Suggests New
Line of Export ternad
America might be more
than our trade and diplomatic mis
sions, in which he is inclined to be
lieve we aren't getting anywhere.
South America has long had
the idea that we were a nation
of hard-boiled money-grubbers.
Any creditable performance in
the arts, he believes, will be our
best line of export. He said he
found the Argentines most gen-
erous and appreciative hosts.
Once they find you haven't an
extra ace in your cuff and you
measure up to their standard of
propriety, they wear their
hearts on their sleeve.
Incidentally, Mr. Jagel's singing
makes audiences weep, but no one
meeting him ever feels sorry for
him, He is a busines compact
Brooklynite, formerly an actuary
with the Mutual Life Insurance com-
pany, long before he took his perch
in the old red plush aviary, where,
on occasion, he still hits high C.
As, an actuary, young Mr Jagel,
charting other careers, began to
think of his own career. He tossed
his insurance job out of the window,
found a backer, sang in movie
houses up and down Broadway and
proved to all and sundry that he
had a voice. He studied with Porta-
nova in New York and with Cala-
dini in Milan. Making his operatic
debut in Milan, in “La Boheme,”
he hit Rodolfo's high C with a bull's
eye that greatly improved Italo-
American relations. He sang for
four seasons in Italy, before making
his New York debut as Radames,
on November 8, 1927. He knows
about 40 roles, and 26 of them he
can sing offhand and on the slightest
provocation,
With the precision and clarity
of a man trained in business, he
tells you of the superiority of
our South American competitors
in their specialty of quid-pro-
quo trade economics. Hence,
his talk of “cultural penetra-
tion” isn’t just ivory tower stuff,
If Secretary Hull could sing as
well as Mr. Jagel can talk in-
ternational trade, he, too, would
be in the Metropolitan,

ERE'S an encouraging word to
the woman whose wardrobe up-
keep must needs be held down to a
limited budget. The skirt with con-
trast tops leads the style program
this season. With the separate skirt
or simple foundation dress and a
flock of flattering sweaters, jackets
and blouses tuned to occasion you
can dress as well as the next one
and not be extravagant especially if
you “make your own."
Here's hoping the suggestions of-
fered in the accompanying illustra-
tion will prove an inspiration to get
busy sewing, knitting and embroi-
dering on a wardrobe of pretty
things that will carry you trium-
dress standpoint.
Let's start with the rigift skirt
to wear with the right top accom-
paniment. It is easily possible to
carry on a well-dressed appearance
with two skirts in one's wardrobe,
a wool or crepe for routine wear
plus a velvet or handsome crepe or
slipper satin weave for more for-
mal wear. However, you can go as
far as you like in laying in a supply
of skirts and then not have too many
if you go a lot. A tweed, a colorful
plaid, a pleated-all-round type, a
smartly fashioned crepe or satin for
day with a floor-length velvet or
crepe for evening formality, are
none too many.
Of course, with your tweeds and
utilitarian sweater. The model pic-
tured to the left in the group is eas-
ily knit. You will love it because it
is so unusual. It has style distine-
tion written all over it in that it is
knit in a different way, using two
patternings that contrast a vertical
and borizontal handling. A soft
wool yarn in a delectable deep rasp-
berry pink is used for the knitting
of this clever sweater.
If it's something a wee bit dress-
ier you are wanting, a touch of gay
hand-embroidery will do just that.
See what can be done in the way of
intriguing embroidery in the sweat-
er blouse below to the right. The
model pictured is knitted of rust red
wool and the embroidery is done
in riotous flower colors.
Coming to the dressier modes,
handsome laces of every type and
description make the news head.
lines for blouse and jacket and bo-
lero fantasies in a big way. It's
almost like magic the way a bit of
lace transforms into a jacket or
louse masterpiece and even if you
are not an expert in making things,
as pictured can be put together with
little effort. A collection of lace
tops will array you glamorously
wherever you go.
A lace bolero does wonders in
dressing you up, and does it click
charmingly with last year's frocks!
It is never so welcome and useful
as at the tailend of winter when
you are feeling a bit jaded with
dark dresses and feel the need of
something to perk them up. The
carickmacross lace bolero which
you see pictured above to the right
will sound a refreshing new note for
your wardrobe. Scalloped all around
the edges it silhouettes effectively
against the background of a black
dress in either street or evening
length.
A dress-up jacket-blouse to be
worn with skirt or suit lends allure
to your formal afternoon or eve-
ning costume. You can get the fine
leaf-patterned lace that fashions the
jacket-blouse pictured below to the
left in ravishing colors or in black.

The woman who has developed her
natural gifts by being beauty-loving
and beauty-seeking.
Gone are the days when one's ear-
nest devotion to good looks was
frowned upon, or when doctors
voiced their disapproval of cosmet-
ics. Today it is considered a wom-
an's duty to society to be as lovely
as possible and leading physicians
believe strongly that the healthy,
normal woman should keep astride
of her times and make herself most
attractive.
No matter what your age, your oc-
your circumstances, you
owe it to yourself as a woman, and
to those around you, to make the
most of your feminine heritage.
Husbands and children alike uncon-
sciously dote on wives and mothers

Keep Child's Mind
Active
If you are truly concerned about
her beauty you cannot fail to keep
her mind active and growing. What
nonsense to allow her to concen-
trate on make-up! Teach her simple
daily groomings. Fill her day with
small duties and childish pleas-
ures. Let her grow! Every child
loves to be read to. Every child
loves to paint and draw pictures.
Think up new activities that will
teach her to be self-reliant and pro-
gressive.
There is no beauty as appealing
in all the world as a child's beauty.
It must be held sacred. It must
not be scarred by stupid parents
who feel that artificial beauty aids
can possibly make their child more
attractive!
Body health, skin health, mental
health are the goals to be reached.
Help your child by concentrating
on those. She will grow to lovely
womanhood, happy in the knowl
edge that her parents were wise par-
ents who did not sacrifice her youth
