do not dance but shall certainly
stay with them in the background.
Answer: You will not need any,
thing more formal than a combi-
nation jacket-oyer-evening-dress in
a printed sheer. Nothing is so use
full, especially if of crush resist
ant material. For ordinary use,
wear the jacket. For evening wear,
leave off the jacket.
This combination type of dress
is easy to find everywhere and at
almost any price. Get a plain
color If you like It better than a
print. 1 suggest! the print only
because it is practically unspoil-
able, whereas plain color fades and
increases and tells everyone about
it. A print always keeps its face
fresh and smiling.

to say on this subject as I have

These people have two fine
young sons, about IL and Is. They
are intelligent. well-msnnered lit
lie fellows and their father is an

The mother Is a weak. pretty wo-
man who Is more concerned with
social activities than she Is with
her children.
They are perfect examples Of
selfish parents. for, although the
father Is well-to-do. they have but
one radio and he will not let the
little fellows listen to any of their
favorite programs after he comes
home. They love the baseball
games but he won't allow them
to listen-in even long enough to
get the score. He just sits back
and grunts with satisfaction when
some cheap comedian or program
comes on that he likes. And the
mother whines and tells the boys
not TO bother her when they beg
for a cheap little radio for their

JUST PRACTICE
ACCEPTING PRAISE

The ideal way to get into the
habit of accepting compliments,
thus making the payer of them
feel pretty good in return, is TO
practice with a member of your
family or some good friend who
won't think you're silly just be-
cause you want TO correct fault.
Let her tell you how nice you look
over and over until YOU can say,
Thanks so much. I'm glad you
think So" without feeling en-
harrassed or looking it.
The only other method is TO have
two-way conversations with your
self while standing in front Of a
mirror. Either method will work
If you stick to il, firm in your
determination TO be a poised in
dividusl who can look and act as
gracious as you really are inside.

Beauty Hints

You've been a good girl about
sticking to your diet. brushing your
hair and keeping the polish on your
nails. And you've really learned
to put into practice the rules you
read about buying clothes to suit
your type and figure. You're chic
these days. Others think so, too,
because they tell you.
However, are you quite sure that
they have as high an opinion of
your smartness after they have
complimented you as they had be-
fore? Think carefully. II you
never have learned TO accept COM
pliments charmingly, then the an
swer is no.
Chic or smartncss, after all. has
to do with you, your manners and
mannerisms, as we'll as with your
makeup and clothes. She who says,
"Why. I can't imagine why you
like this" when someone finishes
telling her how nice her new hat
is proclaims her lack OF poise. And
there's no chic without poise.
II you don't know how to ac-
cept compliments charmingly, it's
high time you learned. Being
brusk, almost to the point of rude
ness. simply to cover up embarrass-
ment, Is a little sad but not ex-
actly excusable.

Hopeful of attracting a record

against too-lengthy programs, the
District A. A. U. Boxing Committee
last night voted to extend its an
nual championship series over a
five-weeks period this year.
The affair will open November II

candidates working up gradually to
the championship round December
Is. Chairman Bill Mulligan said
the committee believed the plan
would suit fans and contestants
alike, and would relieve the strain
on the ringmen.
Last years tournament drew lO2
entrants but Mulligan is confident
that the coming championships will
find at least 125 youngsters battling
for titles. All prospective entrants
are requested to pursue planned
training program through october
to be fit when called for medical ex-
animation.
The tournament will be divided
into two classes, junior and senior,
the younger class being restricted
to boys who never have won an
open title. Bouts will be conducted
in eight classes, ranging from ban
tamWeights to heavyweight.
