WOM AN'S PAGE Influence of Greek Costume BY MARY There is a great deal about present- day fashions that is not Greek. One sees ruffles and frills and flounces on some of the smartest of the new dresses that would be entirely out of the pic- ture in any Greek dress. And yet there are certain similarities in present-day MARSHALL. worn by Greek girls of long ago to hold their hair in place when they joined in the popular games and sports. Greek girls and women wore their hair not very long, not very short. It hung to the shoulders and was looped and curled in such a way as to leave the natural contours of the head undis- turbed. and this is the mode of hair arrangement that is approved today. Greek women snarad no pains in the arrangement of their hair and the professional hair dresser was &s es- sential to the happiness of women then as he is today. Simple as was the gen- | eral effect of the finished coiffure every hair and curl had to be in place. To carry out the ideals of classic Greek hair dress some of the most in- fluential hair dressers are making use of filets and bands for evening wear. through the aid of which wavward locks of the partly grown hair are easily keot in position. Sometimes these consist of simole strands wrought with brilliants and _somctimes of elraming wreaths leaves and | flowers. of (Copyrisht. 1930 Soft Gingerbread.

The much more heipful attitude is to one’s_eyes open, note the acts of children which are in- explicable and relate them to some changes in the home situation which might be responsible for them. Mrs. A. W. admits having had no experience with jealousy. But she like: wise admits that she has made real efforts to prevent its arising.

The modern girl is not worried about such things, to be sure, but her mother is, and sometimes loses sleep over the dangers of her child.

Children of like ages feel no such definite place in the home circle. The child of 2 or 3 who must suddenly divide the family's attention with a new baby is too young to be philosophi- cal about this change in h's status He only knows that the attention he craves is no longer forthcoming, and he heartily dislikes the newcomer, who has snatched it from him.
