the happy event of her marriage
may be a considerable" present,
if the bride is well-to-do, or it
may be some modest remem-

careful budget.
Formerly, brides made a great
point of giving presents that
could be worn by the attendants
on the day of the wedding, and
these were usually monogrammeo.
Sometimes even lockets were
given with the date of the we'd
ding. and the monogramS or last
initials of the bride and groom
were engraved on them.
But now there are several STOCK
presents that are most often given;
bracelets and novelty vanity cases

given; a wrist watch, chain OF

Yes, I think it would be lovely
to invite the young man down for

NO EXCUSE
Dear Miss Fairfax:

OeaE M1SS E6AEAdAS
Looking 1t ever from the be
ginning, 1 think my wife did most
of the counting. She's three years
older than 1 am, and I can't deny
that she has been a. very good
wife, economical, faithful and a
good mother to our two children.
Agreed. But a man Of my type
can't remain devoted to one wOm-
an any more than he could eat
chicken every day in the year and
not get tired of it.
81 have fallen in love with
another girl. I want my wife to
divorce me so / can marry this
young lady, who is lovely and in
teresting, and could help me on
with my career. My wife absO-
lutely declines to do this. Is there
any way in which a woman can
be forced into getting . divorce
without reSOrting to anything like
false testimony?
''WANTS-TO.BE.FREE."
You've come to the wrong per-
son for counsel, my dear sir, and,
short of perjury, there is no way
of cutting the matrimonial bonds
from a wife such as you describe.
You tell me a man couldn't eat a
steady diet Of chicken every day
in the year without becoming tired
of it. Why do you think he'd have
any better luck with a steady diet
of goose?
unless a man is an utter piker,
he knows there is no excuse for
wanting to quit his obligations to
his young children. when ire
action" sets in after the first
glamour of marriage. Doubtless
you'd ask this good wife, Of whom
you seem so unappreciative, to
take you back before six months
had passed.

Beauty
Summer Care
OfHair
By HELEN FOLLETT

Hair loves the air. 1t thrives
on sunlight. When motoring in
an open car, let your locks "sing
and dance" Every night fluff up
the finger wave with your finger
tips, rubbing them along the
scalp. Setting lotions pack down
the tresses. They get tired OF
that and want holiday.
Select hats of straw or light
fabrics that afford ventilation.
Felt chapeaux keep the scalp too
warm. The result is that per-
spiration and sebaceous glands
work overtime and the hair be-
comes loaded with oil and salty
deposits that make it look blowsy.
Also the finger wave gets worn out
before its term Of service is fin
ished.
Shampoo your glorious crest
every two weeks. 1t is the worlds
busiest dust catcher.
Roll those hips away if yours
are a bit too large. Get down on
the floor, keep the hands close to
the thighs and roll over and over.
Fat cells can't stand disturb
ances. Rolling strengthens the
muscles, and strong fibers will
not tolerate adipose tissues.
Twisting at the waistline has a
slenderizing influence upon the
feminine shape.
Since compilations change with
the seasons, there are new rougeS
and Iipsticks being offered. AS the
skin turns taWny, more vivid tintS
can be used.
See that rouge and lipstick are
on amiable color terms. And please
note the shade of powder you use.
1t ought to be fairly dark If the
skin has bronzed.
Some of the sweet, young girls
think it's smart to look bored.
That's a grave mistake if they
wish to belong to the marchers
that are on their way to beauty
dom. 1t makes the mouth look
hard and takes the CLINT from
the eyes.
There's close bond between
mind and body. What goes on
in the head comes out on the
face. Charming young women
are those who have smiles on
tap. Smiles keep the muscles
around the mouth firm. When
the lip ends are pulled down.
small muscles become soft and
lose elasticity.
Have you any beauty prob.
lens? Let the Beauty Box Edi-
tor help you solve them. Ad,
, dress all inquiries regarding
I beauty to the Editor of the
Beauty Box, care of The Wash

Famous Authority on Problems
of Lone and Marriage
Dear Miss fairfax:
"At home have no more rights

10 years Of age. If 1 want to 90
somewhere, even twice q week,
it's a battle. Pm in love with q
corporal in the Army, and my
mother does not approve and has
tried to break us up many times.
Il have announced my engage
ment but mother declines to con-
sent. My mother and father are
miSmated and l am the child of

"There are several more Of us
who are war babies and we'd

unhappy home and start out for
myself? 1t may be hard, but 1

WAR BABY"
wish it were possible for me
to give your letter in full, but
that's out Of the question. If you
young people who are war babies"
want to get up a club, it would be
an excellent idea. But let me
try to persuade you, with all the
vehemence at my command, not
to call yourself war babies"
Why stress that fact, when lille
gitimacy is no longer emphasized
in law? Governor Lehman of
New York has taken the bar sin
lister off birth certificates, and the
Scandinavian countries did this
many years ago. 1t is sheer NOR
bidity on the part of you young
sters to try and emphasize any
irregularity of birth.
AS you seem so desperately un-
happy at home, and you and your
mother disagree on every subject.
it would be well, I think, to marry
the corporal.

SECOND MARRIAGE

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
II am a divorce and am going

to have a church wedding, not q
formal one. Would this be proper?
was not married in church at
my first marriage.
"If it would be proper for me
to be married in church, please
tell me the proper dress / should
wear. Should there be any At
tendants? Would it be proper to
have my little girl as flower
girl? "H."
If your church denomination
permits the marriage of a oil
vorced person in the church 1t
is proper for you to have q
church wedding.
Often a marriage Of this kind
takes place in a chapel OF the
church, or informally in the
church itself, or in the brides
home, or in a registry. The plans
for your second marriage should
be simple, informal and unobtru
Sive.
You will not, Of course, wear q
white gown and veil. If you are
married in church or in a chapel
or in your own home, you may
wear formal afternoon dress
with a hat, and If you are mar
ried in the registry, you will up
propriately wear q travelling
costume.
You need have no attendants
or you may have one attendant
1t is not good taste for you to oe
attended by q child Of your frs

For two or three seasons we've
seen pictures Of the beach clothes
that Paris has shown, harem
skirts, plus fours and other types
Of drawn.in pants or skirts. They
were too new and strange to be
taken seriously, but they have per
sisted. Many Of the smartest
women in Europe have been wear
ing them. They have been re-
peated in the collections at the
couturiers, and so they seem to
be launched.
LONGER TYPE
Just today a picture comes in
from Paris Of real plus tours, worn
on the beach. They are of heavy
white linen, with a royal blue
stripe down the side. At the top
is a mere halter, but over that, a
bolero of the blue linen. The
costume is rather attractive.
strange as it may seem to us.
Closer home, we have a picture
of beauteous Virginia Bruce play
ing tennis in Hollywood. She's
wearing boomers about the same
length and fullness as shorts, but
boomers nevertheless. The an
swer is, no doubt, that she feels
more free to run about in them.
Hers are Of linen, too, with a linen
shirt at the top. They look slim
and neat, and nearly as well tall
ored as shorts would look.
ROMPER SUITS
Here on the Atlantic the bloomer
vogue has taken the form of rornp-
ers. You will find a good many
romper type play suits in the
stores, and they are being bought
for beach wear and any rough-and-
tumble or active sports. They've
been worn for a long time by
dancers for practice hours and re-
hearsalS, and now they seem to be
coming out into the open.
Most of these romper suits are
of cotton, often printed, and they
are the most informal things YOU
can find. That doesn't cut down
on their popularity at all, for
women feel that they can put
them on for a sun bath or for sit
ting around a beach cottage, and
have the utmost in comfort.
OF COTTON PRINTS
You can wear anything you like.
at the top of rompers. Sometimes
they come with kerchief or halter
top, sometimes with a skirt. They
are made with moderate fullneSS,
but not real width, such as bloom
ers used to have. They give you
little-girl look if you're slim, and if
you're not, you'd better be careful
about wearing them.
The French type is bit more
dignified, particularly the plus
tours, and so are worn by really
smart women at fashionable re-
sorts. They are not to be con-
fused with "knickerS," which we
wore in this country many years
ago, and they are no more apt to
make us stop wearing skirts than
are Stacks or shorts, which we like
also, but reserve for the beach or
sports.

Villas SNDJSNN'
Coming from a State famed for
its lakes and fishing he has en-,
loved this sport for NUMBER OF
years. but his first fishing trip con
WINGED him of enc thing. There is
altogether too much time spent
in diShWashlng.
1t seems that on his first fish
ing trip. he had gone along with
a group of would-be Izaak Waltons
with the idea of getting in some
good fishing and enjoying the
taste of fresh caught pan fried
trout.
VALUABLE TIME
But after arriving at the lodge,
he found their fishing time was
cut considerably by the great
number of dishes to be washed.
The thing became menace 70
their outing pleasure.
The cook before him was what
you call "fusSy.' He served as
would be done in his Michigan
home. 1nere was COlIlPAeIe COFCA
laid-plate. knife. fork, spoons
even a saucer with his coffee cup
When he cooked he insisted on a
different skillet for each thing he
cooked.
Such an extravagant use Of
dishes was too much. When the
time came for this member OF
Congress, who is now a member
of the Ways and Means Commit
tee to cook, he decided on an econ
omy program. There would here
after be no saucers served with
cups-nor teaspoons. One plate
was allowed on certain meals but
for breakfast no plates, knives,
nor forks.
This program, which gained
popularity on camping trips,
worked out successfully. While
still a skillet cook, he planned
meals SO that only one skillet was
used.
When there were bacon and eggs
