‘tho«e notions without founda-,
■ 'the ones that women are
* mrSi- poor drivers, .can't keep.
eheck-book straight, go through

? V.-ii booths:
women-talk. , But it’s
aliquot -gossip. They, talk
SS their, kids, their household
Sms. their shopping expen
ences. the condition of • their
scalps, the advantages of one hair
style over another, etc.
That s no more gossip than the
talk that goes on in barber shops
~ such as local business news,
sports. pol:tics.
The women talk about their
every-day -interests, and the men
do the seine. •
PURELY A FA3LE
But for some reason or other,
the fable _ persists ‘ that in any
purely feminine gathering women
do nothing but gossip about other
women. . . '
To a certain extent,' thpt is true
of bridge parties—bu+1 }t isn’t, true
of beauty salons. When a woman
goes to a. beauty salon she is -in
terested in 'herself—and absorbed
n her own .problems.
So 95 per cent of her talk ir'
c ioout. hereef, a. subject forever
fascinating to any woman. And
about _ all the operator , has a
chapes to do is to listen and make
the proper sympathetic or admir
ing responses.

U. S. NEEDS TIME
ON DISARMAMENT
Exhaustive Look At Jap
anese, German Peace
Treaties Necessary
LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y„ Jan. 17.
(U.R) —United States represents- '
‘Ives will need several . more |
months of study before discussing;
.disarmament details. American
sources reported tonight. j
And before the United Stater j
agrees to disarm, it will want a!
good hard look at the completed j
peace treaties’for Germany and
Japan. The outcome of the Ameri-.
can request for sole control over j
the formerly Japanese mandated
islands in the Pacific also may af
fect disarmament talks, American
.circles, said. i .
The United States has asked the
United States Security .council to
delay debate over disarmament
procedure until Feb. 4. At that
time,, however, the. Unite* States
will have no new proposals—-not
even on procedure.
American: representatives have
devoted all- of their energies to
working out a program for inter
national- control of atomic energy,
and ‘will continue to ask that the
Security council make “some pro
gress” on this program before
plunging into the broader field of
general disarmament.
Light On Russia
They.sdid they-would be satis
fied now With merely an informal
paragraph-by-paragraph considera
tion of the program to see where
Russia stands. Russia and Poland
declined to discuss the proposals
while they were being debated in
the UN atomic ' energy commis
sion.- -
. American representatives ton
ceded they were ‘ left at the post
when Russia proposed immediate
preparation of a general, disarma
ment program. And the United
States, it was said, can not begin
to catch up until incoming Secre
tary George C. Marshall assumes
office and -studies the . issues.
Marshall, as' a former Army chief
of-staff, is sure to have ideas of
his own.
The Security ' council will vote
Monday on the American proposal
to delay discussion of disarmament
procedure until Feb. 4. Today’s
council meeting was devoted, to
eulogies for PedrO Leao Velloso,
Brazilian delegate who died yester
day-'

"Gabble's Landing" Sweepstake
Winner In Garden Club's Show
Viewing groups of camellias of

There ‘ were small camellias,,
clean cut and simple, in their wak
en beauty, in juktiposition with
large, lush red ones. In one of side
exhibits there was a particularly
lovely spray of the large, variegat
ed pink and white yellow- stamens
varieties' with tiny pink budding
laurel, arranged slightly off-bal
ance.
■ Inis first post-wfar show was an
excellent one and another bright
feather in the cap of the C ‘,ii Fear
Garden club’s achievements; re-]
calling their recent ‘‘Holiday
House”.
j The surprise of the exhibit and
perhaps it’s most finished piece
of work was the garden at the
back of the auditorium. There |
were Chinese Holly* trees, dwarf]
magnolias, camellias trees with,
lustrous blooms, cif deep red. pink
primroses and azalias and lacy
wrought-iron ■ white bench and
chairs in the. garden that was ro
ir'aniic and inspired.
