Of humor, they frequently hide sand

fact that they knew no better, but
the strange thing is that they are the
children of our so-called best people :"
They have had every advantage of as
sociation and education and their
fathers and mothers would be incap-

Yet the parents must be to blame
because, after all, our conduct reflects
our upbringing. We do instinctively

cradles, and if we have the manners
Of ladies and gentlemen inculcated in
us in our early youth they are just
an integral part of us. We can no
more shed them than we can our skins.
Boys and girls who have been

Manners
of the
Moment

THE girl who goes tripping down
or dashing up an escalator should
be kept under lock and key until she
learns better manners. She's not only
a menace to safety, she's a menace
to recovery. Just as you get yourself
settled on q step prepared to watch
the bargain counters from above,
along she comes, with that determined
air of hers, and you completely lose
track of your bargains. It's the limit.
And If you're tired, and taking q
little rest by leaning your arm or your
bundle on the railing, does she leave
you in peace? Oh, no. She believes
In getting ahead.
Down with girls who want to get
ahead, we say. Epecially on escala-
tors. Let them take elevators. And
II they must take escalators, let them
learn what they are for. II you're

to teach their children to
be ladies and gentlemen, and behave
like ladies and gentlemen?
In former times there was code
to which gentlefolk subscribed and
certain things which simply were not
done by those who moved in polite
society. Peoples morals may not
have been above reproach, but their
manners were impeccable. A man
might have stolen your daughter. but
he would have been incapable of pur-
loining your silver. A woman might
have ruined your reputation with her
gossip, but she would never have
smeared lipstick all over your best
guest towels.
In those halcyon days no tradition
was more binding than respect for
hospitality. 1t was held to be an
honor to be invited to be guest in q
home, and primarily that the least one
could do in decency was to accept an
invitation or refuse 1t definitely at the
time, so as to leave q hostess in no
doubt as to whether to expect one or
not. Once accepted, it was held OBJ
ligatory to 60 promptly at the time
specified in the invitation. Such
stress was laid on this elementary
principle of consideration for the one
who was giving the party, that it was
said that nothing but death excused
one for breaking dinner engagement.
and even then one should send his
executor in his stead.
4 ND being at a party it was taken
as a matter of course that a guest
would do his part to make the evening
a success; that he would dance with
the wallflowers, talk to the dumb, eat
what was set before him and other
wise conduct himself as . civilized
human being.
Nobody ever dreamed of q state of
society outside Of the slums where the
guests would walk out on q party II
the punch was not strong enough, nor
the cocktails plentiful enough, nor
If the music wasn't sufficiently jazzy.
Nor could anybody have imagined any
young people of respectable parentage
wrecking a beautiful dinner by throw
ing food at each other across the table
and demonstrating how strong they
were by bending the forks and spoons
into fantastic shapes.
Yet such, alas, are the manners OF
the youth of today. When q hostess
gives a party half of her guests will
not even bother to accept or decline
the invitation. Even after accepting
they may not come. or they may come
with half q dozen of their pals who
were not invited. Even the guest Of
honor at q party is likely to stroll in
an hour late after the party has gone
rs fiat as the souffle. II somebody
else Is giving party that Is more ex-
citing and where there is more to
drink, the youngsters think nothing
Of quitting their hostess cold and
rushing Oh In q body to where there
Is more gayety.

Flower Arrangement.

II you don't expect to change the
water in your arrangement as often
as necessary, put few pieces OF
charcoal in the bowl; they will assist
In keeping it sweet.
A pompon chrysanthemum is the
most brilliant of all boutonnieres.
Both men and women wear 1t.
Silver and china service is often
times austere when laid out for a
special occasion. To soften the ap-
pearance Of the table, place single
pink carnation in a tiny container at
each place.
Select your flowers for the gown
you are to wear, and not for the occa-
sion. Tell your florist about what
you want and just when and with
what you expect to wear the flowers;
he'll do the rest.

Careful Use
Of MAKEUP
Important t
Color Harmony Is
Stressed by Cos
meticians.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

THE hue and cry seems to be more
- color in our lives" Color gives
our homes character, color gives our
clothes spirit, color gives our hair a
spark-light, life. Color Is as neces-
sary for our faces to define the fea-
lures, to accent mouth and eyes and
the high lights Of the face.
With all this new color interest in
clothes, discreet use Of makeup be-
comes increasingly important. If you
use too little makeup the color Of
your costume will dominate you. If
you use too much 1t is worse than
none at all. There's something very
undesirable in the saying, You can
hear her coming, she looks so loud"
The wise woman uses color as in
telligently as she uses her head. She
applies all the time-tested theories.
She works for color harmony, above
oil things.
And color harmony is not as vague
q term as it sounds. The basic color
in cheeks and lips is the same.
Naturally. Your choice of rouge and
lipstick should be made with an eye
on your natural coloring. And an
eve on the harmony between cheek
and lip makeup. Your lipstick may
be little more vivid than your cheek
makeup, but the basic color tone
should be the same. If cheek rouge
Is orange in tone, lip rouge should be
orange, too. If one is blue-red or
dusky rose the other should har-
monte.
Color harmony between skin and
powder is another essential A pow
der that is too dark may make the
skin look sullen and sallow A pow
der that is too light. on the other
hand, will show up all imperfections,
emphasizing them. What is more, the
light powder on the darker skin gives
anything but groomed, clean look.
Color harmony is being carried
further. A tie-up between lips and
fingertips. Between jewels and eye
shadow Between makeup and cos
tune shades. These are finer points,
however, and one has to master many
other tricks before attempting them.
You know you have achieved true
color harmony and a successful effect
in makeup when the whole picture
Is one of lovelinesS, when you do not
notice the rouge or lipstick or powder
In itself but do notice the blend OF
color that makes the whole picture
that emphasizes and enhances your
features and you. The cosmetics
themselves should not be noticed, the
effect should. To great extent this
Is achieved by careful application
and blending so that there are no
sharp lines of demarkation. More
about this in another session, but the
first step is proper selection of COS
metics that harmonic with you.

A REAL success story comes from a
girl from Tennessee story that
is actually true because we heard it
from the lips of the girl herself when
she was here in town last week. The
story is about a large and unsightly
birthmark covering the lower part of
the face and neck, and its effect in
the life of this girl. During her early
school days she was subjected to the
haunting remarks of her classmates,
who called her "red face" She WINGED
when she encountered new associates.
Struggling along through those years
she became more reconciled to her lot.
but never able to take her place in the
Evening star., 1936-11-16

world on an equal footing with others.
She tried innumerable skin specialists
and sought the advice of plastic sur
geons. but no hope was held out to her.
Finally one day, within the cur
rent year, she read Of a cream made
expressly for concealing blemishes
that sounded so like magic to her
that she could hardly wait to find
out more about it. She wrote and
wrote, and 1t finally took almost
month before she was able to obtain
a jar of this cream and try it for
herself. But there was magic in that
lar. for she was able to completely
disguise that birthmark, and for the
first time in her life had her picture
taken.
Immediately her whole life was
changed. She was a new person
from that moment and was so en-
thusiastic about it, that upon receipt
of her letter of grateful appreciation,
the creator of this cream Immediately
invited this Southern girl to New
York to visit her at her expense!
Now she goes from city to city and
spreads the news of this miracle
worker to all who suffer from skin
blemishes of any sort.
Such a living example Of what this
cream will do is perfectly amazing,
for I would never have guessed that
this girl was hiding any sort of
blemish under her makeup, and the
cream Is not new to me either!
THERE is a small beauty kit that
We have wanted to tell you about
for some time. Its preparations are
all made in Washington by the same
firm who makes the hand lotion that
we mentioned recently. We are told
that the contents are of the purest
and best There is a cleansing and
a tissue cream with skin freshener to
be used to remove the last vestiges
of the cleansing cream. and with these
a delicate soft face powder of ex-
cellent quality. The tissue cream Is
particularly effective. The container
Is a box striped in silver and black
and you will find it in 16 Of Washing
tons smaller shops. There is prob
ably one in your neighborhood as they
are widely scattered over the city.
Patronize the home talent and try
out this one for yourself.
Does the first bit of cold weather
have a bad effect on your skin and
make your face feel terribly dry? If
so. we know of splendid cream made
just for the purpose of overcoming
Skin drought" It is skin restorer
and reconditioner Of almost uncanny
effectiveness. Its rich, natural oils
are perfectly blended to meet dry skin
requirements and are easily and COM
pletely absorbed. This cream feeds
the skin like veritable mamma. It is
rather expensive, but little goes q
long way, and will reward you amply
in even two weeks Of careful treat
ment.
This cream belongs to family Of
cosmetics that Is one of the oldest
complete scientific treatment lines.
Originally it was reserved for q rather
limited group of fastidious women,
but today it is within the reach Of all
women. The oils contained in these
products are said to be true vegetable
oils, similar to the oil manufactured

MY Neighbor Says:

Don't throw away azalea plants
after the flowers are faded. If
kept until warm weather and
then plunged in q half-shaded
spot in the garden the plants will
bloom well for several seasons.
Trimming must be done, though,
as soon rs the flowers have drop
ped, for the plants begin at once
to make their buds for the next
season.
Always keep q pail of sand near
the furnace in your cellar.
Should spark light on a broom
or papers left near furnace, fire
may be quickly extinguished with
sand.
An old inner tube cut in strips
and nailed to the bottom of gar
age door will keep out drifting
snow and rain. Cut long enough
to cover space between door and
floor.
Wash WOODEN stockings in luke
