Of an automobile.
And now for a new and different
party idea, submitted by Mrs. H. s.
T., who writes:
"Just a note of appreciation for
your column. Your party ideas have
helped me greatly in entertaining.
Il want to pass along the idea for
a hostess party which has been
one Of the most successful plans
have ever used.
Each couple invited is asked to
act as host and hostess for not more
than 10 minutes of fun, conducting
some game of their own choice.
They also supply 10-cent prize to
the winner of their particular game.
This plan gives the real hostess
OF the evening chance to sit down
and join in the fun. And the acting
hosts and hostesses simply love it!
'The games are also more fun. and
the small cost of prizes is insignifi-
cant. You can give parties more
frequently because the hostess has
to buy only one prize, and run only
one game. The rest of the time, she
can join the fun herself and attend
to her guests
An excellent idea, Mrs. T.-par-
ticularly for clubs or crowds who
know each other we'll and have fire.
quent parties. It's also splendid
way to give your less party-wise
friends some valuable practice in
conducting games and acting as
hosts and hostesses.
Have you suggestion to make
to readers Of this column? Ora
party idea that has proved sue
cessful for you? If 50, we'll be
delighted to hear from you, and
to pass your tips along to our
other readers. Let's all cooperate

Dorothy Dix Says
Many Unsung Heroes Are Women
Who Have Helped Husbands

Among the unsung heroes Of the
depression have been those women
who have gone out and got jobs
when their husbands couldn't. They
not only supported their families,
but also did the cooking and wash
ing besides, and poured whatever
energy and strength they had left
into keeping their respondent men
bucked up and hoping for a better
day.
I am sorry for any man who is
unlucky enough to draw q wife who
is Stacker in the matrimonial
lottery. But I haven't quite as
many tears to shed over him as
have over the woman who has a no
account husband. For If a man has
determination and energy enough
he can do a lot in turning the
woman to whom he is married into
the kind of wife he wants, whereas
there is very little a wife can do in
correcting her husbands faults.
Virtually every girl who marries
loves her husband and wants to
make him good wife. When she
fails to do so-he is just as much
to blame as she is. AS a bride he
can develop her into what he wants
her to be or he can spoil her so
that she becomes nothing but a lazy
parasite. If men would take as
much time and trouble to teach
their brides how to be efficient wives
as they do to teach new stenog-
rapher how to be a good secretary,
husbands wouldn't have so much
to complain about.

Treatments
Improving
The Skin
Our Grandmother
Favorite' Beauty
Aid Still Good
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Ever since you were wee child
you have been told that glycerin
and rose water is an excellent pro-
lection against the chapping of win
ter winds. But don't suppose you
realize just how many beauty uses
bottle of good glycerin has. You
may buy 1t at drugstore and mix
some very efflcacious connections for
yourself.
Those of you who play much out
under the sun frequently come home
with a fresh sprinkling of freckles.
Right then is the time to mix up
glycerin and lemon juice in equal
parts and apply it to your face 1t
doesn't actually rid you of freckles
but it dims them considerably.
About this time you wish you
hadn't allowed the sun to coat your
hands with freckles and deep tan.
So you think of a bleach. Take one
part of rubbing alcohol, one part of
glycerin and two parts. of lemon
juice and shake it together vigor-
ously. That, my dears, will make
your hands shade or two lighter
if you use it daily for a week!
To tone down sun-reddened nose
and smooth peeling skin follow
this simple routine. Bathe the skin
in one pint of water to which has
been added heaping teaspoonful
of EPSON salts. Rinse in clear water
and pat on glycerin diluted in warm
water. Both the sting and redness
will vanish, unless you are about in
the sunstroke stage.
If you have difficulty in getting
your lipstick on smoothly you must
do something to restore your lips
petallike smoothness. Each night
anoint them with the richest lubri-
eating cream on which you can lay
your hands. Then during the day
at intervals dab on with absorbent
cotton some of the following mixture
and allow it to dry on your lips
no licking it off even if it does taste
and smell good! CThis is also good
for elbows-to soften them and
whiten them)
One ounce Of rose water.
One-quarter ounce of witch hazel.
One-quarter ounce of glycerin.
Few drops of geranium oil.
Have your druggist mix it well to-
gether and pour into bottle, which
you must shake each time before
using.

Dear Dorothy Dix: Why Is
1t that so many married women
are such poor sports-such out-and-
out gold-diggers-such lazy Jumps?
Fully half of those in my neighbor-
hood are just spoiled brats. One of
them quite casually nags a good
husband into nervous prostration.
Another has a system all worked
out to make her husband do most
Of her housework while she enjoys
. headache, but she is always set
to play bridge in the afternoon.
Still another goads her husband on
to earn more money SO she can
drive the family car to a distant
city to spend a month or so with
her family three or four times a
year while he rides the streetcar
and eats canned beans at home.
Hardly wife in my whole acquaint-
ance really earns her salt. All of
them are immeasurably better of
than they would be working in an
Office. Do women marry just to get
easy meal tickets? A HUSBAND.
Answer-No doubt a lot of them
do. No one can deny that there
are plenty of lazy, trif1ing wives
who take all and give nothing. There
are wives who regard their hus-
bands as nothing more than slaves
to work and support them and get
not even a thank you" for their
labor.
But there are good wives as well
as bad ones. The great majority
of married women do not WEIGH on
their end Of the matrimonial part
nership. They work and scrimp
and save to help their husbands
get a start in the world. When
misfortune comes they take it with
out whining or complaining and do
not hesitate to put their shoulders
to the wheel to try to drag the
family car out of the ditch into
which 1t has fallen.

calling boys on the telephone, but I
wish you'd 60 back to the subject
long enough to cover one more point.
Girls who are eternally and un-
necessarily telephoning a boy annoy
him and his whole family. But even
an occasional, necessary call can
give girl black eye if she acts as
did girl who called Ben last week.
when I answered the phone, this
girl cried, 'H'lo, is Ben there?'
"'I'm sorry, but he's OUT I re-
piled. I was about to ask if there
was any message, but before I had
chance, she uttered an exclama-
ton Of annoyance, and slammed
down the receiver.
Later, I learned who the girl was,
and as far as I am concerned, she
Is stamped forever as a rude and
stupid young woman. When I told
my son about the incident, he made
q wry face and said, Don't mind
her, Nom. She's just a cluck.'
ION the other hand, some girls
who call Ben really know how to
make good impression on the tele-
phone. One girl in particular, who
was working with Ben on a club
dance and called him frequently, al
ways left me with a pleasant taste
In my mouth.
"She would usually recognize my
voice and say, Is that you, Mrs. C.?
This is Betty L. Is Ben there?'
If I told her he was out, she would
say something like If it's not too
much trouble, would you ask him
to call me this evening? I have
those punch bowl prices he wanted
me to get Then she'd thank me,
say good-by pleasantly, and hang
up"
There's a real tip for you, girls!
It's smart to make good impression
on a boys mother. And it's un-
forgivably stupid to be rude over q
telephone.
The 17-year-old girls mother also
has an excellent bit Of advice for
| girls.
Marion tells me that some Of her
friends put boy on the spot by
never knowing when to go home.
Then when they come stealing In
with the morning milk, the boy gets
the blame.
Most boys will ask their date
when she is expected to be home,
and make an honest effort to get
her there on time. But some girls
seem to think that they prove their
sophistication or their independence
by being night owls. They refuse
to leave any party until they're
thrown out. The boys are helpless
in situation like that, and they
get into trouble at both ends-with
the girls parents, and their own.
Here's one other thought.
think it's up to every boy and girl
in their late teens to help teach
their younger brothers and sisters
traffic safety. With thousands of
children being killed by automobiles
every year, your young moderns'
have a real opportunity and a real
responsibility to help save some of
these lives"
We want to endorse those two
suggestions with every bit of en-
phasis we possess. Our younger
brothers and sisters naturally follow

stuffed into tiny patty shells; We
have had hot mushrooms dripping

and tucker; we have had furiously
colored potato chips to dunk in q

thoroughly impregnated with chives

the less said of them the better!
II has been great game, this
business OF trying to outdo the other
fellow IN the matter of appetizers
So maybe the next cue is to go back
to the old and simple ways, and serve

of a more digestible and reasonable
kind.
Sometimes a first course of appe-
Tiers is welcomed by the "home
folks" even when there is no party
in the off1ng. If children are to be
present at the meal, there could be
no better or simpler aperitifs than
those made with eggs. We are CIV

today-the "dressier" ones may easily
become pieces de resistance at your
next cocktail party.

BY ANGELO PATRI.

Aunt Lou was IN charge OF the
children, father ad mother having
gone on short vacation. Go along
and stay as long as you like" said
Aunt Lou heartily. "I'll manage the
children, never you fear" And right
there and then the management
started.
The two children were sisters, s,
going on 7, and short 8. They got
along as well as little sisters this
age usually do, with now and then
squabble and making-up to make
things lively. They weren't too good
for this world nor too bad for human
associations, so Aunt Lou thought
she could do very we'll with them.
The first thing that went wrong
was at meal time the second eve
ming. Lily, the older one, ate her
dessert much faster than Rose did
hers and after an envious look or
two reached over and dipped up
generous spoonful and swallowed it
before Rose could empty her mouth
to shrek.
Whats the trouble?" inquired
Aunt Lou, going swiftly to the table
In the corner of the dining room
Aunt Lou was one who believed that
children should eat by themselves,
no grown-up atmosphere about their
meals.
Lilly took big piece of my ice
cream" said Rose.
mot big piece at all. Only a
taste"
But you had your own dessert
Why did you do such thing?"
"Just to help her get through
with it. Mother likes her to finish
her meals on time and she always
dawdles If you don't make her
hurry. must see that she finishes.
Mother told me to-
very good of you, I'm sure," said
Aunt Lou. We'll see. Finish your
dessert, Rose"
Mother told me not to hurry,
ever, when I ate," said Rose, with
an even holier attitude than Lily
had taken.
"Very well. Just get through with
It," said Aunt Lou, beginning to feel
something pressing upon her hith-
erto peaceful mind.
True to her idea that the children
should have their meals uninter-
rupted by the presence of interfer-
ing adults, Aunt Lou retired, but
thoughtfully. Something here she
did not feel quite sure about.
No sooner was Aunt Lou out of
sight than Lily spooned the remain
ing ice cream from her sisters dish
and SO rapidly and neatly was it
done that poor Rose could do no
more than gasp and swallow as fast
as she could what little fell to her
share. When the two appeared in
the living room before their aunt,
Rose plainly out Of sorts, Lily swag-
gering defensively, Aunt Lou asked
again what was wrong.
Lilly ate up all my dessert"
"She did? Lily, you ought to be
ashamed. Rose, tomorrow night
we are to have lovely baked apples
for dessert and you shall eat all OF
Lily's apple as well as your own"
Rose turned pale and ran from

"She hates baked apple" said
Lily, with smooth distinctness
