7 DON'T want to 60 down on record
as saying that I put beauty before
important study, though sometimes I
feel 1t is more important to ones des-
tiny. I don't think it Is necessary for
the college miss cut classes to devote
the time to beauty. But I do feel there
is room for beauty in the college girls
program. and q ma jor place it should
have. What Is more. 1t Is gratifying
to note the movement afoot to give
beauty such a place in the college cur
riculum. Some colleges have already
added courses In charm.
And. though, I say the college girl
should assign q major place to beauty;
II her program is q sane, sensible one.
beauty should take less time than any
other course OF study. After all, isn't
beauty an important course of study

ments and how to make the most Of
them?

her ego, yet not enough to distract

As say, the daily program should
be very simple. The young college girls
skin shouldn't need more than cleans
ing and toning with possibly the addi-
ton Of q light nourishing cream If the
skin Is dry or In extremes of weather
Hair care: brushing and scalp massage

But the college girl can lead q dual
personality from a pictorial point Of
view. To classes she wears very deli
cate makeup. Gay dances or parties
are something else again. To classes
her coiffure should be quite simple.
But II it is the adaptable" kind it can
turn slamorous, intricately so, at a
flick Of the comb. She goes to her
studies In smartly simple, practical
clothes: but week end evenings find
her in romantic rufiies. It's interesting! |!

nEAR BOYS AND GIRLS: When

BY ANGELO PATRI.
DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS: When
ever you find strange child in
your class, in the playground. or in
your neighborhood, go out of your way
to meet him, speak to him and make
him welcome. 1t is very hard to be
stranger among strangers.
A boy or girl your age comes to
live near you and go to your school.
That must mean that he has left
school where he was known and where
he had friends. 1t means that he has
left the familiar things he has known
and loved behind him and that he is
feeling his lonely way about in this
strange place.
OF course it is not strange to you.
You know the policeman on the cor
ner He smiles at you. or he shouts
warning at you. as you 60 and come.
He Is your friend. You know the fruit
stand man and his cranky ways. He
growls at you as you pass and you
smile and call, "Hullo, Tony" for you
know he likes you. When you 60
down the street somebody yells across
to you, somebody slaps you on the
back some one grabs your hat or
knocks your books from under your
arm. and you protest valiantly and
joyously. You are among friends.
The boy or the girl who has just ar
rived knows nobody. The officer is
stranger in uniform, the children are
strangers who might be unfriendly,
the teachers are all new and fearsome.
The one in the yard who swells his
chest and roars, Line up," Is just
Uncle Tommy to you, but he is ter
ror to the stranger. And the bells. the
monitors, the trafic regulations-all
familiar and matter of fact to you-
are bewildering to the stranger who
does not know whether he is to 60 for
ward or back or when or how. Help
him.
Whenever you meet a stranger child
smile at him and take him along with
you. If you can't 60 his way just then
see that some friendly boy or girl takes
him over and makes him feel certain
of himself. 1t is the only decent thing
to do. You would want to be treated
that way yourself If you were in
strange school or a new neighborhood.
Children coming from another
country or city are likely to be differ
ent from you and the other children.
If they come from . far country
their differences will be marked. Their
language will be different from yours.
Maybe they will not be able to talk
to you at all, and in that case you
would be very thoughtful Of them and
help them all you could, of course.
Imagine how you would feel If you
could not make yourself understood
among the people about you. 1t is q
terrible predicament, especially for q
child.
Their clothes and their manners,
their accent may be different from
yours. What of it? Your good man
ners would prevent your making any
remark about such things, and you
would do your best to put the stranger
at ease. Just be kind. You will find
syour heart warmer, your step lighter,
your day brighter because you have
come closer to . human child. Just
try to remember the stranger
Cordially, ANGELO PATRI.

tne nouns from taxing up nVlng quar-
ters in clothing and similar materials.
In addition to the above precautions,
the Bureau OF Entomology of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture says that napthalene flakes or
balls in large quantities, placed in the
sealed containers, also are helpful in
keeping the pests at bay. The fumes
from this substance do not lust
smelr'-they actually gas the insects
in a minor way. Gum camphor and
one or two other products of the same
type also may be found effective. The
danger in using any of these substances
lies in the fact that most people do not
realize that just as soon as all the
fumes are given off and the crystals
evaporate the articles so treated are
no longer safe Renewal of the pro-
tective flakes is indicated at once.
OF course, cold storage and profess
sional fumigation may be depended
upon at all times to save the articles
from moths, and, for many people,
both are the simplest and surest So
mtions, if one doesn't have to count
pennies. Fumigation should be under
taken only by an expert.
IN THE matter Of clothes moths
attacking upholstered furniture
and rugs, things are definitely more
difficult. Constant brushing. deep
vacuuming and exposure to light and
air are the best preventives. The
larvae feed upon the wOolen flberS in
covers, the feathers in cushions and
upon the hair filings. Vegetable
products used in upholstery are not
fed upon by the larvae. and therefore
furniture protected with thick layer
of cotton batting placed between the
outer covering and the filling stands
q better chance than furniture so con-
etructed that the moths can eat their
way gayly through the outside fabric
to the inside structure.
The female moth lays her eggs in
the tufting of piled carpets or covers
or in some dark, inaccessible corner
at the back Of the chair or sofa. The
eggs hatch and the larvae start to
work. eating their way through the
covering or squeezing through thy
openings to get at the filler inside the
piece.
Much Of the problem of clothes
moths in furniture may be eliminated
If the piece is covered with covers of
leather, silk, cotton, rayon or linen.
However, as many people want
woolen fabric as cover for uphol-
stored furniture, they must have some
otner medium of control.
Mothproof1ng solutions are good,
If used repeatedly and thoroughly.
Many manufacturers are making
cover materials now that are chem
ically treated, and guaranteed moth
proof over q number Of years. Well
made furniture today is generally so
constructed as to be almost mothproof
in any case-but many of us have
old family pieces in the home, over
which we must constantly stand
guard.
CLIP covers made of linen or cot
ton. If tightly fitted, are good:
they should, however. be removed at
frequent intervals, washed, cleaned or
brushed, and the cover beneath them

The Old Gardener Says:

As . rule, there are not many
pests which infest dahlias, but
sometimes damage is done by
moles. which use the runs made
by field mice and ruin the dahlia
plants. 1t Is not possible, of
course, to use bisulphide of car
bon or similar remedies in runs
which are close to dahlia plants,
because the plants themselves
would be ruined. Mole traps seem
to give the best results. There
are several kinds, and II one kind
proves inefficient, another should
be tried. 1t is important not to
touch the trap with the bare
hand, as the pests seem to catch
the human odor quickly. Some
garden makers have been able to
save their dahlias only by setting
up l0-inch boards In the ground
around the beds. This Is . plan
which can be adopted to advan-
tage when only . few choice
plants are being grown. It is .
plan which rose growers also use.

to keep the garden free from the

given q good brushing or vacuuming
to destroy any possible eggs that an
exploring female has laid beneath
the cover in a crack or corner.
Contact sprays are helpful, If ap-
piled often. Care should be taken
that the spray is not applied so closely
or heavily that the fabric becomes
spotted. The fumes resulting will
take care of a mild infestation OF
moths. but if piece of furniture ap-
pears to be really overrun-then fumi-
cation is the only answer.
This should be done by a reliable
concern. and the simplest way to 60
about it is to send the infested piece
to a storage or fumigating firm, and
have it set in their gas chamber"
for the required period Of time, and
then returned to you.
Wrapping sofas and chairs in tight
paper bindings. with napthalene or
some similar substance under the
wrapping. is effective when done to
protect the furniture during an ar
sence Of few months. Again, how
ever, 1t should be borne in mind that
when the fumes cease, so does the
protection, and the pieces should eithe-
be rewrapped, and treated, or exposed
to general use.
AS with clothing, protection of rugs
and furniture from moths is ac-
complished only by unwearying Wig
lance. No article should be allowed
to remain unused or kept from light
and air over too long period of
time, no matter how carefully you
think you have taken care of it. And
remember that brushing and vacuum
ing are invaluable. They keep the
eggs on the move, and do not give the
larvae a chance to make a meal OF
your most cherished possessions.

and nobody knows how to bring it
about. Why brothers and sisters do
not initiate the little bros that in
their nests agree" as the nursery
rhyme says, nobody knows. 1t just
seems instructive for them to differ on
every subject in the world and to get
into each others hair. as you will OBJ
serve If you will notice two little angels
at play. Five minu es is as long as a
peace pact reigns between them. Then
they mix it. The thing that turns
mothers gray is refereeing fights be-
tween their children.
PERHAPS the reason that brothers
and sisters do not get along AMIGA
bly, together Is because they are too
much alike. They have too many of the
same characteristics. Oliver Wendell
Holmes once said that the reason that
families broke up and scattered to the
four corners of the earth was natures
remedy for keeping the Joneses from
being Jonesed to death and the Smiths
from being Smithed out of existence.
Or perhaps the reason that brothers
and sisters squabble when they are
children is because they are children
and hence little savages with all Of
. savage's selfishness and greediness
and lack Of consideration for others

seem that for real economy of time
and money, as well as for goodness,
they will, or should, become very pop
