 It would not do at all to say, Since we have a home or our own, I think 1t would be fun for us to have Christmas there" That would hurt Mothers feel- tngs.
 It certainly wouldn't do for them to mention the open house they have planned, or the party they hate to miss. That would sound like pure selfishness.
 No. they have to visit one set of parents or the other. Or face hurt feelings for months to come. PARENTS SHOULD

 Maybe Mary would love to go home for Christmas. But she knows that visiting her family is nothing for John to look forward to. And it is her job to make him happy.
 Also. maybe they actually can't afford the trip.

QUrNrNE FOR THE CRr

QUININE FOR THE CRr
 Yesterday we ended our talk dis cussing the way the Common Res- piratory Infections are spread by rnguarded sneezing and coughing and even in conversation.
 Oh, I know 1t is unpleasant to think about such infection. But 1t is more unpleasant to catch the cri when you know in your heart that had the so-and.so who peppered you exercised intelligence and con- science you might have escaped the illness.
 I'm just telling you. Not that. I expect you will go about wearing a mask, even when you have early symptoms of the cri. Nor do l ex- pect you will spend the rest of your life ducking and lodging when people approach to speak to you and you suspect they have the cri.
 Still, I don't mind confessing that in some ticklish situations 1t takes all the courage l can muster to stand my ground when the impulse is to throw up my guard-my cup. ped hands before my face and beat 1t out of range as quickly as possible when some one buttonholes me to tell me what c dreadful "cold" he has or is just throwing of! It Is my honest belief that Q clear comprehension of the significance of the cri-after all, 1t Is not just 6 puerile attempt on my part to substitute . meaningless term for c misleading one, "cold"-is the great test protection one can have against such illness --and such illness, be 1t remembered, accounts for three- fourths of the business of medical practitioners the year around.
 A more effective prophylactic measure against the cri, believe, would be the universal custom of wearing suitable mask (screen) over the fact, or contriving some such screen between oneself and persons with whom one converses. But the public has not yet learned to use or respect such Q measure.
 A third line of defense which is readily available for everybody Is good old quiiline.
 Based wholly upon worldwide experience and not on any scientific theory or observation, the value of quinine both as prophylactic against any respiratory infection in time of epidemic and as Q remedy when you are coming down with the

Glorifwng Yourself
 - ae a vYA
By Alicia HaEt

Manufacturers of cosmetics con- tinue at this season of the year to create new beauty items which make the self f-improvement routines of the average woman great deal simpler. Everything is being done to help the customer look the way she wants to look-in minimum of time.
 Brand new right now is 6 pen- cil-shaped lip coloring gadget, filled with creamy lipstick and tipped with a small sable brush. It enables anyone to apply lipstick in the approved Hollywood man. ner (with a brush) without having to carry both brush and container of lipstick in her bag.
 The pencil Is filled with lipstick which flows easily when the cap is turned. Turn the cap and the red cream flows out of the pencil into the center of the brush. You first outline the lips with the brush, then fill in between the lines. Let the color set for 6 few moments before pressing Q piece of cleansing tissue tightly be- tween lips. This last step is very important. Unless you blot with cleansing tissue, your lips will not have . smooth, evenly colored look.
 New. too. are smarthly packaged manicure kits that contain everything really needed for a home manicure and absolutely nothing that Is useless or useful only now and then. The essentials are handily arranged to avoid waste of materials or time. One company makes an lover knee" kit which is simply a sturdy band with Q pocket at either end. The pockets are filled with manicure implements and nail preparations. Put the band across your knee and you have everything neces- sary within easy reach.
 For utter chic, there are: lip- sticks with your monogram cut out on the case; Q gold compact with e lipstick for c clasp; . trio of little perfume bottles in snow- ball (nice for Christmas or for your own dressing table).
