Etiquette at 16.

Barbara writes serious little letter
for one who's not quite IS. She admits
that she's pretty young to be running
around with boys, but, still, the other
girls in her crowd have boy friends,
SO why shouldn't she have them, too?
She isn't really interested in the
question of whether she ought TO sec
men or not What most concerns her
at the present moment Is the question
Of etiquette.
She has such trouble about introduce
tons and things. Just lately she got
into a perfectly awful situation because
she didn't introduce one boy to another
boy at exactly the right moment, and
they think she's rude, or she thinks
that they think she's rude, or something
like that.
One of the boys has dropped her
altogether as a result Of her breach OF
etiquette. and she wants to know how
to be lady and get him back, all at
the same time.
Well. YOU see. Babs, all this nonsense
starts from the fact that you are much,
much too young to be having the KIND
of boy friends that you must take seri-
ouSiy.
At Is orr friendships with boys ought
to be of the most casual variety. We
ought to take them no more seriously
than WE do our girl friends. If we
have q pleasant. easy relationship with
them, we suffer no harm from 1t. But
if we put that relationship on grown
I'D basis and take the thing 10 heart,
then we're i'm for trouble.
You naturally haven't the faintest
idea Of social setiquette at your age
child Why should you have? Why
should you worry about introducing
boys to each other2 You haven't grown
up to that point yet, and it's ridiculous
to attempt to.
Any boy who is silly enough to take
offense at your casual little-girl manners
ought to be spanked.
AS a matter of fact, If you want the
brutal truth. / don't think he went
away simply because you forgot how to
make a proper introduction. / think he
went away in the normal, casual manner
of big boys who haven't time for kids.
If you start at this age fussing about
your manners and the boys reactions:
if you persist in taking every casual
friendship so seriously as to make 1t an
affair. you'll be a nervous, sensitive
little wreck by the time you ought to be
stepping out with perfect self-confi-
dence.
Don't make grown-up problems out
Of childish imaginings. Save your wor-
RIGS and fears for the time when you
may really need them.
Etiquette is not in fashion at Is. No
girl of Is need worry about it over
much SO long as she is with people her
own age.
What would be rude neglect in q girl
Of 10 is just a piece of childish igno-
rance in flapper of Is.
These may be harsh words. Maybe
you want to take yourself seriously
Maybe you'd rather imagine yourself
the heroine of superb affair.
But the sooner you get over these
vain imaginings the sooner you'll get
the careless. confident attitude of the
girl who will be popular at l8 or 10 or

the paper and you have the pattern.
Make two to simplify the cutting Of the
new cover.
Lay these pattern portions on the new
material so that the center fold of each
pattern portion is on the straight Of the
goods and the long line on the exact
bias. You viii find that by placing the
straight end of each pattern portion on
an opposite selvedge there will be no
waste material Cut along the edges.
Reverse this paper portion and lay it
on the other side of the second por-
ton and cut between them. Now you
have two triangleS of new material.
Continue as described until you have as
many triangles as there are segments.
Some persons first make an expert
mental cover Of cheap material before
cutting into expensive material, but this
is unnecessary to capable needle
woman With the amateur, however,
1t is advised.
Use a loose tension and machine
stitch the portions together, placing
them point to point. Slip the closed
frame tip through the hole left between
sections in the center of new cover.
Bind the ends of the cover to the top
end Of the frame where the ribs come
together Use a stout thread toFdo this.
Open the parasol and sew the cover to
the frame in the holes In the ribs Cut
a strip about one and half or more
inches wide from leftover goods. Seam
it into a strip. Gather it through the
center and put 1t over the tip of the
frame Fasten 1t so that it hides the
place where the cover was bound to the
frame at the nointed tips.
There is drilled hole near the end
of each rib in most parasols. Some
times there are depressions instead, the
purpose of which is the same. namely,
to aid in fastening the end of the bias
seams Each tip of material must be
securely held with strong thread through
the holes or be drawn down while the
shade is shut and bound TO depressed
place by winding stout thread around
and around the rib and the material.
The end of the thread must be fastened
SO that it viii not give.
Open the umbrella and go over all
the cover with wer sponge TO make 1t
At better by shrinking the fabric. Let
it remain open until perfectly dry. II
it is a patterned parasol, be sure 10
have material that will not run, or If
such an error has been made IN selec-
ton, of course. omit the sponging.

Moderation in Exercise.

There is not one good thing that
cannot be overdone with harmful
results. This truism applies with spe-
cial force to exercise.
There are two ways of looking at
exercise. One may engage In 1t for the
sheer pleasure of using ones muscles
and feeling the healthful glow that it
brings, or one may use 1t as means
to an end To the average girl or woman
exercise Is valuable only when it is use
full in making her more beautiful by
reducing or developing her figure to
graceful proportions.
This purely unitarian view of ex-
ercise sometimes results in overex-
ertion Milady reasons that If twenty
repetitions of given exercise will
reduce her hips an inch in several
months time, fifty or one hundred
repetitions should give her truly boy
ish figure in short order. so she goes to
work doggedly and succeeds perhaps in
straining her heart and making her
muscles stiff and sore.
This danger should be guarded
against, especially by the woman more
than 40 or As years Of age who turns to
exercise as a means of reducing super
f1uous fat. She perhaps finds it too
difficult to control her dietetic habits,
fects by doing strenuous exercise. She
may have some unsupported organic
disorder that will be brought to head
by excessive physical exertion. For this
reason the mature woman who wishes
to lose weight should have thorough
physical examination by doctor be-
fore embarking on a reducing program.
Lack of moderation in exercise may
also have the effect of making girl
too muscular. Few of us who are not
manual workers, professional dancers or
gymnasts have use for large, hard mus
cle3 They are not useful to us in our
daily routine of living, but once &C
quired, if we fail to give them plenty of
exercise, we become fat. Strenuous ex-
ercise builds up big, heavy muscles, and
more exercise is required to keep these
muscles in good condition. While I am
firm believer in physical culture for
women feel that the average girl who
does not expect to be a professional
athlete should not develop massive mus
cles Enough muscular development to
make her body gracefully formed, active
and supple should be her ideal.
Do not, however, be so moderate in
taking exercise as to neglect 1t alto
gether The muscles need daily exercise
