PARIS STYLES BY MARY KNIGHT

Paris (UP)-Picture hats are in cocted one for sprinC that, on her. self anyway, makes such picture as gives you the urge to copy right away. Hers is in shiny black straw trimmed with pink and green flow
 CTS and a band of pink organdie and greeh organdie wrapped around the very shallow crown. Just over the right eye, the wide brim is given a box pleat that is very, as the French say, piquant. The brim is wider at the hides than the back or front. which makes 1t much more wearable and gives the fore head slight exposure that the big hats of other days failed to do.
 The other extreme in forthcom- ing hats for spring and summer is admirably hinted at by Marcelle RoZe who has made an advance model for Mile. Lily Dorelle, the popular movie star here. It is of black taffeta stitched with black in diagonal lines. The material is gathered across the back of the head into little cluster at the nape of the neck. fastened in place and the ballet skirt effect giving a new line as it flares out for couple of inches. A fold of the taffeta turns back off the face and tapers near the ears. On the whole 1t is much like a baby bon net and is particularly youthful. A stitched taffeta collar and cuff set is charming adjunct and these are considered in a new groupment of accessories. A taeffta purse and gloves may be added.

STYLE CHATS WITH ALMA ARCHER

There probably never has been more of an opportunity for clothes stealing a show than in the Otto Harbach Roberta. Yet, Fay Templeton as Aunt Minnie the modiste, and two songs do all the stealing. Unless, of course, you happen to go on day when one of the hidebound frocks rips without even warning to the actress. Never does an audience have such good full-fledged mysteries, and feel that it certainly has had its moneys worth, until one of the dresses inadvertently rips in some embarrassing locale. At one matinee, jut as the cus- toners were being lulled into A charming slumber with Tam aras singing of Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" dress that wasn't supposed to rip went wide open down the pine and points south. These hidebound ideas can't take 1t, and dressmakers should learn. A girl loses confidence when her clothes tear-like the American hash, "you've gotta have confi- dence to eat it."

concerned. Gypsy had been ab- surd from the first in her atti- tude toward the latter. Why. she was just an open-hearted, gener- ous, impulsive girl. Perhaps she was bit unconventional, but that was nothing unusual. Gypsy's very insistence on Veras siren qualities rather piqued his curi- osity. Maybe she was still emo tionally interested in him, al- though he didn't believe it. Well, what was the difference? He was married; that was that.
 They went back to the house and nothing was settled. The angry words, the accusations, the atmosphere of unease went with them. David was rosy, adorable, after his nap. Tom played with him and found the warm, small burden in his arms oddly com forting. This was his son; he still marveled at the wonder of that. And across the room, in her soft red wool dress, with her curls tumbling about her head, was the girl who was his wife. He loved her but there was no peace between them these days; enly pickering and looks of sus- picion and something very close to enmity.

 Neither would meet the others eye. This was dreadful - it was worse than anything they'd beeD through yet. To listen to that fond. kindly man and feel in their hearts such burning, bitter dlsco1tent-it was difficult to bear. Well, I'm turning in.

sCHOOLBETLE sTOMACHACHE

SCHOOLBEILE STOMACHACHE
 Every real boy or girl is entitled to the privilege of an occasional
 attack of 8 o'clock fever in an I month. Parents who are reason ably indulgent should not be too
 much concerned about these spells.
 With all the modern improvements and Inducements school sometimes | pals on the modern child just as | the plain old fashioned institution did on you and me.
 Here is mother-I suspect q one-child mother - who takes schoolbell stomachache too seri- | ously.
 'I have been sending my five year old daughter to kindergarten for month. After a few days of school she began to act strangely in the mornings. She doesn't want to get out of bed. She walks around with a frown on her face. She complains of bellyaches (whether she really has them, l don't know). She gets vomiting spells, even though she wouldn't eat or drink anything at all for breakfast. She vomits many times just as she enters the school grounds. But once she gets into school, she plays happily and en- loys herself thoroughly. She never mentions that she doesn't want to go to school. All this happens only on school days. Saturdays and Sundays she jumps out of bed. eats big breakfast and feels fine. Her actions in the morning worry me much. She is losing weight. Please advise me what to do."
 One good way to remedy the trouble would be to keep the child out of school and instead employ a well trained teacher, one especial ly trained to teach and manage in- fants, to spend an hour with the child each schoolday. Such d teacher can accomplish wonders with such a child, and in a way that is so unlike the child's con- ception of kindergarten or school that 1t will bring out (educate) the child's natural enthusiasm to learn.
 Another way would be to en- deavor to get on friendly terms with one or more of the teachers in the kindergarten, say by having them as guests from time to time when the child can get acquainted with them. Also if possible have some of the other children in the kindergarten come to little parties so that the child can get well ac- quainted with them.
 Finally, it is possible that there is something wrong with the kim dergarten or the attitude of those in charge or the attitude of other children, some influence which would justify withdrawing your child and sending her to some other school. But it would be d mistake to take such a step unless you know definitely that the change is necessary. More likely the child herself is not yet sufficiently trained to get along with other children, as she must learn to do if she is not to become a neurotic.
 If you can afford the advice of physician who limits his practice to mental states, @ psychiatrist. that would be the most satisfactory way to deal with the problem. l sug- gest this only because you say the child is losing weight. For that reason you must be sure to do the right thing.

WHAT IS GOOD NUTRITION?


 MT Johnson and I went over to the park last Saturday afternoon to watch the children skate. Conse- quently we were quite ready for Mrs Johnson's excellent supper when we got home. As we were all doing justice to it Mrs Johnson suddenly remarked, Well, I don't see any evidence of malnutrition here!" The rest of us looked at her in surprise. "Yes," she continued, I've been listening to a radio talk this afternoon, and the doctor who gave it told all about the signs of malnutrition and what caused it." What caused it!" exclaimed Bill; that's easy. Lack of food!" Not only that" said his mother; you can have plenty of food and still be malnourished, cant you, Doc tor?" "Indeed you can," l agreed; "but I'm interested in what this radio speaker said. Can you re- member some of the points he made?" "Let me see," said Mrs Johnson; The said that malnutri- tion could be caused by the lack of special types of food, such as milk, butter, citrus fruits and" She hesitated. Vegetables, surely added. "Yes," she replied, "vege- tables, of course. And I'm sure he said that eating too fast and ir- regular meals made difference. Could that be true?" Yes it could and they do." I replied: "eating too fast, or irregularity in meals makes 1t harder to digest even the most nourishing of foods. So does lack of sleep, and worry or over work" Poor Bill" put in Mary; ''n wonder he looks so pale and starved!' "Mother. may l borrow the rouge you took away from a certain little girl?" asked Bill, in scathing tones. When Bill and Mary get started there's no stop ping them, so MT Johnson told them both to be quiet and let their mother finish.
 "Paleness and thinness don't necessarily mean malnourishment either," went on Mrs Johnson, "do they. Doctor?" "No,' said, "though an unhealthy pallor and extreme thinness often point to it" That's what this man said," she continued; "and he said that dark circles under the eyes and failure to gain weisht--and--. oh yes, q worried expression, often were signs of malnutrltion." "He evi- dentiy knew what he was talking about" said; 'Dld he say that only . physician could judge whe- ther or not child was malnour- lshed?' "He did," replied Mrs Johnson, "and he spoke of various tests that are being used now in' stead of tho height-weight-age tables" "Yes," said. Two heard of them, and I'm very glad thai such tests are being developed. Tho
 height. tables are too general tO so applied tO individual children. [ mean they only give average weight for height and age. and make no allowance for lHdi- vldual differences ln build. They're

only 8 very rough index of nutri- tion."
 "IndeX"' broke in Mrs Johnson, that's what this man called the new method of measuring. He said you judged by the amount of mus cle and fat on a child's bones you know-whether it was enough. I'm going to send for a copy of the talk and find out just what he did say"
 Mrs Johnson is wise. There is a great deal of talk about malnutri- tion these days. and naturally every mother wants to be sure that her children are being properly hourished. The family physician is the one to consult, for there is plenty of unsound, free health ad- vice for the gullible. But health ex- perts have learned much from the recent economic crisis, and with the advice of the family physician, parents can make good use of their findings.

Feet have definite relation to health and beauty. They should be given as good care as your hands, arms, face or any other part of your body.
