WHA T’S IN FASHION?

Fashion Diet Makes You Slim Directed by AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, April 12.—“ Hello, Mary, how smart you look! You’ve got thinner since I saw you last.’ Isn't that greeting the thrill of the large woman's lifetime! Even if she does know it's not true . . . but only her new costume that makes her look that wav. It’s easier, too, to take a fashion diet than a culinary one. True, the fashion diet does involve giving up things, but offers in their place other things you’ll like just as well. When, for instance, you give up all the horizontally placed lines and trimmings that are smart, but that seem to add inches to your width, you take instead the vertical, up-and-down ones that are just as smart and that make width seem to melt away. If you hate to give up capelets and deep yokes—and that’s what fashion's diet demands—be consoled that the fashionable longhanging scarf necklines and lingerie trimmed surplice closings (as on the dress illustrated) are going to look far better. It may seem hard to say no to bright colors, especially just when gay costumes are so smart. But remember that black and navy are smart, too, especially when trimmed with small bits of gay color or white. And that dark colors are thinning. Big prints add inches round the figure. But fine diagonal line prints are newer and they seem to take the ounces off. If you’d like actual sketches of some excellent coat and dress types for larger women, send in the coupon below.

district. Should mv parents keep us apart for this reason? Since reasoning with them has proved utterly useless, would I be justified in dating her without their knowledge? 1. M. PERPLEXED. • Dear I. M. Perplexed—Every individual has a right to do what he wants to do as long as he is able to take full responsibility for his own acts. If you are not in any way dependent upon your parents for board, schooling or clothing,' then you have a perfect right to defy them in this matter, but do it openly, not secretly. If you are not independent, the only ethical thing you can do is to bow to their wishes until you earn the freedom to make your own deciSense of sions. ■•r i T Your parents ’ alues Js are mistaken j n All Wrong estimating a girl ** by the district in which she lives. Every girl has a right to be judged for herself alone, not for her family, her financial standing, or the place where she is obliged to hang her hat. Many a flower grows in a dump heap. Is it any the less fair and sweet because of its ugly surroundings? Only a wrong syise of values could cause your parents to forbid you the companionship of a good girl because of her material setting. It shows that they place their faith in the things that money can buy, whereas the most valuable things in ife, such as loyalty, courage, love, tenderness or truth, can not be purchased with money. I beg you to forgive them, for their unreason is born of ambition for you, their son, for whom they have doubtless made countless sacrifices. They know that you will be judged by your associates and they fear that the girl’s bad surroundings will reflect upon your prestige. Their pride in you and love for you is responsible for this move, rather than any wish to be unkind to the girl. Be merciful. Not until you are a parent yourself will you realize the terrific re- Don’t Let sponsibility that „ ~ p a renthood in- Lmotions volves. It is so p.-i. v .. easy to make mis- Ku,e * ou takes and so hard to be wise! Watch that their opposition does not cause you to overestimate your emotion for the girl. We always are attracted to the thing which is hardest to obtain. If your parents aren’t careful, they will turn the girl into the most desirable thing on earth by making a martyr of her and fanning your youthful chivalry from a modest flame into a hot conflagration which sweeps everything before it. Continue to reason with them, but do not be swayed by anger. Appeal to their natural kindliness and persuade them to give the girl -a hand up instead of embittering her young life by an exhibition of class cruelty. * # * Dear Jane Jordan—l am a girl 17 years old and I like some nleasure in life. My father and mv mother are separated and I live with mv grandmother and mv father. When mv father is home, he lets me go places. When he is gone mv grandma won’t let me eo any place or have company of anv kind. She has old ideas. I have tried to get mv parents to go back together, but I’m afraid it's too late. My father is working steady and I go to high school. If he would rent a little house, mv two sisters and I could keep it. up. but he can’t see it that way. Please tell me what you would do? A STAY-AT-HOME-GIRL. Dear Stay-at-Home Girl—l would wait as patiently as possible until I grew up. In the meantime, I would equip myself in every possible way to earn a living. I would decide on what kind of work I could do best and start right now to learn all I could about it and make myself proficient. Then, when I got on an earning basis, I would join my sisters, if they were so inclined, in a bachelor girls’ apartment. In the meantime, don’t use up any more energy than you can help in fretting. If you can’t have company, read good books, and enjoy your playmates while at school.
