WOMAN'S PAGE. New Necklines BY MARY Ever since the low-cut evening bod- “ice first came to be worn there have been alarmists to tell us that never before have women worn their eve ning clothes so outrageously low. ‘Their idea seems to be that evening bodices are getting lower and lower, and they blush to think what we are ing to. © The fact really seems to be that BODICE, CUT LOW AT ONE SIDE OF BACK, IS HELD OVER RIGHT SHOULDER WITH WREATH OF RED FLOWERS. IT IS UT STRAIGHT AND HIGH AT THE FRONT. IN CENTER IS NOVEL NECKLINE, WITH A POINT IN FRONT WHICH 1S HELD UP| WITH LAME CORDS AND TAS SEL HANGING AT THE BACK. BELOW, A SEQUIN-TRIMMED, FROCK, WITH FLESH CHIFFON | OVER SHOULDERS. | since low necks are worn some women will get a certain satisfaction in wear- ing them just a bit lower than any one else. Recently it has been at the back rather than at the front that Mrs. Show Originality M:;SHALH front, though dressmakers have found many ways to display well favored backs. We are no longer limited to certain conventions in the matter of neck lines, as was the case when a neck might be described as a V., square, round or boat shaped. There are bodies that are cut on a diagonal line across the back—bodies that leave the shoulders quite bare but are held close- ly secured around the neck. Some. times one shoulder is conventionally finished while over the other there is & ehort wreath of artificial roses. An interesting neckline is formed by a point at the front, held up by a heavy gold cord that ends in two tas. sels that hang at the back, which is cut very low. Another neckline is achieved by means of flesh colored chiffon cut yoke like to hold a sequin covered trock in position. This is a charming arrangement. The chiffon is cut sometimes in a rounded, sometimes in a pointed yoke. My Neighbor Says: Rub nickel stove trimmings and the plated handles and hinges of doors with kerosene and whiting and polish with a dry cloth. If the wheels of the wringer run jerkily and the rubber rolls seem tough, try a few drops of kerosene on the former and wipe the rolls with an oily cloth. Some one may warningly say that the ofl eats the rubber, but one set of rolls which are used by a personal friend of the writer has been receiving this treatment for nearly 10 years and is still in service. It furniture casters are put away for some time they hecome so stiff that they are thrown ¢ as useless, while if they were only given a preliminary bath of kerosene they would be loosened and prepared for the ofl which would make them run smoothly. Rusted nuts and bolts likewise respond to the kerosene bath. In baking cake, the richer the cake the slower the heat should be. If you have too slow a heat the cake will rise, then fall, and the cake will bé heav: It too hot the outside bakes at the start and as the heat reaches the center the expansion of the mixture causes it to force its way through and then bursts the cake. To make rugs lie flat on the floor, buy a small rubber mat, cut it in halves diagonally and glue to opposite corners of the Grundy looks for cause for criticism, for bodices are rarely cut very low in LIFTED MASKS BY HAZEL DEYO BATCHELOR. “JESSICA, DEAR, HE T Mark Burton returns from abroad | Because of a letter received from Maude Maynard, the aunt of his ward, Jessica Bartlett. Jessica is about to inherit the principal of her father’s estate, and Maude is afraid a fortune- hunter named Raymond Townley {is preying on her affections. She asks Mark’s help in the wmatter. Mark tries to establish a friendly feeling between himself and Jessica. On the night that he arrives she is having a masquerade party, and he dances with Peggy Bartley, Jessica’s best friend. He decides to pump Pcggy, and asks her to have dinner with him. She divulges the fact that there was a lfl" of talk about Raymond Townley a few | years back when his wwife divoreed | him. Mark is irritated at being drawn into the thing, because he is thinking of ggtting married to a woman named Irene Martin.

OUGH FOR YOU at a dance one night and began to pay her some attention, she was thrilled beyond worgs. 8he had been furious with Aunt Maude, and had refused to speak to her for two days when that admirable woman had tried to caution her. “Jessica, dear, he {an't good enough for you. He'll'maké you miserable, All he wante i8 to get his fingers on your money. He'll spend every cent in a few vears, and then probably leave you, as he did his first wife.” And Jessica had stormed and raged. “I think it's disgusting for you to talk lfke that. All people in small towns have fiithy minds. They like to goseip. How dare vou talk about Ray like that? I won't listen, and if you keep this kind of thing up I'll run off with him. You just see if 1 don't!"” Aunt Maude had kept silent after that and had quietly sent for Mark. He would help her with Jessica. He would set his fogt down and forbid her to do this thing. or perhaps find some more tactful way of bringing her to her sense: Aunt Maude had unlimited faith in the ability of men 1o get what they wanted. But since Mark's arrival she could not help feeling that instead of taking the matter in hand he had of various kinds.

' Dangerous Pinnacle. It sometimes happens that a girl stepping out at the age of 17 and making.a hit in every direction finds herself at the age of i9 on a dizzy pinnacle of popularity. She’s besieged by admirers, her tele- phone rings so often the family is nearly wild with it, there's a line of cars parked out in front of her home every Sunday night, and altogether she’s a_perfect riot. She's happy, of course, as who wouldn'®be at 19 with a perfect army corps of men running around after you? But she's in a dangerous position. She feels perhaps that because she's the world’s greatest success at the moment her future happiness is as- sured. < Without stopping to realize that there are 40 or-§0 vears of life ahead of her, anywav—six of which she will probably spend unmarried—she looks around her with a complacent smile and sighs, “the world is mine.” That, of course, I8 always a dan- gerous speech. It is dangerous in this case, because it leads the young woman to take all sorts of liberties with those friends of hers. She {8 arrogant hecause she is pow- erful. She keeps men waiting for hours while she dresses, or teas with other men, or has no better excuse than that she has fallen asleep. She does this because she knows the men have no comeback.. Is she not queen of the ball? Aren't tlley the lucky dogs just to have won her prom- ixe to g0 out with them? Well, then, what right have they to kick, be she ever so late, so rude, so thoughtleas? She knows they will forgive her, be- cause they can’t do anything else. They're the under dogs. And the boys, of course, live up to her expectations. Fearful of arousing her highness' resentment, they suffer slights and snubs unprotestingly. They would hate to have the most popular girl in town down on them. Therefore, they take her roguh treat. ment in good part But down underneath they nurse a aecret grudge. Their pride s hurt They would, if they dared, tell her just where she gets off.

Deplores Those Who Managpe Othes People's Affairs Are You Back-Seat Iniver? ‘|DorothyDix What a Pity We Have Back-Seat Chauffeurs at Home as Well as in Qur Cars, Telling Us What to Do and How to Do It. /A MAN in San Franclsco was granted a divorce from his wife the otlier day because she was a back chauffeur. Good work! Only what was coming to her was more than merely losing her meal ticket. I never ride with my marvied friends in their cars and listen to a wife's perpetual admonitions to her husband without wondering It speaks volumes for the herolc self-restraint of man that any woman ever returns happy from an outing in which she has sat complacently in the rear of the car and kept up a monologue of advice to him about how to run it. You know how it goea: “‘Slow down. You always drive as if y Don't go so fast. Step on the gas. »u were going to a funeral. Watch out for that man. Look out, that woman is going to cross the street. Don't run over that dog. Turn to the left. - Don't you see that loaded truck? There's a trafic cop. Watch out for the signals. Don't run into that excavation. This is a one-way street,” and 8o on and on, ad infinitum Many a wife survives, however, but what will happen when it is learned that being a back-seat cHaiffeur is a valid cause for divorce in California one hesitates to prophesy. Probably the stampede of badgered husbands to that favored State will exceed-the rush to the gold flelds in '49. But, alas, not all of the hack-seat chauffeurs are parked in automobiles, nor do they confine their activities to telling the one who is driving the car Just ‘how to do it. 'hey aré omnipresent:#nd:omniscient, and go where we will and do what'we may, We cannot escape them. - G e @ o @ THE back-seat chauffeur. I8’ generally of the female persuasion, although there are exceptions to thix rule, and there are nn;more viclons specimens of the genus and none to be more dreaded than men who have retired from business and who, having nothing to o, spend their time telling other people how they should manage the'r affairs. A curious thing about the back-seat chauffeurs is that they do not feel that they need to have qualified as experts in order to be authorities on any subject. They may not know a clutch from a carburetor; exactly how to make a car and a racing driver how to never have had any children, but they can tell ever: a fanily. but they could tell in a race. They may mother how to rear It s in the domestic circle that the back-seat chauffeurs get in their deadly work and wear the nerves of all of those who are forced to live with them ‘to-a frazzle. éte is scarcely a home in which one or more of these domestic pests doesrt. take all the joy out of livin Sometimes it is an old grandmother or aunt or uncle who drives the young people to the verge of madness by telling how he or she did things when voung, and by wanting to know why the youngsters of today don't do as they did. Sometimes it is a nervous wife and mother who wants to put everybody in red flannel because she is chilly or who makes everybody diet because she has dyspepsia and who never lets a coul leave the.house without warning about, watching out for automobiles or getting feet wet and telling one to be sure not to stay out late. SBometimes it is a fussy husband and father who snoops in the.ice box and {nto-the garbage can and tries to regulate every detail of the housekeeping ov decide on the length of his daughter's skirts. s Toe @ T'S only in the exdeptional home—the one home in a million—that any one can rise up or sit down or stay up or go to bed at night or buy a dress or hat or eat a me'x‘dl without being told exactly how to do it or where to buy it ns how bad everything he likes to eat is for his stomach, and wit hout having td listen to a thousand suggestions and corrections from some back-seat chauffeur member of the household. Apparently it never occurs to these huttinskys that you could possibly have as much intelligence and taste s théy have and that you are quite as capable of managing your own affairs as they are of d:recting them. In fact you probably have a good deal more inside information about your own inclinations and desires and finances than they have. y Nor do they take into consideration the fact that what vou do is none of their business and they have no reason fo interfere. They eternally spoil things for you, for half of the pleasure in life is in doing the thing you want to do without having to have an argument over it, 1 But we will never know this bliss so long as the back-seat chauffeur is with us.

OUT TICKET-HOLDER? BY THE COUNSELLOR. John Bunting felt humiliated. During the war, while in uniform, he was everywhere, The places of entertainment catered to his wishes, But after the war it was dif ferent. There was even a ban on men in uniform. While in Newport on leave John, longing to attend a dance, presented himeelf to the ticket seller to purchase a ticket. The ticket selfr refused explaining that men in uniform were not admitted. Resenting the discrimination, scurried off to a nearby house, changed Into civilian clothes, came back, got his ticket, and then changed back into his uniform. He presented his ticket, but the officials wers still firm and turned him away, offering to return to him the money he had paid. John was a fighter, and the dance officials were soon defending a suit for damages for the humiliation caused the man in uniform by refusing to honor his ticket in the presenc: of so many spectators. But John lost his second fight with the dance men, for the court applied the adjudicated doctrine that: “A ticket to a theater, concert or any such entertainment is a mere rev- occable liscense."

If you will get the habit of mas- saging your neck and chin every time you massage vour face, you will save Yourself a lot of worry later on in life when lines in the skin begin to tell vour age. Keeping youthful is noth- ing but paying attention to just such small detalis while you are still youns. Veck massage is o easy. You can usa flesh building creani if you are too thin or if there are decided wrinkles. Otherwise an ordinary cleansing cream will do, to clear the skin and to make massage easier. Spread it over the face first, then spread a thick film of it over the neck. Rub it into the face thoroughly enough to cleanse the skin, if that is what you.are after, or else massage the face to treat wrinkles. Meantime the neck will have ab sorbed some of the cream. A very quick rubbing will work the dirt from the pores, so that you can wash off the skin, leaving it fresh and clear, and the neck massage will not have taken more than two extra minutes. But if the skin is dry or wrinkled and you use flesh-building cream on it, spend a little more time on the treatment. Let the film of cream stay on the neck while you do your face, and afterwards, give it a fairly vig- orous massage. Massage front and back, too, for you must pay almost as much attention to your back as your HOME NOTES BY JENNY WREN. Popular interest seems to have gone to see for the present.

Use a rotary motion of the fin- ger tips, bunching them all together and then making little circles all over the neck. A few vigorous strokes down the chin and throat to the chest should end the maseage. And all of this needn's take more than three minutes extra Always wash cream from the neck and powder thoroughly. Otherwise, not only will your clothes stain, your neck will stain, too, for it will take up dirt from the alr and dye from vour collars much more easily. A cloth wrung from hot, soapy water will take off most of the cream: your towel and the fowder will absorb the rest. BY EDNA KENT FORBES. S.
