To Retain
Light Hair
LoWly Lemon Still {
FaVorite Rinse
for Blends.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

IT Is true that Hollywood has q
great many blends who made up
their minds to make their hair q
golden hue. It Is also true that Holly
wood has more natural" blonds than
most people imagine. And these
have way Of thwa1ting nature in
her paradoxical. 1ndian-giver way Of
giving with one hand and taking with
the next.
Those graced by nature with blond
or light hair know full we'll that Is
the years grow on one. the hair has
a tendency to darken. They know
full well the trials and tribulations
Of keeping light hair light.
But it isn't an impossihility.
The blond head, like the silver head,
needs kind treatment to keep its
color. Caustic soaps are taboo Con-
slant drying with artificial heat must
be counteracted by special oil treat
ments. The marcel iron should not
be used too frequently. Brushing 4
very important for it helps to stimu-
late the circulation, keeps the scalp
and hair free from dust and CRIME
that tend to do a darkening act.
Shampoos must be extremely bland
There are many specially prepared
shampoos on the market, shampoos
that are kind enough and have as
their mission keeping blond or light
hair light"
Shampoos for blond hair may be
made at home from pure lemon soap

latter reduced to liquid or to sudl

Now we come to the oft-repeated
question, How often to shampoo
The answer Is obviously, AS often

Thorough rinsing is of utmost i'm
portance. The rinsing, to my mind
is even more important than the
shampooing because unless every bit
of soap curd is cut away the hair
cannot be really clean. And to re-

Dorothy Dix Says
Wives Rule Their Husbands and They
Can Make or Break Them.

ding is because they know that Johns
marriage ceremony may be his fu-
neral ceremony just as far as they
are concerned. and that they may be
losing him just as much as if they
were laying him in his grave.
Everything will depend upon his
wlfe's attitude and whether or not
she wants him to be friends with his
people. Otherwise she will break off
the relationship. How any man can
have his mind poisoned against the
mother whose devotion and tenderness
he has known all his life; how any
man can be separated from the
brothers and sisters whose loyalty and
help have never failed him. only the
devil knows, but he has taught tie
secret to every Jealous wife and she
can turn the trick.

N The common, everyday affairs
OF life it is the wives who inf7u-
ence their husbands, not the hus-
bands who influence their wives. 1t
Is the wives who decide where the
family shall live and in what style;
whether they shall be savers or spend
ers; whether they shall try to keep
up with the Joneses or live according
TO their income; what church they
shall go to-; what schools the chill
dren shall attend. ct cetera. Husband
has precious little say-so In the dores-
tic circle.
1t Is women who start to make over
their husbands according to their
little paper patterns as soon as they
are married. Men seldom attempt
the job Of changing their wives. Per-
haps 1t IS because men know that it
makes for peace and happiness to
take a wife "as is" instead OF trying
to change her. Maybe it is because
they know that it can't be done, and
SO do not wear themselves out at
tempting hopeless task
But, at any rate, 1T IS fact that
wives influence their husbands far
more than husbands influence their
wives. No man. for instance, can
ALLEVIATE his wife from her own people.
She will love them still and cling to
them no matter how much he dislikes
them. No big man can make . little
woman see life from his point Of
view. No intelligence Of q husband
can cure q fool woman of her folly.
AS she was born and reared . woman
stays, and her husband can no more
change her than he can the shape
! and quality Of the Rock Of Gibraltar.

up all your Summer frocks with these
inexpensive and comfortable head GOV.
erlngs.
THE less there is to your hat, the
more your hair is in evidence and
the greater the necessity for having It
in an easily manageable condition.
And right at this point we wish to say
that we have just been talking with
Mr.. Musee, right-hand man Of
famous coiffeur of Paris. Mr.. Musee,
himself an outstanding designer Of
coif1ures. is in town this week and has
some very definite ideas about all the
long bobe that Washington women are
wearing, and thinks that it is time to
make change to more trim and
shaplely hair silhouette.
Mr.. Musee advocates bringing bac
the neckline again and sounding the
death knell Of the extremely long bob.
He says that wOmer are eager for q
simple hair arrangement that is at
the same time smart and easily ke,t
in place. So much hair at the back
OF the neck Is difficult problem a.
best, and hardest to manage in Sum-
mer, and, Furthermore, is unbecoming
to large number of women who have
adopted 1t.
But don't think for a moment that
the old shingle bob is returning. The
new couture is far removed from that
extremely trying and masculine hair
cut. Instead, the hair is cut moderately
short and carefully shaped so that
you hardly notice where it starts and
where the longer hair curls or swirls
over it. In many instances 1t is
swirled up at the back and up and
on the face at the sides, but ALWAYS
varied according to individual char.
acteristics. II the neck is long and
thin the hair is left longer for fattery
where needed, and for short neck
of ample size the hair is trimmed
much closer.
Mr.. Musee says that the arrange
ment of the hair can make or ruin
woman's appearance and he designs
| coiffures with a definite relation to
the individual in order to bring out
her best points. There Is something
very refreshing about q clean cut
neckline on a hot Summer day, and
We believe that Mr. Musee is starting
trend that we are all going to like
tremendously once We have decided
to accept 1t and let those or inches
Of surplus hair fall to the floor.

This fascinating little skull cap with

last August, and has steadily grown
in importance both here and abroad,
With the result that it is replacing
the beret az the casual sort Of little

its acceptance as q real millinery

boiled linseed oil, as there are
two kinds. BY applying this
with . soft piece Of cloth you
will have good results. It will
not inture the paints in any way.

ON6IDERING that a man is
legally and technically the

most mon are hotter ed11ca ted

legally and technically the
head Of the family, and, as
most men are better educated
and have had far more worldly ex-
perience than their wives, it is q
strange thing that wives have 50
much more influence over their hus-
bands than husbands have over their
wives.
OF course, husbands will deny this.
Every man fondly believes that he is
car in his own house and that his
wife takes her opinions, her convic-
tions, her likes and dslikes from him.
It would surprise him beyond measure
to know that, instead Of his leading
the way, he is following meekly in
his wife's footsteps, and that he Is
echoing all OF her sentiments instead
Of her subscribing to his.
Nevertheless, such Is very often the
case, and when one Of married couple
dominates the other it is nearly
always the wife who rules the roost.
There are a thousand henpecked men
to where there Is one roosterpecked
woman.
WE WOULD understand it If the
women who make rubber stamps
Of their husbands were possessed Of
supernatural cleverness and cunning,
or If the husbands were dumb and
stupid or weaklings, but the most
curious feature of this whole inexplica-
bic phenomenon OF nature Is that very
often the wife who imposes the color
Of her every thought upon her hus-
band is married to a man who Is her
superior in every way and who is
noted for his independence and cour-
age in the outside world.
I knew a scientist, brilliant and
original thinker. who was broad
minded, liberal In his views on every
subject and the soul Of generosity.
He married a stupid, uncultured, mar
row, prejudiced, stingy woman, who
in less than 10 years had made him
over into her own Likeness. From
their very wedding day he began to
degenerate. She killed everything
that was fine in him and pulled him
down to her own level.
I have known tnnumerable men
whose wives influence was so great
over them that they separated them
entirely from the mothers who bore
them and the SISTERS ano brothers

MAN INJURED
IN TRUCK SPILL
Walter Carey, Pittsville, Md,
Injured Near Bishops Cor
ner Monday Afternoon
REPORT OTHER MISHAPS

A truck owned and operated by
Albino Nero, Of Laurel, overturned
near Bishops Corner late Monday
afternoon. The driver said he ran
off the edge of the road and in en-
deavoring to pull back on the road,
the truck went out of control and
was overturned in the ditch. The
truck was loaded with cantaloupes
which were thought to have shift
ed, causing the truck to become
overbalanced. Walter Carey, age
AZ, of Pittsville, Md, riding in the
truck, was injured and removed to
the Kent General Hospital, Dover.
1t was learned at the hospital that
his condition is good, but that he
will be there for several days until
the extent of his injuries are de-
termined. A State Highway own
ed truck, operated by Robert w.
Vinson, 35 years of age, collided
with a car at the intersection of
the highways just north of Silver
Lake, Dover, Monday afternoon.
The car was driven by Leo D. Har-
rison, of 11O1 Argyle Avenue, Bal
timore, Md. The damage was very
slight to both vehicles. Joseph En-
gel, age So, of the Black Cat, State
Road, driving east on Dover Green,
collided with another car going
north on State Street. The driver
of the second car was Andrew
Price, colored, of Queen Street,
Dover. Damage to the Engel car
was estimated at $1S5 and to the
