A permanent wave can be no it to you. Your head is in her hands, so to speak, and : her skill in winding the hair around the rods determines just how sat isfactory the permanent will be- Therefore, selecting the operator Is just as important as getting the right kind of wave for your type of hair.
 First. go to reliable shop. Bar gain waves are perfectly all right, providing you know the rep utation of the shop that is spon- soring a permanent sale." Other wise. it is better to pay a little more and be sure that the results will be pleasant. But make sure that you're getting what you pay for.
 If you've chosen certain brand of permanent wave, it's fairly sim pie to tell whether or not the op- orator is using the pads sponsored by that brands manufacturer be- cause the pads are plainly stamp ed with the trade name.
 Your hair should be thoroughly washed, rinsed several times and carefully dried before it is parted in tiny sections, preparatory to be- ing wound on the rods. Incident ally. the smaller the parts and thinner the sections the tighter the wave will be. Hair that is very coarse usually is parted in pretty large sections and wound rather heavily on the rods. Otherwise it may be too fuzzy.

PARIS STYLES By MARY KNIGHT

 Paris U(P)-It's high treason to appear these days in fashionable circles without feathers sprouting somewhere from your costume. You can do the bird tricks, ad- vocated by Schiaparelli, or the feather cape things launched by Molyneux.
 Bright little South Sea birds perched at shoulders, or corners of evening decolletages are smiled upon by the elect here. And the feathered capes, either of curled ostrich. or straight coq feathers, are an entering wedge in any feminine heart.
 Lady Idina Holdeman. before leaving for Cairo, ordered @ peach crinkled crepe satin eve ming dress with peach ostrich feather cape from Molyneux. Peach chiffon covers the shoulders and the feathers begin midway between shoulder and elbow. Very pale at first they deepen into al- most orange and the tips curl up like inverted question marks. Feathers also are found on hats. either poised jauntily on crown, or brim, as if ready to take | off on moments notice, or they trail in wispy fashion off the brim, l sweep down the neck toward the shoulder and curl up again at the ear as if whispering. into it some mysterious message.
 Feather purses, belts and bows form important accessories and are sometimes covered with a fine net to protect them.

It's The Fur Trimmed Talem That Figures With The 400
 
wOOLENS OF VARIED WEIGHTS 4

NEA Service Stan Correspondent
 New York.-The very air over Manhattan seems electrified these days as smart young society ma irons and debutantes meet in this hotel or that restaurant to discuss plans for forthcoming events. And to one interested in what they are wearing. the scenes are quite
 We caught a glimpse of Mrs George A. Huhn and Miss Eugenie Crawford as they left the Junior and Debutante committee meeting held in the open in Central Park where plans were discussed for the glamorous Blue and White Ball at the Hotel Plaza. Mrs Huhn wore a light-weight woolen frock, topped by a fur cape that buttoned on one side. Her gloves were white and so was a double grosgrain band that went across the crown of her straw hat.
 Miss Crawford's two-piece spring suit of heavy woolen consisted of a straight skirt and full-length, double-breasted coat with enor- nous fur collar. Her wide brimmed hat turned up in the front and two brilliant quills were poised on the turned-up section.
 At that same committee meeting were Barbara Webb and Nancy Sewall. Barbara had on a multi colored woolen dress and a stun ming silver fox scarf. Miss Sew all's silk frock was worn under a swagger coat with raglan sleeves.
 But not all committee activities for this important ball take place under the sun in Central Park. Miss Grace Richardson, chairman of the Debutante Committee, en- tertained members of her group at Le Bijou restaurant and once again suave spring fashions were in order.
 Miss Richardson wore a swagger suit and brimmed straw hat trimmed with white band and bow. Miss Betty Kip had on a printed dress and tailored coat with wide, pointed lapels.
 Officers of the Westover Alum nae met at the home of Mrs Rob- ert De Vecchi to discuss plans for which have been planned by the group for the benefit of the Ment- vale Summer Camp.
 Mrs De Vecchi wore hand some silk dress with exaggerated | lingerie touches at the neckline and wrists. Mrs Chandler Cudlipp, another member of that committee, topped a printed, long-sleeved frock by a wide-brimmed hat with white band. The other two officers, | Mrs John R. Tench and Mrs Ralph H. Boots, wore two-piece knitted suit and a silk dress with interesting embroidery on the sleeves, respectively.

 q am little carly she said, seeing Pablito and then com- ing close to him, her hand in both of his. She had known it would be like this, she reminded herself. All her happiness was washed from her and forgotten.
 Pablito could not keep his adoration from his eyes. He had flushed darkly as she drew near.
 I'm so glad to see you she whispered unsteadily.
 @ Look here," he said suddenly. Let's go to picture show. We can sit there and talk"
 And not in la .preferencia," :" she said, meaning the balcony =. the preference of those who pay an extra sum for the privilege of stumbling up twisting, narrow, dargk stairway to look down upon those in cheaper seats.
 "I suppose downstairs would be safer for yoi,--"
 "Yes, under the balcony"
 He sighed a rowing fotingo and helped her in.
 After they were settled in the theater and the story, with Span- ish and English captions, was moving on. the scren Pabltio felt the pressure of her shoulder against his. He set his teeth, star ing blindly at the row of boxes that were gay with Spanish shawls flung across their ballus- trades. .a@7.s
 Then the world rocked for him. ell felt her hand on his cuff and stealing into his. He turned and saw that she had ben crying.
 Its all right" she whispered with little quiver of a smile. "I can't explain, only when you feel you can't believe something you must believe = and then know that you can, you're so happy it's almost an ache" :.
 He understood her not at all but it did not matter.
 ~You're the finest person J know, Pablito.'
 She felt his sharply indrawn breath and felt her hand pressed against his lips.
 Her heart trembled and seemed to turn within her. She saw the figures on the screen only as misty blotches and moved closed to Pab- lita. With Ter free hand she patted his arm. Hhe dropped her hand then and turned eyes toward her that downed the last of ! her reserves.
 T do - love you" she whis- pered. She. had not known she was to say it.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-04-20

For a short second he put an arm around her slender shoul- ders, pressing her close. She felt his lips against her hair and started at that. We've mustn't" she stammered. People might"
 Its dark and they do anyway sometimes down here" he whispered in turn.
 He kept her hand in his, kiss ing 1t when he dared trust him. self. He was secretly afraid that he might go wholly mad; to stand up, fling wide his arms and smash things: to laugh and cry and kiss her-kiss her!
 "You haven't said you love me-" she whispered shyly.
 He could not. He pressed her hand against his lips until she winced Q little. Then, breathless and without having seen her vince, he said. "Did hurt you, my dearest?"
 Pablito wondered what would happen if all this proved to be a dream. He didn't see how he could gon on now without Estelle beside him always. "Always?" he asked her in roughened updertone.
 "Oh. Pablito, you must know that with me it's for always!" she assured him. He felt her cheek pressed against his shoulder. He sat, blind and trembling. Then he heard her voice again. "Fab- Tito, you're so = wonderful" Some day, he thought, she would raise him from his knees -and let him touch her lips with his. All the hungers he had ever known paled before this hunger.
 She thought, We can meet in the grounds, perhaps, with Carlito watching to see that no one comes near"
 "Pablito, I want to see you alone" she whispered.
 Their parting that day was the sweetest heartbreak either of them had ever known. Estelle rode homeward with closed eyes, still seeing his humble, adoring gaze.

Answer-No. The usual signiti- canoe of such pains is focus of infection in the tonsils, and if the infection is not eradicated the child is likely to develop infectious arth- ritis (inflammatory rheumatism) presently Fortunately, modern medicine offers diathermy, which will extirpate or eradicate the focus of infection without the risk of general anesthesia or hospital ization or the other unpleasant fea- lures of a major operation. Dia- thermy is used successfully for children over years of age. Diff ficult to control a younger child and get the necessary cooperation with the doctor.

Children reading adventure stories almost invariably find the parched and lost hero welcom- ing the cool of the swift tropical evening and getting his bearings by the Southern Cross. But mo- body tells them what the Southern Cross looks like. Here | am, a comparatively well-read and mid dle-aged lady, yet I had to re- vamp my idea of the famous con stellation completely when I saw it leaning lazily on the horizon in a southern land.
 It looks like kite, the four visible stars forming it, being the four ends of a crucifix. If there is star at the intersection I did not see it. tI takes up less room in the sky than our northern Dip per but once identified it is unmis- takable and leaves decided inn pression.

2.-That profound student of women, Dr Olga Knopft, says in her "Art of Being a Woman" "It is women who must change the cultural position which women are given; and it is women who must change the opinion which men have. They cannot do it by claim ing more than their share. They cannot do it by any of the tho1- sands of ways of goi~s on striit. Men are brought up by women and they form their opinion of women's ceive from women in childhood"

 Many housewife has lived to ripe old age without discover ing that you can do more with the crisp radish than serve it raw with the celery and olives as an hors d'oeuvre.
 But now that they come three punches for bargain, how about trying radish sandwiches on your card club; creamed radishes on the family and radishes au gratin on the next guest Papa brings home?
 Contain Minerals
 Minerals and ballast are the radish's contribution to food val ues, but it's chief mission in the raw is to look pretty on the table and tempt the appetite. The small red ones are particularly colorful breakfast radishes they are called for no adequate reason and the French eat them with butter which isn't such a mess as 1t sounds! There is also a long red variety, rather inclined to woodi- ness. a round pithy and long white which can be bite-y on the tongue unless plucked while ex- tremely young and tender. Sandwiches are best made with the white radish although the red may be used. Served with fish salads, these sandwiches add zest to party menu.
 Cut crisp, well-washed radishes in thin slices and arrange them on thin slices of buttered bread. CxHt,f ly To. srr14 x.ytk with another thin slice of buttered bread and serve.
 Creamed radishes done like creamed carrots are both good and pretty, radishes au gratin are even more so. Women in the country who face fresh vegeta- ble shortage in the late spring and early summer will find these sug- gestions worth keeping in mind.
 Radfshes au Gratin
 Three cups round red radishes, 2 tablespoons butter, l tablespoon flour, 3-4 cup milk, IA cup water in which radishes were parboiled, 1-2 teaspoon salt, tablespoons grated cheese, tablespoons but tered bread crumbs.
 Wash radishes carefully and cut off root and stem. Cook in boiling salted water for 15 min- utes. Drain from water. saving 4 tablespoonfuls for sauce. Put radishes into buttered baking dish and cover with sauce made with butter and flour cooked to- gether with milk and radish water added. Sprinkle top with crumbs and grated cheese and put into moderately hot oven for 20 minutes to melt the cheese and brown the top. Serve from bak- ing dish.
