The purpose of applying oil to
the scalp is to overcome drynesS
or an oily condition. The benefit
derived from the oil treatments is
due to a great extent to the slim
ulation and circulation at the
scalp and roots of the hair.
Good circulation is necessary
for the health and beauty of the
hair.
You will massage the scalp in
this way: Place the hands over
the head with the thumbs just in
front of the ears, with pressure of
the fingers rotate the scalp. Do
this movement thoroughly all over
the scalp, front and back of the
head. Then use both hands to
push up the scalp, beginning at
the hairline. Do this all around
the head.
Follow this movement by press
ing down on the scalp. Use force
and press the scalp down at the
top with a pulling movement to-
wards the hairline. Ten minutes
is time enough to give to a scalp
massage.
A hot oil treatment can be done
easily. Take equal parts of
mineral oil and olive oil and l

Perhaps one OF the reasons that
they are not used more often is
from lack of ingenuity in their
preparation.
They can be plain boiled in salt
water only until tender, then sea-
soned with butter and additional
salt and pepper. Better still is to
cook them in parchment paper.
This does away with cooking odorS
and leaves the vegetables juicy,
full-colored.
If you are having a fresh vege-
table plate, the prepared vege-
tables can be tied i'll separate
parchment papers and all cooked
in the same water.
A seasoning made by browning
butter and adding to small
amount of vinegar gives certain
vegetables zestful taste.
BY combining fresh vegetables,
delicious connections may be had.
These recipes are suggested for
your menus this week.

INVITATION TO CHOIR
Dear Mrs. 3eeckman:

Dear Mrs. 3eeckman:
"My fiance and are going to
be married in a few weeks. We
are going to have an early church
wedding which will be informal.
He belongs to a choir and we
would like to have the choir sing
at our wedding.
81 would like to know what form
of letter or invitation would be
appropriate asking them to do
this. am sure they would be glad
to do this for us. "L."
Don't you think that the best
way of making this request would
be to make it through the sexton
or the minister Of your church?
This is usually a professional ar
rangement made through one Of
these sources.
However, if you don't wish to
do it this way, or if this isn't the
custom of your church, then I
suggest that your fiance, who is
a member of the choir, make your
request through the choir director,
whom he probably knows very
we'll.

CCHIAPARELLI, who is always
- bringing out something new,
has done it again, this time in
jeWelry. AS someone said, when
she buys a railroad or boat ticket,
that makes fashion news. For she
is sure to find inspiration for a
whole new set of fashions, in any
country she visits. This new
jewelry is fairly barbaric, so she
must have found it somewhere in
Africa. But it dresses up your
new black costumes just the right
way. It combines white gold, vel,
low gold and copper in a stunning
fashion, and the serpentine lines
are both chic and amusing. You
can wear two bracelets, one on
either arm, with a clip, or wear
just clips and earrings any
combination you might like. Two
clips are $1.95. two earrings 81
and so on.

Etiquette
Should Write
Promptly
ByMRs.CORNEL1Us BEECKMAN

ByMRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
"Some time ago 1 was invited
to a girl friends wedding, which
1 could not attend due to bust
ness hours. However, sent her
a very valuable gift. This was
sent with my card, from the
store from which 1 purchased it.
Gas L have received no acknOwl-
edgment of the gift, would it be
proper to call and ask if she re-
ceived it? AS three weeks have
passed since I had the gift sent.
1 think perhaps the store may
have neglected to enclose the
card? Or should wait until it
is too late to trace the gift, if it
has gone to the wrong person?
"E."
I suspect that this bride is of
the type who so often write me
asking "how long they should
wait after the wedding before
writing thank-you notes for the
wedding gifts!" If only brides
would write their thank-you notes
when they SHOULD write them,
directly after the gift has been
received! Their unnecessary and
unmannerly delay about writing
these important notes so often
means, to the senders, just the
worry that this has meant to
you.
First, I suggest that you try to
find out from the store about the
sending and receipt of this pres
ent. They will probably have
some record-I hope a signed re-
ceipt. If this record isn't COM
plete and satisfying, then sug.
gest that you write your friend,
telling of your worry about the
stores sending it and about your
doubt whether or not your card
was enclosed.

SEEKS IDEAL
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm a young man who knows
his way around. And it has been
my great misfortune never to
have met my ideal girl. The
majority of present-day girls are
fast. They drink, smoke, pet, kiss,
without realizing the meaning of
these things, or assuming their
responsibility.
"Of course I am not a gOOdy-
gOOdy boy, and 1 go along with
them, but I'm constantly dis
gusted at the way girls throw
themselves at you. 1 think it's
shameful. AS for marrying one
of them-never, never, never!
won't some of the more de-
cent of the fairer sex try to
change my point of view by writ
ing to your column what they
think of the necking SiSterhOOd.
3D."
Let's hear what girls have to
say about this young mans
charges. He says he goes along
with them, and at the same time
disapproves, which strikes me as
way of eating his cake and
trying to have it too. There are
plenty like him, however. and
let me remind him it takes two
to manage a bit Of necking.

HE'S SHY

Dear Miss Fairfax:
"Homelier men than l get the
girls because they've more brass.
1 am terribly shy, Stutter a little,
and never make hit with any girl.
"The other night l went to a
party, or rather a lawn fete. / was
having a pretty awful time when
stunning girl came up to me and
asked me to pull one of those
crackers" with her.
at had one of those foolish hats
in it, and she made me put it on.
l thought she was trying to make
Ounce of me and felt kind of
mad. Then she had me pull an
other and she put on the hat,
which was worse than mine. So 1
had a swell time with the girl, the
first ever. Now 1 want to send her
something or invite her somewhere.
What would you suggest?
"BASHFUL."
There's a whole list of summer
outings, to any of which you can
invite this young lady. You might
suggest a movie, Water Gate con-
cert, dinner out-of-doors. There
are a number of nice places in
Washington where people can dine
enjoyably in the open air. Con-
gratulations.

But you may reach a decision 1Or
yourselves when you have read the
frank letter 1 have just received
from an Irish girl with a sense Of
humor, who exults in the fact that
she loves her boss and he loves
her-and has some cauStiC COM
ments to make about his frigid,
extravagant, show-piece society
wife.
At least, there is something here
for wives Of that type to think
about. But perhaps that's too
much to expect. If they were OF
the thinking kind, quite probably
they would never have developed
into that sort of wives.
WHO'S TO BLAME?
AS to the husband Just decide
for yourself whether you blame
him. With such a wife at home,
how could he help falling in love
with the little Irish pal who made
him forget his troubleS-and laugh.
But read her letter:
Dear Miss Fairfax:
81 know my employers wife only
by her voice, when she calls up and
says: please remind Mr.. that
we're dining out tonight, and he
must be home in time to dress
"Pehaps it's my jealOuSy-which
harkS back to the cave days when
women fought with tooth and claw
over the man who was Boss of the
cave-but that vOice-his wife's
voice-makeS me think of the
tinkle of ice; it sounds so cold.
"She represents him socially.
She's in the plate-glass window
where the world can see her er-
mine coat when they go out to
the opera, and the diamonds
which glitter on her breast-the
barometer which informs the
world he is prosperous.
"But I'm the girl he loves,
though I'm not beautiful or we'll
connected, nor is my name written
in the Blue Book. Pm the girl
he really loves. PerFApS it's be-
cause 1 have a Sprinkling of free
kles across my nose, have red hair
and a rOlIicking sense of humor
(my Irish fOrbears be thanked) ,
that can always make the boss
laugh and forget his troubles.
"And he has had them, too;
terribly dark days when we didn't
know whether the business, which
had been in the family for three
generations, was going to founder
or not. But always / could make
the boss laugh, and 1 could imi-
tate the solemn mOgulS who used
to come around and hang crepe
on our door.
"Bless your enchanting ugly
little Irish mug" he'd say to me
after the worst Of the crepe hang
erS had gone, and together we'd
cook up a letter that looked like
a million dollars in reserve, when
the bank was dunning him be-
cause he had Overdrawn, and
threatening him, too.
mo, there isn't going to be any
divorce, or any thought Of mar
rage, even if the lady whose voice
is as cold as tinkling ice were to
die. 1 know my place, and 1
wouldn't swap it for any wifely ex-
hibitiOn in a place-glass show win
dow.
1--WE have a comradeship, the
boss and 1, that's better than any
thing else the fates have to offer.
We've weathered plenty of stormy
weather-and 1 can always make
him laugh.
MAKES HIM LAUGH

voice go out to dinner with him

Skirts Shorter

q KIRTS are definitely shorter
y for fall. After two or three
seasons of threatened short
age, they are at last going up.
The skirts will be flared, many
of them, and slim, some of
them. A general rule, if you
want one, is that if you have
a fairly tight fitting bodice or
waist, then the skirt would
flare. A skirt that is worn be-
meath a swagger jacket or coat
should be slim.

THE name of this clever bib or
l. vest, as you prefer it, is the
"wire pleated topper" We thought
we'd wear it inside a suit, but we
find it does just as we'll on the
outside of a dress. Anyway, it
combines several fall fashion fea-
tureS-wire pleating, which is just
that much finer and smarter than
accordion pleating; new colorS,
such as wine, gold, brown, blue,
emerald, red, rust. navy-not for
getting black; high neck, and a
peplum effect, in the little pleated
frill that falls below the waistline.
It's really just bib, but can take
the place of a piece of neckwear,
or a blouse. It's just 81, and is
of fine quality crepe.

of the leaders of the national
JefferSonian Democratic group,
prepared to go to Portland, Me-,
Thursday night to make his first
formal address in behalf of Gov

He will be joined by former U.
S. Senator James A. Reed, DR..
