Appearance Counts

Most common reasons for rejec-

Objectionable personal traits and

employers interviewing applicants
take into consideration and allow

his qualifications. It is never easy
to sell oneself and that Is actually
what the job-seeker Is doing. His
best allies are his personal lp-

your good looks before you return To
your job, to school or your usual So
cial activities.
Perhaps you do use good suntan
oil or sunburn preventative, and
even plan special summer beauty
treatments and summer makeup,
but do you do the same for your
hair? No. You expose 1t carelessly to
the sun and wind with no protection
whatsoever. Unless you live in q
warm. humid section of the country
or beside the ocean, your hair needs
protective oils to keep the sun from
bleaching and drying out the ends.
Tonic Furnishes Hair

mer, In a boat or on the tennis
courts, in your garden or on a dude

yourself like an eXpert-something
that will look just as lovely In high
wind as in your own living room.
This will probably mean one Of the
shorter cuts with an expert perma-
nent over your entire head SO every
end has some curl in 1t.
II you are of to a fashionable re-
sort, where you'll put more empha-
sis on bridge or dancing than on
outdoor sports, you may keep your
long bob, but see that 1t Is shaped
and brushed to look like a veil of
spun silk. For this. too. you probably
need q permanent, but the softest
possible one merely to give the hair
body enough to make 1t more man
ageable.
Brush more. You must keep the
oil glands working to give the hair
a lovely sheen. II you are out in the
sun loG, however, or in the high,
dry attitudes Of the West. you
should give the hair extra help by
spraying it daily with light, pure
Oil created specifically to prevent
any bleaching, drying tendency Of
the sun.
When you brush, divide the hair
into small strands. Hold up the Sec
ton at right angles to the scalp.
Draw a stiff -bristled brush upward
from scalp to end Of hair. Brush
with rolling movement so there Is
a real Juggling at the scalp to exer-
else 1t as well as polish the hair.
Repeat until entire head has been
brushed In this -,-~---.
Simple Hair-Do Best
Use tonic more frequently. It's
grand for cleansing after the hair
has been dunked in salt water, or
when the hair Is dusty from long
car ride or moist with perspiration
after a vigorous game on warm
day. Part the hair at intervals all
over the head and rub each parting
with q cotton pad saturated with
tonic.
Massage by placing wrists firmly
on either side Of the head and with
the flngertips move the scalp freely
over the head with rotary move
ments. Now place fingers at nape Of
neck and move them with same ro-
tating movements up to the crown
Of the head. Continue until scalp
tingles with aroused circulation.
Now remove as much moisture as
possible with clean towel, then
brush thoroughly. wiping 0he bris-
ties frequently on the towel. You'll
be surprised at the amount Of soil
you can remove this way. When the
hair Is fluffy and clean-feeling.

Wipe of excess cream and rinse
with cold water before you go to
bed.
II the skin Is very dry you may
use cleansing cream in the morn
ing. but be sure to wipe on care
fully and use tonic to give 1t that
thoroughly clean feel. After this
apply light makeup, taking
time to do a thorough Job. This
is enough for the daily routine.
Be sure to have a regular time
each week for manicure, sham
poo and waveset. Try to have one
evening a week free from dates so
you can attend to all these lengthy
beauty chores at the same time.

why I have to give q detailed ac-
count Of everything I do. like q

The mother retorted she had q
right to know Of his doings as we'll
as his comings and going, and q
right to ask. She pursued this argu-
ment diligently while the boy raided
the ice box and gorged himself.
After he had eaten. he felt q good

to regret his rudeness. But nothing
In the world would make him admit
1t.
As In this case. many unnecessary
clashes between adolescents and
their parents result from unneces-
sary corrections or corrections
which are given at unfavorable
times. The parent Is not so apt to
meet with opposition here from q
younger child because the younger
child generally respects or fears his
authority more. The older child,
however, Is at an age where he
wants to be free and on his own.
This doesn't mean that he shouldn't
have supervision. but rather that
the time is past when you can get
at him through criticism or punish
ment.
Parents must show respect for
the adolescent's individuality. Let
him assert himself. Find out the
things that are most important to
him. Approach him with tact. At
tempt to guide rather than correct
him. And always be willing to COM
promise. You will be surprised at the
difference such treatment makes.

Is running the shirtwaist variety a

It's the fabric that gives new

This year laceS are highly regarded
and 1t is q fashion which women
find ideal for the travelling vacation

We suggest them for the young

We also suggest the fabric-like
laces for the older woman who likes
soft tailored styles because they
may be washed. For those who like
the sheerest laces there's the flmy
