WOMAN’S PAGE. Tuck-in Blouse BY MARY' Every American woman who visits France this Summer and who takes time from visiting museums, cathedrals and historic chateaux to observe fash- fon tendencies of well dre:sed French women will undoubtedly be impressed by the fact that the tuck-in blouse is a well established fashion. For several seasons the trick of wearing the blouse Well Established MARSHALL. waist line, French dressmakers have gone ahead with the idea until it has been generally accepted. In almost all the shops in this coun- try it is possible to buy blouses of wash- able silk or fine linen or cotton that may be worn in this way, and many ‘women have adopted the fashion for the two-plece suit. The tuck-in blouse with separate skirt worn without a jacket is one of the new fashions to which we shall have to accustom ourselves. Callot of Paris shows striped wash silk blouses to be worn with colored suits, and a much talked about ensem- ble shown by one of the new Paris dressmakers showed a white woolen suit worn with a navy blue silk tuck-in blouse. Some of the newest jacket suits have skirts with narrow stitched bands of material at the aides of the belt, through which a leather belt may be drawn in truly mannish fashion. Fashion favors scarfs this season, and the more you have of them the merrier. This week's illustrated circular tells how to make two of the most charming sorts copled from French models.

John Hennessey, the American star, hx defeated Tamio Abe in a hard follght match that lasted four sets. Heralded as the most formidable of his country’s tennis stars, Abe felt his defeat keenly. Mrs. Hoover wit-¢ nessed the match 7% from her box. She had been an en- _ < thusiastic specta- tor, and repeated- ly applauded the outstanding _plays | of Y;he partici- pants. ‘While the gal- lery wag applaud- ing the Victor Mrs. Hoover was seen to'be writing. Shortly afterward a message was sent to the box nearby, occupled by the Japanese Ambassador and Mme. Debuchi, The message was, in effect: “Tamio Abe gave a worthy and skill- ful performance of the sport so dearly loved by his countrymen.” It is doubtful if a Davis Cup match ever was ed by a more distin- guished and colorful gallery than the one which followed the play of the Americans and Japanese. ‘There was Mrs, Hoover. The Japa- nese Ambassador - and Mme. Debuchi were in attendance at all of the con- tests. The Ambassador of Spain and his daughters, Senorita Maria Padilla angd Senorita Rosa Padilla, were there. e Ambassador of Germany and Frau von Prittwitz und Gaffron; the Minjster of Sweden, Mr. Bost 3 Princess Elizabeth de Ligne and Prin- cess Antoinette de Ligne of Belgium, Mile. Jeanpe Cretziano of Rumania, Senora de Ververka, wife of the Czechoslovakian Ministér, and Senora de Diez de Medina, wife of the Bo- livian Minister, were only a few of the many other members of the diplomatic ranks who were present. Cabinet members’ wives, wives of Senators and a host of others high in the social list of the National Capital were spectators. ‘The Secretary of State, himself an enthusiastic tennis player, and Mrs. Stimson witnessed the matches. It was Mrs. Stimson's first appearance in ‘Washington since her husband became Secretary of State. She had been here little more than a week, and the El’elur part of this time she had been 1. Vying with the contestants them- gelves in the limelight was Dwight F. Davis, former Secretary of War, and the donor of the Davis cup. His appearance was the signal for much applause from the gallery. He was introduced to the players and no- tables in the gallery by Lawrence A. Baker, chairman of the tennis com- mittee of the Chevy Chase Club, and then faced the battery of cameras. Mr. Davis long has been a familiar figure in tennis. During his junior year at Harvard he was intercollegiate tennis champion. In 1901 he won the national doubles championship, and twice in subsequent years, paired with Holcombe Ward, turned back British challengers, . That he has lost none of his old- time prowess in the game is shown by, the fact that in 1923 he won the squash racquet champlonship of the District of Columbia. ‘When it became ,apparent that the special session of Congress would last the better part of the Summer, Wash- ington’s haute monde shuddered. Heretofore there has been an exodus on the part of this element of the Na- tional Capital’s population to the vari- ous recreational spots of the world. Under present conditions, however, it is impossible for them to leave. The pending tariff bill is of the utmost im- portance, especially to those who have caused Washington's society to be la- beled “smart.” Several weeks ago the dean of the diplomatic corps, Sir Esme Howard, British Ambassador, let it be known that he intended to stand by through- out the season. Other foreign envoys have followed suit, with the result that embassy row is functioning now much as it'does in the Winter months. And, of course, while Congress is in session, all departments of the United States Government, from the it down, keep hard at work. ‘Washington’s elite, therefore, has had to find a place nearby to escape the hated urban Summer. 2 And the Annapolis Roads Club on Chesapeake bay, within easy driving of the Capital, was selected. ‘The Annapolis Roads Club first be- came an incident in the smart life of ‘Washington last Fall and Winter.

In addition, the wooded shoreline is studded with homes of the club members. Up to the pier come the large yachts, whose owners know Chesapeake Bay as the Atlantic seaboard’s finest cruising ground. ‘The golf course is perhaps the main attraction. ‘When it was laid out the club de- cided that the best would be had. Ac- cordingly, a repre- sentative was sent to the 13 most fa- mous courses in the world. The best hole on each of the 13 was chos- en. A clay model 2 of each was made and reproduced at Annapolis Roads } All of the - are elevated and w3t ~ : much larger than usually found in this country. Holes reproduced at Annapolis Roads were taken from Piping Rock, Prest- wick, St. Andrews in Scotland, Biarritz, the Lido, the National, the Chicago Golf Club and others. A veritable golfer’s paradise is the eighth, a reproduction of the famous Redan hole at St. An- drews. Names high in the official life of ‘Washington sre included among the officials of Annapolis Roads. Among the members of the board of governors are: Gen. Charles P. Sum- merall, chief of staff, U. 8.

Everyday Law Cases Is Chattel Mortage Recorded in One State and not in Another, Enforceable in the Latter State? BY THE COUNSELLOR. The National Driller Co. sold to Harry Turner of Missour! a drilling out- it and recorded & chattel mortgage in that State on the fixtures. Shortly thereafter Turner moved to Idaho, taking the fixtures with him, and a few months later he sold them to John Hicks. Not knowing that there was a mortgage on the drilling outfit, Hicks paid the purchase price to Tur- ner. Ascertaining the whereabouts of Turner, the driller company entered foreclosure proceedings against the un- paid fixtures. Hicks protested the pro- ceedings, contending that as the mort- gage had not been recorded in the State in which Turner had moved it was of no effect. Permitting the drilling company to foreclose, the court explained the gen- eral law on the situation as follows: “It is the rule in most States that unless the Legislature has provided otherwise a chattel mortgage duly re- corded in the State where the property was then situated will by comity be en- forced in another State to which the mortgaged property is subsequently re- moved without re-recording in the lat- ter State, even as against an innocent purchaser for value, where the mort- gagee did not consent to the removal of the chattels or know of their removal, A few States hold the contrary view.” Mrs. M. writes: “I have been intend- ing to write to the department for some time, but the mother who spoke of her child’s jealousy is the immediate cause. I have three children and noge has been jealous of baby brother or sister. In fact, they all beg quite often to have more bables. I have a girl of 7. a boy 5 and a baby girl of 2. When I am sick (which is quite often) my 7-year- old can get the meals and attend to the younger children all day long. She keeps the children amused so that they don't muss up the house. She and the boy do all my shopping at the grocery for me and do it as well as I could. 1 teach them to help me from the time they are babies and they do enjoy it. They have even mopped floors and washed woodwork for me. “They are in bed by 7 o'clock and up by 7:30. The younger ones sleep two hours in the daytime. They love me very much, but they adore their father; no one is quite as great as he is. If they have a selfish or jealous streak in them it has never come to the top. “They aren’t under-sized. All are short but slightly overweight. My 7- year-old can change a baby's diaper like a grandmother, d she can also hop and skip like a 7-year-old. She is in fourth grade at school. This letter may sound ‘braggy,’ but it isn’t intended that way. Any one ¢an rear their children to love father and mother as well as each other. “If the mother whose four-year-old is jealous of his baby brother would let him take the baby for a daily outing in his carriage, play with him on bed and floor he will soon learn to love him and want to give him everything. Good luck to your column. I hope every one enfoys it as much as I do.” Answer.—I echo your last wish. Only one criticism—I would feel it somewhat of a risk to turn a 4-year-old out on 8 busy street in care of a tiny baby. He is still to immature to be given that responsibility. But there are many more thin, which he could do for baby and the feeling that the baby is “his brother” as well as the parent’s child, give hipn that emotion of kinship which erases jealousy. All this can be started long before the baby is born so that the small brother or sister looks forward to the possession of a playmate and companion instead of looking for- ward to a usurper of his mother’s at- tention and affection. If the mother prepares the way the child will never have this eroding feeling of jealousy, which makes him unhappy and often leads him to misbehave merely in re- belliog against his new loneliness.

They're prophesying a glowing future for college grads in the talkies. It seems that holders of degrees have had the cream of the luck in the past. And something in the articulation which the college person possesses goes over in talkies. ~Albert de Sart and Richard Wallace of Paramount have been doing ?ome interesting experiments along this ine. Speech training, an inescapable part of every college routine, helps these aspirants from the field of higher edu- cation. University dramatic depart- ments will necessarily have to be pro- vided with sound recording apparatus in future, so that voice tests, made as part of the dramatic course, can be criticized authoritatively. From college life has come George Bancroft, whose work in talkies has been highly successful. Charles Buddy Rogers is another college boy who has made good in Movieland. Richard Dix and Richard Arlen are successes in the new medium. And Willlam Austin and Adolphe Menjou can lay some of their achievements at the door of their col- lege education. Although they come to the studio to begin the day's work at 8 o'clock in the morning and are often making a scene after the 5 o'clock hour has struck, pro- ducers feel that a director is doing well if he gets six minutes of actual footage in a working day. ‘This sounds a bit strange, but few pictures go over 144 minutes in the theater, and a good many do not ap- proximate that. Any picture takes 18 to 24 days to make, and this average for talkies runs nearer 24 than 18. There are two dozen reasons why a scene would have to be stopped after the signal to begin has been given. One of these is the responsibility of the actor. He may make the wrong ges- ture, enter on the wrong cue, or forget his lines. But, oh, the things the delicate mechanism can ‘do! Cameras buckle, synchronization fails, incid 1tal sounds from far parts of the set may come to the ear of the mixer sitting in his glass turret, or u$ strange ground noises may begin. - You've all heard them.
