New Crownless Hats
and Toeless Shoes
Stress Grooming.
BY ELSIE FIERCE.
^LL Dame Fashion has to do is com
mand "show off" and Beauty is
as ready as a 2-year-old who has
mastered a nursery rhyme to say her
piece or "do her stuff" (if you’ll for
give me for using a slang phrase that,
to me, is full of meaning).
I like to point to the shorter skirt
and its beautifying effect on legs and
ankles. Actually the short skirt didn't
do any magic tricks. Women realized
that the legs and ankles would be very
much in evidence, so they got busy—
exercising, walking, bicycling, skating,
massaging, slapping. It didn't take
very long for legs to look more shapely.
Similarly. Summer suits—swimming :
suits, I mean—have had a decidedly i
glorifying effect on the figure. Put to j
a ''you're on view” test, woman always !
walk off with beauty honors. Of
course, we've seen many a figure in a
bathing suit that should have been
draped in a full-length toga, and even
then would be nothing “to write home
about.” But women who have so little
pride in their beauty usually have
just-so-little beauty. Fashion's edicts
don't matter to them. Pictorially
speaking, nothing matters to them,
but. fortunately, they are in the mi
nority. The majority of women I
have found like a challenge and usu
ally live up to it.
The latest conceit of Fashion is the
crownless hat. Mark my words, it will
mean more good-looking heads—more
beautifully groomed, more stylishly
eoiffed, more . scrupulously cleansed,
agleam with life and high lights and
color. If it weren't for this challenge
I don't think I could find much justi
fication for this vogue. But more
about that tomorrow.
Our purpose today is to prove the
relationship between Fashion and
Beauty. Another vogue—the toeless
shoe—should mean healthier and more
attractive feet. This vogue is going to
have its effect on faces, too. Because
If we admit that cramped, crowded,
tired, aching feet trace tired lines and
wrinkles on the face, then the converse
must be true, too—namely, that com
fortable feet make for happy faces.
Everything else beging equal, of course.
We could go on and on. pointing to
the sleeveless, backless vogue of Sum
mer dresses. But we had better stop
before we’re accused of sponsoring a
nudist vogue. The fact is Fashion is
clever enough to know her beauty
bounds.

Manners
of the
Moment
COME one wrote to us the other day
^ to say that he had always thought
that nothing should be passed at the
table except the plates. But ap
parently he can't convince his wife,
and he wants us to back him up. We
hate to get into a family row, but
he's partly right and she's partly
right. (How do you like that for
•kirting an issue?)
We consider all rules about table
etiquette rules of convenience, and if
they aren’t convenient we throw them
out of the window. That’s our plat
w form.
Now, not passing anything at the
table is fine, because it's much easier
if you don’t have to pass things.
Where there's a maid or a butier,
Who can do all the passing, it's perfect.
But some people don’t have maids
and some have maids who pass so
•lowly that the lamb gets cold before
the mint sauce comes around. In
those cases we consider a certain
Amount of passing around the table
all to the good.
We'd make the rule sound this way:
When things are being served at the
table, pass the lightest or smallest
things to the heaviest or biggest thing.
That is, have one or two people serve
the meat and vegetables and pass the
plates to them. (The plates are
lighter than the vegetable dishes.)
But let the bread and the relishes, and
maybe even sauces, go around from
hand to hand. (They're smaller than
the plates.) But don’t, for heaven's
•ake, have everything going round and
round all at once. No one can receive
•nd serve in such rapid succession un
less he's both Perry and Vines.

BY MARGARET WARNER.
EWEST arrivals in the lipstick
family are two colors for Sum
mer, called "Fiesta" and "Red
wing,’ They arc both true
reds. Fiesta being a bright, flamboyant
scarlet for the Irish type or “in-be
tweens” with dark hair and fair skin,
while Redwing is a royal crimson in
rich dark red, very much liked by the
blond as well as the brunette. You
will want to take a look at these
when you are shopping around, and
see if either one fits into your color
scheme. The old rose and silver con
tainers have a smart, new look, and
the price is $1.
The same firm is putting out a
cleansing cream that is so light and
fluffy that it is a joy to use. It is
called a velvet cleanser because it
leaves the skin so smooth, and is said
to be equally good for all types of skin.
This is also $1.
The third lipstick has been created
to complete a lovely royal make-up
and this vivid, warm color is itself
called "Royal.” It contains no yellow
or blue undertones. Concealed inside
the lid of the neat swivel-type case is
a tiny compartment containing a wisp
of cotton scented with a well known
perfume, which scents both the lip
stick case and the bag in which it
Is carried. The lipstick itself also is
perfumed, making a very delightful
little stick in a choice of colors, at
$1.50.

Do you find that your present supply of hot plate mats is inadequate?
Or are they becoming old and worn out? The best way to obtain a new set is
to make them yourself, following a pattern like this. There are directions for
two sizes for platters, and a smaller hexagon that's right for a bowl or round

The pattern envelope contains complete, easy-to-understand illustrated
directions, with diagrams to aid you; also what crochet hook and what

chased from $1 up. Keep them in
mind for graduation gifts.
Recently some one was inquiring
about a verbena perfume, and at
the time we could only think of
lemon verbena sachet. But since then
we have learned about a concentrated
toilet water that comes in several
odeurs, including verbena, and is
one of the new products of a dis
tinguished perfumer. These toilet wa
ters have been prepared with a
greater percentage of perfume oils to
give them body and an unusual
lasting quality. You may test this
yourself by applying one of the
odeurs to your hands, then wash them
two or three times; you will find
that the delightful warm fragrance
will still remain.
On the subject of shades of powder
and rouge for make-up we would
like to quote from one of the noted
authorities on the subject. She says:
“Gone are the old simple days when
an arbitrary arbiter of style could say
'Be fair, sweet maid, and you'll be
fashionable this Summer.’ Departed
is the era when all women were so uni
formly nut-brown as to suggest the
vanishing white woman. The smart
woman of this more sophisticated
year has already made up her mind
whether she looks better in bronze or
as a lily fair. Her only problem is to
find the wherewithal for achieving—
or retaining—the correct shade.” And
even this is no problem. You make up
your mind as to the effect you wish to
create, and you find it all ready for
you at the cosmetic counter, even if it
is a lovely tan and you haven't time
or the opportunity to acquire one
naturally.

jpOR the town and country woman
who wishes to mix a little golf and
tennis after business, and on week
ends, yet wear fluttering chiffons in
midweek in town, what could be bet
ter than being able to put on her tan
and remove it at will. This she can
achieve with a new tan make-up, first
introduced in France where it imme
diately made a great hit. This irre
sistible film spreads easily and evenly.
Its vibrant, red-gold coloring seems
to merge with the skin while only the
faintest suggestion of the film remains
to hold powder and rouge indefinitely.
It comes in a tube and at first sight
is a startling color to be applying to
one's skin, but once you get the knack
of putting it on just right, with a
matching dark powrder over it and a
touch of bright cheek and lip color,
you will be delighted with your grand
outdoorsy look of "vim, vigor and
vitality" so easily attained. It is good
for camouflaging bare legs that are
too white in early Summer and have
that naked look that tanned legs
never have.
And now a word about a few little
aids to body freshness at all times
during the hot weather ahead, w'hen
it is so imperative to guard against
the slightest suggestion of oflense.
We have discovered a whole family
of deodorants, offering a form for
every Individual preference and each
of them only 10 cents.
For underarm relief from excessive
perspiration there is a colorless liquid
with applicator and enough to last
you several weeks. Then there is a
cream deodorant that is easy to ap
ply wherever needed, and is also said
to banish household odors like onions
and fish and even benzine from the
hands. A small can of deodorant
powder is just about the handiest
thing to have for a lot of purposes,
and the best trick of all is the small
deodorant stick that fits into your
purse for emergency use. This, too,
is only 10 oente.
Each of these has its appeal and
recommends itself for special uses.
You will like the whole midget family,
and in fact find them quite indis

Dorothy Dix Says
Being a Good Listener Is a Great Pop
ularity Booster.
THE millions of us who have
followed through the public
prints the story of the romance
of the Duke of Windsor and
Mrs. Warfield have wondered by what
arts and wiles a middle-aged woman,
whose looks are nothing to write a
song about, captured the most eligible
man In the world. The explanation
that the chroniclers of this strange
love idyl have universally given has
been that, like Scheherezade of old.
the lady wove her spells with her
tongue, and that she kept the former
King so amused and entertained by
her w-itty conversation and her humor
ous stories that he desired her for a
life companion.
Instead of abating our curiosity,
however, this explanation of Mrs. War
field’s charm has only roused it to
fever heat, and made us more anxious
than ever to know how she turned the
trick. For talkative women are not
popular with men and none of their
sex are more anathema than those
w’ho tell good stories.
Furthermore, although we have read
volumes of laudations of Mrs. War
field’s brilliant conversation and scin
tillating wit, and been told over and
over again about how devastating her
sarcasm was and how side-splitting
her comments on men and events were,
not one single time have we been per
mitted to appraise the worth of these
lingual jewels.
Not one of the wisecracks that are
alleged to have downed Edward has
ever reached the public ear. Not even
one of Wally's smallest jokes has ever
been printed. Not one of us can
liven up a dinner table by repeating
the last smart thing that Wally said,
or by telling of some crack she has
made that has sef the country in a
roar, as we do about Dorothy Parker,
and Alice Longworth. And so. as wit
will out, it has been a mystery how she
kept so many good things under her
hat, so to speak.
Now at long last our curiosity has
The Old Gardener Says:
The pruning of early flowering
shrubs is to be done as soon as
possible after the blooming season
is over, for they will begin to
prepare for next Spring’s display
before this season is over. For
sythias in particular need to be
pruned hard, but not by cutting
off the ends of the branches. A
forsythia bush cut square across
the top ceases to be a thing of
beauty. The proper plan is to cut
out the older canes close to the
ground and to leave the younger
canes in the form in which they
naturally grow—arching and
graceful. It is the new wood
that produces the best flowers,
and much is gained by a constant
renewal of blooming canes in the
manner described.
(Copyright. 1937.)
been appeased and we need wonder no
longer at Mrs. Warfield’s ability to '
always get her man. The secret of
her conjure has been revealed. The
explanation is furnished of why none
of her bonmots have ever been pub
licized by a man who knows her well
and who is a member of the social set
in which she moved in London. He
says that Mrs. Warfield's power lies
not in her tongue but in her ears, that
she is just a so-so run-of-the-mill
talker, but that she is a gifted listener
who makes every man with whom she
comes in contact feel she is just hang
ing on his words and that she could
never tire of gathering up the pearls
that fall from his lips.
I trust that every woman who
reads these lines will ponder long
and prayerfully over the case of Mrs.
Warfield, who, by her simple act of
keeping silent and letting the party
of the other part do the talking, has
demonstrated all the law and the
prophets, not only about the art of
achieving popularity, but also of ac
quiring a reputation for wit and
wisdom.
No doubt this requires courage and
self-sacrifice that amounts to hero
ism, since we all prefer the sound of
our own voices to any other music.
Also it calls for a phenomenal ability
to take punishment and come up
smiling when one has to listen to
bores But in the end it pays for
whatever sufferings one has endured.
For who are the people we like and
whose society we seek? Are not they
invariably those who lend us their
ears? Who are the men and women
whom we regard as exceptionally in
telligent? Are they not those who
listen as if to an oracle while wc pro
mulgate our views on every subject
under the sun? Who are those whose
sense of humor we always praise?
Are they not those who laugh at our
jokes and beg us to repeat a good
I story we told at the club?
And when we speak of having spent
a pleasant evening with a group of
extremely interesting people, isn't it
always an occasion on which we have
been permitted to monopolize the
conversation and monologue about
ourselves? Yes, verily. The one re
liable recipe for making a surefire hit
is to let other people tell you.
Of course, there is an art in listen
ing. The squirmer who writhes as
if in torment while you tell him the
story of your life or describe your
new Automobile gets nowhere. He
might as well talk himself. So had
the whistler or the hummer. So had
the one with a roving eye. So had
the interrupter. To be a good listener
one must wear an expression of rapt
attention and keep one’s eyes glued on
the speaker’s face and be able to
breathe in an expectant voice: “What
then?’’ when the monologist pauses
for breath.
And to such as can do this, great is
their reward. DOROTHY DDE.

‘The Gang’
Inevitable
I Problem ■
Part of Life of Every
Adolescent Boy
and Girl.
BY ANGELO PATRI.
JN SPITE of the Declaration of
Independence no two children are
born equal. In any two. one will
lead and the other will follow. One
will say how and when and the other
will set about the doing of it. The
gang and its leader is the logical out/
growth of human need.
The follower looks up to his leader
and copies him as closely as he can.
When, one afternoon, your child comes
home from school as unlike the child
who left home that morning as any
changeling might be. you can know he
has met and accepted a leader. If he
is half-way acceptable let it go at that.
These attachments are formed to be
broken, and one of the best ways to
use them for the good of all concerned
is to allow them to run their full day.
Try to go along with the gang. Only
when you discover that the working
motive is bad should you interfere.
The gang is likely to be at about the
same level of growth, achievement,
mental and moral development as the
child in your house. It is difficult for
a family to accept the notion that
their boy is just like the boy next door
and the one down the street; that he
has dirty hands and face at times,
that he has no manners to meet a
situation on occasions, that he might
break a window and otherwise bring
down the wTath of the corner grocer.
But it is true. All little boys and
I most little girls go through a grubby
; stage, even the nice little boy in your
house. It is nothing to worry about.
| Just something to accept like chicken
j pox and mumps.
Once a boy has joined up with his
j gang he yields to the gang spirit com
i pletely. He makes their manners his—
their speech, their ways of dress, their
standards, all are his. Anything that
might cast reflection upon the gang's
standards is a call to arms. Whatever
the gang does is right and it takes a
lot of doing to make him see anything
else. Unless there is something dan
gerous in what the gang stands for and
what it does, leave it alone to work out
its term

Washing Dishes.
Dishwashing hints for newly-weds:
(1) carefully stack dishes in piles. (2)
soak egg and milk dishes and silver
ware in cold water, (3) rinse sticky
and greasy articles with warm water,
(4) use plenty of hot water and soap
suds, (5) wash glassware first, (6)
silverware next, <7> then china and
(8) finally, the pans.
To Build Health.
The between-meal lunch is advisable
for underweight or fast-growing chil
dren. It may include graham crackers
and milk, fruit, simple cookies and
fruit juices. In Summer, fresh fruits
or egg and milk drinks are suitable.
i ne Dost way in any case is to keep
ahead of the boy's growth and its needs
by heading him toward the right sort
of gang in the beginning. For that
you can't beat the Boy Scout organ
ization. It offers all a boy needs, and
one ran feel safe in feeling he belongs.
What is true of the boys is true of
the girls as well. Their gangs are more
conservative and stay closer to home
and in well-traveled paths of experi
ence. The girls need out-of-home
experiences. They need to get out
Into the air. to learn camp ways, and
the co-operation and spirit of com
mon service that the Campfire Girl*
offer. A girl can have no finer ex
periences in these early year* than
those she gets in her Campfire years.
It is here that she learns to accept
other girls as friends without the
usual too personal picking that girls
practice. A girl is a sister if she be
longs no matter what sort of house
she lives in or the make of her
family's car. She belongs because of
her membership in this group, and
that belonging wipes out all other
lines. This is something that girls
need more than their democratic,
friendly brothers. Girls are likely to
be too close a corporation in their
acquaintances and friendships. Camp
fire groups spread friendliness and
understanding farther titan any social
organization seems to do. Introduce
the girl to the Campfire group and
the boy to the Scouts and you take
out insurance against the dangers of
a peculiarly dangerous stage of growth.
Mr. Patri will give personal attention
to inquiries from parents and school
teachers on the care and development
of children. Write him in care of this

addressed envelope for reply.
