IiUROTIIY IIIX SAYS-

i (Continued From Page 3)

Now my husband's mother has to live with someone, and without telling or consulting either my husband or myself the rest of the iam- iiy have decided that she must come to live with us. I am stunned at the prospect. Why shouldn't the other children, who arc all married and have homes oi’ their own and bigger houses. take their mother to live with them instead of palming her of! on us?

ANXIOUS.

ANSWER: m; reason in the world. and the thing for you to do is to absolutely refuse to have the old lady wished off on you. Dont let the others make you the family goat. v

Why don't you settle the matter in a sensible way by all oi the sons and daughters contributing a certain amount to their mother's support and locating her in some good boarding house?

DEAR MISS DIX: Will you please scttie this problem for us? Which are the more beautiful, men or women?

TEEN-ACrERS

ANSWER: It is said that beauty is in the eye oi the beholder, and whether you think a man or a woman the better looking depends upon the individual and your taste. Neither sex has a monopoly on beauty. But. taking it by and large, I think that ivcmen are easier on the eyes than men. mainly because they take more time and thought and pains to make themselves attractive.

Also, clothes do a lot to enhance women's appearance Women have the advantage oi being able to camouflage their bad points by s\vath- ingthem in chiifons. by having ambrosial curls that are only theirs by right of purchase. and by painting roses on checks that never grew them naturally; whereas men have to be pretty much as God made them.

smacking is coming back -not only on children's wear, but for llit! well-dressed woman, who likes her clothes gathered and full. Smocking at the shoulders, at the waist, and even at s side-hip drap- ing, which is so fashionable now, are all very popular.

‘CLOTHES FIT BETTER

The new styles require fewer al- terations than the old ones did. In fact, it is the concensus of opinion tuat the newer dresses are easier to fit and require less alteration.

The most alteration at the pres- ent time is the hemline, since most women prefer their dresses i4 to l5 inches from the ground end most dresses are being made Just l. little longer.

Women who have always had to have their dresses altered are still having it done, while the woman who seldom had any alterations has even less now.

Alteration prices are the same in all the larger departments and silops with charges made for all alterations regardless o-i the price oi the dress.

BABY-SITTING ROLE

Are you making s baby sitter out of grandma?

Judging from the number oi let- ﬂs I've had from older women king the past few days, s lot of young married couples would have to answer ,"yes" to that question, say! a woman writer. Here is a part oi a typical letter: "My son and his wife have a lot of friends and like to go out and against my will, I've been elected as chief baby sitter. "Sometimes they telephone ahead and ask me ii I'll keep the children while they play golf, go off for a week-end or get together with‘a crowd of their friends for an evening. But often they just drive by and say airlly, ‘How about keeping the kids for us? and I'm stuck. _

“I don't like to refuse them. but since they have money and recre- ation lt seems to me they should put some aside to pay a baby sitter when they want to go out, instead oi imposing on me."

The fed-up grandmother is right oi’ course. No young couple has a right to make an unwilling baby sitter out o! Grandma.

When a baby sitter is needed. grandma‘ seems to be the Number One candidate. She doesn't charge

after midnight.

What grandma oulht to do of course is to announce at the birth of her first grandchild: "I'm de- lighted to be s grandmother. but I don't ever intend to become s

Her laugh was evasive. Just making a purchase {or Chloe -she smokes imported cheroots." “That's very interesting." He sounded disappointed.

The young man arose from his search. His face was pale and each freckle seemed to stand out in- dlvldually. He placed s wrapped box in front of her that she was sure had been on the counter when she entered. She was about t0 pick it up when he added a package of cigarettes.

"Perhaps you'll like to try these." he said. “It's a sample of the new brand that's finding such favor with the ladies."

She almost replied that she didn't smoke when something urgent, and appealing in his young eyes stopped her. She placed the

unwanted packet in her purse murmurlns her thanks. ' The traffic on Royal sneer

bummed steadily, but for a long Ind unpleasant moment the small tobacco shop was as silent and breathless as s tomb.

Lotus stared uneasily at the ted-headed young clerk. He seem- ed to be speaking with his eyes. What did he want to say? His expression was warning and pur- poseful. Suddenly she became aware that the Bundist had been watching the transaction with in- terest. She turned to hint casual- ly. . . ' “Will I be seeing you tonight Mr. Belch?"

He shot her a sharp glance oi, inquiry. "How did you know my name?"

"Why, Poul must have men- tioned it-I certainly hoard it somewhere. Is it supposed to be a» secret?"

When she reached the refuse can, she was about to toss the! pack in when tho gleaming foil at the top oi it caught her eye. Surely it hcd been tampered with! Out of idle curiosity, she undid the paper and examined the contents

. The odor was refreshing. though rather heavily perfumed. And what tat cigarettes they

were!

Or was it Just that some were more loosely rolled than the rest? Her slim fingers extracted the largest and a little cascade o! loose tobacco fell to the street, ex- posing a thin roll oi paper inside. Deitly she removed it and spread the tissue-on the flat back o; her purse.

The message startled her: "Follow this out in exact de- tall:

"Tomorrow night at the Cafe tell Belch that you overheard two men talking. One was a seaman (describe him any way you like) and the other possibly a detective. The detective was saying that the police have absolute proof that a large quantity oi dope had been shipped out of Rio on the tenth. The seaman is to say that he se- cured a job stevedoring on-the Gonzales, which arrived a week ago in New Orleans.

"The following night you areto say,ihat you overheard the men

"We want to force them to take some definite action. Our men will be standing by. Use your head. but not too much imagination. Luck! So Lawrence had kept his sp- polntmcnt after all.

The next night she told them. In spite of his air o! stolil equanlmlty, a gleam o! intense satisfaction crept into Helen's cold eyes. He stared at Lotus reflec- tlvely, "This is Indeed most inter- esting, Miss Klrkman."

“Will it be of any help to you?" "That I cannot say, but it is interesting. And would you mind

‘Ihe October meeting of the New Haven Women's Institute was held at the home of Mrs. Blmon Ce- vsnagh on Oct. 1st.

Meeting opened by singing the "Institute Ode” and repeating the

confidence. It took her only a mo- ment to make up her mind...

"I can even tell you who the seaman was." she said confidently.

“You can!" In‘ his eagerness. he leaned forward, and his breath, heavy with cigarettes and brandy sickened her. I-ils lids were nar- rowed in anticipation, "Who?"

‘That man called Pete. The one you were asking me about the other night. Remember?"

“Soooo." His breath was sucked in so slowly that lt became an evil-sounded hiss. ‘

"That is real news, eh, Paul?" Belch said.

"Yeth. Rotha, you have done well tonight. He will be pleased."

She brought out a large com- pact and ostentatiously added to her makeup, "Who do you mean by He?"
