There's Rose in Old Erin.
Dear Miss Brooks:
IT does seem as II 1 have a lot OF
perplexing problems for a girl of my
age. and I thought you might hell
me solve some of them. am Is years
of age. % My hair Is my biggest
problem. 1t is extremely fine and as
have snarled and curled 1t a great deal
during the last few years on the sides
1t Is now so short I cannot comb 1t
good any more. In fact it is really too
short to wear Dutch or bobbed when
curled. In addition to this 1t IS quite
thin. which isn't helped any by its
being so fine as it would appear more
II II were coarse. Now what I would
like to know is how in the world am
I going to comb it without snarling or
curling II. so that 1t can have a chance
to grow again. (2) Ny hip measure
ment is little larger than 1t should
be in proportion to the rest Of my body.
What style dresses should I wear?
Full skirts clinging materials. or
straight ne-piece dresses? thank
you.
AN ANXIOUS INQUIRER, Utah.
No, Anxious. most Of the girls ind
It very perplexing problem what to
40 with their hair, especially those who
are letting 1t grow (if It WILD. ~
No. Anxious. not any more than most
girls from 10 to IS do have very SER
ious and perplexing problems-to them.
Now 1t seems imperative that your hair
get the attention and rest It has so
long needed, doesn't It? Why not have
coronet braid made and wear this
over your irregular and scanty tresses
until you have eoaxed them to grow
long and luxuriant again. The newer
style of plain and severe hair Dress
ing would suit your need at least. even
II 1t were not the most becoming. And
then brush your hair diligently daily
and massage the scalp daily also. You
have mistreated 1t so long that you
must be patient and coax 1t back to
life. (2) I am inclined to think the
straight line one-ptece model in dress
would be most becoming, and all the |
crepes which are very popular and |
which come in so many weaves and |
weights are splendid.
Dear Miss Brooks
/ have been an interested reader of
your corner for several months. II
have never written to you before, but |
hope L am welcome. I also have two
questions 1 would like you to answer
II you have time. % How tall should
q girl of sixteen be? (2) Is a girl of
sixteen too young to go with her boy
friends? Yours truly,
ISABELLE, Idaho.
Better late than never, you know,
Isabelle. (D The average height of
girls of sixteen is about 90 inches (2)
1t Is quite proper for girls sixteen yrs.
old to begin to go out with boys, dear,
and now II you are only beginning to
cultivate boy friends let me advise that
you choose them very carefully, for.
you know, you are judged a great deal
by tho sort of friends you have, and
the company you keep. Thanks so very
much for the song.
Dear Miss Brooks:
I have never attempted to enter your
corner. but I find it very interesting
hair thicker to cut It? (2) Will you
please tell me the meaning of Carl and
Norma? Thanking you in advance,
remain,
CURLY LOCKS of Utah. I.
Welcome. Curly Locks. % It is said ,
that cutting the hair will cause 1t to
come In thicker and make more even
growth, but 1t does not do so in all
eases. (2) Carl or Karl is the German,
form for Charles. meaning strong
manly" Norma Is not listed as having
my special meaning. Thar ks for the
long, dear.
Dear Miss Brooks:
l wonder IL you or any of your read
rs can help me to find a song about q
nan who Is out walking and hears a
quarrel between father and son. and
he burden of the refrain Is:
You'll be sorry that you've served
so.
When we're both dead my lad"
