MUCH FUN IN WELL
CHOSEN DINNER FAvORS

At small dinner or at a large one for
that matter. much fun can be derived
from the favors selected by the hostess,
and even now in midsummer the shops
are showing favors which may be new to
many women.
OF course, the funniest part of giving
favCrs lies in the fact that they must be
chosen with the idea of recalling some
pet trait or some familiar characteristic
of the guest in question.
For instance, to the man or woman who
is always running to the doctors and
whose medicine chest is in consequence
full of bottles of all kinds, should be
given one of the tiny little medicine
closets. which, on the door being opened,
reveals little medicine vial.
1t would make every one at the table
laugh If the very particular housekeeper
found miniature vacuum cleaner at her
place.
The girl who is forever at the phone
could not help but be amused II a tele-
phone with a little writing pad were
given to- her. A tiny little boat would
make every one laugh IL given to the
man who was known to spend all his
spare time on the water. often being late
for dinner because he must wait for lone
more bite"

TOPICS OF INTEREST TO EVERY WOMAN
JULIA CHANDLER MANI
ENGLISH SAY WE GIVE OUR
GIRLS TOO GREAT FREEDOM
in Directing Their Steps Along the
Paths of Good Taste.

girls are regulated by law. in the mat
ter of dress.
where We Fail.
An English woman once said to ms
that we allow our little maids toe
great freedom; that in our desire to de.
velop their individuality we fail in di.
| recting their steps along the paths OF
good taste and high ideals of beauty
and what constitutes charm.
In a measure the criticism is Just, and
in its truth lies the reason of the de-
plorable suggestion that the law OF
our land make up the deficiencies of our
motherhood.
Observation has taught me that toe
many mothers have the idea that allowing
their daughters to grow up with the
freedom Of weeds gives them the de-
sired chance for the development Of
individuality.
It hasn't been a week since a most
conscientious woman told me that she
disliked to correct her daughter in the
matter Of the hideous fashion in which
she is dressing her hair. because she
wanted her to be original. and not fol-
low like a sheep in the tastes Of other
people. She said she didn't want to make
the girl "a copy-cat." and so she goes
on letting her make herself unsightly
and ridiculous.
1 think this is the sort of thing the
English woman meant when she told
me that We allowed our girls too great
freedom.
How much better 1t would be IL this
mother, who really wants to do the
best thing for her daughter, were to
show the girl the vulgarity Of her mode
of dressing her hair, proving to her its
unbecomingness and pointing out to
her other girls of refinement who do
not employ such extreme styles!
Needs Mothers Help.
hood the little girl needs her mothers
directing judgment. She needs to be
shown by example as well as by word
of mouth, the sort of thing which leaves
the border-line of good taste and refine
ment and goes over to the side of vul-
garity.
The mother who teaches her little
maid to rely on her more mature judg
ment builds a safeguard for her daugh-
ter that she will never have occasion TO
regret
Developing individuality Is one thing.
Letting a girl grow up like weed
to be blown hither and yon by every
influence which enters her life is quite
another.
She is just like a piece of putty in her
mothers hands from her infancy until
her thirteenth birthday.
If her home is refined in her mothers
manner and dress that OF a lady, the
girl will have no desire to follow eX-
tremes of fashion by the time that other
influences begin to enter her life.
So, when we get right down to the
bottom of this matter of modesty or
immodesty in the dress of women. the
responsibility rests with those of us
who are mothers-those of US who have!
now in our keeping and under our in
fluence the mothers of the future.

then shake 1t out. The brush will be
