Girl Aviator Finds
Flying an Asset
In Business.

HUMAN nature is a funny thing.
Proud papas can get more ex-
cited over baby's first tooth than
over a big business deal, football
fans would rather see touchdown
than an eclipse of the sun, and
Jacqueline Cochran gets more
worked up over her cosmetic busi-
ness than over flying.
All of which leads up to the fact
that Miss Cochran is in town, and
though the world may think of her
in terms of flying helmets and
coast-to-coast flights, she is really
seriously engaged in this business
of making women more beautiful.
The girl who skipped blithely by
field of the foremost men aviators
to grab off the honors in the Bendix
Transcontinental Air Race is live
wire She is constantly on the 60
supervising the merchandising of
her beauty products, making flying
trips around the country, and MAIN
tanning beauty salons. She con-
siders flying an integral part of her
work, however, for it is matter of
convenience in travelling and helps
her to make these hops, skips and
jumps in no time fiat.
Aviation has been a part Of her
life for six years, but she does not
exemplify the type of woman avi-
ator we so often picture. Miss
Cochran is lovely to look at, dresses
well-both fasilionably and fem
ininely-and has charming per-
sonality. More than that-she is
the most gracious hostess imagin-
able. When we saw her, she wore
green wool dress and her hair
UPSWEPT. She firmly believe
that the new hair-do is here to stav
Women all over Europe have

and when l arrived it still locke

Cochran wears slacks and shirt
the practical outfit.
Jacqueline Cochran has been f.
this kind of business nearly all he
life. but it has only been in tn
past four years that her own PROD
ucts have been on the market. Il
opened my first salon four years
ago." she explained, but it was
preceded by years of cosmetic re-
search. Since that time I have
placed my products in many stores.
and by Christmas hope to have Il
large number of additional ac-
counts" She is greatly thrilled by
the fact that so many stores have
recognized the value of her brand
and asked for her cosmetics.
All in all. the girl who won her
first big race after flying only
year, who runs her business sys-
tematically and sensibly, and-who
turns out to be a real person, is
after big things in the world of
beauty. And if past records are
any criterion, we'd like to bet next
weeks salary against a ham sand.
wich that she'll get what she wants.

My Neighbor Soys:

There are some seasons and
some gardens in which to-
matoes seem to ripen very
slowly. This is largely mat
ter of temperature, soil and
moisture. 1t is natural that
tomatoes will ripen more quick
ly in a light soil than in one
which is heavy, but the free
use of water will be a help in
any garden. In a cool summer,
however, it may be necessary
to pick the fruit and ripen it
under glass in order to save
the last end of the crop. Some
garden-makers spread straw or
papers in the bottom of a cold
frame and then putting on the
glass. The heat of the sun
ripens the tomatoes very quick
ly, but care must be taken to
give plenty of ventilation. If
plants are pulled up by the
roots at the coming of frost,
they can be hung tops down
from the rafters in an attic and
will keep on ripening their
fruit until Christmas is close
at hand.
Blanc mango may be easily
removed from q mold if a cloth
is dipped in hot water, wrung
until 1t will not drip, and
wrapped around mold. Turn
bottom of mold upward on 4
fiat dish and shake gently to
dis1odge contents.
Apple juice is rich in pectin
Chat jelly-making product,
and it can be added to other
fruit or berry juices to make
delicious jellies. Try 3 parts
apple and l part raspberry or
2 parts apple and l part straw
berry. Equal parts plum and
apple Juice can be used.

Dog Week. It's a real occasion.
If one were to put out of the mind
that white Spitz who chases cars to
the point of ditching them. and for
give the canine who ate the gladi-
olus bulbs, the fact would be evil
dent.
There's no creature to whom
mankind owes more allegiance
than the dog. Didn't it pick the
human race for an associate in pref
erence to all others? And doesn't
the family hound, when meeting
another of his kind. forget the So
cial niceties in an effort to protect
his beloved human? Nobodys right
but his boss. That goes for the
other dog, too.
National Dog Weeks motto is:
Every dog needs a good home"
Its aims and objectives are seven:
l. A good home for every dog.
2. To eliminate stray dogs from
the streets.
3. To disseminate the actual truth
ABOUT RABIES.
4. To educate dog owners to their
obligations. both to their dogs and
to the public in general.
S. To teach kindness and consid-
Grafton by children and adults
toward dogs and animals in general.
6. To emphasize the use of the
dog as home protector. faithful COM
panion and useful servant of hu-
manity.
Z. To secure fair and just laws
for dogs and their owners.
Take objective No. 2. 1t may
seem bit drastic to some, but kind
ness, to dog or any one else. is
more than skin deep. Sometimes
what seems cruel at the time is
kindness in the long run. Letting

wants to play. When I attempt to
punish one of the children she flies
at me like tigress and snatches the
child to her bosom and poor things
it and mamma darlings' it until it
ends in my being the culprit instead
of the child. She even balks my eff
forts to give the children an educa-
ton by always taking the child's
part in any difficulty between it
and its teacher and making the
child believe that the reason he
was kept in and got poor marks
was because Teacher was an old
meanie who for some unknown rea-
son was prejudiced against her lit
tie angel.
AM not exaggerating when l
say that have not only drawn
my own portrait. but that of a null
titude of other fathers and our DO
sition in reference to our children.
1t isn't because we don't love our
youngsters and don't realize our re-
sponsibility to them that we take
no part in their rearing. 1t is be-
cause our wives won't let us. If we
attempt to interfere in any way or
assert any authority, it brings on a
fight in which the child sees its
mother and father reduced to the
level of Snarling animals. It hears
them bring accusations and counter
accusations against each other that
is bound to destroy its respect for
both of them.
Nothing can be worse for chill
dren than to be brought up in a
home that is place of perpetual
conflict between their. parents, so
rather than inflict that fate on my
youngsters bought peace for them
by stepping out of the picture, ex-
cept as billpayer, and am letting
their mother work her will with
them. Perhaps we fathers who do
this make a cowardly surrender,
but what else can we do?"
DOROTHY DIX.

back of her neck, for it helps to
give her young but sophisticated
Woman-of-the world look. How
ever, you will find that the extreme
styles are not becoming to the very
young girl. 1t has just the opposite
effect on them-makes them look
too old, and they cannot stand the
lack of softness around the neck.
Young girls should have the hair
in suggestion of height off the
forehead and sides, but a bit of
softness at the back is much to be
desired. However, hair that comes
below the neckline is definitely out.
When we speak of softness at the
back we do not mean the long,
bushy bobs of recent times"
X Xxx
IF YOUR hair is properly cut and
waved. you will not need a lot
Of combs and pins to keep it in
place. In fact, this same hairdresser
frowns on the use of combs with
the new coiffures-except for dra-
matte accents in the evening-and
laughed fiendishly at our favorite
hairpins-the kind we couldn't do
without. MY grandmother used
to wear those" he jeered: you
won't need that kind with the new
styles"
The pleasant thought about the
new coiffures is that they are not
cut so short that it is impossible
to wear them in any way but the
original style. The same source of
information-a Veritable fountain
of wisdom-assured us that the
hair is never cut SO short that it
cannot be rearranged in a more
conservative manner. But he prac-
tically ignores the fact that you
would ever return to the ancient
styles once you made the transition.
1t is comforting to think that our
curly locks will be covered by a
perky bonnet this season. After
all. it's all right to 60 without a
hat sometimes, but we can't do it
forever.
What wonderful idea it was for
the milliners and hairdressers to
get together. 1t helped them. it
helped us, and it certainly solved
the problem of the hatless heroines
of the age. Now we can still have
our upswept hair styles and cha
peaux that fatter and accentuate
the trend toward height-what a
relief!
Three cheers for the hair and hat
industries! They're closer than a
8 am. traffic jam!

lnSoluble problem than
does the one who sees his children,
who have the making of fine men
and women in them, being ruined
by their mother and realizes that he
is powerless to save them.
yet that is the situation in which
millions of us fathers find ourselves.
We know the world too we'll not to
know what is bound to be the ulti-
mate fate of children who have
been pampered and spoiled all of
their lives and who have known no
law except their own wills.
I'VE have seen too many boys
and girls who are drunkards be-
cause they have never been taught
any self-control; too many young
couples getting divorces because
they have never been held to any
duty or obligation or made to do
anything they didn't want to do:
too many weaklings who threw up
their hands and quit whenever the
shedding got hard, not to know
what happens to youngsters who
have not been disciplined at home
and had the courage and the
strength bred in them that would
enable them to fight the battle of
life and win out.
TX MOVING these things, as every
man must know them, the
question naturally arises: Why
don't we try to prepare our chill
dren for life? Why do we appar-
emily consider that we have done
our full duty as fathers when we
support our youngsters? Why do
we wash our hands of all response
bility in their upbringing and turn
them over to their mothers to rear
when we know that their mothers
are incompetent to do it?
''The answer is that not once in a
thousand times will a mother con-
cede the children's father any au-
thority over them or cooperate
with him in rearing them. Worse
than that, almost every mother is a
monopolist so far as her children
are concerned. She is deadly jeal-
Gus of their affection for their ia
ther and determined that they shall
love her best. To gain their favor
she makes them feel that she is
the one who INDUCES them and
saves them from having to do tasks,
and that their father is a grinding
tyrant who metes out punishment
and doesn't care whether they are
happy or not.
my experience is not different
from that of the great majority of
fathers. If I say mo- to anything
the children want to do, their
mother invariably vetoes my de-
cision in the children's presence,
and that's poor psychology even in
training dog. If I correct a child,
she accuses me Of picking on poor
little Johnny and wonders how
can be so hard on a helpless crea-
ture. That gives Johnny a grand
case of self-pity and puts father in
the light of a brute.

Hair Designing Institute sent out a
general alarm. Calling all hair
dressers and milliners," they yelled,
something has got to be done or
we'll all end up behind the pro-
verbal eight ball" Milliners with
worried looks and hairdressers with
CRAVING locks ran to the scene.
They held a conference. More than
that, they decided that each was
running the others business. What
1t must have been some wise
and worldly graybeard who hit
upon the answer. And the answer,
oddly enough, was COMPROMISE.
Well work hand in glove, they de-
cided, to give the women of the
world q coiffure that can be worn
under hats and hats that can be
worn over a coiffure. 1t was as
simple as all that. :.
And that is precisely what they
have done. If you will cast dis
eliminating eye over the new au-
tumn hats, you may notice slight
change. More and more tall bon
nets are appearing, and less fiat
and somewhat infinitesimal head
gear is being shown. Hats are sug-
gesting height-so is hair. Rapidly
vanishing are the extreme styles in
coiffures, to be replaced by hair
styles that do not skyrocket to the
skies. but instead INDICATE
height.
HOWEVER, just because the two
industries that cater to milady's s
crowning glory have decided to
pacify each other, don't smile glee-
fully and think that things are
going to return to normal. On the
contrary, we will still have the
upswept hair-do. but all indications
cause us to believe that it will be
4 touch more modified. In other
words, we will probably not look
quite 50 much like we were going
to step into the bathtub. but there
is no doubt that hair will be UP.
The hair stylist with whom we
spoke was really well informed on
the subject-he was one of those
who answered the A. H. D. is call
for action-and his ideas were just
a bit different from those of other
experts. The very extreme styles,
he told us, are for the more ma
ture woman. From IS on she can
wear her hair swept up in a more
dramatic manner. The older woman
can stand her hair entirely off the
