Dorothy Dix Says go
Child Should Assist Parents, but
Not Sacrifice His Entire Life

school of thought that assumes a
father has q right to direct his
children's lives. That he lacks the
wisdom to do this is shown by the
fact that he is preventing your ls-
year-old brother from going into
the Navy, which is exactly what he
should do under the circumstances.
1t would give your brother the
education and training and disci-
pline that he needs, and it would
make a man of him instead Of the
loafer he will become if he hangs
around with nothing to do until
he loses all sense of responsibility,
all ambition and all shame in being
a parasite on others.
see no reason why you and your
girl shouldn't marry, provided out
of your joint earnings you make
enough to give your father and
mother a monthly allowance that,
with your fathers salary, will keep
the family going.
II your brother goes in the Navy
he can also contribute his share
and the other boys and girls can
help. 1t isn't fair that one child
should be made the family goat
and have to work to support sis
ters and brothers who are just as
able to work as he or she is, yet
that often happens.

Clothes Showngs Indicate Strong East Indian Influence
FROM THE MEMO PAD:

FROM THE MEMO PAD:
Soap made of a pure grade of
olive oil is one of the finest ever
produced for shampoos and infants
baths. With it you also can make
a perfect liquid soap by thinly shaw
ing one-third of a cake and add
ing this to one quart of hot water,
stirring occasionally until dissolved.
The same company has another
soap on the market that Is firm,
thoroughly milled and extremely low
in moisture content It contains i'm
ported oil of English lavender which
imparts a fragrance that is very
delightful.
Small glass marble-like balls that
come in various sizes add delight
full decorative touch TO a bowl of
flowers. They also serve the utili-
tartan purpose Of hiding any un-
attractive holder that may be
used.
For finding telephone numbers
quickly there is an automatic in
dex. On the top of the case are
letters and all one has to do is
simply move the pointer to the de-
sired initial. press the button and
the top flies open, revealing the
number you want. -.
Be smart and have personal
lied napkins" They come in white
with colored borders, or solid blue,
yellow, green or orange and are
printed in harmonizing colors with
either three initials or two
COlOrful waste baskets suitable for
the living room and boudoir are
heavily constructed and stand Is
inches high. They are well lined
and the large, attractive printed
designs include a great variety Of
subjects. E.
Card table covers made Of quilted
rayon faille taffeta are full-size,
well made, and come in lovely colors
such as wine, green, royal blue, and
dusty rose. -.
A practical article to have on those
cold wintry days is portable cleo
trio heater. Almost every household
needs one of these to use early in
the morning before the furnace is
fired. 1t is made of black metal, has
solid copper chromium plated re-
fector and a carbon and silica heat
ing rod. II gives of very red glow
and has holes in both the top and
bottom to allow the heat to circu-
late. -.
Combination corkscrew and bottle
openers appear in the form of a
man leaning against a lamp-post
and would be an ornamental gift
for friends bar. The figure is
made Of carved wood, the detach-
able head used as a handle for the
opener and the body as the con-
tainer. e.
Give as your next shower present
a set of three boxes for handker-
chiefs, gloves and stockings. They
are brightly covered with printed
fabric and any women would find
them useful -.
Another lovely shower gift is
chromium sandwich tray with
wooden handles that could also be
used as fruit container 1t makes
a nice showing and is quite mex
pensive. ...
New on the market are bowls,
vases, trays and plant containers
made of Chinese antique copper.
These are extremely odd looking and
very attractive. -.
Pictures that are hand carved in
wood and beautifully framed would
be lovely hung in either the den or
the "rumpus room" There are two
scenes, one duck blind, the other
fox hunt. Both are gaily COL
ored. :.

To Determine
Excessively
Oily Scalp
Various Indications,
Among Which Are
Brittle Ends
nOW taUOrS.
By PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Scalp conditions are frequently
deceiving. You might think you
have very dry scalp when actually
you have an oily condition. For
unless the entire length of the hair
becomes oily the day after a sham
poo one is inclined to think that
ones scalp is too dry if the hair
is being unmanageable and lacks
a healthy luster. But, according to
leading scalp specialist, the ends
of the hair can be brittle and dry
and the scalp itself too oily-so
this Is how to judge.
If your hair becomes oily near
the scalp three days to a week
after a shampoo, it is excessively
oily. Other indications are dry
brittle ends, dandruff, temple hair
becoming sparse, and the color of
hair fading. Very, very oily scalps
make the entire length of hair
greasy looking a day or two after a
shampoo.
This specialist warns that the
oily scalp should not be sham
pooed but once in several
weeks for weekly shampooing only
aggravates the condition as 1t
causes the tiny oil glands to be-
come relaxed and spill over on the
surface of the hair instead of
normally flowing into the hair shaft.
1t is suggested that the scalp
be kept clean by special prepara-
ton for oily scalp which is astrin-
gent and tends to keep the too
relaxed oil glands closed. This Is
done by parting the hair and rub
bing the scalp with bit OF abb
sorbent cotton wrung out of the
special preparation. Thus your
head is kept clean between the soap
and water shampoos.
Every single day the hair should
be brushed - even though that
sounds contrary to reason. But
the brushing actually does help
normalize the condition and it is
a mistake to feel that oily hair will
be made more oily by brushing.
When the hair is washed one
should use another special cleanser
which clears the scalp of loosened
cuticle before the liquid shampoo
is applied.
If your scalp is excessively oily
you might try this routine. Every
three weeks, or once a month. sham
poo your hair. Between shampoos
keep your head clean as suggested
and your hair well brushed. In
two months time the condition
should be greatly improved.
During those two months you
should also refrain from eating
fried foods, rich pastries or other
sweets, and fatty foods. Drink
plenty of fresh water each day, ex-
ercise in the open air if possible
(otherwise indoors) and get plenty
of sleep. Try to dry your hair in
the sunshine while you are treat
ing it. Get plenty of sleep and avoid
worry or nervous strain as you
would the plague! For overstimu-
lation of the nervous system is one
of the known causes for this un-
fortunate scalp condition which
robs any head of its rightful beauty!

evening gown, or thereu be a
street model with cOlOrful fishes
swimming merrily around the hem.
She favors the bare midriff-which
may help TO put it across this sea-
son-and goes in for severely simple
gowns which depend solely upon
lines and these beautiful hand
painted decorations for effective
ness You might keep an eye
on this girl-every one thinks she's
very important.
Another designer who's doing a
terrific job is Renee Montague. :. q.
AT her press showing the other day
she showed Southern clothes that
had even the fashion-weary editors
muttering such original praise as
"enchanting-divine." Renee
Montague, like most of the others,
does a great deal with the covered
up look for evening-and it appears
to be definitely the most important
trend from mere on in. :. Also, she
offers such faVorltes as peplumS,
which she does frequently and well
on her long-WaiSted silhouette. Par
ticularly useful for Wind-blown
decks OF cruise ships are the match
ing scarfs which she uses with many
OF her Southern evening clothes. :. =.
These can be worn over The shoulders
or tied about the head and Will
probably fortell a trend to match
ing Scarfs that will be big this sea-
son. -. There IS quite a Tot OF the
East Indian influence in these
clothes and in many others-one
print with this feeling has sequins
applied on the front Of the bodice
so that they merely suggest glitter
instead of being obvious trimming.
Montague uses color called Bur
mese gold in some costumes in
spired by the East Indian exhibit
at the Museum Of Costume Art
and I think this will be a color to
watch. .. It's rich, very flattering
and extremely adaptable to this type
Of silhouette.
This same feeling for the ''primi-
tive" is apparent in hats for resort
wear, too. AT Jay-Thorpes they
have eight new colors called Burma
red, Hawaiian green, Indo-China
orange. Tahitian yellow, Nassau
blue, Jamaica green, Java purple
and Cuba gold-which should give
you the idea. incidentally, the hats
shown there were either tiny doll
like things or enormous beach-type
models. No compromise. Turbans
are very important and many OF
them have a squared look which is
adapted from a Javanese boys head
dress, I am told. There's also a
feeling for conyertibility in brimmed

Dear Miss DIX am very much
In love with a splendid girl, as she
is with me, and we plan to marry.
But my parents forbid it. They
say that they worked and slaved
for me while I was small, and,
now that am able to help them,
I must give them at least five years
of my service, and that it is rank
ingratitude for me to think of such
a thing as marrying.
My father says that if I marry
he will never have anything to do
with me, and because of his stub
born nature, I believe it. I don't
want to seem ungrateful to them,
for God only knows how I appre-
ciate all they have done for me,
but what of the girl? 1t isn't fair
TO ask her to wait that long when
I know that at the end of five years
conditions will be precisely what
they are now.
My brother of 10 is unemployed
and almost enjoys it. He wants
to join the Navy, but again parental
stop him. What shall
I do? Marry and take chance or
let the girl 60 and know that I
have lost the one woman in the
world for me? A. B. c.
Answer-If your parents need
your help, it is certainly your duty
to give them assistance, but you are
under no obligations to sacrifice
your entire life to them.
A mans children are not his chat
tells. They are individual human
beings, with q right to their own
lives, and your fathers contention
that you must give him five years
of your life has in 1t neither justice
nor affection. 1t is nothing but
greed.
