home. Yet. sad to say, it often
happens. The boys at the office

But may remind you, gentlemen.
that there are some of us women
who are still sort Of babies about
Christmas? And I should think
that once year we might be
pampered in our small sentimental
tiles.
We like to trim the tree with
husbandly assistance, as part of
the Christmas ritual. And we like
to put the presents around the tree
with some one there to egg us on.
We don't really care so much
whether he is kidding us or f1atter-
ing us. We just like the idea of
sticking to family traditions on
Christmas Eve.
1t really means a lot to us. you
know. So don't you think you'd bet

the most priceless bits of Christmas.
All of us can give up anything
that becomes necessary as the
months go on, but these are the
things that can never be taken
away. With heavy draperies drawn
against the outside world. each
house may be a vivid realization of
Christmas within-of all its warmth,
Joy and happiness. and recreation
of all the sentimental tradition
which binds us together.
So, let's do all the things we used
to do. Let's serve our own home
made cookies and hot-spiced drinks
on Christmas Eve. invite our friends
for q Christmas tree trimming and
wait up for Santa to come. Let's
sing carols and 60 to church on
Christmas Day. Let's cook a turkey
and visit our friends and be con-
sciously old-fashioned about Christ
mas, so that this will be another TO
remember.
There is no doubt that there are
long months OF W0rTy, anxiety ana
giving up" ahead. We can all DO
this without harm, if We can keep
safe the things that are so very
dear to us. We will work on our
houses ourselves, when there is no
one to do it for US, to keep them
mended, painted and brave. We
will polish floors, make over drap-
cries, clean upholstery. make slip
covers, and do any other task that
it takes to preserve all the things
that belong to us. We will contrive
blackout curtains, arrange to dim
lights. go without needed materials
and all the rest that We are asked
to do, but in the meantime. and
especially on Christmas Eve, We
will make a real old-fashioned
Christmas in our own houses-to
remember.

| |WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine LoWman

I am giving you suggestions this
week as little gifts which I hope
will add to your comfort. beauty
and enjoyment OF life.
We all know now that a scalp
which is too oily or too dry may
predispose us to early graying and
will surely make our hair drab and
colorless if given time.
The lady whose scalp is too dry
has a difficult problem. II she uses
hot oil on her hair several times a
week in the prescribed manner, she
makes herself unpresentable for
much of the time and must have
very frequent shampoos. The
method OF rubbing generous 1uantl-
ties of oil into the hair and then
leaving it on overnight is most try
ing
Instead Of applying oil with cot
ton, use very small tooth brush and
put very little oil on the brush. Part
the hair progressively over the head
and apply oil to the scalp with the
brush, Just at the base of the hair.
AfterWard, give your neao ltS TeSu-
lar nightly brushing.
If you are careful about the size
Of your brush and the amount of oil
you use, you will find that the hair
keeps it's normal appearance, with
only slightly more oiliness, and can
be dressed as usual. A weekly sham
poo should suffice.
A dry shampoo is a good pickup
for blonds in between soap and
water shampoos. Rub corn meal
through the hair and then brush 1t
all out.
It has been suggested that red
heads should add an equal part OF
orris root and dash Of cinnamon.
Brunettes should stick to wet sham
poos.

Nothing will pep up a woman

The stimulation of the blood

may hear to the contrary. many
physicians tell me that exercise Is
excellent when one is fatigued from
a sedentary position. So instead
of falling into bed when you are
dog tired, timber your body by bend

Must Odahoned Christmas Long to Be Remembered
Exciting Day
For Small
Children
Christmas Dinner
With the Family
Is Large Event
Ry Lefficp Lee Street,

By Leffice Lee STREET.
To a child Christmas Day Is not
just exciting, it is the most impor-
tant occasion of the entire year from
the miraculous moment when he
opens his stocking to the unwelcome
bedtime when he finally falls to
sleep q very weary little widgeon.
Apart from the toys and fun that
keep a youngster keyed up on
Christmas Day he very often has
another thrilling moment to face.
and this is having dinner for the
first time, possibly, with grown-ups.
The elaborate Christmas feast
does not appeal to the or year
old as general thing because
the sight Of so many strange foods
is somewhat overcoming and, also,
his baby palate is only accustomed
TO young dishes.
Mary Jane, aged 5, caused con-
siderable CONSERVATION among
her family when she fatty refused
TO eat a bit of Christmas dinner.
She hung her head utterly miser-
able, and large tears dripped off her
sorrowful small nose upon her
heaped-high dinner plate.
Her mother wisely led Mary Jane
upstairs where after a few quiet
/ moments she put before her her own
special plate that had on It a
small bit Of those foods from the
dinner that the mother knew her
little girl would like and was &C
customed to eating.
The first time that a youngSter
sits at the table when guests are
present he is apt to feel embarrass-
ment and apprehension. Grown
ups are tolerant of the table-man-
ner errors made by very small chill
dren, but when a child is old enough
to manage a fork. knife and spoon.
perfection is often expected of him.
/ Sometimes, too. a mother will be
so keen to show off her child's
good manners that she adds to his
anxiety by fixing him with a de-
termined look and she even scolds
him for errors that are not very
serious. Little children feel very
Inundated when they make such
mistakes as dropping spoon or
spilling food on the table IN the
presence of strangers
In order TO ease the situation for
the family and the child. too, you
may see to it that his food is cut
up into small pieces and that he
is not given anything to eat that
is difficult to handle. If you will
put a tray. or large oil cloth
dolly under his plate you will
relieve his anxiety as we'll as your
own.
The average menu for the Christ
mas dinner is too varied. heavy and
highly seasoned TO be suitable for
the young child. But the mother
whose small children will come TO
the table on this gala day may plan
a meal that includes certain dishes
that little people may eat safely
and enjoy, too.

our sleepy chum expressed his.
For instance, there are a lot OF
people who do like to trim their
own trees. Silly of them it may
be. but now and then you'll find
people with fixed ideas about how
q Christmas tree should look, and
maybe they even have g system
all their own worked out. So, we
suggest that before you plunge
whole -heartedly into dressing up
your hosts anemic pine, you find
out how he relishes the idea. You
can tell from the reception ac-
corded your suggestion that Wen
all trim your tree for you, old
mani"
Another thing about these Christ
mas calls is the time they start. as
well as the time they end. Some
people don't consider it civilized to
dine before 8 pm. and it's a toss
up to see who feels sillier-you or
the diners when you barge gaily
in during the entree. All you can
do Is cool your heels in the living
room until dinner is over and by
that time you've lost the holly
wreath and mistletoe spirit.
Speaking Of mistletoe, it's very gay
to take advantage Of all the priv
ileses it offers, but don't overdo
the whole thing. In our day we've
known playful characters to walk
sentry duty under the sprig in the
hall, waiting to pounce upon any
unsuspecting arrival. For the first
dozen times or so. it's fun: after
that the whole performance be-
comes q this is where I-came-ln
sort Of thing.
We don't particularly insist that
YOU stick to Emily Posts idea OF a
| 2O-minute duration for social calls
but it's a good idea to watch the
time when you pay Christmas eve
calls. Sometimes your smiling hosts
are actually thinking about the
dozen calls they have to make. too
and secretly hoping that you'll let
them keep Just q little bit OF their
eegnog and fruit cake for the week
between Christmas and New Year
OF course, If you're invited to come
and stay the evening, that's some
| thing else again.
Arrive at q respectable hour. leave
at a sane one and act like a con-
siderate visitor-and you'll be
known as that nice Jones couple
who really are perfect guests"

Brand.New Version
OF Bread Pudding
Is Tempting

The first bread pudding. so they
say. was invented when the heel
of a loaf was charmed by unseen
little folk" and made to fall into
a pan Of custard that was cooking
on the hearth in an ancient Welsh
household. The pudding that re-
suited was so delicious that cooks
have been duplicating it and adding
innovations ever since.
Two brand-new versions are Of
fered here. The first. prunella pud-
ding, requires no baking: the sec
ond. mince bread pudding. has the
rich, tangy flavor Of mince pie.
