Parents Who Can Recall Buggy Riding Days Best Friends of Modern Youth BY MARTHA LEE Hypocritical old women who don’t remember when I they were young and went buggy riding with the neighbor boy and came home after dark with the reins tied around the whip socket are the bane of a modern girl's existence. Likewise, the old men who forgot when they were boys and went courting the town belle and took a, box of candy and

acted silly, are a thorn in the flesh of the *young man of today. If mothers and fathers only would recall those halcyon days of youth, there would be a lot less bickering and trouble. I am at fault as much as the rest when it comes to the question of liberties for the younger generation. But I always think back to the days of the generation past and remember that girls who wore long skirts and puff sleeves, and boys who were addicts of the high collar and peg top trouser were just the same as the youngsters of today. Here is a typical letter from one girl who is a “1928 model.” Dear Martha Lee: You advised me some time ago not to run away from home, and X didn't, and X am glad. I will be 17 years old next Wednesday, and I now am living with and working for a private family. I like it very much, but. Miss Lee, here is my trouble. The people ], live with will not allow me to have boys come to the house to see me, and I don’t like that. # I get off work on Thursday and Sunday and go to a public dance hall without tho knowledge of my employers. If they found it out, they would Are me. One night I met a young man at one of these dance halls and he asked to take me homo. I was afraid the people X live with would find it out. I like this boy, but he refuses to speak to me unless I ouit my job so we can have dates at home. I like my Job and the boy, too. Should I quit my job and go with the boy, or stick to my job and let the boy go? Thanking you verv much, I am, UNHAPPY BLUE EYES. In the first place, my dear little girl, keep right on working with the same family and let the boy alone. Next you should explain to the family that you are old enough to have dates twice a week but that you would like them to approve of the boys you meet. I’m sure your employers, unless they are fanatics, will approve of the plan. If they refuse to let you have dates about twice a week, you should work some other place. It’s far better to have a boy see you in your own home than to meet him at a public dance hall without proper introduction. Blue Eyes, be sure to let me know the action the family takes. My dear Caroline, the young man to whom you refer evidently is very sensible in spite of the fact that he has been a failure in marriage. He is right. You should complete your education. Graduate from high school and go to a university if you can. If you go with this man for two years, and if you really love him, then I say march right up to the altar without fear.

BEAUTY HOW and WHY tt tt tt DON’T STRONG-ARM THE HANG NAIL

By ANN ALYSIS For the fashioning of the useful little manicure instrument known as the orangewood stick, the soft yielding wood of the orange tree has been selected as being the best suited for the purpose. We employ this stick with its cleverly shaped end, to free our finger nails from the objectionable skin which insists upon clinging too closely for beauty to the bases and edges. Hang nails, we call this skin which destroys the beautiful shape of the nails. The fact that such a soft pliable instrument as the orangewood stick has been chosen by the manicure operators to gently push back the disfiguring hang nail, should be a broad hint to us to use persuasive rather than harsh measures in correcting this defect. Do not thicken and coarsen the bordering skin by cutting with a knife or scissors. Methods of this sort give the finger tips an unrefined and unbeautiful finish. Even the soft orangewood may sometimes produce an irritation or inflammation at the base of the nails. Should this happen, apply a little soothing oil, or cream, carefully wiping off the excess with a soft piece of cloth or absorbent cotton.
