Prospect Of Much Aurg Than Realization
Subject of
Engraved
Cards
Form Miss Brown
Unsuitable Until
Late Thirties
BY EMILY POST.

To mother who has six daughters
and whose Oldest girl wants to know
whether she may have her visiting
cards engraved simply Miss Brown"
l must answer that, while it would
be correct in indicating her status
as the eldest spinster in the family.
according to preSent-day point OF
view it would be very unsuitable
unless her age is in the upper
thlrtieS. If young girls card were
engraved Miss Brown it would GER
tainly give other young people, who
might not know her well, the i'm
preston she was very "priSsy."
Dear Mrs. Post: Due to cir
cumstanceS beyond my control, and
known only TO myself, did not
send a wedding present to the
daughter of an acquaintance at the
time she was married. I had wanted
to send something, and still want
| to, very much, but am at a loss to
explain its lateneSs. Shall l send
a note explaining in part why the
gift is being sent so late, or shall
I buy belated wedding gift card,
which l have seen at the stationers,
or shall l simply send it and explain
nothing?
AnSwer-If I were you I would
write on note paper. With belated
but very best wishes for your happi-
ness" To some one you know very
well, you might explain more fully:
Il wanted so much to send this in
time for the wedding, but it was
impossible. 1t goes to you now with
my love and all best wishes for
| your happiness"
Dear Mrs. Post: I can't buy
| all my table silver at one time; in
fact, I'm going to begin buying very
modestly. In my position, would
you advise the supper size knife and
fork to begin with or the large din
ner size?
AnsWer-The smaller size knife
and fork is much more useful than
the dinner size because it can be
used for every meal and every course,
whereas the dinner size is correct
(and comfortable to use) only for
the meat course at dinner.
Dear Mrs. Post: What should
a guest do when he finds a fly in
his wineglass?
Answer-In a hotel he would
simply tell the waiter But in a
private house, l think the best thing
to do would be to let it alone and
hope that the person waiting on
table will see it and take the glass
away and bring fresh one.

point of correct table setting,

Beauty Hints
For Skiing
Jaunts
Special Protection
Needed for Hair,
Skin and Eyes
By PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Ski novices are always amazed to
find that they have sunburned badly
during their first experience OF
skimming over the snow. Unless
they have been warned by veteran
enthusiasts they do not know that
the reflection of the sun on the
snow can burn as badly as the re-
f1ection of the sun on water. Ones
skin should be adequately lubri-
Gated with sun or snow cream be-
fore exposing it on skiing jaunt.
The cream you used for sun
bathing during the summer is per-
fectly all right to use for snow
play, but there are a couple of
special preparations on your cos
metic counter which were mixed
especially to protect skins from
snowburn. These come in tubes
and are easily packed.
1t is best not to put any water
on your face after you come in
from skiing or from playing in the
snow for any length of time. Use
cleansing cream to freshen your
face and at night, before you go to
bed, apply lubricant to your skin.
Refrain also from using any astrin-
gent skin tonic, for they are usu-
ally very drying If your skin is
even a slight bit burned.
Most girls like to ski with their
hair uncovered. This is not a good
idea, but if vanity makes you
want to do so. all right. However,
take the precaution of protecting
your hair from the sun by anoint-
ing your scalp with bit OF oil
half and half olive and castor oil
perfumed is good-or brush your
hair with a bit of a special hair

Maybe 1t is a man who, after the
honeymoon has settled down into
the routine of going to work in the
morning and coming home at night,
day after day, decides that marriage
isn't worth what it costs. His wife
in a bungalow apron dosen't look
as pretty as she used to in pink
chiffon when he was courting her
1t grouches him to see all the
money he earns going for household
bills instead of for his own pleas
ures. He chafes at the restrictions
of domesticity and yearns for his
bachelor freedom, and to him a
divorce decree looks like a ticket
to paradise.
Or, perhaps it is a woman who
looks at her stodgy husband, who is
getting fat and bald and who spends
his evening doing over his pipe
and paper and only grunts when he
Is spoken to, and wonders why on
earth she ever married anything
like that.
She is tired of cooking dinners
and darning socks and washing lit
tie faces and listening to the chill
dren quarrel and the baby cry, and
she thinks that the way Of happi-
ness for her is to be rid of her dull
husband and be free to live her
own life and, perhaps, to meet
some Prince Charming who will
be handsome and romantic and
bear her of to her castle of dreams.
Or, perhaps, it is husband and
wife who have got on each others
nerves so that neither can see any
thing but the others faults, and
each magnihes the others short
comings until they blot out all their
virtues. Or one or the other gets
Jealous. Or they are just plain
bored. And they think the remedy
for what ails their marriage is di-
vorce.
But when they get their DEGREES
they find out that it is not the pam

form of lubricating lotion to keep
the surface soft and plant looking.
One of the best we know is liquid
which is soothing not only to your
| face and hands, but which is equally
good when applied to upper arms,
elbows. knees and legs after bathing.
| In addition, when you come in from
the cold, it's smart idea to apply
this helpful lotion-just as a mat
ter of precaution.
It's equally interesting to find that
the lotion we have in mind serves as
very efficient powder base or
! foundation for your out-of-doors ex-
cursions. What's more, the mascu-
line members of the household find
it a soothing, helpful product, and
the kiddies' compilations will be
much better if it is used as pre-
snowball-fght application. There's
no end to its possibilities!
This difficult weather also leads
to excessively chapped hands with
an almost Cracked appearance
a condition which is neither COM
Portable nor attractive. Housewives,
especially, find that hands con-
stantly immersed in hot water, sub
jected to the super-heated atmos-
phere of houses and then abruptly
plunged into frigid outdoor weather
have a tendency to look really hor-
rible All these reasons are sufficient
cause to tell you about a new hand
cream which really heals chapped
hands and does it quickly. The
cream is light teXtured and velvety
and disappears Immediately after
application.
The important point, however, Is
that this new product contains a
special healing ingredient known as
"carbamide," which goes to work on
small cuts. which are often RESPONSE
BILE for unsightly redness. Helpful,
too, is the fact that you can use
this cream Immediately before dom
ming gloves, handling hose or writ
ing an important letter for the boss
1t won't leave any greasy film to tell
the tale.
To get away from this prospect of
a cold, dreary world filled with red
noses and sniff1es, we'd like you to
know about a new shade of lipstick
that should be the answer to the
Southern-vacationer's prayer. The
makers describe it as a bright,
sunny, primitive red"-which is good
enough for us. All we can add is
that it is really vivid and intense
enough for all Southern clothes in
bright shades for day or evening,
and it will blend beautifully with ev-
erything from bright red and Or
ange to warm Indian earth shades.
Should be very dramatic for South

safely against the Washington

quite satisfied until he passes
the all-time major league mark
of A straight games set by Viii

over yet.

Grams may not be as fast or as
durable as they once were, but
Manager Gerald Lowe will have
on hand more than enough re-
placements to keep fast team
on the field at all times. Many
of the veterans have been sharp
ening up their batting eyes and
from all indications they can hit
that old pill just as far as ever.
They will admit that they might
not last full game but they are
anxious to go and can last two
or three innings each and they
expect to go at top speed when
they are in there.
Aside from the interest in see
ing the oldtimers in harness again
the fans will see a good game.
AS stated above the old boys will
be out in force and Manager
Lowe will have q fast club on
the field at all times.
As for pitchers, Lowe has more

will show the Army men some
