Take Teachers Advice
Parents Must Regard Them as

Better not says the teacher.
Better enrich his daily work and
let him take his full time in classes
Does the family agree cheerfully?
They emphatically do not: and what
they say and what they do in their
disagreement Is amazing And ex-
tremely discouraging to the trained
and devoted teacher.
Backward children need less
work, and more pointed lessons,
shorter hours, than the quick learn
ers require. Nerve-Strained adol-
escents need adjusted programs that
ease their loads. Tired children
need more free time and fewer
school hours, a lighter course of
study. or complete vacation from
school. Sick children need special
care. perhaps special classes, GER
tainly medical supervision.
Some children need two terms
work in the same grade. All chill
dren need rs much in school as
their tastes, abilities and their
health demand. be that more or less
than the usual routine allowance.
Rarely does the trained and exper-
fenced teacher who advises any
such procedure meet with willing
cooperation from the family and
parents concerned.
Parents would help their children
more than they know If they had
more confidence In the school, more
faith in the teacher than they or
dinarily show II instead of flying
into q rage and denouncing the
teacher as ignorant, selfish, partial,
partisan and whatnot, the dis
tressed parents could bring them
selves to feel that the teacher is as
important, and trustworthy and ef-
ficient as the doctor, the dentist
and the lawyer upon whom they
confidently depend, the children
would arrive at their goal sooner
and in better heart.

Acquire More
Charm This
Season
Be Well GroOned
And Speak With
A Soft Voice
By Patricia Lindsay

Too many women are afraid TO
be charming. They wrongfully think
of charm" as affectation. Instead
of saying the gracious thing they
act either shy or Indifferent. In
fact, too many women are timid OF
charm!
1 actually heard one sullen woman
say of a most gracious lady, II don't
like her, she puts on airsl" Well,
the gracious lady did not need the
affection of the sullan lady, for she
was most popular and very well
liked! The sullen lady is still sullen
and not liked!
I personally believe that American
women should strive to be more
charming. A CHEEKY word, friendly
smile, a grateful thank-you, a beg
ging to pardon lapse in good man
ners, a thoughtful deed-they all
make for better world. And the
woman who practices those little
niceties is not putting on airs.
A part of charm, too, is knowing
how to accept praise graciously.
Many women can praise in lovely
manner, but they blush and stam-
mer when praise is spoken of them,
embarrassing persons who only in
tended to please. If one pays you
a pretty compliment acknowledge
it by frankly admitting, why, that
pleases me greatly" or by simply
saying, How nice of you to say
thatl" Don't cause embarrassment
by saying, You old fiatterer, of
course you don't mean that" or
something equally ridiculous.
Having studied many, many
women, to see what makes them
tick, have come to the conclusion
that it is difficult for the harassed
or worried woman to be charming.
A woman should strive to keep re-
laxed, unf1uttered and in full self
control. She may be busy as bee,
but she should be systematic about
her tasks so that at no time will
she be caught unawares. A harsh
word spoken cannot be retracted
and there are no amends for hasty
deed which causes ill-feeling.
1t is hard to say to you-this and
this and this constitute charm. For
charm is not def1nable. I can say,
however, that having a pleasing,
wel-groomed appearance is an ele-
ment of charm. Having gracious
manners is an essential of charm.
Doing things in the prettiest, most
attractive manner is being charm
ing. And being understanding,
thoughtful, sympathetic and as
helpful as possible under all cir
cumstances' is a sure sign that you
have a charming mindl
Let's work for more charm this
year. The heavens know the world
IS in need of more charm and less
grimness. Let's each play the part
of being the lady beautiful and
bountiful within our immediate
spheres. Let's keep as lovely looking
as possible, speak with the sweetest
of voices, walk with the maximum
OF grace and think with all the
ease and sane perspective that we
can master. Let's not worry that
others might think we are putting
on airs"-for we will know that, as
women, we are living up to our
rightful heritage-that of bringing
more beauty to the world!

butterflies, or black dinner model
with detachable boa of red ostrich,
worn with long red gloves. Maybe
you'd have liked the bright Innings
in fur coats and that brilliant red
jersey afternoon dress with plastic
scanning. You might even settle
for the black gown with the short
pink wool cape edged in black fox,
or choose between all-over beaded
dresses of white or navy, worn with
plstina jackets. Oh, well. D..
The collection at Henri Bendel
which was viewed the morning of
that same maddening day intro
duced a new daytime silhouette with
padded, rounded shoulders and
back fulhess concentrated into q
modified hustle. Sometimes this
back fullneSs-which Is not, incl
dentally, the honest-to-gosh hustle
again-is placed low and often to
the side. Vivid tones, such as bril-
liant greens, appeared for daytime,
along with wonderful reds, but the
emphasis is still on black, particu-
larly as background for jewels.
Bendel likes the jacket with shorter,
easy to wear length and a slightly
nipped in waistline look. They also
feature short fur coats and do in
teresting things with sleeves. For
example, many are straight and
loose, with some widening at the
wrist. others TERED, or full and
above the elbow
For evening, there's the tendency
to bare the shoulder and cover the
arm-a tendency which leads to
dropped shoulder dresses with lit
tie sleeves. They do this particu-
larly well in black velvet. Also wor-
thy of attention are their simple
dresses with v necklines slashed al
most to the waiSt-a trend which
has appeared again and again and
which seems to insure the return OF
the ''plunging neckline" this year.
At this same showing was pre-
sented q collection Of clothes by
Molyneux, with the wonderful
tweeds. the straight, very English
type coats emphasized by front pam
el and cuffs of fur. Some OF the
coats hang loose from very mar
row shoulders. Accordion pleated
gowns, one in deep purple in four
tiers, were featured, carrying out
the trend which has been obvious
elsewhere.

This practical pattern gives you
this years most inseparable OF sep
srate fashions - the low neckline
shirt and the dirndl skirt. 1t is
smart now to make the shirt in
soft wool f1annel-white or neutral
gray or beige-and the skirt in
soft woolen, too, in any rich color
you like! 1t can be rust, forest
green, blue, brown, cinnamon, rosy
red or purple to blend with your
tweed or fur coat. The yoke-shoul-
Ger shirt, with its easy, soft fullneSs
in front, takes just two buttons for
closing and can have short or long
cuffed sleeves. The skirt which
completes Pattern No. 14l7-B is the
increasingly important type for all
figures this season-gathered all
around on O medium waistband
which Is to be worn very tight at
the natural waistline.

her luxurious evening modes, more
than one of them appliqued with
sequins, rhineStoneS or lace, and her
delightfully."- simple dinner suits In
the usual manner of perfection.
AS for a general silhouette-and
that is more important than any
specific reference, Sophie keeps
shoulders wide, but with a new look
of being wide beneath the dress,
thanks to the use OF shoulder cups
which give width without square,
ness. Something very new is her
plastic scanning" which is really
a clever working of dress seams to
give a nodded look almost equalling
foundation garment. Short curved
or angular seams follow the line OF
the body to give a soft poured on"
look, and when the stores state
ment calls it sculpture with scis-
sors an American step beyond
Alix and Vionnet" We think they
may have something there. Sophie
remains firm about skirts and skirt
length. They're slim and short
for daytime (about IT inches) and
either very Slinky in the dinner suit
type of thing or very bouffant for
evening. Among the romantic gowns
of the latter group is the trend
setting dinner dress of blue and
black striped broeatelle, with full
puffed sleeves, high waistline and
square decolletage-a1l in the re-
gency manner. Likely to be impor-
tant, too, is her suit of soft black
wool with hip-length jacket fitted
and edged around with silver fox.
Some under -the-chin detailing is
found on blouses and daytime frocks
and, gayest of all, there is some
specially designed accessory with
every costlme-be 1t muff, gloves,
unusual jewelry or perhaps hat
made Of suit and blouse fabric
twisted together into an enticing
turban.
Out of the hundred or more cos
TUNES shown to the press, 1t seems
virtually impossible to pick out only
few, but If you would have an
idea Of the road to the poorhouse,
you should have seen a golden beige
dinner gown with round feather

stairs to sharpen a pencil or look
for the dictionary. Before you start,
plan your evenings work and decide
which assignment you're going to
tackle first.
As far as the order of your study
ing is concerned, We don't think you
should be slave to routine. often
you'll do the easiest or most pleasant
job first, but don't let this become a
habit. If you do, you'll find yourself
always tackling your toughest sub
ject when you're in the poorest shape
to handle it. Vary your procedure
from night to night.
once you've started to study, do
your utmost to concentrate ON it.
Day dreaming is the students num-
ber one time -waster. If you simply
must think about that tall seniors

prospects, stop studying entirely and
think good and hard about the
delightful diversion for five min
utes. Then forget it completely and
dig into your chemistry!
It's a good idea to look up from
your book every few minutes to rest
your eyes. Two or three times an
hour-perhaps when you shift from
one subject to another-get up and
stretch your muscles Go to the
window and gulp little fresh air.
or practice bit of rug-cutting for
a minute or two.
Incidentally, the room in which
you study should be well ventilated
and not too warm. The experts say
So degrees is right, but we're never
comfortable in a room that's less
than 70 unless we're moving around.
If you bog down on tough math
problem that simply won't work out,
put it aside temporarily and go on
to something else. Often when you
come back to the baff1er with fresh
mind, the solution will simply leap
at you.
Try to tie up your studies when
ever possible with something in
which you're interested. The prob
lens of municipal government will
seem lot more real to you if your
father is currently arguing with the
city engineers office over your lot
boundaries. Chemistry will come
alive" If you have friend who's
working with nitrates on a defense
job.
If you've done your studying the
night before, it's often helpful to
give the assignment a quick once
over just before going to class. And
don't cram. A general review is all
you should need before examina-
tons, plus little extra attention to
your weak spots.

1t often occurs to me that no
professional worker is exposed to
so much mistaken advice as the
teacher. When there is diff1culty
requiring a lawyers service he is
asked for help and 1t usually Is ac-
cepted gratefully and its routine
carefully followed
Few laymen venture to advise
their lawyers. and II they do they
are soon made to realize their er-
ror. When illness strikes the fam
lily the doctor Is called His every
word falls on eager, straining ears
and his directions are followed to
the last syllable.
"The doctors order" Is SUM-
cient reason for the most unheard
of upheaval In family custom. The
doctor knows. The lawyer is smart.
Why else do I hire him?"
This is not true as to the teacher
Anybody feels competent not only
to advise, but to criticize and de-
mand and order whatever teacher
tries to do. Now why?
There is no training more severe
than that of the professional teach
er. There is no stricter discipline
than that which q teacher applies
to himself. There is no body Of
professional people whose ethics are
higher. whose record of public SER
vice Is cleaner than that of the
teaching body of these United
States.
But anybody with the use OF his
tongue can deplore. deride, denounce
the most earnest of teachers. If you
think this Is overdrawn listen for
one day TO what you hear people
around you saying to and about the
teacher in your own school.

This is the third day of Why Grow
Old's nine-day reducing diet. It's
really not bad, Is 1t?
You will see that two glasses of
milk appear almost every day on
the menus. Milk is one of those
maligned foods which the over
weight woman has sidestepped with
horror. Contrary to popular fall
lacy, milk itself Is not fattening
The cream in it is. Therefore drink
only SKINNED milk while following
this diet. If you don't like sweet
milk, substitute buttermilk.
It's best to forget butter for the
next nine days. On the longer re-
ducing diet some butter Is allowed,
but you can forget it with safety
for q short period. Use salt or lem
on on your vegetables. You may
not like this at first, but you will
soon discover that the vegetables
themselves have delicate, pleasant
