“It’s Breakfast Together ° 7 Days a Week That Will Survive’’—Margaret Wilson “ Prof. Hall Thinks Fannie Hurst Type of Wedding Will £ Become Popular BUT ; ‘The President’s Daughter Says Average Man and Woman Prefer Old Fashioned Sort. By Fay Stevenson. ° Mg ‘Copyright, 1920, by The Press Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World) “Mr, Zuro as a ’ ’ i * o « wy z m4 ma © se Jacques Danielson one in the man and woman will cleave Yoiatives and friends, and bride’ days out of the week!” . This came from the lips of Miss Margaret Wilson. The message dropped from @ clear sky. Miss Wilson did not expect to be interviewed no, no, not at all, T sim- ply happened to meet her in this way. Monday morning 1) was sitting in the studio of Josiah Zuro, a musical di- rector at Seventh Avenue and 49th Street. We were having a Iittle chat for a future’ interview when there was a slight tap at the door and Mr. Zuro whispered, “It js my pupil, Miss Margaret Wilson, the catughter of our President.” There was a rustie of silks, @ faint fragrance of per- fumes and Miss Wilson ap- peared in the doorway. She wore &u dark blue tricolette / gown, a summer fur thrown gracefully oyer her shoulders and a large -black picture { hat, While Miss Wilson gives’ * the appearance of a slender ‘woman she has the well de- veloped chest and throat of a singer and when she speaks, her soft, musi- cal voice has a faveinating charm all of its own. “Am I on time?" Miss Wilson asked Mr. Zuro, and then seeing me she drew back a little. My newspaper instinct was aroused and I thought of the many possible subjects for an interview. I weil knew that Miss Wilson does not seek the public limelight and that she has declined all interviews for many a day. And yet there she was ready for a singing lesson, full of her own Ideas and views upon the woman questions of the day; and there was I ready to interpret her views for the readers of The Evening World. When Iwas introduced to her by “feature writer” @ ised over her eyes. right here that Miss Wilson has yer) pretty, sincere, blue eyes; eyes that look ,right at you. Deep feeling eyes and a soft, musical voice make a yery pleasing person- ality always: “{ used to be afraid of newspaper people” Miss Wilson laughed rather nervously, “but { think I have quite outgrown that now." For a few moments the musical di- rector, the singer and I spoke of the weather, the old standby when other topics fail. And then I asked Miss Wilson's view of women’s clothes and ~the H. C. of them. Showld women wear calico and gingham dresses, make their own clothes, or what was her opinion in regard to bringing prices down? ‘Again the shadow passed over her * eyes little shadow And let me sa cake and then bre HERE may be a few, very few marridjes like the Fannie Hurst- near future, but | think the average to the old-fashioned wedding with kfast together seven “Please!” she warned, “I have not been interviewed in ages. If I talk to you The Morning World will bo after me, the Evening Something Els2 and so it will go on and on.” . Again we returned to the beautiful spring weather. Then I spoke of the Fannie Huret- Jacques Danielson marriage and I saw Miss Wilson's lips twitch. What woman could keep silence upon such a subject? I iked Miss Wilson what she thought of Dr. Warren Hall's address on psychology before a gathering of women at the Hotel Commodore, when he said that he be- lieved that in a few years, possibly ten or fifteen, such marriages, week- end affairs, will be very common. “Dr. Hall predicts that France, Isclgium and even England will em- brace such marriages. Do you think America will favor them?” I asked Miss Wilson. The sinc mine. her blue eyes looked into She shook her head and then ps moved There may bea few, a very few women who will enter upon such contracts,” said Miss Wil- son, “but I believe the American woman rather enjoys that seven day breakfast arrangement. I think she even dreads to pack up for, a summer vacation and in many cases would endure the hot city pavements just to be op- posite her husband every day if it were not for the children who, she feels, need country air. 1 think the family life and domestic cirel will be like the little brook try, ‘they will go on for- — “Frobles)ror The Iralr.

TL alent among my readers do not wonder that they write nd ask me how to prevent this sure telltale sign of advancing old age. To begin with, cultivate calm and a pleasant disposition, as nothing is so conducive to sagging face muscles a8 a dreary disposition and Irrita- able temper. Then, too, a local tri ment is also ni and ‘blood circulation must be stinu- lated to these muscles to help put new life into them, because the mus- cles feed on the blood and requi fresh supplies of it every minute to keep them firm amg elastic as nature age and hot’ and cold applica- tions are also advised in treatment for sagging muscles and these may be applied at home with great benofit. Electric vibratory massige applied lightly to falling, loose muscles will also prove 4 valuable aid in stimu- lating the blood supply to the parts, and this should always be light, upward and circular the same as hand massa Never make the mistake of apply- ing hot water to falling muscles un- dess you immediately follow this by using very cold water, and the appli- cation of some cracked ice would be even better. The hot water is ysed merely to cause reaction and those who desire may eliminate it from the treatment altogether Never neglect your stretching exer cises for the neck and throat and roll and twist the head around on the shoulders for several minutes at in- tervals during the day In between these treatments pinch the skin Ughtky between the fingers and work the flesh around gently. Avoid fatigue, or at least looking tired, and try to keep the corners of the mouth up to help ward off sag- ging muscles in face and chin, Bat done in a rection, the lower face and neck in cold water at night, after five minutes of heag rolling exercises, and then y massage around th parts in up- ward and circular movemen another five minutes with fin, nointed with cold cream. Remove ex awe With @ finish with another cold w bath, Try this simple treatment for a faw months—everv night—and you a HIS complaint seems to be prev- will achievé the desired results far nd I beyond your expectations.

France Has Become Decollete Beyond the Decimal Point — ~-Nothing Left for Censors to Cut Out. ‘ By Neal R. O’Hara. * Copyright, 1920, by The Press Publishing Co. (The New York Bventng World). HE latest styles in Paris show ‘which side won the war. While the Germans carry a heavy burden the Parisionnes have nothing on their shoulders but shoulder Straps. The big results of the con- fitet are that Alsace-Lorraine and decollete gowns have been restored. YOU COULD PACK A COMPLETE The Frénch 75's.are now silent on the battlefields, but the perfect 36's are busy on the boulevards.. France is her old self again, with a dash of rouge on either cheek. The French dames are now fight- ing for recognition with their backs to the public. You only have to glimpse the gitls to know that when France makes sacrifices she begins at the neckband and works down. ‘The janes are certainly showing their backbone. Not since von Kluck cut the lines in 1914 has the French rear been thus exposed. ‘This year the shoulder straps are more important because they hold up » leas. The Paris gown is approach- ing its zero hour. Honestly, the apring frock looks like the designers had struck for shorter skirts and’the waist makers had walked out in a \body. There wouldn't be any waist at all except it was needed to attach the label. France has become decollete beyond the decimal point! And the low cut models have caused all kinds of astigmatism among the stags. ‘The Paris gowns are all right for American consumption or any other disease that requires you to be ex- posed to the air, but otherwise they are nix! Scant as they are, thi imported models are a little too much for « free-thinking country. The ultra modes look like Paul Poiret had tried to give ua the last word and somebody cut it off short. The Statue of Liberty is the only article CASE, AND STILL HAVE ROOM FOR AN EYEBROW PENCIL, 4esigned in France that has on enough clothes this year. ‘The censors never hig to bother Paris, for a very simple a censor’s job is to cut out all Ridden meanings between the lines, and =~ there is nothing hidden im Paris clothes and nothing that really could be cut out. While the sitkworms PARIS WARDROBE IN A VANITY are striking for an eight-hour day all Paris has gone on ration cards. Each dame is allowed twelve ounces of clothes per season. If that isn’t‘ enough they're allowed by law to On some extra perfume. : , But the worst is on the-way! The bathing suit architects, following‘ their recert one-piece conference, | have decided on open coverings,! openly arrived at. The 1920 creation reminds you of another creation—the one made famous by Adam and Eve.: In the new line of bathing suits the proper styles are all improper, May*’ be the suits can't stand the water, but they certainly go great in econ-: omy waves, ‘The bathing suits will be made of silk, which clings to e figtre Iike an auctioneer. The demand has de- creased for two-piece suits since the’ dames asked to know where the sec-' ond plece went. There's only one’ trouble with ‘em—they’re sure to be’ ruined on the first rainy day. But . otherwise the suits are first class, | which means two cents for every ounce, A four-cent stamp will cover and carry any suit. The warm weather modes simply prove the Kaiser was the world’s leading sucker, The Kais wanted to reach Paris in time for Christmas, when all the summer styles are in moth balls. If Willie’s secret service had only tipped him off straight he'd have tried to arrive in mid-July. July is when Dame Fashion has a holiday‘ in half-holiday attire.

Eva Ter- williger was asking me yesterday when the Cackleberry girls might visit me again—Eva is just as old as Irene Cackleberry and just about as young as Gladys Cackleberry.” “She has a duplex age then—M| Terwilliger?” Mr. Jarr remarked, “Well, the Cackleberry girls are twenty-one and twenty-two. or course, that means they'll both stay nineteen for four or five years. And Eva Terwilliger is just twenty-one years and six months old—she can say she's nineteen for a while yet. But, then, Eva is a blonde; and blondes hold their ages better be- tween twenty and thirty, I think that’s because a blonde doesn't worry as much as @ brunette, So that's why you never see blondes having gray hair like brunettos, A brunette wor- ries more because she sees her gray hair first, A blonde may have more gray hairs than a brunette; but, knowing they won't be noti a blonde doesn’t worry.” “I thought you didn't want the Cackleberry girls to come over from Philadelphia and visit you any more?” Mr. Jarre remarked, having no opinion on grayness and worry. “If I remember rightly, you said that the Cackleberry girls had the worst man- ners of any girls you ever saw, and that their behavior was very forward and that you did not wish to assume the responsibility of having to an- swor to their mother—now Mrs, Ber- nard Blodger—in case anything hap- pened to them." Nothing e happens to them," said Mrs, Jarr, “Besides, Mrs, Blod- ger is one of those mothers who shut their eyes like a duck in the sand— no, roll their eyes like an ostrich with 1d in a thunderstorm-—well, er it is, she's one of the kind to know except doesn’t want that what she has to know.” “J the same, you sald you didn’t mine want the Cackleberry girls on your hands again,” Mr. Jarr repeated, “Now, you mind your own bust- ness,” said Mrs. Jarr. “You are get- ting so old and grumpy that you. don’t want any young people around you with their merry ways.” “The merry ways cf the Cackle- berry givls are to fight each other and snap at each other every minute they are together when no eligible man is around!" Mr. Jarr insisted. “They accuse each other of stealing . beaux, jewelry and powder and paint”— “Oh, don't be so inquisitive when young girls are around! There are @ lot of things you take too much’ notice of!" cried Mrs, Jarr, rallying to the Hefense of her sex in its maid- enly manifestation, “Besides, I might want to go to Philadelphia some time, , and I could stop at their mother’ Mrs. Blodger’s, So I'll write the gti it will be all right for them to come over, Besides, Eva Terwilliger has a new beau—well, it’s no affair of mine, Yet Frank Bilson has a business of his own and he has an automobile and will come into more money when his uncle dies—st#ll it's no affair of “What do you mean, yours?" asked Mr, Jarr, “Why, if one of the Cackleberry girls steals him away,” replied Mrs, o affair of Jarr, and she sat down to write the invitation to the fray.
