her audience a few side-lights on

real literary and dramatic merit are
concerned, were often at the end

as shown hy attendance to the per-
formances; while some of the rela-
tively poorer plays would run for
a year or two.
Among the plays which are most
popular on Broadway this season,
she mentioned Mamba's Daughters,
Kiss the Boys Goodbye, and Abe
Lincoln in Illinois.
According to Miss Scheerer, the
stage production of the play You
Can't Take It With You is more
nearly in keeping with the original
ideas of the authors as set down in
the actual play. The movie, which
is appearing in one of the local
theaters soon, has many variations

Mrs. Flake was born and reared
in Australia and is a native of
Sydney. She is the sister-in-law of
Mrs. C. I), (iriggs of Greenville. At
the present time she is visiting in
the ITnited States with her husband
who is on a three months vacation.
Mrs. Flake drew a vivid picture

proverb "Where's there's smoke

besides, not dealing with fire ami
smoke, but with people. He illus-
trated further with "You can't teach

again one is dealing with people, not
dogs.
In Ezekiel is found this passage,
Mr. Patrick continued. "The fathers

The children of Israel, while in
Babylon, believed they were doomed

as the individual accepts responsibili-

The third responsibility is in the

people will even leave that to others
he declared. This was illustrated by
a story of a man who took all his
problems to his preacher and church

that is what they were for.

sheep. So much do they value the
industry that a fence has been
erected 1,000 miles long around the
sheep ranches to keep out the rabbits
which might eat the grasses that
the sheep need.
Mrs. Flake brought out the fact
that Australia had perhaps the most
peculiar animals of any place in the
world, yet they were the most harm-
less. Those she described were the
kangaroo, rabbits, koalar bears.
In conclusion she mentioned that
the Australians were very proud
of their beaches. "In fact she

Gloves are always an important
part of your costume. A distinctive
glove is fashioned with a strip of
Persian Lamb running from the cuff
down the third finger. It looks par-
ticularly well on blue suede. Ele-
gant gloves for day wear are made
from doeskin, suede, and pigskin
or peeary. They may be (dosed with
zippers or be simply pull-overs. A
clever touch is to wear a fabulous
ring on the outside of your glove.
You might also use your large cuff
bracelet, wearing it over the cuff of
your glove. It is very "frenchy
For colder weather, gaily embroid-
ered angora mittens are warm as
well as stylish. Evening mitts, with
eyelet embroidery, are very smart.
Long filmy black net gloves, some-
times decorated with sequins or bow
ties of velvet, are a great success
with period gowns.
Get your gloves out, and start
wearing them. It's smart to be
casual, but no matter how indiffer-
ent you wish to appear, you must
always wear gloves. It is said that
the French woman puts her gloves
on in her dressing room, the Ameri-

the hall, and the English woman
