Some women of indefinite coloring and rather too demure appearance wear { figured materials, convinced that they are more becoming. But this is not always the case. A beret of taffeta silk or satin makes an appropriate between-season hat that can be made at home without difficulty. _And berets are again in fashion.

How Boys Choose Chums. | “When a feller needs a friend” and | | doesn’t have one of the right kind, he may go wrong. When the boys in a school for delinquents—boys who had trouble—were asked how they chose their chums their answers showed a | close-up of the boyish mind. For those | boys are like other boys, except that | they have come up rather hard against | the temptations of life and had a | bump that made them stop and think. | What they want in their chum is a | boy full of fun, fair and square, | friendly, who does things for you. They want a good time, and they want loyalty, partly of the gang spirit, but not very different from what is wanted wherever good fellows get together. | Birds of a feather flock together, and | these boys mostly got into trouble to- gether by reason of their chums. Just plain stealing is the common- est crime, so these boys were asked, “If your chum cheated or stole thing: would you stick by him?" away the snow from the Green Meld-‘ ows and the Old Orchard.

Isn't that about what you would find in any sample of boys, or the overgrown boys | we_call men? There are two kinds of education, the one that goes on in the school and the home where the grown-ups are in charge; and the other in the street and the playground when the kids are doing the educating.

He did his very best to shut out all the other sounds and strained his ears for that whistle again. There it was! It was a little clearer this time. But just where it came from Peter coudn't tell for the life of him. It came from no- where in particular. It sounded as if it might come from a place quite near and it sounded as if it might come from a place far away. Peter thumped. Everybody stopped talking to see what Peter was thump- ing for. “Listen!" cried Peter, and there was excitement in his voice. “Listen!” Everybody listened. They listened and they iistened, and there was great expectancy on all their faces. But they listened in vain. “Pooh!” exclaimed Sammy Jay. “Peter imagines he's hearing things. He—-" SBammy didn't finish Everybody heard it that time. Instantly there was great excitement all through the Old Orchard. Yes, sir, there was great excitement. “Winsome Bluebird!” gether. “Winsome Bluebird has come. That means that sweet Mistress Spring is surely on her way." ‘Then everybody began looking for Winsome Bluebird. They could hear that sweet, plaintive whistle, but they couldn’t find the whistler. They looked here, they looked there. Finally it was the sharp eyes of Bammy Jay that dis- covered a bird high up in an elm tree in front of Farmer Brown's house. Bammy flew over there at once. When he returned Winsome Bluebird was with him. Then the excitement in the Old Orchard was greater than ever, (Covvright. 1928 ) My Neighbor Says: Bugar for fried cakes should be dissolved in milk to keep the cakes from absorbing grease while frying When you have a number of ontons 1 peel, cover them with hot water. let them stand & min- ute or two and that thin skin, 50 hard o get off. can be re- moved ax if by magic It you have only & small amount of meat left, mince it fine, season snd form into little balls, wetting the mest with part of n ey ‘Take the rest of the eggs und mix with some mashed und seasoned potato and cover the meat balls with potato, muk- ing round balls, and fry in deep fat.

Parents and teachers can't do all of it, perhaps not the most of it. A boy's chums are on the job all the time and have the in- side track, because they know the boy as only another boy can know him.

The question as to just how much or how little the muscles need to be sup- ported by corsets and brassieres is of interest to every woman. Ideally one’s muscles should be so firm and well formed that they need no constricting bands to bind them down. Young girls and athletic young women, indeed, can get along very well without such support, but the average woman over 25 years of age usually finds that her clothes set better when she is wearing some sort of girdle or corset. Even women who are under- weight for their height become bulky around the hips, back and abdomen especially if they live sedentary lives. It should be remembered, however, that when the muscles anywhere are bound in tightly every day, they come flabby and unable to support themselves. Wearing corsets gives one | trim lines’ temporarily, but when the supports are removed, the flaccid mus- cles spread again. When rubber corsets are worn for the purpose of reducing they cause profuse sweating that does actually reduce one's girth, but the muscles are not made firm and supple as they should be. A better way to solve the problem is to build for one’s self a natural corset of well knit, flexible muscles by daily ex- ercise. Wear a girdle, too, if you wish, but do not allow the large muscles of the lower - trunk to become flabby through lack of use. If your abdomen is not as flat as you wish do not depend on a corset to hold it in, but make the muscles themselves do it. Form the habit of contracting these muscles. It will be quite tiring at first, but practice will make it easier. Do leg-raising and trunk-twisting exercises also and mas- sage the abdomen to break up the lay- ers of excess fat. Hips and back may also be made slimmer and less flabby by regular exercises as described in my leaflet “Beauty Exercises.” It is a more difficult matter to re- store firmness to the bust after the muscles have been weakened by the wearing ot tight brassieres. In most cases they cannot regain their normal shape. but sometimes they may be im- proved by special exercises and sponging in cold water.
