a woman, cerned, men proceed on the premise that it is fun to be fooled but no fun to know. Of all the artifices which women have adopted, the one which has caused the most outrage in masculine circles is red fingernails. one accord every man I ever have known in any walk of life has expressed not mild disapproval but strong disgust at red fingernails. Famous salons, manufacturers of cosmetics, magazines and beauty consultants have tried for years to educate women in metics. Always the emphasis placed on the natural. Less rouge is advocated even where frankly red lips are sponsored. But many women learn nothing from their instruections. They still think that if a little is good, more is better. Exaggerated makeup is incongruous, and just as mistaken as the notion harbored by savage tribes that scars on the face are attractive, or that yellow cheeks are as pretty as red. JANE JORDAN,

Child Needs Individual

Study, Tip

Blanket - Rule Training Won't Work Out, Expert Says

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

In spite of all advice in child training, the best thing for any mother to do is to get a general pice ture of her boy or girl and .reat them accordingly There are children who do better if left to their own devices, as they are born with a certain instinctive wisdom, Their sense of fairness and anxiety to please will carry them through. The timid child will timid. He needs, of course, his courage increased, and (not be unduly alarmed, but | for what little encouragement he can get from those around him, he will remain unagressive and shy. Thus it goes on We cannot make children over. It is possible in very early years to do something about their general molding, and ‘‘condition” them to what is called

normalcy, but pattern, wherever it comes from, sticks to the bitter end,

When a youth or wire in their teens, extreme of crime, necessarily mean that this is their true pattern. On the way they have just taken a bypath that has led to trouble. If facts were known, it is possible that there is more real “worth” in many a so-called crim=inal than in numerous citizens whe have never been tembted along lines outside the law. I have never seen a human be= ing change his character. The child is father to the man, every time. And the baby is the making of the child. We bend the twigs of character, and shape the true, but the pith of the wood, the na= | ture of the bark and the suscepti- | bility to drought or immunity from weather are still there.

Study Each Separately

I suggest that each mother study out her children seriously, and then take such measures with each one as she thinks best. Her job is to make each child still better than he is. She cannot make a blanket rule for conduct that will fit the whole family, and expect a miracle. Some children need more toughening, while others cannot stand the rigorous test. These can be reached by a sympathetic ap=- | proach. Some need the firm hand | of discipline, because it is their language and they respect the power that is stronger than their own, Others will recede rather than advance under too strict pres=
