Being a Pal to Children Parent Duty BY MARTHA LEE If there were one rule that would be applicable to all parents in the treatment of their children it would be for father and mothers to be pals to their sons r.nd daughters. Respect of children for their parents suffers not one iota by mother and father being friendly with them. Too many parents feel it necessary to keep their children in awe of them. That's all right when the youngsters are too young to have secrets from their mothers and fathers, but once they have grown up and are meeting the problems and temptations of life, many a time both parents will yearn for a heart to heart talk with the children. And they won’t get it. The way to find out what your children are doing and who their friends are is to have the “crowd” In at the house. Prejudice against the younger generation never will do, if you parents want to offer your children all the protection and guidance you can. Straight Thinking Your boys and girls are going with the children of their age whether you oldsters approve or not. They are not a bad lot, any way. That’s all false propaganda. They are a straight-thinking, straight-talking, fairly sensible bunch of kids. They are not like you were when you were young, any more than you were like your mothers and fathers in their youth. Your children have different amusements. Their entertainment, for the most part, takes them outside the home circle. But that does not mean a thing. If you want to give your growing boys end girls a real helping hand, don't restrain them from going with youngsters their own age. Instead, have the youngsters in, give them the once over, and weed out the undesirables. Dear Miss Lee—l am 21 years old and In my opinion old enough to take care of myself, but my parents seem to disagree. I think the world of them and they have been wonderful to me but for one thing. They are strict to the point of narrow mindedness. They do not forbid me to have dates, but when I do have one, X get such a sermon about it I don’t venture out very often. I want my parents to meet my friends, but they refuse to come in the room when I have company. When they do. it is to say a cold “How do you do.” and leave with a look that would freeze a fireman. If 1 go to a party or dance It is always the same argument. They insist I be in at 11. I do not believe in late hours, but 1 don’t think 12:30 is bad for a dance. The dances usually close at midnight, and by the time the crowd gets something to eat it’s about 12:30 when I get home. But I don’t try another dance for som time after, because the lecture is enough to spoil the good time I had at the dance. I am not allowed to sit in front of the house even for a few minutes, and I never can ask a boy in when I get home. What fellow wants to take a girl out that gets treated in this way? I lost the friendship of a wonderful fellow about five months ago because no amount of explaining on mv part could change his opinion that mv parents objected to him. I resent this, as much as I think of them. They will not give me a chance to prove that I am careful with whom X associate. SALLY. That is a hard problem for an attractive girl to cope with, Sally. You’ll just have to educate your parents to the ways of 1930 model doings. You have been pretty patient, and I do think it’s very intelligent of you to understand that thy are doing what they think best. Had Taffy Pulls They still are harboring the hope that one of their friends’ sons will ask to “court” you I suppose. That’s the way things were done in their day. And of course boys and girls did not go out the way you youngsters do. They had taffy pulls and all sorts of home parties. They apparently are afraid that some harm will befall you, that your friends are too "different” from them to be interested in them. Get your mother to help you plan an old fashioned party. One like they had when she was a girl. Have her arrange the program of entertainment. It sounds flat but you and your friends will have a circus. And it will allow both your mother and father to see you youngsters as you really are. And I’ll bet anything you will not have so much trouble after that having your dates and entertaining your friends at your own home.
CHAINS Someone has aptly said that the chains of habit are too small to be felt until they are too large to be broken. That is true of all habits—the good as well as the bad. Are you chained by habit to the old housekeeping methods—-the broom, the washtub, 0. Two of the most precious things in life are Time and Health—yet how many people throw away one and trifle with the It is throwing away time to do housework in the old way when for a few cents a day—the cost of your electric service—the heavy part, the dirty part, of your work can be done for you by electrical appliances. , Break the chain of your household bad habits!

PARIS, May 27. GLOVES have become awfully important all of a sudden, and a lot of hard-earned money is going to go their way, if it hasn’t already “Chair,’ which means a flesh, out not a pinkish flesh color, and oddly enough means in French also “expensive,” although spelled differently, is smarter than white for three-quarter or long evening gloves, even to wear with white and black. One’s glove box simply must show a pair of these or white, if you prefer; a pair of long black suede, three-quarter length chocalate-y brown if it fits in with the rest of your wardrobe, of course, and white pique or shantung gloves, very wide and loose and very musketeer in effect, for summer dresses. It costs money to be a lovely lady! n u 1 QUOTE what seems to me a pertinent paragraph: “The line has been relieved of the exaggeration which always follows experiments and attempts at something new, and now seems to have settled down satisfactorily into harmonious proportions quite attractive to the eye.” * AND there are a couple of cunning children's hats and dresses, in white pique, which is almost, I believe, the most fashionable material for children’s things. n # You’ve never lived—and ready HAD a bath till you’ve had a “peignoir” to dry yourself with after it. It’s a bath towel bathrobe with long sleeves, and it covers you all over and keeps you warm while it dries you. And what’s more, you can make one yourself with the Dah-ray directions in this week’s illustrated leaflet. You buy the toweling by the yard—but first you have to send your 2-cent stamp to the department of The Times for the leaflet Don’t delay! U U tt CHERUIT loveliness again!

<Zho MATCH TEST ImcrvU^ THAT REFRIGERATQR AIK IS NOT TOO MOIST If you have a good, wellinsulated ice refrigerator, make this test: Put an open box of matches on one of the lower shelves of your refrigerator, and leave it there a week or ten days. At the end of that time you will find that the matches strike perfectly ... This experiment PROVES that the air in an ICE refrigerator is not too moist for good food preservation. Moist enough to keep foods in good condition dry enough not to spoil the most sensitive foods. JcE RESEARCH BUREAU 1 Jodfanapotis ' _ \\ $ V "
