A Little sympathy

She Is also convinced that the
fathers attitude is partly based on
jealousy. He doesn't like his only
daughter to prefer the society Of
other men. Because OF this uncofa.
Portable blend Of Jealousy and sus-
picion, he often makes things pretty
stormy for his daughter.
Parents who cannot get to sleep
until their children are In the house
should have tact enough to stay In
their rooms. No one likes to steal
silently into the house only to find
q watchful parent on guard. Much
better for the parent to be undiss
covered In his vigil. IS
No one enjoys being policed, even
by'a parent. Fathers who rant ana
rage 1t their young when they come
home late ct night get exactly
.newhere. Much better to sleep on
the matter and take 1t UP when one
u calmer and more rational.
On the other hand. youngsters
who stay out late should have Z
little sympathetic understanding Of
the feelings Of their nerve-wracked
parents. Accidents do happen in
this age Of fast cars and freely
flowing drinks. Those who wait
anxiously for the sound Of the car
coming into the driveway are apt to
be pretty much wrought UP. Use
less to preach against borrowing
trouble or being unduly apprehen.

Eleanor's shameful conduct GER

ton. However, she was not born
with the type of selfishness which
she displayed. Rather, 1t had been
built up gradually by the many
friends Of her parents who repeat
eddy INDUCED her with gifts. There
ought to be . law against the GUS
tom Of always bringing things for
the children. especially where fire.
Quent callers are concerned. Since
there isn't, 1t Is up to the parents
to handle the situation. Friends and
relatives won't take offense If 1t is
tactfully explained that baby is be-
ginning to look for presents from
every one who comes. One could
say. AFTER all, I want baby to be

Of giving the child something to
take home every time he visits.
Here. too. tactful parental inter-
vention Is in order. Otherwise don't
be surprised to have the spoiled
child ask his host or hostess. one of
these days. for something to take
home. Or. worse, you may find,
when you get him home. that he has
slipped something into his pocket.

They are UP In arms whenever

what mean about the casual man
ner of headdreSs where one might
we'll expect Formally and the
flower in-the-hair or formal type
of headdress where one would never
expect to find It. such Is with
Stacks and shorts.
For that matter both Stacks and
shorts, especially Stacks, turn up in
the most surprising places. Imagine.
II you can, Katherine Hepburn
turning out In Stacks and q

miere, and any number Of Who's

and any number Of Broadway first
nighters. Evidently La Hepburn
doesn't care to play Glamour Girl
during off hours. but then its only
the very rich or the very famous
who can get away With wearing old
clothes.
Speaking of Stacks, It's really
funny to see how quickly many
girls have forsaken them for the
dirndl and broomstick' type Of cos
tune. Down southampton, L. l.,
way the young sociAlites, without

an applique bowknot In green at

others, has full length sleeves.
Another fad that dates . dress
Is applique In contrasting color.
a. for instance the dress worn BY
Mrs. Buckley Byers-white shark

At the Southampton Dog Show
held recently many women turned
out In two-piece suits. either linen
Shantung, wool. or gAbardine. Mrs.
Lafayette Burton chose the latter.
The jacket suit has replaced tho
separate jacket and skirt costume.
Just as the broomstick skirt has re-
placed Stacks, although ct les top
draw resorts It's still slacks-two
to one. =:
The pinafore Is another favorite.

When the Greek standard Of

Because Helen Is golden-haired,
with the light brown brows and

she knows that very light hairs
