The gap that existed between
the older and younger generation
is gradually being bridged. Moth.
ers and daughters go skipping to
gether to the beauty shop to ge
grand hairdos and new designs in
makeup. They wear each others
clothes. when necessity arrives.
Hats don't care whether they ar
worn by a girl of sixteen or a lady
of sixty Amt it fun?
NO SHELVING TIME
One reason for this is that
there's no shelving time for WON
en-, as happened when feminine
activities were limited to looking
after the home, few professions
end trades. No Geraldine, as long
as a woman can chug along under
her own steam, as long as her legs
are strong and steady enough to
carry her, she will step right alone
in the modern parade. The old
chair by the fire place is not for
her.
No home is a happy one where
in resides an age, idle grumbler
Or a weary old lady who whines'
forever about the past, how much
better it was than the present.
But if there is present grand cid
girl who plays with the dog and
the kids, who is ever willing to-
lend a helping hand, whose kindly
gay presence dispels the clouds Of
disappointments and family troub
les, then the home has a balance
wheel. She has lived long enough
to realize chat little fun and
laughter inspire the children to
stick around with the family in
stead of always beating it on in
pursuit of their own affairs.
Since grandmother'S young days
styles in mothers have changed.
The old timer was often so saint
like that she was terrible bore.
She lived for her children" gave

Ha, ate the neck herself Which, Of
course, caused Pa to rule the

MODERN MAMA WISER
She was good woman. If
she had not been SO good she
would have been better. Often she
disapproved of dancing Or card
playing, which meant that the
children had to seek amusemenFs
elsewhere Over the household
hung a fog of gloom.
Wiser is the modern mama. She
pretties herself to the limit so
Daddy and the children will be
proud of her. She is interested in
her children'S school work and
their projects.
Look at the young mamas trund-
ling baby carriages! They look like
high school girls. It's grand.

MIGHTY ATTRACTIVE

We first wore slacks for casual
occasions, and gradually donned
them for morning wear. even on
the streets, and all Of us admit
there is something mighty attrac-
tive about a young woman swing
ing along in neatly fitting slacka
SOmehCv' she seems to SymbOliZe
the freedom and independently OF
modern women!
Dress her in a well-stvled after
noon gown or informal dress and
she gains in attractiveness. how-
ever. She is more feminine d.
more as we expect her to be.
But she gains her full beauty and
her most attractive appearance III
an evening gown. All women do.
Especially if she has exercised
good taste in her selection of ma
terials and styling. All of us-o2r
nenfolk included-feel that she
thsn is as near perfection in ap-
rearance as she can be.
RECALL OTHER MOMENTS
Anv of us can close our eyes and
recall p1easllralble visions of the
gaietv and splendor of crowded
ballroom where beautiful women
appear more beautiful still in lovely
evening dress and gowns, highly
varied in ColorS and stvlings.

ever. to imagine much actual beau

in picturing similar scene-wlth
the women in evening shorts rather
than gowns! I know their variance
would be unusual. I realize their

And our menfolk would joke us
about them and appear to be
pleased WITH them Those who
told us their honest opinions, how
ever. would tell us that they did
not like them. Neither do I and
I feel that most women will agree
with me in that decision.

You seem to be hunting
trouble with your young man
and you are the one who keeps
him away. A fellow does not
like to be nagged after he is
married much less beforehand.
If you care for him, ask him
to come to see you and forget
about the other girl as long as
he treats you nice. You, per-
haps, quarrel with him for the
want of something to say,
nothing more serious, but he
does not know that. So, if you
like him, and want to keep him,
talk about things i'm which he
is interested and as long as he
says you are the light of his
life, believe him and forget
about all others.

much. Now, l am writing you for
advice.
1 am a girl twenty-five years Of
age, have never had date with a
boy but there is boy in my home
town whom I love. He and I were
friends at one time but there was
another girl and we would quarrel
all of the time about her. He told
me that he did not care anything
about her but I would not believe
him. Now when he sees me out and
says something to me, he seems to
care for me but he does not seem
to know how to express it.
