' B—10 WOMEN Increasing Popular @ 'S FEATURES. Make-Up Kit Designed To Conform With Plane Luggage Requirements Cosmetic Gleanings of Today Include New | Wave Setting Lotion Made of Tree Fiber. BY MARGARET WARNER. OSMETICS have taken pace with woman’s swift fligh professional world, where, C above the clouds. Being well groomed knows that she cannot neglect her appearance evl to the air at last. They had to do it to keep t to the top ranks in the business and in order to reach and keep her place, she en when she is is part of the game. It not only pays, but it must be done. And s0 With the increasing number of women who travel by plane there flashed across theg mind of a clever flying hostess the necessity for an adequate make-up case that is good looking, light in weight, containing all the essentials of s complete cleansing and make-up treatment, that is the last word in smart travel toiletries. And who could be better qualified to know the needs of the woman pas- sengers on the airlines than the hostess who watches over them daily? She has seen them separated from their skyrobes stored in the baggage compartment at the rear and utterly inaccessible; she has watched their ineffectual efforts to make a smart appearance after an all-night trip, with the result that she talked the matter over with one of the leading beauticians and her idea was put to work immediately. At a party given in her honor while in Washington, she showed three of these lovely cases, which are the direct result of her brilliant idea, and are now obtainable on the particular aire lines over which she travels, and, of course, in city shops as well, for they are just as valuable for trips by any means of transportation. These cases are made of gleaming black alligator skin, lined with moire, ‘The medium size is, perhaps, the pop- ular choice, and is shown in the photograph. Notice the zipper fast- ening all around the edge and the bottles laid flat to conserve objec- tionable height. In the top, behind the cash envelope is a splendid mirror that is removable.

This curious lotion obtained | from nature is free from any harm- | ful chemicals and is colorless. Before | 1t becomes & lotion it is in the form of | thin, satiny ribbons of wood fiber, but | when immersed in water it forms a solution that will set a wave in half {the usual time and leaves the hair | smooth, lustrous and without any dry | flakes that often appear after using | regular wave lotions. The wood fiber itself may be rubbed on the scalp as a tonic and stimulant, and altogether this latest discovery is a regular won- der worker for both patron and oper- ator. Do ask to have this used the next time you have a shampoo and ‘ finger wave, We are sorry to say that you can't buy it to use at home. * * % % THE foot ball season is with us with all its gayety and enthusiasm, | and as we swing into the season with | our swing clothes and music we need |a swing perfume to complete the | picture. | One that is suggested for this pur- | pose makes you think of going places and doing things at the first whiff. | It's an ideal perfume to wear to a | foot ball game because it is tangy | enough to be right for the game it- | self, and sophisticated enough to party later. It is one of those rare perfumes that women adore and men | like, too. If you'd like to fly down the field to a touchdown of your own, let this perfume do the trick for you. There are several new perfumes due to make their appearance in the shops almost any day now. We have heard wonderful things about them and | hope to see them in town soon. * x X % ANOTHER discovery that we have 50 easily overlooked that you may have passed it by just as we did. It is a deodorant in the form of a com- pact with cake powder and a puff.| Rather a novel way of presenting it | and yet so practical and so easy to | use in an emergency. It checks both the odor and the perspiration itself and can be used as often as necessary | under the arms or wherever perspira- | | tion occurs. It is even good to dab on a shiny nose or chin! And just| as easy and pleasant to use as your | vanity. You can carry one in your | purse and it is perfectly splendid | to keep one in your desk at the office | to insure daintiness at all times. These compacts are inexpensive and | are put out by a well-known manu-i facturer of deodorant preparations. | For information concerning items | mentioned in this column call Na- tional 5000, Extension 395 between 10 and 12 am.

It is crocheted of fairly large mercerized crochet cotton, so that it really isn’t a life’'s work to complete even a large dinner cloth.

Miss Emma might have delivered lectures on service, co-operation, re- sponsibility and the rest until her preath failed her and sturdy Conlon would never have heeded one syllable of it. But when the team captain and the rest of the group cold- shouldered him he felt it. He wanted nothing in the world so much as the approval of his team mates and when that was withheld he was beaten. School opinion is what clinches the teachers’ work. We can sow and we can water the seed, but the opinion of the school is what brings the growth into full stature. If the captain had shrugged his shoulders and lifted his brows at the suggestion that some one inspect and arrange the classroom be- fore leaving it nobody would have offered. Conlon would have been justified, the team would have silently supported his attitude and Miss Em- ma's bid for co-operation and service would have gone without takers. Bu! the captain was not without good qualifications for that post. He un- derstood vaguely what was wanted and threw his support on the right side. Wise teachers look for the support of the leaders among the pupils. They select the responsible members, put responsibility upon their shoulders and help them carry on. The unofficial teachers of the classroom, the play- felds, the study halls are the essential forces for vital education. Too often this is overlooked.

Equipment Dix Says HERE is no individual in the world who has been so glori- fled as the old-fashioned mother. Mother-love, mother- patience and forgiveness, mother's sacrifices, have formed the plot of in- numerable novels, the theme of mil- lions of mammy songs and are always good for a rousing cheer and a sur- reptitious tear. And justly so. Motherhood is the hardest job that any human being ever undertakes. It calls for the cour- age of a soldier, the long suffering | forbearance of a saint, the wisdom of a seer, the mind-reading ability of a psychiatrist, the hopefulness of an op- timist, coupled with the ability to work longer hours than a stevedore. Any woman who can pull off a stunt like this deserves all the incense we can burn at her feet. Strangely enough, however, while we are fitting a laurel wreath around the head of the old-fashioned mother everybody seems to be busy handing knocks to the modern mother on her most vulnerable places. Nobody has a kindly word to say for her. Every- body is on her neck and she is ac- cused of being at the bottom of all our troubles, from our alphabetical-soup politics down to the present fashion in hats, Now without wishing to dim the old-fashioned mother’s luster as a mother, I am here to say that the modern woman is just as good a mother as her grandmother was; in many respects a superior one, be- cause she is better educated, rears her | children more scientifically—and be- | | lieve it or not—takes better care of | | her children than grandmother did of hers. * ok ¥ x | GRANDMOTHER took her children | as they came, and whether they | lived or died she laid at the door of an inscrutable Providence.

By far the most fas- cinating part of preaching beauty and teaching beauty is seeing the ual evolution of beauty from year to year. It has been interesting, too, to note the difference in the attitude on the part of schools throughout the coun=- try.

Above all, the modern mother saves herself from committing the crime of being a possessive mother. The olde fashioned mother thought that you couldn't love a child too much and cling too closely to it. The modern mother knows that mother love can be the greatest curse that can befall a child. It can block its opportuni= ties, stifle its ambition, thwart s love impulses and ruin its whole life, therefore she is continually on her guard against enslaving her children to her affections. Wherefore, for these and other reasons, I contend that the flapper mother is a better mother than the old-fashioned one. DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1936, Attendants In Wedding Procession BY EMILY POST.
