LONDON, September 25 (N.AN.A) —The modern debutante is not satis- fled with a life of pleasure. She has found that work lends savor to amuse- metn and her mother, if she is wise, encourages her to take up some occu- pation as an antidote to the endless round of cocktail parties, balls and other entertainments that come her way once she has been presented. A number of girls returning to Len- don for the “little season” have chosen “jobs” to do this Autumn. Among them is Lady Grizel Boyle, Lady Glas- gow's daughter, who will possibly also learn to help with children. A’ prac- tical course in housekeeping is to be taken by several girls. Lady Howe's daughter, Lady Georgianna Curzon, is an excellent needlewoman and makes D. C., FRIDAY, SEP! Three on Waiting List to Get Cells As Prisoners Flee| Special Dispatch to The Star. RICHMOND, Va., September 25.— There is now room in the Chester- fleld County Jail for three of the six prohibition law violators who could | not be accommodated a short time | ago and had to be sent to their homes by the judge, who explained that he might be able to provide for them a little later. Three prisoners, evidently feeling that they were too crowded, re- | moved the mortar from enough of the brick wall to enable them to | make a hole large enough for them | to escape. The prison is old and the jafler, on learning of the escape, sald with disgust that anybody could get out of it with a penknife. | and bookkeeping has become popular. | A new kind of finishing school ha been opened on the Loire by the Hon. | Mrs. Pirie, Lord Sempill's sister. Here ordinary housework is taught in all its branches. Next year's debutantes will stand at the washtub, wield an iron and learn fine French laundering. They will also keep bees and learn | how to extract honey, as well as how | to grow flowers and vegetabies. | as to give the Government loan a pro- or 29, HYDE SEES FARMS SAVED BY U. S.

I'EMBER 1931, i | Farmers have been protected from foreclosure by the Government’s lien | uirements on Western drought loans, S:cretary Hyde declared yesterday. Gov. Shafer of North Dakota and Mecntana’s two Democratic _Senators, Walsh and Wheeler, among others, have objected to the provisions and sought | to_have them removed.

Hyde sald if a second mortgage were | accepted by the Government its loans would be in jeopardy in many cases and that the farmer would be saddled with an additional debt burden while the Government loans had served only to make the present mortgage holder safe.” “This would be relief for mortgage holders—not for farmers,” he said. “‘Our regulation requiring some par- fcipation in the first lien,” Hyde said, |® day—young men between the ages of | 20 and 35—and today Walter T.
