COURT COSTUNES | NORE, ELABRAT London Dressmakers Supply Curls to Be Worn by Debutantes. By the Associated Press, LONDON, April,9.—Court dressmak- ers are supplying curls with the dresses to be worn by society debutantes at the May courts. Shingled hair now 1is considered slightly out of fashion, and Miss 1929 who cannot coax a growth of curls at the back of her head before May 9, the date of the first court, will buy an emergency cluster from her favorite dressmaker. Dresses, too, will be more elaborate than during the past few seasons. The Queen has set the seal of her approval on three lovely designs to be used as guides for debutantes and matrons who will make their curtsey before her this year, Skirts Made Longer. Skirts, in accordance with the latest fashion, are longer and show an uneven hemline, and bodices have the slight sleeve effect which court regulations de- mand. There is ample latitude allowed, however, for originality in details. Satin mousseline and the softest of ring velvets are the favored choice of the dressmakers for court gowns this year. Chiffon still reigns as the popu- lar fabric with debutantes. Points that should be noted by every debutante when choosing her presenta- tion dress follow. They are based on the court regulations issued by the lord chamberlain: | 1. Skirts are longer, and should reach | at least to the center of the calf. This| effect - may be obtained, however, by draperies and other tricks of the dress- maker’s art. Ruling on Length of Trains. 2. Trains must be not longer than| 18 inches from the heel when the ‘wearer is standing. 3. The headdress must consist of three plumes, arranged with the center feather slightly higher than the others. 4. Bouquets must not be too scented. Highly fragrant flowers become over- powering when multiplied by thousands in the warm throne room. 5. Fans must not be too large. In- creasing numbers of presentations an- nually have resulted in more and more crowded rooms where it is almost im- possible to unfurl a very large fan. NAMEPLATE AGAIN TAKEN. - Legation Reports Third Loss in Recent Years. The brass nameplate on the front door of the Netherland legation, 1470 ||| Euclid street, was stolen again Sun- day for the third time in the past sev- eral vears. Miss Anne Braus, secretary of the le- gation, reported the theft to police of the eighth precinct, who are searching for the plate on which is engraved the visiting and office hours of the legation. Officials at the legation said today that on each occasion that the plate was stolen & screwdriver was used to loosen it. They valued the plate at $15. ‘The proposal to exempt from State taxation the Huntington Library and Art Gallery will be placed on the ballot at the 1930 general election in Califor- nia.

CHAPTER LVIL, \HERE would be no need for her I attendance that night — Mr, ‘Torrington was very emphatic on the point, though there was a wind tempering to his stern- ness to which the girl instantly re- sponded. “So if you have any theater engage- ments or dinner parties, or if 've got some plain sewing to do, you'll have all the time you want.” “Are you going out?” she began, and was instantly apologetic. “I ought not to have asked you that, and I really didn’t ask in my role of amateur detec- tive, but out of——" Here she floun- dered, seeking without success words to convey her meaning. “Out of sheer friendliness?” he sug- gested, and she nodded. “I guessed that. No, my child, I'm staying at home tonight.” He looked at the clock on the mantelpiece. “After dinner I have an important interview,” He opened the door for her and she went out, liking him. She was glad to have this time absolutely her own, for Dora had asked her to come to an elrg dinner. She was going out, she said, and was not dressing up, so would Au- drey come as she was? The girl had not seen or heard from Dick Shannon * that day and . she searched the newspapers in vain for any reference to the diamond steal. ‘When Torrington had spoken about the matter on the previous day she thought the news was public property, but ap- parently he had some source of infor- mation which was not available to the press, for she found that no newspaper gave so much as a paragraph to the happening. She wished she could see Dick—if only for a few minutes, though there was nothing in particular she wished to say to him. But he hadn't phoned or called—she was glad of the distraction which Dora’s dinner party offered. It was her sister who opened the door to her when she arrived. “Come in, my dear,” she said, kissing her. “I've had another domestic upset. My cook left this afternoon and my new maid is out for the day; I hadn’t the heart to keep her—she was visiting her sick mother.
