gaily and graciously,” it’s nobody’s fault but her own. Miss Hillis, Who has been making bbservations about extra women and studying their problems for several years, has worked out a series of “rules or technique for them, and has put all her findings together in a book to be published shortly under the title “Live Alone:and Like It.” “Extra women are a problem,” phe says, “even when theyre as #lluring as Peggy Joyce. They're & problem to their married friends who must provide extra men for dinner parties and bridge oppoents. And theyre a problem to ents, An too.”

Here are some of her maxims for Bnattached females: “The old-fashioned notion that tary women are objects of charkilled in the war. + “Be a Communist, a stamp colJector or a Ladies’ Aid worker if u must, but, for heaven's sake, Jo something. “Being Spartan becomes pointwhen there iS no one to watch e- performance. “It is the ‘lady who expects orphids who gets them..

TABLE—A felt mat is spread first on the table.. The damask cloth covering the entire table is more dignified and formal, and is used for formal dinners instead of doflies that are used for luncheons. The centerpiece should be low, as it is annoying to try to talk

around a high floral decoration. Four candlesticks are placed at

the four corners, about half way |

between the center and the edges of the table, or two candelabra are placed half way between the places of the host and hostess and the centerpiece. No matter how the dinner is served, the laying of the table always is the same, as far as the covers are concerned. By cover is meant the service ‘plates for each .individual, together with glasses, silvers ware and napkin.

Excess Makeup Defeats Purpose, Expert Declares

BY ALICIA HART Times Special Writer There really is such a thing as overdoing grooming, especially when one is very young. This doesn’t imply that indifferent makeup, tousled hair and unepolished nails are virtues. It simply means that the happy medium grooming, as in everything else, in the best goal to aim at. The girl with hair which shrieks the fact that she just visited the beauty shop, eyebrows plucked and penciled into the thinest of thin, unnatural-looking lines and hands that look as though they never touch anything except manicure tools, has defeated her purpose. Instead of improving her natural assets, meanwhile keeping within the bounds of good taste, she has let her grooming tricks hide her loveliness. No one stops to remark about the sparkle in her ‘eyes or the shining quality of her hair. Cosmetics and grooming details detract from these. . Don’t Be ‘Amusing’ You, shouldn’t lag so far behind the mode of the moment that you stamp. ;yourself' ‘as a -“has been.” But neither: should you keep so far ahead of .the crowd that all eyes turn your way in utter amazement, or, worse yet, amusement. It always is important to remember that freshness and a healthy are most pleasing. Have your hair waved, curled and
