(ashion tips,
hen to wear gloves? Today
e are many informal occasions
n they are not needed. But
plan to wear them on the
ta of a large town or it you
nd the theater, opera or con-
in a large city; going to and
church; at ceremonies such
eddings and (unerals; attend-
(ormal luncheons, dinners, re-

may remove them whenever you
wish, except at formal dances,
dinners and receptions. Here they
are usually kept on until you wish
to eat.
And what about (abrlc? Gloves
are made ot both leather and (ab-
ric for all occasions. Thin white
kid or suede leather is considered
most formal, particularly for
above-the-elbow gloves for even-
ing wear. The much less expen-
sive (abrir gloves in these lengths
are also correct, except for ultra-
formal occasions. For ordinary
daytime wear, kid, doeskin, cha-
mois, string, suede, antelope, or
(abric gloves are suitable; for
sports, pigskin, deerskin, woolen
or string with leather palms are
recommended.
Now about length? One sate
rule is always to have your glove
meet your sleeve, therefore, with
a three-quarter sleeve wear a
midarm glove; with an elbow
sleeve and elbow - length glove.
This is a sensible practice i( your
arms are not your best points. But
if you have pretty, rounded arms
and smooth elbows, there's no rea-
son why you shouldn't wear wrist
or bracelet-length gloves with al-
most any length sleeve. The one
thing to ovoid is a too-short gap
between glove and sleeve that
looks unintentional, as if the sleeve
had shrunk.
Beige and grey co-star as the
newest fashion for gloves this
spring. White gloves may be worn
when there la aomething else white
in the costume. For InaUnce, if
you are wearing a white hat with
a yellow coat, white glovea would
be correct. Remember that con-
trasting colors always call atten-
tion to your handa.
What is a ‘one-button", "two-
button" glove? These terms are
simply a measurement of length,
starting from the base of the
thumb. A one-button glove meas-
ures one inch from the thumb; a
two-button, two inches, and so on.
Here in terms ot "buttons" are
the rnost popular glove lengths;
shorty, or wrist length, two but-
tons; bracelet length, four buttons;
midarm, 8 buttons; crush, 10 but-
tons; elbow, 12 buttons; opera, 16
buttons. Gloves should always (it
like a glove.

Harmony Club Meets In
The Joe Walker Home
The Harmony Club met in the

ruary 14. The meeting was called
to order by the president, Mis.

the club to scnii out written invi-
tations inviting people to the

and Mrs. J, B. Bishui were elect J
to membership in the club.
Mrs. Johnnie Martin was in
charge ot the program entitled
"Romance and Marriage", In the
year book. Mrs. Martin tulked
‘about Claude Debussy and what
an enormous debt modern com-
posers owe to this Frenchman. He
was among the first to turn
against the German romantic
music in the standard repertores of
much of Debussy's music is in the
standard repertories of orchestras,
singers, and pianists. Among his
best known works are the orches-
tral Nocturnes, his piano preludes,
and images. Mrs. Kenneth Gleg-
horn played "Claire de Lune", and
Mrs. Felix Copeland played "Girl'
With the Flaxen Hair."
The next composer, Mrs, Martin,
discussed was Richard Wagner.
She told about him being familiar
with the stage from earliest child-
hood as hs stepfather was an ac-
tor. Wagner first wrote plays and
poetry, and at the age of 15 decid-
ed to set his plays to music and
his early productions were re-
markable for the grand scale on
which they were planned rathen
for any great merit. The operas
"Flyng Dutchman", "Tannhouser”,
and "Lohengrin" were mentioned
and Mrs. Martin gave' a review of
"Tannhouser"’. Mrs. Noel Cren-
shaw sang "Pilgrims Chorus",' and
Mrs. Debs Wilson sang "Evening
Star1*, from Tannhouser. Bjoth

ed the “Prize Song’" from the

man" and the "Bridal March",
from "Lohengrin".

freshments carrying out the Valen-
tine theme were served to 18
members by the hostess.

Blakley And Towor Load
In U. S. Sonata Campaign
Senator William A. Blakley of
Dallas and John G. Tower of Wich-
ita Falls are the leading candidates
in the U. S. Senate race according
to a private poll conducted by
the Belden Associates, well known
Texas research organization.
The statewide survey announced
Saturday also showed Blakley is
the favorite in several possible
runoff combinations.
Attorney General Will Wilson
of Dallas ranked third In Belden's
poll. State Senator Henry B. Gon-
zalez of San Antonio was fourth
and Congressman Jim Wright of
Fort Worth was fifth.
Blakley leaders said the poll
bears out their contention that
Blakley, now serving an interim
term in the Senate, is 'the' lead-
ing Democrat in the race," They
declared he will ^substantially lead
Republican Tower or any other
candidate."
In a Blukley-Wilson runoff,
Blakley would lead with 40 per
cent to the attorney general's 33.
If Binkley and Wright should
be in a runoff, Belden's poll show-
ed Blakley would win with 54 per
ctent, Wright's runoff strength
was 15 per cent; undecided, 31.
One of the Interesting findings
was the relatively small undecid-
ed vote for this period in a state-
wide campaign.
In a comparison of all candi-
dates’ names on a "recognition"
basis, Blakley and Wilson were
equally well known. Eighty-one
per cent of persons polled were
familiar with Blakley's name; 81
per cent with the name of the at-
torney general, who has just re-
cently made his third statewide
race for that office. Tower was
next in "voter recognition" with
76 per cent; then Gonzalez, 60;
Wright, 47; Maury Maverick Jr.
of San Antonio, 46. Other can-
didates showed little or no recog-
nition.
Here is how candidates ranked
on a percentage basis in first
choice among voters according to
Belden’s survey;
Barker, 0 Blakley, 20; Brooks,
1; George, 0; Glover, 0; Gonzalez,
9; Lea, 0; Maverick, 2; Posey, 0;
I Roberts, 1; Smith, 0; Tower, 23;
Tredway, 1; Wilson, 15; Wright, 6.
Oh, Those Birds!
No one knows for sure how the
name of Valentine came to be as-
sociated with the day on which
lovers send tokens to one another.
One popular theory is based on
the belief throughtout Europe in
the Middle Ages that the birds be-
gan to mate on February 14.
Wrote Chaucer;
"For this was Seynt Valentine’s
day
When every foul cometh
ther to choose his mate.”
