Shaping Hair
ATickliSh
Problem
Weu.Cut Coifures
Have Much More
Versatility
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Once your hair is in good condi.
ton, free Of dandruff and with suf-
hcient elasticity, you should get Il
nicely shaped before getting the
new permanent. Natural curly
heads usually do not require shaping,
Tor their waves and curls STAY In
place with a good setting. OF course,
II curly head has very thick hair
she might find 1t easier to manage
II 1t is thinned and shaped a bit.
This business of thinning and
shaping hair Is ticklish problem.
Some hairdressers do not know
when to stop when they get q pair
OF scissors in their hands. They
hack away taking hunks of YOUR
cherished locks with little concern
about how long 1t took you to grow
them. An expert, however, will not
cut away too much of your hair,
nor cut 1t in such extreme fashion
that you will go home and weep
afterward! But from personal ex-
perience. and many inquiries, think
1t is best for you to caution the
man or woman who cuts your hair.
Have a pretty definite idea how YOU
want to wear it and rather have
too little cut than too much! You
can always return for a second
shaping after you get your perma-
nent wave.
Good hair styling is definitely an
art and if you are fortunate enough
to get into the hands of a hair
dresser who knows and loves his
business you can have your hair
SO cut that it may be set in a
variety of ways. If you wish it
simple for daytime you may wear
it simply and when night comes
when you want to be more CLAM
orous, you should be able to comb
it into a more elaborate coiffure.
Let me give you directions on how
to recondition dry or neglected hair.

Dorothy Dix Says
Mans Bottled Temper and Nerves
Frequently Released at Home

Dear Dorothy Dix: What can
q wife do with husband who
swears and throws things and breaks
up the furniture If anything goes
wrong in the home or he has had a
bad day at the factory? For IL years
have been trying to solve the rid
die I am married to and find out
what makes him act the way he does.
Whether he doesn't like me or
doesn't like marriage or what's the
matter. When we are at home alone
at night he never speaks to me. If
friends drop in for cards he is pleas
ant enough to them, but after they
are gone he tells me that I have
just been showing of by bringing in
some sandwiches and coffee. When
his friends come to dinner he spends
the evening making fun of me, de-
riding my figure, my walk and how
much money I spend. 1t is hard to
keep the tears back and put on a
front, and I feel I cannot do 1t much
longer. Do you think my husband
wants me to leave him? Is he trying
to drive me away? And If he isn't
why does he treat me as he does?
I would rather go and make my
own living than to stand what I do.
ANNE.
Answer-Many husbands use their
wives as escape valves for all the
bottled-up temper and nerves and
irritability that they dare not show
the outside world. It is q mean thing
for a man to 60 home and give his
innocent wife the beating he would
have liked to have given to some
brawny giant ne dared not touch,
but a lot of them do it. The most
grinding domestic tyrant I ever
knew was a little man who quaked
with terror when his boss spoke to
him and who didn't call his soul his
own in the office where he worked.
Many man takes his revenge at
the way the world treats him by
mistreating his wife, and many
man initiates his own ego by derid-
ing and ridiculing his wife before
people and showing how superior he
is to her. So because your husband
treats you the way he does is no
sign that he regrets being married

You're Brave by
Comparison.

Comparison.
On the date, remember that she
is actually Observation-Disclosures worse
of than you are. And devote your
self whole-heartedly and completely
TO putting her at ease and making
her have a good time. Remember
that, in comparison to the way she
feels, you are model Of poise, sure
ness and self confidence. That feel
ing will bolster your ego and you'll
do yourself proud.
After few dates like that, help
ing a bashful girl to snap out of it,
you will feel capable of dealing with
the proudest prom princess. And
your shyness will be a thing Of the
past.
II you're girl, reverse the proc
ess. Be friendly to the most Diff
dent boy you know. If your club
has party to which boys are to
be invited, ask him. If no such op-
portunlty presents itself, you can
gradually put him enough at his
ease with you that he'll do the ask
ing. That will be a real triumph
for you-and a real kindness to him.
II you are too shy to befriend
some bashful boy, try it on another
girl. There's always some one more
tlmid and backward than you are.
Help her overcome her shyness while
you are battling your own, and then
60 on to bigger and better battles
together.

Random Use
OF Missiles
Dangerous
Youngsters Require
A Target Game to
Stop Impulse
cranberry sauce.
By ANGELO pATRI.

small boys love to throw stones
and love better to hit the mark, be
1t the side Of . house, . pane of
glass or another boy. This seems
to be an impulse that rises out Of
an ancient inheritance. Maybe our
long-ago ancestors who threw stones
to bring down their dinner passed
1t along to us, but certainly every
boy has 1t in him, to the great
distress Of his parents.
Our present civilization makes
stone-throwing a dangerous risk.
There is too much glass about and
too many people. Throwing a stone
at flying bird out on q vast prairie
is one thing, but tossing such q
missile in crowded block or play
ground is quite another.
This impulse is stronger in some
children than in others. With most
Of them it is easily laid to rest. The
small boy throws a few stones;
complaints are made against him;
he is informed, If need be, punished,
and the stone-throwing Is done
with. But some lads are not so
easily trained. For them this i'm
pulse to throw and hit is a strong
one that must be expressed, to the
grief Of other people.
One Of the best ways to lay the
ghost is to give the boy a chance
to throw and hit the mark. A
basket ball and its basket will fur
nish all the opportunity needed.
Once get such boy busy with his
basket ball outfit and he is well on
the road to forgetting about the
stones. Hand ball is another good
game for boys in this stage Of
growth. Any game that calls for
a target Is good also, but be careful
about giving 10-year- boys with
this impulse any weapon such as q
gun or arrow. The throwing games
are best for him.
Some Of these boys do not throw
stones save in anger, and that is
a bothersome problem for parents
and teachers. The impulse does
not rise until anger rouses it, so
that the game is not as effective as
one could wish. But the training
In good will, and sportsmanship
that the games effect, do help the
boy to self-control and in that way
are useful. That must be backed
by the instruction that instils in
the child's mind the sporting princi-
pie that stone throwing is in the
same class as kicking and punching
below the belt. No sportsman would
consider such actions. Such things
are not done and that ends it.
What is one to do when the stone
has been thrown and the other per-
son hit? Or the glass broken? Keep
calm. Wait until you and the boy
are in full control of your minds
and then talk it over like sane,
civilized people. Make clear to the
boy, II you can, the damage that
has been done and wait for him to
suggest way Of reparation. Don't
threaten him with the police and
the jail and the scaffold. Keep your
head. What he needs is the weight
of responsibility for his action. Let
him carry as much of it as possible.
II he hurt somebody let him
that Is, lead him-to want to ask
about the sufferer, call on him, try
to make all possible amends for his
mistake. If he has done material
damage let as much of the bill for
it touch his own resources as you
can manage to place there. Expert
ence must teach the futility and the
danger Of stone throwing.

look bedraggled and damp, and the
seas kick up such q rumpus that
fish aren't to be coaxed out of the

me, anyway, how smugly confident
we have all become about getting
our widely varied food supplies like

vastly to the credit of our market

to be found here and there, and

real you, because you keep yourself
within your shell like timid turtle.
These suggestions are designed to
help you stick your head out!
AS we pointed out in Tuesdays
column, shyness is almost a synonym
for self consciousness. You feel fear
ful and awkward and embarrassed
and wonder what kind of q terrible
impression you are making on other
people. Your theme song is "How
Am I Doing?" played in q very
tragic, pessimistic key.
Anything that gets your mind of
yourself will help greatly to Danish
your shyness. When you meet q
stranger, quit worrying about what
he will think Of you. Concentrate
on trying to remember his name, on
finding out something about him, on
putting him at ease. Remember, he
may be just as bashful as you are,
and he will be eternally grateful If
you give him a lead, get him started
talking. open up a subject where he
Is on familiar ground.
Try Saying What
You Think.
Recently, we heard Of q young
woman who cured her shyness when
being introduced by saying the first
thing that popped into her head, no
matter how bold or ridiculous 1t
seemed to her. Because her remarks
were completely spontaneous, they
were perfect icebreakers, and she
heartily recommends the system.
Try the idea some time when you
are in reckless mood!
Another good plan, when you find
yourself in a situation that makes
you feel hesitant and diffident, is to
make yourself remember the things
you can do well. Recall your former
victories and triumphs, no matter
how insignificant they may have
been. Soon you'll be thinking, well,
maybe these people are superior to
me in some ways, but I'm superior
to them in others. So we're all
even." And confidence will flow
back into your wobbling knees.
Still another device is to get your
mind off people entirely, and con-
centrate on outside matters. These
might be the costumes the dance
orchestra is wearing, the way the
party room is decorated, or the
equipment for playing a particular
game. You can often unite your
tongue on some such impersonal
subject when all other methods fail.
Always Wise to Try
Various Methods.
Some of these suggestions NAV
seem inconsistent with each other.
You may point out that you can't
concentrate on another person and
his interests. and remember your
own past triumphs, and study a
dance orchestra'S costumes all at
the same time. True, true! But
the point is, what works for one
Shy Steve or Stella is valueless to
another. We're telling you how
others actually overcome their BASH
ful tendencies. It's up to you to
choose the method that appeals
most to you, or try them all until
you've found the one that works.
The mere fact that you are trying
will go long way toward curing
your shyness.
Finally, here's a suggestion that
will do wonders for you, after you've
made a little progress. Let's sup
pose you're a boy and that you've
been embarrassed and self-con-
scious on every date you've ever
had. Pick out the shyest girl in
your school or your circle of &C
quaintances and ask her for a date.
She'll probably be frightened to
death-so frightened that she may
even refuse. If she does, keep trying
until you overcome her shyness.
