Oxfords with fairly high leather heels are the favored shoe to wear with street sults this Spring.

For afternoon and evening the strapped shoe remains in fashion, but the opera pump—without straps, of courpe—has certain advantages. For one thing it contributes to the long un- broken line from toe to hemline thatels 80 desirable with the longer skirts.

For the girl or woman on a limited dress allowance we would suggest three pairs of shoes this Spring. One for street wear. With the brown suit or coat these shoes should be brown, with dark blue, navy blue or black. Then there should be a pair of afternoon shoes—of black or possible beige.

JESSE W. SPROWLS. Humor. ‘When you are in a good humor, you are at ease with your environment. You have no real worries for the time being. You find it comparatively easy to laugh things off. As this world goes, laughter has settled more disputes than all the logic men have been able to concoct. If a League of Nations ever amounts to anything, it will have to find some way to keep the nations in good humor. Fat, prosperous and intelligent peo- le are the ones who find most to ugh about. They enjoy a feeling of superiority, which causes them to dis- regard a lot of things that make grouches out of the alling and the poor, Some of these days a genius will come along with a mental test based on humor, He will be able to measure your intelligence in terms of the things you consider funny. A great deal of our so-called race humor is merely crude observation of the behavior of strangers in a,strange land. Europeans can tell you a 1(;; ?f al- adjustment of any sort is humorous to the fellow who is properly adjusted. A great deal of the world’s humor is due. to the fact that people and things get out of place now and then. with all one's evening dresses. | Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. March 27, 1792.—The first license to sell liquor in the new Federal metrop- olis, under the governmental powers conferred on the Commissioners of the Federal District by the Maryland Legis- lature, was issued by the Commissioners today to William Venable. It authorized | Washington for the term of one year | unless suspended or voided.” | Until Congress “shall otherwise pro- | vide” the Maryland Legislature is the law-making body for that portion of the Federal District lying on the Mary- land side of the Potomac River. Varioys laws necessary for the preservation of order and the trdnsaction of business in the Federal District have been enacted by the Maryland Legislature and are in full effect, since Congress has not yet exercised its authority over the District. ‘The Commissioners have been author- ized by the Maryland law-making body to exercise certain governing functions 1 the Federal metropolis, among them being the authority to issue liquor licenses. Another of these functions, which is now being exercised, is the opening of streets in the new city. The power of granting liquor Heenses in Georgetown, under the Maryland law, remains in the county court. ‘The Commissioners have not yet done much in the way of opening streets. There is very little money available for this work and it seems likely that only a few “passageways” between the trees and bushes will be opened up in various directions for the present. It is under- stood that the Commissioners have under consideration a plan to instruct the general overseer of labor to have “breadth of two perches done in the middle of the Avenue from the Presi- dent's palace to the Capitol.” ‘The Commissioners are also planning to have built a stone bridge across Rock Creek on a line with K street, as proj- ected in the new city, and in further- ance of Maj. L'Enfant’s plan of provid- ing an outlet for the post road through the new city. Rock Creek has a broad op ing that begins at the base of the ridge north of K street. The line of the latter street at this point passes entirely through the water and in order to make a bridge serviceable it will be necessary to build a causeway. It is hoped that nothing will be done to injure the navigation of Rock Creek. It is proposed to ask the Maryland Legislature to prohibit the erection of weirs and hedges in the creek within two miles of the Potomac River in order to keep it open for boats that distance from its mouth. iect to it in cooler weather. Incidentally it should be remembered that it is & plan to select shoes a half size ger—or possibly a little wider—than usual for wear during the warmer ‘weather. At first glance shoes seem much less ornate than they have been.

BY J. P. GLASS. “ABOUT THE TIME THE BILL WAS TO BE PRESENTED HE HAD A HABIT OF DISAPPEARING.” Beauvilliers was one of the first of the great restaurateurs. He flourished early in the nineteenth century, when the revolution had ush- ered in & new era of eating in France, Prior to this, all the great chefs had been attached to noble houses. But now, partly from a craze to imitate the Eng- lish public eating house; partly because Paris was filled with republican legisla- tors who had no domiciles, and partly because the rich secular and clerical no- bility no longer was able to support rich establishments, restaurants became the rage. “Beauvilliers,” says Abraham Hay- ward, the famous writer on epicurean history, “was placed by acclamation at the head of the classical school of cook- ery.” This is to say that he exhausted the old world of kitchen products. great psychologist. 5, when the allied generals of Europe and many diplomatic agents were in Paris as a result of the ousting of Napoleon, his place at No. 20 Rue Richelieu was the mecca of numerous distinguished diners, whe were ensnared almost as much by the peculiar attractiveness of his service as by his foods. For Beauvillicrs made it a point to be- come personally acquainted with all the marshals and generals of taste, without regard to nationality. And in order that he might establish a contact of felicity he learned as much of the language of each as was necessary. He was aided by a remarkable memory —one so apt and so true that after 20 years he would remember instantly a person who had dined with Rim only two or three times. ‘Without appearing to do so, he made ‘himself the patron of his patrons. In- stinct told him if strange parties pos- | sessed distinction. He made it a point to approach the table of such persons at the ing and to place himself gracefully at their disposal. He would perhaps discourage the ordering of one dish, recommend another and even send for a third of which no one thought. And he would order wie from a par- ucinhr cellar of which he alone kept a key. this was done with an air of sub- lime benefaction. a mode just made - for .

The mother of a large family of chil- dren really has less to do to make use of last season’s clothes because she can usually just pass the things down the line. Little girls and boys dress so much alike nowadays that little sister’s clothes will often do in some way for little brother and little brother’s clothes can always be turned to account in little sis- ter's wardrobe. It is more difficult where clothes must | be let out and lengthened and otherwise made to do for a child who has out- grown them. This is the time when | many mothers are looking over the last year's supply of Winter things, hoping FEATURES.' against hope that some of the old things will do. ‘There is really nothing you can do about stockings. If they are the least bit short they should be discarded. Woolen drawers and shirts can often be made large enough for another sea- son. If the bands are tight but the drawers are otherwise large enough just set the garments on new bands and they will answer the purpose. The knit- ted wool will spread sufficiently to go into the larger bands. If they are a little too short you might try setting them on rather deep bands. Winter union suits can often be en- larged sufficiently by setting a band of cotton flannel neatly about the region of_the belt. If shirts are too tight in the body and the sleeves, a strip an inch or two wide can be set in from the end of the sleeve on the inside of the sleeve down under the arm and from thence to the bot- tom of the garment. This strip may be made of soft knitted material or might be taken from an old discarded suit of flannel underwear. Lengthening frocks is not such a dif-: ficult task as it used to be. If you wishv: you may buy a piece of new material in7 contrasting but harmonious color and: make a band, in the form of an applied. hem around the bottom of the nmi Some of the same material may then be’ used to give a little cording or facing! at sleeves and neck and so make the; applied hem seem to be part of the} decorative scheme.
