides in later years to be a singer or to play the trumspet, he or she will be well prepared.” An important for parents, once they decide to give their child ‘piano lessons, is the type of teacher to pick. Very often they feel that an inexpensive _teacher {is best, since they're not sure the child has any definite talent or musical tendencies. This is terribly wrong, says Florence Mercur.. Many socalled teachers actually have destroyed talent because they did not employ the ‘right methods. ” n = BEFORE YOU allow a teacher to ‘start working with your youngster, do a bit of investigating about her background. Find out where she has studied. It also is important for you to know what she has accomplished in the musical field, It is very simple for a woman to study music for two or three years and then call herself a

- teacher, says Miss Mercur.

If she has a good background, she is a wise selection, no matter what she charges. Impress upon the teacher you do choose that you want your child to have a thorough grounding in the classics. Theory and harmony- also are vital to basic

training. » un =

ONCE YOUR youngster is well versed in Bach and Beethoven her capacity for learning will increase two-fold. Popular music can come later, according to Miss Mercur. Once the teacher starts the lessons, show your confidence by giving her complete authority. Never stay in the room during the session, advises Miss Mercur. Never question the teacher's methods. It's a good idea to give the teacher and pupil at least a year to get used to each other, to allow their personalities to blend. If you are wondering about the best age to start your boy Miss Mercur recommends six or seven . “Children at this age don’t have too many outside interests,” she says. “This ‘offers

sibility, powers of concentra- _ tion, mémory “and self-conti-dence, she thinks. In addition,

Then, they will be so indoé¢trinated to music, they will want to continue of their own free will.” = = ” BUT, THE famous pianist goes on to explain, you cannot expect a young child to want to practice. You must face the fact that she would much rather be out playing with ber friends. What you should do is vadget the youngster’'s time so that she has a full day, much concentration on any one thing.

This should be followed by |

some other activity, until about one and a half hours of practice have been accomplished. = = = THE CHILD'S mind is open only for the first half of the practice period. If you force her to go on and on, nothing will be accomplished.

Plays Cards Well but Not People

R. Champion is praee tically perfect on the play of the cards.g Where

he falls down is in playing the people. Look at what -hap‘pened to him in today's deal.

He elected to open the king clubs against Mr. Muzzy’s three no trump contract. Mr, Heinsgite signaled with, the six spot and the king was permitted to win. A small club was led next and Mr. Muzzy killed the jack with the ace, After a brief (and faulty) analysis of the situation, Mr. Muzzy now led the jack of hearts. He had no particular purpose in selecting this card and some other time, in the same set-up, might have led the queen or eight spot. a 5 o ANYWAY, Mr. Champion played low, especially since he was desperate for his partner to

Now nothing can beat you. If I continue clubs, it makes your 10 good. Anything else gives you time to set up heart tricks.”
