Manners
of the
Moment

When a girl starts posing on the
dance floor I always feel like step
ping up and giving her sound pad
ding. Not that it's any of my busi-
ness. But I feel that she's headed
for fall, and the sooner she gets
it the better.
These odd handholds and STACEY
facial expressions are dead give
away that the girl is working awfully
hard at making an impression. And
she makes one, all right. But not OF
the right sort.
In the first place. if it's the man
with whom she is dancing whom she
wishes to impress. she's off on the
wrong foot. He will be annoyed at
being made conspicuous. It's not
often that a man enjoys having all
eyes focused on his dancing
If it's some other gentleman whom
she is trying to impress, she's off on
two wrong feet. He has a better
chance than her partner to notice
how conspicuous she makes herself
And he will avoid her as he would a
ladies' tea party.
A good nimble pair Of feet are a
girls best asset on a dance floor
And when she can remember that
and forget the novel handholds and
the theatrical eye manipulations
she'll begin to have a good time.
At least, that's the way it looks to
me. JEAN.

CHAPTER NINETEEN.

CHAPTER NINETEEN.
How can you make round face
took oval? Here's the secret ::
Lengthen 1t and then try for width
at the top.
Then you certainly won't wear
the hair f1uffed out at the cheeks
And you won't cut down the length
with bangs or narrow the forehead
with dips
No, you'll draw the hair back be-
hind the ears and off the forehead
and build 1t up at the temples.
A center part is good because 1t
engthens the face. Often a round
face has a small nose.
In that case this same center
part will give that insignificant fea-
ture much-needed prominence.
Tiny Dabs.
Often, too, this type has for brows
tiny, rather straight dabs that ac-
cent the roundness of cheeks and
chin.
A round-faced woman can solve
this by penciling the brows as shown
In our right-hand sketch in a sort
Of modification of Marlene Dietrich s
one-time winged effect.
This gives you gratifying eye width
and ovalizes your face remarkably
As We said before. no one should
wear round spots Of rouge.
That goes especially for the round
face which should subdue round
lines wherever possible-your cheeks
are quite round enough already.

Eggs: At least two or three q
week for adults, at least four or five
for young children, some in cook

Meat, fish or poultry: Five times

Serve cereal dish daily, and
bread and butter at every meal
In this plan the most common
diet faults are carefully guarded
against.
First calcium. Calcium is pro-
vided In milk-milk of all kinds
and cheese. Skim milk is at least
as rich in calcium as whole milk,
and milk does not lose its calcium
when it is dried. evaporated, con-
densed or made into cheese. Leafy
green vegetables may meet much of
the body's need for calcium If they
are served frequently and eaten In
generous quantltleS.
Diet Supplies
the Needs.
The plan keeps the need for vita
min A In mind from beginning to
end. A daily serving of leafy, green
or yellow vegetables provides this
vitamin in its least expensive form.
Such vegetables provide this vita
min in its least expensive form
Such vegetables as carrots and
sweet potatoes. and leafy green's as
kale. spinach and turnip tops. are
excellent choices. Milk-that is
whole milk-butter. egg yolks and
tomatoes also furnish vitamin A.
Ascorbic acid (vitamin c. is pro-
vided in the daily serving of toma-
toes or citrus fruits. These foods
are especially good, partly because
their acid helps protect the vita
min, but nearly all the fresh fruits
and vegetables we eat furnish as
corbic acid. Eat some raw fruits or
vegetables every day" is good slo-

To be sure of generous supply
OF Vitamin Bl tthiamin) choose
whole grain cereals and other foods
that are not highly refined and serve
dried beans and peas often. Pork
muscle and chicken and certain
vital organs are rich sources of
thiamin, and most of the nat
ural" foods such as milk, fruits and
vegetables furnish some.
Leafy and green vegetables and
whole grain cereals are inexpensive
sources Of iron. Egg yolk are rich
in this mineral. and some of the
other good food sources are liver
and dried fruits.

Serve Dinner

This Is Fine Way
OF Entertaining
BY EMILY POST.

Dear Mrs. Post: We would like to
give a dinner but our dining room
is too small to seat the number of
people. had thought of having q
buffet but my husband takes the
attitude that others cannot pos
sibly like buffet meals any better
than he does. AS possible alterna-
tive he has suggested inviting our
friends to the house to have cock
tails and then taking them to
neighborhood restaurant where we
would have ordered everything be-
forehand, and bringing them home
afterward to play bridge. I, on tho
other hand, think we could manage
to serve five card tables by standing
them in the living room and SUM-
room, both Of which are very big
rooms. We have one maid and
would have another one for this
occasion. What would your pref
erence be If, let us say, you found
yourself in a similar situation to
this?
Answer-I would give the dinner

little doubt that your friends would
rather stay in one place instead of
coming and going and coming back
again. Buffet parties are essential
to many hostesses whose houses are
not very big. But as you have the
space there couldn't be anything
nicer than a dinner at little tables.
Two maids can do the serving per-
fectly. especially if you choose fewest
but most substantial dishes that
will necessarily make service as SIM
pie as possible.

! smudge of powder on your fore
head?
This business of careful grooming
cannot be too strongly stressed. If
the modern girl would realize that
it takes but moment more to give
herself complete "once over be-
fore going out. what a set of better
groomed ladies We would all be!
When you think that you can get
away" with minimum of beauty
care you are mistaken, for there
never was a well-groomed woman
who overlooked the so-called minor
items. Our suggestion is this:
Adopt beauty routine and never
step outside the privacy of your
boudoir without checking over it.
You might make up system such
as this: Survey yourself first in a
full-length mirror to get the entire
effect. See that seams of stockings
are straight, your shoes neatly
heeled and polished or brushed,
your dress hanging straight and
your jeWelry not overpoWering. Re-
member the French idea that a
woman never dresses without sur
veving herself to see how much
surplus attire she could remove and
still be presentable. During this
full-length checkup, also cast a
critical eye at colors. No matter
how dark blue that belt may be, it
is going to show against the black
dress-and somebody will notice.
And don't let this craze for color
ruin your sense of harmony when it
comes to combining bright tones.
Next you will proceed to the
dressing table mirror. Is rouge
neatly and sparingly applied in the
correct position on your face? Are
your eyelashes darkened but not
sticking together in stiff clumps?
Did you pluck the few stray hairs
that grow haphazardly around your
eyebrows? Of course you applied
powder we'll, using a brush to re-
move excess. and your lipstick is
put on evenly-with none on your
teeth - but does your makeup
match your costume? You can
afford one or two complete sets of
cosmetics. you know.
Then-oh. horrible step!-go after
your magnifying mirror for the final
check. 1t will tell you whether
there are little clots of powder scat
tered hither and yon, and will in
form you whether you have ap-
piled eye shadow properly. In spite
of the fact that this all sounds long
and lengthy, it will really take but
few minutes.
Above all, don't let any one tell
you that these things are unneces-
sary, explaining that a natural ap-
pearance is best 1t is quite true
that to look completely devoid of
artificiality is fine thing, but the
unfortunate part Of the idea is that
Mother Nature left so many things
undone. Perhaps she didn't make
your eyelashes or brows dark
enough. your hair curly enough, or
supplied a mouth too small or too
large. All these things can be rene

But you can taper them by ap-,
plying the rouge as diagramed-
beginning it low and quite near the
nose and extending it as always
around the curve of the cheek.
In making up your mouth, avoid
a round, pouting effect. Keep your
lips fairly thin and delicate.
This will not only eliminate round
lines; it will make the mouth seem
wider, too.
And that will make the chin seem
narrower and rather more pointed
like the oval-faced type
Hats for the round face should
be tall to give your face length.
Straight lines are out because they
emphasize your curves, and round
lines are out for the same reason.
That leaves dashing little caps
like the one in our right-hand
sketch. tilted well askew.
Their diagonal lines will break up
the perfect circle of your face and
their decided tilt will leave enough
Of your upswept coiffure showing to
imply actual face length.
Also, quite naturally, the round
face should shun button earrings
and chokers.
Do all this and your face will
never look round at all except in
the privacy Of your dressing room
or your beauty salon when you have
scrubbed off your makeup and let
down your hair.

Ny Neighbor Soys:

If you would keep flowers
fresh when you receive them
from the florist, put them in the
ice box for an hour or two, or
until you need them for your

If practicable, to keep them in

Don't rub lard into flour with

One of these fine days, instead of

museum of horrible examples
Into these sacred corridors will be

hope that one special room will be
dedicated to the problem of beauty.

This same young lady is seen

that she ignores have made her

This false optimism is a danger

they know whether your fingernail

Appoon the Spending Your Food Dollar Include Necessary

By ANGLO PATRI.

It Is too bad that so many Of us
make goodness drab and dreary
way of being, giving the devil all
the good tunes" But 1t seems as
though some people just can't help
putting on a serious face, speaking
tudicially and solemnly and point
ing the way, the minute they get
with children.
Goodness is not like that. Birds
are good. Nobody ever hears of
q bad robin or naughty wren.
Dogs are good, too. If they make
a mistake their owners are to blame
for 1t, not they. Monkeys are good,
too, and they have a lovely time.
All Gods creatures are good, and
they have lots of fun. They sing,
If they are birds, and play hide and
seek and tag and Old Mother Witch
and do their work with perfect sue
cess.
Mother dogs play with puppies,
and father dogs too, and they don't
preach solemn sermons on all oc-
casions. They roll the puppies out
on the floor, teach them to get
about their business, and always
with cheerful humor. Monkeys
are always grinning happily and
having fun; nobody can accuse them
of not being on their job whatever
1t happens to be-f1ea- catching or
dancing to the music of the organ
man. Only humans take life so
seriously that doing their children
good drives all thought of fun out
of their heads.
When father and the boys 20 on
q holiday father need not feel that
he must be good example all day
long. He can rest assured that his
past has recorded itself in the
minds of his children and they know
to an inch what to expect from
him. The sudden turning good on
them leaves them cold, and injured
in their feelings of holiday fun.
Just being natural. getting all the
fun out of things will serve the
purpose much better.
Nobody, especially a child, likes
to be the victim of another's sacri-
flee. 1t is human to resent such
imposition of goodness. It bores,
when it does not anger, its recipient,
and the benevolence of the idea is
scorned without grace or gratitude.
But parents can do children good
If they just don't work at it. Laugh
ter does them a world of good. 1t
makes them feel one with their
partners, and being a partner in
laughter is about the jolliest ex-
perlence any parent can have.
And sharing the sport is another
good way. Just tagging along, TAX
ing what comes. digging for worms
or searching for nuts. packing the
leftovers or raking the ashes of
the f1re-just sharing In common
snnoyances and delights-knits the
family closer.
Goodness seeps through one soul
TO another. 1t isn't imposed by
one will upon another. Never
that. 1t just leaks out like sunshine
filters through laughing clouds.
