Why women bear with them goodness only knows. Applications of cold cream or mineral oil are a definite contribu- tion to foot health, comfort and beauty. After the bath, give .the pedals a two-minute friction. Then dust with a foot powdef. Put some of the powder inside the shoes.

The story concerns the wall between the cattle men and the homesteaders back in tlfe days when a wire fence created as much consternation as the iron curtain, Cooper, in his own unsophik- 'ticated and entirely pleasing way, shows both factions where they are wrong and manages to breathe sweetness and light across about 10,000 acres of Texas graz- ing land.

Probably the greatest contribu- tion Boston has made to history, aside from filling their harbor with poorly made tea and a certain con- nection with Paul Revere, is a background that could make poss- ible a picture as "The Late George Apley." The book, by J. P. Marquand, has been translated into lights and shadows to create one of the most succulent bits of movie fare to hit the screen in many months. The story concerns a Boston fam- ily in the early 1900's living in the lavender and old lace aura left ov- er from the "nineties." Ronald Coleman as George Apley is the self-appointed custodian of a code that sees perfection in snobbish ness and who is tied tightly .to a pseudo tradition lampooned by the His children eventually punch holes into most of his credos and release poor George from his bondage to breeding, culchaw and his stuffed shirt.

By picking powerful opposites in dress colors, you can play down the undesirable tone in your hair. Navy blue and dark blue-greens are usually good.

Would it be proper 't Dear Mrs, Beéckman: Will you kindly answer these two questions, and so settle an 'argument between my buddy and myself? . fae "1. You are on a date 'with your gir] ahd it is necessary to take a bus. When you board the bus you and the girl are able to sit to- gether. After a few blocks the bus becomes: crowded, and an eld- erly lady gets on. Isn't it still the fellow's duty to get up and offer his seat to the woman, regardless of the fact that he is sitting with his date? . 1 contend that it is, but my buddy insists that because you are with your girl, you are not expected to give up your seat. * 2. Assuming that the answer to the first question is "yes," what | {s done under these circumstan- ces? You have stood up and given the woman your seat. Presently a passeng®r who has been sitting at the rear of the bus debarks, and now there is a vitant seat. (1) &ontinue self, (3) should he wait until his date tells him it is all right.for him to be seated, or (4) if she doesn't suggest he take the seat, should he ask her if it's all right it he does? (I hope I haven't made this one sound too eomplicated)) 1. You win . . if the fellow has a proper feeling: of gallantry or service, he rises immediately and offers his seat to a woman. The fact that he is with a girl makes no difference , . . except it's an excellent opportunity for him to show the girl that he is a gentleman, A girl with a prop- er sense of courtesy, even decency, is (no matter what the fellow thinks, or doesn't think, about it) ashamed to be with a man who does not rise to*give his seat to an elderly woman, 2. Usually a man prefers to stand near the girl, go that they may continue their conversation. Buts it he is tired and if the trip is to be a long or 'even fairly long one, it is entirely proper for him to say, "If you don't mind, I think I'll take that seat back there , . . we'll probably be able to get two seats together very shortly." Though Far Away They Should 'Be Invited To Wedding Dear Mrs. Beeckman: . Two girls, both dear friends of mine, were married in the past year, I attended both wedding «| and receptions, and my fiance at- tended one, Now I am to be mar- ried, and since both these friends are living at quite a distance from | here, it will be impossible for ei- ther of them to attend my wed- | send t invitations to the ding? (We are not ordering announce ments) Or should I just skip eve erything? _ LSB. By all means send these twp friends ~invitations' to your wed- ding--if you "skip everything" they will have no way of knowing that you thought of them, wan. ted to include them. Even- tho they live at.a great distance you, naturally you and the bride. groom would want them to know that you would like to have them with you on the wedding day. Sending Formal Invitatiom Shows Sufficient Respect Dear Mrs. Beckman.: i ill you please settle a probe lem which has arisen in my 'fam- ily? For the past year my broth- er has been "going steady" with a girl from another city, Neither my family nor myself have had the opportunity of meeting the girl or her family. In the near fu- ture this girl's sister ia to be- married, and her family sent us a formal invitation to the wed- ding. Now. our question fs: Is this formal invitation" respectful enough for us to accépt, or since. ' we haven't ever met this faniily should they have sént us a per- sonal letter also? We want very . much to do the right hing, This girl's family made a grae- fous bow to your family by sénd- ing them an invitation to the wedding . , , the formal invitation was quite sufficient to show their courtesy, and a personal letter was not necessary. Since the girl's family kindly took your family "on faith," your family should return this kindly spirit, and should, if convenient, accept this gracious invitation, te Not A Necessary Invitation From Bride.To-Be * Dear Mrs. Beeckman: At my brother's weddin, to take place in two months I am to be maid of honor, I was very much surprised yesterday when the bride-to-be told me that she had already bought 'her gown. Shouldn't she have asked me to go with her to help her in choo- sing her wedding gown? / No, there was, no reason. why she should have asked you te go with her when she chose her wedding dress. She may. be the kind of person who prefers to shop alone, or perhaps with only her mother as "dress adviser." (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to. answer questions on What Shoul¢y I Do? submitted by readers). Lace Lengthens Your Short Slips » Short slips which must fegoni> nah Sag "as. 3 he ace a e sy The heavier and more 'closely patterned, the less transpar- ent your hemline of lace be, The slip which must be worn with a sheer dress may be lengthened at the top by lengthening shoulder straps. Slips lowered at the top, however, present a problem of bra exposure unless you wear lower-cut wire bras. These will also elimin- ate a second set of straps which can look unlovely through sheer dress tops. When laundering new, longer slips, wash carefully to avoid shrinkage. The slip that emerges from the wash tub two inches shorter usually suffers that loss be- cause the water was too Hot. To ayert that fate wash a slip in luke- warm water. . The trick of pulling a slip, its full vertical length when ironing, will also help to keep original length intact The tall girl who has trouble buying slips long enough will be wise to take a larger sige and sac- rifice clinging fit for length. Apply Lacquer With Finesse Do you know the fine art of ap- plying lacquer to your hair? Finesse in the use of this hair- fixer will pay off in a neater-look- ing head and a more lasting . set, says Bernard ag Guro, New York stylist, Here are his tricks: Before you grab that lacquer sprayer, cover your clothes. Lacquer spots, Mr. Guro warns, Spray lacquer on in a light mist. To control the mistiness of the ap- plication, hold the bottle near enough to your head to make easy contact with the spray. To make a hair-do last longer, spray lacquer along the lines of each wave and on curls separately. Cover up sprayed hair with your hand or a cloth as protection against repeats on any area that has been lacquer- ed. "If you intend t6 be faithful to one hair-do until it's set again, lacquer it for permanence. But if you intend to ring in changes, put your lacquer away. The style-switch is hard to make and tough control after this fixer is used on hair, To insure even wearing of cur- tains, frequently alternate those that hang at shady windows with those in sunny openings.
