Ugly yellow vanishes TEETH WHITEN Iff.

If you think yellow, stained, unsight-ly-looking teeth are natural, start using Kolynos—a half-inch of this amazing dental cream on a dry brush twice daily. In 3 days you’ll see your mistake. Your teeth will look 3 shades whiter! Kolynos—unlike any preparation you’ve ever used—contains two important ingredients that clean and whiten teeth remarkably. One—the finest cleansing agent known—erases stain and tartar, foams into every gjny fissure and washes away decaycausing debris. While the other ingre-

Pajamas Striking for Beach Wear

BY JOAN SAVOY SEA Service Writer ANY day will be a holiday if you go down to the beach in the newest, gayest pajamas. There is something colorful and sparkling about them that makes you relax at the same time that you take a new interest in the passing show by the water’s edge. For chic combined with comfort, there is a pair of bright-red knitted pajamas which are cut and fitted around the top like a bathing suit. The red gives way to blue knitted wool in the middle of the bust, and the cooler color runs up and over the shoulder. The legs are loose and comfortable, and perfect relaxation is possible. The girl who is lounging in the beach chair is wearing this costume. Two-piece striped jerseys, worn by the girl who is standing, add a lively note to any fashion group. The stripes are red, yellow, black and white. A large bow is sewed in place right in the center of the front, at the waistline and the belt hooks under it. Small patch pockets decorate the breasts. A great, drooping sun hat will protect your eyes when the sands are too yellow and the water is too blue. When a boat comes sailing by, all you have to do is raise your hat and the slant of the brim will let your eyes see and be seen.

M ANNLRI‘“MORALS ’ Tv By Jan£ Jordan yv\

BRING your emotional problems to Jane Jordan, who will answer your letters in this coumn just as soon as she has time to study your needs. Dear Jane Jordan—A young man whom X have known over a period of years has asked me to marry him. and X have refused, because we are of different religions. If I change over to his church I am sure that mv parents never would feel the same toward me. They have been verv kind and given me a liberal education, with advantages that other girls have not had. This would be a poor wav to repay them for their years of denial sot me. If mv friend should enter our church. X do not believe he would be as happy as before. He is more staunch in his belief than I am in mine. I should not want to be the one to change him from his church, which he has followed faithfully since he was a little boy! I am positive that I love him and would not be satisfied to go through life without him: He has every duality that a woman would want in a husband. Character, intelligence, and a good disposition. Although he is worthy of this sacrifice on mv part, do you think that eventually mv parents would see how it stands, forgive me, and regard me as before? MARIANNA. Dear Marianna—lt is sheer stupidity to permit religious beliefs to prevent a happy marriage between people who love each other and are fitted temperamentally to live together. Would you and your parents penalize a strong, righteous man because he happened to be brought up in a church which differs from your own? Is this religion? Only a narrow, prejudiced character can not countenance opinons which do not echo its own doctrines, creeds and formulas have little to do with the deeper side of religious feeling. Ritual and dogma are not the sole purpose of the existence of the church. Virtue and goodness do not proceed from ready-made concepts. The worthy life in search of the highest attainable good is not in need of the rigid orthodoxy of the past. It can function in almost any church. No matter what your parents have done for you, it does not follow that they have any jurisdiction over the major decisions of your adult life. In going over to your husband’s church, you are not violating any deep convictions of your own, but merely disturbing the religious prejudices of your parents. This is not a valid reason for giving up that which makes the happiness of your life. Your parents have lived their lives as they saw fit. You have the same privilege. * u tt Dear Jane Jordan—l am a boy of 31 and love a girl very much. My folks had to move out of town and I had to leave her. I get back to see her every two weeks, as It seems I can not do without her. She is 18 years of age and Is planning to attend college. I am so much in love with her that I don't know what to do. . - X buy her lovely presents and take her mafiv places, as she tells me that she really loves me. I would like to know If I am wasting time and money by going to see her, as she is going away to school this fall. I love this girl and wonder if you can tell me of any way to make sure that my love for her is strong enough to marry her. Y. K. Dear _Y. K.—The best thing you can do is' to let the young lady finish her college course. Time is the best test of the strength of your emotion. Often the taste in girls that a boy has at 21 is altered very materially by the time he is 25,

The delight of 21 may be a bore four years later. You need the next four years to establish your economic independence. See her as often as you can. If you do not grow apart in this period, it is a good sign that your affection is stable. No one on earth can tell a young man whether he is wasting his time* on a young lady. If she is responsive, I should say it is a good bet, even though no one, not even the girl herself, can guarantee that she will stay that way. It always is a waste of time for a man to make love to a woman who will not be persuaded, although it’s a practice much indulged in. tt tt n Dear Jane Jordan—l am a girl 18 years old and deeply in love with a man about 25 years of age. When I am around him, he acts as if he cares for me, but I have a feeling it is put on. He has been married and divorced. He thinks I can come to where he is employed when I want to see him. but he never comes around my home, because of family quarreling. Do you think lam foolish to go wild about him? Do you think he loves me? LOVEABLE Dear Loveable—A man sincerely in love with a girl would find some way to see her, regardless of family conditions, and not expect her to hang around his place of business.
