WHIRLAWAY SKIRT

NEW YORK _ For sportswear and a white Christmas, there is a whirlaway skirt in white wool with rnulti-colored stripes. Wear this with a bright-colored sweater. Maybe you can put a sweater on your Christmas list. For an unus- ual sweater, there is a white tur- tle-neck one, long sleeves, full at the wrist and cable-stitch details Iiown the front.

A ___________ REMARKS OFTEN GIVE HEB. AWAY

If you don't want people in say, "Sine certainly runs that family,” don't do any of these things:

Use the word “my” instead of "our", when you are talking about ihe children, the house or any of lhe furnishings.

Accept an invitation for your husband without consulting him Iirst. '

Volunteer his services. Or say barelessly, "I'll have Jlrn do so- and-so," instead of, "I'ii ask Jim If he will do so-and-so."

Say, "I have decided," when talking about some decision that roncerns both you and your hus- band. ‘

Always be the one who decides when it is time for you and your husband to leave a party.

Keep your husband Jumping to wait on you.

Point out your husband's duties as a host in front of the guests.

Make it clear to everyone that Eu handle the finances in your

miiy.

Object when he corrects the nhildren.

Tell everyone how good you:

husband is about helping you n- round the house.

Criticize his clothes, his haircut, [his grammar or his manners in Iron; of other people.

Say how Jim wanted to do l0- and-so but you insisted on doing luch-and-such and it was a good thing you did, too.

THAT NEW LOOK LEADS TO SPRING

NEW YORK _ Resort fashions fill the eyo with visions of laughter and fun and go more than half way toward fulfilling these pleas- ant expectations. Even the canny stay-at-home can profit by care- fully evaluating their fashion points, for resort clothes embody the high lights which lead everv wardrobe straight into spring.

Among outstanding New York resort collections is that of Maria Krum. With her concise approach to fashion and her deft evaluation of the present mode, she decrees that every woman can have her own way about style. Her resort collection holds many quiet an- swers to the demand of women who know the value of weighing a, new s-tyle before rushing in and decid- ing too hastily the question, “Is it for me "

--i_______. LEARN TO APPLY THAT IOSY BLOOM

Many rouge users seem to have difficulty BDPiyiHg the tricky paint.

Used with a heavy hand, rouge can blaze a fiery trail across the cheeks that will age and harden g face. Applied with a restrained touch, rouge xvill pep up 5 med appearance and add a youthfully rosy bloom to s. sallow complexion.

Whether- to use dry or cream rouge is a matter of individual pre- femllce- Dry rouse is easier for unskilled ringers to apply -but so experts claim it does not last as long as cream rouge. If you are unsure of your skill. try dry rouge first. Here's the way to pat it on so that it defies detection. Use a clean cotton puff, stroke it lightly over the cake. Then blow out the excess pigment. Apply rouge in a strong light to avoid an overdose of colour. Simiid as you touch your Duff lightly to your cheeks and gently smooth the colour along the curve of the cheekbones. Powder Iishtly over you: trail to subdue any harshness.

Chose soft muted shades. These can be pinkish, tawny or clear reds to blend with skin tones. A too bright shade is apt to look harsn and will advertise your artifice.

In a recent style showing here on spring dresses. all the elements of the newest silhouette were e- fained in sheer prints and casuals, but whether it was a portrait neck- line or a domblebreasted effect, it was evident that throats ar bound to be ogled in the “new look."

He was then warn- ed: (a) Not to eat a heavy meal, to eat small meals if he felt the need of them, (b) to rest for a few min- utes after each meal, and (c) m have a short rest at 11 a. m. and 4 p. m. every day.

lle had no heart disturbance of any kind for over a year when, having to discharge one of his key vmen and also to build a large addi- tion to one of his plants, he began to have "extra" heart beats, a sort of “skipping" of the heart beats, which sent him hurrying ' to his family physician. The extra beats and skipping were present, but he was not breathing hard when his physician examined h'm.

He was then instructed to ‘walk briskly around the physician's office for a couple of minutes, and found that his heart was beating regu- larly-no extra beats, no skipping. The physician assured_ hiim that as the exercise had caused the skip- ping and extra beats to disappear he need not worry about these symptoms. However, for his peace of mind tfhe physician sent him to the heart specialist who had attended him with his coronary attack and the report was favorable. ‘Iihere was lno change from the previous X-ray lfluoroscope) and electrocardio- Rraph reading. no enlargument of the liver or ollher heart symotmi. The lesson here is that this pat- ieni, by consulting his physician at once, wvas made free of worry and able to continue his work. Unfortunately, some mild syimn- tovms may mean more serious con- ditions which may lead to coron- ary thrombosis (heart stroke) or apoplexy (brain strokel. ‘Iihus Dr. Paul D. Wl-iite.

WHY WORRY ABOUT YOUR HEART

Mother knows nothing about our love affair. nos; is begging me to leave home with him and he says we will then get married. What must I do when it comes to making a choice between him and my own mother whom I love very much and would not hurt for anything in the world if I could

help it? DESPERATE DAUGHTER

ANSWER: Your situation is indeed a desper- ale one, but it is one in which you must act prompt- ly if you are to save yourself from a lifetime of bit- ter regret. You must go at once to,your mother and tell her exactly what has happened. Of course, it will be a terrible shock to her to find out that her husband has betrayed her and is trying to seduce her little daughter.

naannnsaxmo run-van

But it will not be so heartbreaking to her as it will be if you let your unprincipled stepfather persuade you into eloping with him and becoming his mistress. It would not be possible for him to marry you because you are under age, and if he deserted you. as he would be practically sure to do. you would become that most forlorn of all creat- ures-an unwed child.wife who has no home, no protection, no way of ever righting the wrong she has done not only to her mother, but to herself.

You are just 15, only a child. You think you are in love with this man because he is your first sweetheart, the first man who has ever stirred your emotions, but, in reality. you are only in love with love and are incapable of the kind of love that lasts.

Try to see this man. who is so selfishly and brutally planning to ruin your whole life for the sake of a little adventure, as he is, and it will cure you of your romantic dream. A man who would take advant- tage of his little stepdaughter is the lowest and most contemptible creature in the world.

DEAR DIX: I un an 18-year-old girl and have been engaged to a boy for six months. I have several problems. (i) My fiance's mother treats me like a stranger and I do so want her to love me. I-low can I win her over? (2) My fiance belongs to a different church than I do. I would like for him to join my church, but he doesn't like to go to church at all. I am afraid this will make a difference in our mar- ried life because I enjoy going to church.

(3) I-Ie keeps putting our wedding off because be says he has no money to get married on. He has a good car, but he doesnt save a cent. I have a good job and save my money. Does he really love me enough to marry me. or is it just a put off deal? (4) When I think about getting married it scares, me. I am more or less a career girl and hate to think of settling down forever in a kitchen.

My fiance and I love each other, but we are so different and dis- agree on so many things. I hate fights and I would try my best to get along, but would it last? ¢

WONDERJIIG SALLY.

ANSWER: Well, sally. it seems to me that if you are scared of marriage it is your good angel waming you that you are not really enough in love with the boy to whom you are engaged to enter into a life contract with, and you had better wait until Mr. Right comes along. When he does, you will go rejoicing to the altar and you won't bother about whether your mother-in-law loves you or not.

Another thing that should make you hesitate about marrying this lad is that you belong to different churches and that doesn't make for peace and harmony in a family. more no other one thing that pre. cipitates so much hard feeling and brig; about so many bitter quar- rels as for the wife to belong to one faith and her husband to an- And still another thing is that it costs money to support a family. Even brides have to eat.

Christmas Eve _ the moat belov- ed of all the year to young and older as well. FOI‘ w the youna It is full of pleasant anticipation: o! the morning which even lends be- witching dreams to their billowi- and to those of us who are older it returns memories that, if for our peace of mind, we would try to escape yet remain evergreen, and will I suspect while time lasts. "Do you rememiber?" I ask James, and scenes we had thought to be forgotten come back in a flash. peopled with many a one whom now we may meet nevermore in the flesh but "only in dreams." Very quiet this eve is for James and ml‘. and perhaps though neither one would admit it, a mite lonely. 1 first was aware of this when Karo- lyn called up about dusk to say. "I guess we'll not be able to come out tonight" as has been their cus- tom in other years. Sometimes to visit or again only to stop briefly but nevertheless to come. Nor could we expect anyone to turn out in this storm which followed in the wake of yesterdays lovely weather to bring a. white Christmas indeed. to Island folk.

C I I

Rob was here this afternoon, not by truck but with the team in a farm sleigh. It was storming then, in a wholly picturesque manner. l thought, and hoped that those \- broad with cars might not loiter, for the least wind could prove dis- astrous to their homing. Softly the snow fell from a quiet grey sky. wiping out paths about the fields and y-ards and making all fresh and new for Christmas. Moulding the rooves prettiiy, capping fence- posts and picket tops. I saw the lightness of the flakes become tangled in the house vines and white-edge the panes. The dark of the evergreens by the mill were sometimes in a dim outline as were the buildings a-top the hill. "I'm thinkin!" James came indoors‘ to supper, stamping the snow from his feet "there won't be too many cars on this road tomorrow." "But" 1 replied with an edge of hope for those who would home for to- morrow "it's not storming so much now is it?" And James shook his head in a hopeless gesture "just the same" he said.

And so many there are who home for Christmas. By plane, by ferry_ by car and methinks by the signs, by horse and sleigh. Drawn from afar and from nearer they come to for-gather in his delighful season with the home folk around the festal board. Eyes light up at the mention of it, and world over, be it ever so grand or humble "there's no place like home" on Christmas. I myself? As James says in a big gesture which I believe protests overmuch "it doesn't make so much difference to Ellen and me where we spend Christmas now that we are older." Though I believe even 1 shall be obliged to own to some disappointment and a little longing if tomorrow should pass without at least a call on "the old folks at home.’

Grand-daughter, too young yet to appreciate her importance in the house across the lane and here this nigilit, is in bed as is Jamie and his brother at Rob's. But not before Jamie's mother hau

set out a tasteful lunch on the‘

table for Santa's pleasure and "e- ireehment. In their eagerness for tomorrow's coming Jamie and other small fry would find today slow in passing. At Aiderlea, to us the hours were winged. Tho only regret I have on this day be- fore Christmasﬂs that there is not

nearly enough leisure, in which to _

loiter. So many duties one mus; attend to. But I found myself leaving those at the least excuse, to listen in to a favorite program, to rc-read a letter, to again ad- mire a card or road the message thereon-as kind as the season at hand and quite as heart-warming -to linger in the vicinity of the small tree, perhaps to pick up o parcel to wonder u to its contents -not for the value at all but so
