That Question Of Kissing

Dear Cynthia-I read Your column very
often. and am much interested In the
problems and your solution OF them. In
most cases. the advice is good but there Is
one thing with which l disagree. and that
Is OF boy and girl not kissing each other
before they are engaged.
Thousands and thousands of girls and
boys kiss each other without a thought OF
being engaged and they are OF good fam
iics. too I cannot see that II does one
anv harm.
Personally I go with a bunch Of boys
and girls who very well fixed So
cially and financially. and such a procedure
l. an understood fact. Most boys expect II,
and there are many who will not go with
girls who will not allow them to kiss them.
think such girls are prlgs and miss lots oi
fun.
Now. Cynthia. kindly give me your advice
on this subject. and I would also like tc
have some of the readers opinions.
Z. E. p.
Cynthia has already voiced her opin.
ion on this subject so am afraid
shall have to agree only to the last part
Of your request and submit the ques'
ton to readers.

Careful Washing Saves
CLOthinp

Shortage Of cotton for wearing ma
terial with its consequent high price
has made the housewife take an un-
usual interest in the conservation of gar
ments.
Conservation in cotton cloth means
saving war material as well as the
money and labor necessary to replace
the garment, The original appearance
OF an article made of colored material
may be kept If due precautions are
observed.
Buy cloth which has the color dyed
in the piece or dyed before weaving
rather than printed pattern.
Set the color by soaking for at least
an hour in salt water made in the pro-
portion OF two tablespoonfuls OF salt to a
quart of water
Avoid high temperatures, because
they make colored goods streaked
Boiling or ironing with too hot an iron
Is a cause of fading and streaking,
Do not use strong soaps. as they dull
the color and often the alkali in them
causes the color to run.
Wash each garment separately and
thus avoid any possibilities of duliing OF
changing shade by mixing colors

To the Editor~of Womdn'S Page
Dear Madam-Please help me. What col
ors are most becoming to brunette? II
one has stout face should she part her
hair in the middle or side. that II may
appear thinner? Is there anything you can
prepare at home to turn dark brown hair
black? Thank you very much for the advice
you may be able to give me.
x BRUNETTE.
Generally speaking, bright colors. red
yellow, bright green or purple. are most
becoming to a brunette. But a great
deal depends on the individual. Some
brunettes with pale compilations look
much better in lighter Co!ors; others,
with richer coloring. look better in
brown. bronze or dark crimson. The
color that sets off your eyes. makes your
coorng deeper. is the most becoming
one, no matter what your complexion Is.
Dark blue is good standard shade.
Parting the hair on the side with a soft
puff, not a large one that stands out on
ca ch side, makes the face look thinner
than parting 1t in the middle. Unless you
use a regular hair dye. there Is no way
to change dark brown hair to black. The
use OF vaseline on the scalp turns the
hair a shade darker
