Dear Cynthia-I am girl of seven
teen years of age. ! am short and called

young fellow. lie made an engage
ment with me one Tuesday night, and
I saw him Monday as | was going
on an errand, and he said he could not
see me Tuesday, as he had another en-
gagement. lie did not make any en-
gagements after that. He does not pay
much attention to mo, and want him
to care for me. DO you think he is
waiting for me to invite him to the
house? I am not allowed to bring fcl-
lows to the house yet. Will YOU please
tell me what I should do to make him
care for me, as ! like him very much ?
LONESOME.
Can't you persuade your mother to
let You have the boys come to your
home? You needn't have n caller alone.
but ask another girl over, and then let
two boys come. Don't make engage
meuts with boys to meet on the corner,
etc. know n great many girls do
this, hut it only cheapens them.
would not waste my affection on n
hoy who did not seem to care for mo.
There are too many nice boys in the
world who will care for you. Just stop
thinking about him and pretty soon nm
other one will come along who will he
nicer to you. There is no way to make
an irresponsible sort of hoy. such ns you
describe, concentrate his affections.

What TO Do
By CYNTHIA
What CYNTHIA Ia Like

Dear Cynthia-Seeing the suggestion
that readers Of this column make q
guess as to what Cynthia Is like, 1
would like to put in my little say. You
are young, not too young, but young,
or you wouldn't be able to understand
as you do. don't know whether or
not you're married. / wouldn't be sur
prised If you were, and l wouldn't be
surprised II you weren't. l like TO
speculate about what you look like, and
sometimes--possibly just after have
read your column on the street car
1 take look around and wonder If you
might happen to be any of the women
on it. According to my speculation
you have light brown hair and eyes,
that sort which go with that color Of
hair; brown ones that aren't too dark.
You use little powder, because it
seems to me you'd be sensible about
that and you are quite healthy looking,
because you'd be sensible about that.
When I get this far, Cynthia, I
strike n haze. Maybe your hat is
blue and maybe it's pink, but anyhow
it's everything hat ought to be. I
may be fifty miles off in my guess,
but that's my story and I'll stick to it.

The Troubles Of Blue Ewes

Dear Cynthia-I am n girl, eighteen
years of age, considered good looking
by the opposite sex. l am going with
young man who cares for me very
much, but my parents object to my
having gentleman friend, but / think
l am cid enough to have one. I cannot
90 out much to see this Young man and
he knows l am not able to see him
sometimes, but he thinks / do not tell
him the truth and do not care for him.
And / care for him very much, as be
respects me hctter than any young NAH
l have been out before with. If any of
your readers can give me some advice
as to how l will be able to 60 out
oftener it will be appreciated by
LITTLE MISS BLUE EYES.
Can't you explain to your parents
that you are only just friends with this
young man and then try to prevail on
them to let him come to the house
once in n while to see you? Have an
other girl over and two boys-surely
mother will permit that at your age.
agree with her that you are too young
to center down to Just one boy at your
age. Has any girl whose mother re
fused at first to let her have boy callers
finally adjusted the matter satisfac
torily? Perhaps she can help you, Biuc
Eyes.

T JUST happeued. by the merest acci-
l. dent. to spy these rubher-work
aprons and for one consider them
an uncommonly good find. They fit
snugly. cover both skirt and waist
front and, as I already have said, are
made of rubber. OF black and white
check material, they resemble ging-
ham, hut they are very much more
useful. If you are like me and al
ways splash quantities of water down
you when you are anywhere near
water you will, know, want to pur-
chase one of these handy aprons.
Their price is 81.
As I've been known to observe be-
fore. summer is the time when there
is a great demand for fragrant cool =
ing powder. Why, bath wouldn't
be half a bath if a body couldn't
spriukle quantities of talcum over her
self afterward. One shop has tins
of sweet scented violet powder in
mound tins for thirty seven cents each.

turer's name and makes an excellent
talcum.
Glance at the ribbon you are wear
ing on your wrist watch. Is it pretty
well worn out? Well, did you know
that you can get ribbon bracelets

In cooking all jams, preserves or

If HOME LIFE CONTINUES
TO DISAPPEAR, WHAT THEM?
Here's Sample of the Future When Families Succumb the
Housing Situation and The Help Problem

,IT IS very easy to say things. But
what will happen to us and our sons
and daughters If homes really do con
tinue to disappear? Here we are with
two giant clubs driving "familyfuls' of
people into furnished rooms, boarding
houses, ETC., every day of the week; the
housing situation and the servant girl
problem.
Last week the Smiths lost their tenth
maid in five weeks and decided to 20
boarding. Two days ago the Joneses'
house was sold over their heads. And
now they're living in a hotel-not even
in nm apartment hotel, because Papa
and Mamma Jones and Jane and Julia
would have had to stand three weeks In
line to get into one.
IL it wasn't so serious it would be
terrifcally funny. The furniture had
to go in storage in such hurry no end
of II, -tant things nearly went in by
mistaL Mrs. Milligan rescued the Y
ray OF her tooth the dentist was due
to work on just as the moving men were
carrying out the bureau she had hidden
it in. But that wasn't the worst, ac-
cording to Jane. All the reports OF
how she as treasurer dispensed the
funds of the - club, all the receipts
and the checkbook were packed in the
bottom of her hope chest by her fond
mother, who benevolently mistook the
big manila envelope for safe harbor
for old letters. Jane had to 70 to the
storage after them, and the man was
no end mad at her.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1919-08-02

Nov they're living in two rooms, four
trunks. Janie's engaged, and although
she was tickled pink to move into
hotel on account Of having nothing to
do but ride up and down the elevator
and eat, the charm has already worn
off. Oh, for the den even il one did
have to wash the dishes first. The trag-
edy is briefly told, dear friends. Where
under the sun can she entertain Bill?
The other evening she was assured
she might have the sitting room (Julia's
and her sleeping quarters by its daytime
name) all evening. But as early as
1915 a mysterious summons issued
from the other room. Then rs plain
as day floated through the crack in the
door the gentle words ''IIow under
the sun can I 60 in there in my XII
monoT Then sustained whispers, and
again gentle words: "No, you couldn't
find it. You've got to tell him to go
out in the hall while come in and find
it myself" An armistice was tempo
rarily fixed up, but at II came another
unmistakable summons. The door was
cautiously opened, and clear and cold
came the message: 'Do you think I'm
going to stay up all night?" III,
AS l said, it would be Nery tragic IL
It weren't so terrifcally funny. 1t is no
small problem for a family that has
been living in twelve rooms to come
suddenly down to living in two. II
homes do disappear, there is one thing
certain-we will have to 60 in training

To Clean White Shoes

To the Editor Of tho Womun'S Page:
Dear Madam have pair of white
huckskin oxfords. and ] have cleaned
them with two kinds of cleaner. and
they turn yellow in big spots all over
the shoes. Should they be put in the
sun to dry? And can you tell me what
| can do to make them white?
A DAILY READER.
There must be something defective in
the material Of the shoes. for there is
nothing in either Of the cleaning prep
nrntions you mention that would make
them turn yellow. To restore them try
rubbing with a piece of fine sandpaper
and then go over them with one of the
dry white shoe cleaning powders sold
in any shoe department or store. Dry
the shoes in the sun.
