Gabby Says
TWO Omaha women, at least, have
been pretty thoroughly, frighten
-.1 during the last week. Natur
ally timid about staying alone, Mrs.
Carol Eelden and Mrs. Edwin Davis
decided, when their husbands both
left town on business trips lastXeek
to protect one another. Mrs. Davis
w as to spend several nights w ith Mrs.
Eelden and Mrs. Belden the remaind
er of the "might be lonesome” nights
with Mrs. Davis.
All went well until Mrs. Belden
returned to her home one morning
to find the front and back doors open
and R good many valuable articles
missing. During the night a burlar
had made a call.
Now Airs. Beldon and Airs. Davis
have decided that they are a protec
tion to one another but little or none
to the house left empty. Sympathetic
friends and neighbors are staying
with the two “widows” until their
husbands return.

IT TAKES the Central High school
girl to hurl defiance in the teeth
of Paris.
A group of them, which includes
Misses Virginia i^arte, Helen DeVore,
Ruth Sehwager, Helen Bramman and
Betty Craig, have been setting a style
their own. which Is rapidly being
taken up by their sister students.
They have decided that there shall
be no more low waistlines and the
belts on their frocks in consequence
ire fastened about them almost under
their arms.
Gabby thinks they are Haunting
their youth in the faces of those who
cling to a low waistline because there
isn't any other waistline left.
POL'DRECSE tables are the latest
frivolous word in furnishings,
Gabby hears.
They are just now arriving from
France, slowly following summer vis
itors who purchasedthem there for
themselves and their friends.
Poudreuses are charming, slender
legged pieces made of mahogany, with
tullpwood, satinwood and rosewood
inlay. Alarle Antoinette is said to
have designed the originals, which
are again the fashion.
A mirror set In the flat top is raised
and discloses little holders for
scents, rouges and powders. One tiny |
cavity is said to have held the black
patches with which the queen set her
creamy skin off to advantage.
Airs. Ben Wood has one in her
drawing room. She brought one to
Mrs. Alan Tukey, who has it placed
in her living room, whese it shows
off to advantage in the chintz-hung
apartment. Mrs. J. E. Summers has
one in a small reception room, for
the hurried guest to lake advantage
of, and Mrs. Henry Bohllug uses one
brought her from PhiIs by her sister,
Miss Elizabeth Davis.
ONE of the brand newest "Juniors"
in town, the scion of one of
Omaha's wealthiest families. Is
worth not only a world full of love
to his mother, but a huge touring car
and elutiorate silver tea service as
well, for ou the little fellow's birth a
week or so ago. ids proud father
rushed from jeweler to motor dealer
purchasing gifts for his wife as a ma
terial paeon of pi-aise,
is I
MISS GWENDOLYN WOLFE, a
visitor of the past week,
brought with her from the
east sets of necklaces, earrings and
tings which were the envy and de
spalr of her Omaha friends.
The earrings were fashionably large,
sr, large in fact that site left them off
at tea time just to give iter ears a
i o#t before dinner*
The sets were silver crystal, green
and white jade and pink and white
• arnelian.
One set of silver had been cunning
ly wrought Into little bells which
tinkled tiniiy as she moved.
IF you miss the vests—well!
Two of Omaha's budding young
business geniuses, graduates of
Elite Yale, are searching for a tailor,
not a tailor with .a mirrored empor
ium. but one who sits on a eto'ol all
day and retreats into the backroom of
the shop at noon to nibble a'meager
lunch from a paper bag. In fact one
to whom they can take a worn-out
pair of trousers and a vest and who
will presto—turn out a seemingly
new pair of trou. at little or not cost.
What happens to the vest, AH!
IP^n^^hus gone into tHo repairing of the
trou.
If these young men find this tailor
they will probably set a new style
In Omaha. Business suits — sans
vests.
