She was a guest musician on the December program of Mary HAMPTON'S Column There is no excuse for "country cousin" luggage any more now that fashionable equipment has come down to a sensible price level. Now that everyone travels due to automobiles as well as gingerly mapped tours to Timbuetoo, smart luggage all women must have.

For the funny old tin-cornered case of paper leather or a strap-bound roll of oil-clothing is as out of the modern picture as a surrey and horse. I'm thinking of Christmas giving, too, just now. For luggage is a big enough item SO that we don't all run out and treat ourselves at the moment we need it. One of the most workable contributions is the new sort of hat box which leaves dress hangers alone. It gives, instead, the necessary shoes for a neat ride.

And we might as well stay home from any good week- end as to go without smart hats and shoes-however few the costumes. These cases really hold hats- -even perishable and stiff and brimmed hats. And then around the edges are the for shoesseveral pairs, too. The ones I baser especially liked came in square shape -to harmonize with the' sister pieces. Four to five pieces belong in the travel life of every modern.

There is the small over -night bag. It goes right along with you into the dressing room itself when you travel in a Pullman, too, and segregates the cosmetics and night clothes the rest. Then like the three bears, there is the middle sized case which can play two-some with the small case for simpler trips. And then the big fellow which just does gain admittance to the Pullman and takes all the clothes you own in a pinch. If we ever get to Europe again this is what we have to have since checking one's luggage there in balmiest times wasn't what it is at home.

The two other additions are the very important hat and shoe case I just mentioned and then the small never let out of their hands." That luxury, case which women usually is because it holds the diamonds and other jewels. But also it can be (and often is) packed full of pink, yellow and other tonics and bottles of various descriptions--with some perfume tucked in! Airplane luggage is almost the monopoly of our times. It is easy to lift by oneself in emergencies--it is obligatory almost air travel where everything is weighed except the coat you have on and it does look smart. They even make it for men, you know, as well as women now. But out of condescension to the frivolous sex we still get ours in -looking linen stuff with bold red stripes--or checks- or something equally gay and interesting.

Of if you would like to be completely exclusive and very expensive looking as you travel go in for marvelous genuine alligator or this polished new bleached cowhide. Memorial For Rev. Fred William Sheldon, First Methodist Church A memorial service will be held for Rev. Fred William Sheldon at the First Methodist church Sunday, December 10, at 11 a. m.
