She is a golden girl both in ap-
pearance and ability. Her hair is
called red, but is a flaming bronze
that ScintillateS with flashes Of
bright gold. She is one beauty
whose skin is in perfect harmony
with her eyes and hair. 1t is that
fair skin that one loves to associ-
ate with auburn hair.
She even has the freckles that
go with it, so she told me, but
they must be very few and tiny,
as there were none visible.
Ever since she was a little girl
she was taught to act. Her mother
was an actress and all of Joseph
ines schooling was directed to-
wards one object, which was the
stage or a future on the screen.
When she was eight years old,
her mother took her to Hollywood
where she appeared in "The Little
Princess with Mary Pickford.
After that she was very anxious
to stay there and cherished the
childish dream that she was a
fullfledged actress and had made
her place in pictures.
Best Training
Her mother had other plans for
the young lady before she was al
lowed to settle in Hollywood, and
took her home to Seattle to finish
school. Her training included in
tensive training in music and
dancing. Then her professional
career began.

PROFESSOR Harold Smith OF BoS-

secretary" found herself in love
with her boss she'd quit her job,
because the job or the love affair
would suffer.
Today we have a letter from a
correspondent who takes an en-.
tirely new tack. She transferred
an earthly love to the spiritual
plane, and found peace.
''Dear Miss airfax:
"The letters which have come
to your column about girls falling
in love with their bosses, and vice

to me.
"The only dramatic thing that

ATCH those four spots!
w Wrinkles in the forehead, at
the corners of the eyes, around
the mouth, and in the neck! That
Is where you will show your age
if you don't look out. And here's
an amazing story of a simple way
to combat the tell-tale marks. It
IS a many-purpoSe cream called
Beauty Sleep" because you simply
put it on and have a good nights
Sleep-let your wrinkles pass in
the night, as they say. It does
the work that you usually expect
Of two or three creams or maSqueS
it draws out pore impurities and
gradually eliminates blackheadS;
it refines the skin without irri-
tating; it refreshens and tones
without the use of astringents; it
helps correct too oily or too dry
condition; it holds relaxed tissues
in place and aids in preventing
premature wrinkles; its daily use
tends to tighten the muscles in the
four danger spots. It is said that
results start Immediately. And
best of all, it's not as expensive
as most high-grade preparations.
A so treatment jar costs but 50.
And furthermore, you can use it
every night. It's brand-new in
Washington, just being introduced
this week. And, oh yes, it has a
lovely texture, like marShmalloW
whip, almost, and a delightful
gardenia fragrance, very delicate
and subtle.

AFTER THE DANCE

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
SIS it proper for young man
to thank his partner after a dance,
or should the young lady do so?
"S."
It's the man who, after dance,
thanks the girl for the dance.
And the girl makes some pleasant
comment that says that she, too,
enjoyed it. "It was delightful,
