channel In coats and get out at
good passes which In the past
could not be reached. Ducks came
In recently ahead Of the cold
wave. and hunting may be fair.
Wild turkey hunting, which OPP
ened along with deer, appeals
to few. as the turkeys are not
numerous, and the hunters who
have the skill and patience to bag
them are considerably fewer.
For q number OF reasons the
1866 fall and winter season
promises better hunting than for

And the duck, deer, goose. and
quail hunting comes after one Of
the best whitening seasons In

Charming
BY BARBARA BELL.

oI nAnDAhh DELLs
TT IS often difficult to find party
frock for the young girl which
conforms to her idea of what is
l. suitable for her years and dignity,
and one that is acceptable to mother
as being In good taste for the fledgling.
Little girls grow up so quickly, first
thing you know they are demanding
all sorts Of sophistication in clothes,
it's really a task to keep her well
dressed and satisfied. Lessons in good
taste cannot begin too early, and the
frock In the illustration will please
both mother and daughter.
The blouse is gathered on a shallow
round yoke, both in front and back,
and the yoke becomes faring little
caps over the sleeves. In Summer the
sleeves may be omitted, but for dane
ing class and matinees and little par
ties their short puffs are very good.
The skirt Is simple, but becomingiy
wide, and there may be little belt
of the same material used for the
dress, or a ribbon sash and bow.
DRESS WITH WIDE BERTHA.
A FRILL about the neck is about
= the most becoming bit Of adorn-
ment for the young miss. And she
should wear it, for all too soon the
time comes when, on account Of the
ravages Of years, 1t simply won't do
at all. Sometimes the frill is pleated,
sometimes wide circular bertha, fit-
ting close around the base Of the
round little throat. as In the Illus
tration.

RY ELSIE PIERCE.


II EEPING young scalps in pink OF
~ perfection is o mans size job
Daddies ought to be made to do It
But 1t falls to the lot of mothers who
have their hands full as it is.
During the Summer children are
encouraged to play outdoors as much
as possible. Those who live at the
seashore have grand time making
mud pies at the beach, but how the
sand does get into the hair! And II
1t isn't brushed out thoroughly II
lodges in the pores. irritates the scalp
The sun also adds its bit Of damage
All of which means that at this
time Of the year, between winding up
the Summer and preparing for the
school season, mother, as we've al
ready noted, has her hands mighty
full.
Brush Daily-Shampoo Weekly.
One mistake that many mothers
make Is that Of washing the hair to
death! That extracts every bit Of the
natural oil from the young scalp
makes the hair distressingly dry. 1t is
better to brush twice daily and to
shampoo about once a week. Use q
supple, long -bristled brush for your
child's hair; the same upward and
outward movement that you use on
your own head (hoping you brush your
own religiously, too. There's q spe-
cial brush for children on the market
q Junior of q nationally famous type
with long, uneven-cut bristles and
wide spacing for stranding the hair as
it brushes. The bristles- penetrate to
the scalp, stimulating the circulation
cleansing and polishing the hair.
The young miss Of school age will
love doing her own hair-brushing
Make q game of it at first, doing 10
strokes for her and letting her try 10
Tell her why she should brush and let
her see you brush your own hair. Ex-
plain that brushing makes the hair
shine and grow, makes the scalp
healthy. Tell her that brushing up
and out won't destroy her wave.
And speaking of her wave reminds
me. The vogue started by that ador-
able curly-topped young screen star has
swept the country by storm. Young
locks are longer, but are piled high
in curls, strung through with ribbon
bands. More mothers are treating
their youngsters to end curl perma-
nents. Permanents, by the way, are
less harmful than they were yester-
year. And brushing and proper care
keeps the hair from getting dry and
brittle. All in all, every ones happy
It's hard to say who enjoys 1t more,
mother or daughter.
When combing the hair be sure to
use the best comb with rounded teeth,
not a sharp toothed comb. Also use an
antiseptic tonic for the child's hair
occasionally to keep the scalp safe
from the multitude Of germs encoun-
tered everywhere. And when you do
shampoo, be sure to use only a pure
olive CASTLE soap, preferably in liquid
form.
Evening star., 1935-08-28

The circular cap sleeves under the
bertha give an adorable winglike
effect to the simple waist, which is
bloused softly. The skirt is shirred
at the sides, shirring being an i'm
portant detail of children's clothes this
season. Moreover, the shirring gives
the skirt the wide effect that Is 90
much liked. This frock has a wide
sash. Lovely ribbons have returned
to the mode, worn by girls as well as
their mamas.
Some mothers always like to have
their children dressed in the lawns
and dimities and swisses. However,
the better shops show silks.
Barbara Bell Pattern No. 1597-B
and No. 1575-B are sized from 8 to

of 39-inch material.

Push Them

JOHNNY. you can't sit that way.
Sit up. Put your feet on the

We'll, uncle does 1t, doesn't he7"
your uncle is an old gentleman.
When you are an old gentleman you
can sit as you please. Nobody will
bother"
Huh? If other people can sit that
way should think could"
you can't. Now don't let me hear
any more about it. Have you brought

mo. Do have to bring it IMP"
Certainly. You took it out, didn't
you?"
"Yes, but sis didn't bring hers in. If
she brings hers in I'll bring mine"
What Is the matter with you? Go
bring In that chair and don't say an
other word about who does what. Not
another world"
That's always the way. Sis can say
whatever she likes and do whatever
she likes. But If say one little thing
everybody jumps on me. All right.
You'll see. II I don't get my rights
same as everybody else-youM see."
There is nothing more provoking in
this world than a 12-year-old boy un-
less it is a 13-year-old girl. In some
ways they are as grown-up as ever
they can be. but in others they seem to
be more childish than ever they could
have been. Especially do they harp
on. "He does it. Why can't ~"
It is useless to tell them that grandpa
is old, that auntie is tired, that sis is
girl and needs help. that they are
young yet and need to be trained and
taught. All they know Is that they are
suffering the injustice Of a brutal fam
lily that Is united against them. The
only thing to do is to push them along
and say as little as possible.
If would make life easier for fathers
and mothers II others kept the rules
bit better. When big brother comes
home from work why can't he go along
to his room, put away his things, in
stead Of tossing his paper one way, his
hat another and his coat another for
some one else to gather up?
When Sis gets through in the bath
room why can't she put it in spic-and-
span order as she found it instead of
tossing her towels into the tub, leaving
splaShes all over the basin, powder and
rouge here, there and everywhere so
that the next person coming into the
room is moved to wrath and loud pro-
test?
Is there any reason why grown-upS
cannot watch their manners, their
speech, their general attitudes before
children and set them a decent ex-
ample? Some such responsibility is
certainly theirs. Then mother would
not be compelled to hear so often, "He
does 1t. Why can't ~"
