BY ELENORE ORMAL evening gowns are making their bow to prospec- tive purchasers in .the. local shops this week. They are gorgeous creations, for lus- trous velvet brocades, gleaming metal ¢loths, flashing jewels and luxurious furs combine to lend them a beauty and distinctiveness surpassing any ever displayed in former seasons. The colors do not flaunt themselves in Your face in their brilliance and dar- ing, but are rather subdued, gnd glow with a richness of dark tonal beauty, $ that the trimming detail is ac- gented by contrast with Its back- &round, and its fall loveliness /re- Vealed.

Long dou- ble chains of sparkling rhinestones are caught to each shoulder, and would also touch the floor were they not fastened to the wearar's wrists with bracelets of wine-red velvet, thus adding the final touch of beauty 10 the creation. Another ,gorgeous evening model seéen is of sapphire-blue cut velvet, draped on distinctive lines. There is a long camisole-like foundation of velvet, supported on one side by iriple shoulder straps of steel beads. The other side is concealed by the blouse, which includes one diminu- tive kimono sleevelet, and _which drapes diagonally down to the op- posite hip, where its scattered folds are held in place by a large ornament 4t steel beads and sapphires, The <kirt is a continuation of this one- sided blouse, long .and TOW, with its few draped folds held . by the aapphire and steel placque. A gath- e panel also falls from the orna- gent and extends several inches over the floor, forming a side instead of a k train. “The shop which displays this gown alfo shows an-evening wrap of ¥ap- trifle | DE WITT EBY.

In the room illustrated one cupboard was inserted in the space formerly occupled by an ordinary closet and the other was placed in a space cut in the wall.

Ewo such quaint china closets as those shown are enough to make any dining room charming. and when a paneled wain- scoting is added, pulling the cup- boards and the windows into one harmonious whole, the foom has a look of permanence and beauty that is rarely found in any but the most expensive homes, The manufacturers of this ready-to- use furniture make gideboards to match every cupboard design, so that the entire room is truly built in, Kidney and Red Lentils.

Farmer Brown's Boy drew Spotty Jin to the bank and then stooped over tand picked him up. Then that dread- tul pull on Spotty's mouth ceased. That was a relief, a great relfef. But Spotty was no less frightened than before. What was this great giant going to do with him? He drew his legs and his head into his sheH. That was the only way he had of protect- ing himself. Then he waited for what would happen next. What did happen was that old pull on his mouth again. In spite of all he could do his head was pulled out of his shell. “You poor little chap! said Farmer Brown's Boy softly. “Of course you haven't the le tdea what has happened to you, and you are frightened nearly to death.

Out came his legs, and the way he scrambled off that log into the Smiling Pool was funny to see. He was free and safe again, and as surprised a Turtle as ever lived. And without really think- ing about it, he knew that he had nothing to fear from Farmer Brown's Boy. (Copyright, 1928, by T. W. Burgess.) The Diary of a Professional Movie Fa BY GLADYS HALL. Have You & “Pretty Boy” in Your Home? l If you have a “pretty boy” in your home you are apt to be housing a potential Jack Dempsey. Did you know that? Golden curl { beautiful eyes are earmarks of a “sissy” in America, where red hair, freckles, @ broken nose and a face that would stop any aristocratic clock are supposed to be the infallible tokens of the “regular the guy who can knock fhe “other feller” out and generally bat- tle his way to success in the “ring’ of life. But Teddy Hayes, Jack Dempsey's trainer, says otherwise. He says that the litfle chap Wwith the yellow curls 4 the soulful gaze is the chap that is apt to develop into the best athlete. No_more, then, need the little Lord Fauntleroys _hesitate to leave their protecting front porches because of the Shrimp Flynns of the neighbor- hood, for, says Hayes, the Took- ing boy is instinctively an athlete and & fighter if he will just give him- self a chance. By way of illustrating his theory, Teddy Hayes uses Richard Headrick, smali star in_John M. Stahl's “The Wanters” Young _ Richard, pro- claims Hayes, is_a perfect specimen of boyhood.
