teeth and for promoting q high level
OF general health.
Milk Is also a source Of phosphorus,
proteins Of good quality, vitamins A
and 9, and it is excellent as a pellagra
preventive. Even families who econ
omize sharply should get plenty Of
milk in some form.
vegetables and fruits belong in
the protective class because Of their
vitamins and minerals. OF all the
vegetables the leafy, green and yellow
varieties are especially necessary. The
thin. green. leafy kinds furnish vita.
minis A and c, and iron to the diet.
Other green. non-leafy vegetables are
valuable, though not 50 rich in these
food elements.
tomatoes and citrus fruits are
especially valuable for vitamin c. All
fruits and vegetables furnish a little
of vitamin B. Eggs furnish iron and
good protein.
"A N ADEQUATE diet at any cost
must include these protective
foods, as well as the body building
and energy-producing foods. Those
who study the nutritive values Of
food know that some types Of food
are more economical than others as
sources of certain food elements. How
this knowledge may be useful to the
homemaker is illustrated in the fol-
lowing two meals:
AT one cost level a typical dinner
might include a thick steak, French.
fried potatoes, hothouse tomatoes,
fancy rolls. avocado and pomegranate
salad, a whipped cream and pastry
dessert.
But for an adequate dinner at q
much lower cost the main dish Of the
meal could be meat and cereal loaf.
The meat in the loaf would be a less
expensive but no less nutritious cut.
Scalloped potatoes, buttered beets with
their green tops, cabbage salad, bread
and butter, hot gingerbread, and
milk for all would complete the din
ner.
Both Of these meals have practically
the same food elements Both are
well-balanced nutritionally. But one
Is more flavorful and makes use Of the
more expensive vegetables and exotic
fruits. Also it allows for more time
and money in food preparation"

women know how critical the gaze of
their fellow members can be, and how
difficult it is to face them as a pre-
siding officer if there is the slightest
feeling of doubt as to the correctness
Of ones costume. The same holds true,
or should, for each member in the
group who may have all eyes focused
on her for moment at least when
she expresses her opinion on the ques-
ton under discussion!
The fascinating 4Os." and the years
beyond, all have suitable fashions that
are full of charm but to be smartly
dressed when one is neither young
nor a perfect 36' requires so much
thought and constant attention to
good grooming that many women will
not take the trouble to look their best
at all times. This is especially true
of the busy housewife who gets into
slack habits from spending so much
time away from other women. Her
hats are out Of style long before they
show signs of wear! The business
woman, on the other hand. Is apt to
be better dressed. but does not always
realize all of her possibilities for in
dividuality in dress. as she is too tired
after work to try out new tricks with
her clothes and new ways to comb her
hair.

Emphasize
The Good
Points
More About Flaws
That Are Best
Forgotten.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

As WE explained yesterday. there
are some beauty flaws that can
and should be corrected, and there
are those that should be forgotten.
You can't do much about the color
of your eyes. except point it up with
makeup and costume colors that
flatter. You can't do much about
the shape of your face, though clever
application OF makeup can do much
to make too-long face look wider
or q too-broad face look more oval.
You can't change the bone structure
of your body. The best you can do
is to choose lines that make you look
nearer the ideal figure.
II you are large woman, strive
to look stately, instead of envying
the cute, petite type. And If you
attempt to initiate the little one
you'll look ludicrous. If you are
short you can look a little taller by
choosing longer lines, but you'll never
look really tall. And if you are
tall you can call on belts and boleros
and horizontal lines to cut your height,
although don't see why you should
want to, because the ideal figure,
according to the modern school is
the tall one.
II your hands are large emphasize
their strength. but keep them soft,
smooth and white. And il your feet
are big. that's no beauty flaw, not
these days. Trying to cramp them
into a shoe two sizes too small will
<only give YOU corns and pains.
In other words, when we say that
women are outwitting nature, we
don't mean that they are shutting
their eyes to certain limitations that
nature has put on our potentialities
for beauty. What we do mean is:
We can make the most of ourselves,
or the natural endowments that are
ours. The best we can do is create
an illusion of beauty, nearer the
normal, nearer perfection.
Limited by our natural coloring,
stature, bone shape and structure, by
our temperament and type we can,
nevertheless, point up the beauty of
our features, our skin, hair, hands or
figure.

Local Fashion Show
Highlights History.

IF YOU are in doubt about whether
or not women dress to please the
men. and If 1t proves to be worth
while gesture, glance back through
the pages of history and read some
of the thrilling stories of the women
whose lives shaped the destinies of
nations. making those stalwart men
of old as clay in their hands by the
same feminine wiles that women en-
ploy today.
Better still, take the word of Helen
Virginia Meyer on this subject She
has studied history with a keen eye
on the gossip and inside stories of all
the loveliest women from the Queen
of Sheba and Helen of Troy, down
through the ages, and there's not
much that she has missed. In fact,
chat with Miss Meyer over the lunch
con table the other day brought forth
q fund of fascinating stories of the
more intimate lives of women of his
tory that made some of our modern
ronances pale into insignificance.
Miss Meyer, who has made an ex-
tensive study of historical gowns and
the personalities of the women who
wore them, showed a group of 25
costumes today in the tearoom of a
local department store. Young mod
erns slipped into these authentic
copies of costumes of bygone days
and impersonated such women as
Marie Antoinette in one of her IA
vorite blue gowns with its ~ yards
of MORE taffeta, all looped, puffed
and distended with hoops. Cleopatra's
dress was ablaze with gold sequins,
believe 1t or not! Lovely Jenny Lind,
who won the heart of P. T. Barnum.
but did not return that love, was
represented, and the very same little
square, toed. low-heeled slippers, size
s, that she actually wore, are part
of this collection.
Punctuated with the delightful gos-
sipy descriptions Of each glamorous
woman who made hearts beat faster
because she had that certain some
thing called charm, this unusual show
Is well worth making an effort to see
It will be given again tomorrow for
those who missed the first showing.
Aside from the sheer romance of
this group of costumes. 1t is interesting
to note the sources Of many fashions
that are used today in modified forms
And, as a fitting conclusion, modern
romance is typified in two bridal
groups, one an informal and the other
q formal wedding party, both ex-
tremely lovely.

them have a real grasp Of nutrition
and what 1t means, and their families
are prospering accordingly. But there
are always those to be considered who
do not have this intelligence and
training, and it is toward them that
the experts are directing most of their
statistical barrage.
They have found that one out of
every five families in the country is
getting diet that, If prolonged, will
certainly undermine health and lower
resistance to disease. This is what
they wish to correct. And one OF the
most important points upon which
they lay stress is the fact that a fully
nutritional diet does not have to be an
expensive diet-but it does have to be
planned and cooked with intelligence
and at least rudimentary knowledge
OF dietary requirements. Here Is what
they say, in part:
A PPARENTLY many homemakers
do not fully realize the value Of
protective foods-milk, butter, eggs,
green and leafy vegetables and fruits.
For the study shows that the average
diet is better fortified in proteins and
carbohydrates than in the minerals
and vitamins that these protective
foods provide.
"Of the minerals, calcium and iron
shortages occur most frequently. In
the North and West vitam:ns A and B
most often run low. In the South it is
vitamin G and the pellagra-preventing
factors In which diets are deficient.
These shortages show up even
among families spending fairly gener-
Gus amounts for their food. Many OF
these diets could have been improved
without spending any more money.
1t merely would have been a matter of
selecting more carefully the food from
each Of the different food groups.
Milk Is an economical source of
several important food values. 1t
contributes more to good nutrition
than any one food. 1t has no equal
as source Of calcium. Without a
generous supply Of milk it is difficult
to get enough calcium for building
and maintaining strong bones and

with married woman Of %. She
loves me very much and is going to try
to get a divorce from her husband,
but many times we have arguments
that are so hot that we come to the
point Of breaking up. In fact, have
thought Of leaving her because when
she gets angry with me she puts me
In mind Of the way she treats her hus-
band. What do you think? IF.
Answer-Of course she will treat you
the way she treats her husband after
you stand in that gentleman's shoes.
You don't suppose that marriage is
going to work any sort Of 4 miracle
that will change her nature and habits
and cure her temper and her love of
arguing, do you?
The safest bet in the world Is that
woman Is going to be the same kind

first, 20 you can take q leck at how
she treats her current husband with
the certainty that that is the way she

1t Is nothing but vanity that makes
. woman think that the husband she
took away from another woman will
be true to her, or that makes q man

was selfish and inconsiderate Of him,
will be amiable and sweet and tender
to him. Divorce may change wom-
ans name, but not her nature.

In question box The two that are
asked oftenest are: How can become

their friendship? And: Is petting

advice on these subjects?
TEACHER.
Answer: No one can give girls any
hard-and rule for making a hit
with boys. because not all boys have
the same taste in girls any more than
they have in ice cream sodas. The
very thing that might strike one lads
fancy would leave another cold.
Some boys, for instance, like tall
girls; others like pocket Venuses Some
favor brunettes and others blonds.
Some like babblers and others want
girls who will lend them their ears.
So it is impossible to hold up any type
on which girl could form herself
that would make her sure Of always
having dates.
Then, too, a girls popularity depends
upon her personality more than on any
other one thing. That is something
intangible that no one can describe or
acquire by taking thought about it..
1t is just something that girl has or
she hasn't, and that's all there is about
it. It is the come-hither look in her
eyes that makes every man get up
and follow one girl, while another Just
as pretty. just as intelligent, Just as
good dancer has never beau to bless
herself with.
Generally speaking. however, the
girl who wants to be popular with boys
should make herself as good looking
as she can by keeping herself clean
and well groomed. and dressing In
clothes that flatter her instead Of those
that bring out her worst points. But
boys do not like to 60 out with girl
who is overdressed and conspicuous or
who INDUCES in freakish. hairdos, or
who Is so plastered with cosmetics
that she looks like q painted barn door.
1t takes youth with strong stomach
to want to kiss lips that look like q
bloody cut of butchers meat.
