WOMA N!S'PAGE.’ THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, D. New Ways of Trimming Frocks BY MARY Fashion is always racking her brains for new ways of trimming frocks and this season she has hit upon the idea of using tasseled lacers that look like silk shoestrings. Selvedge—which, by the way, merely neans self-edge—has been used to pro- MARSHALL. sists of raveled edges. This is employed | on woolen materials as well as on silks. | Scarfs attached to some of the new | frocks and coats have raveled ends Sometimes collars and cuffs are finished with a narrow raveling and for sports | | skirts the hem is sometimes finished | | with a narrow raveling less than an | inch in width. | Artificial flowers are as important | |as ever and there never was such a wide choice of ways to wear them. One occasionally sees them still posed on the shoulder of an evening gown. The older fashion for wearing them {on the hip is sometimes seen. Right | | in the middle of the front, they appear | sometimes. Two large roses were placed at the back just over the left shoulder | blade in a satin frock that was other- wise most conservative.

One day the perfectly good child, the child who has always smiled sweetly and obeyed promptly, or almost, stands perfectly still and says “no, no” with every evidence of meaning it. What in the world has happened? What can have turned this happy little sunbeam into a little thundercloud? That is the nature of little sunbeams. ‘They grow into other forms. The lit- tle child has grown a bit. From being a baby without self-assertion he (or she) has chdnged into a person who wants to feel that he counts. If this did not happen sometimes between two and three years of age we would have real cause for alarm. As it is we can nod happily and say, “Well, well, the child is alive and growing nicely.” A child’s thought is always far in advance of his powers of expression. He knows more than he can tell. His vocabulary is all too limited and his powers of expression are only in the first stage of their expansion. One word must do duty for a whole series of ideas and the younger the child the bigger fleld his word has to cover. When a little one of two or there- abouts puts his hands behind him, spreads his legs far apart and assumes the attitude of personal dignity willing and able to defend itself, the child is only trying to say, “I'm a person just like you. I have ideas and emotions and appetities and all the rest of the PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. D. Why Hatters Go Mad. No matter what your line may be, if you're human you can't please every- body. Don't I know? A Nebraska reader sends in a clip- ?uu which appears to be an ad. The tem informs us that physicians, ath- letic instructors and other persons of experience over the country are con- demning the craze of going bare- headed. This craze originated in the colleges, the item points out—enough to condemn the fad out of hand-— and it is fast declining as “an excuse for either not buying or not taking care of proper headwear.” In the old days whiskers were never attacked by the haberdashers who found themselves stuck with a lot of nifty neckwear. But then, haberdashers are not necessarily mad, or if they ever do get mad they don't get as mad as a hatter. My opinion of this hatless fad is that it is a healthful one. Not only is it a hygienic habit to go bareheaded at all times when one is reasonably comfort- able without a lid, but I believe it is excellent for the hair. If the bare- headed individual finds snow, rain or extreme cold uncomfortable, he still has enough sense to raise an umbrella or put on whatever covering or protecting clothing he prefers. A writer created considerable concern & year or two ago by telling the world that the bare-headed fad exposed the brain to the risk of grave injury in the Summer time, because, he suggested, ultra-violet rays of sunlight penetrated the skull and worked havoc amongst the DIET AND HEALTH BY LULU HUNT PETERS, M. D. Two Starches Eaten Together. You know how many times I have told you that there is a lot of balder- dash written about food combinations. Now I have unwittingly given the im- pression that I hold with some of these | fads. A short time ago an Ttalian woman wrote that she weighed around 250 and wanted to reduce, but she was having difficulty because she was fond of bread and spaghetti. In my advice to her I said that she must never eat spaghetti and bread of other starchy food at the same meal. Today I have a letter from one of the readers, Mrs. W., who clipped this article from the column, underlined that sentence and asked “Why?” She had thought that taking two or more starches at the same meal might bring the quantity up too high, but that a rson who longed to eat bread and utter with any other starchy food could do so, provided he ate less of each food. My answer, coupled with that of an- other doctor to the effect that a com- mon error in diet was the combination of different starches, has made her be- lieve that possibly there is some chemi- ea) recwon for not combining two starcees at the same meal. Is there? No, Mrs. W., there is no chemical r/ason why two starches should not be eaten together. The reason I gave our ftalian friend instructions not to eat bread and spaghetti at the same meal was the same you have thought of— that she would be apt to have too much i the same if alone or mixed with others. in egg and cracker crumbs and bake in a quick oven until a delicate brown. qualities that make -a human being alive. I'm me.” yells, “No, No,” with all his might and main, he is not rebelling so much against your blindness, your lack of understanding of his place in the world. It isn’'t that he just doesn’t want his spinach. He does not want it, that is true, but his “No, No,” is his expression of indignation against your disregard of his range of tastes. ‘You would not want to eat spinach for 365 days straight running. No, no. And you would not like to be pick- ed up and put where somebody else wanted you to be rather than where you wished to be. No, no. And you wouldn't want to have somebody scrunch a scratchy cap down over your ears. No, no. And if you had eaten all you wanted of your dinner you would hate to have somebody take a spoonful of “nice green vegetable” and push it down your throat. No, no. When your child reaches the stage of “No, no,” you may know that there is a person in the house and if you are a sensible parent you will take pains to meet that new person more than half way. Begin to consult his tastes. Begin to give him choices. Begin ad- justing his opinion of the weather, as it were. A perfectly safe topic yet flattering to one’s dignity. Don’t, unless you are looking for lifelong troubles, force the child td ‘;Iest. yes.” There is a person in the ouse.

NANCY PAGE Girl in Her Teens Has Mind of Her Own. | BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. | Mrs. Lacey dropped in to visit with { Nancy and to pour out her tale of vi>. “You know all these years I have had | the best time dressing the three girls. {Even if they are my daughters, and ‘I say it as I shouldn’t’ I do think they have worn their clothes with an air. They have always liked my way of put- ting them into the same kind of clothes. They were as contented with it as any set of three French sisters. But those days are gone. What I am now going through with my eldest! You know Claire is almost 13. Yester- |day she delivered an ultimatum to me, her mother, mind you! She said she was through dressing in ‘kid’ clothes. |She did not want to wear any more socks. She was tired of having her hair hanging loose. She wasn't going to have her sisters tagging her about any more. “I was perfectly aghast. But you know I believe she was quite right. Her legs are long and lanky for socks, so stockings it is from now on. I told her she could let her hair grow and could catch it back at the nape of her neck. Then I bought her a more so- phisticated looking sweater, and I even let her choose a pleated skirt to go with it. I suppose children do grow neurons within, Maybe some folk with very Hittle gray matter to speak of took seriously and resumed their lids. Aside from sunburn, which is indeed an annoying affliction on one's coco, there is no other objection worthy of consideration when a young man con- templates aggravating the aberration that seems to prevail among hatters. I tried the thing myself for a season or two, and the first two weeks were the hardest. After that, one loses the self-consciousness that the stares of the hatted world cause in the hatless one. Had I started before the bald spot became a drought I might have saved not only my hair but a powerful lot of trouble with headgear. But yon see, I am just in the dangerous age— not yet old enough to disregard what people say or think of my conduct, and | not quite young enough to affect the collegiate bravado. So I am more or less under a lid. ‘The Nebraska correspondent thought the hatter's lament might give me a good laugh, and it did. She mentioned that she saw bare-headed men at a ‘Thanksgiving foot ball game with an inch of snow on their hair, and they all seemed comfortable. Ah, but what penalty will those men pay 20, 30 years hence? That’s the reserve argument the old fogies fall back upon, when the hygiene of Jnakedness or the pathology of clothing is discussed. If I had even a sparse covering of hair, or a becoming toupe for that matter, I'd never again wear a hat un- less it were made a felony to go without one. , (Copyright, 1929.) starch of potatoes is chemically the same as the starch in bread, and all fruits and vegetables contain some starch. If you want to take your starchy foods from different sources, you needn't be afraid, provided you don't overeat of them. The same state- ment applies to the proteins, for chemi- cally all proteins are the same. Diges- tion of each substance takes place just It occasionally happens that some food will disagree and certain combina- tions will disagree, but these are excep- tions and should not be laid down with some absurd reasoning attached for others to follow. Small Lumps and Blotchy Skin. “I wish to ask you about a growth I have on the inner side of my thumb, under the skin. It seems to be getting harder and I feel something ought to be done about it. It is round, white {and hard, but it does not pain me at all. What is it and is it serious? What should I do about it? I would also like '?d know what makes a red, blotchy skin. E” Yes, something should be done about any abnormal lurng on the skin or else- where, and that is to have it investi- gated, E. Yours may be a little fibroid growth which may never mean any- thing except a little annoyance, but you vanish in a reasonable time. A blotchy skin may indicate that there is something wrong with the gen- eral hygienic program somewhere, most likely the wrong diet, or there may be some poisoning from some source. At starchy food at that meal, and when one is reducing one must cut down on starches materially. any rate, have a check-up by a phy- | sician. should have it attended to if it does not up, but it certainly is a wrench when you first realize it. “Her clothes are a fairly easy prob- lem, but her moods, oh me, oh my! She is hilarious at times, then she gets as blue as indigo. She has spells of reading until I have to make her go to bed. I wonder if all mothers have to go through these things with adolescent children.” She sighed and took another sip of tea. “It's a shame. to bother you with this, but I just had to tell some one.” (Copyright. 1929.)

When Beauty Fails To Win a Husband DorothyDix’ i“Men Are Not Half Such Beauty Worshipers as They Pretend to Be, and the Prettiest Girl Is Seldom Most Popular.” | RDINARILY it is the plain girl who is jealos of the pretty one, and it is | ly Jane who wants to know why Pulchritudinous Pauline should have all th!eiod':l:og. while she is left sitting on the sidelines to ponder upon the injustice of fate that glves one girl a pench:;—snd-crelm complexion and bestows a -biscuit complexion upon another. “]e“(;‘cl:a?i:?\:lly. ho‘zwever. the shoe is on the other foot and it is the ugly | | duckling who catches the worm, so to speak, while the swan hunts in vain for “ a meal ticket. alled to my attention by a young woman who writes that she }?a:c‘t]a)?exsa:eevgag prizes in genuty contests, but that she makes no hit with the men, while they all fall hard for her sister, who isn't even good-looking. She says that while men rest their eyes by looking at her, they pop the quzsnoni to plain sister, and she wants to know by what secret arts and wiles Cinderella is so often able to lure a good catch away from Miss Venus. Well, there are several answers to that question. The first is, perhaps, that | men are not half such beauty worshipers as they profess to be. Speak to u-.m.! about any woman and the only question they ever ask is: “Is she good-looking? ‘They never ask: “Is she intelligent?” “Is she well educated?” “Is she amiable or agreeable?” “Has she charm?” Nothing but her personal appearance seems to count. When men discuss women among themselves, their discourse centers around their beauty or lack of it. From this women naturally conclude that men are so beauty mad that they would never give a second look at any maiden whom Heaven hadn’t blessed with a Greek profile and naturally wavy hair, and all the other accessories of form and features that go to make up a lallapaloosa. Hence, the frantic efforts of women to conform to men’s ideal, and the agonies they undergo in trying to be beautiful though ugly. % STRANGELY enough, however, in real life men do not put the stress upon feminine pulchritude that they do in theory. The prettiest girl in any com- munity is seldom the most popular, and when it comes to marrying the plain girl can cut wedding rings around the professional beauty. An observation of the married ladies of your acquaintance will convince you that few of them were married for their looks. .. Another reason why the homely girl frequently wins out over her better- looking sister is because nature is not as unjust as we often think it is, and when it skimps on the outside adornment of a woman's head, it is often lavish on the inside furnishings. Of course, a homely woman who is a fool is sunk, but an ugly woman with brains can be the most fascinating creature on earth. ‘We use the phrase “a living picture” in speaking of a beauty, and often it is only too accurate a description. The beauty is nothing but a living picture at which one grows tired of looking because it is always the same. There is no intelligence back of it. No versatility. It has no surprises. It gives nothing back, whereas the clever, homely woman can keep one perpetually interested, entertained, amused, and has an inexhaustible box of tricks that keeps one so 1!;!1’!3\1(;& wondering what she will do next that one ceases to notice how she looks. Still another place where the beauty loses out, and where the homely woman has her innings, is in the matter of vanity. The beauty expects men to bow down and kotow before her, while the plain girl busies herself burning incense before the masculine shrine. The beauty expects men to spend their money upon her and lavish attentions upon her, as no more than her due. She expects them to tell her | how beautiful and how wonderful and lovely she is, and she is so engrossed in admiring herself that it never occurs to her that they would like a little appreciation, or to have her notice that they are not so bad-looking themselves. e e "THE homely girl is grateful for small favors and is so appreciative of being taken about that men get a kick out of their dates with her that they do not get out of those with the girl who considers that the privilege of looking at her is cheap at $20 an evening. Also, the homely girl, not having to waste any time admiring herself, is free to seize the opportunity of letting a man find out what a sheik, and how big and strong and w-0-n-d-e-r-f-u-l she considers him. And between working the spotlight, and having it turned full upon you, which is the pleasanter experience? I ask you. Still another reason why the homely girl can so often outdistance her more pulchritudinous rival is because she has a more varied technique. The beauty generally depends altogether on her looks. She knows she is balm to the eyes and she considers that enough. But the homely girl knows she has to make men forget her looks, and she gets busy cultivating a line of variegated charms so that if one fails she has another line of strategy to fall back upon. She cultivates her mind because she knows that while men may listen to drivel from a blonde who is a peachareno, an ugly woman has to be a spellbinder to hold them. She learns how to dance and play a good game of bridge, for she is aware that even the Venus de Milo would never get a cut in, or be asked to sit in a game, if she had to be dragged around the floor like a ton of lead, or trumped her partner’s ace. She acquires the art of fascination, which consists in never being dull, never talking about yourself, and always being ready to listen to the other fellow. That is why the homely girl so often wins out, for beauty is in the eye of the beholder and those look good to us in whose eyes we see mirrored a flattering image of ourselves. DOROTHY DIX.

Don't be alarmed at the term if you haven't heard it. It's a simple idea and a good one; it's nothing more or less than keeping busy to keep well and to get well. The idea is being applied on a large scale and with great success to patients suffering from mental dis- orders; it's helping them to regain mental order. It gives them occupation that takes their minds out of the rut and ditch into which they have fallen by original weakness and unfortunate circumstances. Useful occupation helps them to behave more like human beings in every way. Occupational therany (familiarly known as O. T.) makes oc- cupation a part of treatment; it works by putting the mind to useful and In- teresting work. It gives the mental energy an outlet through the hand. Imagine a large hall, big enough to | hold 1,000 persons, arranged as a Christmas bazaar with tables and walls filled with objects of Weavings and embroideries and tapes- tries and rugs, all the arts of the loom and the needle, coarse and fine, colorful and subdued, ingenious in design and converted to useful purposes, and re- member that these hundreds of textiles were made by patients whom we indis- criminately call insane. For this hall is the assembly hall of ®Vards Island, a hospital for the insane of the State of New York.

These pa- tients have excellent instructors who teach them the technique and guide their efforts, but the objects are de- signed and executed by the patients. It is an expression of their minds, and it is quite up to the average of a display of a “woman’s exchange” in a representative community. ‘The men pursue varied crafts. They do metal work in forged and wrought Ear Training. turning anything from waste copper | from the roof to an aluminum plate, into ¥mps and trays and boxes and vases and bowls of good workman- iron, in hammered copper and brass, | ship and of original design. ‘There is woodwork, carved and painted and neatly joined; work in cement and modeling in other materials give an outlet for form and construction.

This is precise.y where handicraft succeeds and the ma- chine work fails—in the effect on the worker. Occupational therapy is a good pol- icy for many of the nervous ills that abound in all complex societies, from aimless doings to the recovery from |grief and disappointment. These are all problems in adjustment. What handicraft does for one group, social service, intellectual employment, a job adjusted to the interest and needs of the personality will do for others. There is salvation in work for all minds provided it offers the interest in the doing of it, the satisfaction of getting it done and some measure of appreciation. Such an exhibit of what minds never normal or no longer | normal or temporarily abnormal can do, may do more than argument to con- vince the public that the so-called “in- | sane” are human beings just like the | rest of us. It's a long step from the | practice of 100 years ago when the in- sane were chained and placed in pad- Ided cells to occupational therap; it's a story to the credit of psyc | and humanity.

I hasten to add I do not run a beauty shop and am directly responsible for cold cream and possible extravagance only to this extent—that some readers, wishing to make a little money, have taken and made up my formulas for sale and called the various products after me, which I thought charming of them! As to the value of fussing over your- self and improving your looks, in the Essex County Hospital, in New Jersey, the superintendent recently decided to open a beauty parlor for the insane patients. Here the women can be mas- saged and marcelled and manicured; the men also generally barbered and manicured. The superintendent drew the line at lipsicks, I've been told, but for the rest decided to encourage all the patients to improve their looks, be- lleving this would go a long way to- ward curing them. Another beauty parlor has been opened in the Illinois State Hospital at Kankakee, and reports from there say he mental health of the patients from culture, in the sense of making oneself better looking, helps make the insane saner, it certainly can’t do any mental | harm to one already in one's right ' senses!
