"A IL sorts of children go in and out
IA of my office. When see one that
stands on his own feet 1 am thrilled.
But when I see one who is always
waiting to be told what to do and
where to go l know that something
has gone wrong, and am sad. Some
body is to blame and it's not the child.
The mother who says. Il can do
this so much better. why bother the
poor child?' is not playing fair. The
child needs to wash those dishes; he
needs to find out when they are clean
and where they are to be put. He
needs that trip to the grocers so that
he may learn by his own experience
how the job should be done. Success
depends upon the way he learns to
help himself. His very happiness is
tied up to that idea. Intelligence does
not come to him, because his mother.
or his father. or his teacher does the
Job. He has to exercise his own in
telligence if he is to have any. When
he does he is going places and getting
there.
Wendell is the kind of boy like.
He knows what he wants, knows what
he is sent for and comes back with
st. He has been properly trained
But the science teacher didn't know
about it. One day I saw her wearily
adjusting her hat and reaching for
her hand bag. Every movement sug-
sgested she was going to do something
she didn't want to do.
,, Where are you going" asked,
'and why do you feel so downhearted
about it?'
Il have to go to the junk shop for
some odds and ends. wires and bells
and jars and such things Id rather

am always tired when I have to go to
that shop. The old man is so cranky.
bargain and bargain and when I
come away I know inside me that he
has gotten the better of me, and I'm
sick all over"
= Doesn't Wendell go by that shop on
his way home?"
Yes but he's such little thing and
50 polite. Id be afraid the old man
would scare him out of a years
growth"
Try him. Give him the money and
see what happens"
Next day Wendell came back loaded
with copper wire. sheet metal, door
bells, jars - twice as much as the
teacher had expected, and at half the
price.
How did you manage? This is won-
tierful'
= Well" said he, 'if he doesn't do
fright by me I go somewhere else. I
know him. You have to watch your
step and know the prices. He never
tries any of his funny business on me-"
. Teach a child to rely upon himself
Even when he is doing a Job for
somebody else, what he does is a re-
Election Of himself. A child should
learn TO meet the daily experiences

Nothing else will do. He must learn to
do his job so well that something in
side him will shout, Il did it." and
then he will feel like a giant instead

Velvet Type
Influential
In Makeup
Takes Darker Blends
of Powder to Give
Atmosphere.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.
>OU can't think of the Renaissance

You can't think of the Renaissance
influence on modern fashions
without realizing the influence that
velvet has. 1t is part and parcel Of
the most glorious fashions of today.
just as it was in the wealthiest era
of Italy. But the velvet influence
doesn't end with the gown. 1t en-
braces beauty as well as fashion.
The skin men talk about and women
secretly envy is like velvet. The
hands that are pleasure to hold are
velvety soft.
And now the velvet influence is
carried on to our makeup. Rouges
in the same luscious shades as the
robes and gowns of the Renaissance.
Rouges that look like velvet in their
cases. Rouges that go on like so
much velvet. Eyeshadows with the
same magic influence. They give a
suffused, soft look to the lids, yet do
glamorcus things for the eyes. Lip
sticks in shades that are clear and
give the lips a dewy, transparent look.
The orange and nasturtium and
carrot shades so popular this past
Summer are gone. Only the peren-
nially suntanned are the only ones
who wear them (and there are few
who remain dusky the year through.
The fastidious have long since given
their skins the seasonal bleaching
treatments, turned the tan to gardenia
whiteness and are now going in for
the velvet influence in makeup
The bluer red rouges are the vogue.
Not blue exactly purplish reds.
rich wine shades. Variations so fine
that you have to look twice to see
the difference between two shades,
yet there they are, graduated from a
pink wine to a purple wine; but soft,
luscious shades every one of them.
Remember how your eyes used to
blink at the awe-inspiring sight of
shop window filled with toys and
tinsel at Christmas time? Well, these
knowing eyes blinked in much the
same way at window display in one
OF the leading New York shops not
long ago. The influence of velvet was
there. Velvet gowns. glorious in wine
color. with gold jewels as their acces-
sories. And makeup in jewelers. gold
cases with rouges in the same lush
shades as the gowns. So perfect was
the velvet touch that We could have
sworn at first glance. anyway that
circles Of the dress velvet had been
put in the little compact cases. But
We blinked and looked again and knew
it really was rouge. It's the grandest
makeup note We have had in wears
and with it come darker blends Of
powder to give an Elusive altogether
glamorous effect.

A FTER a strenuous day how do
your eyes feel and look? When
you are tired isn't it the eyes that
tell the story first, and likewise when
you are at your best aren't the eyes
clear, fresh and sparkling?
In order to keep them beautiful
through the years a noted beauty
specialist has created a simple treat
ment which is based on three simple
rules: Cleansing the eyes, nourishing
them and firming the delicate sur
rounding tissues. This specialist real
lied that the eyes-the most expressive
and magnetic of the features-Were
the first to give warning that beauty
was on the wane. Subjected to the
demands of modern life, irritated by
sun, wind and dust, strained by bril-
liant lights, the eyes are all too often
neglected, and so she set to work to
provide an easy and soothing method
of caring for them each night.
The complete treatment is contained
in The lovely little kit as shown in
the sketch above in FURNISHED silver
and cobalt blue, the containers echo
ing the same motif with cobalt blue
glass and bright silver tops.
First cleanse the eyes by bathing
them in the special eye lotion, using
either an eye dropper or eye cup.

tfley nave not enough money WIN
which to set up home.
All of us know fine young boys and
girls who are desperately in love with
each other. who are literally lovesick
for each other and whose happiness
whose health and whose morale are
being undermined by a long engage
ment to which even youthful optimism
can see no end. They hope against
hope that times will improve, that the
young man will get better job, that
some miracle will happen that will
enable them to marry, and in the
meantime they eat their hearts out
in bitterness and longing.
NO OTHER one thing is so illogical
and incomprehensible as the at
titude of American fathers and moth
ers toward their children's marriages.
They believe in marriage. They want
their children to marry. They look
forward to their children's marriages.
Yet not one American father and
mother in hundred make any pro-
visions for their children's marriages
or do anything to make it possible
for them to marry under conditions
that will help to make their marriages
successes.
American parents are overindulgent
to their children so long as they stay
at home. They lavish upon them fine
clothes and sport cars. but they do
not put aside for a girl any dowry
that will help her finance her mar
riage to the worthy young man she
loves who is just beginning to climb
the ladder and who cannot take upon
his back a wife who will be a burden
to him.
Many an American girl goes to her
husband without a penny in her
pocket. Her whole assets consist OF
nothing but a costly trousseau of use
less f1nery that she would gladly trade
off for a $1O-a-month allowance from
Papa.
NOR do many parents consider 1t
any part of their obligation to
help their sons through those first
trying years of marriage when the
young husband is finding out to his
dismay what an expensive luxury a
wife is, and how short way the salary
that was big enough for one goes when
you have to stretch it over two or
three or more. Thousands upon
thousands of divorces would be pre-
vented If only parents felt that when
they cultivated crepe de chine tastes
in girl they should supply it and
not expect the poor young man she
married to do it, and If they would
sweeten the matrimonial cup that
their sons are beginning to get dis
taste for by dropping a little sugar
in 1t.
The argument then is that parents,
knowing that their children will some
day want to marry, should save up
something to finance that, just as they
put aside money to send them to col
lege. and that after they are married
