THE SUNDAY MISSOULIAN, SUNDAY MORNING, APRIL 10, 1938. Figures Bent Lie! Rand Picks the Ten Best mi Luiiiiii vmrm wtmwiM r. wm 1 mi mi ll -y MBfw 'I VVU fjr 10 3 1. Cobina Wright ISA 5 ISM V-N 6. -v Sallv Kand Duchess of Kent Zorina armcr Jessie Ann Corin costume which Jessie Matthews, appearing Sally calls them the "10 best undressed women," but that doesn't, mean, of course, that she intimates the ladies go about in a state of undress.

She merely contends that they have qualifications of face and figure "that makes addition of clothes totally unnecessary." And she has drawn her selections of feminine allure from spots as widely separated as the British royal family and the spotlighted stage of a burlesque theater thereby sticking her chin out with a daring as great as any she displayed behind her fans. And who are these ladies whom Sally so blithely singles out as being outstanding examples of physical perfection? Well, there's Marlene Dietrich, who knows without being told by Sally that legs is legs; and Eleanor Holm, whose bare legs and arms in a bathing suit are not only ornamental, but highly useful in swimming contests; and Mrs. William Rhinelander Stewart, beautiful society matron. Next in line among those pictured above is Zorina, an esthetic ballerina thinly clad for art's sake; then Frances Farmer, a movie actress whose allure is unmistakable; and New York. N.

Y. No one likes to think about the depressed condition of stock market figures, unemployment figures or factory production figures in these days of recession. Not so. however, Just plain feminine "figgers," as Sally Rand ought to know. Sally figured that the habit of picking the best-dressed women of the world lias long been overcovercd.

So now she has stripped the matter to its bare essentials, and makes her choices of the 10 women who don't need clothes to be beautiful. shows she doesn't need many clothes to be beautiful. Again from the ranks of society is Cobina Wright, a recent debutante who has been doing a bit of singing in Florida; and Adele Dixon, who also sings sweet songs. The Duchess of Kent, sister-in-law of King George of Britain, also is listed among Sally's selections, and, pictured at extreme right, is shapely Ann Corio, burlesque queen, who never made any pretense of dolling up in a lot of clothes to make herself alluring.

Sunday; At 10.30 a. I Jlarlcne Dictricli Post The modern trend toward simplicity is shown in the sinallness of reception, including none but family and intimate friends; and the very simple wedding breakfast or supper or afternoon collation. Clothes, too, are usually less elaborate than they used to be. Spats are almost obsolete, and gloves are worn by ushers only at, really formal weddings when the conventional cutaway coats and striped trousers are also necessary. informal weddings in small cities, and at almost all summer weddings the country, white trousers and blue coats are typical.

In communities where evening weddings are iashionable, tiie men of the bridal party wear full dress and white gloves. But at summer weddings, tuxedo coats and white waistcoats in very hot weather, white dinner coats i arc worn without gloves. other words, "tails" are supposed be laid away when straw hats are brought out. When straw hats are away, tails come back aagin. At a summer wedding in the country, where it has been agreed that tiie men of the bridal party are to wear white suits, these are ery effective wtien Hie whole wedding is white.

Tills means that the dresses and fiowers of th" bridesmaids, as well as those of the bride, white. All this white against, dpn.vt green is entrancing, but ushers in white, bridesmaids in coins and mix' decorations make a very mixed picture. A question I am constantly asked whether a t.ridc may wear a white dress and a veil when her wedding to be in the very earlv morning when not more than a score of people are to be present, or when it to take place in the rectory, instead of in church. The answer is that unless marriage is to take place an imwedding-hke- atmosphere, such in the office of a magistrate, it is always permissible that a maiden bride wear white and veil, Kor Small Nodding.

J. HAPPY HUNTING GROUND OPEN TO WASHINGTON Washington. At the gate to the Happy Hunting grounds to which spirits of the Irocjuois go there is always a lodge reserved for George Washington, according to legends of the tribe. At the annual religious ceremonies of the remaining Iroquois speakers mention the fact that Washington pledged the Indians their old homes after the Revolution, and showed them great kindness. In addition to tiie lodge Washington's spirit is offered the right to bring along his dog.

The Iroquois believe that dogs go to Heaven because of the love they show for human beings. CHIP PREVENTION.

"LITTLE GOLDEN AMERICA." By Ilya Iif and Eugene Petrov. No matter how well the reader may know his America, it is a new and refreshing experience to view it through the eyes of these two famous Russian humorists. Landing in New York city in 1935, they traveled by car across the United States to the Pacific coast and back.

Their comments on our customs, their sparkling humor and imbarbed raillery, their enthusiasms and wonder and their regrets at finding an absence of depth and richness of llf in our country make entertaining and thoughtful reading. "AEROBATICS." By H. Barber. This book has been designed as a text for the student flyer. Assuming that the student has a good preliminary understanding of such subjects as mete-orologj-, engines, aerial navigation, and so forth, this book is confined to work in the air.

It begins with the student's first flight lesson, and step by step follows from straight flying to various kinds of turns, spins, landings and other more difficult maneuvers. Full-page photographs aid the text. "FOUR GENERATIONS." By Naomi Jacob The breaking away of the j-ounger generation from the older becomes the themo of this story as we follow Emanuel, young, successful in his father's business and married to a beautiful woman whom he does not love and his rejection of his present life and his search for happiness and a career of his own making. With deep insight and sj'mpathetic understanding, Emanuel's relations with his father, with his wife and with the great singer who becomes the great love of his life are subtly interwoven into a story of romantic appeal, "POWDER SMOKE." By Jackson Gregory When young Jeff Cody rode down a steep, cutoff trail and suddenly rounded a line of trees into a clearing he came onto the body of a man, kicking out his last breaths as he swung from the limb of an oak tree. Then Jeff snapped into action, and, even though it meant leading a fight against Arlene's own father, he set out to clean out the gang of plundering, murdering thieves who had come to Wandering River.

"LIVING APART." By Ruby M. Ayers al young Clotilde refused to listen to advice that she could not be happy with a poor man, so she secretly married Michael Salter. But thla was soon followed by a separation, as he would not live on her money and had little of his own. Some years later when they meet again the tables have turned and Clotilde, now poor, faces Michael, a successful Inventor. With her usual skill and dramatic ability, Miss Ayers in an unusual story works out their emotional relationship.

"A HOME FOR Kttrs." By Mary Virginia Provines When Midge and Fltzhugh went to make their home on a fruit ranch in California they found life much different than they had expected. There were adventures with Indians, wild animals who visited the farm and catved damage, neighbors who became friends, and their work to save the crops. Older boys and glrl.s will find this a delightful itory. man and it is impassible to Invite all his parishioners to the rectory. Among the questions that I am most often asked is whether it is possible to think of having any reception at home when the decorations and menu are realiv too meagre to be worfh inviting the friends c.

the bride and groom to see or to share. The answer to this is, of course, that those who are their f-iends are certainly not coming to the wedding because they are interested in the decorations or the menu. They are coming because they are interested in the bride and groom and therefore want to be with them on their day of days, and to wish them happiness. After all, hesitant bride need merely ask herself: Would she rather be at the wedding of those whom she very much cares for, to give them her personal good wishes, to drink their health (it doesn't make much difference in whati and perhaps to take a piece of cake home to dream on, or would-she rather be left out as though she were a stranger? There is no question as to which the answer is, is there? For a Reception. Preparations for a reception amount to no more than choosing the best available background to stand against, and providing the simplest of refreshments.

First then, the background. This may be an arrangement of flowers or branches, or it may equaliy well be a pair of heavy curtains. Plain dark material is usually more effective than a light color or a figured design. And yet the very large branching, heavily flowered chintz curtains in green and gray and white and black that were drawn shut across bay windows at one wedding were very effective. The natural impulse of most ixto-ple is to stand against a mantel.

If this is done, then all the ornaments should be taken off and plain branches put in their place. Vines should also hang down from the shelf to hide the tire opening. Left as it is. a fireplace makes a very mixed background. A plain wall is really better, framed, if possible, with a rope of greens.

In other words, the bride should stand against a background contributing to the picture, instead of against the confusing background of an ordinary room. And now about food: There must or course be something in which to drink the health of the bride and oom. A fruit punch probably, as a substitute for champagne, and there must of course be a wedding cake, Phis tan be made at, home and iced al, any bakery. But no matter how well icing can be done in jour kitchen, a wedding cake is one confection i hat must bo professionally finished, and since pco-ple take very small slivers of fruit cake compared with the larger slices ol white cake, the reason for this substitute is not so much of an economy as many people suppose.

By Emily It is too late, I know, to help very much with the wedding preparations of the bride who is to be mar- rifd Easter week.

This interesting book for parents who would direct their child's reading begins with a thorough discussion of the child and his reading. It covers the history and growth of children's readings, gives the psychological value of fairy tales and Mother Goose stories, the character-building value of books and discusses the child who reads too much or not enough and the sensitive and over-emotional child. It contains a graded list by ages of books on all subjects which are recommended for children's reading.

"PROFITS FROM COURTESY." By Mary Alden Hopkins. Here we have a handbook of up-to-the-minute business etiquette. The book is the result of much research and conferences with the personnel directors of some of our largest business houses. Training In business courtesy is outlined, the psj'chology of manners and general rules are discussed, with chapters devoted to specific types of business, as office etiquette, retail store selling, gasoline stations, beauty parlors, and many similar occupations given special attention. "THE 1938 BOOK OF SMALL HOUSES." By the Architectural Forum.

Anjone interested in building a home will find much of interest in this new book by the Architectural Forum. Besides containing over a hundred illustrations and floor plans for various priced homes, a real estate agent, a mortgage banker, decorator, architect and builder discuss the many problems of the house-builder, common questions are answered and list of 40 "don'ts" are enumerated. "ACTION AT AQUTLA." By Hcrvey Allen. The author ot "Anthony Adverse," writing with his usual sustained drama and brilliant succession of scene, now gives us a magnificent story of the Civil war. More concentrated in background and time than hts former books, the story is shot through with the lives, loves, memories and tragedies of its unforgettable characters as we follow the pageantry of war.

We are brought to a realization of the necessity for preserving the Union, and in the love of stories the growth of character brought about by the frustrations and chaos of war can be seen in botli the older and the younger generations. "STORIES BEHIND THE WORLD'S GREAT MUSIC." By Sigmund Spaeth. Gleaned from biographies, histories and dictionaries of music, this book contains the outstanding facts and legends behind the composition of the world's great music. While it has been impossible to cover the entire field of music, such composers as Wagner, Bach, Liszt, Chopin and Beethoven and others of equally outstanding importance, and many foreign and American songs are included in these stories, all either historically accurate or frankly labeled aa legcndarj'. "THE MAGIC OF MONARCHY." By Kingsley Martin.

Writing without sensationalism or gossip or without fanatic reverence for the king and monarchies, the author of this book attempts to give a clear, concise picture of the situation In England today. He shows how Queen Victoria and King George were idealized until the people felt a "halo" had been placed about all monarchy, and follows it with the story of Edward VIII, who' was unable to carry on this tradition and England's reaction to his abdication. "THE RECTORY FAMILY." By Franklin Carter. ThP charm of this delightful book lies in the authentic picture ol life in a.
