rich and very good for dry
skin. Thoroughly pat this into
the skin until it is soft. If you
have the time lie down for a
few minutes and let the cream
soak in after you have patted it.
If you do have time to rest put
pads of cotton wet with an ex-
cellent eye lotion on your eyes
and lie still for a few minutes
all creamed up with pads on
your eyes. The pads make you
feel as if you were "laid out"
but when you get UP and get
your makeup on you will be
fresh as a daisy.
Take all traces of cream off
with tissues. Pat a bit of skin
tonic into the skin and apply a
light foundation cream. Then
put on your makeup. You will
find that these creams are excel
lent, mild, effective and you
will look as if you'd had a
weeks vacation if you do this
every evening for a week or so.
It takes so little time, but the
results are so gratifying that I
urge you to try it.
If you don't particularly like
this treatment, try one of the
others. But do try one or more
of them. Let me know how you
like them. =

AS mothers know, the child
wants to help himself as he
grows older, and his clothes
give him the opportunity to do
so.
Clothes that are easily taken
off and put on give him a
chance to do for himself, and
this gives him a feeling of in
dependence.
Clothes Help Child
There's almost nothing chill
dren can't do for themselves
now. Modern clothes without
hooks or buttons are available,
and are easily fastened without
the help of mother or nurse.
They are smartly styled too,
so that the child will really like
them. and will not feel Gin
ferior" because Of his clothes.
New Type Now Out
Along the lines of training
the very small child to help
himself, some new underwear
has been developed, and it
seems to me that it is extremely
good.
1t has lastex woven in at the
neckline. sleeves and the bot
tom of the shirts, so the child
can slip right into the garment
without any buttons to bother
with. Then the shirt. will hold
its shape, and will not be
washed into a mere piece of
cloth.
Panties Too
The little panties or drawers
likewise have lastex band at
the waist and around the legs.
This serves the same purpose.
In case you don't know about
lastex. it is a marvellous
stretchy thread that is not in.
jured by laundering and is
woven right into the material.
The bands are not tight and
will not cut off circulation or
be uncomfortable.

eats"
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am in love with a young
man who comes to our house
to see me and who is very
nice, but here's what happened
on my birthday: Mother and
my girl friend got up a sur
prise party and among others
invited this boy. But he
wouldn't sit down to the table
and eat the things we had
ice cream, cake and party food
like that.
I coaXed and coaxed him to
find out what was the matter,
and discovered he was pouting
because there was no liquor
served. Naturally, mother is
disguised, and I just don't
know what to think of a man
VINO behaVed that way.
WONDERING.
Not difficult to size up the
behavior of that young man
he just didn't know any better.
And I don't wonder that your
mother was disgusted with his
boorishness.. If you go on with
this friendship, you'll have to
try to teach him to behave bet
ter. But it's pretty hard to
love a man of whom you're
ashamed and who is likely to
embarrass you on all occasions.
Husband Not Demonstrative
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am in my early twenties
and my husband is a little
older. We have been married
for three years and have an
adorable baby year old. I'm
terribly in love with my hus-
band and couldn't live without

mixture after salt has been
added to it. This Hawaiian
Curry" of Mrs. Cloman's may
be used with lobster, chicken,
veal, lamb, hard boiled eggs,
or fried eggplant. It should be
served with rice surrounding
the curry in a ring, and with
the following condiments:
Bombay duck, or chopped
crisp bacon; chopped green
peppers; grated eoconut;
chopped peanuts; chutney;
quarters of lemons or grape
fruit pulp.
These should all be placed in
the different sections of an
hors d'oeuvres dish, and passed
after the curry and rice have
been served.
If you use the curry as a.
main luncheon course, follow
1t with a simple salad Of TO-
maine or lettuce, with sliced
cold ham. and a very light
fruit dessert, such as chopped
pineapple and Strawberries.

Mrs. Cloman also writes that
at present in California the
latest trick is to give a dinner
for ten persons which can not
cost over two dollars, and, if
possible, under that. This sum
represents the total expenditure
on food for the dinner, and I
understand that the record is
now held by a certain hostess
who managed to provide a
delicious meal for one dollar
and seventy-eight cents! It
might be amusing to try it
some time, and if any of you do
accomplish the feat please
write and tell me, and include

Polly-the only name she has
even known-is a gentle bird
and particularly fond of Mrs.
Fred Nickols, secretary at the
Club. Polly climbed up on her
arm and looked around quiz
zically at the photographer
and me.
Temperamental
She has been a privileged
member at the Riding and
Hunt Club for 10 years, and
she wasn't going to be disturbed
by any girl reporter from q
newspaper.
Soon. however, Polly became
inspired, and then she began to
hum. l couldn't recognize the
tune, but she hummed, she
climbed around to one side of
her cage and quietly posed for
her picture.
Polly can say a great many
things. But her long suit" is
crying and she loves to cry, just
like a baby. It would break
your heart to hear her.
Age Unknown
She has a nice big cage, near
the entrance at the club, where
she can see all that goes on.
And Polly doesn't miss a trick.
No one knows how old she is,
but parrots are traditionally
long-lived.
She eats plentifully of pump
kin seeds and sunflower seeds
and occasionally has a piece Of
apple. She adores peanuts
and has a rabbit-like craving for
carrots.
Polly spends most of her time
on the outside of her cage,
climbing all over it. At night
she stays at the club-and sits
peacefully on the top of her
cage until the club is opened in
the morning. Just let anyone
try to break in at night, and
Polly would be on him like a
flash.

other girls husbands, and
here's my problem:
In our crowd all the hus-
bands do little mild spoonins
when they're out together. One
couple who have been married
longer than we have kiss each
other quite frankly, and the
wife gibes at me because my
husband never pets in public.
Another thing is he doesn't
play and romp with the baby
as other fathers do. He isn't
grouchy by any means, but he
isn't loving, and when I put my
arms around him, he says:
Nov, must you go through all
that again?" I just feel like
packing up and leaving him.
He tells me his love is in his
heart, and it's not necessary to
display it in public. If I need .
bawling out, I'm willing to
take it.
LOVE-STARVED WIFE.
If this gentleman were my
husband. I should prefer his
reserve to the public petting

these friends of yours. Public
petting is apt to be mighty
funny to all but the PETERS.
Haven't you been amused by it
on suburban cars, returning
from beaches in summertime.
When your husband tells you
his affection is in his heart.
better take that for granted.
You tell me you couldn't live
without him; then, why on
earth do you think of packing
up and leaving him?
If you will forgive me for
saying so, I think you're look

Older Playmates
A simply worded explanation
of how he has hurt Mary will
help. But a more lasting solu-
ton of the problem will be the
guiding of Johns play instincts
into more harmonious channels.
A few playmates older than
himself will also help John to
find himself socially. The disci-
pline of his contemporaries is
more acceptable to the child
than that of adults. The exam
pie of other children is concrete
and easier to understand than
the abstract moralizing of the
grown-up. John pushes Mary
and mother scolds. He pushes
Jackie next door and Jackie
comes back with a harder push.
The reason why pushing is not
socially advisable is far clearer
after Jackie's push than moth
er's Scolding.

The Public Utilities Committee of

citizens rather than assuming the re-

the conduct of its citizens.
IF the Government assumes the
responsibility of attempting TO en-

will require all of the personnel of
the Army. all of the personnel of the

statement that the company would
not interfere, and 5000 workers we're
eligible to cast ballots, an unoficial
check showed only about 80 employees
voted IN the II hours the polls were

The election was held at the re-
quest Of Gen. Hugh S. johnson, who
dlsregarded a ballot on the repre-
sentation question 10 days ago-which
ne had ordered postponed at that
time.
Demand Union Vote.
After the first balloting, at which
workers decided in favor of the en-
ploye representation plan, members
of the United Automobile Workers
Union, an American Federation Of
Labor affiliate, charged 300 former
employees who were not rehired after
a strike several months ago were not
permitted to vote.
They asserted if the 300 had cast
ballots the voting would have gone
in favor of the union as the employees
choice for representation. Taking
cognizance Of this statement. Johnson
ordered the second vote. ruling the
800 men be allowed to participate.
These 800 however, decided at a
meeting Sunday not to participate in
the voting.

Opposition to the balloting devel-
oped because the only question on
which the workers we're asked TO
votsAEas:

Many workers contend this meant
those union supporters who do not

the union.
