of them must be unbalanced, they think.
 Admire Straight Thinking
 Not at all. Many girls find an affinity in the straight thinking and sportiveness or the opposite sex. They often find other girls too easy to beat, if they them. selves are outstanding in strength and speed. There may be a Ros- alind now and then who fools no- body but herself, and thinks 1t . grand lark to be one of the fel- lows, but at heart she is still on the other side of the fence and is acting out of cast.
 Your true tomboy, who spends her days with Tom and Ben and Charlie, taking her turn beach, ing the heavy canoe, or getting up at four to help corral the cavy, is going through most normal and healthful (emotionaily speak. ing) term of existence. There is no reason in the world why any. one should look over her glasses, and mention what was not done in "her day"
 The tomboy is not sexlesS, nor is she rough. She is usually frank and direct, and above all honest. I have noticed this in 50 many cases that I think I shall make 1t unanimous. She may offend her sisters by saying that she likes boys better than girls. but in speaking thus, she is talking about the male viewpoint and way of doing things, rather than personal attraction.
 Develops Understanding
 It is hard for the less inde- pendent woman to understand, or girl either. She prefers to keep the bars tip and be the eternal feminine. This attitude wont help her much when she has to get out and hustle in the bust. ness or professional world. Then she will either have to learn the give and take of the sexes, or cry her eyes out every other night because someone has forgotten to be kind. Too bad, but true.
 do not think that the tomboy will sacrifice any true femininitv or gentleness by consorting with her buddies. Tn fact, am cer. tain that the true woman never can change to this extent. By q little rough roing in her girlhood, the wife and mother comes to un. derstand boy and man nature bet. ter; to sympathize where other wise she might Dc puzzled and impatient.

? Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

No longer do the gossips shake their heads when Nellie rides astride her horse, nor do they lower their eyes when she comes out to play tennis in shorts. Sum- mer girls possess two legs, all are aware now, and are proud of 1t.
 You couldn't drop a hat be- tween the activities of girls and boys camps these days. They swim and hike and play ball. They row and paddle and gallop horses. No one would think of calling these vigorous young valkyries tmoboys. They aren't, because there are no tomboys any more.
 However, old Madame Grundy, fearful of losing her job, still has something to say. Just let e girl find better comrades among boys, go on 6 ball team with them, or even captain 1t, as in one case, and this is something else again. The ladies, some of them, think this is odd and that this whist. ling Thomasina will surely come to some bad end. It is ali right for 6 girl to play masculine games with her own pals, but to enter into the male world as one

.BEAUTXs--..'.'''-'---'''''''''-''''. Glorifying
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Staff Writer

 How to get rid of a coat of sum- tan and make skin as smooth and petal-like as 1t was in June before you went native are the very first beauty problems of fall. Anyone can see for herself that suntan isn't very friendly toward those suave black and dark rich colored dresses which have replaced prints and pas tels.
 You might, for a few weeks sub- stitute lemon cleansing cream for your regular cleanser. Or use a lemon lotion frequently.
 Among the homemade bleaches (and these, if used correctly, won't irritate even the most tender com. plexion) are cucumber juice and to- mato juice. If you choose the lat- ter simply wash face with soap and water, pat on cool tomato juice and let dry. Apply another layer, let this dry, too, then rinse of with cool water. Smooth on rich night cream and go to bed. If skin is especially oily, omit the night cream and use one of the medicated pore pastes.
 A cucumber mask is almost as simple to use. Slice small cucum- Der in a bowl, place the paringS on top of the slices, cover with water and let stand for four hours. After thorough cleansing, pat face and throat with the cucumber juice liquid, place strips of moist peelings across forehead, cheeks, chin and throat and cover with a clean piece of cotton gauge, which has been dipped in the juice and squeezed as dry as possible. Now lie down for twenty minutes. Then remove cloth and parings and rinse skin with ice water.
 Do not use any bleach which claims to remove freckles and make your skin lily white overnight. Tn the first place, such claims are the height of overstatement. Anyway, any preparation which could re- move freckles and tan 50 quickly would more than likely be strong enough to remove your skin as well as your freckles.
 NEXT: Foundation preparations.

SNGA SSEVACS CN1A VEltSE Ham prices have leaped to the moon. But we can do something about 1t. Use a little less ham and . little more of cheaper foods to- gether. The result-ham on the menu and still some money In the bank.

MORE DIETETIC BREvITIEs

MORE D1ETET1C BNEV1T1ES
 Olive oil, butter, animal fats, cream, bran, yolk of egg in the diet favor drainage of the gallbladder and gallducts in case you have gallstones or chronic cholecystitis. But wait Q minute. These same foods tend to increase pain from contractions of the gallbladder if you are subject to collie. This is all l can tell about 1t. In general, one with chronic gallbladder trouble, with or without gallstones, should include a liberal variety of fresh vegetables, fresh fruits and reason- able amounts of oils or fats in the diet. There is no reason to imagine oils or fats cause or aggravate the trouble, except as above explained. Nor is there any foundation for the quack notion that huge doses of oil can or will dissolve" or elim- mate gallstones in any case. The individual with chronic gallbladder trouble should drink plenty of wa ter, before meals, with meals, be- tween meals.
 Water with meals unnecessarily worries many valetudinarians. The invalid should be guided by his physicians advice, but normal per. sons may take a drink of water as cold as they like whenever they feel thirsty. A glass of cold water just before a meal tends to improve digestion. especially If one is at all thirsty. Generally, the only health rule that applies is that water or other beverage should be taken as beverage, never to wash down morsels of food. Eat when you eat and drink when you drink. No dunking allowed.
 The American breakfast, if 1t in- cludes any ready-to-eat or home cooked cereal, is all right If there is no toast, roll, bread, cake, waffle or other carbohydrate course in ad- dition to the dish of cereal. The breakfast is all right, I mean, if the coffee isn't ruined. If you can smell the coffee before 1t is served, 1t is ruined-it has been permitted to boil. Breakfast isn't breakfast without coffee. Don't bother me with your silly questions about nerves.
 Popular idea that hot meals are better for health than cold meals. Nothing in 1t. I'm telling, not ar- guing.
 Canned food fit to eat when the can is first opened is still 1t to eat next day if 1t stands in the can- 1t keeps as well and remains as wholesome in the can as 1t would in any other container. Any sugges- ton to the contrary is an alibi for poor food.
 If you crave ice cream after lobster, don't let any long-faced wretch persuade you to forego the pleasure. Any conceivable mixture or combination of foods one fan- cies is perfectly healthful.
 There is 50 much nutriment in an egg, and 1t matters little how you prefer egg cooked. Suit your own taste always. Raw eggs are not 50 completely digestible as cooked eggs: some of the albumen of raw egg is likely to pass through the alimentary tract undigested; hence raw egg, if anything, Is less noufishing or strengthening" than egg cooked as you like. Meat well done is at least as easily digestible as rare meat. Suit your own pref erence about that, too, provided the meat does not contain trichina or tapeworm larvae. Thorough cook. ing is the best safeguard against that.
