SUB ROSA
BY MIMI.

This isn't going to be talk about
bargains, and I'm not going to steal
the dressmaker's stuff. No, I want to
vouchsafe a little information, as it
were, about the prevailing style in
women's wear. Yep, it's the style that's
bound to prevail.
It looks little as though the mod
ern woman had taken her cue from the
Venus of Milo instead of Queen Eliza
beth, for there is something distinctly
Grecian in the costumes of girls who
dress without formality or formalda-
hyde Now why or wherefore?
Well, it's something like this: Women
got tired of being common carriers for
bales of drygoods and they went out Of
the freight business about the time
parcel post put the express companies
out of commission. Women thought
that dress should reveal an idea, If
nothing else.
You won't get the dress idea until
you wise up your little old bean to the
idea that woman is just as eSthetic as
she is dramatic. Never mind these
cross word puzzle words. mean the
woman feels that she was meant for
the stage and studio, not kitchen and
Office
Well. our modern dress gives us a
chance to star in where the Greek
models left of. OF course, no sensible
girl believes that she is going to be
asked to pose for the statue of Diana
or liberty But, all the same, she feels
that she may have some sort of a
shape, and most women are more proud
of form than of face.
Watch 'em REDUCED! There's a rea-
son. And there's reason for the mod
ern frock, with its low visibility. 1t isn't
anything serious, and won't require
Congress to pass another amendment.
It's just woman, the debutante woman
of today. coming out.
I know it looks as though women had
gone back to savagery, but you'll find
that the why's and whereforeS of her
tricky toys are only evidences of her
natural desire for self-expresSion.
Naturally there is a sense of free
dom in womans attire, and freedom is
her big word today. wonder how the
Statue of Liberty feels all logged out
in that impossible skirt of hers?

Oily Hair.

Hair that becomes oily and stringy
soon after it has been shampooed Gre
ates an annoying beauty problem, es-
pecially in warm weather.
The underlying cause of excessive
oiliness is lack of physical fitness, but
there are also easily controlled local
causes that contribute to the condition.
One of the commonest of these Is
lack of thoroughness in washing the
hair.
I am often asked If once a week is
too often to wash very oily hair. Any
sort of hair should be washed as soon
as it becomes dusty Of course oily
hair catches and holds dirt particles
more readily than does dry hair, and
oil also tends to become rancid. When
the hair has been exposed to smoky,
dirty atmosphere it needs cleaning
sooner than otherwise. In general,
oily hair requires shampooing once
every seven days.
Thoroughness in shampooing Is es-
sential. To help loosen the oily
dandruff olive Oil may be applied to
the scalp and steamed in with hot
towels before the hair is washed. OIL
treatments are good to use on both
dry and oily scalps before the sham
poo. The olive oil softens the deposits
of natural oil so that they may be
easily washed out and it does not
make the hair oilier if the latter is
washed well with soap and water after
ward.
Use a mild soap in liquid form for
the shampoo. Tincture of green soap
is especially good for oily hair. Lather
and rinse the hair well four to six sepa-
rate times. and be sure to get the
soap out of the hairline across the fore
head and at the neck A special hair
line brush or small hair brush may
be used at these places. Use soft
water If possible for the shampoo. An
acid rinse may be used to dissolve the
soap curd on the hair after the soap
has been washed off as thoroughly as
possible. Mix six ounces acetic acid,
eight ounces alcohol and two quarts
water. Pour a little of the mixture
over the hair (about one-half cupful
for short hair) and then rinse it off
in the clear water. Do not use an acid
rinse on dyed hair, however. Dry with
warm towels.
II the hair becomes oily before it
Is time for the weekly shampoo, an
astringent scalp tonic may be used.

When duck is used for a meal there

an economical and delicious soup to
serve for luncheon. It is planned for

WHY CAMP.
by Alice Judson Peale)

What can a summer camp do for
your child?
If he were otherwise doomed to
spend the summer in the paved city
streets. the answer is obvious enough.
But If you are so fortunate as to live
within walking distance of the woods.
or II you own a sumn1er refuge in
some remote. secluded spot. where the
children can live like Indians" it is
not apparent that a summer camp
has anything unique to offer.
And yet it has. Summer out of
doors with ones family is thing
and probably a very delightful one,
but summer out Of doors in the ex-
elusive society Of playrnates and
equals is quite another.
What car camp do for your child
that you are unable to do? Many
things. It can teach him to get
along without you for a short period
CT time. The harder this lesson. the
more important it is for him to
learn.
1t ear give him opportunity to &C.
quire in an environment which is at
once stimulating and safe all sorts OF
physical skill for the learning Of
which no home has resources OF
equipment.
Camp can teach your child to get
along with children Of his own age
here there are no special immunities
and he must learn to give and take
with the rest.
He quite rightly takes his parents
love for granted. but the approval Of
the group he must win through hi;
own efforts. He gains the respect Of
his fellows because he learns to de-
things we'll. because he Is a good
sport. because he never squeals o.
grouches.
The influence of life in a good camp
is all toward the development Of those
social virtues which life demands Of
everyone.
