can be dressed in any number OF
graceful styles.
Hair that grows very heavy and
bulky must be shaped to preserve
the smart contour for the designs
in either curlS or waves.
There has never been a time
when the quality and texture of
the hair itself was given so much
thought and attention. Hair
brushing and fabrication is an
accepted part of the daily beauty
routine, and we do. not dare
ignore this fact if we would not
be embarrassed later on. The
center part is still worn, but is
not the height of fashion as 1t
was last fall.
These are a few advance hints
Of the trend of fashion, and we
will have more to tell you from
time to time. So between sea-
sons is the best time to recon
dition your hair and be ready for
later on.

BOY HAS BAD HABITS

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm II years old and have .
boy friend, of whom I'm very fond.
But he has many bad habits. He
has been in trouble with the police,
and was let off because he prom
ised to behave better but he hasn't
kept that promise
"I'm so fond of this boy that I
like him in spite Of what he has
done. I've tried to forget him and
convince myself that I'll get over
it, but find it impossible.
"Shall I leave him, or stand by
and try to help him quit the awful
things Of which have told you?
"BEWILDERED."
You must realize it isn't possible
for me to discuss the things you
have told me about this boy in my
column. He seems utterly 1ncor-
rigible, and I advise you, as
strongly as possible, to have moth
ing more to do with him.
Why wreck your life, at IL years
Of age, by attempting missionary
work on q boy who is utterly
vicious?

It's the raging male who has
written in-quite a number OF
him-and, according to him,
Messrs. Stain, MuSsolini and Hit
Ter will have to rise and offer
their seats to the ladies if they
don't watch out.
The trouble, it seems, is eco
nomic and began during the de-
preston, when men were turned
away from their jobs and women
were employed because they were
willing to work for less money.
Hence the dictator complex.
CHANGE ROLES
It began to show early in the
morning when the wife pulled on
her tight-fitting, black felt hat,
galoSheS, and, Seizing an umbrella,
went out into the storm, pointing
to the dishes in the sink, and
asked Friend Husband to please
Spick up the place, while she was
holding down the job and earn
ing the family income.
Furthermore, the breadwinner
is accused Of having asked her
erStwhile lord and master to run
out and buy a pound of ham,
burger while she was humping
the typewriter downtown, and to
have dinner ready against her re-
turn.
If there were children in the
family, she left few directions
about lunch for them and seeing
that their shoes were changed if
they happened to come in from
school with wet feet.
From these simple beginnings,
husbands claim, the dictator COM
plex started.
SYSTEM AT FAULT
But why blame the women?
AS long as employers can hire
women for less money than men,
and families have to eat during
depresSions, such conditions will
continue. It's the system, not the
woman, which is at fault.
If men and women were given
equal pay for equal work, women
would not be obliged to become
bread-winners when economic dis
aSterS threaten.
Nor is the dictator complex now
developing (according to these
gentlemen) confined to this coun-
try. It's showing its horrid head
in Latin nations, where women
have always been domestic and
docile.
Not long ago a group Of Italian
women waylaid the mighty Mus

 Horton, who has been in films for sixteen years. hardly needs an in- troduction to theater-goers. He appears in Let's Make Million, :" as the fluttery nervous person fa- miliar to all, this time as vet eran who gets his bonus and plans to do big things with it.
 The "pixilated" pair, however, have appeared together only once before, and that was as the two maiden ladies in MT. Deeds Goes to Town" These two ladies, Mar garet Seddon and Margaret Me Wade, act as Horton's aunts, who have their own ideas as to how their nephew should spend his bonus

CAPITOL SHOWS JOE E. BROW N
 IN COMEDY HIT
When Your Birthday Is Based on Astrolog-
 ical Plot

] Hilarious comedy is provided by "Whens Your Birthday" which op- ems a day day engagement at the Capitol Theatre tonight, with Joe E. Brown as funmaker- in- chief.
 Brown fs seen as an occasional prize fighter who adopts this means of paying for a course in astrology. Later he refuses to marry his sweet heart, Suzanne Kaaren, because she has selected a date which conflicts with the favorable aspect of his birth planet. He lands a job as a fortune-telling astrologer in a mid way concession operated by Fred Heating, where Marian Marsh is also working. Predicting the out come of a rzce, Brown enables Mi- nor Watson, "big-shot" gambler, to make a winning bet, and the latter promptly engages the three as his private staff for predicting the out come of sporting events.
 Browns part fits him like the pro- vermbial glove, and he has never appeared to better advantage His supporting cast is excellent, and in addition to those mentioned, in- cludes Edgar Kennery, Maude Eb- urne, Frank Jenks, Margaret Ham ilton, Bull Montana and others. There is also a funny, ragged little dog which adds its share to the comedy.
 Harry Beaumont directed the pie ture. which was produced by David L. Loew.
