Dear Miss Fairfax:

"Dear Miss Fairfax:
MAY / answer the young
LOthariO-I hope he's young
who wrote to your column a few
days ago? He claims to be dis
gusted with the girls he knows
when it's a mans privilege to go
with whom he pleaSes. And why
should he pick out the petting,
smoking and drinking type, if
they are not his kind?
His ideal woman, as stated In
his letter, seems to combine all
the feminine graceS, minus tObac-
co, liquor, and kisses. Did he ever
stop to think such paragon would
not relish the smell of liquor on
his breath? She may even dislike
kisses favored with stale tobacco
smoke. And, instead of necking,
she might even expected to be
amused and prefer the boy friend
to have some personality.
wouldn't it be well, Miss Fair
fax, for you to advise him to stick
to the Wild ones? A few drinks,
and they all look alike to his type.
MODEST MAIDEN"
Like this correspondent, I have
often wondered why gentlemen
with high feminine ideals en-
shrined in their hearts persist in
playing with the wild ones, and
then deploring the time wasted.

Whatever the method Of frying
used, a moderate temperature in
SureS a tenderness and moiStnesS.
The high temperature used in
browning should continue only for
short time. For some persons
the crispness on the outside is it's
chief charm.
Last week six different delicious
recipes for frying it were printed
in the favorite recipe column.
These delicious recipes contributed
by our readers brought many ideas
on novel ways of preparing the
crisp Drowned delicacy.
At certain stores, the particular
pieces desired for serving can be
purchased by the pound. The less
desirable ones like backs, wings,
etc., are much less expensive and
while they are not so tempting in
fried chicken, can be used in cas-
serole dishes with excellent results.
This recipe for deviled chicken is
adapted to their use. The hot Ger
man potato salad is to be served
with it. The recipe has been
tested in one of the thrift steam
cookers. Moist cookery is the Sc
cret of the preparation of the
chicken. The potato salad is
heated in the inset pan above the
chicken.

0NE Of the smartest belts for
" men for this autumn is of
soft, pliable leather, saddle
stitched around the edges. Fur
thermore the buckle is Of leather,
again soft and pliable but firm
enough to hold your belt in
place. It gives you just a bit
Of elasticity, which makes the
belt more comfortable when you
bend over or put any other extra
strain on it. The looks are
superlative-it's much smarter
looking than metal buckle.
It comes in black or brown at
$3.50.

Styles

There are no regrets when one
buys a good little extra dress, the
kind that seems to fit in anywhere.
Such a model is done in fine
violet crepe, with pleated ruffles
at shoulder and hem, also outlin-
ing a separate pleated cape that
can be part of the bodice.
Pick up one of the new beretS,
try it on, and the chances are that
you won't be able to resist it.
Most wearable is the draped-for-
ward sharp front silhouette. This
line is used for a beret of fine felt
in navy with two quilts in red, and
speckled beige marking the line.

any need for such things except
when they are on vacation, and
then" says Miss Wyatt, we're just
like other girls about beauty
salons"
Her hair is a beautiful rich
brown, and she wears it combed
back straight from her forehead.
One of her favorite shampooS is
the simple egg shampoo. This is
the way it is done:
2 well-beaten eggs
A half-cupful of melted soap
3 drops of ammonia
A pinch or about "a teaspoon Of
boraX
A pint Of water.
Use it as you do any shampoo.
Her nail polish is done with re-
gard to the colorS she is wearing,
and sometimes the mood she is in.
She says when one is feeling q
bit low, a good manicure and a
bright polish will clear things up
amazingly, but for general use she
likes an inconSpicuous polish, and
really wears a colorleSS one most
of the time. Nails should be mas.
saged and oiled frequently whether
or not one uses polish, she says.
One of the makeup bases that
she likes very much is a Suntan
lotion in a shade called peach
bloom. She says it is a good pow
der base, and besides, protects the
skin from the sun.
WATCHES HER DIET
She is a slender girl and does not
need to diet, but when she does
put on a pound or two too many,
she goes on a diet of orange juice
and milk. She takes a glass of this
mixture about every two hours
and keeps it up for three days.
Starches and rich foods have no
place in an actress menu, as they
are sure to put on weight, and
besides, they are fatiguing.
We asked her what she thought
was the most important requisite
for beginner in pictures, and she
tritely answered knowing how to
act"
Jane was called for her part.
and we went on to see some Of
the other girls and will tell you
about them soon.
The Washington times., 1936-09-22

She is a charming girl and a
little reserved, but one is imme-
diately impressed by her cultured
voice and manner. She was seated
in one of the very few chairs one
finds about the sets and diligently
knitting a sweater Of hydrangia
blue wool. This, by the way, seems
to be the occupation of many Of
the stars and players while they
are waiting for the sets to be
changed.
She is an Eastern girl. as so
many of the girls of the screen
are. She was educated in New
York and had that invaluable
training of an apprentice in the
Berkshire Playhouse, and later in
Eastern stock companies.
Her exceptional ability as an
actress secured her a place in
Hollywood almost Immediately, but
she has since played leading parts
in a number of Broadway success
Ses, and has done the leading
parts in THE Bishop Misbehaves, :"
"Dracula's Daughter" 1.-THE Lost
Horizon" and the well-known
Universal pictures.
FAIR SKIN
It is easy to see that her fea-
lures have been trained to por-
tray any kind Of emotion intel
ligently. Her face is well-propor-
toned and somewhat small, and
her skin is fair, but she always
wears a rather dark makeup in
the Summer months.
When she is not working, how
ever, she wears no makeup eX-
cept for evening; then she uses a
scarlet lipstick, eye makeup and
powder, but no cheek rouge.
Jane does not care for much soap
on her face, but prefers just plain
water with an occasional good
soap massage. She loves perfumed
baths and all the dainty little
compactS that girls of her type
find so fascinating. Fine perfumes
have always intrigued her, but
she uses only toilet water in the
daytime.
Facial messages are nice, she
thinks, but the constant use OF
screen makeup neceSSitateS Sc
much dreaming and oil applica.

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

ByMRS.CORNEL1 BEECkMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
"Will you please let me know
if a stOrk shower should be given
before or after the birth Of the
baby? 3D."
There isn't any rule about
whether a stork shower should be
given before or after the birth Of
the baby. Sometime it's given be-
fore the baby's birth; sometimes,
within few weeks or two months
afterward. However. since it is
best form always to consult with
the mother as to whether she
wishes a shower to be given for
her and her baby, and, if she
does, whether before or after the
birth, it is her decision that is the
determining factor.
There is, too, of course, the ele-
ment of the gifts, which are
usually of more Importance when
the layette is being assembled be-

my wife began to take more than
