MEN EXPECT 1T
In other words, the movies, maya
Zines, and closer personal contact
with women who put accent on
FEMININITY has taught Negro
men to expect and demand it.
Of course, your height and stature
govern the extent to which you may
advantageously indulge your fem
ininity' in the selection of clothes; ;
but your manner, coiffure, mani
cure, carriage, ETC., as we'll as the
use Of feminine" colorS, all help to
create the optical illusion.
The SenSory illusion is effected by
a soft, well modulated CInaffected)

Perfume brings to mind the story
OF a none e-tOO-attractive old maid
who was in love with a handsome
young man. After resorting to Voo-
400 practitioners to "fix" him into
loving her, to no avail, the frustrat-
ed old timer bought some charm"
perfume with which to capture him.
And IL worked! She got her man
PERFUME DID TRICK
Here's the catch: The young man
had previously been in love with a
girl who used the same kind of per-
fume, and the association of ideas

Moral: Perfume DOES create
personality, individuality. Some
times it leaves more vivid SENSE

would-be siren to discover the per-
fume that best expresses her per-
sonality, and stick to it. (By the
way, popular varieties sold in drug
and department stores have just as
much, if not more, charm" quail

A word to the wise: Don't let
your head rule your heart too much.
No matter if the man Of your choice
is a mental giant or stunted oaf,
his primary interest in you is the
fact that you are a woman-soft,
sweet and Sincere-not hail-fel-

men want women to be as differ

At sweet sixteen. you should not
be off the deep end about sny
fe low and if he is your age, he is
acting it. You should hot be so
very interested in him that you
cannot take the fact that he does
like another girl. Don't get set
tied minded. you have too many
years in front of you. If you are
permitted to receive company, have
more than one friend, so that you
will net care if the boys visit 9TH

if you are a nice little girl but
he likes other nice little girls,
too.
Thanks TO Miss Lawson for her

Harvard Shells Much The Best In Rowing Meet

Cambridge, Mass, April 29.-(UP) A husky and potent Harvard eight settled down today to abbriviated preparations for Saturdays Compton cup regatta after preserving its un- beaten record in Rowe cup coripeti- ton.
 For the fifth straight year, the Crimson Varsity, with only three veterans in its s1encer shell, powered to victory in the postponed Rowe cup event staged last night on the Charles River. The Harvard junior varsity and 150-pound crews also won to complete the five-year sweep.
 A treacherous wind made the re- gatta a test of oarsmanship rather than speed as the Crimson varsity covered the Henley distance of l 5-l6 miles in 6 minutes, 56.2 seconds for a two-length victory over an experi.. enced Massachusetts institute of technology boat that ruled co-favor- ite. Third in the triangular battle was Boston University, four lengths behind the leader. :.
 The MT. 150-pound crew led half way through the race, but a gust of wind blew the Bowman's oar aside, and Harvard came on to score a narrow win. Harvardb Jayven's finished two length ahead of Tech. Point totals were Harvarr A, MT. 15, and B.U. 6.
 In the added freshman race, MT. gained its first triumph over Harvard in 28 years by 2 l-2 length margin. B. U. was @ poor third.
