Make this charming design in taf-
feta, in your best colors, and see If
1t doesn't give you a special, and
very smart, kind of prettiness! OF
course it will be nice in fiat crepe,
thin wool or print-but it's "a nat
ural" for taffeta. Everything about
1t suggests youth, and gay new
ness that looks ahead to spring. Ev-
erything about it is flattering to the
slim-the swing of the skirt, the
shirring that makes the sleeves puff
out, the shirring that fattens the
diaphram, and the doll waist.
The animated silhouette and the
bow trimming are new notes for
spring, in tune with the popularity
of Victorian and very feminine
styles. It's a style you'll love for

meal for Sunday, you will welcome
the suggestion of a change. I can't
stand another "old standby" family
dinner at this point. What can be
done to make that main meal inter-
esting?
Well, how about giving it a party
air by changing the type of food
and the order of service? Instead
of father hard at work carving a
mammoth roast-have a fresh and
unusual meat-and-salad comblna-
tion-and turn the meal into a
buffet affair. just to get away
from the grim cluster of relations
around the groaning board will help
those February doldrums-if all
have to get up and serve them
selves, and sit together in gay little
groups they won't seem quite so
Just folks; in those pithy words
of Ogden Nash, it might make
'our own kin and kith more fun to
be with"
Here's How 1t
Is Done
Set the dining room table with
your prettiest cloth, and gay lit
tie centerpiece of daffodils and
other flowers that seem to breathe
the spirit of spring. Have mat
for the stack of hot plates and
other mats to go under hot serving
dishes Line the forks, knives and
spoons in neat rows on one side of
the table, napkins in snowy piles
here and there. A coffee service
may stand at one end of the table,
and the ice water pitcher on tray
with glasses at the other.
Serve the cocktails in the living
room-by the way, did you know
that you could buy yellow tomato
juice cocktails already prepared
nowadays? Whatever kind you
serve, have them we'll shaken, and
good and cold. The little sand
wioles of Melba toast filled with
cheese, that come packed in boxes
are good with cocktails-heat them
in the oven until the cheese has
melted, and serve them wrapped in
3 napkin.
Start your buffet meal proper
with big steaming bowl of black
bean soup, ladled from the bowl or
tureen into cups or plates in which
thin slices of lemon and hard
cooked egg have been placed. Have
plenty of this soup-every one is
mighty apt to take seconds and
even thirds! There should be a

Suds for Silks

@. What causes gray specks on
freshly washed silks and rayons?
A. Hard water combined with soap
may momentarily form a curd or
scum. The addition of more soap
produces suds which dissolve the
scum. In hard water regions, use
an extra quantity of soap to over
come the hardness and produce
thick, live suds.

OI4 AlOoC. ot1AA SoCO
for smooth dressers A fourth likes
girls who can talk we'll on a variety
of subjects, and his roommate can't
stand those who screech glad tidings
in his ear while dancing with him.
But another boy from the same
school doesn't mind gossip and news
reports on the dance floor, although
he doesn't like to date girls who
feel that they must help out the
orchestra on vocal numbers. Still
another fellow is irked by girls who
use dark red lipstick or fngernail
dope"
However, all of them agreed on
one thing: They like smooth wom-
en-. They like naturalness.
They like you seemingly to let
them do the pursuing. None OF
them had a good word for the girl
who foolishly telephones boys at
the slightest excuse. They don't
want you to admit that you can't
play the feminine game the femi-
nine way. Pick up your pocket
mirror, not the telephone.
The most popular boys will give
you four stars and big cheer if
you lend an interested ear to what
they have to say. Let them talk
about themselves-about their en-
thusiasms, hopes and ambitions.
Listen Wide-eyed to stories of their
athletic exploits and tales of eXcit-
ing adventure. Be properly i'm
pressed by their achievements.
1t Is Important to
Be Good Sport.
Don't languish like a hothouse
flower. The boys are strong for the
girl who is fun to play with, who
won't scream and moan if it begins
to pour while she's playing tennis
or riding in rumble seat. The
good sport is always well liked.
Boys like you to be a regular
fellow during daylight hours, then
they like you to become more femi-
nine for evening dates and occa-
sions. They like the lucky girl who
can combine good sport qualities
with feminine charm.
Play games well, but not too well.
The wise girl doesn't try to outsWim
the boys she likes best. She knows
that they enjoy playing the strong
he-man role. And she likes them
that way!
Be adaptable! Accept situations
as they appear-graciously, nom
chalantly. Be ready for any occa-
sion. A sudden trip to a nearby
city. A game of basketball A
. hamburger with onions at midnight
Like to do things with boys and
other girls-and show that you do.
Be modest! Daring clothes and a
swimming suit which isn't much
larger than a handkerchief may
make you a local sensation, but your
popularity rating won't really 60
up. At least not with the people
who count. The most worthwhile
boys although they may rave about
your figure during a bull session
won't invite you TO the best parties
and dances.
I The young men about town like
smooth dressers-girls with good
taste and a fair for wearing clothes
we'll During the last II months
! they have been quick to enthuse
over the dirndl, the hoop-skirted
formal gown, and demure, little
girl play clothes. Again, they like
you to be feminine!
Also. the girl who has ideas of
her own is always we'll liked. She
doesn't have to depend on her
friends for good-time suggestions
She can have fun on her own-or
she can entertain informally and

KINGS of the Forest

Dear Miss Dix-We have made
many sacrifices to give our daughter,
who has an exceptionally good mind,
a fine education, and our disap-
pointment is not in what she has
done at college, where she has made
fine rating, but in her vacations
when she comes home. It is always
an ordeal because it is wild round
of her rushing from lunch to lunch,
dinner to dinner, party to party,
movie to movie and automobile
rides, etc. She seems to have mad
desire to see all of her old friends
in the few days she is with us, and
when she Is not with them our house
is overflowing with boys and girls.
Nice young people, and we want
her to have good time but we
would like to catch few glimpses
OF her and have a few words with
her, which we never have. She
never has time to sit down and tell
us something of her college ex-
periences that we long to hear.
Aside from a few crumbs of CONVEX
sation between dates. We are no
wiser than we were before she came
home as to what she does. She
doesn't even appear at meals except
occasionally. 1t is go, go, go all
the time. How can we arrange it
so that on her next vacation We
may see something of her?
THE PARENTS.
Answer:
You can't. Is is an utter impos-
sibility. Human ingenuity balks be-
fore the helpless task of trying to
calm down the eXuberant spirits of
young girl just having her first
fling and making her want to sit
down and have a nice, long, cozy
chat with mama and papa instead
of going out on some gay party.
I don't want to be discouraging
but the first coherent, intelligent
conversation you will have with
your daughter will be after she is
married, has had a baby and has
settled down to the real business of
living. Until then you will never
see her except when she is fitting
from place to place. The principal
communication you will have to-
gether will be "gimme-gimme" on
her part and "don't-don't" on yours.

LIFTERS AND LOAFERS

The population Of the country IS
no longer divided between Demo-
Gratis and Republicans, the rich and
the poor or the good and bad.
From the smallest county seat to
the great metropolis the nation IS
now divided between filters and
loafers, laborers and leaners, doors
and deadbeats.
There was time when only the
lame, the halt and the blind ex-
pected charity and most of them,
too proud to beg, earned their keep.
We didn't put the professional
buns on relief then-We charged
them with vagrancy and put them
to work on the streets. The worse
thing about relief is the premium
it has put on Incidence.
