Gerard, former Ambassa- dor to Germany. “The modern girl is all right,” said Mrs, Gerard at the Ambassador to-day, “I like her, Neither because of nor in spite of her cigarette smoking, her sloppy galoshes and her roll-down hose. Those things ore no index to her real char- ucter, They are merely pass- ing fancies. “But the modern girl with her frankness, love of out- doors, wholesomeness in thought, suits me and { would not change ter for the mid- Victorian damsels with their pinched waists and their over- abundance of clothes and un- derabundance -* real moral- ity.” way and began their meal with R.

The men imprisoned in the garage were later released by their captors in time to arrive for the speeches, which fol- lowed the dinner, The feature of the after-dinner speeches was created by the soph din- ner chairman, Leslie M.

It is not your husband's fault that his cuffs get frayed and have to be turned while the shirt is still good. To be sure he gets the cuffs dirtier than any other part of the shirt, but it is the rubbing you do. getting the dirt out that wears the material. Most of that rubbing is not) necessary. Soaking in Rinso will get the cuffs just as clean without ! weakening a single thread. The rich, cleansing Rinso suds gently loosen all the dirt so that a thor- ough rinsing carries it off. If there is sometimes a fine line that is not entirely soaked out, rub lightly with dry Rinso, and | that too will disappear at once. | Make your husband's shirts | last twice as long. Save the wear| and tear of rubbing so disastrous to clothes, such a drain on your) own strength. 344 STREET Introducing New York’s Smartest TWEED SPORTS SUITS For Town and Country Wear 24.00 NEW YORK offers no smarter nor greater va- +% riety of sports suits than these—no finer tailoring, fit or finish, at their respective prices. ‘The Tweeds and Homespuns have a sha or smooth texture and are woven inspiring colors, novel effects, able persons are looking for effort to pay.
