Effect of
.Li.g h t n G
On Makeup
Regular and Blue
Bulbs Require Care
full Consideration.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

A S I have so often told you in this
column, it is important to know
something of the light you are to
appear in in order to have your make
up quite perfect. When it is impos-
sible for you to ascertain in advance
just what intensity and color the
lights are to be, the safe rule Is to
make up for daytime before daylight
and for evening before electric lights.
Among the many questions on
makeup that have come to me as
result of my recent series on this
subject is this: do you recommend
the use of blue daylight bulbs for
| make-up?"
These bulbs are often used in de-
partment stores, on counters display
ing materials, in order to give pur-
chaser true idea Of the color as it
will look in daylight. These blue
bulbs are also used in beauty salons
for blending powders and rouges in
tended for daytime makeup.
But when using them at home their
effect must be understood. These
bulbs more nearly approximate day
light than the regular bulbs. There
fore, If one happens to have a par
ticularly dark room, with little or no
sun or light, it is well to use the blue
bulbs.
However, if one makes up beneath
their light and then appears under
regular artificial light, the makeup is
likely to be much too apparent Pre-
cisely the same principle prevails for
making up before blue bulbs as before
actual daylight.
Have you noticed how popular white
| lamp shades have become? One of
the country's leading light specialists
contends that decorators are working
i with beauticians in this. On every
side feminine beauty seems to be get
ting hft-from the milliner, the
couturier and even the interior deco
rator. The lighting specialist ex-
plains her reasons for the popularity
OF white. Colored shades are to be
avoided because colors leave their
mark upon the surfaces they touch.
If, for example, the surface happens
to be your face, you may find a
cameleon change if you have made
up under the light from a blue shade
and later seat yourself at the bridge
table beneath rose one. White or
neutral shades. trimmed with colors
to harmonic with your room colors.
are better than completely colored
| shades.

scribe the color of your skin, eyes
and hair and shall be happy to in
clude some special costume color notes.

w " III q ~ i y
woman. Here I make a distinction
between her and the "womanish
woman. The "womanly" woman has
a maternal quality combined with
what one might call the greatness
of her sex-a generosity of soul which
makes her big, understanding, and
one might almost say, divine.
The 'womanish" woman is one who
stays down on earth. She is tied to
her petty feelings and personal pref
udices. She has none of the great
ness of the other woman. But every
woman Is a combination of both types,
to q greater or lesser degree.
I do not believe that physical charm
is the most. important factor in mar
riage. Naturally can speak more pos
itively about the Englishman. He does
not marry a woman for her sex-appeal
and it isn't the thing that holds him.
They get married because they have
similar tastes and aims. Each has
something fine to contribute to the
marriage. Because the mans attach
ment for his wife is based on some
thing sound and durable. it is apt to
grow with the years. He is apt to
love her more.
So the English wife does not have
to be constantly wondering whether
she can still charm her husband. 1t
doesn't matter what she looks like. II
she has the qualities I've mentioned,
and she takes her marriage obligations
seriously, she will not only hold him.
She will be his other half. And
his better half too.

AdOleScent
Child and
His sGrOwth
Understanding Aids
During Period of
Adjustment.
BY ANGELO PATRI.


CHILDREN grow gradually. They
~ 60 through several stages of de-
velopment and become different chill
dten from what they have been be-
fore. A child is not at all like the
baby he was. and an adolescent Is
not very much like the child he was
The stages merge so gradually that
unless one is watching closely the
change is not apparent until some
stroke of behavior startles and alarms
the family.
Some of the behavior difficulties
arise because we have certain pat
terms in our minds which we think
children ought to follow. We, having
outgrown the different stages of
growth and having arrived at ma
turity, forget what happened and see
only the present form Of behavior
which we have set for ourselves and
for our children. The pattern never
fits. A child must be child in his
turn precisely as he has to be help
less infant. The adoleScent must be
lust that when the time comes and
we ought not to find his antics so
annoying and so absurd. They are
the natural expressions of his stage
of growth. If We can remember this
and forget our horror We will get
along much better and the children
will grow faster and in better grace.
Boys and girls of and have lit
tie thought for the comfort of other
people. To them there are no other
people. Nobody except themselves oc-
cupy their world. We must accept
the fact of their unconscious egotism
and do our best to offer them expert
ences that will awaken them to con-
sciousneSs of a world other than theirs.
We have to teach them manners, rou-
tine, working habits. ethics. But
and this is important to all who deal
with children-we cannot make them
perfect examples OF ethical and polite
behavior They are children, and in
their stage of growth we can hope for
some shade of adjustment, but no
great finish of performance.
The adolescent is the most trouble
some because we give him the least
consideration. We look at the long
legs and arms, we remember his
weight, we are still RED in the face
at the thought of our experience in
the youths department where moth
ing fitted him. He is full-size and
weight and he ought to behave like
a human being. The fact is that he
ought not to behave like anybody
except an adolescent child who for
gets his manners, cannot find room for
his legs, doesn't know where to put
his hands, takes his hat of too late
and keeps it on too long He forgets
what he ought to remember and re-
members what we most want him. to
forget. He plays wildly and he weeps
bitterly, for no real cause either time.
know well the trouble these boys
and girls make, but there is no sense
in blaming them. We can teach, we
can set good examples, we can praise
and encourage and. at times, punish,
but time and growth are what brings
the change from stage to stage. And
that is nothing to grieve over. Chill
dren are safer, many time, in the
hands of Time and Experience than
they would be with us older folk who
would have them grow up according
to our plan rather than the one Or
dained for them.

bands. They are weary of pinching
pennies and slaving at housework. And
they think that all they have to do
to be happy and prosperous and gay
and carefree is to get a divorce.
MO OTHER one thing in the world
L Y would do as much for the happi-
ness and general good of women as
to convince them that, generally speak
ing, there Is no profit for them in
divorce. OF course, there are excep-
tionaI cases in which divorce Is as
necessary as the surgeons knife that
cuts away a cancer, but ninety-nine
times out of a hundred for q wife to
get q divorce from her husband only
makes a bad matter worse.
Maybe the husband philanders
around a little. Maybe he Is undemon-
strative and takes his wife for granted.
Maybe he Is grouchy and hard to get
along with. Maybe he goes to sleep
over his paper of an evening. But ne
provides a home and comfort for his
family. He educates his children. His
wife has her own place in society. And
If his wife divorces him she is thrown
out into the world to support herself
and the children, helped by little
grudgingly paid alimony. Many
woman finds that all she gets out VI
divorce is the necessity Of standing
behind q counter.

V you ''live" in your suit, and
" print looks better on sunny
days than on cloudy ones, so
Il to give yourself change that
may be combined with the top coat
of your suit we suggest a smart knit
ted frock. These are always in good
taste, and if well chosen as to color
and weave, will prove one Of the
handiest things in your wardrobe.
We have found an exceptionally
good model in a zephyr knit that will
meet all requirements of the business
girl and give her lots of service. This
one comes in a natural woolen color,
with small diamond-ike figures of
green and white. 1t has saddle shoul-
ders, breast pockets and one of those
nice necklines that is high, yet slashed
down the front to allow for tucking
an ascot inside. A green wooden one
comes with the dress, but, of course,
several other kinds would also be
suitable and give fresh touch to
the outfit. This model is shown
with green felt hat and green suede
gloves. The dress also comes in
French blue, patterned in dusty pink
and white nice to wear with gray
coat and hat.

FOR the dark-haired brunette COL
lege girl there is luscious rasp-
berry angora sports sweater matched
up with a snappy plaid skirt of black,
gray and white with touches of dark
red, that makes smart combination
With a felt hat of matching dark red
and one of those oxford gray swag-
gers, this is just the outfit for i'm
mediate wear.
Leather tans" seem to be having
a fling and you find them in light
yellowish tan, like pigskin, as well
as a medium reddish tone, like calf
skin, which is apt to be called lug

matched up and shown with a con-
trasting color. In the light saddle
tan we found a good two-piece suit
in nubby knit, with a neck cord and
narrow belt Of Kelly green. Saddle
tan bag and kid gloves to match were
displayed with this suit. also a green

A N ATTORNEY who has assist
~ ed 5000 husbands and wives
~ in breaking their matrimonial
4 N bonds declares that the only
people who profit by divorce are the
lawyers, and that the men and women
who cannot get along peaceably with
one wife or husband are not likely to
live harmoniously with another.
I commend this statement to the
careful consideration of the dis
yruntled couples who believe that mar
riage would be an earthly paradise,
instead Of the hell they find it, If
only they were free Of their mates
and married to some one else. Such
is not the case. Marriage is marriage,
with the same restrictions, with the
same obligations, calling for the same
sacrifices whether 1t is a first one or
a tenth. Those who could not adapt
themselves to it in the beginning will
rebel against its limitations to the
end. and the man and woman who
could not adjust themselves to Sue
and Tom find it equally impossible to
adjust themselves to Isabel and Percy.
There is no such thing as the per-
feet mate Of whom they dream and
in swapping husbands and wives they
simply exchange one set Of faults for
another and one set Of characteristics
for another that Is just as hard to
endure. Mr.. A. divorces Mrs. A., who
is a crackerjack cook and house,
keeper, but a boresome companion,
and he marries No. 2 wife, who is q
brilliant conversationalist, but pol
sonous cook and a nagger. He swaps
her for No. 8, who is easy-going and
goor-natured, but a ruinous SPEND
thrift.
Women are the petitioners in more
than two-thirds Of the divorce cases.
This is partially due to the fact that
it is considered gallant gesture for
a husband to let his wife ask for q
divorce and lay the blame for it on
him. But mostly 1t is because women
have q naive and child-like belief thst
divorce is cure-all for whatever ails
them. Life hasn't given them all they
wanted. They haven't enough money.

Regarding
Names and
PrOprieties
BY EMILY POST,

DEAR MRS. POST; AS guest at
woman's club party recently
was asked to start new guest book.
afterward my sister brought me to task
for not writing Mary Brown Doe.
Please tell me who is right"
AnSwer-If the book is one to b left
on the front tahle for every visitor to
sign, Mrs. John Doe would not have
been incorrect. But if it was more
personal one, signed by certain mem
bers only, you should have signed your
name Mary Brown Doe. In other
words. the rule is that lady always
signs her married name with the pre-
fix Mrs. (Mrs. John Doe) in a public
register, but she signs friends guest
book Mary Brown Doe. 1t all depends,
therefore, upon the rating of the book.
Dear Mrs. Post: My son is to be
married soon and his fiancee has asked
me to play the organ in the church
during and prior to the ceremony. I
am professional and would be glad
to play for love, but I'm wondering
whether it would be considered irregu-
lar for the groom's mother to take this
part in the wedding"
Answer-I have never heard Of this
before and it does not sound quite suit
able, and yet I don't know Of any rule
against this further thar your own
inclination. If the organ bench is
placed at the side of the chancel, so
that your place would be near the
bridal group, then it might seem no
more strange for you to play than for
a clergyman t. officiate at the mar
riage of his daughter. But If you
would be at distance from the we'd
ding group and perhaps not even
have clear view, I don't think it
would be suitable at all

Technically, there are lots Of tricky
things one must know about the
source and the behavior Of these food
components. Some of them are soluble
in fat-some specifically balance
others-all very fancy" but really
important for the housewife to know
and to understand.
A and D are "fat-soluble" vitamins,
and are found in some Of the same
foods. There are outside sources also
from which they may be derived. The
bureau explains:
"Vitamin A is found in two classes
of foods. The best sources of vitamin
A are, on the one hand, yellow vege-
tables, yellow fruits, and green leafy
vegetables, and on the other hand,
certain foods from animal sources.
This is due to the fact nutritionists
say, that the mother substance" OF
vitamin A. or its precursor" Is caro-
tene, yellow coloring matter in car
rots and in other yellow vegetables
and fruits. Carotene is also present
in the green leafy vegetables. although
here it is masked by the green color
ing or chlorophyll Carotene in these
foods, when eaten by man or beast. be-
comes vitamin A in the body.
Each of the vitamins is important
in its own way. Nutritionists have
found that vitamin A is necessary not
only for growth and development Of
the body generally. but In particular
to keep the Innings in good condition
membranes of the nose, sinuses, throat,
lungs and the digestive tract. This is
one of the vitamins the body can store
up, but when foods providing vitamin
A are lacking long enough for the
body's store to be depleted, those lin
ings lose resistance to infection and
trouble sets in.
THERE need be no lack of vitamin
A, however, if the right foods
are chosen, and used often enough.
| The variety Of foods rich in vitamin
A-that is. rich in carotene, or vita
min A, or both-iS such that one
or more such foods may easily ap-
pear on the table in the course of a
day, or even at every meal Rich,
however, is a comparative term.
There is actually not very much
vitamin A in any food, so there is little
chance of getting too much in our
meals. The best sources Of vitamin A
are:
animal foods-Liver. egg yolks, but
ter, cream cheese, cheddar cheese,
cream, salmon (fresh or cannedD. cod
liver oil and other fish liver oils.
"Vegetables-Greens of all kinds
and the green parts (but not the
white parts) of lettuce, cabbage, and
other leafy salad vegetables, greer
peppers, green peas. green beans
carrots. sweet potatoes, yellow squash
and tomatoes.
"Fruits-Apricots, prunes and vel.

BILL SPEEDED
so CONGRESS
CAN ADJOURN

WASHINGTON, March l3. UR)--
Speaker Joseph w. Byrns said to-
day that the administration tax
bill would be given legislative
right-o in an effort to obtain
adjournment of congress by May
/.
Byrns announcement came af-
ter a White House conference with
President Roosevelt.
He said he was hopeful that con-
troversy over the tax measure in
committee would be worked out so
that the bill could be placed before
the house for action in two weeks.
Meanwhile, house tax experts in
formally agreed that the presidents
proposed corporate surplus tax
should yield $62OOOO,OOO regardless
of revsions. Chairman Samuel B.
Hill, D., Wash, indicated however
that the tax bill probably would
not be ready before April 10.
