Beauty
Choose Right
COIOrs
BY HELEN FOLLETT

The best color for the girl with
hazel eyes, clear skin and dark
hair is green. She can also wear
navy blue; beige is suitable. too.
Printed silks and cottons are DE-
coming to all types, though one
must be mindful of predominating
tones. It is a season of gay hueS,
and that's grand. A drab frock
makes any woman look drab: and
a suggestion of the rainbow makes
her vivid and alive.
Get color-wise, members of the
beauty class. Seek shades that
are flattering. When selecting a
frock, fold portion around your
neck and shoulders. and note the
effect upon complexion, eyes and
hair.
Corns, callouSes and bunions are
evidences of foot weakness. Con-
ditions are not normal or these
growthS and defects would not ap-
pear. The trotterS are not prop
erly housed. Shoes are too short
or too narrow or not suitable for
the contour of the foot.
Listen to what the shoe clerk
has to say. Few women do that.
They have fixed ideas as to the
style of shoes. they want. Go to a
shop that has an Xray machine
so you can see the position of the
toes when the shoe is worn.
Do you do your body twisting
regularly? You should. 1t is an
insurance against a thickened
waistline and spreading hips.
Stand tall, hands above the
head, turn the body from side to
side until there are m use e
twinges. Keep the legs rigid.
Don't move the hips.
Never use cold water on a dry
complexion. Hot water isn't de-
sirable, either. Use tepid water
and the blandest soap that can
be found.
The sudsy cleansings should be
limited to one a day. At other
times use an oil or a Inln cream.
Before going to bed friction with
a heavy emollient. let it remain
on overnight. Put more butter
on your bread.
Don't make a haphaZard selec-
ton when shopping for a hair-col-
oring agent. Go to a beauty shop
for professional advice. A dye
that will turn the happy trick for
one head of hair will be fatal to
the next.
Realize, too, that there must be
touch-ups just so often. Gray
shafts push out from the scalp
to the extent of one inch every
two or three months.
Have you any beauty problems?
Let the Beauty Box Editor help
you solve them. Address all in
quirieS regarding beauty to the

FOR GOLF or tennis, you
must have cool clothes that
are entirely comfortable, and
here they are - of peasant
cloth. It is about the cool
est fabric you can find, light
weight and porous, and men
say that they begin to cool
off the minute they put on
shirt and trousers of the
cloth. If there's a stray
breeze, it gets through. The
fabric is in a plain crash
weave, shown in the shirt
photographed, and in a
wave" pattern, shown in the
Stacks, a light Stub making
the wave. It comes in natural
linen color, and in shorts as
well as Stacks and shirts. The
shorts are favorites with
tennis players and for the
beach, and Stacks are popu-
lar for golf. For the name

GIRL AND BOSS"

Dear Miss Fairfax:
my boss is married, but has no
children. His wife is an invalid and
lives in distant State. He is fiji
teen years older than 1 am.
my problem is that the boss
sometimes insists on my having
lunch or dinner with him, at quiet
restaurant or night club. have
been doing this, because am afraid
that it would endanger my job if
1 didn't go, and 1 have to support
myself, as my parents are dead.
$50 far, we have had a jolly time
together, neither of us taking the
situation seriously. Shall / con-
tinue to go out with him, look for
another job, or what?
SALLY"
Every angle of the Girl and
Boss situation was discussed in
this column some months ago. and
I think it was pretty generally
agreed, from scores of letters
which come from all over the
country, that a man who would
fire a girl because she declined
to have lunch or dinner with him
was an unmitigated cad. No ca
pable girl would put up with such
high-handed tactics as "eat with
me or be fired"
If these luncheonS and dinners
are just casual affairs. which, as
you tell me, are not taken seri-
ously by either party, well and
good. But to be seen frequently
at a night club or a restaurant
with ones boss, is bound to cause
talk.

BEAUTY-SHOP TIP
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Twill you kindly tell me If it IS
proper to tip the owner of a beauty
parlor if she personally serves
you? In the place l patroniZe, the
owner works equally with the
operators.
Sometimes she will shampoo
and let the operator set the hair,
or vice versa. l have noticed that
she accepts a tip when it is offered
to her.
81 would like your opinion as
to whether a 15-cent tip is Suf-
ficient for the service of two items
totaIing one dollar? "R."
Whether or not we give fee
to the owner-operator of beauty
shop depends on the custom of
that shop. And apparently the
custom of this shop of which you
write is for the owner to accept
a fee. So when in Rome ...

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Ever since the first time met
him, 1 can't get him off my mind,
and that was three years ago.
We've never had much to say to
each other, except on my vacation,
where we happened to be at the
same place. But he has never fol
lowed it up, and when he sees me,
passes with hello
Lately, I've seen him at some
dances, but he never asks me to
dance. When the girls have a turn
of cutting in would you advise
me to tap him for a dance? 1 feel
rather sensitive about doing that,
as he has never invited me to
dance with him. ~. v. F."
Why not cut in, so long as the
other girls do this and tap the
waiting stays? The important
question in my mind is, are you a
good dancer? Boys are very re-
luctant to ask girls to dance, if
they don't dance well. In fact, I've
heard them refer to it as putting
away ton of coal" If you dance
well, cut in by all means.
