Sometimes one wonders why peo-
pie ever try to put cushions on their
outdoor chairs. Perhaps it makes
the chair look more inviting. But
too many times for comfort, the pill
low Is deceiving. It beckons, you
sit, and then you rise with groan of
anguish. The pillow was soaking
wet. And all you had to do to
transfer most of that dampness to
your own person was to sit just
long enough to be able to rise again.
And I wish you'd show me the pill
low that has been out overnight
that isn't wet. Perhaps there are
some climates but not the ones
in which people insist on leaving
pillows in outdoor chairs overnight
Personally I'm for forgetting pill
lows altogether. If I need a pillow,
I'll 60 back into the house and get
one. But if you are a fanatic on
the subject of having your garden
chairs comfortable, then you simply
must take on the responsibility of
carrying in the pillows with the cat
at night. JEAN.

Dear Miss Caldwell and Mr..
Harrison:
IT like to go out with boys-what
girl doesn't? But I don't like to
have lot of money spent on me.
1t embarrasses me. Movies are fun,
and going down to the local soup
joint afterward is swell, but don't
expect to be taken there all the
time. I realize a fellow has only
so much money, and he certainly
doesn't want to spend all of it on
entertaining a girl.
II enjoy having the gang at my
house. My mother always likes
them to raid the icebox, even if they
don't leave anything.
Another thing! I don't expect a
corsage for every little school dance.
I think boy does enough in buying
the ticket. Of course, think a girl
should receive corsage for the big
dances. She kinda feels forgotten
if the other girls are sporting them.
Just one little thing have to say
to the boys. Please don't be too
early. You don't know how awful it
is trying to get dressed for date
and knowing all the time that he's
watching the clock downstairs.
Thanks for this chance to get
load of my mind. SHIRLEY R."

Enjoy Leisurely Bath

A quick soap and water bath or
shower is ideal in the morning, but
the leisurely soaking and scrubbing
thst makes for cleanliness and so
much more, is often best reserved
for the bedtime hour.
When time is no consideration, lie
back for while and bask in a tuhful
of lukeWarm water. Shut out
worries and dream pleasant dreams.
Several moments of concentrated
scrubbing with soap should be SUI
ficient. After you have scrubbed
yourself pink all over, soap the wash
cloth and go after the spaces be-
tween the toes, the backs Of the ears.
And now for the final rundown.
The sedative warm water, the re-
moval of soil, body secretions, and
skin cells, the friction of drying with
fresh bath towels, and the touch Of
crisp clean lingerie or night clothes
leaves you feeling magnificently
fresh and at peace with the world.

couldn't have irritated his skin dur
ing the bath; she'd used the mildest
type. But he continued to scratch in
the light of day. SO she took him
upstairs, put some warm water in
the tub and rinsed him thoroughly.
Then she dried him off and there
she had it. For some reason or
other she'd forgotten to rinse the
pup in clear water after his bath.
AS a result, he had bare spots on
his coat where nature and the
Scottie standard said he should be
covered.
She had circles under her eyes.
Soap as a permanent addition does

Sound Advice
To the Girl
Graduate
Quit Dreaming
And Get Down to
Fundamentals
BY DOROTHY DIX.

These are the days when my desk
Is flooded with letters from young
girls who have Just finished high
school and who are now confronted
with the problem of supporting
themselves. They have been gradu-
ated In all the ologies and isrnx, but
they have been taught nothing about
how to make living, and they are
as ignorant Of the business world
into which they are about to plunge
as they are Of the heart Of darkest
Africa. They have no conception Of
their own talents, nor aptitudes, nor
strength, nor staying powers. Like
the hero of the old song, they are
on their way. but they don't know
where they are going nor even where
they want to 60. And they ask pa
thetically for some hand to guide
them, some word of counsel by
which to steer their course. To
these bewildered youngsters I would
say: First, get down to bedrock with
yourself. Kiss the beautiful dreams
with which every girl beguiles her
self during adolescence a long and
lingering, but final, good-by.
Put out of your mind the belief
that having to earn your own living
will be a brief episode that will
cover the space between your grad
uation day and your wedding day.
Perhaps you will marry. Perhaps
you won't. Perhaps if you do marry
you will have to keep on with your
Job and help support the family. No
girl in these days Is certain of get
ting husband who can take care
Of her.
And don't be sorry for yourself.
Don't pity yourself because you are
a working girl instead of a society
girl. Be proud of yourself because
you have the intelligence and the
grit to earn your own bread and
butter. Rejoice in your independ-
ence.
Realize that constructive work Is
10 times as thrilling and exciting as
killing time. And gloat little over
the fact that you have far better
chance to make good marriage
than the rich girl has whose papa
supports her at home, because you
are down where the men are.
So, then, having got yourself into
a sane mental condition, take stock
Of yourself and try to see what line
of work you are best adapted to
