Yes. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. The milliner was showing Lois and Nancy the new hats. Truly, they seemed revolutionary and a far cry from the | tight-ftting felt cloches which had been so universally popular a few years before. It is true that the Spring and Summer of 1931 had pointed the way to a_greater variety and femininity in hats, but even so— All of the hats, as the milliner point- ed out, showed quite a bit of hair. The exposed forchead, which had not been becoming to most women, had become, happily enough, a thing of the past. Usually the hats dipped over one eye—the right one—and then showed the left eye and much hair over the forehead and ear of the left side of the head There was one trim and trig canoe shape. with its ribbon trimming going straight back over the turned-back brim and the smail round crown. Then there was the modification of the derby, sleek and vet feminine with its trimming of a tailored bow. A Mercury hat with its wings, cele- brated by its namesake, was a great favorite. " The equestrienne type, some- thing like the derby, but more alluring, with its bandeau coming far down on the left side and its trimming of cock feathers, is sometimes known as the Empress Eugenie hat. The milliner cautioned both Nancy and Lois concerning this hat. Only a young person with a fresh and rested face and with soft tendrils of hair cov- ering her left ear and softening the line of the forehead should try to wear this hat. ‘It is a dificult one at best. It needs youth and dash to bring out its allure. THE EVENING Milady Beautiful BY LOIS LEED! ““Olive Complexion.” Dear Miss Leeds: I am a girl 17 years old and I would like to know what Answer—Evidently you wish to be- long to the olive-skinned type, and perhaps nature intended you to have a dainty pink and white complexion However, if you will coat your face rather generously with cream and then enjoy the sunshine of Summer I think R your skin will be quite dark enough to | please you in a comparatively short time—provided, of course, that your type of skin will tan at all. The cream will prevent sunburn and will help you gain a deep coat of glossy tan without injury to the skin. Of course you must begin the exposure to the sun gradually or you will.have a painful case of sun- burn in spite of the cream. When you g0 to the beach you might take a stick of cocoa butter with you and then oc- casionally rub the skin with this. It will help you in your quest for a dark brown skin and the oil in the cocoa but- ter will make it a listrous, attractive brown, rather than a dry, burned, un- attractive skin, If your skin never tans but instead burns or freckles, better use # sun-tan liquid powder to make it ap- | pear dark. LOIS LEEDS. Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. An introvert is one who turns his thoughts away from his surroundings | and centers them upon himself. This habit usually begins early in life. Par- |ents and teachers noie that the intro- vert in the making is morose, bashful, | tends to play alone, etc. Suppose now we have an adult intro- vert. How shall we know him? The introvert appears to be indifferent to other persons. He may be courteous, even friendly, but back of that courtesy or friendliness one notices a certain point beyond which it is impossible to The introvert seems always to re- When you think you know his | mind, you discover that he has retired to_another entrenchment. The result is that the introvert be- comes a continual pioblem to you. You don’t know whether to admire him or to condemn him. You may be his business partner for years and really not know him. If you are leasing a piece of property to an imtrovert, he insists upon a care- ful study of the provisions. He wants | “time to think it over.” Then he comes back with some saving clause which he would like to have incorporated in the |contract. On the other hand, if you are leasing from him, he insists on those clauses that will protect the property and provide for collection of the rent. When the introvert pays a bill, he wants eceipt. He is the man who has his attic full of letters, re- ceipts, etc. He never seems to trust any one fully. He does as a rule, how- ever, have a few close friends. (Copyright. 1931.)

Right away he forgot everything else, for this was tHe first one he had seen. “It is Jimmy Skunk's little cousin,’ he muttered under his breath. Just then another appeared and they began to play in the moonlight. Now and then they would disappear in the surrounding shadows, and he could hear them pattering about and appar- ently investigating everything. It was surprising how clearly "he could hear the patter of those little feet. After a while they tired of play and disap- peared through the open door. Once more Farmer Brown's Boy tried to g0 to sleep, but just as he was dozing off he was startled by a loud thump close to the door. Instantly he was wide awake again, straining his cars. He had just about made up his mind that it was all his_imagination when he heard it again. This time he knew it for what it was, the thump of a Rabbit.
