Advice

Love|orn
By Beatrice Fairfax

And Now Look What Happened!
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm a high school girl and
my parents told me to get ac-
quainted with more girls. I'd
been palling with a girl I'll
call G. We got along fine
until G. introduced another
girl, whom I'll call L. L. per-
Suaded G.. to take my boy
friend from me. They sue
ceeded, and now I'm minus
fellow.
This affair of "swiping" my
boy friend didn't get me mad
at anyone, and I try to be
friendly with all, but it has
cut me out of the picture for
the past two months, and nat
urally I'm left out of things,
which makes me cry some
times. The ex-boy friend
claims he's disguised with him.
self for being so easily influ-
enced, and he isn't getting on
very. well with G., but he
says he won't lower himself by
sneaking back to any girl.
Would he be lowering him.
self? How can win him over
his decision?
HIGH SCHOOL GIRL.
Being friendly with every
one concerned impresses me as
very sensible. This little group
will probably reshuffle itself
again in another few weeks,
and :'ou'll save yourself the
bother of remembering who's
mad" and who's glad" with
whom.
Lowering himself" is a
funny phrase to use in this
connection; don't you think so?
And if I were only fortunate
enough to be of high school age
and in your shoes, I'd feel that
maybe I'd be lessening my dig
nifty in taking back boy so
easily influenced as this young
man. Why let another girl
direct his affairs of the heart?
He's One of Those Foreigners
Dear Miss Fairfax:
While going to high school
I devoted my time to my
studies and as a result had
high rating at commencement.
I have a fine home. true friends
and everything 1 want except
a sweetheart. AS I am attrac-
tive, had many chances to
have dates, but it always hap
pened that men were the type
1 didn't care to know. Rather
than be friendly with them, I
read and found ther diver.
Sions. Now, after three years,
I have found the man Of my
dreams.
Miss Fairfax, we love each
other to distraction, but Mother
refuses to admit him to our
home, and Daddy always agrees
with Mother, so he can't posi-
bly, help me. The reason for
this tumult is his race.
Don't you think, as we love
each other and there is moth
ing against him but the preju-
dice of my family, that we
would be happy? l have cried,
pleaded and coaxed, but my
family insist 1 could get anyone
I wanted, and they despise him
as a foreigner. SISTER.
When I get a letter like yours
I wonder if people who have
such racial intolerance realize
that we Americans are equally
foreign" to Europeans.
I have not quoted the young
mans nationality, but he comes
from a race rich in achieve.
ment and having high degree
of civilization and culture.
If there is nothing against
him but that, and you are Of
age. believe honestly you are
entitled to listen to the dictates
Of your own heart.

My skin is very dry and thin
and have found that If I
use powder Of the right weight
and texture, which is a light.
fine powder. I can use a light
flesh shade, although I have
o fairly ruddy complexion.
Getting Effects
So when you are purchasing
powder choose it according to
weight and texture more than
color. Here is a tip, however,
on the color which you might
find valuable:
If your face is thin and you
wish to make it appear little
fuller, use powder of a slightly
lighter shade. On the other
hand, If your face is inclined
to be too full, use powder in a
darker shade than your skin.
These little touches fool the
public amazingly.
A great many oily-skinned
women think that they must
use a very heavy powder. so
that it will stay on and cover
up the shininess. This Is not
necessarily true.
Texture Decides
Fine powder clings just as
satisfactorily as heavy powder
If it has the property Of ad-
herence. And a heavy powder
may prove detrimental to an
oily skin if this skin has a
tendency to enlarge pores.
In choosing powder, all
women should choose one that

Child Health
Questions
Cod Liver Oil

Q.-COuld you make any Sug-
gestiOs1S about training my
child to take his cod liver oil.
He is three weeks old and my
doctor has told me to start him
on it in a week.-Mrs.. C. L. B.
A.-Strange as it may seem
the majority Of children like
cod liver oil. You must, how
ever, avoid as far as possible
conditioning" them against it
by letting them see that you
yourself or other grown-ups do
not share their enthusiasm.
In giving it to a very young
baby lay the infant across your
lap, open its mouth and pour
in the oil little by little. If it
is given regularly he will accept
it as he does other food. Pro
tect his clothing with a towel
as the oil leaves a stain. 1t is
sometimes wise, after he Is able
to take it sitting up, to give 1T
to him in his bath and when
he is undreSSed.
But beware of letting him see
that you don't like it.

Correct
Manners
BY MRS. CORNELIUS
BEECKMAN
After the Dance


ATCer the Dance
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
When you have completed a
dance and your partner escorts
you to a chair and remains
seated with you until you are
again asked to dance by an
other partner even though one
or more dance numbers have
been played by the orchestra
in the meantime. should you
excuse yourself from your first
partner before accepting the
second invitation to dance. and
if so, what should you say?
When your partner thanks
you for a dance. is it neces-
sary to say anything further
than "You are welcome, I en-
joyed our dance tx or is
some other form preferable?
T.
Say something like this:
will you excuse me. please?
I so much enjoyed our dance
together"
Don't use the first part Of
your sentence. "You are well
come" is unnecessary. and pro-
vincial. The last part of your
sentence is the right kind of
thing to say, II enjoyed that
dance so much" or 1T was a
DELIGHTFUL dance"
Take Back Seat
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
When riding in our automo-
bile (sedan) with my husband
and a girl friend. what seat
should I take? Should ride
alongside my husband. who
does the driving, or sit in the
rear seat with my girl friend?
Is it correct for me to use
an ecru lace tablecloth with
matching napkins of linen when
serving dinner for four at 6
o'clock in the evening? B.
/. Sit in the rear seat with
your friend. It is definitely
ungracious for a hostess to sit
in the front seat with her hus-
band, leaving the guest to sit
alone in the rear seat.
2. Yes. Ecru lace tableCloths
and napkins are very effective
and very popular.

Question: 1 always dampen
my hair with water before
pressing the waves into place.
Someone told me this is not
a good idea. What do you
suggest? I'd appreciate your
help, because 1 want to keep
my hair in good condition.
Answer: Use a good hair
curling fluid or, better still,
spray on a little brilliantine
before setting your waves. Con-
stantly wetting the hair is not
good for it, and apt to be too
drying.

causes this? Would an eye

Answer: Yellowish eyeballs
may be caused by eating too
much rich. heavy food. Some
times such a condition is due
to sluggish liver or constipa-

suit your physician and have
