The latest form of Indoor sport, to be ex plicit, is listening to the clink of coins dropped Into a savings bank— and making a duet of it. Reports In financial circles, In fact, are more romantic than economic, these days. One popular young couple who an nounced their engagement at a large tea given last January by the young lady’s mother, have opened a Joint account. Two little doves of love perched on the ices the day of the lea, but now by an ornithological phenomenon they have been changed into eagles. Golden eagles, Gabby supposes. The young lady’s brother, who is not engaged, but in a fair way to lie so, has struck up a Joint account, it is said, with his own Dulclnea, which leads us on to remark, If you’re not too entangled in the branches of the family trees, that her sister has ;.l.-o joined the ranks of the soon-to ll-wed and. evenings find her poring over “their” bank book with her fi ance. _A_ A DASHING Lothario with a pretty wit, Is to be the burthen of our eong. Singled handed he liaa raised a successful business and athletic reputation nad now It looks, sentimentally speaking, ns if "his turn may come next” and it's a risk we're reasonably certain even he can't be insured against. The past few weeks he has been In the east, and for the past few months a dark-eyed Junior leaguer has N* en there too, visiting on the eastern coast. Rumor has It he was also a guest of her hostess for a while, and In doing the theaters, and restaurants together they arranged the details of a marital alliance. IF there’s more than one way to skin a cat, there's more than one way to skin the other fellow. A baseball fan got the radio report at Fifteenth and Douglas Friday on a Habe Ruth home run. He beat It to a nearby corner where bulletins were being posted for a large crowd and placed a stiff bet on Babe (whose home run had not yet been received there). In a few moments the loser paid up and our pseudo hero walked off convinced that radio is the great cst invention of the age. -* GABBY no more than gets her mind settled about lome people than she has to resettle It. Of course. It is always dangerous if Gabby wants to be a successful sooth sayer to predict about a pretty girl, but pretty girls Just will ofTer grounds for prediction wuth the return of a collegiate light of the first brilliance and his entering on a new field of studies here the social waters have been considerably stirred up, and It 1« said he Is in a. fair way to upset a bright little love craft, only but lately afloat. A SHORT time ago a rumor of divorce swept the younger set and again scandal has the bit In Its teeth and Is galloping awtiy * wltb the names of another young couple. Gabby Is nodding her head, sadly but wisely, but It not surprised, for when they were married she hsp pened to he talking with the father oL one of the girl's friends. His daughter had been so shocksd by tbs University Lecture Course Offered Dr. Fred Morrow Fling to Speak on World Organiza tion at Unitarian Church November 8.

V "It Is perfectly natural that this love of the beautiful should demand some form of expression. The finding of an avenue for self expression 1* one of the best means of getting more full and complete enjoyment out of living. A taste for beautiful things does not come through a lavish ex pendlture of money—Paul Polret be lieves that rood taste hae little In common with money. Good taste is revealed In the choices we make of the everyday things with which we surround ourselves. "The wearing of beautiful clothes Is to the majority of women a very important means of self expression By beautiful clothes we do not mean the mode of the moment, the latest .deae from the horse shows or the opera, or the season's most popular colors and materials. Clothe#, to be truly beautiful, must be suitable and appropriate to the wearer. They must so enhance her personality that the beholder is moved to exclaim upon the lov< linrss of the woman her self, not upon the clothes she wears There la an old saying. "The way you appear speaks so loud 1 cannot hear what you say " The most beautiful clothes then, reveal high ideals of. beauty and of character. "Talent In dress is a rare gift but it !« possible for nearly every one to cultivate good taste in dress, only It must be done with thoughtfulness For most of 11s it requires s study of fine line and proportion; an under standing of ones silhouette, of the effects of dark and light best suited to us. of the colors best becoming to our complexion, and the materials end texture most appropriate to various purposes. "In addition to this, artistic dress ing requires that we understand our particular type of personality that we may choose lines, colors, materials best adapted to our individuality. With such a background of usable knowledge, dressing may become for one of us a real art—a mean* of growth and development In the appre elation of all heautiful thing* which *liall not only l<e a source of greater happlnes* to ourselves, hut bring pleasur* to other people /— - - Mrs. Howell Visits Her Sister •Rebecca West, a Brilliant Woman and Handsome in Julia Marlowe av, Says Mrs. Forman.
