Proper Guidance
Very Difficult
To Achieve
R1 Dorothv D;,
By Dorothy Dix

The question of how close a super
vision mother should keep over
her daughters is one with which
every woman with girls has to
Wrestle. and it is one with which
most of them seem totally made
quate to deal. They run to extremes
in the matter and generally are
either too lax or too strict. They
either lock their Mamies and Sadies
up in dungeon cell, SO to speak. or
else turn them loose to roam the
world at their own sweet wills.
And when We read about their
cocktail marriages, their divorces
and the scandals they get themselves
into, and often of their tragic deaths
in some drunken brawl or automo-
bile accident, we blame their
| mothers We ask why didn't their
mothers watch over them and pro-
tect them? Why did their mothers
let them run wild, with no one to
guide them or hold a steadying hand
upon them?
And we are right, for, no matter
| how wise and sophisticated and
capable OF taking care of themselves
| IS and l6 think themselves, their
mothers know better. and it is their
| mothers duty to save them from
/ themselves. When God puts little
/ girl baby into its mothers arms. He
/ lays terrible responsibility upon
her and one for which she will have
| 10 account when she faces the Judg-
ment Bar.
But the mothers who are too weak
or too fond to ever control their
daughters, and who let them hurtle
/ down TO destruction unchecked. are
/ not the only ones who have baleful
/ influence on their girls lives. Just
as often it is the good mother, the
/ mother who, as she says, devoteS her
/ life to her children, who never takes
/ her eyes off Of her girls or lets them
/ make a move that she doesn't direct,
who wrecks their happiness.
/ Mother exercises this tyranny
/ over her daughters in the compla-
/ cent belief that she is keeping them
unSpOtted from the world Maybe
she is, but she is also keeping them
out Of the world, because she is
keeping them out of all contact
with their generation, and she is
/ forthcoming them to spinisterhood
The moral of all of which is that
mothers should use discretion ir
dealing with their daughters. Be
strict, but not too strict. Keep a
wary eye on them. but don't make
them feel that you are always spy
| ing on everything they do.

more dramatic than ever. with stone
studded gold predominating. j.. Pas
tel headcoveringS Of the mantilla-
fascinator variety apparently solve
the problem of a protective head
covering when no tiny chapeau is
available.
One of the most interesting ex-
perimentS going on in town is the
clothes consultation class being held
at the Hotel for Women up on Six
teenth street. Unfortunately for
the rest of Washington, these classes
are restricted at the moment to
residents of the hotel, but we think
it's important enough to tell you
what goes on and perhaps inspire
you to follow some Of the ideas.
Hannah Sherman. the expert in
charge. first interviews the girls,
finding out why they want to sign
up for the claSS-Whether it's be-
cause they want a better job, more
beauX or are just plain unhappy
about their appearance. Then, the
girls must devote three weeks 10
being selfish, really OVERRIDING" the
bathing, creaming, polishing, hair
brushing routineS so that good hab-
its will be formed and careful groom
ing will become automatic.
The lessons start off with accent
on the coiffure, how to care for the
hair and how to style it most be-
comingly. Once she is "analyzed"
the girl must wear her hair in this
fashion for a week to get used to
the whole idea. There's also some
discussion on hats, the proper type
to suit each student.
Then follows advice on skin care
and makeup, with helpful criti-
cism from the other students and
explanations by Miss Sherman.
Comes next the clothes lesson, dur
ing which the girls in the hotel
bring down their best outfits for
approval or suggestions, are told
about proper color, line and acces-
sories and advised how to distribute
their spending in order to get the
most benefit. The fourth lesson,
which will be inaugurated shortly,
will consider conservation, how to
make over clothes and care for
them so they will be wearable for
several occasions.
The girls are all most enthusiastic
about the idea Of becoming new
women" under the guidance of
specialist. They help each other
and profit by the advice given to
each of the eight girls in a class.
And best of all the whole course is
lust between us girls'-no military
secret is more closely guarded than
the problems of the individual.
AS we say. it's too bad that it's
still restricted, but it's definitely a
step in the right direction. And it
wouldn't surprise us too greatly to
see other, similar classes spring up
before very long.

Why Grow Old
Question Box
By Josephine Lo,Uman

Please do not write questions to
the why Grow Old" question box
unless you read the Friday column
regularly.
I ask this because there is so
much repetition in your questions.
do not want to let your letters 60
unanswered. However, if I wrote
about hip exercises and pimpies and
calf reduction and bust development
every day you would all tire OF read
ing about them. Watch for direc-
tions concerning the question you
ask each day, and il it has been
answered recently, your letter may
not appear.
Also do not be discouraged. All
letters I receive are answered in the
order in which they come, but it may
take quite a long time to get to
yours.
l. Can you give some exercise
that will work the muscles on the
right side only?"
Answer-Yes. Stand about 2 feet
from the wall Place the hand OF
the side you wish to develop on the
wall in front of You, Let your weight
lean toward the wall. Push away
from the hand. Continue, letting
your body move toward the wall, and
then push away. Take a weight in
the same hand. Lift the arm with
stiff elbow, all the way up. Slowly
lower. Continue.
O. "Is there any way to remove
scars left on the face by pimples?"
Answer-Time is the best medicine.
They do fade as time goes on. Gentle
massage with melted cocoa butter
may help some. too. You can cover
them with makeup.
3. Il have premature gray hair
and would like to know the best
method for dyeing it. Will you advise
me as to what I should use?"
AnsweI-Sorry I cannot help you.
I know nothing of hair -dyeing and
am not qualified to advise. Consult
a specialist in this line.
4. How can I get rid OF bunchy
muscles in the legs?'
Answer-Bunchv muscles are short
muscles Try stretching them to
make them longer. Lie on your
back and lift each leg separately
pulling the toes back toward your
head as you do so.
5. How can I get thinner in my
face? My cheeks are exceptionally
plump"
Ansver-The only way I know is
to lose weight generally. If you do
not need to do that. then forget it.
You will line less easily and probably
look pretty.
6. please tell me what I can do
when pluck my eyebrows? They
are left dark and shiny"
AnsWer-I do not know what you
mean. Dark. shiny eyebrows are
what we all crave. Some of us put
mascara on to make them dark
