Parents Who Seclude Children
Are Making Great Mistake

And, most of all. you must not let
your longing to get away from your
fathers tyranny make you marry
the first boy who comes along.
That is great danger that every
girl runs who is not allowed to be-
long TO the crowd and play around
with her schoolmates, and who can
never have the youngsters IN her
own home. She doesn't know boys
so she can't Judge between gentle
men and bounders. And she is will
ing to go anywhere to get away
from home, so she is likely to plunge
into an early marriage that wrecks
her life.
OF course, your father treats you
the way he does because he thinks
he is protecting you from the dan
gers of the world. He does not
realize that instead of doing that
he is simply throwing you to the
wolves. For he is not teaching you
how to take care of yourself, how to
walk warily among the pitfalls, how
to avoid the dangers that lie in
wait for every young girl. He is just
simply trying to shut you up in a
room that he considers safe and
pretend that such perils do not
exist.
Your father is trying to escape
reality He won't realize that you
have been born into a modern world
in which you have to live, and that
the wiser you are to it the safer you
will be. The thing to teach you Is
to know good from evil and choose
the right, not to try to keep you In
ignorance that such things are COM
mon.

Exercises

Reduce Your Thighs
By Splashing Legs
While in Bathing
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY

Streamlined legs and thighs are
cherished by all women and ad.
mired by all men! 1t has after
been stated that a svelte line from
waist to feet is Woman's most beau
tiful-that means pleasing curvine
hips, slim thighs and shapely legs
With such chassis any woman car
dress smartly and have a graceful
carriage. And her heavier sister
who allows extra pounds to settle
into unbecoming bulges, will GER
tainly suffer in a beauty COM
parison!
With summer here and bathing
days, the heavy thigh girl or woman
can exercise off those offending
pounds through a simple kicking
exercise which is done while you
are splashing around in the water
for fun or to cool off.
Sit on the shore of the lake, river
or sea with the water above your
Waistline. Support yourself by
placing both palms face downward
on the sand behind you-one hand
near each hip. Then allow your
legs to float up to the surface of
the water and kick violently. Kick
up and down as quickly and as
rhythmically as possible until you
are out of breath. Then rest them
on the sand bed for a moment or
so and repeat.
Then turn over and stand" on
your hands and kick as you did be-
fore. (Also good for frming ab-
domen muscles.)
OF course, if you can swim you
may kick your legs up and down
during the crawl or while you are
floating on your back. This is even
more efficacious than doing it on
the shore-for your muscles firm
more quickly. But remember you
must do it for Is or 20 minutes
with rest periods when you get out
of breath) if you wish to see results
in few weeks.
Another aquatic exercise which
streamlines your hips and thighs is
one which you do in water deeper
than your height. You try to stand
straight up in the water and walk
Keep your balance by using your
arms above the water. 1t is difficult
at first, but soon you will learn
how to take several steps before
you feel yourself sinking. To dc
this exercise you must of course
know how to swim. This move
ment strengthens your back, cor
rects faulty posture and slaps of
hip and thigh poundage. 1t is one
you can continue to do in swim
pool during the winter.
Between your visits to the beach
you should keep up corrective exer-
cises at home. 1t is not difficult
to get down and kick or bump your
way to slimness, and when you
realize how much better you will
feel once your obesity has been BAN
ished, you should be inspired te
exercise regularly. Don't be discour-
aged if few pounds and fewer inches
disappear the first two or three
weeks-keep exercising and in 8
month or two the figure you desire
will be yours. Remember how lone
it took for the extra pounds tt
settle! Allow as much time fol
them to be worked off!

LOBSTER SALAD.

In the West, and gradually more
and more in the East, light salad
in place of soup or cocktail as a
first course is becoming popular.
Here is one that can be made with
canned or cooked lobster and will
do much to whet the tired summer
appetite:
Use one cup lobster meat and add
to it a little grated onion. Marinate
it with a tart French dressing and
let it chill for one hour. Fill raw
tomato cases with the mixture and
top with a small amount of mayon-
naise. Sprinkle with parsley.

water. Add the sugar, salt, pine

Cool until nearly set. Then beat

and chill mixture until firm. Serve

You make your companion serve
as a dray horse He'll be glad to
carry package for you when neces-
sary, but don't constantly load him
down with your pocketbook, the coat
you think you might need, and the
three books you are returning on
your way to the movies.
You suffer from Showing Slip,
formerly known as Peeping Petit
coat.
You don't know how to manage
your skirt and your knees when you
sit down. Excessive exposure puts
fellow on the spot. 1t he looks at
you, he's embarrassed-or afraid
you'll be. 1t he looks anywhere else,
he's rude.
You're Telephone Chaser.
Don't call him unless it's absolutely
necessary, and then make it brief.
Pursuing a boy by telephone will
quickly mark you as wrong number.
You parade your intellectual
proves, making him feel stupid
and inferior by comparison.
Every date with you means a
long, dreary, wait while you finish
dressing. You may think it docs
man good" to cool his heels for
you-but it doesn't do YOU any
good. Be prompt, and if you can't
avoid a delay, tell him that you're
sorry.
You always want to 60 out, and
are never content to stay home. It's
only fair that you should provide
the entertainment once in while, so
look up good fudge recipe, get out
your favorite game, and try a parlor
date for once.
Well, that's the list, girls-the first
findings of our masculine sleuths
who have been checking up on your
dating department. Well bet that
plenty of you men readers have NUT
tered fervent "Amen!" while read
ing these feminine quirks and irks.
And we hope you'll take your pen in
hand, throw away your inhibitions,
and join the fun.

like? Tell us-and we'll tell the

in the princess. This design
Q798-BO, although it is severely sim
pie, and therefore practical for home
work or shopping, has all the fiat
terry of the princess silhouette.
Plenty of width at the shoulders
and hem, and a waistline that melts
in with delightful smoothness. It's
comfortable as can be, too, with am
pie armholes and an unconf1ning,
unbelted line.
Make this of gingham, linen or
pique for home wear-of fiat crepe
or tailored prints for the street. It's
so easy to make-as princess de-
signs always are-that you'll want
it in more than one material.

phatically, that the man who dates
you is far from pleased If
You wear extreme or immodest
clothes. A man may steal glances
at some other girls sensational
outfit, but he wants his own date
to be conservative. But don't fret!
Such an attitude on his part is
merely sign that he's really in
terested in you.
You talk too much or too loudly.
Men like a maid who is easy on
the eyes and also easy on the ears.
You chew gum with bovine con-
centration or noisy enthusiasm. He'll
be still more pleased if you don't
chew it at all.
You cast coy glances at the
other males at party. You don't
need to be Wallfower, but never
let your date doubt that he is head
man-at least for the evening.
You poster him constantly for
cigarettes. If you must smoke, be
moderate. And buy your own oc-
casionally. You'll win no popularity
prizes either by initiating a CHM
ney or by taking your date for
Santa Claus.
You look, talk or act hard" "
The term "lady-like" may make you
vince, but it's still a pretty sound
standard of conduct.
The perfume you use is too
heavy, or there's too much of it.
Men love perfume, but they don't
like it in bucketfuls. Be subtle
about it!
Your lpstick leaves red smears
on napkins, or on your teeth. And
choose a shade that suits your COL
oring.

That's the sort of thing that makes
even mild men wild.
You gush. Your date will eat
up sincere compliment, and he'll
glow with pleasure if you express
your appreciation for the good time
he gives you. But don't lay it on
too thick, or you'll embarrass him.
Your heels are turnover, or your
stocking seams are crooked Men
notice those details.

And it is funny-if it weren't so

Inability to cope" as someone ex-
pressively puts it. The children's
dog, that has been an angel of good

around and bites the delivery boy
he has welcomed for a year with
wagging tail. This means trouble
all around, trips to doctors, for the
delivery boy cat the dog owner S

the dog, tears for the children who
feel their pets disgrace with all the
poignance of childhood, and frayed
temper on the part of the man of
the house who has to pay the bills,
and never wanted the kids to have
a dog in town anyhow!
Then the vacuum cleaner seems
to take this time to "act up" just
when it is most important for fight

and upholstery. The refrigerator
heaves long, shuddering sigh and
gives up the ghost half an hour be-

And everybody in the house takes

There doesn't seem to be much to

would seem to indicate that the
phase will pass-but it is certainly
serious while it does last. The best

DEAR MISS DIX: am the victim
Of my fathers fanatical views about
the conduct of girls. I am Is and
would give anything to be able to
have the good times that the other
girls around me are enjoying. My
father forbldS me to wear any
makeup, or to go to school dances.
I have never IN my life seen a mo-
ton picture and am not permitted
to look at the advertising pictures IN
front of the theaters. have a shaky
feeling every time one of the girls
treats me to an ice cream soda at
the soda fountain where all the stu
dents go. I would give anything
to have date once in a while and
be allowed to go places with the
nice girls and boys I know. What
shall I do? Shall I defy my father
and his strict ideas? I dread to
think what will happen to me when
I do come in contact with the out
side world. SIXTEEN.
Answer-As long as you are MI
nor and dependent upon your
father, there is nothing that you can
do except to obey him. If you defy
him and try to assert your lnde-
pendence you will only make a bad
matter worse. You will lose the lit
tie liberty you have, for he will
make you virtually a prisoner who
will not be allowed to leave the
house except under guard.
Also, the continual wrangles be-
tween yourself and your father will
ruin the atmosphere of your home
and make your mother very un-
happy. so for her sake, at least, give
in and keep the peace. OF course 1t
is terribly hard for girl OF 16 to be
denied all the innocent pleasures
that belong to her time of life, but
you must not let it make you hard
and bitter, or make you draw into
your shell and get prim and prissy.

Gone are the days when the Eskimos in the Arctic depended on the Northern Lights to see during the winter where they were going. From now on real colored lights will guide them to a very important establishment.
 Received on the Fl Capitan of the Consolidated Olympic Line, was modern, neon sign, enroute to Ferguson Bros. store at Kotzebue, Alaska.
 Electrically lighted by small power unit, the store will in stall the new neon sign, purchas ed through Agent Sam w.
