whether one use of the soap is
enough. I would massage the scalp
dry if I could give the time to it, but
as I cannot, use a towel to wiring
out the superfluous moisture from
the hair and then use the warm air
fan. But / always massage the scalp
after a shampoo and use the electric
vibrator. This brings the fresh oils
to the surface Of the scalp"
If you are still sixteen, and small,
I think it an excellent idea to wear
the hair down. There are so many
years when it must be worn up, and
hanging down is healthier for it.

HOW DO YOU SAY IT?
By c. N. Lurie
Common Errors in English and
How to Avoid Them
"oFF OF"

TINE use of the phrase which heads
l. this article leads often to errors
that are seen to be ludicrous, when
analyzed. For example, one will hear
the question: ''Where did you buy
that steak?" The answer comes: 81
got it off of the butcher around the
corner" To get a steak 'off Of the
butcher might suit a cannibal very we'll,
but the very idea would shock any
one else. In proper usage, omit the
off" say: 81 got it of (or from) the
butcher around the corner"
There are cases of the misuse OF
the phrase "off of" that are not lu'
dicrous, as in the instance already
cited. but in which the ''of'' is not
needed and instead of saying, "He
jumped off Of the car" say, "He
jumped off the car" A man who ex-
poets to open a store says: "Will you
buy something off Of me?' He should
say: "Wi!l you buy something from
me?"
