To Remove Ice Cream Stains

To the Editor Of Womdn's Page:
Dear Madam-Could you tell me
what will take the ice cream stain out
of satin dress Also what would take
pcrspiration stains out of a gcorgette
waist and a crepe de chine one? |
also have a friend who has a tangled
mass of hair so that she cannot comb
it.. AS she does not want to cut it off !,
what would make it smooth. easily and
quickly? VIII you suggest way to
arrange the hair that will look girlish
and pretty? My hair is about five
inches from my MILDLY collar. but is
thick. | have been wearing it up in
II way that I think looks too old | am
only fifteen. Also please tell me how
to have good memory. am very
forgetful. Please tell me how to bleach
mytAeck and arms, also how to whiten
my teeth
: A WEEL WlSHER.
You can remove the ice-cream stain
with carbon tetrs chloride. This can be
bought Mt the drug store. 1t is a liquid
and does not need diluting. Sponge
the stain with it., working from the
UulNluP VI Tue Slulu lDWdTu tue Hlluult.
1t is very difficult to remove per
spiration strains, but in many cases
n little lemon juice is successful. When
it is applied the stain becomes yellow
and stays so until it is neutralizcd.
Your friend will have to part her
hair as far as possible and comb each
part separately. slowly and carefully.
until she gets as muCn as possible of
the tangle out. There is no easy and
quick way to untangle mass of hair,
and it may be necessary to cut away a
little of it if it is so matted that she
cannot comb it out. 1t may hurt and
pull. but that is the only way to un-
tangle it.
Comb your hair back in soft puffs
over your ears. holding it with n comb
on each side. if it is not long enough
to reach to the back of your head and
then hold the back of it together with
barette. or else tie it with ribbon
if it is long enough. If YOU prefer, YOU
| could pait it and turn it up once under
the bow. Part it or else draw it back
loosely in front. according to what is
most becoming to you. The only way
to have good memory is to learn tC
concentrate. If you think hard enough
about n thing you Will not forget it.

a Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose

| LNROM Paris comes the news that the
! l. latest of the designs have a tendency
to acccntuate the hip line. As is always
the case when new style is inaugu
rated the first of the models are shown
in their most exaggerated forms. If
the fashion lives, the women usually
take it up in modified form and little
by little adopt the style until at last
| their ideas are educated to the fashion
as originally shown by the Paris ere
ator.
There is. therefore, not much use Of
our groaning over the idea of ono hav-
ing hips" for it will bc many n day
before that can happen, if it ever does.
My personal opinion is that hips will
be an effect only. that the slender fig =
ure will remain as we now have it. or
nearly so. the effect of hips being given
by fullncss, bouffant drapcrics and de
| signing.
Already, the designing to bring out
the hips is noticeable in many of the
spring garments. Take the model il
lustratcd today. for instance, where the
pieces of the material which form the
pockets arc set on at the hip line. We're
it not for this, the frork would be Il
straight line affair. This dress is made
of light weight jersey in walnut. navy.
gray and brown. The narrow collar
and cuffs are of contrasting color of
jersey. It's plain, scrviceable frock
for the younger women.
The hat is of lace straw. small in
size and trimmed at the right side with
a bunch of green grapes.

The Point Isabel harbor fight has
been won. The S125, 900 fund guar
anteed by Brownsville and the Valley
is now in bank subject to the call of
the government, and next Tuesday
government engineers will be at Point
Isabel to take depth measurments at
the bar, the result of which will de-
termine if massive dredge, which
will be available at Galveston in two
weeks, can be brought TO Point Isa-
bel to do the work.
There was publication at the
Brownsville Board of City Develop
ment last night when the news was
announced that the channel fund was
in bank At no time has there been
shadow of doubt that the fund would
be raised, but it came at the end of
week of strenuous endeavor on the
part of the harbor boosters, and when
gram prepared by the Board of City
Development to send to the govern
ment engineers at Galveston, the
room rang with their cheers
On August first the Brownsville
Board of City Development sent to
Colonel Spencer Cosby telegram
stating the money would be available
by last night. Wednesday night Mr.
Jessup went to Galveston for a con-
ference with Colonel Cosby and to
explain TO him the situation, and re-
ceived the information that the gov
ernment engineers had acted imme-
diately upon receipt of the wire sent
August l, and d detail of engineers
had been ordered to 20 to Point Isa-
bel and would arrive there Tuesday
for the purpose Of making soundings
on the bar. A large dredge will be
available AT Galveston in about two
weeks, and if the soundings taken by
the. engineers show a sufficient depth
of water the dredge will then be
brought to the Point and commence
work on the channel. Colonel Cos
by and the engineers Of his depart
ment have evinced much interest in
the Point Isabel harbor project. and
they are apparently as anxious to
start the work as the people of the
Valley are to have il started.
The point has been raised at sever
al Of the meetings at various places
