These, like scarfs, go on by a
simple twist of a ribbon bow,
making them doubly useful
over spring frocks and coats.
Coat Fashions
For those who believe that
furs and fabrics are the Siam
ese twins of coat fashions,
there are some unusually lovely
fur collars this spring. Not
cuffs, because sleeves will be
simply tailored this season. But
the big excitement is a schiapa-
relli's jabot COLLAR ripping,
ruffly affair that winds down
from throat to waist in a long,
sinuous line. This is right
in line with that same
madcap's wind-blown silhouette,
which fronts for coats and suits
alike this spring. If four out Of
five spring coats do not have
this Schiaparelli jabot collar,
then we permanently retire
from the fashion forecasting
business!
Perhaps the incest thing
about this fur-and-fashion tie
up in the new coats is the way
furS are being dyed to match
fabric colors-champagne brown

course, and even navy blue fox

her." It may hurt but if she
really loves her child she will
face it without whimpering.
CONSULT DOCTOR
Question. How can I tell II
my child has worms?
MRS. H. G.
Answer. Either by careful
observation Of laboratory test.
If you think your baby has
worms take him to a doctor for
examination. Don't try to
treat him yourself.
SCURVY
Question. Could you tell me
what is Scurvy. 1 see you refer
to it in your column.
MRS. T. J.
Answer. Scurvy is a nutri.
tional disease caused by lack Of
vitamir1 C. It may be prevent
ed by the use of citrous fruits
(oranges. lemons, grapefruit) or
raw or canned tomato juice or
raw cabbage.
Children with scurvy do not
gain weight; they are irritable
and object to being handled;
they are pale and may suffer
from pain or a peculiar sensi-
tivenesS in the arms and legs:
they may bleed from the gums
or skin. It is more common in
infants than older children but
may occur at any age.

Help to Build

With the Christmas rush all
over, we can now snoop around
in shops for new ideas without
having to see a lot Of odds and
ends on display to- distract us.
Some months ago we made q
comment on the lovely mother
of-pearl nail polish worn by a
young actress whom we inter-
viewed, and now we find that
this particular shade is gain

Wet found it in one Of the
Connecticut Avenue shops and
were assured that it Is in great

what chic is all about. AS a

and silver cast is most attrac-

an alluring sheen.
This liquid polish is particu.

used with frocks with which
the shades Of red would clash.
1t is stunning with reds and

which need a calming influence.

HOLLYWOOD DESIGNERS MUST ANTICIPATE FASHIONS SEVERAL MONTHS
Esss Disagree e
With Some
Children
Bv MARTHA WINsLOW

The subject of eggs for the
very young child has to be
handled carefully, as there are
some children who cannot take
them.
It is well, If the child has
never tasted an egg, to begin
with a small quantity Of the
yolk, increasing the amount
gradually until he is taking the
who, egg.
BY that time you will have
discovered If your particular
youngster is one Of those who
cannot take eggs. Such a child
may voinit repeatedly after eat
ing even the tiniest portion Of
an egg or he may break out
with a rash. If he does, do
not offer the egg again until
you have consulted his physi-
clan.
Valuable Food
For the average child, one
who does not suffer from this
curious reaction, eggs are among
the most valuable Of foods, as
they are rich in iron, prote1ns
and vitaminS.
A fresh egg should be given
q child every day, soft-boiled
or hard-boiled, poached, scran1-
bled, or in a cuStard.
Even in winter, when eggs
are expensive, they should be
given every child under 6, If
possible. Practice the necessary
economies on the grown-ups'
table.
Eggs are most digestible when
cooked slowly in water that Is
not quite boiling. II they are
cooked until hard the white
should be chopped finely and
yoke thoroughly mashed.
In Second Year
Meat and fish supply valua-
BILE proteins, minerals and vita
minis. AS a rule pediatricians
order beef and chicken broths
for the baby about the time he
begins taking vegetables.
At the beginning Of the Sec
ond year he may be receiving
small servings of tender meat,
beef, chicken, lamb or liver,
boiled, broiled or roasted two or
three times a week. At 18
months his doctor will probably
order one meat serving a day.
Once or twice a week steamed,
baked or boiled, fresh fish may
be substituted for meat. Cod,
haddock and halibut are best
for the child under four years
Of age as hey contain little fat.
The older child may have any
fresh fish. It is important that
the fish be ,,erfectly fresh and,
especially for the younger child,
that all bones be removed.
Fond Of Meat
Bacon - c-equently ordered
by physicians quite early and is
one Of the most digestible Of
foods. It should be sliced very
thin and cooked until crisp.
Children as q rule are very
fond Of meat and will prefer it
to other foods. They should
never be permitted, however, to
eat it in the place Of vegetables
or milk.
It is one food, they never have
to be urged to eat and the dan
ger is that they will eat too
much Of it, not too little.

AS you no doubt know, Travis
Banton is a veteran designer
for the films. He has created
many Of the clothes you've ad-
mired in the movies, and as he
has been at it for nine years,
you've probably seen plenty Of
them.
Must Be Ahead
Hollywood designers must be
as clever as those in Paris,
and they must be more up-to-
the-minute than most design
ers on the East Coast, for their
things are shown sometimes
several months after they are
created, and they must still
have that fresh, new look.
Sometimes they must even look
extreme.
Mr.. Banton says that he is
able to keep abreast of Paris
because each Of them create
separately. but that fashions
follow q cycle, and each Of
them take the next step" at
the same time.
Fabrics Suggest
Furthermore, Paris fabric
houses have branches in or near
Hollywood, and show to the
cinema designers at the same
time they do to the couture Of
Paris, and as materials suggest
many fashions. the same gen.
sral types evolve in both places.
New Clothes Spirit
One reason he is visiting the
East this year instead of taking
his usual trip to Paris is because
he thinks New York has taken
such a prominent place in the
fashion world that it isn't nec-
eSSary to go abroad.
He was amr zed at how quickly
che tempo Of the town changed
after repeal, and how soon it af-
fected fashions. He says that
New York women are wearing
their clothes in q more spirited
way.
Peg Tops Return
According to Mr.. Banton, the
next thing we can look forward
to is a revival Of the 1913 sill
houette, long narrow skirt with
peg-top drapery. This drapery
will be much modified of course,
but will be there. The idea is
refreshing. and has enormous
possibilities.

she'd lived here all her life.
She has successfully captured

satisfied and generally drops
them for someone newer in q
few weeks time.
She has wrapped my boy
friend round her finger for the
last three weeks. I am not
Jealous as q rule, but I know
she is doing this to make me
angry. Would you please tell
me what I could do to win this
young man back without max

to aid this friendship all you
can. Take it as rather a Joke.

Crossing Bridge

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
A question has arisen as to
whether or not the hostess at a
bridge game committed a breach
Of etiquette when a person, un-
invited by the hostess, but
brought in by the latter'S sis
ter, was told cordially to go into
another room and take off her
things and that the game would
be finished shortly. This per-
son Immediately took offense
and left the house murmuring
something about impoliteness,
due to the fact that the game
was not stopped when she en-
tered. Did the hostess commit
a breach of etiquette? r.
Indeed the hostess didn't COM
NIT a social error. She did ex-
actly the right and sensible
thing. Naturally "the game
must go on" there was no
point of stopping it, since the
guest was a casual one unin-
/ vited by the hostess, and since
the game was to last only q
short while anyway. It is RI.
diculous and immature for q
person not to adapt herself to
such a definite situation; and
for her to expect the game to
stop, to expect that everyone
should be inconvenienced for her
sweet sake, is absurd, ungracious
and unmannerly. We don't ex-
