mineral oil; then cover it with
salt, and on top of that pat on
some olive oil. Rub it very gently
around the nose or any rough
dried Sunburn spots. After the
skin is thoroughly saturated with
it, remove the mixture. first with
tepid water, then with an ice-cold
rinsing. Two or three of these oil
treatments will remove the sum-
mer tan, says Joan.
Joan says she likes salt for a
lot of things; she thinks one should
brush the teeth with salt every
day. Her teeth are perfect, and
that should be hint enough for
any one.
Greta Carlo may be the eXclu-
sive one, but with all her exotic
loneliness, we find she is extremely
active and has her ideas about
foods just the same as you and I.
She is an expert swimmer. and
like Johnny Weismuller, prefers a
good clean ocean rather than her
smart pool, although she uses
that many times.
She eats raw vegetable salad
for lunch, and-believe it or not
those unusually long, silky lashes
that we always thought were ap-
piled, are not-they are her own.
The exquisite little Jean Harlow
has for her lunch clear vegetable
conSomme made of a mixture OF
cooked vegetables, and tn e n
strained.
The very important stars may
have their meals served in their
own private bungalows at the
studio, or they frequently have
their own servants there to prepare
any special dish they like.
Care of Eyes
There is not as much trouble
from the lights as they used to
have. Some time ago we used to
hear of players suffering from
Kleig- light trouble. The lights, be-
fore they were perfected, were
very hard on the eyes. But that
hazard. they say, has been re-
moved. They find that dark
glasses are very restful, and they
ere worn for protection rather
than a disguise, we are told.
Marsha Hunt thinks one should
always put little pads of cotton
wet with witch hazel over the
eyes, when resting. 1t is cooling
and removes redness or swelling.
Cute Marie Wilson told us more
about that switch of hers that she
just loves. 1t is really a very nice
little switch and she wears it in
a little coil at the neck line, and
as she says, it always keeps the
short ends in place.

the smart night places they are
always sparkling and fresh as

"End-Of-the-Day"
According to Max Factor, who
knows every girls beauty secret,
here is one of the "end-of-the-
day" recipes he prescribed for
the radiant Claudette Colbert.
Add an ice cube to a saucer
filled with eau de cologne or any
other aStringent lotion. Battle the
face in this iced liquid and leave
it wet, fan it with a towei to
assist the cooling evaporation,
then soak two small pieces Of
cotton in the lotion and place
over the eyes. This is a perfect
inducement to a relaxing beauty
nap-and when you awaken you
are all refreshed and ready to go.
They say that Marion Talley
keeps her skin velvety by using
velvet towels. She uses soap and
water, then rinseS her skin thor
oughly and dries it with a velvet
towel. That is one we have never
tried.
Her friends tell us that Marion
has a lovely figure now, and
doesn't look even like a distant
relative of the chubby girl who
made her debut in grand opera.
She is not so very tall, but is
down to 102 pounds.
They are brushing the waves
lot now and frequently they brush
the whole wave out. We noticed
so many of the girls at the Percy
Westmore salon with a wavelesS,
smooth top of the head and not
sign of wave except at the ends
and the ends are rolled under
instead of the upward roll we
have been wearing. The effect is
new and smart, but be sure you
are the type for this somewhat
severe style, as it is not flattering
to everyone. To begin with: You
had better be young. A soft wave
effect will do more for a mature
face.
AStrid Allwyn loves to lave a
lot of different shades of powdet'
and perfume around. She does
not use much makeup. but likes
to have nice, full makeup cabinets.
Keeps Skin Smooth
When Joan Blondell has time,
she likes to try some of her orig
inal beauty treatments. Here is
one she gave up; it is for keeping
the skin smooth:

Perhaps Joseph, in view of his
experience, will agree that he
would have been more nearly a
perfect secretary" if he had quit
his job as soon as he discovered
the grande dame had conceived a
tender passion for him. Anyway,
he probably wouldn't have lost his

HAS GOOD JOB
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
"If there is such a thing as love
at first sight, we are both ex-
periencing it. Tom and 1 met at
a dance and fell for each other
almost Immediately. Since then,
we have seen each other almost
every day.
Hes just the sort of man I've
been looking fora good COM
paniOn, never muShy or a violent
peter. And what is equally at
tractive, he has a good job.
"My mother and father are
very keen on him. The only draw.
back is we've known each other
only six weeks. We want to be
married almost Immediately, but
mother and dad say that's too
short a time, and they want us to
wait till spring. What do you
think about it?
"ALBERTINA."
When you've known a person
for six weeks, and see him almost
every day, it seems to me that
you might know him almost, as
well as if you'd known him year.
There's an old adage to the effect
that blessed is the wooing that
isn't long in doing"
Dad might have the usual
fatherly talk with him about the
practical side of the arrange

clude in today'S column refers to
a situation for which there have
been many presidents. Many a
woman has fallen in love with
some boy young enough to be her
son, or even her grandson.
And when the boy is in her

she has the means of welding a

in the least. But read "Joseph's"
letter.
SIMILAR COMPLICATIONS
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Personally, I'm used to ladies
first So 1 have read with much
interest all of your Girl-and-BOSS
series, without coming across a
case like mine. For though you
have ignored it, there are similar
complications when the Boss is a
lady and her secretary is maScu-
line, young and gOOd-lOOking.
For fear of disclosing her
identity, 1 shall not mention any
thing of my environment. Suf-
flee to say that, at the age Of
II, I found myself in the position
of secretary to lady who was
more than twice my age.
"She was a highly important
parsonage, a grande dame, and
represented much wealth and in
fIuence. approached my duties
in the same spirit as a hired
young man would have approached
the late Queen Victoria. l was
reserved, buSinesSlike, and defer
entail.
"The affair started when the
lady began asking me to share
lunch with her. This was always
brought in on a tray and eaten
at her desk. would have pre-
ferred to dash to the nearest
beanery and wolf hot dogs and cot
fee in peace, as / found the court
etiquette over these lunch trays
extremely trying. After a while
it was understood that / was to
lunch with her every day.
"Then she began inviting me to
her place for week-endS. 1t wasn't
possible to get out of these royal
commands and would have been
blind, deaf, and dumb if 1 hadn't
realized that my boss felt tender,
~, oh so tenderly, toward her
bOy-secretary.
CASES ARE SIMILAR
Things were very much the
same as your lady correspondents
have described, because have
found there is no great difference
between masculine and feminine
human nature. There were no
complications in the way of a
wife, but 1 was very much in love
with a girl in my home town, to
whom / was engaged.
CATER a while my boss put her
cards on the table. She proposed
to me, telling me that, while she
had been married previously, this
was the first time she had been
really in love.
81 told her that was afraid of
the worlds verdict. 1 should be
considered an adventurer who had
wOrmed his way into her affec
tiOnS, and that there would be
complications on the part of her
relatives.
"She then proposed less formal
relations, but, to tell the truth,
could not muster scrap of inter
