night with Jerry and Helene and
Tom? I mean, can't I come home
without Fathers coming for me?"
mo. Your father and I are
willing that you go to the dance
with the others in the car. but
Father will go for you at the time
we set and bring you home"
But why? All the others are
going to be by themselves. I'll be
the only one whose father comes
after her. I'd rather stay home"
Then stay home. dear. Home
is a good place and we will be
glad to have you there, for we
don't like this night dancing very
much. The last dance ended in
the small hours and Mrs. Dolores
told me that Diana got home at
| S o'clock in the morning. And
you remember Don went into the
ditch and smashed his fathers
car. Luckily, he got off with
few cuts himself. No. Dad will
go for YOU"
Listen, Puss," said Father upon
hearing this sad wall. ""If you

head and hands than yours to see
you safely home. Not that we
want to cramp your style, but we
would like you to get back home
all of a piece and in good spirits
for the next day."
Puss grumbled. She went to
the party, however, and Dad was
on hand to take her home. Girls
and boys of 15-some who are
older. too-should be grateful for
parents who care enough about
their welfare to sacrifice their rest
and sleep to keep them as safe as
possible in these days of speed
and excitement.

self-willed child to her anxious
parents. The facts of life? Who
knows them? There are more
facts in life than youth can dream
of. Sex is not the only fact. And
all the facts have implications
and overtones that are equally
as important as the facts. How
can IS years be balanced against
40-odd in experience and UNDER
standing of life's hard facts?
Sensible girls-intelligent girls

WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine Lowman

If your eyes are too small you
are no different from many Of the
movie stars, so take heart! I
could mention several big name
stars who have very small eyes.
However, clever makup in life and
on the screen can make a big
difference!
If you have small eyes, do this:
arch the brows upward. Do not
make this too extreme. Mascara
is for you! Use one of the eyelash
curriers', which sweep your lashes
upward and then apply mascara
on the upper lashes, from stem to
stern.
A very small dot of rouge, skill
fully blended and applied at the
inner corners Of the eyes, will help.
If you use eye shadow at all, use
it sparingly and choose light
shade.
An even more effective method
is to draw a very light line out
ward at the outer corners of the
eye, or a line underneath the
lower lashes. Either line should
be blended and shaded with the
finger. This must be very subtle
in order to be effective and should
be used mainly in the evening.
Use lipstick sparingly, and if you
use rouge. apply it fairly high on
the face.
If your eyes are very light in
color there are things you can do
to enhance them. The colorS you
use in your clothes make a differ
ence. The shade of your dress can
bring out the color of your eyes
or fade them. Experiment with
this. Light blue eyes look bluer
when you wear blue. or look gray
when you wear purple.
If you have light brown eyes
use a green or violet eyeshadow.
If you have light green eyes the
same colors will be effective. Be
sure to highlight your brows and
lashes with mascara and eyebrow
pencil.
If your eyes are too close to-
gether, increase the distance be-
tween your brows by using the
tweezers on the inside brow line.
the part over your nose. Make
your brows a little longer by
drawing a very light and subtle
line at the ends. using an eyebrow
pencil. Apply your mascara heavily
on the outer lasheS, those away
from the nose, and very lightly,
if at all. on the lashes toward the
center of the face.

BRAIDED RUGS
From Mrs. r. E. ~, HuoheSUule

From Mrs. r. E. ~. HuoheSUille.)
To Mrs. P. O.. Hyattsville, OF
the subject of braided rugs have
made several of this type of rug
and would love to. help some one
else.
Experience will teach you
whether you prefer bias cut o.
straight cut material but I Shoulc
ask a beginner to work with bias
cut strips. For beginners I think
a wider strip, say three inches
wide, would be easier for the un'
trained hand to handle, as thi:
would furnish a thicker strip TX
lap over and make wider braid tt
work with.
To avoid the hump in the
middle of the finished rug" yol
must keep the beginning rounds
fiat, as we'll as every other roune
to the finish. To do this unfolc
your card table and sit in a chail
not too high and not too low. Now
if you want a round rug sew the
braid together on the wrong Sld'
with strong thread. Use a heavy
but slim needle and this is where
you will need a thimble surely
Make two or three rounds holding
in the hands. Now. lay it on the
table, right along the edge, nex1
to you. Keep it lying there, fiat
as you work. Make the stitches al
least one fourth inch apart. nc
farther. Raise the braid only
enough to let your fingers under
the unsewed part. Keep the par1
already sewed on the table. Don't
forget it's easier if you work al
the edge Of the table. I alway:
braid about eight feet then sew Il
on, then braid some more.
I don't object to a rough edge
showing in my finished rug, but
II you do, then you have a much
longer work job trying to hid'
these edges. If you sew the rough
edges under with machine vol
have stiff strand to braid which
is harder to handle. braid th'
odd edges and seams under tt
the wrong side as much as possible
Don't braid the strands togethe
too tightly and not too loosely
either. My reason for cutting tn
ends Of the strips diagonally i
to avoid thick hump in the brait
where the two pieces are joined.
If you want a wider braid yol
should learn how to braid Will
four strands. 1t really is cas-.
and very pretty, but few people
know how. I used to watch m!
grandmother do this but neve
learned from her so that late
after years I had to discover 10
myself by trial and error.
Let's see If can explain hov

strands together and hang then

For a night before payday

and is also quick and easy" Pre-
pare water to boil 70 package OF

soup. both diluted with leftover
vegetable liquid If on hand, any
leftover vegetables suitable for
soup, especially spinach chopped
fine. 3 weiners boiled and sliced
thin. Heat and add spaghetti:
No additional seasoning is needed
as the mixed vegetables and soups
are seasoned. This is a regular

the "dabs" in the ice box! Served
with a fruit salad such as whole
cranberry sauce over heap OF
chopped lettuce, plus mayon-
