Nothing makes a girl
so angry as to have her
hair look as if it were
buttered. Oil Spouting
out Of the SebaceouS
glands does that. Some
times the oil appears a
few days after the
shampoo. Sometimes
what seems to be oil is
soap scum that has not
been rinsed away.
Let the lady of the
Shimmering locks try
washing her hair with
eggs. TresseS will be
light, fluffy and clean.
If soap deposits have
accumulated it will
clear them away.
Don't beat the eggs
to a foam. Add a table.
spoon of cold water and
give them a few whiSks.
Six eggs are not too
many for the average
head of hair.
Rinse with a rouSing
spray, friction in half
of the eggs, keep on
rubbing until they form
a cracking foam. Rinse,
use the rest of the eggs,
give a final rinSing.
Don't be afraid to use
fairly hot water. If any
egg particles remain on

Smoke clouds appear on the

and smoky gray assume impor-
tance on the color card. An eX-

chiffon worn over flame-color

and flame-colored sequins. These
bands appear at the deep decol-

I think cold meat pudding,
served with remoulade sauce, is
a splendid course to serve at
dinner tomorrow evening If the
weather warns up bit. Try
preparing it from one Of the
easiest and fastest recipes that
I know of.
A most refreshing dessert to
prepare. and one which everyone
is certain to like, is a peach

WORRIED MOTHER

Some flies will always fall
on the fly paper" And this
letter I'm giving you is about
one of these young lady flies.
1t was written by her mother,
much worried.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Since her graduation, Jane
has got in with a very wild
bunch, who call themselves the
Dutch Treaters.' Evening after
evening they go to various road
houses to dance and drink, treat
ing each other turn and turn
about.
Jane comes home at all hours
Of the morning, often intoxi-
Gated, and have the response
bility of getting her to bed and
getting her up in the morning,
so that she will be able to go to
her job on time.
Her father and I decided,
when she got this job at $3.50
per week, that she might keep
all of it to buy herself some
pretty clothes, and not pay any
board at home. We did this be.
cause she was such a good stu.
dent, and made the honor roll.
Nov, we're wondering If we
did the wise thing in letting our
girl have this money, which she
seems to spend on wild parties.
MY husband blameS me for this,
though I'm sure the suggestion
came from him in the first
place.
DISCORDANT HOME
"Our home, which was once
happy, is now filled with wran-
Cling and discord. Have you had
other letters like this, and how
was the problem solved?"
"A MOTHER"
It seems to me you have the
remedy right in your own hands.
Why call Jane at all, after she's
been out at one of her Dutch
treat affairs, since her job Is for
fun and not necessary to the
family?
Keep the house as quiet as
you did when she was a baby
having her afternoon nap. Let
her sleep it off. Expecting you
to call her, she will probably
dream on till noon.
After you have done this a
few times she'll be fired and will
not have her $3.50 a week to
spend on wild parties. Even if
she invests in an alarm clock
and depends on it to awaken
her, no one is going to employ
a girl very long who comes to
an office regularly with every
evidence of a hangover.
ROOT OF EVIL
Absurd as it seems, I've ac-
tually had letters from parents
who give their sons and daugh.
ters-not yet Self-supporting-
an allowance with which to
keep themselves in continual
scrapes. In such cases money
is the equivalent Of gasoline in
a motor.
Far be it from me to suggest
that parents cut off what is
called, in derision, good, clean
fun" Encourage that, and know
with whom your children asso-
ciate. But why give them money
with which to get into mischief?
strict parents - attention!
This does not apply to good boys
and girls. Give them more rope.

Last, the bride and her father.
We usually don't see a ring
bearer in wedding professional
nowadays. But if the bride in
sists on having one, he usually
carries a small satin pillow. on
which reposes a dummy ring,
for he is quite likely to drop it.
And if the ring is securely
fastened to the pillow, it means
difficulty in getting it from the
pillow at the right time.

mother, or the IA or 18-year-old
here's something we haven't
written about before in this
column. We're doing so today
because we've had urgent and
distressed letters on the subject.
Some of the letters I've had
telling of disrespect, disobedi-
ence, and open defiance have
been from the grandmothers
themselves.
More have been from the
mothers who support the house
hold, away all day at work.
Now being a grandmother
doesn't necessarily mean being
old but it does mean being two
generations behind these grand
children in their teens, which
is in itself a handicap in dealing
with them hourly.
With such a gap in generations
and with much of a grand
mothers endurance having al
ready been spent, the whole set
UP isn't so favorable to start
with.
IMPATIENT OF RESTRAINT
Boys-and it is chiefly grand
sons about whom get COM
Enthusiastically need either their
father or their mother around
them to 60 out with them, and
to enjoy what they enjoy. II
they don't have it they miss it,
except in those rather excep-
tional families where there IS
splendid teamwork and a lot OF
understanding.
Two generations separate g.
boy and his grandmother and
times have changed nightly
in fact never so rapidly as IN
the last thirty years-and grand
mothers cannot always hold on
to fundamentals and still under
stand new customs and ideals.
Boys especially have little
patience with restraint and un-
der circumstances like this tend
to throw it off. The absent
mother cannot often exert the
influence that these young peo-
pie need.
BE GLAD YOU'RE NEEDED
When trouble such as we have
been describing arises it may be
that only one of the three gen.
erations is to blame-or they
may all be at fault; grand
mother, mother, and the chill.
dren.
First, to the grandmother, I
would say: Do try to understand
these teen age boys and girls. I
know they are trying, but adde's
cence is difficult for them as
well as for their elders. Next, try
to make the best of this turn
your life has taken. And last, be
glad you are needed-it is a won
derful thing to be necessary to
some one.
To the mother I'd say: Try to
really understand your adde's.

how can you expect their grand
mother, who is of another gen.
Grafton, to know how to manage
them? Also, realize what this re-
