your example Of humanitarian
interest and sympathy.
There are so many children in
this world who need a word OF
praise, a smile of understanding,
the helping hand motivated by
love and sympathy. The boy who
brings your groceries, the boy
who hands you a telegram, who
delivers your evening paper. or
who accompanies your child home
to play. And remember that the
child with whom you can most
easily become patient, most
easily dislike, is the one who prob
ably needs YOU most.
We can all find things to do
for the children of the world.
1t isn't enough to be passively
good to them. SNUG in the knowl-
edge that we have never abused
a child. Let us Do something
about the child who annoys us,
or who annoys someone else and
is reprimanded for it. There is
a reason for a rule for a child's
exciting dislike. Let's find the
reason and see If we can't help
iron out his path a bit. Really
knowing a person, young or old,
will usually temper our dislike,
our impatience. Make it a point
to KNOW the child who Is
repulsive to you and you will find
many things about him which
are admirable, and quite possibly
help him to overcome the habits
and characteristics which are un-
attractive.

AID VICE FOR
LOVELORN
YOUTH
By Beatrice Fairfax

Dear Miss Fairfax:
This IL the first~-tim l have
taken the liberty to write you,
but I think It Is necessary.
I have been going out with a
young man a year. We have
been engaged going on six
months. Now he has gone away
for his company. Since he has
gone I do not miss him, and
when 1 think about him / can't
see what I ever saw in him. My
love-or perhaps 1t was infatua-
tion-for him has died since he
has gone.
have been near no other
young men that thought l liked
better; in fact, am still trying to
remain true to him although I
do not care for him.
His letters show that he is in
love with me. but 1t doesn't
arouse any interest in me when
l read them. BY marrying him
i would he doing an injustice to
myself. Please advise me what
to do. A STEADY READER
Before you decide to give up
your fiance and break the en-
gagement, Steady Reader. plan to
see him once more. We deceive
ourselves sometimes, with regard
to our affections. Absence does
ont always make the heart grow
fonder. You may discover when
you and he meet that he is very
dear to you after all.
Doubtless he will be home for
a visit in the course of a few
months. Wait-see whether the
old. spark Of love does not kindle
again on seeing him-possibly 1t
has only died down.

CHOOSE SOMETHING IN VELVET!
Published by Special Arrangement with Good Housekeeping
This Luxurious Fabric
Most Popular for
Winter Wear

WHEN we were very little
w girls, the idea we had Of
queen was a regal.looking per.
son. dressed in velvet and wearing
a gorgeous crown. And 1t was
the secret ambition of our lives
to some day own a velvet gown.
Now, that we're grown up, we
find that it Is one of the easiest
things in the world to realize this
ambition, for, everywhere we go,
We find velvet. Every little girl
can be queen in a velvet gown
nowadays. for this fabric. once
thought to be the height of luxury.
is now accepted as leisurely as
it's more humble sisters.
No wardrobe is complete this
season without, at least. one
velvet gown. whether 1t be a semi
sports model or a more formal
ensemble.
The jacket suit illustrated is
of black. transparent velvet, with
an attached blouse of eggshell
satin. The jacket is cut on the
cardinal style, and the pleated
frill of the blouse Is charming
and youthful touch. The skirt
is made on a yoke. and the front
fullness dips slightly below the
rolled hem. Worn with a pilot
hat of black velvet, this Is one
of the most charming outfits one
could own.
The semi-princess afternoon
frock. featuring the new nodded
silhouette. is another charming
example of this vogue for velvet.
Developed in wine color velvet, it
possesses a quaintness and charm
that imparts itself to the wearer.
The feminine touch is given by
the soft jabot of velvet and lace,
and the circular front skirt dips
slightly below the hemline. Worn
with this, is smart hat of wine
color felt, showing the wider on
one side hrim, and trimmed sim.
ply by a fold of matching satin
ending in tiny bow at the left
side. Complimenting the whole,
is a bag and shoes Of wine color
suede, and a carnelian necklace
and bracelet are the last touches
to a charming afternoon frock.
So be queen for this sea-
son, and wear velvet. 1t gives a
luxurious feeling that nothing else
in the world can bring, and with
the knowledge that one is wear
ing the very smartest material of
the season, one can be really COM
placent and equally sure Of being
dressed a la mode.

be five hours; it should have
