he was inclined to drink too much
when he drank at all, and you could
have thus saved yourself and him
all OF the misery you have been
through.
However, what is done Is done.
The past cannot be mended now and
whatever you decide to do must be
largely based on your husbands at
titude. Perhaps in his misery over
losing you and the children he has
lost hope and self Prospect and has
been drowning his sorrow in drink.
Perhaps your going has awakened
him to the danger he was in and
given him the lesson he needed.
Only you can decide that question
and judge what his chances of re-
forming are, and only you can de-
eide whether you love him enough
to take the risk Of the future with
him. 1t is thing about which you
shouldn't let your family make up

Why Grow Old?
BY Josephine Lo,Cman

Most people regret the loss of a
close knit family companionship.
Long ago when life was simple,
the family gathered each evening
about the family hearth or the
kitchen stove and spent their leisure
hours together. For some time now,
the son or daughter has used the
home as refueling station and the
wife and husband have been as far
apart as east and west, what with
fathers clubs and golf and business
and mothers clubs and bridge!
In current times the family should
have gathered about the radio, but
somehow this did not work out.
Tastes in entertainment are too
different and what sent Junior
almost sent father to padded CELL
Today I am going to give you new
slant on re-establishing the family
group. Gay times together will help
parents stay younger longer.
This year our family decided that
instead of having a vacation we
would buy an air-conditioning unit.
The unit was placed in downstairs
sunparlor. Now. when returning in
the afternoon, we find all of our
family, and some people we have
Evening star., 1947-09-17

not seen for years, fathered together
in this one spot.
I now have a well-estahlished
goal. or it was my goal, for two more
units upstairs next summer. How
ever, my husband has put his veto
on this. He says 1T Is wonderful to
come home and know where he will
find his whole family waiting for
him. AS you have guessed, we live
in climate which is hot six months
out of each year and we all suffer
from high temperatures. We have
moved everything but the kitchen
stove into this room.
This column sounds facetious. but
I feel more serious than I sound.
If we can build up a comfortable
and amusing and stimulating
enough an atmosphere in our homes,
our family unit will be somewhat
restored and the family fun will lead
to added years of good living for
you.
Your solution probably isn't air
conditioning, but il you'll think
about it, you'll devise some equally
effective ways of keeping members
of your family interested in each
other, and, therefore, interested in
life.

scalp particles and leaves the hair
soft and glossy.
If you do your own hair, as most
women do, the pin curl" is another
equally important step. Pin curls
should never be more than one inch
square. Dampen the piece of hair
with plain water. Comb out and
twist the ends into slight point.
Keep these twisted ends of hair
in the center. Roll the strands of
hair in circle until rolled close to
the scalp Hold the circle fiat and
tight on the scalp and clip the curl
with hairpin. Place another hair
pin crosswise so that the curl is
held firmly. Never roll your hair
while it is soaking wet. Always
towel dry it so that very little damp
ness remains.
After all this hair-fixing ritual is
done, take a wide satin ribbon or a
folded scarf square and tie it around
your head You'll be far more at
tractive looking that way than with
the pins showing!

Dear Miss Dix: I am a young
woman % years old, married, have
two children, and my husband and I
have been separated nearly a year.
I left him when he came home on
two or three occasions intoxicated.
I loved him, as he was good and kind
to me, but my folks insisted on nv
leaving him. Said he would never
amount to anything.
He wants me to come back to him,
but my parents and my sisters do
not want me to do so. What shall
I do?-E. A. A.
Answer-An occasional drink does
rot make a man a drunkard, and it
seems to me that you were frantic
ally quick to condemn your husband
and that you met the situation with
neither patience nor wisdom. If you
had been a little more forbearing,
you might have induced him to give
up drinking altogether, seeing that

with fine idea to help you keep
your hair clean and lovely. They've
produced an Introductory kit that
contains four special preparations
for hair beauty. There's an "egg
creme" shampoo that has mild
lemon-verbena fragrance and is
rich with egg concentrate. Then
there's rinse that is excellent for
dry or oily hair And for those
troubled with dandruff there's a
clear germicidal liquid that, when
used between shampoos, helps to
keep the scalp clean and the hair
pleasantly scented. For the finish
ing touch there's a creme hair
dressing that is lanolin-rich
grooming preparation. This helps
make the hair manageable and gives
it high lights 1t is also very at

tive hair will be a necessity Your
hair will probably match the clothes

thing this year. 1t is easily cared
for, so many women will have no
qualms about shearing their locks.
But whether you wear your hair long
or short you'll have to take care
of it.
Brushing is another important
step. Ann Delafield, well-knoWn
beauty adviser, says that IF you
spare the brush, you spoil the scalp"
Brushing helps revitalize the hair
follicles and makes it more beauti-
full. She suggests this brushing
routine: Lie fiat on your back with
your head hanging down over the
side of the bed. Brush your hair
in this head-down position. Brush
until your scalp feels warm and
tingles. Wipe your brush on a
towel frequently during the brush

Comment. It's been years since
I've made this catsup. It's delicious
but it has to be cooked a little
longer than the time given and I
add a little more sugar. I taste
until I get desired sweetness and
cook until quite thick. Well worth
the effort.
I have delicious chilli sauce
recipe If any one cares for it.
Now for some requests of my
own. am moving into the country
in the near future and would like
some very explicit directions for
smoking meats. Kinds of wood best
used for the purpose. I'm pretty
good at canning but would appreci-
ate any information or suggestions
on anything that will help us, as we
are going to try to live off the land
as far as possible.
