Field Secretary IN MEMORIAM Mary Louise Dodge December Chird, Nineteen Hundred Chirty-right The sudden death on December 3, 1938, of Mary Louise Dodge brought the sense of a great loss to her many friends and deep sympathy for her bereaved family. Miss Dodge had rare qual- ities of mind and heart that bound people to her. She possessed the fine gift of friendship with quick understanding, generous sympathy, and unswerving loyalty. She gave to her family an unstinted devotion. Her literary interests matched her musical talent, and she lived in a choice world of beautiful appreciations. Her superior art as a teacher inspired her pupils with love for music and for their instructor We are thankful for her good life and for our privilege of sharing in it ELLEN C. SABIN Always with patience and generosity, Miss Dodge gave to her pupils from her talent and love for music. Unconsciously, to all students with whom she had contact, she gave of a lovable dis- position which quietly and happily radiated interest in each one. To all, she was an example of living—by her complete goodness of self and her fullness of life which she found beautiful through music and friendships. She is missed by those who knew and loved her and who benefitted by having been her students and friends. ELIZABETH RUEZ In the twenty-three years of her life in the college, Miss Dodge made for herself a place not to be filled and has left behind a quiet and lovely memory to be cherished; for the constant loyalty in the performance of her work; for the gracious gift of the beauty of her music; for the confidence and affection with which she inspired her students for whom she made life richer and more interesting; for the spirit of joy and comradeship which she shared with her colleagues; and for the deep, endur- ing loyalty and love which she gave her friends All these re- main to the custodians of her memory Frances W. HapbLey oo NUR 5 SENIoRS — calm — gentle souls—seldom seen—deep in study—or what? Flitting about in gowns—imortar boards slightly askew. Practice teaching—and_ lesson plans—and Education—and high heels —and stockings—and hair in place. Had a grand time for four years—expect to keep it up. Worried about jobs—all set for careers (or Russian Grand Dukes )— given to offering advice from their wealth of experience and listening to problems. Seldom in chapel—or any- where—except Senior Cabaret, and Sen- ior Prom and Swing-in—A little senti- mental—feeling somewhat choky when they think of Hat Hunt—and May Play —and saddle shoes—But looking for- ward to Commencement. Ready for ac- tion—and glamour—all-knowing — out to win — determination — Prepared For Life: Virginia Fietp Cor_pwarer, Micn.

Confused at times—and Problems!—“Who prop’st, thou ask, in these bad days my muind?”—Bridge is fun—and Dates!

Proof is our Science Club. Science Club is the organization in the college which devotes itself to the study of different scien- tific projects. This year the club studied photography starting from a discussion of the structure of a camera and the. physical principle involved and progressing through all the steps in the making of a picture to the development and enlarging of a snapshot. However, all work and no play is not a principle of the club. In the fall the first meeting of the year was a tea. In October, a field trip was taken by the members to Madison where the Forest Products’ Laboratory and the University buildings were visited. In the second semester various places of scientific interest in Milw aukee were visited. The last meeting of the year is a picnic usually held at a lake where the members indulge in the scientific pursuit of aquatic sports.

Tue OrrictaL Voice of the College Government Association is.a mighty one to our ears for it is this body which, under the authority of an Executive Council composed of the leaders of campus activities, wields executive and administrative powers in the college. The responsibility for the appointment of such important figures as the Library Chairman, Guardian of the Bulletin Board, Fire Captain, hostesses for C.G.A. and recreation rooms, Endow- ment Fund Chairman, and other officials lies with this body. To them come the cries and complaints of the student body—they lend an attentive ear and presently, with impressive dignity, the forces of C.G.A. begin to move. And while the results may be of great or small import, from the changing of a rule in the Blue Book to the donation of a bottle of ink to ink-needy students in the library, we know that the action has the sanction of the official voice of the students.

Henning A Community or THEIR Own, in the form of the C.S.O., binds the city students together in activities that are entirely independent of the house students. New students were introduced to their first bit of college life at the All-College Tea sponsored by the C.S.O. at the beginning of the school year. Under the guidance of a committee selected from the C.S. Council, a surprise awaited the old students in the C.S. Lounge. New maple furniture made the students feel more at home in the lower rooms of Merrill Hall. Study facilities were greatly improved by the addition of lamps and bulbs. Great enthusiasm was added to the caroling this Christmas Season by having the annual C.S. Supper meeting precede it. A Christmas spirit was aroused by the Santa Clauses, reindeer and sleds which decorated the tables. Soft candlelight offered a peaceful atmosphere in which to eat and sing carols. Other meetings this last year have been held at the lunch period. Each member brought a picnic lunch and dessert was furnished by the Organization. In April the City Students entertained their mothers at a Mother-Daughter Tea. This gave a grand opportunity for mothers, daughters and faculty to become acquainted with one another.

SUPREME Court oF Downer, the seven who regulate the privileges of us, the students—this is House Board, a truly fine manifestation of student government at its best. It is the duty of House Board, not only to administer the rules, but to maintain the high standard of conduct that has always been ours. As their standards are of the highest, so the membership of House Board is made up of those well qualified to exercise authority. The Heads-of-halls, secretary-treasurers of the halls, the President of C.G.A., and two members at large are those in whose hands rest the responsibility of making and enforcing the rules and impartially managing and controlling the affairs of the McLaren and Holton girls. Guiding and directing the house students is a necessary but difficult part of the running of the dormitories. How well we know this! HONOR SOCIETY Courtesy of the Milwaukee Sentine!. First Row: C. Hanson, P. Henning. Second Row: I. Milbauer, P. Rockstein. Grinps—Bur Nor Greasy. Three years ago the Milwaukee-Downer College Honor Society was founded for the purpose of formally recognizing outstanding scholarship. Membership was limited to as many as three juniors with a weighted average of ninety or more for five semesters, and to seniors with an average of ninety or more for the preceding six semesters. In an academic ceremony in the spring, new members are formally installed in the society, and take their place beside the girls who were admitted the preceding year. This spring Charlotte Studer and Jane Seaman, who became members in their junior year, were joined by Pattye Henning, Clarissa Hanson, and Phyllis Rockstein, juniors, and Inez Milbauer of the senior class. Pins were awarded in recognition of their scholastic achievements, congratulations were expressed, and a challenge was given to all underclassmen. Juniors of the Society, together with five faculty members, will serve as the committee to appoint the new members in the coming vear. wn io) | FIRE INCI (CignUls: MabEMOISELLE—if one were to hear the word alone, might suggest any number of things, from a magazine to a popular song. But to us it is irrevocably bound up with Le Cercle Frangais, which keeps French cus- toms, language, and traditions so alive in Milwaukee- Downer College that one has only to go to one of its meetings to fall completely under the spell of France. At Le Cercle Frangais we forget temporarily that we are Americans and, inspired by Miss Serafon (who represents Mademoiselle herself), are soon conversing madly in French and filling in the gaps in our vocabu- lary with eloquent gestures which seem quite in harmony with the general atmosphere. Throughout the year the meetings varied with teas, bridge and films which were shown by Miss Maxfield and which gave vivid descriptions of life in France and “French ala Champlain confounds French” Switzerland. In the French tradition was the Christmas meeting, small gifts inscribed with original French jingles were exchanged and French Christmas Carols were sung. Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme by Moliere (in which several of the faculty appeared), was presented to the entire student body on March 24th.

GeRMAN Hospriratiry might be the key to the growing popular- ity of the German Club for this year. It boasts the largest mem- bership in several years. The Marie Wollpert Verein offers to its members an excellent opportunity to put into actual use their classroom knowledge. German only is spoken at the meetings, and even the shyest student finds herself responding eagerly in the conversations and discussions. One of the most famed activities of the organization is the Advent Program, heralded by the practicing of German Advent and Christmas songs, and the preparing of real German Christmas cookies, stollen, and marzipan. Held in Greene Memorial Hall, decorated for the occasion with a Christmas tree and every- thing that goes with the season, the program ranks with Lantern Night and Christmas Play as one of Milwaukee-Downer’s best Christmas traditions. But the members do not spend all of their time in frolicking. A club project was an exhibition held in Chapman Memorial Library which included dolls in German costumes, models of peasant villages—and folk dances. A more scholarly activity was the annual Intercollegiate German Club banquet to which the German Club always sends representatives. This year Mt. Mary College was hostess.

Accordingly, club programs were chiefly in the form of work meetings. However, before Christmas, the traditional lanterns were made for Lantern Night, and a dinner meeting was held, after which the members attended current Mil- waukee exhibits. In March, accompanying a gallery tour of an exhibit of cartoons in the library, Ross Lewis, cartoonist of the staff of the Milwaukee Journal, spoke to the club. An interesting meeting also was held on the subject of etching. The climax of the year was, of course, the auction, an “event which was well worth the work that went into its preparation.

Nations SrirRep FRETFULLY, newspapers thundered, leaders maneouvered, and the Social Science Club watched and analysed. From their quiet, book-lined alcove on the second floor of Merrill Hall they kept their fingers on the pulse of the world—events in ‘Amer- ica—events in Germany—events in England—all were studied with an eye to present significance and future implications. Speakers of the year covered many aspects of modern social problems. An address on the duties of a voter and the activities of the League of Women Voters reminded club members that their organization was originated by a member of the League of Women V oters. Not least exciting of the year’s events was the Model World Conference, a continuation of the idea inaugu- rated at the Model Council of the League of Nations. The conference met in Chicago and found members of the Club in alert attendance. And then, of course, there was just a touch of glamour in the appearance of a genuine G-man from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The Club’s library, w hich continues to be enriched by the Carnegie Endow ment, exerts such a potent appeal that at almost any time some member of the Club may be seen in the alcove deeply engrossed in the problems of the world we live in.

SOMETHING OLD, SOMETHING New, Something borrowed, Something blue—IThe YWCA donned everything it needed for a happy career this year: Something old—the annual Lantern Night, flowers for Mother’s Weekend, publishing of address books, and the Orphans’ Party. Something new—little gum drop dolls for the Children’s Hospital at Christmas time, and visits to churches on Sundays. Something borrowed—information on the YWCA playhouse and camps, and a talk by Miss Sweat on labor. And something blue—the installation of officers on back campus to the strains of Triangle Blue in a natural setting. Also among the Club’s activities this year was its work at Missionary Fair. The knicknack booth, with its gourds, its hat-shaped coin purses, its lapel charms, was one of the indispensable parts of the Fair this year as every year.

Seen on the stage by the members of the student body every day in chapel, the Eolians have finally realized one of their cherished dreams—their wearing of lovely new vestments of college blue. Now they can look forward to even greater distinction than has been theirs in the past. Not only a familiar sight in chapel, the Glee Club is a necessary factor in the Christmas Play, lending the Christmas atmosphere and beauty with their carols. Christmas seems to be their favorite season, since in addition to this they blend their voices with those of the whole college in spreading cheer on Lantern Night; and on a special night of their own, carol (as only they can), at the trustees’ homes after singing the beautiful Christmas vesper service.

Dainty frosted cakes, steaming tea, and a fire crackling in the fireplace of the beautiful Home Economics rooms was the setting for the monthly meetings of the Home Ec’ers this year. Summer jobs, vocational guidance in nursery school and hospital dietetics work were only a few of the subjects discussed in this picturesque atmosphere. Although we, the student body, don’t know much about making candies and popovers and can’t for the life of us wield a needle to obtain the fine handiwork and those good looking frocks we see the members of this Club wearing, we are acquainted with their work at Mis- sionary Fair. We'll always remember their Tea Shop and their luscious sandwiches and hamburgers and tarts —and their delicious fruit cakes sold at Christmas time. Other outstanding events of the Club’s year were the exhibit in Sabin Hall of the handicraft work of the W.P.A. including toys, dolls, weaving, and block print- ing and the interesting but educational exhibit of the W.P.A. costume pageant.

Hol- Light Opera comes once more to Milwaukee-Downer College, for after the success of last year’s Oh Say Can You See the activities of Liebling Club were again centered around the writing of an original operetta to be given at the close of the college year. The composition and presentation of last year’s operetta was a new step in the club’s program, for formerly the purpose of the organization was merely to provide a common meeting ground for music lovers among the student Kate and Daisy smile for the camera. body. Gradually, because of the abundance of talent among the members, the idea was conceived of giving an original operetta, the entire production of which, including the musical score and libretto, would be orig- inal. The acclaim with which their first production was received inspired them to repeat the experiment. Typical of the romantic background of the light operetta is the scene of their new play, which is laid in the mythical kingdom of Sandor. The plot has developed in confer- ences behind closed doors, but the occasional tinkling of a piano has indicated the progress of their work. Tryouts for the cast were held after the libretto was completed. Arrangements were made for two perform- ances, because of an expected capacity audience.

We should term them players, but in a sense they do deceive—or rather represent characters of different ages and countries and times. gk Monthly meetings were devoted to discussions of the new play s which were coming to Milwaukee and plays which had already been here aad pantomumes and poetry by some of the new members. The highlights of the year were as usual the three big productions. In fall, under the leadership of the new speech department, three one-act plays, “Between the Soup and the Savory,” “Overtones,” and “The Princess Marries the Page,” were given. “Delightful,” “Enchant- ing” were echoed diva the halls Ais this perform- ance. But—after “Pride and Prejudice” in the spring the exclamations became “That’s one of the best plays ever given at M.-D.C.” We wonder what they will say after the Commencement Play in June? 0 ELOVOTANIRE ACU VV CIID CT I. ties nn: Secretary .Marguerite Gross, Ann Sullivan ER COSTE, Cm Waa 8 Center ate ee Dorothy Rehmer First Row: B.

Work Becomes PLay for members of the Occupational [herapy Club which is the medium by which all the future Occupational Therapists of Milwaukee-Downer College are brought together. At meetings they become better acquainted with the work that is being done in the Occupational Therapy field. At the first meeting, a supper party was given for the Freshmen by the old members, the one requirement for admittance being that all were to come as the title of some book. The party was followed by many work meetings, spent in prepara- tion for Missionary Fair, where the O. T.’s had their booth of hand-made, self-made articles. At other meet- ings, individuals interested in some phase of Occupa- tional Therapy spoke.

Did you know that the spiral was the curve of life? Have you seen the beautiful designs that can be made from parabolas? Are you aware that there is music in math- ematics, and that there is mathematics in music? Can you use a slide rule? Although to most of us such deep, dark, and awe-inspiring mysteries are beyond all human comprehension, the members of the Math Club hold the key to these secrets. Mathematics is their forte! One of the main events of the year oc- curred in early November when the MATE CLUB Rehmer and Little advise LaBudde about the numbers on the dial. Inter-Collegiate Mathematics Association held its meeting at Milwaukee-Downer College with guests from Mount Mary, Marquette, University of Wisconsin Extension Division, Milwaukee State Teachers’ College, Ripon, and Beloit. But most important in the eyes of the student body is the Mathematics Club’s activity in connec- tion with the sponsoring of the all-important Used-Book Exchange which does its most thriving business at the beginning of each new college semester.

Dances AND Dares, although they did play an important part in the activities of the Social Committee this year, were not the only outstanding words in their vocabulary. “Freshman” was a word which signified to the Committee their first event of the year, the party for those lonesome young underdogs that wandered around our campus the first. few days before registration in September. “Mixer” expressed to the Committee, as well as to all of us, that fateful night in October when we gaped with awe at the swarms of men that gathered in the Gym and in Holton Hall dining room (of course, all our stares did not stop us, nor them, from whirling around with some of those precious swarms ). “Short and Long,” which are synonymous of “informal and semi-formal,” are phrases which indicated gay times at the Milwaukee C ountry Club, the Milwaukee Athletic Club, and the North Hills Country Club.

RIDING elOlCi wel Yr “Oucn, My Sutin!” is a not uncommon cry where hockey sticks are involved—but somehow or other we always manage to bear up under our infirmities and stagger gallantly on until the end of the season. Sometimes (usually) we even come back for more and are to be found the next season executing the same gyrations, and uttering the same cries, and undergoing the same excruciating agony. So this vear hockey was again one of the most popular sports.

ARCHERY STRAIGHT AS AN ARROW isn’t just an expression with our archers, for the flight of their arrows is straight to the target—as its perforated face attests. Arch- ery, like riding, is a spring as well as a fall sport, and there are cold and wet days as well as sunny ones to contend with. But nothing daunts the in- trepid archer, who considers the satisfaction of shooting a bull’s eye sufficient recompence for any discomfort entailed. They say that archery is like golf—it gets you!

Almost every after- noon after four-ten this winter, a group of girls could be heard in the gym working enthusiastically at throw- ing baskets and passing to one another. Basketball was the athletic event of Father’s Day. The sophomores lost to the freshmen, who remained victorious through- out the season to win the cup. COLLEGE TEAM FRESHMEN V. Anderson M. Eaton B.

BOWLING “WHEN THE THUNDER STaRTs to [HUNDER—” we know it is nothing more fatal than the rumble from the nether regions of the school where the ambitious bowlers amuse themselves by flinging balls hither and yon with deadly accuracy. The bowling alleys, a popular place from one-ten to five-thirty and even after supper, were constantly used by enthusiastic bowlers. Balls bounced down the alleys and rolled so smoothly that they hardly made a sound. It was a jolly crowd who laughed and talked as they recorded strikes and spares and set up pins in the basement of Johnston Hall. SENIORS JUNIORS V. Anderson C. Holyoke J. Buening C. Thomas B.

The main part of the program—water games, history of swimming, and water formations,— was to show that swimming is fun as well as exercise. Comic diving by Flora Cart, in an old-fashioned bathing suit, amazed and amused the audience. Of course, there was competition for torm as well as racing and diving. Mar- jorie Bennetts won the cup, with Flora a ccs A a, + ¢ Cart second, Phyllis Trimberger third, and Elizabeth Larrabee fourth. Born thirty years too soon.

But everyone seems to be doing it (if only we could learn to hit the ball harder and straighter, we wouldn’t have to swing so often and the whole business would be less painful! ). And so—because of people like us—golf was a popu- lar sport as it went into its second year. At first there was practice on the hockey field, with those madden- ing cotton balls that just would not go very far, no matter how hard they were hit.

Excitement ran high as the juniors and freshmen raced towards the finish line. Shouts of encouragement rang out, for the juniors pulled harder and moved out to cross the finish line first and become the winners of the cup.

HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN SO SOON 102 THE HORSESHOE looked new and fresh, Lesser had unexploited charms, June and the crushing reality of exams seemed far away. We were back for another year, with new resolutions, and new sweaters and skirts, and a new outlook on the world. Our trunks and bags, finally wrested from the American Express Co. and Mr. Johnson, revealed new glories— clean bedspreads, unsullied saddle shoes, uncashed checks. But the Freshmen? Their intelli- gence and mental abilities had Been probed too exhaustively. The Junior Board had crashed through once too often with “Red Stands For Courage.” Limply, they were unquivering even in the presence of a returning Soph- omore. So from unorganization and squeals of recognition (“Mabel! how are you? Did you have a good summer?”), regimentation and registration took place. Big- Little Sister parties gave way to the first Geology trip, freshman indignities gave way to Y.W. orphan parties and sand-infested picnics on the beach. The seniors, radiating condescention and trail- ing yards of black gown slung carelessly over their left shoul- ders, swished smugly through Senior Swing-In. The year, so help us, had “begun! But what is the year without MEN? As-yet-undisillusioned Neophytes found Freshman Days ex- hausting thanks to the inexhaustible Junior Board piloted by Jan and Ann. Miss Greacen led her classes far afield in quest of geologic formations. . while the Y.W. gave a party for the orphans. . and carefree souls worked up ap- petites by romping on the beach. freshmen, confident sophomores, resigned juniors, and optimistic seniors flocked to the Mixer where harried males were hunted down, and the rules of love and war prevailed. Meanwhile, the descent on Becker’s and Hoffs almost annihilated Lesser and charge accounts mounted with in- credible rapidity. By this time, even the dullest freshman, having undergone the humiliation of Hat Banquet, knew the Hat Com- mittee from Flood to Daphne, and were no longer bafled by who in the world Mary Warner Sharpless McClelland was. We no longer had to hammer our way through milling crowds in front of the book store in order to buy Miss Brown’s two-cent mimeographed sheet on Richard Il, (Remember that frustrated feeling as we arrived at the win- dow mangled and mutilated, only to have it slam in our faces? ) College settled down to the varied routine of teas, teas, teas, teas, teas, teas, teas, teas. Over in the Zoo lab, cats made their debut. Zoo students began to eat their lunch two hours after breakfast, and staggered into chapel with the firm conviction that they should have been Eng- lish majors. The year, beyond a Not Holton Porch at the zero hour; merely the feminine stagline in action at the Mixer. (Note to Estabrook: what is it about your closet that develops pic- tures backwards?)

And then came Christmas vacation: but just as we were conquering that curly headed Adonis from Waykawaysee Teachers’ College, it was over. We were back, feeling frustrated. Back to term topics, and Emerson’s Essays and the Cat. Then came the horrible day when the exam schedule was posted, and the ugly discovery was made that all our exams came on the first three days. With the heartening philosophy, “We can’t win,” we retired behind a barrage of books. Life was very drab. The ‘nightmare days passed, and a shining new semester began. E ‘xhausted, we sought the tempo- rary refuge “of the infirmary. A slight temperature and a hacking cough gave us a week or two under the tender ministrations of Miss Johnson, as yet unhardened by Downer headaches. Others, less neurotic, tried snow sculpture on the Horseshoe. Snowmen rivaled each other in bulk if not in artistic quality. Somebody even constructed a Lincoln- Zephyr between Holton and McLaren. Trips to Lesser, after the annual mid-year slump, increased in volume. People went Saturday shopping with clear consciences. The year, to our vast relief, had passed its crisis. Mr. Robert Peter Tristram Coffin was a popular lecturer. Red jackets and a band were key notes for Rally. . while others ventured outside with- out stadium boots. . and Julie found Kimberly steps a good place to sun in mid-morning. In the spring, a young man’s fancy turns to old Ford cars. . and Kay and Liz kept on playing badminton. Mute testimony of exams. Marjorie—before or after? The faculty—glad it’s June. TNAVANNIEGS LEMOIRS Wille, IMEI VIOVR IE, Su Spring arrived just when we had given up all hope. Chapel talks increased in number. Optimustically, Miss Serafon conducted her third year French class out-of-doors, and the Downer stage was enlivened by the French Play, at which the Misses ‘Thyne, Maxfield and Philbrick ably assisted. Swimmers at last appeared beautifully coiffed, an indication that winter sports were a thing of the past. Chris, saving her pennies for a new pair of breeches, laid plans for the riding exhibition, while the rowers wondered if the ice would go out of the river in time for regatta. Miss Hadley’s English 4o1 decided that it was high time to finish their short stories, and her Versification class expressed wild joy at the news that Petah, her turtle, had turned philosopher. Juniors began to make bids for senior gowns (only $4.00 my dear, and a bargain at that. I put a zipper in it), and the Freshmen broke all traditions by stealing Sophomore pre-Rally plans. The year, by George, was limping to a close! Seniors investigated the opportunities offered by the W.P.A., and were vaguely resentful when a sophomore got a ring. Once more, Freshmen began to slink around back campus, sporting trowels and dodging Sophomores. But the Sophomores had their hands full with May Play and trying to learn the words of “Summer is A-Comin’ In.” Its a-com- all right. Mothers arrived in full forces for Mother’s Weekend, and spent their spare time straightening our rooms and wondering who did the dusting. Last year’s pastel sweaters, skirts and wash-dresses made. their apologetic appearance. We all traipsed to back campus armed with sun tan oil (oily and unnecessary), sun glasses, (spooky and unnecessary), and blan- kets (scratchy and unnecessary). The dark glasses made us look like baby Pandas in reverse. colors. Somebody started an Invite - Walter - Pidgeon - to - Senior - Prom - movement, but set- tled on Harry, who had a good heart anyway. Sis was elected Blue Blazer Girl. Once more we were engulfed in an orgy of exams, and came out wonder- ing how we’d spend the twenty-four hours between graduation and summer school. The year, and we were surpris- ingly regretful, was at an end. . while Miss Belcher supervised the filming of another Commencement. 107 Ouce Upon a Time... there was a girl—not little, alaa— who went to a college in Milwaukee. Her name was Maggie. It would be nice to say that she was the most popular girl on the campus. It would be even nicer to say that she had all Milwaukee by the ears. But she didn't. She was very dull, at least on the exterior. But underneath her drabness was a soul burning with the desire to Be Something —not a mouse-like creature that crept around Downer’s halls un-no- ticed, but a GLAMOUR GAL, a Thing-Not- To-Be-Taken-For-Granted. One day, she just happened to be sitting in Greene, or the Students’ Parlor, or the City Stu- dents’ room. And as she sat, she picked up a copy of that much-thumbed book, CUMTUX. She liked the feeling of the cool pages on her fevered hands. . . . And the worm turned. No longer is Maggie (now, Margot, if you please) a creature to be despised. She Learned Her Lesson. She bathes in a Kohler bathtub, she drinks the best milk, she knits with Susan Droper yarns, she dines at the Pfister, she has her hair done at the best beauty salons, her feet are neat- ly clad in the smartest saddle shoes. SHE HAS MADE THE MOST OF HERSELF. So you, too, may exude gobs of glamour! Take a hint from Margot, and read the Cumtuz Ad Section NEW KOHLER PLUMBING FIXTURES for HOMES with YOUNG, MODERN IDEAS New homes deserve new, fine plumbing; and that means Kohler fixtures and fittings. The bathroom illustrated has a modern Cosmopolitan bath with attractive design of vertical panels fading into the rim. Sides are lower for easier access (only 1514” from floor to rim) . . bottom is wider and flatter for safety . . . rim is broad and level to serve as a con- venient seat in foot bathing or dressing. The Cosmopolitan comes in both corner and re- cess design; three sizes; white, eight appealing pastels, and black. Teamed harmoniously with the Cosmopolitan is the vitreous china Jamestown lavatory with graceful chromium plated legs and wall-free towel bars to eliminate the necessity for drilling into the wall. Placid closet is one-piece, free-standing. See the new Kohler fixtures at our Milwaukee showroom, 751 N. Jefferson St. Kohler Co., Kohler, Wis.
