worked for him. 1t has been gradual
and subtle, for he went from the out
doors into caves and then hurriedly
built lean-tos, tents. cliffs. huts with
hole to vontilate, cabins and
houses.
And reaching a supposed civilized
state in houses. he stood for such
things IS tenements.
The result is all the train Of evils
that come from bad air and indoor
life.
About the only way We can in
any measure overcome the evil is to
sleep out OF doors. when possible,
and keep the houses we'll ventilated,
get more out of-doors outings and
practice deep breathing"

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRE-
COTT TO RUTH BURKE


Dear Ruth: l am inclosing Miss
Anderson's letter to me. You can
imagine my furious anger when 1
read it. What will that old woman
not think of next when she is aided
and abetted by Priscilla Bradford!

er-in-law, but I know you don't mind
that.
I am very much discouraged, Ruth,
dear. I seem to be confronted with
all sorts Of problems that as far as
I can see have no possible solution.
Is this because I am a women of less
decision of character and strength Of
mind than most. or are they the or
binary daily problems that every
one has to work out? I know you.
my dear, have had many in your
life. and you have surmounted them
splenddly. Indeed, you have proved
a bulwark upon which I have built
strength of character for myself

tell you that ! am much worried

Now He Likes It

Martha Lee: Have been reading about
different people condemning bobbed hair.
I am married and had an awful head of
hair. Last summer my husband and /
went to a lake. Every time I went in the
water 1 would have to spend an hour dry
ing my hair. Finally I told my husband I
was going TO bob 1t. He tried to dissuade
me- but nevertheless I had it cut He
liked it fine. The other day l said. Il
guess 1 will let my hair grow" He said,
please don't; l like it SO much better
bobbed."
As for expense get a shampoo and
marcel every week the same as I did be-
fore and my hair always looks well.

Tunic Blouse

One of the most fashionable modes
Of the moment is the straight tunic
blouse worn over a plain or pleated
skirt. This is one of the most con-
venient styles. since it offers a solu-
ton Of the between season dress.
Two or three blouses of different col
ors and materials may be worn with
the same skirt and each blouse gives
the effect of an entirely different

Not for Her

Dear Miss Lee: I am % years of ags
and have been married two years. I never
had my hair bobbed and never will. I like
something different. as one gets tired look
ing al the same thing wouldn't this be a
pretty world if everybody had their hair
bobbed, and had their dresses, shoes, hats
and coats made alike? In my estimation,
oet If nv f9i is bare bohbed !.
but a majority of them have told me corr
identialy that they wished they had their
hair back. They stated if they had long
hair they could comb it any fashion that
they would prefer. However. they won't
admit it TO the public.

wouldn't marry a bob-haired woman. This
reason Is that the majority of them
wouldn't want him.
A great part of the women that do not
like their bobbed hair probably did not
have it cut right. AS to the origin OF
bodied hair. l wouldn't advise him to
shave or have his hair cut short. for they
do that in Sing Sing. have heard:

thinks the bob greatly improved her
looks, and he mentions the money

If Miss Dyer was right in saying
many girls regret having their hair
bobbed, Indianapolis girls show no
evidence of it. Although a few have
written that they do prefer long hair,
they are greatly outnnmbered by
