Paris, Oct. 29 R,-The pink cheeks Of good health are again coUntenanced by Parisian beauty specialists. Makeup of an oriental pallor. or Spanish olive which was so recently considered the last word, has been relegated to the has-been category.

An "0Ider Man Likes Her

Dear Miss Lee: I am a young woman
nv m m asp, Teens Sho There Is man six years
sees me he viii saw wien are YOU oI' going M
to give me that dateP" In my company
he, has always been perfect gentleman.
Although I am a high school student,
do Won think it would be ali right to 60
with him' Please give me your opinion.
Dear e. c.: If you could avoid
dates with older men for few more
years, E. c., I think it would be
lot better for you. An older man
would have more mature interests.
You can only be a young girl with
a young girls interests just once in
your life, and I hate to have you
miss this period.
However, it may be that you are
mentally developed far beyond boys
OF your age and that it takes an old
er man to interest you. Therefore,
I will not be too dogmatic in my
answer. Suppose you think this
matter out for yourself. Decide
where you are mentally, and if you
find satisfactory and clean COM
panionship with this young man,
go ahead.
From the tone fyour letter I
think he is just kidding" you be-
cause you are young and no doubt
attractive. If this is the case, then
take my advice and wait a while
longer.

of Senses
End Soon
BY MARTHA LEE

Some young people make the mis-
take of thinking that the pleasures
of life are limited to the body. With
Neitzchie's "All is permitted" for
their slogan, they proceed to dis
cover how quickly such pleasures
can be exhausted, and are ready to
commit suicide from ennui.
The remedy for the condition lies
in prevention rather than cure. Sen
sual delight is ephemeral, but real
joy is inexhaustible. The person
who learns where to look for joy in
childhood is safeguarded from the
boredom Of life.
Bergson says of joy: wherever
Joy is, creatiorP has been, and the
richer the creation, the deeper the
JOY" Early in life, the child should
be made acquainted with his own
creative abilities. There is no more
Intoxicating experience in life than
the realization of ones own powers
and no more effective antidote for
youthful suicides.
To Prevent Boredom
Dear Martha Lee: I am very much wor.
ried about. my nephew who has lived with
me since his mother died i've years ago.
thinks that he has experienced everything
that life has to offer. He takes @ strange
pleasure in reading all the accounts Of
terror for fear he will follow suit.
/, He has some, money Of his own from
allowance, and he goes to college. He is
bright boy. but seems so old for his
my ~ own 1t years OLD and oh. Miss Lee,
WHAT can do to prevent him from know.
ing so much that he is bored with lifel
l Il 40 mot not want hin. him to spend his life go
ANXIOUS MOTHER AND AUNT.
Dear Anxious Mother and Aunt:
Interest your little boy in some form
OF creative handwork. Let him work
with clay, with lumber, or with any
other material which he fancies, but
teach him early to originate some
thing. There is absolutely no end
to creation, and therefore no chance
to become bored. Any form of cre-
alive activity will safeguard your
child and bring a satisfaction into
his life that a ceaseless round Of
material pleasures Is powerless to
produce.
1t your nephew is bright, it is en-
tirely possible to direct his energies
into channels that stimulate and
interest him. Appeal to his mental
energies, if you can, and help him
to find new satisfaction in place Of
physical ones.
