When One Is
Entertained
BY EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: What would
you think of the idea of my wear
ing black tie with an all-white palm
beach suit, to make it formal for Sum-
mer evening parties, at which white
clothes are admitted? This question
came up while was away on my va
cation"
Answer don't know any reason
why you should not wear black tie
with an all-white suit if you choose
to. But this would not make it formal,
even in the most lenient sense of the
word. An all-white suit is merely an
extra" hot-weather suit, which
younger men, especially, wear to all
sorts of parties, particularly at simpler
vacation resorts and in the country.
Dear Mrs. Post: I have become a
very personal friend of both my en-
ployer and his wife and their young
son. perhaps because we are all in the
early 30s. Practically every week end
stay with them in the country. Now
Mrs. Employer is going away for a
month or more. taking their young
son with her, and in their place Mr..
Employers aunt. who is at least so, is
to look after him. Would I be criti-
cized if continued to go home with
him every week END, as l always have.
while Mrs. Employer is away?"
Answer-If Mrs. Employer has sug-
gested that you go to stay with her
husband and his aunt, and he invites
you, don't see how it could cause any
criticism, should you go once-or at
the most twice. But if she has not
said anything to you about hoping
that you will go out for week ends as
usual, don't think it will do to go
at all Tell him, if he invites you as
usual, that when Mrs. Employer told
you she was going to be away, you
made arrangements with a friend or a
relative for the week ends, which you
now can't break.
Dear Mrs. Post: What do you think
of a hostess who, after dinner. sits
knitting all the time she is talking
with her guests?"
Answer-It depends upon the type
of dinner. If it is real dinner party,
she should not knit, but If a few init
mate friends are having dinner with
her. and she knits so easily that she
need pay no attention whatever to her
needles, it is not impolite.

these remain in the luxury class un-
til prouction starts in nearby locali-
ties.
The wise housekeeper realizes that
although various fruits keep coming
into the markets all through the year,
for each kind of fruit there is a peak
of production, when the specimen is
at its best and also at its least eX-
pensive. Bearing this in mind. she
plans to use more of those fruits at
that particular time and maps out her
menus accordingly.
A fruit calendar" would seem to be
be in order at this point to serve as a
guide to those who wish to profit by
this suggestion:
JANUARY.
Rates high for the citrus fruits.
Grapefruit oranges and lemons, as
we'll as lines. are plentiful and at
their best. Tangerines are still good.
though less plentiful than they were
in December.
FEBRUARY.
Still good citrus fruit season, al
though tangerines are getting scarcer
and more expensive. Strawberries ap-
pear. but usually are still in the lux
ury class.
MARCH.
Grapefruit supplies are at their
peak. and oranges are in their next
to-oest month. This means that vita
min won't be too expensive, and
comes just when it is needed-after
q long. cold Winter with presumably
little sunshine. Strawberries come
down bit of their high horse, but
are still prohibitive for the average
buyer.
APRIL.
The first raspberries and cantaloupe
appear-but only as a sight to behold
Tor most people. Pineapples and
rhubarb begin arriving in quantities
large enough to push them of the
luxury shelf.
MAY.
Rhubarb and pineapples reach their
quality and quantity peak for the year,
at the lowest prices. Oranges attain
their years high for supply. and more
strawberries go to market than at any
other time in the year.
JUNE.
Now the fruitstands are crowded
with lemons. lines, bananas and cher
ries. Cantaloupes are we'll on their
way, and getting less expensive all the
time; gooseberries make their first real
appearance. Blackberries and rasp-
berries are plentiful and cheap; rhu-

The Old Gardener Saws

If the garden hose is pulled
around the ground carelessly, be-
ing dragged over brick or stone
walks, it is likely to wear out
much more quickly than if it is
moved about on reel. More
over, the hose will suffer if left
in the sun filled with water, for
this practice hardens the rubber
on the outside and shortens the
life of the hose. Draining the.
hose after using it is always ad-
visable. If kinks appear, they,
should be unwound carefully.
Pulling them tight breaks the fab
ric. Before the hose is put up for
the Winter it should be drained
thoroughly, then made into a coil
3 feet in diameter and hung from
pegs with stout cord in a cool Gel
lar. A device which makes at
taching and disconnecting of the
hose matter of a moment is
proving very convenient.

Juose s44 ny AeA 04e
- Can you tell what is in a
woman's head by the kind Of heels on
her shoes? S. K.
Answer: Perhaps not absolutely.
but you can make a mighty good
guess, because girl expresses herself
more completely by the way she
dresses than in any other manner. A
woman gets her principles in life
from her mother. Her theology from
her preacher. Her politics from her
father. But her clothes are her own
and give you very good line on the
amount of intelligence, Judgment. in
dustry, thrift and energy she pos
sesses.
Certainly if I we're a young man I
should keep a weather eye on the way
a girl was dressed if l contemplated
marrying her. And I wouldn't need
to be a Sherlock Holmes to deduct a
few important points about the kind
of wife she would make.
IF SHE wore spike-heeled shoes
(since you have raised that issue)
to work where she had to stand on
her feet all day, or to climb a noun
tain, as I have seen girl do, or on
hikes, would know that vanity was
her leading characteristic and that
she was willing to suffer any torture
for the sake of her looks. I would
also know that she was impractical
and lacking in a sense of fitness, and
that she would make one Of the wives
who spend all that their husbands
make on keeping up appearances and
who skimp the family to give splurg-
ing entertainments.
I would notice whether a girl
dressed beyond her means. If she
was a poor girl who was always dolled
up like the Queen of Sheba, I should
know that she was clothes-mad and
extravagant and that her husband
would be sold in bondage to speciality
shops and millinery stores.
would observe whether she was
clean and neat or not; whether her
shoes were polished, her stockings on
straight, her neckwear immaculate,
her hair well combed, for thereby I
should know whether her house, when
she married, would be tidy and order
ly, or a place of confusion with un-
swept floors and unmade beds, with
everything at skies and sevenS.
T SHOULD notice whether she was
appropriately dressed or not. If
she always had on the right thing
plain, dark clothes for street and
business wear. pretty chiffons for
evening, I would know that she would
make the kind of wife on whose good
sense and taste her husband could
rely.
I should know that she would do
and say the right thing at the right
time and that she would push his
fortunes. But If girl came down to
work looking as If she was going out
to a cocktail party; II she wore a lace
gown and a picture hat to market and
barged In on a formal party in a
sweater or shorts, ! would know she
lacked Judgment and that she would
waste my money and tell business
secrets, and that would always be
getting her out Of rnesses.
would notice whether girl wore
the colors that flattered her, the lines
that brought out her good points and
camoufiaged the bad ones, whether
she combed her hair the right way or
the wrong way. I would notice
whether. she carried herself so per
cent above her looks or so per cent
under them and that would give me a
mighty good line on how much in
telligence and initiative she had, and
whether she would make the best Of
Whatever opportunities she had In

Answer-The average weight for
your age and height is between 1T
and 127 pounds. Your hips are not
too large for your height. If you
want to keep your figure trim and
slim you must take plenty of active
exercise. Tennis Is favorite sport
among cinema stars who have to
keep their figures in good proportion.
Walking about in a squatting position
Is also good for hips and thighs.

is the cause of your posture problem
and suggest suitable treatment. Cor
rective exercises should be prescribed
individually upon examination. Deep
breathing, voice culture, the playing

inches tall. A years old and weigh
ia pounds. Have gray hair, gray
eyes, medium skin and a rather long
face. How should I wear my hair,
what should I weigh and what colors
in clothes and makeup are suitable
for me? CLEO.
Answer-The average weight for
your age and height is 1873 pounds,
but, since you appear to be of the
naturally thin type. should say that
l28 would be enough. Thin women
show their age in their faces sooner
than fairly plump ones do. You
might try center-part coifure with
a narrow coronet braid. Your hair
may come down in waves about brow
and temples and be fairly fluffy at
the sides. Study your face and fea-
lures from all angles before deciding
on a coiffure. AS to makeup, use
beige or light brunette powder and
medium rouge in lipstick. II you are
sallow you might use pink powder first,
then your beige over that. Avoid a
harsh effect Navy blue is excellent
for YOU. also Copenhagen blue and

Ans: You can't do more to pass
your courses other than what you
have been doing. However, since you
are so interested in your studies, YOU
shouldn't mind depriving yourself of
some Of your recreation, and spend
this time on your school work so as
to make excellent marks like you
did last semester. The falling down
on your grades seems to lie partly
in the fault Of your teacher and It
wouldn't be a bad idea to try to keep
