Miss Jennie Albrecht who attends National Youth Administration School Fine Gadget, Opines Scotty An ingenious way to keep her underslung Scotty out of the mud is that adopted by this fair Parisian, who totes him in a hand-grip rig across the city's slushy streets. And he seems to enjoy the ride, too. Once out of the mire, Scotty is set down and trots along dry shod until they reach another muddy crossing.

By Alicia Hart Many of the 1337 beauty displayed on cosmetic counters which have been stripped of their red ribbons and holly, are as practical as they are handsomely pack aged. A perfectly beautiful manicure case, for instance, with pale blue covering of simulated leather, holds everything that is needed for a complete home manicure. There is oily remover which takes off polish but doesn't dry out your cuticle, hand cream, cuticle oil, nail white, files, emery boards, glass orange stick for delicate cuticle, two shades of lacquer--one dark for evening and one natural, and a stick of powder polish. The sides of the manicure case open out flat, and the Jiles and orange stick are attached lo Ihom. The bottles lit neatly into a center compartment and aro held in place with a fine, large buffer.

Experts now agree, you know, that nails should be buffed lightly before liquid polish is applied. A new perfume container to carry in your purse takes up no more space than a pencil and is guaranteed not to leak. There is a tiny metal ball in the end of the opening and you release the perfume by pressing the metal ball against your neck or wrists or ears. It Is not expensive and makes a fine small bridge prize. The vitamin oil you have been hearing so much about now smells less slrongly of perfume, comes in a handier bottle and is the perfect thing for hot oil facials.

Simply heat a bit of the oil, soak strips of cotton In it and put these over your face and Leave on for twenty minutes. Wash with soap and water first, of course. Wrecked Neighborhood. Painesville, Jan. 6--Leroy Adams, 21, awoke in his cell today to hear he had been arrested for driving while intoxicated.

After falling asleep at the wheel of his high powered roadster, he roared off the road, through a hree-foot cinder pile, through a hedge, jetween two large maple trees, over a 100-foot lawn into an 8-room house, moved it from its foundation, knocked from their beds a family of four, cracked plaster, upset furniture, and broke dishes. Adams car was demol- shed. He suffered a scratch over left eye. Clarksdalc, Fire. Clarksdale, Jan.

New Versions of House Coats Now Seen In Public New York--Although designed primarily as hostess gowns, floor-length house coats of soft wool flannel are finding their way into the luggage of winter travelers rrore and more frequently.

Drafty companionways of ships, the aisles of pullman cars and sleeper planes see these new glamor bathrobes, which are flattering, warm and cozy. Wool flannel, with all the inherent warmth and comfort it had when grandmother bought it by the bolt, and with new beauty of styling keyed to modern tempo, is appearing now in rich deep black as well as glowing monotones, dusty pastels. English tie prints and amusing blazer stripes. For pouring tea before your own fireside or lounging in your stateroom, nothing could be handsomer than a black flannel hostess gown with gold kid belt. Man-tailored house coats, dear to the hearts of school girls, are trimly fitt-.

with either straight or slightly flared skirts. They have notched lapels or shawl collars and are finished, with wide belts (not sashes) of self-material. Less tailored types are as slim- waisted as your favorite evening dress and have sweeping skirts, many with short trains. The princess silhouette, finished with a row of buttons or a slide fastener down the front, is widely favored. Some are enlivened with touches of gleaming satin, bright metal cloth, jewelled buckles and the like.

An interesting straight panelled sack and a wide sweeping skirt distinguish one attractive tailored, blaz- or-striped robe. In white and two tones of blue, it wraps around the figure and is finished with a wide belt of self material. Another is a more feminine robe in seal blue wool flannel with exaggerated shoulders and silver buttons at the side closing. A hostess gown of royal blue flannel with matching satin in a shining panel from throat to hem has a jew- elled buckle at the slimly fitted waistline. A turquoise blue flannel coat, cut on princess lines, and worn with matching satin trousers and Ascot, has a figured-molding bodice that is closed from neck to waist by a row out By Olive Roberts Bartou I watched a mother the other day who had given an order to her boy.

She said to him, "Henry, go and brush your hair." That was all. He went outside then, and in half an hour fcame back and began to romp with the dog, "Henry, I told you to brush your hair. It looks dreadful." "I'm goin' to, Mud," said Henry. "You don't give me time. Anyway, I'll just get it mussed again." "It wouldn't hurt you to brush it it every once in a while.

what I said the other day. I told you I wouldn't keep on reminding you about some things. I know you don't care about, the way you look, but I care, and that should be enough." With a sidelong glance at me, Henry went away. He looked much belter when he reappeared. But by dinner time, he was all awry again.

Some people were coming in, and his mother looked at her son. "Henry, please go up and fix your hair again." Henry said crossly, "I did, Mud. You're always nag--fussing at me about the way I look. Oh, all right, I'll go." Her husband came home. He threw his hat and coat on a hall chair.

She said, "Won't you put your things in the closet, Tom? The Smiths are coming." "Oh, they're alt right," said Tom. "Always leave 'em there." it makes it hard for me to keep the hall cleared," said my hostess. But mentally, I pictured her day after day asking him mildly to use the coat closet for his hat, scarf and ulster. By this time, no doubt, it had become an issue, the same as Henry's hair. The maid had forgotten to moisten the lettuce before putting it away in the ice-box.

Mrs. Brown went to the kitchen to see about the salad and found the lettuce dry and wilted. When she returned she said, "I'm afraid we'll have to skip the salad. I of silk braid buttons. The sophisticated black flannnel robe makes the kind of- costume to wear when you have guests to tea or dinner in your own home these late winter evenings.

A wide suede belt in gold and red and gold suede sandals give a tru'iy dressed-up appearance. have told Lol.ta over and over how to cover the green things before putting them away, liupt she forgets the minute I say it. I hate to keep nagging." Right then a new slant on this thing called "nagging" occurred to me. Why is it that people in a house, with as much responsibility to order and neatness as the mother, have to be reminded repeatedly about things they certainly should do on their own account? There 'is such a thing as nagging, but it can only be called by this name when a woman gels a real obsession. Yet, even here it can often be excused on the grounds that obsessions aro repeated irrii ations.

No, the family should not leave all responsibility to her. Henry, and his Dad and Lotta all knew what to do. They would not do it on their own initiative. Thi'y wailed to be reminded daily. Then they called it nagging, or at least thought so.

It is hardly fair. Cop Lost Effects. Kansas City, Jan. 6--Policeman Ernmelt Asbury, who was assigned to maintain ordi-r in a night club on New Year's Eva, today inserted the following advertisement in a newspaper: "Lost--Revolver, .38 calibre, police badge 143, reward, no questions asked; return to No. 4 police station."
