The braid is also used to edge the pockets in a triangular pattern and even the buttons on the double-breasted tunic are striped with silk stitching.

Edward W. Wunsch. A Good Vocabulary Will Carry You Far HAT vocabulary of your! Is it a strong ally, bringing you success, or a tattle-tale that gives you away? Does the right word come to the tip of your tongue as you greet a stranger, chat at a party, talk to the boss? Do you say "awfully" Instead of "very," "goofy" instead of "ridiculous?" Do you say "PERK-you-la-tor" for "PERK-o-la-tor," "muni-CIP-al" for "mu-NIC-lpal," "would of liked" for "would have liked?" All such massacres of the language stamp you as not quite "on your toes." Brighten, strengthen, enliven that vocabulary with day-by-day effort. Get rid of that second-rate feeling that speech errors cause you. Our thirty-two-page booklet points out errors that you don't know you make, gives you training in using words.

BARBER THE latest release to beauty editors eominir.

from tha manu facturers of a well-known line of nail policies says smart women hava chosen the three R's as the most popular shades in polish-rust, ruby and rose. Rather a neat little arrangement. And they con tend that with these three a woman has a complete polish wardrobe for the finger tips for the year if she knows Just how to use it Rust, smart new spring poll: 1 1 shade, they tell us, takes care of anything one might wear in auntan, including your complexion, come July and August. All colors that have yellow in them, including the greens, browns, orange-red, can be worn with a touch of rust at the finger tips. For colors that don't warm up to yellow, fuschia for instance, we are instructed to stick to rose and ruby polish.

Ruby is dramatic with black and white, and rose is the polish of polishes for all the pastels. The new rust has this advantage it produces two effects depending on how it is used. One coat gives the nails a subtle peach bloom tone, perfect answer to the color question for conservative moments. Then when the' glamour 'hour strikes add a second coat over the first. Our guide warns up to watch our face powders In working out color Cosmetics that are worn together should all be based on it le same fundamental tone.

Ivory powders reflect certain flattering, dusky-yellow lights and are in harmony with rust. Lipstick and rouge should be on the yellow-red also. With a change to rose or ruby finger nail polish a powder based on flesh tones, rouge that has a rosy cast and lipstick to match the polish form the proper ensemble. ANSWERS TO BEAUTY QUESTIONS MRS.

Both lanolin and cocoa butter cream can be pur chased in convenient tube sizes at very reasonable cost. It le lanolin used night and morning can be applied for treatment of lines or wrinkles and too dry skin. The cocoa butter cream is usually used for massage ot the body, such as legs and arms. It is more readily absorbed by the skin than In the cruder forms. Just ask for either in your favorite drug department.

We corralled Georgia long enough to hear the ex-planation -which was NOT that the blond twins had had a falling out, as was rumored. The reason was simply that Joe Joyce, who came over from Chicago for the week-end, had forgotten his dinner jacket; so Josephine donned a dinner dress with gold-dotted pale blue top and black skirt, while Twin Georgia was done up in a striking red formal embroidered in gold. Gold leaves made into a bracelet smartly accented the outfit. Georgia's date, incidentally, was Rice Fitzpatrick.

Martha Jean Eddy, done up in flame satin with metallic leaves in her hair, came with Jack Cur-ran, and Elsie Schneider, in blue chiffon and wearing a tiny net cap with silver sequina on her dark hair, sat at the same table with Frank Landry. The Don Schillings had Betty Maiullo, Red Cavan and Dr. and Mrs. Guy Loraneer at their table. Austin Humber, we gathered, was another of the evenings many stags.

Day in the Country for This Group nAT SEYMOUR was purvey-or of near-perfection in the party line when she entertained a group of her pals at an all-day affair Sunday. The setting was the Seymours' lodge near Milford, with its two blazing fireplaces to provide cheer and warmth.

The group went out about 10 o'clock in the morning and manned to get up gorgeous appetites with a hike through the countryside. Luncheon (chicken casserole had been brought out as piece de resistance) was followed by a leisurely afternoon, with the cavalcade heading home- ard around seven.

By SALLY DAGUE A' LL OF you who already are gazing fondly at seed catalogs and counting the days until spring, will welcome the news that you can shed your fur coat soon. Are we forecasting immediate warmer weather? Oh, no, just popping to tell about the new spring furs.

You wear them with cloth coats for between-seasons. A fur cape worn over a cloth coat feels practically as warm as a fur coat yet looks far more like spring and gives you an enjoyable change from the coat you've been wearing all winter. Especially smart, we'd say, is the new weskitt cape sketched above at left. (Suits, frocks even dinner gowns) have weskitts this season so we purr happily over one in fur.) This weskitt cape is natural tipped mole, soft and silky, and the weskitt fits your body snugly. That's why it's warm enough to wear soon now.

A little round collar circles your face and the cape part sweeps out in back, very full and graceful, measuring about hip-length. In natural or brown, the cape is very specially-priced, I'm told, at $19.75. That sounds special when you consider the quality and chic of the thing. Use your imagination a little too, and think of how you'll love wearing it with spring frocks in late April and early May. Fur stoles are back in style.

We saw the one of French chinchilla sketched at right and, believe us, it will make any plain untrimmed cloth coat or suit look extremely "great lady." You can wear the stole three different ways, to wit: Crossed over your tummy, buttoned with three buttons set In a triangle; or, wear it tuxedo style-both ends slipped under a belt (All fur tuxedo effects are smart, you know); or fling the stole around your neck with one end draped frontwards over your right shoulder. Get ready for a 'sprise now. The stole is only $25 but looks like SO MUCH MORE. The same shop which has these furs are proud as punch of their new red foxes. This fur is high fashion for spring, high as the sky, and these scarves have marvelous colorings vibrant and coppery.
