PARIS STYLES
BY MARY KNIGHT
United Press Stan Correspondent

/. United Press Stan Correspondent
 Paris, (UP)-Artists now have finger in the fashion pie" Marie Laurencin' printed satin bearing rather smart witness to this fact. In pale shades of rose, mauve and blue-so dear to that lady's heart, are the shades used, and the ma terial is preferred for evening rather than daytime ensembles. Under electric or candle light these dull pastels have sort of a dusty look that is considered desirable.
 Nor are we finished with an- gora. Every day in every way it is getting lighter, both in weight and color so that it is thoroughly adapted to the summer as well as the winter mode. But isn't that getting to be true with many ma terials? Stop and think a moment Velvet is now an all-year fabric; so is wool and tweed. Time was when satin, if worn in the summer, stamped you as being either toe poor to put it aside for winter or as ignorant of the etiquette of this particular type of cloth. Now, who can cast the first stone of scorn if we wear net and cheese cloth in mid d-winter and velvet and furs in August? We wear straw hats in December and felts in July
 In order to be in advance of each seasons mode, we have bent back 1 wards so far that we have com pletely reversed our wardrobes ! 1t wouldn't do to stop. however for if we keep on we shall event uaIly get back to wearing winter clothes in winter and summer onc' ] in summer.

What The Doctor Says BY DR. s. J. CRUMBINE, GENERAL EXECUTIVE AMERICAN CHILD HEALTH ASSOCIATION

Doctor" said MT Johnson; "it'll be check on too much joy riding, and we'll all know just how we stand. But what about the other problem? Is it safe to let Bill do much driving alone or with his school friends?"
 "I can't help feeling" 1 replied, "that Bill at seventeen is a safer person to be on the roads than many of the adult drivers you see. A boy who can make drop kick such as I've seen Bill make, has pretty good coordination between his brain and the rest of his body. besides excellent vision and pretty good judgment. And he knows the rules of the road, because I've heard you teaching him last year. It's largely question of good manners-and Bill doesn't lack those = plus experience-and that he's got to learn"
 You're right. Doctor" said MT Johnson, "but how about other dangers-petting parties, and so on. Isn't auto riding supposed to en- courage them?" I couldn't help smiling. "A youngster who wants to, will pet whether he has an automobile or not" said, but thanks to the training you and his mother have given him I don't be- lieve Bill is interested. But you might have a friendly talk with him on the whole subject just tc be sure he understands his re- snonsibilities both as an autO- driver and as man."

around any longer. People are talk
 Her eyes blazed. "Who?"
 "Only tonight a woman said something
 "I thought you were working to- night" she flared at him. She had flung her little velvet wrap aside and stood revealed in all her de- sirability. Her eyes were feverishly bright with excitement and fatigue. The apricot gown brought out every alluring curve of her charm ing figure. Never had Tom seen her lok so utterly adorable and yet as she stood there, defying him, he felt that it was not love he had for her in his heart - but hatred, almost.
 "I was working" he said thickly, angrily. His choler almost chokec him. "Who said I wasn't?"
 Can this be us, quarreling so horribly. cruelty, cheaply? thought Gypsy with despair.
 She made one last desperate effort at sanity.
 "I'm worn out with this dreadful night" she said reasonably. Well talk 1t over in the morning, Tom, if you don't mind. can't think. ." She put her hands to her throbbing temples. The memory of Derek's distraught face was with her.
 He reached out, his fingers grip ping one small wrist with @ grip of iron.
 'We'll talk now and you'll listen" he rasped. "Or I'll walk out of the door this instant and you'll not see me again."

BILL AND THE FAMILY
 AUTOMORIIE

One evening this week I dropped into the club for a game of bridge and found MT Johnson there. While we waited for a chance to cut in we sat by the open fire in the club lounge. He looked rather worried, so, during pause in the conversation I asked him what was the matter.
 "Nothing much. doctor," he re- piled, Bill and I had set-to this afternoon over the car, and the more think of it the more I fore see trouble during the coming sum- mcr." ."What's Bill been up to now" I asked. "He wanted the car to take some of his school friends for a joy:-ride," replied MT Johnson, "and his mother wanted 1t for shopping-so of course l stood up for his mother and told b"And what did Bill say to that?" I asked. "He flew into a rage boy-like-and declared that he never got a chance to use the bus I almost wish I'd never let him get his drivers license last fall" And MT Johnson sighed again. That wouldn't have stopped him from driving" I remarked, you can't expect seventeen year old boy not to try his hand at the wheel these days-and anyway, you taught him yourself, you know " Mir Johnson nodded "I want him to know how to drive" he said, flor his own pleasure and for the con venience of us all. I think every body who has enough sense ought | to learn to drive-and to drive properly. What I don't like is his | feeling that he anG his friends have a right to the car no matter who else has to go without. And, you know, Doctor, for all his size Bill s only youngster, and don't real ly like his taking the car out alone flor his own sake, I mean"
 Its quite a problem" I agreed, 'in fact. two problems. But l don't think either is as serious as you think-at least not if l know Bill" What do you mean. Doc tor?" asked MT Johnson. We'll l said, take one problem first
 Now that the fine weather is be- ginning you and Mrs Johnson and Bill will all be wanting the car. Sometimes two of you may want it at the same time--and then I'd suggest a friendly discussion as to
 whose errand was the most import
 ant. Turn and turn about, you know. You're all three reason peo- pie, and you oughtn't to find 1t hard to come to an agreement. By the
 way, is Bill to pay his share of
 the running expenses?" Well" re-
 piled his father. Hast fall l let him
 use the car at odd times in return
 for keeping 1t clean, but this year
 he might pay for his own gas---
 that is if he's going to use much '
 "I think 1t would be good idea,
 said, "to keep a family accoun
 book: each one who takes the. car t,ut puts down the amount of gas
 used. the mileage and any items oi
 expenditure. Then, at the end oi lthe month. 1t coul1 be divided UT lin urnpnrfirn." That's good idea

The Old HoI<um Bunkem Is
 Still Taught In School
 From village comes the naive query:
 We have had an argument
 in our high school physiology
 class as to whether or not we
 breathe through our skin. our
 instructor says we do. Will you
 please settle this question for
 us?
 No child, you don't.
 It would be a great thing for the welfare of the race if human phy- 'siology were introduced into the schools. But I doubt if it will ever be admitted into the grammar school or high school curriculum.
 The instructor of the physiology class in this instance must have found the idea in an almanac. Surely it was never taught In an educational institution. nor pub lished in text book of physiology.
 It is a crime to waste the public funds and the time of school chill dren with such instruction or study. People pick up enough, mis- information from the quack doc- tor literature and nostrum pro- motion stuff, without having an official instructor appointed by the school board to clinch it in their minds.
 The question of the ability of. the skin to absorb things is still con troversial-at least there are still g. few medical men who seem to believe it can happen. But there Is no question whatever concern ing the function of the skin as respiratory organ; 1t has none.
 Even the absorption of poisin or food or chemical or medicine through the skin has not yet been proved scientifically. Most physi- clans have long since ceased to imagine that any medicament ap- piled to the unbroken skin is ab- sorbed through the skin. Most phy- sicians know that any such med icament that is absorbed IS ab- sorbed through inhalation of the yapor or the volatilized substance.
 Now and then some muddlehead- ed doctor expresses his belief that some such poison has been ab- sorbed through the skin-especial- ly in case, of shoe dye poisoning. I should like nothing better than to submit my own skin to any scientifically controlled test of this question, with shoe dye or any other poison or substance. and abide by the results of the test. But no fear that any one of stand ing on the other side will agree | to such test.
 No, daughter, the skin does not breathe. Nor does it ever absorb anything, unless it is scratched or punctured or abraded so that raw flesh is exposed. Nor is anything

STYLE CHATS
WITH ALMA ARCHER

The business girl has beauty problems that the woman of leis- ure never has to meet. When good grooming is urged upon her she Is likely to say, "Yes, but I go to work in the rain many mornings and arrive at the office with gloves and stockings covered with mud and water stains. What if l did wash everything out last night? No one ever would know it!" It's a handicap but little ingenuity and foresight will overcome it.
 Keep extra pairs of clean gloves, hose and one or two fresh handkerchiefs in the desk drawer. along with cleansing lotion, foun- dation cream. cotton pads and a bit of powder and rouge. A clothes brush and a brush for suede shoes are other conveniences to add to the freshening-up list.
 When 1t comes to white collars and cuffs, the problem is harder. Certainly it would seem little inconvenient to keep an entire wardrobe at the office in order to appear always perfectly groomed. However, there's nothing to pre- vent carrying these accessories in a paper bag and pinning them on after arrival.

Gypsy's half hysterical laugh which ended in 8 sob. She said some- thing unintelligible to her. escort.
 Lord, you'd think the fool would have sense enough to go home now," Tom thought grimly. He went out into the hall, caught at a disadvantage after his sojourn in the dark. Blinking like an owl, he thought. Gypsy said. "Oh, dar- ling!" in what he considered al- most an indecently emotional voice but he did not respond; he felt himself aloof. He saw the fellow looking at him oddly and he nod ded, feeling like wooden man, stiff and inhuman.
 She's had a shock" he heard the other man say.
 The muscles of Toms mouth stretched themselves in what he hoped was a sarcastic smile. "Oh, has she?" he asked. What was this all about and why didn't the chap go off and leave them?
 The story tumbled out. Gypsy told most of it, tearing at her thin handkerchief. Tom got grimmer and grimmer as it progressed. So this was the sort of mess they'd got themselves into, was it?
 Tt will look fine in the papers tomorrow, won't it?" he asked coldly. Gypsys eyes flew to his face. Why was he taking 1t this way-he could see her asking her. self the question.
 He lighted a cigaret with fingers that shook little.
 "You shouldn't have gone in the first place." he said uglily. You know I've been against that con- belong in that crowd. You knew "Yes, but Tom ."
 He couldn't stop himself. He hated himself for going on like this but some inner force drove him.
 That woman is rotten clear through" he stated clearly. "Of course, if you want to tic yourself up with people like that it's none | of my business"
 Hunt interrupted. Look here, Weaver, you mustn't talk to her that way"
 He glared. "Oh, mustn't I?" No. None of this is any fault of hers. A man comes to 0 party drunk. He makes & scene-he has fall. l fail to see how Gypsy is 1 to blame"
 Perhaps" said Tom in a tone icy with despair. "Stop it. You're both being ridiculous. Tomorrow we'll all laugh at this. We're strung up now. We're not normal" She held out her hand to Hunt. Good night. and thanks for seeing me drought it."
 T hate to :" He took her hand reluctantly, glanced at Tom with irony. Sorry, old man." | Tom barely nodded. His attitude was that of a host unable to wait until the unwelcome guest has bowed himself out. When the door had closed after him Gypsy said, very low, "Oh. why did you behave like that? So unnecessary ."
 This, he felt, was the last straw. His own wife defending the other fellow, upbraiding him.
 "So that's the way it is! You'll take his part against me. He's a fatuous ass and 1 can't stand him

Sister Ma,y,s
 Kitchen
By SISTER MARY

(NEA Service Stam WElterJ
 Just at this season of the year when most of us must rely on shipped and canned goods. sea soning and "fiavoring' is a fine art: The clever cook will never add enough seasoning of any sort to let that taste stand out to the ex- clusion of all other flavors. She will work to bring out the natural flavor of the food and give 1t that intriguing fresh from the garden taste.
 Salt, sugar. spices and fruit juices are at the hand or every cook and do much to give point to other flavors.
 few grains of salt should be included in every dish prepared. Fruit cups, salads, desserts, even coffee and every bit of food that is served will be improved by touch of salt.
 And by the same token sugar IS added to many vegetable and meat dishes to bring out the flavor. A few grains of sugar included in the seasoning of meats develops rich ness and tastiness.
 Acids Fruit Flavor '
 Lemon and orange juice come next in importance. Extra sugar with the few grains of salt added with lemon juice to any fruit con. coction improves the flavor ana II fruit has lost it's first freshness the judicious use of lemon juice does much to restore it. For a most common example, try adding one tablespoon lemon juice to the next t. Io m rtinIIIlrIv If the apples have become bit wilty and tasteless. No matter whether a sweet or tart fruit mixture is wanted a dash of lemon juice will bring out the fiavors and aid in blending 8 com bination into smooth and delect- able whole.
 Some tart fruits are made ynoro bland by the use of orange juice. Strawberries that are used in any | fashion save "au naturelle" are vastly improved if a few table spoonsful of orange juice are add ed with the sugar.
 Spices also can be used to de- velop flavor.
 Nutmeg, ginger and cinnamon are the most commonly used. l.Sprinkle oysters ever so lightly with nutmeg the next time you
 make Q stew or cook them in any way.
 The flavor of spinach is accentu- ated by dash of nutmeg with the i lemon juice.
 Add nutmeg to the seasonings l for veal outlets or roast. Add 0 sprinkle of nutmeg with vanilla in cake, cookies, sauces or icings or custards to obtain deli | cate yet definite vanilla flavor. Cinnamon with vanilla develops l chocolate flavor whenever this is
 used in cakes, puddings or beveI ages.

Jimmy wants to take out his sled but his mother, thinking the snow's too thin, gets the kiddy-car. Jimmy '' He HHu u stamps and says. "No. I want my sled"
 sled. see." She holds back the curtain. "Come and look. There is hardly any snow"
 "The other children have no sIeds. oh, come on, look at the doggie on your kiddy-car. He wants a ride"
 'sNo-I-want--m
 "All right. ,Take your sled, you unreasonable little boy. III put your car back in the closet. There. Got hold of the rope? Now run along"
 Jimmy hangs back.
 Now what is the matter? Why don't you go?"
 q don't want my sled"
 "What! Why you just asked me to go out"
 T want my kiddy car"
 "Well you can't have it. You're just too naughty for anything. Go on now" Pushes him out and shuts the door.
 A Battle Won
 He sits down on the steps and howls. The children gather around. whats wrong, Jimmy"
 q want my kiddy-car and Mama won't let nae have it."
 "She must be crazy says Rog- CT. "There ain't hardly any snow. You can't use your sled"
 The door opens suddenly. the "crazy" one thrusts out the kiddy- car, hauls in the sled, and slams the door.
 Gee, she's mad" giggles Rog- CT. Everybody stares at Jimmy. They're sure he will cry. It's ter rible when a mama gets mad.
 But Jimmy has a peculiar and self satisfied look. He scrambles down off the steps and trundles away. He has won again. He is four years old. The age when "the little baby who was always so sweet before" becomes so sudden ly such q naughty, naughty little boy. The age when twill" devel- ops by setting itself up against other wills to pit its own strength and conquer if it can. The "self" impulse sending out experimental feelers and finding gratification.
 What is she going to do about it? This is getting to be a rather regular thing. She can't give in always, and even if she does, he gets as contrary as mule. He doesn't seem to have any reason at all.
 will Before Reason
 It isn't the age of reason-not four years. What we call reason or judgment, takes its time about putting in an appearance. Nature is clever. She knows that she must develop will first or it may never have chance once reason gets in it's work. Later reason will tone the will down to certain extent.
 If mother realizes the forces at work she will try to keep personal indignation out of it, and cheer fully regard her son as small boy finding himself. She will learn not to make an issue of too many things and to settle as many diffi- culties as possible without words. She won't argue. He may have his own way often but of course not always. If she is clever she can reach him by the quick substitu. ton of another impulse. the play impulse for instance. If she can turn his anger to a laugh or a sud- den swift interest in another mat ter the incident will take care of itself.
 At this stage a mother needs all her rcsourcefulness and patience.
