HOW 1T STARTED
"Starboard" and Port. y
ny JEAN NEWTON,

Even the uninitiated sailor, the
tyro on his first trip on the ocean,
learns soon enough to refer to the
sides of the ship as the 'starboard"
or the port" side, the "Starboard'
being the left side his right as he faces
the bow or front of the ship, the
port" TO his left.
10. the port" side is not neces-
sarily that which faces the shore or
port, for while port side will face
the shore when the ship is going
In one direction. say north, it will be
on the ocean side, the "starboard"
facing the shore, when the vessel is
making her return trip. south.
"Starboard" is derived from the
Anglo Saxon "steobord" meaning
steering board. The right was the
side on which the stcersman stood in
the old days. hence "steerboard' or
our modern "starboard' for the right
side of the boat, facing forward
The left side or that empty of tho
sherman" was called, in the days
when our language was still in the
making, "larboard," but this word
subsequently caused so much contu-
sion that 1t was officially eliminated in
navy parlance and the word 'port"
substituted. This took place in the
British navy in 1914 and in our own
Navy in 1896.
Port" is the older word, coming
from the Latin ''portus" meaning
"harbor'' The left side OF the boat
was so characterized because in olden
times it was always the left side of a
dockcd vessel which was laid to tho
quay or port"

: mirror without assuring themselves
| that they're wearing a coat as 1t
should be worn. or as they will wear
| it. Make allowances if the coat is
ordinarily to be worn over a heavy
dress or suit.
Your Spring coat is to be loose
fitting. The hip size won't matter
much. This is a real problem,
! though. with q fitted model. In some
coats, extra fuliness through the hips
is gained by inserting an inverted
pleat in the back. This gives the
| wearer plently of room without
making the coat bulky. Be careful
that there's no tightness, no strain on
seams and set-in pockets. no pulling
apart of pleats. and SO forth. If the
hip size is right. the whole skirt of
the coat will usually fit.
If sleeves bind across the upper
arm or in the arnhole, they are not
large enough. They should cover
the wrists well. but not be too long:
otherwise your hands can't move
freely The width OF the sleeve is
determined by fashion. The collar
should fit snuglv. not tightly. Unless
the coat is pulled up well the collar
will not fit as it should.
Two authorities must have a say"
regarding the length of the coat YOUR
self and fashion. u the coat is being
bought for a growing daughter. think
of next year. The length OF the coat
is vital to it's appearance. If it's not
long enough it may look skinny, and
il it's not short enough it may look
doWdy.
When a coat is bought for daughter
with next year in mind there are a
few other details to remember. If 1t
has n belt, be certain it can be raised
or lowered if that seems desirable.
An inverted pleat should fit well down
at the waist, so that a years growth
will not raise il too high. Generous
material in the sleeves and hem
should also influence you.
The most beautiful coat in fashion
dom will not become you unless 1t fits
properly. The difference between n
good looking coat and an unbeconling
one lies more often in judgment than
| price.

An anxious mother writes:
Valerie, my daughter. is just %,
and I'm worried about her. She has
had the best of everything all her life
the finest education and the greatest
care.
LAS a result, today she is cultured,
charming and very attractive. She
has many admirers. She IL interested
in writing, and we've always en-.
couraged her in this. But / am sorry
to say she doesn't take the slightest
interest in housework. And in spite
of my efforts to teach her, she re-
mains ignorant.
Somehow she just won't take the
right sort of interest. SO that she
can't boil any eggs today without
making a mistake of some sort
Now she has fallen in love with q
very nice boy. My husband and / ap-
prove of him highly, and there is
nothing to stand in the way of an
early wedding, but--Valerie herself.
Saskatchewan she processes to love
this boy-refuses to marry him on his
present income. She says II can't be q
success, when he has so little money.
Il am thoroughly angry With her.
l had no idea that our training would
make her so selfish and cruel.
"If she loved this boy better than
herself, she would take an interest in
housework for his sake. But she is
too selfish. She demands everything
and will give nothing. l cannot think
this IS all my fault. What course do
YOU adviser"
advise you, dear lady, to let your
daughter alone. She evidently knows
what she's doing. She is the clear
headed, thinking person who sees OBJ
Stacles as they really are.
She doesn't allow her vision to be-
come blurred with sentiment. She
doesn't smooth over things with the
phrase Love will triumph over all
difficulties
She knows that, because of her train
ing, her temperament, her tastes, she's
utterly untitled to do housework. She
is % and it's too late TO teach her to
love ii. What is interesting employ
ment to some women would be drudg-
cry to her.
DO you suppose that a life of drudg
cry with her husband would endear
him TO her the more?
Marriage. as you read in every news
paper, book and magazine of the pres.
ent day, liz business arrangement in
many ways. And in order to make the
business a success both parties must
be willing and eager TO do their al
lotted part
No matter how strong her love may
be for this boy she intends TO marry,
Valerie will never work herself into
the state where she's eager to cook.
She might go into the matrimonial
state joyously confident that love
would solve all difficulties. but six
months of patient application to
study she couldn't craps and couldn't
endure would shake her confidence not
little.
The old-fashioned theory that every
good girl should like housework is
diving. People are beginning to realize
that some girls will never like it-and
that for such girls matrimony is un-
wise until the financial situation is
such as to take some of the burden OF
labor off the young wife.
Valerie isn't as selfish as she sounds.
She knows that a marriage on his
present income and in her present
frame of mind would bring unhappi-
ness to both of them.
Mimi will be glad to answer any inquiries
directed TO this paper provided a stamped,
addressed envelope is inclosed.

Care of the Hair.

The real beauty of the hair lies IN
its color and it's luster; and this Is
particularly true these days OF very
short bobs, when length has been sac
rificed and thickness is counterfeited
by fuffiness.
Some people are born with hair OF
n beautiful rich coloring. And most
others can improve the quality of the
hair coloring by good care. But even
the exceptions--whose hair is an ugly
drab-can transform 1t into beauty by
giving 1t luster and life. Good care
will do this naturally: here arc few
suggestions for getting the same effect

Replacing Spring Coat.

Your old Spring coat is probably
showing signs of decrepitude. and al
ready you're considering its successor.
Have you any lessons TO learn from
past mistakes? Most of us haven't
discontinued our learning.
In buying your new coat, or your
daughters new coat, you should be
certain of at least one thing, and
that's fit You may have decided
already or the material and style, but
1T is something that must be studied
in the store. A coat must fit
smoothly. but not 100 snuggly, across
the shoulders and front. Both ap-
pearance and comfort demand it. The
coat should not. reveal any strain,
though. of course. some styles are
worn closer than others.

or does not? When the coat is slipped
on. pull it we'll M on the shoulders
