HOLLYWOOD, Calif., September 11. ~—In a community where thousands of | pretty girls are daily strugeling to win & place in (he limelight, comedy and tragedy are the order of events. ‘The Cinderella story is good for at Teast one fortunatc girl a month. She s rescued from the dimness of some basement store or the doubtful fra- grance of a quick-eats joint and made .an actress in the wink of an eye. Dolly Hanna is today's Cinderella. She was the best willing worker in a downtown hashery. ‘When the proprietor told her to show a new girl, named Mary, the ropes, Dolly did so with much gusto. Mary turned out to be the famous Mary Duncan, although none of the fans in the quick-eats joint suspected it during the three days that she dropped plates and fumbled with the coffee. There's a moral to the story. Dally Hanna, her willing cicerone, was taken out of the beanery and into the studio by Mary. The actress thinks the little waitress has personality, beauty and temperament. What's more, she feels that any one who knows her waffles as well as Dolly will be an excellent tech- nical adviser to Murnau, the very par- ticular director who demands that de- tail be correct in his pictures, Dolly may or may not make a movie actress.

SONNYSAYINGS BY FANNY Y. CORY. For the reasons mentioned, the ward- robe must be carefully chosen. At |almost no other season would one think of requiring clothes of such con- trasting nature—organdy and wool—in the same sult case or trunk. The | caprices of the monih are apt to make | both needed. | " As one does not wish to burden one’s | self unduly with wearing apparel. it [is worth some study to find out how to attain the best balance. For some reason. the brighter and more festive air of light and colorful Summer gar- | | ments seems in better accord with | the idca of a hol than the more cumbersome kind of clothing, and cer- | tain it is that some hot weather will | | come. However limited the space, it! is recommended that the girl or woman | vacationing take at least one light Summer _outfit, complete with hat and | shoes. If no other light ensemble is| taken the dress should be of a kind| to adapt itself to many occasions. | One of raw silk or rajah is an ex- | | cellent choice. for the material may | be suggestive of sports or dress wear. | according to the accessories worn. With sport hat and scarf, it has every evi-| dence of beine intended for nothing | more dressy. But if there is a function | which demands something more elab. orate such a dress, worn in combina- | | tion with a handsome hat is thoroughly consistent, especially if a smart flower | be perched uvon the shoulder, and a| colorful parasol be included as an ad- funct to the costume. Preference may dictate an even lighter sort of ma- | terial than that described. | The foreeoing suggestion is particu- | larly for those who “travel on a suit| |case.” The one who takes a trunk| need not figure quite so closely as toj | the adaptability of a singie costume, | |but can include more variety. Advice |to her would be to take several com- nlete changes of Summer costume. At | least one dress of the medium weight | | afforded by wool erepe should be con- | | sidered a necessitv, and a dress or| |two of jersey cloth will prove indis- | pensable. |71 coing into the mountains, one should take a nightgown of some warmth.

FEATUR DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX Why Women ILose Their Husbands’ Love—The Best Way to Safeguard a Daughter From Unde- sirable Acquaintances—Advice to Lovesick Youth. DEAH MISS DIX: The time comes in every woman's life when her husband informs her that she is getting old. What should she do? Go in mourning? I have solved my own trouble. I watch my husband to see how vleasant he is to young women, even though he is so unpleasant to me, and I copy his example. ‘There are many young men who love a sweet old lady. know there is still love in the world and I am getting some of it. I am happy. for 1 MRS, A. There is no disgrace in being old, nor does it necessarily make a woman less attractive. Many elderly women are better looking and far more interesting than they were when they Were girls. broader-minded, and when it docs it makes her more lovable. ‘When women lose their husbands' affections, nine times out of ten they lay it to age, but age is never to blame. A man doesn’t suddenly cease to love, his wife because that, and her age has nothing whatever to do with it. If they had been chums and companions thronghout the years they would together, and he would never have noticed that Sometimes a woman loses her husband's lové by her lack of sympathy with him, by her nagging or her extravagance or by her being . poor and shiftless housekeeper and never making him comfortable. of character and is lured by every fresh face. Sometimes neither husband nor wife is to blame. They were just constitutionally antagonistic and had nothing in common. They had nothing with which to feed the fire of love and so it burned out. " not age, and if wives would devote the same amount of time and energy to trying to understand their husbands and jolly them along that they do to trying to keep themselves young they would have less need to be afraid of the flappers. But you are wise to have put on your stepping-out clothes instead of mourning wh you found out that vour husband was a-weary of you. It does no good to weep over spilt milk, fior-to bewail recreant men. Tears and reproaches do not bring back the stfaying husband, and the best thing that a wife can do under such circumstances is simply to accept the situation and get the most she can out of life. She has had her romance. Let her thank heaven for her bit of angels’ food, and fortunately at middle life one does not crave sweets so much as one did in | one’s youth. One loses one’s taste for candy and can get along quite comfortably on roast beef medium rare, with bread and potatoes. So you are very wise to take the good the gods provide for you, to make | friends with the young people with whom you come in contact and to feed your hungry heart on the love of others. I know a few old people who have done | this and they hold a veritable court among the young, who come to them to confide their loves and hopes and ambitions, to bewail their sorrows and rejolce in their triumphs. ‘There are such a lot of things in the world besides sentimental love if only women could be brought to realize it! DOROTHY DIX. e e e EAR MISS DIX: I have a daughter of 15. She is acquainted with a young man and she has asked me if she may have him call at the house, but I think she is too young to have dates. I have found out that she goes with him every chance she has without my knowing it, but I can't keep her in the house all the time. Please tell me what you think I should do. TROUBLED MOTHER. Answer: It is quite common for girls of 15 nowadays to have dates. Of course, it is too young. It would be much beiter if they would wait until they are 17 or 18, but you must remember that everything has been speeded up in this age, and that the present generation of girls are really as old and sophisti- cated at 15 as their mothers were at 20. Your problem, however, is not what should be, but what is. Your daughter is determined to see this young man whether you approve or not, and this being the case, it is a million times better for her to receive him at home with your approval than to deceive you and meect him on the sly on the street. If he comes to your house to see her you give her a background and pro- tection of home. You chaperon her. You have the opportunity to find out what kind of a boy he is, and vou will 2lso be able to influence her, because she will feel that you are giving her a fair deal. T do not think there is any other thing in the world that parents can do that puts their daughters in such a dangerous position as to reh‘l):-‘? to let them have their company at home. It literally throws them out on the street and sends them to all sorts of undesirable places for their amusements. No boy treats the girl that he visits at her home as he treats the girl who climbs out of a No boy takes a girl from her own home to the kind of places he takes the girl that he picks up on the corner. So let ydur daughter have her‘compnny at-home. DOROTHY DIX. o EAR MISS DIX: I am a boy 19 years old and I am so much in love with a girl that I am about to go crazy, but she won't marry me. She says she loves me, and she likes to have me come to se¢ her all the time, but she won't marry me.

Dear Miss Leeds: How can I get rid of a hump on the Back of my neck? I am 20 years old, 5 feet 8 inches tall and weigh 132 pounds. Am I too stout? DOROTHY W. Answer—You are not too stout. In fact, you are five pounds below the average weight for your age and height. Unless the “hump” is some abnormal growth it is probably due to incorrect posture. ‘Try holding your head un straight and your chin level. Quil frequently a lump of fat forms at th back of the neck. This may be reduced by deep massage, neck exercises and correct posture. One good exercise for | the purpose is done by placing one hand on the back of the head and pressing the head backward against re- | sistance from the hand. Rotation of the head is another good exercise. | LOIS LEEDS. | “Rather Stout.” Dear Miss Leeds: I am only 15 years | old and I am rather stout.

I have had two already and they made my hair very dry and coarse, but treatment my hair is in fairl dition again. I would I - an- TTY Answer—T think it is very unwise to use water waving combs every night. During sleep the hair should be loose and the scalp uncovered so that air may get to it. Of course, the combs pull on the hair to some extent and keep the air out. Permanent waving affects dif- ferent types of hair in different way You have seen what it does to your If I were you I would wait until the waved hair has grown down to the ends and the hair and scalp are in first-class condition.

WHY WE DO BY MEHRAN Larrying a chip on the shoulder is taken literally in lumber camp: .nd among boys as a means of str ..ug 2 fight. One member of the gan ; who is peeved, or just for the fun of picking a fight, will place a chip of wood on his shoulder and defiantly parade before the one he wants to fight. The one who is challenged in this way Is supposed o knock the chip from the challenger's shoulder. A fight immediately resuits, In the figurative sense, carrying a chip on the shoulder is essentially an attitude of mind, the attitude of de- fiance, of looking for trouble. The attitude of defiance is the result of an actual or imaginary attack upon some cherished possession. We take this attitude to show our contempt for the challenger, to disprove his conten- tion and, to establish our superlority. . - The truly superior person, howeve, scarcely ever assumes this attitude. .ile knows his powers and limitations. He is not greatly disturbed by criticism and insinuations to the contrary. On the other hand, the inferior per- son is not so sure of himself and fails more readily a victim to ridicule.
