v of her as of a summer rain. Your admiration is never jared by seeing her any other way.
 She may manage a large house without any help or she may be free to spend each day as she chooses, but whatever she does, she does easily. Things never seem to push her. You are never conscious that small worries have taken her mind over for their own confusion. She knows how to handle little things.
 Her house isn't a whatnot for knicknacks. There seems to be a reason for the things that are there. The rooms hold comfort and quiet ness and beauty.
 She gives her hospitality with out f-consciousness. All the while that you are in her house you feel your being there is causing her no trouble.
 You can know her long time without ever seeing too deeply into her life. She doesn't talk casually about the things that touch her closely.
 She meets life with courage and gentleness. There is no flippancy about the things that really matter to her.
 In all her plans she puts her hus- bands happiness before her own. For she is wise enough to know that a woman's happiness is almost al- ways dependent on her success at making some man content.
 Perhaps she sounds oldtfashioned to you. But what is the use in a woman's pretending to be modern? Women don't change like styles. The best they can do is pretend to change. Or maybe she seems too good to be true. There really are women like her, taking life slowly and getting everything 1t holds. Peace and love and respect-and the joy of being necessary to someone besides themselves. Women who remember always that they are wo- men and that men expect them to live gracefully.

BEAUTY
.BEAUTXs------' Gl0riying

BUSINESS GIRLS JOB INCLUDES BEING NEAT
By Alicia Hart

A neat little makeup kit, contain ing cleanser, foundation lotion, cream rouge, powder, but of mas cara, is something every smart young business woman should have in her desk. Large enough to hold the es- sentials, but not so large that she Is embarrassed to carry 1t to .the washroom, such kit means the dif- ference between being perfectly groomed and haphazardly groomed during a working day.
 Add to the kit box of cleansing tissues (these have dozen uses) |, tiny bottles of polish remover and nail lacquer, an emery board, good mirror, 8 full size comb and nail white pencil and beauty problems in the office become definitely simpler. No executive wants to see you put ting on makeup at your desk, but neither does he like grayish cheeks, faded lips and struggling hair. He wants you to be attractive, but he doesn't want to know how you got that way.
 One efficient young secretary keeps all of her beauty items in medium size box in the top drawer of her desk. In the middle of the morning and once during the afternoon, she combs her hair, applies a fresh coat of lipstick and speck or two ot face powder.
 Before she goes to lunch, she really does a complete makeup job Cleansing lotion removes all stale makeup, dust and dirt. On goes new foundation, cream rouge, powder and lipstick. If she is going straight from work to a tea or dinner, she does second makeup job after five. Otherwise, she touches up her lips, powders her nose and goes home to bathe and freshen up before dinner.
 One night aweek she stays at home. presses her dresses, waches underwear, stockings, gloves, gives herself a fine facial from special cleansing to mask and tonic, and goes to bed early.

Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

next ten years, these same parents will be laying down the law about the behavior of these young folk. You must never tack Q drink, or play cards for money. You will break our hearts if you make fast and lose with love- And a terrible fear will hang over them lest some thing happen to these beloved chil- dren of theirs, whom they cherish more than anything else in the world.
 The harm lies in breaking down inhibitions early in the child's life. Inhibitions are made by slow and steady building up of thought so that it becomes secon dnature Ex- ample is a powerful ally and a pow erful enemy, particularly, the ex. ample of parents or loved ones
 While I dislike prude, and recom- mend ingraining 8 broad tolerance, stil~ lthe truth remains and we can- not expect to find in our children later, much defense against the things they learned to accept so easily in their growing years. Il is something to think about. Will they feel entitled someday to do the same as mother and daddy, at a green ge when they are unready to cope with temptation2 .~~,

PARENTS

Should young children be present present when parents give what is spoken of as a wild party? It is a general term meaning almost any, thing, from playing bridge for stakes of fortieth ana slipping a mild cocktail, to any old kind of orgy you want to name.
 The answer, naturally, is mo-, but some parents have apeculiar psychology about the training of their offspring. They will declare, and mean it seriously, thatt heir boys and girl are not to be brought up blindly, but must know what life is all about. ,,.
 Fortunately, these sentiments are not shared by many, as the educa- .tion fo rife, independent of morals, must be attuned to a child,s readi- ness to understand. Otherwise he gets warped view and the results are tragic.
 But let us now come down to the everyday home with more or less sensible parents who think that their social life is entirel yremoved from that of their children, and that the latter are having their sup per, then going to bed in utter ig- norance, while they are making a night of 1t at party. Or that the youngsters tucked in so snugly over- head arc. dreaming of lollypops. while the shakers and laughter get louder and louder with the hours.
 Nine times out of ten the chil- dren know all about 1t. They are curious and smart. They will know almost exactly just who had too much" and even whisper to each other that MT. Smith kissed Mrs. Jones in the hall. They will know that Uncle Mack won five dollars pitching dice after dinner in the library. They will know plenty. Breaking Down Inhibitions
 at Early Age is Dangerous
 Their parents will declare that 1t was a perfectly innocent party, and except for their early hours, the youngsters might as well have been present for all the harm that went on. It was onl yfun and play, and Billy and Mary knew this as well as anybody.
 But this is not the point. For the
