Fashionable weddings so far this

and pretty styles for guests to wear.
The best and most appropriately
dressed choose either light

or a black sheer dress, lace

And the popularity Of narrow

Here are three smart ways to
treat your kitchen window to effec-

Whichever you choose to make,

one of these will cost under a dollar.
Better yet, if you have a cast-off -,

print cotton, use it 10 make a gay
TERED kitchen curtain. And If there
is sufficient material, you can add
to your kitchen drama by making a
Shirred valance that extends be-

wall, or around the room. In prac-
tiCally no time at all, the little gath
ering foot attachment will coax the
straight strips into even shirringS.
And you can quickly, finish off the
bottom edges of the tiers and val

which frames the top and sides Of
the window. Straight, 4-inCh wide

the aid of the pleater attachment.
Thumbtacks anchor the border to

Another equally attractive quick

which in turn feeds the hair folli-

definitely take more brushing, more
ShampooS and more attention to
balanced diet. 1t takes regular
CheCk-upS by the family doctor be-
cause the hair is quick to reflect
any changes in the organs or ner-
vOuS system.
Can Be Rinsed
Color Of the hair is less impOr-
tant if its texture and health are
good. OF course, if you wish to play
down your grayneSS, and can afford
to give the time to it these busy
days, then you can look into some
of the special tonlng rinSeS. Since
these are in a sense dyes, you should
have them tested and used only in a
beauty salon.
OF course, all OF these do not
ddrken the hair. There are bluing
rlnSes that make it appear more sill
very or even give it an interesting
purpliSh or mauve tone. Do not ask
for the latter, however, unless your
eyes are young and bright, your
features and figure exceptionally
good. Purple heads are theatrical
and your personality and appear
anCe must bear out this dramatic
quality in every way.
The safest way for the older wo-
man is TO achieve her drama with
good permanent, unless her hair
is naturally thick and has a nice
wave or curl, and an expert shap-
ing. The length Of the hair is not so
important. If the hair is quite thick
or made fluffy with a good perma-
nent, it can be cut to three or
ur-inch length over the entire
head and arranged to seem much
longer. Longer hair, on the other
hand, can be trained into sleek,
lovely lines, 70 Id d under and
pinned TO give the new short look.
The rule is that you should wear it
the length that is easiest for you
TO keep well groomed.
For Older Women
Unless your hair is shaped and
arranged so you can do It yourself
at home, your couture is not a good
one for you. All hair-dos these days
should be easy to set and keep in
place, neat and smOOth-looking for
wartime efficiency. Follow the lines
that are best for your head.
The modern version OF the
French roll is an excellent arrange
ment for the mature or older wo-
man. The hair is parted in three
sections. First, from ear to ear,
across the top Of the head, and then
from this parting at the crown to
the forehead. This can be either a
high side or center part. The hair
is set so the sides can be brushed to
the top in two thick, soft rolls ex-
tending from forehead back to
crown.
The back hair is brushed to the
center and then folded over into a
neat roll up the back Of the head.

Has No Thrills
For Adele
BY TALBOT LAKE

CONTINUING our series OF little
~ stories about women who have
snapped up Jobs that used TO be pri-
vate property of men, we come to
Miss Adele GTuSkin. Adele is a blue
eyed blonde, is 2l, and has job as
chauffeur on a scenic railway ride
at Palisades Amusement Park, in
New Jersey. Miss Gruskin, they say,
is the only scenic railway Jockey in
the world.
II happened this way: She was
cashier Of the ride when the draft
got the fellow who drove the car.
The managers had Miss Gruskin
ride around for three days with a
man until she got the hang Of 1t,
and then gave the job TO her.
Sic took the job because it paid
her better than the other one, and
because not so many people would
recognize her whizzing around the
ride with her back turned to the
passengers. II seems she's self
conscious. Even though she hates
riding in elevators, because they

Adele pilots the car on three

You may think you are moving a
hundred miles an hour at times, but
Adele makes sure that you aren't
doing more than fifty-or else you

There was a time, Adele remem-
berS, when she used to scream de-
lightedly when the car took the big
dips. But that was back in the days
when her boy friends used to pay
money to take the ride. Now she
never screams. She thinks the wo-
men do because they just can't help

from the skate. Fortunately, no
real damage was done, as the part
could be attached easily with the
skate key. But mother, who came
into the room at this point, called
him a naughty boy and pretended
that he had broken sisters skate.
She did this because of the boy S
propensity for taking things apart.
Only yesterday he had reduced the
efficiency of her egg beater by SINH
lar patient manipulation. Since he
apparently can't be trusted alone.
she is thinking of taking him with
her to answer the front door bell
from now on, and will make sure
there is nothing handy for him to
break when she must answer the
phone.
Arthur also has been known TO
take apart a new toy within 20 min
uteS after presentation. Wheels and
other outside parts, particularly on
mechanical type toys. are always
removed If he gets the chance to
work at them. Still, the mother
can't see that Arthur may be find
ing a new use for such toys, or that
he may be trying to find out what
makes them tick. She is just con-
WINGED that he is highly destructive.
II this weren't so, she reasons, he
might try putting things together
again once in while after breaking
them. She forgets that fixing things
takes mature skill and ingenuity.
If you have a child who likes to
pull things apart, don't Jump to the
conclusion that he is destructive,
Better look over the toy situation at
home. You may find that none OF
his toys. or not enough of them, sat-
isles an important play need for
taking things apart and putting
them together again. He should
have a set of large wooden blocks,

quently due to infections OF the
tonsils, sinuses and teeth and when
any of these is present, they
should be removed or treated be-
fore attempting treatment Of the
other condition.
Not Serious
Some of these glands become
large enough to interfere with
swallowing and breathing. If these
do not respond promptly to medical
treatment, surgery may be neCes-
sary. But as a general thing, medi-
cation will promptly cure the trOu-
BILE and surgery is seldom juStiti-
able If iodine is supplied, the gland
will shrink up and the swelling dis
appear.
These girls are often anaemic,
listless, irritable and depressed.
They tend to cry a "'t deal and
feel that life is not worth living and
nobody loves them.
About three grains OF sodium
iodide given once a day for ten days
and then discontinued for several
months will usually cure. Too much
iodine may cause an excess Of thy
roid secretion and do harm. All the
glands of the body are influenced
more or less by the activity of the
thyroid When taking iodine for
this trouble, one should consult his
physician occasionally to deter
mine whether a sufficient amount
or too much is being taken.
1t Is probable that all children
and many grown folks living in So
called goiter regions should receive
some iodine several times a year
Lately, so-called iodiZed salt is used
in the place of plain salt to supply
the deficiency. Adults using this
salt should see a doctor OCCASION
ally to be sure that the glands are
not too active and likely TO produce
hyperthyroidism.
IOdized Salt Cures
Most simple golfers disappear by
the age Of twenty. They are usually
harmless except for the appear
ance. Many schools and cities have
small doses Of iodine for a short
time every six months or once a
year and find that gOiter has been
greatly reduced.
The general use Of iodi2ed salt in
families with growing children has
almost eradiCated the disease II
these methods do not reduce the
size of the gland, one should look
for sources of infection and remove
them
Absence of gland substance, and
resulting lack Of secretion, some
times results in a condition known
as Cretinism. Accidental removal OF
too much Of the gland by opera
ton may cause this trouble A child
born with a defective or absent
thyroid does not develop mentally.
The face and body are puffy, large
and dull; the hair is thin and dead
looking, the facial expression va
cant. If the feeding of gland sub
stance is begun early in these cases
and continued, complete recovery
may take place. Sometimes this
feeding must be continued through
life. Early recognition and treat
ment will cure most cases.
