WORKERS
SHUN A. FL.

DETROIT, April 26 U.N.SO.
Sixty-eight per cent Of the 1884,
$50 automobile workers who voted
in collective bargaining elections
held in So automobile plants by
the Presidents Auto Labor Board,
listed themselves as unaffiliated
with any union, the labor board
announced here.
Other percentages we're:
Employees associations, 1873 per
cent.
American Federation Of Labor.
8.6 per cent.
The balance of the votes were
divided among the Mechanics
Educational Society and ten
smaller unions.
About IS per cent of the eligible
voters cast their ballots. The
elections were for the primary
purpose of choosing collective bar
gaining committees on which the
various unions should have repre-
sentation in proportion to their
numerical strength.
Against the claim of William
Green, A. F. L. president, that the
union had 10000 paid-up members
in the motor plants. the A. F. l..
votes cast in the elections num-
bered only 14,057.
Officials of the federation point
out, however, that the A. F. L. re.
pudiated the automobile labor
board and ordered its members
not to take part in the elections
They conclude from this that
many of the unaffiliated votes and
many of those not voting were
A. F. L. members.

Irene Dunno, one of the
most genuine personalities in
Hollywood, has a very indi-
vidual charm. When you Wis
it with Miss Dunno, you can
say:
"Ah, here is a very real
person, a woman who has an
innate understanding of
life"
Perhaps you, too, have per
ceived that as you watched her
on the screen, portraying roles
that have made you leave the
theater believing the world to
be a better place than you
thought.
To me, Irene Dunno epito-
mlzes, through her outward
charm, at least, what many
American women should strive
to become-a woman with
poise, feminine intuitiveness, a
quiet compelling personality, a
rare, alert sense of humor and
a beauty that is obviously not
artificial. She has studied
herself in relation to other per-

Is it proper to wear a hat

ton. But most men wear dark
business suits.
Yes. Leave your wrap in the
coat room, but wear your hat
and gloves when you eat refresh
ments.
If the invitation is a formal
engraved one, your answer to it
should be written formally, that
is, in the third person.
1t is not necessary to repeat
the hour of the invitation when
we are writing a regret.

The morale of the religious
their trained faith in the future,
provided they do their best from
day to day-is the right and
normal attitude for parents to
take toward their baby.
To look at a helpless, tiny
child, yet to keep before your
eyes, as mother and father, the
vision of the future you want it
to attain-What is that but to
practice st. Pauls fine and
famous definition of faith, "the
substance of things hoped for,

Good principles, a sense of re-
sponsibility, domestic loyalty,
serenity, tenderness, courage, op-

into the warp and woof of the

Woolen suits and ensemble, too,
which are not only becoming
to more mature women but are
extremely practical.
AS to the styles themselves,
stores are already full of red
ingotes and "mock redingotes"
dresses with the skirt slit, a
print showing through, and the
print used to trim the top of
the dress. There are also nu-
merous jacket frocks, and
dresses with adjustable bib ef-
fects that make the waistline
low or high, and consequently
becoming to all figures. Prints
trim plain fabrics in so many
ways that it is impossible to

are designed to flatter and to

Responsibility

Doubtless in religious homes
such disturbances, and the
angry moods back of them, are
not unknown. But at least they
represent divergence from
the ideal of happy and har-
monious domesticity which those
with faith strive to attain.
Parents who believe and try
to live up to the truths of their
religion are likely to be equipped
with double point of view of
real practical value in bring
ing up a baby. They combine
a sense of responsibility for
present couduct with a coura-
geous faith in the future.
Such parents accept the COM
ing of a little child as a call
upon all that is strong and good
in them. They undertake their
new job in a serious spirit, with
strength of purpose.
Because they believe that God
sends them their baby, they re-

If it's cutwork you are long

better selection than this rose
design, that, with all it's SIM

unusually attractive if the flow
ers are done in rose or yellow
with the leaves in green.

Many Benefits

There are many ways in
which babies may benefit by
the sincerely religious outlook
of their parents.
In the first place, such par
ents are more likely to work
Fundamentally for the preser-
vation of marriage and the
conservation of home. Babies
born to them are less in
danger of growing up to be
children of divorce
Even the very little baby is
sensitive to an environment of
insecurity and emotional up
heaval and violence. The nurs-
ing mother must not allow her
self to become violently angry
or anxious. There will be an
immediate physical effect upon
her milk, and her child will
suffer.
Harsh sounds and loud dis
turbances-the noise of slammed
doors, quarreling voices, furni-
ture flung violently about
startle a little child, disturb it's
sleep and-if they persist

Three Days Wind
Three days a strong wind has
been blowing
With vast and viewless force re-
leased
Like some resistless army going.
Three days it's voices have not
ceased.
Though others weary of its cry
ing
Through all the day, through
all the night
I watch boughs bending, dead
leaves flying
Across the sky with strange de.
light.
AS I within this garden linger
While all earth'S pageantS march
unseen,
Joy comes with wind, the
mighty singer
Who sings far lands, wide seas
between.
Three days the wind now has
been telling
OF emerald fields of ripping
rice,
OF green waves in the tempest
swelling.
Of ships with cargoes beyond
price.
And though my roses petals
scatter
Before these wide wings in the
sky,
I laugh. what do the roses
matter?
Ulysses soul goes marching by!

sons; she has not concentrated
on personal ego!
I speak at such length about
her charm because I want you
to know it is genuine and that
the same thoroughness of char
acter is apparent in everything
she does.
With much candor, she told
me of her beauty routine-the
little daily groomings that give
her assurance and support her
poise.
Her feminine logic has
taught her the advantages of
always looking mice" and she
firmly believes that every
woman can and should improve
her looks.
Miss Dunno would never
think of leaving her bedroom
until she was arefully
groomed. Then she forgets
her appearance and concen-
trates on other things.
She loves fragrances, claim
ing that they do much for
her-especially the bath fra
grances which give her relaxa-
ton, and, more important
than that, make her want to
be especially meticulous in her
dressing. She dresses up to
sWeetly scented skin and
perfumed dressing room!
There is one bath oil she
favors particularly. and this oil
will inspire you, too. to more
careful grooming and a more
concentrated effort to be
charming. Use it and let it
inspire you. A charming wom-
an can gain her end; a dis
gruntled, untidy woman gets
nowhere and is extremely un-
happy in the bargain!

Will you please tell me how to
give an egg shampoo, and how
to make shampoo out Of bar

Sincerely. R. L.
Dear Miss R. L.:
Give an egg shampoo just as
you give any shampoo, using the
yolk of an egg instead of soap.
Wet the hair in warm water,
then massage the yolk we'll into
the scalp. Leave on a few mo-
ments then wash the yolk out,
using several waters. No soap or
shampoo preparation is neces,
Sary.
Rinse we'll in warm water
then cool water, and dry in sun
and air. This shampoo is espe-
cially nice for blonde hair.
To make shampoo from soap:
Shave the soap fine, add water
and cook to a jelly. You can
then place the preparation in a
covered jar to use when wanted.

Doubts
Love
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Written Exclusively for The
WASHINGTON Times

washington TtneS
Dear Miss Fairfax:
The girl I'm crazy about
wants me to give her up for the
next six months, and says if I
still care for her at the end of
that time l might call her up.
She says she likes me better
than any other man she knows,
but she wants to try herself out
and see if she's really in love.
SENTIMENTAL SAM.
I'm always a little suspicious
about girls and men who swear
off friendships in this way. If
this six months separation is
not going to make you too un-
happy, and you think the girl
has asked for it in good faith,
it might be we'll to agree.
But in the meantime, should
certainly cultivate any attrac-
tive girl who happens to appeal
to you. It's a great mistake for
anyone to be too humble.
Waits for Him
Dear Miss Fairfax:
He has been back from Eu-
rope for about six weeks and
has called on me three or four
times, but he never asks for
date or takes me anywhere.
He goes to see other girls and
I hear of him dancing with
them at parties and winding up
at country clubs, and having a
grand time with them.
I don't care to go out with
anybody else; I just sit at home,
watch the clock and hope that
he will call. I am considered
very pretty. But it has made
no impression on him appar-
emily. NEGLECTED.
To stay at home, watch the
clock, and wait for a young
man to call while he is prob
ably out having a good time
with another girl, is foolish.
Take a leaf from his book,
go out and amuse yourself with
other boys. You're young only
once, my dear girl.
Doubtful Amusement
Dear Miss Fairfax:
am an unmarried girl of 10
years of. age, keeping company
with a married man who doesn't
live with his wife. He has an
other girl, too, who lives in the
same apartment house as he
does, on the first floor, and she
pretty we'll keeps tabs on him.
He's a great one to ask me to
meet him on the street corner,
and I feel like fool doing this.
I'm not in love with this man,
and go with him just to pass
away the time.
Wasting your time on mar
ried man seems doubtful amuse-
ment to me. Not unlike paint
ing or helping to pay the mort
gage on someone else's house.
This man is not divorced from
from his wife, and he has an
other girl. Don't you think it
would be more sensible to try
to get a boy friend who seems
less like a syndicate?

sentiments!
Most of the florist shops are
featuring valentine specials, in
the form of a china or glass
heart filled with red and white
flowers, which will do very we'll
for your centerpiece. Set it on
a mirror plaque, and border the
mirror closely with red and
white carnation heads.
Rosy Red
Red candles, of course-in
the rosy red, not the Christmas
shade. A famous paper concern
makes lovely, decorated crepe
paper table cloths, with nap
kins to match, suitable for the
event. If you prefer, and are
lucky enough to possess one, a
lovely lace cloth will make your
table look like a great valen-
tine itself-especially if set over
a rosy-red cellophane under
cover.
Beet consomme, with whipped
cream, will serve as starter in
carrying out the color-scheme.
Thinly sliced pink Virginia ham,
potato salad, beet roses, and
celery curls, accompanied by
heart-shaped cream cheese
sandwiches, would continue the
idea.
For Desserts
For dessert, of course, any OF
the caterers or ice cream con.
Germs can provide you with fancy
valentine molds, both in the
cakes and the ice cream.
Rosy heart-shaped spun sugar
mats are always pretty and ef-
fective. when placed under the
ices. Heart-shaped red and white
mints would round out a very
festive occasion.
