It's a Good Habit
To Garry a
Muff
BY ELEANOR GUM

NEW YORK - Among the good
y habits women are forming is
that of carrying huge muffs. not SO
much because hands are cold. but
that hearts need warming. When
you are writing your letter to Santa
Claus, the one you leave under hub
by's plate one of these morning, you
probably won't forget to include
muff among your list of wants. And
if you are the type that feels that
muff should be worn solo. you can
have it of any pelt you like, remem-
boring that the long-haired furs,
such as fox. make the large muff
look even larger.
When you go places where you
check your coat at the door, don't
check your muff. run your arm
through it and wear it as part OF
the indoor ensemble. You may not
want to take your muff dancing
literally. that is - in which case
leave it with your purse on the Ia
BILE. But many muffs have inner
pockets that do away with the ne
cessity for carrying a purSe-in
fact, most muffs are so finished.
Everyone seems convinced that
there will be more fur-bearing ami
mails admitted to smart places this
winter than ever. But just to be
different, you'll find women who do
not wear fur coats. or even neck
pieces. but who can't resist either
a fur muff or hat-or both.
Fortunately for those who plan
to muff it after Christmas. If not
before. there are under-arm bags,
and those that swing from either
arm or shoulder, that release ones
hands for their luxurious fur bur-
den. But the smartest thing to do is
to run the muff up the arm, leaving
the other hand free.
Report has already been duly
made of the return Of stoles. many
of which are fringed with tails.
That the ermine stole is among the
old favorites returned hardly needs
to be mentioned, since everyone
who gets around knows that there
is strong feeling for all white furs,
and. after all, they are limited. The
outstanding ones are ermine. white
caracul and fox.

After the war, Lieut.. Schwaeble

Finally, mother lost her patience

of startled eyes sought mothers.

anyway.
This is far from a satisfactory
state Of affairs. A child should un-
derstand that obedience is required
no matter what the parents tone.
The parent who must Screech to q
child to accomplish the desired end
has failed In child training some
where along the line. Children must
be able to rely upon what we say. A
simple, please don't do that"
should be sufficient to get results. It
will be. If we have been consistent.
Where the parent shouts all the
time. children get used to 1t. To at
tract attention now. one would have
to do something unexpected, like
whispering. which Is about the last
thing such parent would do. He
would just shout the louder.
Little people don't want to be
naughty. Frequently. rather, they
misbehave because we have failed
to make ourselves clear. as when
voice and manner contradict our
intention. Children are very sensi-
tive to parental moods. They study
us and try us out all the time. but
they should learn that they cannot
take advantage when we are in one
of our lighter moods.

ideal and that she's going to ind
herself on the shelf unless she snaps
out Of IL and recognizes the male
animal as normal. not as she sees
him - too much of the ordinary
mortal.
The girls mother says that she
wishes her daughter would fall in
love and marry, and she seems q
bit upset because Of my hope that
she fall in love and out again before
she really falls in love for keeps.
Learns About Love
The girl who hasn't fancied her
self in love and broken hearted has
not lived. She's missed one, or sew
eral. Of life's most satisfying adven-
lures and I'd like to bet. once mar
ried to the first man in her life. she
will always regret the sentimental
Journeys she might have taken were
she not too critical.
Not that I'm for girls who expert
ment with what 1t pleases them to
call love, but ! just have more con-
fidenCe in a girl who has not cheat
ed herself out Of some informative
experiences. She's lots more likely
to make q good wife, since by the
time she marries she has q pretty
general. II somewhat hazy. notion
about life and what she expects Of
and from the man she marries.
Let her shop around a bit before
bringing home her final selection.
She will learn something of values
and what the market offers. and
she will be less likely to wish she
had waited or taken Tom instead
Of Dick and less likely to wish she
could exchange Dick for Harry.
Marriage is for keeps, or should
be. unless there's something dread
fully wrong.
Certainly when one plans to
marry, one plans on it being q life
job. Frequent as divorces are. most
people are sorry to hear OF them
and sorrier still to go through with
one. There are publicity seekers and
lighter-than-air couples who think
they might as well try marriage. as
they have tried everything else.
But, after all. although they make
the headlines. they are. fortunately
for the country. vastly in the mi
nority. A happy marriage has no
news value-it's only the unhappy
one we read about.
Have Their Faults
Girls should be choosy about the
man they marry. but they should
not be stepped in romantic non
sense and fantastic notions about
men. They have their faults. but so
have the girls who sit in Judgment
on them. II you ask me. men are
pretty fine and quite worth mar
rying. It's little absurd for girls
to expect. or want. to belong to the
exclusive I-married-an-angel set,
and probably would regret 1t II they
did draw a male angel whose wings
had never even been ruffled.
Understanding mothers are not
afraid to have their girls fall in
love. It's when they don't that they
worry. since 1t Is the fate Of normal
girls to fall in love easily and out
again with only few slight jolts.
The girl who finally gets to know
the difference between sham and
the real article. and who then mar
ries and has babies. Is doing big
job-and liking 1t.

There's work to be done and
you'll have to do it, SO you might as
well adopt different viewpoint.
Remember first ola that you must
be healthy. Your work, whether at

strong legs, strong back, steady

and as much fresh air.

Don't let more work and strain

lovely as we'll. put yourself on a
well-diSciplined diet-one that is
not too high in calories but rich in
vitamins, minerals and the build

No matter how busy you are.

exercise-part of it outdoors. Walk
part of the way home from your
job II you go to business or work in

time out for a 10-minute walk
sometime during the day. Walk
to the store to do your marketing,

exercise for improving posture and

Simplify skin care if you must.
but be regular and meticulous
about grooming. A daily all-over
bath, even though you must de-
pend on company showers or on a
wash basin in your own home, is a
must. The use of deodorant is a
must, too, even though you rarely
stir from your own kitchen.
Freshly Numbered underclothes
and a freshly ironed house dress or
coveralls help you to feel and look
pert and efficient.
Face Gets a Lift
Give makeup a chance to do all
It can for you. A rather deep
toned foundation cream seems to
give warmth and sparkle to your
skin. Over it use light rosy shade
of powder and the color seems to
glow through from your own skin.
Take time enough to blend 1t spar
ingly and evenly over the entire
face. It will double the lasting
qualities of other makeup.
Give your face lift. for in
stance If you use rouge. apply 1t
high on the cheekboneS and blend
it out and up to the temples. Even
II your natural color is good, keep
rouge on hand for days when you
look and feel droopy and gray
When you apply lipstick, remember
to give 1t q tiny up-line at the outer
corners of your mouth, so the lips
look relaxed and ready to smile.
The clear, true reds are freshest,
youngest and most natural In ap-
pearance.
Take care Of your eyes. If you
can keep them looking clear and
bright, your entire face will look
younger and rested. Lie down Tor
