Manners
of the
Moment

GONE girls have q habit Of pushing
their boy friends into corners.
And sometimes you can't help feeling
sorry for the poor fellows. They look
20 helplessly caught.
It's a neat little trick. The girl
poises herself right under a lads
chin, and then as the lad backs away
the girl inches up on him. When he
reaches the wall he's stuck, and she
has him right where she wants him.
Oh, it's extremely neat But 1t
doesn't do girl q bit Of good.
It's true that her motives may be
Of the highest. She may simply be
trying to tell rattling good story
with effectiveness. But it's going to
be hard to make the man believe that.
He can't shake of the idea that he Is
being cornered for life. And the
whole thing is likely to give him such
case Of claustrophobda that he'll
hop the next freight boat for Samoa.

Compliment
Her, It Does
w O n d e r S
She Will Strive All the
More to Improve
Her Looks.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

MEN may prefer collecting stamps,
A'A books, paintings and autographed
base balls, but there's nothing we
women like to collect more than COM
pliments. It's altogether feminine,
and delightfully."- so, think, to crave
and to thrive on compliments. The
surest way to get woman to DO more
for her good looks is to compliment
her on them. Say how clear your
eyes look" and Immediately she gets
more rest, uses an eye wash, pays par
ticular attention to her eye makeup.
Tell her that her hands are artistic
and she creams them more regularly
and manicures her nails more ire
quently Say your skin Is like .
baby's, do keep 1t that way and the
chances are she will-at least she will
make every effort to do so.
The worst way to drag a woman
down is to tell her that she looks
tired, that her hair is dull, that her
skin needs clearing Feminine psy-
chology is like that. Tell her that her
skin is badly broken out and you'll
only send her to the depths of de-
spair. But tell her that with a little
attention she could have her skin
looking like silk and that with beau
tiful complexion she would be per-
fectly stunning, and you get her to
act.
This beauty business goes farther
than We think The better We look
tho brighter our outlook. Perhaps one
reason Il the fact that we are made
happy by compliments and good looks
call forth more compliments than any
other attribute.
Spring Is the open season for COM
pliments There Is every reason for
inspiring compliments. Fashion Is
with us every inch Of the way. Such
luscious colors in costume, such BEAU
tiflI lines, such a variety of things
to choose from-things that fatter, of
course. The elements are with us,
too. Except for little temperament,
here and there, We don't have the
harsh, chill winds and the overheated
indoors to contend with. So with
little preliminary treatment to shoe
Winter souvenirs it shouldn't be diff
cult to keep the skin satin-smooth.
For the hair there are Frightening
oil treatments, reconditioning treat
ments, shampoo tint treatments that
build hair beauty almost magically,
in q very short time. A new perma-
nent will do as much for your hair
and your ego as whole new Easter
wardrobe. A new hair-do can make
. new woman, seemingly new per-
sonality of you. New makeup, by all
means. to flatter you and your new
clothes. All in all you should try
all the lovely new things the beauty
world offers for Spring, because it's
the open season for collecting COM
plimentS.

"Heads Up''
COrrectS S
7 O S t u r e
Healthy Children Are
Usually Able to Garry
Themselves Well.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

CHILDREN running about the house
usually carry themselves well
Their posture is natural and easy and
rather good than otherwise. After
they go to school and are forced to sit
so much they begin to droop forward,
hunch themselves into awkward poses,
which are bad for their growth. Par
ents and teachers begin correcting
this, reminding the children to
straighten their backs, to stand up
tall, to stand straight, and the like
It all helps.
| A very simple direction and one
that helps a great deal is the old one
Heads up" Smile when you say it,
and the heads come up, the backs
straighten, the posture improves A
| child cannot hold his head up without
| holding himself up at the same time,
and that is precisely what We want.
All Of him must go up, body and
| spirit must stand tall.
Tired children droop. Their shoul-
| ders bend forward, their heads droop
| toward their chests. They cave in at
| the middle. 1t is time they rested.
They cannot relax completely in school
so the next best thing is to have them
change their bodily and mental atti-
tudes. Heads up. Stand up tall, get
from here to there and do it rhythmi-
cally if possible.
Standing up, windows open, no
draughts, and singing jolly song Is
one very good way to restore the flag
ging spirits Of school children Even
when it is not down on the program it
should be used. Tired children cannot
learn because they cannot hold their
attention on the subject long enough
to hear it. Rest them, change their
| attitudes, freshen the air they breathe,
give them happy thought to null

chests lift, and their eyes shine again.
BY that sign you know they are ready
for work again.
have no faith in the mechanical
gymnastics for such purposes. Cor
rective gymnastics supervised by a
skilled expert are fine for the preven-
ton and cure of poor posture in those
inclined toward it, but they are OF
little use to tired school children.
They only add to the fatigue. Rhythm,
music, joyous, carefree movement
will restore them, but the rigid, "One
two," Right, Left" No.
There are some postures that are
definite signs of trouble. When q
child hoists one shoulder high, swings
one leg In a queer fashion, rotates his
hips as he walks, don't bother him
with protests about his posture, but
send him directly to the expert. Have
him thoroughly examined and train
him to do the exercises the expert ad-
vises. Don't try to correct such
defect without the advice and close
supervision of the skilled physician
lest harm be done.
Healthy children are usually able to
carry themselves well. Remind them
In their dropping hours to hold their
heads up Give them chance to relax
and sing in their periods Of depression.
But send the children who have pro-
nounced posture difficulties to the ex-
pert. Posture is important as an indi-
cation of child's mental and physical
condition. It is the outward sign Of an
inward state. It is not q separate
function Of the body, but an expression
Of its many functions. Look into It
occasionally.

He Should Stand Be-
side Her If Bus Ride
Is to Be Short.
BY EMILY POST.

I Is it considered better manners,
when there are only scattered
single seats in a bus. for a boy to
stand near the girl he is with than
for him to take a seat at some dis
tance away? Some of the boys al
ways stand nearby and there are 9TH
ers who always sit no matter where
the place happens to be. We girls
wondered whether one way was more
polite than the other.
Answer-H the distance they are
going Is short and the boy is actu-
ally accompanying her, he ought to
stand nearby. But if the distance is
very long, he would naturally sit wher-
ever there is a place
= Will you please tell us on what
occasions the much-advertised
"housecoat" of either moire or velvet,
or whatever the material happens to
be. may be worn?
Answer-Housecoats as they are il
lustrated in the fashion magazines,
would seem to be the young and mod
ern version of a teagown, which can be
worn at home at any informal after
noon tea party, or cocktail party, or
for an informal dinner when you are
not dressing in evening clothes.
Z A friend of mine is designing a
W bookplate for me, and now she
has asked how I want my name put
in, with title or just as Sara F. Smith
or perhaps using only my nickname
Sunny" Is there any proper way?
Answer-If this bookplate is to be
seriously done and you intend to use
it in your library always, and If you
are, moreover, a book-loving person,
then Sara Fielding Smith is the name
that should be put in it. On the
other hand, if you are having an
amusing and gay design, then This
book belongs to Sunny" without or
with Smith-depending on whether
any others in your group have the
same nickname) would be all right.

gether Season it with salt and
pepper and place fat side up on q
rack in an open roasting pan. Do
not cover and do not add water. Put
in moderate oven (300-350 degrees
F. and let roast at that temperature
until done. 1t requires 80 to 35
minutes per pound for roasting.
Mint sauce is frequently served with
lamb, because its flavor accents the
delicate flavor of lamb And too,
fresh mint is regarded as an early
Spring green coming at the time when
lamb was most abundant on the
market. However, due to improved
marketing conditions, lamb is avail
able all the year around, but still
mint is considered the proper accom-
panimen. For a change, instead
of serving mint sauce, the flavor
is gained by ''minting" canned pears.
These are simmered in sweetened
sirup which has been favored with
few drops of oil of peppermint.
T AMB en- brochette, or in other
words, lamb on skewers, is an
extremely practical meat dish. The
cubes of meat used for it may be cut
from any section Of the lamb, since
any part is tender and may be cooked
by broiling. Those from the shoulder
or leg are the usual choice. These are
cut one to one and half inches in
size, threaded onto skewers and cooked
in exactly the same way as are chops.
The broiling oven Is thoroughly
preheated. The skewers of meat are
placed on the broiler rack about three
inches from the flame or heating
element, if possible, or if depth of
broiler compartment does not permit
this distance, decrease the temper
ature Turn SO that all sides are
nicely Drowned.
If a very swanky meat dish is de-
sired, fancy metal skewers may be
used for the lamb en- brochette. If
these are not available or il appear
ance is not so important, the wooden
ones, which may be obtained at the
meat market, are quite all right. In
fact. lamb en- brochette, we are told,
is really an adaptation of the Near
Eastern custom of placing cubes of
lamb on green twigs and broiling them
out-of doors over the open fire in
hunter style. Since lamb was
favorite meat with those peoples, it
is not surprising that lamb still is the
meat most often used in this way.
Sometimes olives are slipped over the
ends of wooden skewers.
Frequently, sliced bacon, tomatoes,
or mushroom caps are threaded onto
the skewer with the lamb cubes to
add more variety to this meat dish.

~ EAR MISS DIX: My sister
and her husband are having
difficulties over their chill
- dren. He is high-type.
successful man, good father and de-
voted to his children. Like any father
who undertakes to keep up with chill
dren, to require them to study, to do
their chores around the house, TO live
within their allowances. ct cetera, he
occasionally has trouble with them.
Nothing serious, just the usual con-
dlct with youngsters. He handles
such matters wisely and kindly, and
in few minutes it Is all over and
the children are hanging around theD
father, for they are very fond of him.
But my sister always throws herself
into the dispute on the side of the
children, no matter whether they are
right or wrong. She protests the
fathers discipline and tries to make
them feel t t he is cruel and that
they are bel, prosecuted. Naturally,
my brotner-in-law resents his wife's
attitude. He is losing respect for her,
and can see that they have begun
to drift apart. What is your opinion,
and can You suggest remedy?
A READER.
Answer-My opinion is that your
sister is committing crime for
which she will have to pay, in all
probability, by losing her husband and
having her children grow up into
being the wild youngsters who bring
shame and sorrow on their parents.
But I have no remedy to suggest
whereby she may be brought to see
what mistake she is making Moth
ing can cure silly mother of her
Stiffness.
Unfortunately. your sister is not
alone in her folly. There are mil
lions like her. Women who are so
besotted by their mother love that
they cannot see that their children
have single fault, or bear to have
them corrected; who think that if
little Mary wants to smear jam all
over your best frock you should
let the darling amuse herself that
way, and that the neighbors are old
grumps because they object to Johnny
breaking their windows when he is in
playful mood. They are sure that
Tommy's teachers give him bad marks
because they have spite against the
little dear: that Bobby doesn't mean
anything when he is caught pilfering
oranges from the fruit stand on the
corner.

Dad Disciplines Children Justly.

their appetites. They let them grow
up overbearing, ill-mannered, dis
obedient, insulting, law unto them
selves. Then they wonder why 1t is
that their children turned out so
badly. Why they are always having
to hush up scandals and pay them
out of trouble why they are loafers,
idlers and no earthly good in the
world.
GAS you SOW so shall you reap" IS
nowhere else so inexorably true as
in the rearing of children. Bring
them up in the way they should go
and they will not depart from it once
in a thousand times. I never see a
man or woman who Is a failure in
life, who is waSter, who is a weak
ling, without knowing that he or she
was a spoiled child whose mother
ruined him or her.
We often wonder why fathers take
so little active part in rearing their
children, and why, when they see
their children ruined by foolish
mother, they don't do something to
avert the tragedy. The answer is fur
nished by such women as your sister.
Every time father tries to correct lit
tie Johnny and make Mary behave
mother rushes to their defense. A
scene ensues that leaves the child
triumphant in its naughtiness and
father and mother not on speaking
terms for days.
The man knows that his wife is
wrong; that she is fostering every
bad trait and weakness in the child's
character; that she may be depriving
it of an education and chance in the
world; that she is alternating the child
from him, making him believe that
father is cruel tyrant, who makes
him go to school when he doesn't
want to, and who won't let him have
three slices Of pie, and that mother
is his only friend. But after a few
battles royal with senseless mother
love the man gives up trying to have
any authority over the children and
sacrifices them to peace in the family
