WRITE your troubles to Jane Jordan, who will answer your liters in this column each day. Please send a stamp if you want a personal reply. T>ar Jane Jordan —X am IR. I have a nice home and nice clothes. I have as many eirl friends as anv eirl ‘n town and they are all real oals. The boys could not he more friendly, but they don’t ask me for the real dates that, all Rirls lovA Why do the bov3 admire mv nals so much and still not care so much about me?. One boy whom I admire and like very much told me with all sincerity that I was iioina to make some bov a real swethcart. but what did he do about it? Many of the boys and Rirls offer to Ret me dates, but I would much rather hr asked of the hoy’s own free will and accord. X am not critical and am known hv mv smile. Everybody like mv parents. What is wronß? EIGHTEEN. Dear Eighteen—lt is difficult to tell what makes the boys run after certain girls and neglect others, particularly when the neglected ones often arc far superior to their more popular sisters. I have seen a worthless little piece of fluff wind the boys ground her finger and take them away from far finer and more stable girls without, seeming to make the slightest effort.. I have seen a girl without a cent to her name or a rag to her back walk off with the catch of the tftwn before the poor little rich girl knew what had happened. The answer lies somewhere in the Indefinable realm of personality. What, is the universal appeal that certain movie actresses have? Pick out your favorite movie star and watch her closely. Study her gestures and expressions, particularly in the loves scenes and see if you can figure out what it is that she does that appeals to you and thousands of others. Feminity Is Striking For one. thing you will notice that she is intensely feminine. The clothes that she wears, her manner of dressing her hair, her very movements all emphasize her frail femininity and contrast it with the strength of her masculine admirers. So anxious have I been to get a definite explanation of the elusive charm of some personalities that I have started dozens of discussions among the males of the species on the subject of what is called “it.” 1 never yet have heard two men agree on a definition. Some women have "it” for a man because they are silent, mysterious, and reserved, and the man is intrigued immensely because he never can tell what they are thinking about. This same type of woman is anathema to other men who dismiss her with the scornful appellation of “Lady Vere de Vere.” They prefer a girl who is all enthusiasm, bubbles over with pep and is full of chatter. With such a wide variation in taste among men, almost any girl ought to find some man who admires her particular combination. Try a Little Audacity I do not know you well enough to tell exactly what it is you lack, If anything. Could it be that you are not quite audacious enough? When the young man remarked that you would make some boy a real sweet-

‘ Right’Jewelry Aids Dinner Dress Directed By AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, Dec. 4—Of course you aren’t one of those people who, passing the jewelry counter in their favorite store, say; "Oh, there’s a pretty necklace! I guess I'll buy that and give it to somebody Christmas.” Jewelry bought that way is often an unwelcome gift, because it doesn’t fit into any costume the recipient has. The successful way to choose jewelry is to know, not only to whom you’re giving it, but with what she’s going to wear it. If you don’t know this, but still want to give jewelry, dinner jewelry is as safe as anything this year. Many daytime dresses are designed to look smarter minus jewelry. But jewelry can be worn with most dinner costumes. Know Your Colors Either the bodice is plain so necklaces can be well displayed, or draped in such a way that a pair of clips can be used to hold the drapery flat. Or the dress has short i sleeves so bracelets are an addi- j tion. Necklaces or bracelets of antique j gold, of pearls with rhinestone clasps, j of crystals—alone, or combined with 1 gold or marcasite —of colored stones, i these are the ones you want to choose to wear with dinner dresses. Be careful about the colored stone jewelry, though, unless you know the color of the dress it's going to be worn with. Fiat Collar Flat collar-like necklaces are the newest type. They fit quite close about the throat and lie flat. Ensembled sets of pearl necklace and bracelet, or these two with a matching handbag, make a lovely , Christmas gift. Clips that sparkle or clips set with colored stones are

heart, why didn’t you encourage him with a sidelong glance! and say to him: '“Well, what are you going to do about it?” instead of writing that, rather cute line to me? Watch the other girls in your group and see what it is they do that intrigue the boys. Do they put a. small hand on a masculine sleeve with an admiring look that says, “How marvelous you are!” Do not scorn these little tricks of the feminine trade, Miss Eighteen. Lgrant you they are time-worn and threadbare and quite beneath your dignity. The point is they still w'ork, after centuries and centuries of overwork: Flattery, used in moderation at first, but increasing in strength as each dose takes effect, is excellent. I do not, advise you to be insincere, as that is usually felt at once, but never neglect to tell the boys all the nice things you think or hear about them. Ask Small Favors Do not hesitate t,o ask small favors of the boys. “You can help me if you will ... or “won't you explain this to me?” If you ask them prettily, they like you for it. You are fortunate in your choice of girl friends. Do not be proud or shy about, letting other boys or girls make all the dates for you that they will. Only in this way will you meet the boy some day who will see something in you that the 'thers have overlooked. After all, vou are only 18!
