Miss Lee Sees Grain
of Truth In Story
of Long Ago
BY VIRGINIA LEE

ONCE IN MY callow youth I
wrote a story-a sort of fable-in
which I visioned a world full of
winged folk. They were trying
desperately to fly, but all were
tethered to the ground and their
efforts were futile.
told how walked among them.
All had tasks to perform and were
doing them grudgingly, trying to
get away from them. Then came
to some who were willingly doing
what they could to help the others.
Happily they toiled, not trying to
leave their tasks, but contented to
do them and do them well. And
they, I noted, were the only ones
Of the great throng who were free!
This was only a youthful BRAIN
storm, as said, and yet, after all
these years and experience, I still
can see that there is some truth
In my story. Dislike of ones job
and discomfort generally do chain
us to the earth and spoil our flights.
And we are much freer when We
do our work willingly and try to
make things pleasant for those
with whom we live. At any rate,
we're not conscious of our chains,
and consequently we're much hap
pier.
B. E. has found out the truth of
the idea that if you are too posses
sive you lose your man. She is
only is SO she can't learn any
earlier that you can't monopoliZe
q mans time and allow him no
freedom or he's apt to get weary
and slip away on his own-leaving
you to mourn. The man or woman
who tries to tie their loved ones
down is going to lose them, as sure
as shooting. No one likes to be
kept in a cage or tethered to any,
thing without wanting to break
away. Men and women grow as
restive as wild animals under those
circumstances.
3. Els boy friend has been step
ping out, and wants her to go with
other boys. He says he would like
the experience of taking her away
from them. He's tired of being her
Only True Love and feels the need
of little competition.
Well, give it to him, B. E. Give
him plenty of it. And don't be in
a hurry to give him a date when he
wants it. Keep him guessing. That
is the only sensible answer to that
one.
FRIEND DLE S s STUDENT:
You'll have to forget that little
self of yours. AS you are shy and
don't mix easily you will have to
make yourself go more than half
way with others. BE friend and
then you'll have plenty of pals.

Americas Most Famous Beauty"
BACK IN THE days when the
French crown rested upon the un-
easy head Of King Louis XIV, the
great ladies of the court were very
much addicted to the wearing of
patches. These patches were tiny
bits of black court plaster that,
when pasted on the face, resembled
coquettishly-situated beauty spots.
In those days beauty spots were
thought to inspire everlasting love
in man. And the court beauties
used these simulated beauty spots
always on state occasions, in the
belief that the little patches great
ly enhanced the charm and allure
Of their countenances.
Beauticians claim that the art of
wearing provocative patches Is go
ing to be revived by women now,
DCCduSc VI Lie IOifldIlllC lIlDucIlCC
of the new Princess dress styles
Of the Empire period. We're to
become coquettes again, it seems.
I can think of worse fads. For
the tiny, artificial beauty spots are
unobtrusiye, can be placed where
desired, and can be easily removed
If unbecoming.
Unattractive Moles
However, even If this fad does
achieve popularity, it's not going
to make natural beauty spots seem
any the less detrimental If they
are protrusive, large, too numer-
Gus or unattractively situated on
the face. Such beauty spots-or
moles, rather, for there is nothing
beautiful about THEM-are today
regarded as blemishes.
OF course, some women do pos
sess moles that really are attract

i've. Small, fiatsand pleasingly sit
uated, they add charm to the face.
But the type of moles described
above are really ugly, anS Judging
from my recent mail, a gold many
other women also regard Them as
distinct blemishes. Quito Q number
of my readers have repeatedly re-
quested that I tell them whether
or not such growths cafs be re-
moved from the face.
Proper Removal
Fortunately, 1t Is possible to re-
move ugly or dises uring moles
from the re satisfactorily, pro-
MdeS Snat a skilled person does the
work. The most eapaman]y en-
ployed method y Ey -<aesss.; Of the
electric ssssedie. The needle is
passed through the base Of the
growth a number of times, exactly
at the level of the skin, and then
passed through the growth an
equal number of times at right
angles to the first insertions.
Each time that the needle is in
serted, it liberates caIstic soda,
which destroys the blood vessels
supplying nourishment to the
growth. When the needle has been
passed through the base Of the
growth often enough to completely
destroy the blood supply, the
growth, deprived of nourishment,
shrivels and eventually drops off.
Moles can be removed from the
face most satisfactorily by this
method. But as I said before, be
sure only a thoroughly trained and
skillful person does the work. Do
not let any quack try to work on
your face, If you value your ap-
pearance, or your life. For the re-
moval of moles should be under
taken only by a skilled and relia-
BILE individual who is thoroughly
experienced In the work.

and vibrant. They are all
wearable, although they
are exceedingly individual.
Lines are slim and nodded,
with we'll marked but
plain shoulders, normal
and slightly higher waist
lines. Daytime skirts are
short and slim, evening
ones also slender except
for the trained formal
models.
Narrow skirts, too, have
higher slits than formerly,
one black dress showing
glimpses of pink knickers.
Printed Lace
The dress pictured here
is a Dilkusha model from
her London shop. It is
made of Chantilly lace
with a handbook printed
design. The sheer pattern
of the lace makes the print
especially effective and
soft. It has the slim line
and is feminine and allur-
ing, with it's velvet ribbon
sash and short peplum,
and skirt flared from
above the knees.
This is the type of dress
that may be- selected for
the holiday season and
then transplanted to the
southern resort. There are
many such flowery frocks
in the new collections.
Flowers and tiny bouquets
pinned on to silk crepe
grounds are new. A din
ner dress Of crepe satin is
particularly distinguished,
and another of fowered
velvet. Also a slim dinner
dress of black tulle allover
patterned by line checks
of fine pleatings.
New Pink
"Parlor pink" is a new
and charming color, re-
sembling cyclamen, and
used often with black or
mauve. Light crimsons,
lemon yellow, vivid green
and pale, grayish blues are
other colors much used.
Afternoon dresses are
trimmed with gold, which
gives them a certain for
mality. Pockets are placed
higher, near shoulders on
coats and jackets.

Reserve University

Reserve University
AS SOON as the baby begins to
walk, he becomes a kind of pest to
the older brother or sister who is
one or several years his senior.
Our task then is to train the
younger child not to handle the
older's things without permission
of the owner. If this training Is
effective, a great deal of needless
trouble, now and later, can be
averted. Let us parents protect
the older child from the barbarisni
of the baby. In case, however, the
baby is not nuisance to the cider
child, the latter 10 inclined to
amuse the former, even &c acac tsss
baby to participate in simple fun.
The older may, on the other hand,
employ the baby as a kind Of toy.
Although the child Of two or
three may learn much at play with
one of five or six, he hardly gains
what he could gain with another
child his own age. The youngster
of six Is benefited still less at play
with the younger child than with
another child of six.
AS a rule, the best playmate is
another child about the same age
or size; and the older the child the
more desirable it is that the play
mate be nearly his own age. The
much younger child rarely can
compete with the older; he is pro-
tected by the older and does not,
therefore, have to defend himself
by force or strategy. He, more
over, is inclined to be docile to-
ward the older, and to bully q
younger child.
Older Grows Bossy
The older tends to grow bossy
toward younger playmate and to
expect, always, to have his own
way. Consequently he lacks train
ing in competition on an equal
basis. With others his age he may
grow timid and quarrelsome, and
almost surely he will be bully.
Nor can we parents be adequate
playmates for our children. We
can and should, of course, be SYM
pathetic associates, and we can
sometimes participate in their fur; !
yet we never can quite make our
selves into a child again and prove
real playmate. Ours is to pro-
vide our children with opportunity
for normal play with those about
their own age.
Unfortunately, many a child has
no one near his home about his
age; and, with the decreasing
birth rate, this problem is increas-
ing. In case he is under six and
lacks kindergarten or nursery
school experience, it may not al
ways be easy to provide proper
playmates for him. Nevertheless,
his parents can afford to make
great sacrifices in order to bring
other children to their homes or to
go with their child to places where
there are such other children.
Rightly, some parents will rent or
hire appropriate playmates. Some
wise young mothers work out
schemes for keeping one another's
children, taking turns.

Regular Routine in
Open Air, Suited
to Age, Good
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. ID.

Dy LOOfhN SLEISDClN1lNo, We lie
THE TIME of year has como
when the great international prob
lem Of how to get exercise when
nature outside Is not favorable to
golf, tennis or walking, becomes
acute.
What percentage Of the popu-
lation HES to the gymnasium this
time Of year I have no way Of
knowing, but it must be relatively
small. For those who like 1t, it's
all right. For anybody over 45,
the sweatshirt, handball and
squash rackets are pretty much all
wrong. Under any circumstances,
the atmosphere of the gymnasium,
which Is that Of stale sweat, Is for
the few, and all Of them young.
I do not believe anybody's life Is
prolonged by exercise in gym
nasium. In my youth I did eager
ly frequent such places, and dsmy
admiration for the big-muscle boys
with the deltoid and sartorius rip
ping under the white skin, was
unbounded. But, living in a small
town where everybody knows
everybody else, have the unhappy
faculty of checking up on the
health enthusiasts, and am here
to report that the big-muscle boys
die off like flies in the fifties, or at
least, just as fast as anybody else.
However, that is not bedroom
exercising.
Regular Exercise Helpful
Mr.. Lewellys F. Barker, whose
recent book, Live Long and Be
Happy" contains a great deal Of
very sensible advice for those who
are facing middle age where, you
remember. life begins in such big
way, says, under the heading Of
Personal Habits and Longevity:
Regular exercise in the open
air, suitrd to the age, sex and oc-
cupation of the individual, is help
/
con might be disadvantageous to
another. In youth, each person
should develop skill and liking for
some special form of physical ac-
tivity that may be kept up with
pleasure and benefit in later life.
Walking, tennis, golf, handball.
swimming, horseback riding and
gardening are some Of the activi-
ties that can be pursued with adj
vantage for large part of life.
"a few gymnastic exercises be-
fore and after the morning bath
can be very helpful for persons en-
gagged in occupations that make
participation in outdoor exercise
difficult except on half-holidays or
Sundays; the exercises described
in ]. P. Muller's My System
with chart), in Dickson and Dive
leys Exercise for Health and Cor
rection', in Sanford Benefits Old
Age, It's Cause and Prevention,
and in r. T. McKenzie's Exercise
in Education and Medicine, have
been found helpful by many"
For those not inclined to bed
room exercises, recommend as a
comfortable and, to me, sound
doctrine, the one expressed in a
little book called Exercise With
out Exercises, by S. Arthur Devan.
Mr.. Devan says, "The daily dozen
in setting-up exercises are for the
most part useless. There is
another way of building up bodily
strength and vitality and shapeli-
ness, that is easier and hundred
times more effective"
We will discuss this more at
length tomorrow.
