THE RIDICULE IS DANGEROUS WEAPON---FOR THE USER

But there are times when it is human to resent razzing. Any girl who wants to get a man in love with her or keep him that way ought to realize those times.
 Aside from not trying to be funny at his expense when he is obviously not in the mood for be- ing kidded, a girl ought to be an all-admiring audience when a man puts over deal, gets a raise or receives an honor.
 WHEN KIDDING
 IS BOOMERANG
 Poking fun at him at a time like that is dangerous business. No matter how off-hand he seems about the matter, he really wants to be patted on the back. And if one girl doesn't show she's proud and pleased, he's sure to look around for a smarter girl who will. Another time when the kidding line is no-go is when a man wants sympathy.
 Still another time is when A man is on the subject of his am- bitions and plans for the future. He wants understanding" then, and he won't take anything else and like 1t.
 Kidding is 8 dangerous indul- gence for a woman. Because no matter how she dishes 1t out, for the moment she is being the very opposite of feminine.

PATTERN 869
 This up with the birds" style with its handy front-butoning, has a fresh look that challenges wilted, warm-weather spirits. A Claire Tilden special, it will take just a flash to run up Pattern 869 right at home, yet you'll wear 1t through the rest of summer and into fall. Just wait till you see how those long, princess seams streamline your curves-they,re easy to stitch too! And what graceful line the soft neck makes. Leave the collar plain or sew on a dainty frill edge, with cuffs to match. The neck-to- hem opening that lets you spread this dress out flat for easy ironing would be dashing with a double row of buttons, perhaps in a color to match a contrasting collar. If you use checked fabric, make the side front and back panels on the bias.
 Pattern 869 Is cut in misses and women's sizes IA, 16, IS. 20, 32, 34. 36. S8, and 40 Size 16 requires { 3-8 yards 39 inch fabric and 7-8 yards ruffling.

z. while it is true of some houses, particularly those with thick walls, most bedrooms in summer are about the last places to cool off.
 If Timmy and the baby have been accustomed to a 2 o'clock bedtime, what with daylight sav- ing and the sun still high and hot. 1t does seem too bad to have them stewing up there, a sacri- lice to a plan, just because 1t IS a plan, don't you agree?
 Surely the sky wouldn't fall If their bedtime were moved back an hour to eight or even half-past eight. And they will make up the lost hours in the morning.
 Yes, you're right. It is a relief to get them into bed and have some peace and rest when your husband is home I am with you there. All day long you've been on your feet trying to keep them fed, cool and happy. I know ex- actly what 1t means. But do you really get much rest with the baby crying and Timmy constant ly calling because he can't sleep?
 Don't let them stay up till all hours, of course. Their beds can be moved so they get plenty of air. Beds close to a wall are apt to be airless and hot. Try moving them to the middle of the room, or even right close to the window. But nights in summer are uncer- tain. In split second, almost, chill wind may rise and that is not so good.
 BE PRACTICAL
 ABOUT RULES
 A cooling bath (tepid) at bed- time in summer is a treat. Besides, 1t rests tangled nerves and usually summons the sandman.

Hollywood Likes Fragile Frills For
 Midsummer
BY LUCIE NEVILLE NEA Service COFreSpOndent

Hollywood - With midsummer nights just right for dancing and good name bands playing in the hot spots along Sunset Strip, there has been rush for evening gowns that are sentimentally summerish. Noth- ing dramatic or stark about these frilly, floating dresses. They're made to dance in and no "Chestnut-Tree" strutting and skipping, either. Materials are thin and fragile no heavy cottons such as pique or kitchen-curtain ginghams, and you'd have to hunt all over town to get white satin dress. Chiffons, nets and tulles, old-fashioned or- gandies and crinkle-weave sheer cottons are the order of the day. The gals who can't abide - or, wear ruffles are choosing silk jersey, and the frocks are mostly the two piece match 'em- yourself kind: full white skirt topped with Kelly green blouse, a pen- cil blue with a lipstick red polo shirt. With these, chokers of gold links or triple-stranded white coral usually are worn.
 SONIA SPLURGES
 FOR THE HOME FOLKS
 Two blondes who went to visit their home towns chose as frilly
 evening frocks as they could find to represent Hollywood fashions Sonia Henie, on her annual jaunt to Oslo, really splurged on dress of the finest white silk ret-made with simple square neckline and puffed sleeves but its yards-wide skirt shir- red onto cordings of apple-green silk with a deep fitted waistline of the green. She'll probably bring back some new Norwegian styles she was full year ahead with Tyrolean embroidered suspender frocks.

THE CAT EATS FISH AND
 SEES IN THE DARK

l THE CAT EATS FISH AND
 SEES IN THE DARK
 Snap on the light suddenly in the night and there is @ fair chance you'll catch some neighbours cat fishing in the pool. For a while the goldfish mortality was heavy through the winter months, until we solved the mystery and removed the con- venient platforms for cats to fish from. Now the fishes get break and few are caught, for they have chance to react to the thrust if the cat has to sit back foot from the brink. Tn the summer young birds and other prey keep the cat on optimal vitamin rations.
 The instinctive fondness for fish is well known to everyone who ever owned a cat. Likewise milk and egg yolk. Aside from the ordinary nu- tritive value of these foods, the cat gets something else from them that may not be available in other foods and is as essential for the health and functional efficiency of cat as it is for the health and func- tional efficiency of a human being. Guess what. Aw, shucks, I've already mentioned 1t. Besides, l may be penalized if I continue to harp on that subject.
 If you have arrived at this point permit me to mention that accord ing to the U. S. Department of Agri- cultures fifteen cent publication "Vitamin Content of Foods (send the price for copy to Government Printing Office, Washington, D. O, that superlative sea food, canned salmon, is perhaps the richest and best natural source of both of the oil-soluble vitamins, A and D, for men, women and children every where, and running almost neck and neck with canned salmon, as a source of these vitamins in the everyday diet, that other universally avail able seafood, canned sardines de- serve place in every family's pan- try. Of course both canned salmon and canned sardines are fine food staples apart from their high con- tent of vitamin A and vitamin D.
 The cats fondnesS for fish has a good deal to do with the ability of the animal to see in the dark. Fond- ness for fish may explain your or my ability to see in the dark or our relative comfort or security in driv- ing at night or our sensitivity to or indifference to the irritation or an- noyance which glare produces in some persons. Again it is necessary to mention that this is due to the vitamin A intake. If the intake of vitamin A is low, there is more or less night-blindness and difficulty in seeing in the dark or after dusk or after exposure to very bright light or glare. If the vitamin A intake is high, the night vision or dark field vision is better, glare is less blind ing, one can see better in the dark or in dimly lighted place.
 The red-yellow reflex shining from the eyes of cat Cor other animal or bird or human being) out of the dark has nothing to do with vitamin A. That is another story.

.BEAUTY------ Gloriying
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart

During the summer months, all women, regardless of age, type or occupation, have one problem in common: how to keep makeup on the skin.
 There are two ways in which the problem can be solved.
 First, you may hunt around un- til you find a foundation prepara- ton which will hold your regular face powder in place for hours at a time. Secondly, you may choose a liquid powder type of cosmetic which serves as foundation as well as powder.
 There are, of course, many vari- cities of liquid powders from which to pick and choose. One that is featured now is a thinner, lighter edition of an old favorite. Moisture proof, it comes in several shades to match any skin tone, is as thin as milk, can be blended in no time at all and really does not leave your skin with a taut, mask-like feeling as old-time liquid powders used to do.
 IT'S EASY TO
 CONTROL LOOKS
 To use liquid powders, simply clean face and throat, then pat on the powlery lotion. Distribute evenly from base of throat to hairlihe, let set for a moment or two, then whisk off the excess with powder brush or bit of fluffy cotton. Now apply dry rouge and lipstick. If you prefer cream rouge, apply 1t first, then gently pat liquid powder over the rouged areas.
 To make lipstick stay on, apply it lavishly, let it set for few seconds, lightly blot with cleansing pad, then
