By HELEN VOGT.

About a week ago we mentioned
the fact that with summer almost
upon us it's time to be thinking
about your doses of sunshine and
ways to prevent the agony that often
accompanies them. We had so many
inquiries about sunburn creams and
lotions that it seems evident women
are we'll aware of the dangers con-
nected with the burning rays of the
about their effects.
This week end you'll probably take
your first real outdoor excursion.
The 30th of May holiday finds most
Of us focking to the beaches or coun-
try, and far too many of us forget
ting that the first burn of the year
is the dangerous one. So here is a
little advice offered by people who
are anxious to help you have the
happiest and most comfortable mo-
mentS out of doors.
Summer sunlight Is very potent
Although it has many beneficial
services in the way of supplying
vitamin D in the body, killing germs
and often aiding skin troubles, it is
not entirely helpful. Sunlight i'm
properly acquired produces pain
full, blistering burns, as we well know
OF course, the best way to avoid a
burn is to stay out of the sun as
much as possible. or to acquire a
tan. This latter method, which is
after all, the thing most of us de-
sire, gives protection against the
ultraviolet rays which cause the

actually had to beg my husband
to marry me and there never was
a marriage that turned out better.
My older sister was married the
same way and she, too, is as happy
as can be. MRS. G. F. P.
AnsWer-Well, we'll, who would
have thought it? There are excep-
tons to all rules-especially in mar
riage-but, despite the success OF
your and your sisters method OF
getting husbands, it is still true that
most men who have to be dragged
to the altar make balky husbands
who are poor yokemates.
But maybe. after all, your expert
ence proves my favorite theory, that
we should have more and better
and happier marriages If women
did the proposing. Undoubtedly
women are wiser in love than men
are. Many one knows that she
is the right mate for some man
who has never discovered it for
himself, but who could be sold the
idea if she could properly present
it to him. And also many an old
bachelor could be gathered into the
matrimonial fold if some pretty CIR
begged and begged him to marry
her until she wore down his re.
sistance. Certainly it is an idea.

please tell me how I can get a
date with her. IS. p"
Apparently you've been little too
ready to take mo" for an answer
even when the girl doesn't actually
say it. Probably all she needs is a
little urging.
It would be a good idea to figure
out an evenings entertainment which
you know she would enjoy. 1t might
be particularly good movie, or you
could take her somewhere to dance.
Then ask her very definitely for the
date by saying, I'D like to take you
to see Deanna Durbin next Thursday
night I hear it's a fine picture. y
Or There's good orchestra playing
at the Trianon. Could you go dane
ing with me Friday night? I'd be
awfully happy If you would"
Some such specific suggestion is
far more apt to get yes from the
girl than vague request for just
date" She'll be obligated to give
you definite answer. Then, If she
declines your invitation, you'll know
there is some good reason behind her
conduct, and you can ask her just
what the trouble is.

Anniversaries
Celebrated
Together
Charming Idea for
Couples to Plan
Double Party
By EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: Would it be
improper for friends to celebrate
their silver wedding anniversary with
us? I mean, would it be wrong If
we went together and gave big
party since our anniversaries fall on
the same day and our friends are
practically the same anyway?
AnSWer-A double silver wedding
anniversary would be very unusual,
because the situation is unusual, but
1 think the idea delightful as we'll
as sensible. In fact, if you were to
give separate parties on the same
evening, your friends would be thor
oughly miserable, either running
back and forth between parties or
having to regret one in order to &C
cept the other. You would, of course,
receive together-taking turns per-
haps standing nearest the door, and
you would each have silver deco
rated wedding cake at opposite ends
of the table. 1t all sounds very ap-
pealing.
DEAR MRS. POST. Will you tell
my maid for me that it is not good
taste to put dolly on serving
tray? She argues that in every
other house she has worked they
wanted her to put dolly on the
tray and that she's quite sure I'm
wrong.
AnsWer-She should not put a
dolly on a serving tray when she
is passing things around the table
They are used on dishes and on
platters and I have also heard of
their being used on trays at the
clearing of the table This is merely
to keep the implements which are
gathered together at that time from
being scratched or from scratching
tho tray
