MAGAZ BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. Safety Requirem ATHING is one of the Summer sports enjoyed by young and old alike. Some prefer surf bathing. some still-water bathing. Some enjoy salt water plunges best, Wwhile others find the warmer tempera- tures of lake and river water more to their liking. But whatever the pref- erence. the exercise of the spo:t is per- haps the most universally enjoyed of INE PAGE. ents in the Surf and unawares, the arm holding the life line may be severely wrenched.

However fine & swimmer he may be, he is unwise when he swims far out to sea |or away from a lake or river bank when he is alone or out of sight of any one on the shore. There is no reflection on his ability as a swimmer when he avoids such dangers.

OT long ago I went to hear a famous beauty culturist deliver a lec- ture specifically addressed to grandmothers, in which she held out the alluring prospect to them that if they did thus and so as she directed and used her creams and lotions, they would still be flappers at 70 and as slim and beautiful as they were at 20. Of course, the treatment, plus the creams and Jotions, consisted in doing withcut everything on earth that they wanted to eat and spending hours in la\rous and boring exercises and walking their poor feet off and being Sister Annie-forever on the housetop, looking for a sagging muscle or ai embryonic wrinkle, which seemed to me a poor occupation for one’s declining years. But let that pass. HAT struck me, as I listened to the sibyl spinning her glamorous prophecies, was why any woman of 70 wanted to look like 17. As well might some priceless antique carved by patient hands centuries ago and with the patina of time upon it envy some brand-new, shiny var- nished piece of furniture just out of the factory. Tre thing that makes the one beautiful and valuable is just that it is old, that jt has known so much and seen so much, that so many things have happened to it and that about it cluster so many memories and dreams and romances, while the other is nothing but just new. 8o for an old woman to throw away her age would be for her to cast aside her greatest charm. Her very years add to her fascination. She 1is interesting because she has lived so long and because she has been through the great experiences of life. She has known youth and love and marriage and birth and death. She has laughed and wept and struggled and striven and succeeded and failed. She has touched the lives of hundreds of other men and women and heard their heart stories, and out of it all she has woven some sort of philosophy that mekes her not only a more interesting companion, but more satisfying to look upon than when she was a debutante. 'HERE is character in her face, not just the inane prettiness of the living picture with nothing behind it but the beauty of fresh coloring and symmetrical drawing and of which you tire because it has nothing to give you but prettiness. The old women is a portrait with a story in every line that has been etched in by the acld of experience and that piques the curiosity of the dullest and keeps us wondering about her. So we wonder, looking upon the old woman's storied face, but what & blank it would be if she could achieve her heart's desire and look like a flapper at 70. Who would want a grandmother who was an under- study of the girl friend, who jumped around like a monkey on a stick to show how nimble she was and who was afraid to mention anything that happened lest it date her. (ONE could weep tears of blood out of sympathy for the millions of famiched women who gird their hunger belts a little tighter and pess by the mayonnaise and tkhe whipped cream that their souls crave in a heroic effort to get and keep a boyich figure when they might far better be fat and comfortable, and would actually look better, looking their age. For there is one glory of the sun and another glory of the moon, and not less attractive than youth is age that does not ‘ape youth, but accepts the years with what they bring graciously instead of fighting sgainst theg, ard that sits serene in the twilight musing on the folly of those who try' to manufacture a synthetic youth, instead of enjoying the perquisites of age, which are many and great DOROTHY DIX.

Watchin, him, you soon see that he fights from ambush and not face to face. Up on a h perch he awaits his victims.

This attitude |of averages is the result of experience and may be applied to everything that |men think about, complain about or approve. This law of averages has | something to do with your mental re- | actions to rainy days, hot days, needed holidays, poor highways. | Those who have not learned the meaning of such an attitude stopped | growing mentally when they were very | young.

NE touch of white makes the whole dress smart—that is, of course, if the bit of gandie, pique or ribbon is im. maculately fresh and of pre- | cisely the right design. Washable dresses of colored linen and cotton ar made with pipings and insets of white pique or linen or organdie, and dresses | of chiffon or silk crepe that connot be’ washed but must needs go to the cleaner are given a smart touch by re- movable white cuffs, collars, vestees or | bows. | In many of the stores you will find | charming sets of crisp white organdie | or pique, consisting of cuffs and match- instead of the mcre usual cuffs and collar. You may, if you like, wear the bow at the left side of the collar, but the smartest arrangement right now is to wear it directly in the center at the angle of the “V” neck- line. With a sleeveless or short-sleeved dress you may weer the smart white neck bow without the cuffs, and this may be made of organdie, pique or pique ribben. Organdie bows are made of strips of organdie, simply hemmed or edged with lace. They are tied in bows and untied when they are washed | and froned. You can buy pique ribbon | some of the stores or you may use | white ribbed ik ribbon—like a light- | weight., wide, belting ribbon—helf silk | and half cotton. The ends of the rib- bon may be cut off diagonally or cut straight and finished with a fringe a little less than an inch wide. | An attractive and dainty neck acces- sory may consist of a band of pique or organdie to follow the neckline of the dress with a matching bow. It is worth noting. too, that pure white is usually preferred for these lingerie ac- cessories, but they may be of a light ecrn or cream tone, if you find this more beccming sht, 1932) GOOD TASTE TODAY BY EMIL’ Famous Authori S I have written many times—and A I suppose I shall write many or our hands or innate charac- ter.
