The Summer
Skirt
By Rita stuyvesant.

TOR warm weather wear de-
slgners are showing some
distinctive novelties in sep
arate skirts, that are really quite
different from anything shown be-
fore. Not only for sports wear but
for dress up occasions the separate
skirt IL much in eyidencs. All the
sheer materials are being used and
very often there are combinations
Of materials that are most effective.
Georgette crepe, crepe de chine, net
and hne oFgandy are all represented
in summer skirt fashions.
A skirt, exquisitely dainty, was
created from flesh eoloPed georgetto
crepe and baronet satin Of the same
shade. There were broad bands Of
the shimmering satin alternating
with ones OF crepe. The top band
was of georgette gathered into
draped one OF satin. Very lovely -
this skirt when worn with one OF
the new frilled blouses. 1t IL al0o
shown In a number Of other DELI
cate shades such as ivory, lettuce
green, pale blue, orchid, corn and
beige.
Dotted net has Joined hands with
crepe de chine for another skirt OF
snowy Ioveliness. The net Is closely
shirred and set on to straight bands
Of crepe de chine, giving q delight
full airiness that one seldom lndS
in a separate skirt. This model
measures about two yards around
the bottom and Is worn over a scant
petticoat to preserve the slim sill
houette.
sheer organdie fs used to inter
pref another meaning OF the sum
mer skirt and Is allied with llne hlet
lace. A plain gathered skirt OF
white organdie was made distinct
i've by q band Of filet insegted at the
hip line and another at the top Of
the knee-deep shAdoW-proof hem.
This lovely organdie skirt II also
developed In all the pale pastel
tints, and may be fashioned of soft
chiffon If one nHds the crisp organ
die a bit too severe.
Tucks and hemstitehing decorate
another organdie skirt for warm
days. The tucks are laid in about
five inches deep and hemstitched to
place extending from the belt to the
hem. Although this is a very sim
pie trimming, IL IL unusually effec-
tive.

Irritation of the scalp which might

How to Do ShampOOIhg.
The proper way to shampoo the
head Is to choose a good soap, such
as pure CASTLE or a good tar soap,
or il the hair is very oily, awhile
soap or tincture OF green soap is
good. You may also use a shampoo
liquid, which can be made by melt
ing a cake Of white CASTLE soap in
a quart Of boiling water and adding
one-fourth of a teaspoonful OF bi-
carbonate Of soda. This makes a
simple and mild shampoo liquid
which should be put into a wide
mouthed bottle or jar, as, If It is
not used when made IL will form a
jelly difficult to extract from an
ordinary bottle. r
First wet the hair thoroughly
with hot. water. then rub the soap
or jelly over the hair, being sure
to reach the scalp. Gather the long
hair up so it can be lathered also,
rub the scalp well, and wash the
long hair between the hands as
you would a handkerchief. Rinse
the soap of. Empty the bowl and
fill again with warm water.
Repeat the soaping, rubbing and
rinsing, and when the head has
been thoroughly shampooed, wash
out the lather with a copious sup
ply OF warm water.
1t will require several waters to
get the soap all out: the last water
should be cold, but not so cold as 20
cause a shock. Then dry both hair
and scalp with a good bath towel
Tin winter you should have she
towel warm), and when the hair is
partly dry, massage the scalp thor
oughly with the fingers OF both
hands. Continue this valuable ar

Who Killed These Boys?

crime which il seeks to correct by
legal executions. Its old, out-of-
date, inhuman method of capital
punishment will not atone for it's
share of this wrong There is alb
solutely no substantial evidence to
prove that this barbaric form of
getting rid of one criminal deters
the i'll conduct of the next wrong
doer.
The State is a party to killing
OF both these boys. 1t permitted
vice-breeding dens to run. 1t failed
to enforce the compulsory school
attendance laws in behalf of it's
youths. 1t even took various forms
of license and revenue from sew
eraI of the big business concerns
which corrupt the young through
the sale of coarse entertainment
and brutalizing social indulgences.
Now, let us confess the truth to
our younger boys by admitting to
them and by explaining that society
is a fifty-fifty criminal with the
victim here under discussion. 1t
openly permits the school of vice
to flourish alongside of the school
of moral guidance. Let us thus stir
our younger boys to a point OF
of their purpose to help at length
in the correction of the conditions
which produce the moral reprobate
and the criminal.
So I believe 1t will prove helpful
for the parent to outline before the
deluded and admiring young boy the
real biography of the criminal. to
explain how coarse fun leads TO
worse evils; to point out the hid
den sting in the base allurements;-
TO trace the gradual weakening of
the wrong doer. and finally to prove
that The wages of sin is death"
After that you may reasonably
expect your boy to see the ugliness
of evil, to be ashamed passively to
belong to the State or the munich
pality which is a silent partner in
Y,rong-doing, and to purpose in his
heart that he will help to put So
ciety right in regard TO the matter.

THIS article is not theoretical
treatise on the care OF the
hair, but helps and suggestions
based upon years of practical ex-
perience, together with a careful
study Of the subject and a deep in

phases are the hygiene of the hair
and the cultivation" of new hair.
This last is accomplished by manip-
ulating the scalp and drawing the
blood to the hair roots, keeping the
new hair short until it is strong,
and applying pomade or oil when
necessary
The hygiene of the hair consists
in knowing when and how to sham
poo, the combing and brushing Of
the hair, cutting the ends, exposing
the hair to sunlight and air when
ever possible, and when and how TO
use pomades and tonics.
Keep Hair in Good Condition.
1t is important, not only to those
who have poor hair, but to all who
wish TO preserve their hair in good
condition, to pay attention TO the
care of 1t, as by so doing you will

Lonesome at Fifteen.
EAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
am fifteen and have no
friends, as am not allowed
to go out in the evenings with any
one. seem to be thrown aside
by everyone who comes to my
house, and as they are grown up
young men and girls, they so out
leaving me behind. Will you
please tell me how to make friends
with the girls and boys at home?
LONESOME.
AS you are rather young to go
out with the others, why not
, spend your evenings in pre-
pairing yourself for the good times
in store for you in q year or two.
If you read bit and keep your
mind alert you will be twice as at
tractiVe as il you were stupid.
You could take up music and make
a good musician OF yourself. AS
you know, music Is always in great
demand among young people and
you would find in several years
that you were well repaid for the
time spent in practice and prepaHa-
tion. Another accomplishment which
most girls overlook is cooking.
Girls who can make really good
candy and delicious little cakes are
very much in demand, and 80 feu
girls take the time or trouble to
learn how. If you start in now to
learn something OF this kind, am
sure the time will fly by and be-
fore you know II you will be the
center of attraction. And for the
times when you are not busy with
things OF this kind you will find
that with a good book and a few
apples you will never get lonely.
