ed the Freshmen dribblers by the
score of AL. Disharoon made the
lone Freshmen point on a foul shot.
The scoring for the Seniors was well
divided. Mervin Disharoon starred
for the second game in succession as
he swarmed down on his rivals and
dropped three balls through the hoop
for a total of six points. Price, Sem

six points, while Sii Northam made
an under-the-basket shot late in the
second half to bring the total to four

THE Page Boy bob has never
l. been one of our favorite
styles, but there have been a
number of requests for the cor
rect way of doing it, so we will
make it your professional lesson
for today.
AS matter of fact, there are
several ways in which it may be
done and when you know the
principle, you may devise a
method of your own.
Here is our way: AS you know,
this style calls for a long bob
with the top layer slightly long
er than the underneath. You
will need a I ! over which to
shape the hair and this may be
purchased or made up simply
with the equal thickness of
gauze, long enough to reach
from the temples all around the
head. Sew a piece of ribbon or
tape to the ends to hold it
securely to the head.
Comb the hair high and up
from the hairline and pin it out
of the way. Then part the front
hair in the center and separate
a piece on either side of the
part; enough hair to make into
four or five little ringlet curls.
comb these out and when you
place the roll around the head,
covering the hairline in the
back, then tie the ribbon ends
in front just at the hairline
over the forehead, but be sure
and tie it under the front hair

/. You are quite right about
the differentiation be W e e n
these two phrases. We say,
"Will you excuse me, please" or
"Excuse me, please" when We
are asking to be excused from
the room, or from the table, or
when we must take our atten-
ton away from the person with
whom we are speaking, for in
stance to answer the telephone.
POLITE USAGE
We say the polite Il beg your
pardon" or I'm sorry or I'm
so sorry" when we have to pass
in front of some one, or when
we accidentally push a person,
when we are thrown against a
person in a street car, or when
we interrupt person before we
realize that the person hadn't
finished speaking.
A suggestion: 1t is more
gracious to use the longer
phrase CT beg your pardon" or
I'm so sorry") rather than the
briefer Pardon me-" I am sure
that you will agree that it is
easier to get pleasanter intona-
ton of voice in the longer
phrase, and this is important
when we are asking a persons
pardon. Also this avoids that
disagreeable accent on me"

come first, and for every COM
pliment, and then you are right
about adding a pleasant I'm

me happy that you like it," or

I'm so proud that you like it"
The other phrases you suggest

NO WEDDING GIFT
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
My employers son is going to
be married and I have re-
ceived an invitation to the
church. I know the young man,
having met him two or three
times in the office, but I do
not know the young lady he is
going to marry. What I would
like to know il: Does the invita-
ton to the church mean that
I am supposed to send them a
gift, and if so, should it be sent,
inasmuch as I don't know the
young lady?
If am not supposed to send
a gift, will you please tell me
whether it is necessary for me
to write a note, sending them
my best wishes, and if so, to
whom it should be addressed,
and when should it be sent?

Whatever your hearts desire,
here are a few pointers to re-
member when you meet an at
tractive man-as every girl does

Sympathy draws a man like a

Show a warm, friendly interest
in his ideas and opinions.
Flatter him a bit. Maybe you
can take his advice on some
little point.
A confession of feminine igno-
rance, particularly on some sub
ject he knows, makes a man feel
wise and strong-and protective.
Always build up his faith in
his own ability. Be impressed
by what he's doing.
Never forget that g. mar loves

smile, a playful bit Of teasing.

By Beatrice Fairfax

Dear Miss Fairfax:
am 81 years old and think
it is about time I was getting
married. I've had quite a num-
Der of girl friends and have
taken them out for a few
months. 1 thought each one
would be the right one, but
something always happened to
make me think I would not be
happy with that particular girl.
Then would drift off to an
other. Some of the girls whom I
have liked didn't like me. I've
saved a little money and live
on a farm of my own with my
father and mother. Why is it
that I cannot make up my mind
to marry? GLEN.
1t would seem that you
haven't met the right girl, but
don't lose heart. You're still
younger is really young for a
man to marry-so don't get
anxious. If you know many
girls before you marry, you are
much more likely to pick the
right one in the end-one who
will measure up to all your ex-
pectations of what a wife
should be.
And while you're looking
around, be sure you choose a
girl who likes to work around
the house, to cook good substan-
tial meals, to make butter and
cheese, to can and preserve and
do all of those things that a
farmers wife must do if she is
to be a real helpmate to him.

mix all thoroughly, then form
into small outlets (not thicker
than half an inch) and saute in

apple ring and serve.
WHIPPED CREAM PIE
Sweeten with white sugar one
teacup of very thick sweet
cream, made as cold as possible
without freezing, and flavor
with almond or vanilla to taste.
Beat until as light as eggs for
frosting and keep cool until the
crust is ready. Make a crust
not too rich: prick well with a
fork to prevent blisterjug. Bake,
then spread on the cream and
add the finishing touches by
putting bits of jelly on top.
HOUSEHOLD HINTS
When washing glassware, do
not put in hot water bottom
first as it may crack from sud-
den expansion. Each delicate
glass can be more safely washed
in very hot water if slipped in
edgewise.

wood surfaces, use linseed oil
and petroleum, and rub with a

TzVO OUerCOatS Needed
For Complete Wardr0be

Winter weather, subject to
change without notice, Turing
you outdoors on clear fine days
for long drives in the country,
and brisk walks along the ave-
nues in town, and then turning
suddenly cold before you are
home again, brings up the mat
ter Of coats for men.
DIFFERENT FABRICS
AS applied to coats, the bal
anced wardrobe theory is that
the city man needs at least
two-one for town wear, dressy
enough to be correct for semi
formal evening wear as well as
daytime, and the other for spec
tator sports. driving or country
wear. Because the fabrics and
styles for these two general clas-
Sifications of coats are quite
different, each planned for its
special use, two coats purchased
at one time and worn each for
it's correct occasions may be
expected not only to keep a man
better dressed than he could
be with any one coat, but also
to wear better than two coats
bought successfully on a re-
placement basis and worn stead
lily, each one for all occasions
that demand a coat.

Town coats may be Of the fly

styling with equal correctness,
and are slightly fitted at the
waist. The ulster. a time-hon-
ored favorite of young men,

and since you are invited only
to the ceremony (for there prob
ably is also a reception follow
ing the ceremony, a gift really
isn't called for.
BE APPRECIATIVE
However. it was a most cour-
teous and friendly gesture that
your employer made to you, and
l suggest that you make some
bow of appreciation about this.
I know you want to, too. The
sending of flowers the day be-
fore the wedding or the morning
CT the wedding is the perfect
thing to do under these circum-
stances. You send the flowers,
a box of white "bride-y' looking
flowers. not a corSage. to the
bride-elect at her home, and this
is true even if you don know
her. Enclose your card, with or
without a written message on it.

haven't a visiting card, the flor
ist will give you a plain white

together. then tie another piece
of tape around the head just
above the roll and, with the
permanent wave pin, draw the
ends under the roll up as far as
the pin will reach. Do this care
fully all around the head while
you make slight pressure TO
hold the roll in place. When all
the hair is rolled under, place
several hairpins here and there
to make it secure, then do the
front in two clusters, one on
either side of the part. Pin
them in the usual way. Cover
with a net and put your patron
under the dryer. Some hair
dressers do not use a net for
this hairstyling as they feel it
may change the shape Of the
roll, so you can use your own
judgment about that.
When the hair is dry it can
be combed out to the soft roll
ana the front ringlets may be
dressed in high puffs or done in
soft ringletS.
For formal dress you may use
a metal or floral band around
the top of the roll, with an orna-
ment to finish on both sides Of
