Love’s Awakening By Adele Nasry Underwood's Suddenly Ac- quired Formal Attitude Toward Liatian Lesves Her Bowildered, Involuntarily I glanced at Lillian as Mother Graham asked her to ac- company her on the after-luncheon drive in the new car. 1 found her eyes fixed on her husband with an oddly hesitaut and puzzied Jook which increased my bewllderment at | her reaction to Harry's sudden for- | mal courtesy of manner toward her It was plain she was waiting for his | comment before giving an answer | and this hesitancy was so at varian with her usual hearty off-hand de- | cisions that my subconscious side glance became a frank and astonish- | ed stare. I am sure Mr. Underwood did not see the expression on her face, for he gave her only the most perfunc- | _‘ tory glance as he said: “Do come with us, Lillia sure it would do you good." His voice and manner were siill those which he might have used to | Princess Olina's mother werc 1 august personage a guest at the farmhouse, and again 1 saw a hurt, bewildered look shadow Lillian's | eyes.

Therc were some eplendid strong bulrushes growing in the water and the water was about two feet deep. Right in among these rushes was just the place for the foundation of his house At first, because he was so late in bullding, he had planned only a small house. But as he worked and found material close at hand he decided to have a big house. “T'Il have the biggest hous: I've ever had,” said he, talking to himself.

The wait is only beginning—and it's uke- 1y to last for two years. Paul, a tall, muscular lad of 20, is one Boy 8cout ameng the nation’s hundreds whom Comman- der Richard E.

No one read with more interest and anxicty of the careful prepara- tions that Commander Byrd made in outfitting the City of New York and its crew than did Mrs. Siple, A mother's intuition told her that, of the six scouts selected for the final eliminations, Padl would be the one to go. While the final tests were being given in New York, friends found Mrs. Siple smiling. “Yes, we heard night,” she said. first In the physical examination. We are very proud of him. If he gets to go it will mean very much to him.” Then the news of Paul's selec- tion, Mir. Riple, 4 machinist, took it Jovially, slapping Paul on the back on the way home. Mother Siple sgid little. She was too busy pack- ing. Gifts poured into the home from organizations of the First Paul was a worker, and Mother Siple looked after them. Not until mother and father were at the pier, waving to the fad- ing figure of their son did she con- fess to even a tinge of anxiety and then her words were more of faith than anything else, “It he doesn’'t ceme back,” she from Paul last “He came out | said to her husband, “it will be the first time he failed in any- thing.” She was remembering when she sald that of how Paul led in tests of seamanship while out in the troop boat en Lake Erie where he held a position equal to first mate. She was remembering the ease and confidence he displayed in passing those challenging tests that made him an Eagle scout. Now while Paul is moving seuth- ward to the land of ice and mys- tery, Mother Siple is planning for his futuve. She wants him to com- plete his work at Alleghany col- lege, Meadville, Pa., and he has promised her he will. That will take a year.

When ‘he gets to New Zealand we may correspond with him. After that I don't know. Perhaps they will relay radio messages. T am not afraid.” Chinese Women has Want Sexes Educated In Same Schools. Shanghai, Sept. 29 (M—China's womanhood has come out in faver of co-education. Nanking's national educational conference opposes it. The Amalgamated Committee for the Upholding of Women's Rights demands that in education, as in all other things, there should be a standard of equality between men and women. An announcement of | the women's committee says: “Since the May movement there | has been a general demand for men and women, this being a subject which has been approved by all the people. At a meeting of the national educational | conference, a resolution was passed opposing co-education in colleges and middle schools and recom- mending the stoppage of the co-edu- | cational movement in China in all institutions in which the system has been introduced. News of this v:as received by the peeple with considerable surprjse and suspicion. Our women folk have been thrown into a state of alarm and anxiety. “The purpose of introduction ; ef ce-education in China is to atford better educational facilities te women and to place their standard of education en a higher basis. The system has been in vegue several years and young men and young women have lived on terms of | equality, | “Although it has been difficult to oild certain evils, the results at- tained, on the whole, have been most satisfactory. The system therefore should not be ended now. “In certain provinces boys and girls have been taught in separate schools.. This should net be the case.

Although I have made portraits of many great men and women, have photographed still life and {l- lustrated storics, most of my work in camera studies has been with beautiful women. Ziegfeld show- girls, movie and stage stars, soclety girls, and professional models have Lrought probably twenty distinct types of beauty before my camera. Yet, it I were asked to name the one that I considered lovelier than all the rest, I should have to ac- knowledge defeat. My favorite model is Naomi Johnson, now featured in a Broad- way production. Miss Johnson is my “Greuze” model because she combines many of the lovely fea- tures to be found in the master- pleces of the French painter. A delicate, lovely head set upon a yeung form that combines’ fem- ininity and athletic strength. Wavy, chestnut brown hair, level brows and soft grey eyes. Breadth between' the eyes, a straight nose with sensitive nostrils and well defined lips that curve at the cor- ners, suggest a sense of humor ond intelligence. Her skin is creamy in coloring and she is of medium height. Girls of Miss Johnson's type end coloring should use a medium rachel powder with just a dash of rose in its foundation. A soft, raspberry shade of rouge, placed a little lower on the cheekbones and worked carefully to the cen- ter of both cheeks, is an admirable way to bring out the natural com- tour, A medium lipstick, resem- bling the natural color of healthy lips should be used. Miss John- son wears her coiffure low, ofer the ears, and swirled about the nape of her neck. 1 know of no type that has a greater range of colors to choose from than the Greuze beauty. Pos- sibly every shade, with the excep- ion of olive greens, harsh purples and mustard yellows look well on her. French and steel - blues, golden brown, grey and beige are exceedingly becoming for daytime wear. And she should adopt soft chiffons and tulle for evening wear. o CREAM TOMATO ‘To prevent cream tomato soup from curdling, put a pinch of soda into the tomato pulp when you heat it, have both the milk and the toma- to the same temperatuge. and mix the tomato into the milk.

(P—8tatesmen who went home after the signing of the Kellogg pact to outlaw war are to hear further from the group ot determined women who talked an equal rights trcaty and were arrestad at Rambouillet when they sought to present their argument. The Committee on International Action has permanent headquarters in France in the fifteenth century chateau at Augerville-la-Riviere, where lives Mra, Oliver Hasard Perry Belmont, president of the National Woman's Party of the United States. Mra, Belmont is leader of the group of . American feminists who want equal rights ith men by means of a treaty, Mrs. Belmont is now.a resident of France, having disposed of her American homes, both showplaces, at Néwport, Long Island, and in Rhode Island. Her resson is that she wants to be in Eurepe, the present feminist iront. She says: “The international as- pects of the equal righta question are becoming more and more Im- por(lnl." Mrs, Belmont goes back and forth between a FParis houss and her chateau at Augerville. All kinds of feminist irons are heated in the fires at Augerville. French militants visit there te get enceur- agement in their plans for gaining the vote tn Franee. England's Six Point . group, headed by Lady Rhondda, & warm personal frisad of Mrs, Belmont, is acquainted with Augerville. While the Committes on Inter- national Action was keeping equal rights and feminists wréngs be- fore prime ministers and ambagsa- dors in Paris during ‘the Kellogs pact signing, Mrs. Belment was in telephonic communication with them ‘from Augerville. ‘Viscountess Rhondda, England’'s business-wo- man-peeress, also has & heme in France. It is near St. Raphael, Both Lady Rhondda and Mrs. Bel- mont have made substantial money sifts to feminist causes. Mrs. -Bel- mont gave the National Woman's Party its headquarters bullding In Washington, valued at more than $100,000. Mrs. Belmont's chateau, which she purchased in 1926, has bcen restored to its original fifteemth century glory. It is furnished with a valuable collection of paintings and Gobelin tapcWries. Many treasures from Marble House, New- port, and Beacon Towers, Long fJsland, are here. The chateau was bullt and occupied first by the finance minister of Charles VII, who raised the funds for Joan of Arc’s campaigns. Mrs. Belmont has caused a copy of a statue contemporancous with Joan's lifetime to be placed op- posite the village church just out- side the chateau gatea. iArmy and Navy Debs Often Lose Debuts Washington, Eept. 29 (M—Net all the soclety debutantes scheduled for coming out parties this fall and winter will actually get to par- ticipate in those joyous occasiens of lights, music and flawers.
