B—12 There Is WOMEN'S FEATURES. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, TUESDAY,® JULY 6, 1937. WOMEN'S FEATURES. er Name Would Bitg: as Hard A Sense Of Space Is Needed! Do Not Bind Yourself| by Chains of Duty to the Spot. BY ANGELO PATRI WE WHO live too close to children are in danger, every so often, of losing & sense of space. We begin to think that there is no room left for childish groping, childish errors, child- ish growth. We get anxious and press upon them when in reality there is the wide space of infinity stretching out before and about us. Plenty of room for everything, for mistakes and successes and sudden surprises. When you begin to feel that you are & failure as a parent, it is time to stop still and wait until you feel the space widen about you and peace settle upon your spirit. Each of us has a different way of reaching out | into that space. Some of us have to go fishing, some have to play bridge, or take a swim and lie in the sun. Some of us have to climb & mountain or rest by the sea. Most of us have to lay down the burden for a brief time and turn our backs upon it. It is astonishing how the children's intelligence brightens and their man- ners improve as we put space in dis- tance and time between them and us. It is amazing how our love for them deepens and our hopes soar as we remove ourselves a space {rom them. It 18 necessary for us to do this to get a really accurate view of the children end make a fresh start with them. It does not help to bind oneself by chains of duty to the spot. It is futile to say, “I've never left the children for an hour since they were born. I couldn't do such a thing. I féel my responsibility to them far too keenly for that. Iam too conscientious about them to think of leaving them even for & day.” If you will permit me, that is not conscience, that is self-love. The one who says that likes to feel that he is the only man who can serve the chil- dren, the only one who counts. It is good for children to have a change of overseers and guardians occasionally. ‘They enjoy it. by new minds and fresh ideas. They learn to adjust themselves to people and conditions. Instead of staying on & dead level of routine they take the little ups and downs that come as adventures and enjoy them hugely, especially in retrospect. It is great fun to recite the happenings and ex- citements to the returning father and mother. The parents and teachers who take time out for rest and recreation are not shirking their duty, they are per- forming it valiantly. The children under their care are not suffering; they are benefiting by the relief. Teaching functions better after a brief space. It comes into action with more surety and joy after a period of quiet cessation. Don’t wait until you feel crowded by the children's needs and activities, Don’t wait until you are on the verge of temper and tears. Get out before discouragement falls upon your spirit. There is always time for this. Life takes time as it comes along. Saving an hour or a day for the children's growth is beyond any of us. They grow in space, space in time and space in distance, and we must stay beyond both of them to keep in touch with the needs of the children. It sounds queer, but you will find that it is right. (Copyright, 1837.) My Neighbor Says: The lower buds on a spike of gladiolus begin to open first. When one or two florets are fully open is the best time to cut the spike for home decoration. Spikes should not be cut close to the ground if the bulbs are to be kept for planting another year. At least four leaves should be left for ripening the bulbs and bulb- ets. This is very important. Peroxide will quickly remove scorch from white clothing. They are stimulated | "BE 1T EVER BY MARGARET NOWELL [ bination of the best modern equipment with a measure of good design is the difference between a house and a home. John and Mary Chace had a “nest egg” which they decided to invest in a home. After several months of searching “or the ideal house in the ideal location which they could afford they had to compromise, even as you and I. This was a small house, large enough for their family but small enough to be run without a maid if necessary. It was close to a good school for Junior, and the shopping section and the bus line were within walking distance. Several beautiful ening ciien old trees shaded the good-sized lot so that the children had a pleasant place to play. It se€med a happy, well- ordered neighborhood in which to bring up children. ‘The house itself had everything that was strictly necessary, but it was com- pletely devoid of charm. To John it was 8 good investment. As a home it left Mary “cold.” However, since they both were endowed with imagination and with the expenditure of a little additional money make it the home they had dreamed about. ‘They found that the budget could stand an expenditure of $200, $50 of which they set aside to paper and paint the interior. They hired a good paperhanger, who did the entire house in two days, and economized by doing | all the painting themselves. * ok X % THEIR big problem was to make the front of the house more interest- ing—to change an ordinary door into an inviting entrance and a *com- mon garden variety” window into a thing of beauty. The front door was & “standard,” which means that it was turned out by a factory by the thousand, guaranteed to stand wear and tear and to fit any house, any- where. This has its advantages, but it does not lend distinction to an en- trance. Several coats of a weather- proof varnish protected this one from the elements, which was necessary, as there was no covering over the door. Unfortunately, most of Mary's friends were not so protected, so she felt the first gesture in graciousness and hos- pitality would be a roof over the en- trance. She hunted up a good carpenter | who agreed to build a simple roof supported on pillars. ° The lumber company which furnished the mate- Tials also supplied a design and work- ing drawing, which saved an archi- tect’s fee. From a wrecking company she purchased a load of salvaged brick at about a third of the price of new ones, their warm, rosy shade much nicer than the harsh red of new ones. These were used to pave the floor of the porch. * K ¥ ok Q THE windows on the first floor were also “standard,” and as there was only one on each side of the door, they looked entirely inadequate and un- important. Mary felt that adding to their length in some way would make them more interesting in themselves Dig into your scrap bag for gay colored bits. Combine them in the pattern of this lively quilt, and in no time at all you'll have a charming new addition to your bed room. The pleces are to be appliqued onto a plain background, and the hoe and outlines are embroidered. It's the sort of design that you can use anywhere. The pattern envelope contains complete, easy-to-understand illustrated directions, with diagrams to aid you; also what material and how much you will need. To obtain this pattern, send for No. 490 and inclose 15 cents in stamps ©or ooln to cover service and postage. Address orders to the Needlework Editor of The Evening Star. (Coverisht. 1037.) S YOUR home “putting its best foot foremost,” or does it need a little face- lifting by an expert surgeon? The facade of 50 many houses is completely uninteresting! Many times a more gracious doorway or a minor change on the'front will lift it out of the category of “just another house” into that select group where the first impression is one of distinction and charm. Otherwise excellent little houses fail to live up to expectations because the designer did not realize that the com- ———— = {good 10 and ingenuity, they decided to buy it | SO HUMBLE and “do more” for the house. She sent for the carpenter again and had him make a panel of wood, which was set below the sash, giving the win- dow the appearance of extending to ground level and adding almost a third in height. ‘Then she went back to the wreck- ing company and for $2 additional “swapped” her old shutters for two pairs that had come from an old Victorian house. These in place on her windows continued from the top of the window to the lower edge of the panel, making them in much bet- ter proportion to the front of the house as well as more interesting. The front door and the shutters were | painted a soft shade of blue-green On either side of the door she placed tubs with ivy trailing up on a slender trellis. The dark ivy pointed up the picture of rosy brick and soft green door against the white wall. John and Mary agreed that the box- like appearance of the house might be improved by the addition of a porch, but any further construction at that time was beyond the budget. Again employing some ingenuity and a little effort they decided to make a grass terrace, which they reached from the house by cutting a door from one of the windows in the liv- ing room. The terrace was 10 inches high at one end. John cut down into the bank to make the floor level. With more of Mary's salvaged brick he built a retaining wall, setting it a inches below the surface of the ground and carrying it out from the wall about 14 feet. Into this brick foundation a pipefitter set a framework of 2-inch iron pipe to support an awning roof. The floor was seeded with shady lawn grass, and by raising the awning once or twice a week it remained green all Summer. The awning was of white | canvas, lined with a blue-green color similar to that on the shutters, which produced a much cooler effect than N Eotiancs wnd intem Treatmant the glare of sunshine on white. With the addition of a few pots of gera- niums and flowering petunias on the wall, and the step, Mary had a ter- race she would not have exchanged for the best porch the lumber com- pany could have built. I served 88 an outdoor living room, which was & joy through a Washington Sum- mer. From this ordinary little house these two young people, with a very little money, good taste and the “will to do” secured a home that satisfied them in every way. At the end of 10 years they enlarged the house by an addition on the east side, which provided guest bed rooms and bath, servants’ quarters and a play room. In spite of John's increasing im- portance in the community and the demands of growing children, the little house increased in size and charm to fill the need. o Shoes Go Gay.

No Doubt That a Midge by Any Oth Annoying Pests Spoil Much of Our Pleasure In Living Out of Doors Insects Usually Breed in Rotted Trees, or Along Edges of Stagnant Salt M arshes, BY BETSY CASWELL. HAVING been practically chewed to ribbons on Sunday in my “mountain home" by insects that every one but which I was brought up to seemed to have a different name for— call simply “midges,” and having had several letters recently from victims of the same bloodthirsty little pests, I feel that the time has come to do a little “sounding off” on the subject. Some time ago I went into the matter, consulting the Bureau of Ento- mology and Plant Quarantine of the< United States Department of Agricul- ture on how best to cope with the troublesome insects. They, as usual, gave me splendid co-operation, and some very helpful information — helpful, that is, to people who can control their sur- roundings better than I can my rented abode. For, apparently, wrecking their little homes is the only way to do away with midges. And as their dom- icles om the i, ceewell mountain are in tree-holes—and our house is sur- rounded with hundreds and hundreds of trees—I think I'm definitely licked before I start! * oK K X CCORDING to the bureau, biting midges are known variously as “sand gnats,” “no-see-ums,” “punkies,” “sand-flies” and just plain “gnats.” They typify the old saying about “a | rose with any other name * * ¢ for a midge by any other name bites just as hard. They are so tiny that they can penetrate practically any fine mesh window screen, and they have a perfect passion for the bright lights and gay night life. Because of this, the unwary soul who wants to read of an evening, indoors or out, is beset by the critters in appalling numbers. And do they bite! Hours—even days—after, the little swellings keep on appearing, with the accompanying desire to tear the skin surrounding | them to pieces. And the bites are you have done a good scratching job, you look like you'd been in a cat and dog fight. In general, there are two breeding places for midges, salt marshes and in rot holes of trees. Shore front property is persecuted by the former, and fnland and mountainous places by the latter. If you don't live in a perfect forest: it is a good idea to ex- amine the trees about the house very carefully, and, if rotted holes are found, trim the edges away so that the place is permitted to drain. Treat the exposed surface with creosote to stop further rot, and to heal the tree. Kerosene applied to rot holes will not kill the midge larvae, but creosote or creosoted pine sap, will. Dorothy ALT marsh bred midges are § st as troublesome as their dry-land brothers. Their larvae may te found in the decaying leaves and silt around the edges of the marshes, where there is deep shade, and little tidal move- ment. Trim trees so that sunlight is available, and spray the shaded areas with creosoted pine sap. Breeding near small streams may be prevented by the use of tide gates across the streams. These will permit the fresh water to flow during low tides, but will keep the high tides from making an entrance. The bureau says that the use of re- pellents on the skin, or on screens, has not proven altogether satisfac- tory. Ordinary kerosene applied to window and door screens does, how- ever, help to keep the midges away for one night. Pine oil used in the same way is even better. Keep lights unlit in bed rooms as much as pos- sible, 50 as not to tempt the gay young bugs. Oil of pine or oil of camphor on the skin will do something to- ward fending the biters off for an hour or so. Glycerine may be applied to exposed surfaces, such as the neck, fcae and arms, which serves as a mechanical barrier against the blood suckers. However, one must be pre- pared to sacrifice make-up and charming appearance in favor of com- fort! One thing that I did discover for myself was that the “bug lights” put out by several New York firms for outdoor use, are wonderfully effective against nearly all the bugs, including the midges, while one is sitting in the open. These are equipped with a powerful bulb, which is surrounded by vertical wires, each one carrying a small charge of electricity. There is a pan fastened to the bottom and the lamps are made to hang from the porch roof or a standard on the terrace, plugged into the nearest elec- trical outlet. The bugs, attracted by the lights, blunder against the wires and are instantly electrocuted. charge is not strong enough to do more than tingle the fingers of a hu- man being—but it's plenty atrong enough for the bugs! And these lights have really proved a relief and joy to us since we “climbed the moun- tain” for the Summer. As far as I have been able to discover they are not yet on sale in Washington, but I hope that they soon will be—they are too good to miss! And that is the story of midges. And a mighty exasperating and dis- tracting subject they are, too! Dix Says Do Not Marry Without Love, Simply to Keep Youthful Promise. EAR DOROTHY DIX—I am a young man, just graduated from college and beginning my medical studies. When I was a boy of 18 I had a love affair with a girl of the same age. I still like the girl and she says she loves me, but she does not fit into the pic- ture of the woman I want for a wife some time. She has no social back- ground. She has little education. She is stubborn and high-tempered and cannot cook. Now what shall I do? Shall I tell the girl that I have no intention of ever marrying her? Am I in honor bound to marry her? R. C. Answer—There are matters that are between a man and his own soul, and he is the only one who has the right to chart his course of action. This is one of them. But when you try to solve your problem, remember that two wrongs do not make a right and that a marriage certificate isn't going to make everything sweet and lovely between you and the girl. Men seem to think that they can atone to a woman for any harm they have done her by marrying her, but in reality a man can do no crueler Wrong to a woman than by marrying her after he has ceased to love her. So if you have a particle of kindness left in your heart for this woman, tell her that you have outgrown her, that you no longer care for her and that you do not wish to marry her. That will give her the chance to make her life over and marry some man who does love her and who wants her. WHEN & man marries a woman from a sense of duty and because he feels that he is in honor obligated to do 80, he pats himself on the back and poses as a martyr, and every one says how noble he is and how sorry they are for him. But in reality the one who suffers most and who most deserves our sympathy is the woman who was wed under compulsion. She is put in the most humiliating position in the world. She knows that her husband considers her a burden and that he hates her because she stands between him and freedom and perhaps some woman he loves. She starves for the affection she never gets. She is lonely with the desperata loneliness of the woman who is shut out from her husband’s confidences, yet she must do the work and make the sacrifices demanded of wifehood. 8o don’t marry this girl unless you love her. Your marrying her won't make her happy. It will deprive her of the chance of having any happiness with & husband who cares for her. No man can be a good husband unless he loves his wife, because in the first place men are imperfectly monogamous, as Mr. Howell once said, and because, in the second place, all the circumstances of a man’s life tend to wean him away from his wife and unless she has some particular charm and glamour for him he is very likely to wander away from her. All of these objections to marrying ® woman without love apply partiew- larly tn your case. You, & cultivated v & man, will have little in common with an uneducated wife. You will bore each other to extinction because she will be as little interested in you as you are in her. As she is high-tempered, you will quarrel incessantly because you will not have the love that will make you patient with her, and she will have a chip on her shoulder thinking you are high-hatting her. And if she is not domestic and a good cook you will feel that she is an all-around failure who does not even have a claim on the gratitude that we have for those who make us comfortable. And, above all other men, a doctor should marry a woman who can help him, who is of his own status so- cially, who can make friends for him. A doctor's wife boosts him up or pulls him down, and you will not love a wife who is a handicap. * ok X x DEAR MISS DIX: To whom should a married man make his insur- ance payable? Before we were married my husband took out some insurance and named his father and mother as beneficiaries, and he réfuses to have the policy changed. Do you not think that he should make it payable to me? It hurts me deeply that he does not love me well enough to do this, for it is I, not his people, who make the sacrifice necessary to keep the insurance paid up. Thinking about this has nearly driven me crazy. What do you think about it? IN A QUANDARY. Answer—As a general thing, a man should make his insurance payable to his wife, for she is the one for whose welfare he is most responsible. Most men realize this, and probably ninety-nine husbands out of a hun- dred do make their wives their bene- ficiaries. . But there may be circumstances in which a husband may be justified in insuring his life for his parents’ benefit in preference to his wife's. In & case where a father and mother are old and helpless, too feeble to support themselves and the wife is young, strong and healthy, trained to some business by which she can earn a good living and as capable of look- ing after herself as a man would be, you can see that a good son would think it more important to protect the old people than the young woman. Perhaps this is the reason your hus- band will not change his policy despite your tears and prayers and nagging, and you are foolish to worry yourself crazy over it. Just have a little pa- tience and understanding of his posi- tion, and no doubt he will make his next policy out to you. ‘The | Comfortable House Frock Large Women Will Enjoy the Smooth Lines of This Model.

IT IS quite a fete to go through the Summer and have your hair come out of it soft and silky. It is, rather, the usual thing to have it look and feel like 50 much straw. But surely no woman wants the “usual” to hape pen to her, particularly not when the crowning glory is involved. The hair needs protection from the burning rays of the sun, just as does the skin. And exposure must be timed . . . limited to 15 minutes at a stretch. just as it is against skin burn. Otherwise the hair will suffer exactly as will the skin. The sun extracts oil, it leaves dryness in its wake, it bleaches and streaks the hair, it robs it of luster, it undermines scalp health. It isn't the easiest thing in thae world to keep the hair soft as silk with two elements like sun and salt water conspiring against you. A little pomade, brilliantine or special pro- tective preparation should be applied to the hair before exposure. And after a few minutes in the sun the hair should be protected by a beach hat or bandana. The bandanma ker chiefs are so colorful that they serve a decorative as well as utilitarian pure pose. Remember that in the case of sunshine, as in the case of most health medicines, a little is enough. Too much becomes harmful. When bathing in salt water, wear a good cap. It is & worth-while ine vestment. And after a swim, if your hair has become wet in spite of a good cap and care, shampoo or at least rinse the hair thoroughly. Salt water will not destroy a permanent wave, but it will leave the hair gummy, sticky, dry, stiff and unmanageable, That is why it should be rinsed or shampooed out of the hair, or if that is impossible at least do wield the brush. More frequent brushing and sham- pooing. brilliantine or pomade are all helpful agents in converting the “straw” to “satin.” After the shampoo you will want to learn coaxing and curling your hair, because obviously it is impose sible to have the hair set after each Swim (unless the swims are few and at least a _week between each two). Learn to press the waves in with a comb, holding one wave with fore. finger and the other with middle finger, or use combs if you are an out-and-out novice. The little curlers are a splen- did thing to have for repair work, If the hair is oily a little water will | help you set the wave if you are doing without shampooing the hair first. For dry hair a thin wave-setting lo- There are splendid lotions on the market that dry quickly, do not leave a residue and are alto- gether satisfactory.

The Old Gardener Says: If cabbage leaves become tat- tered and torn, it is a sure sign that cabbage worms are at work. There are several worms which feed on cabbage, caulifiower, broc- coli, Brussels sprouts, radish, turnip and Kkindred plants. Whether it is the common green cabbage worm, the cabbage loop- er or one of several others, the control measures are the same. Dust with a pyrethrum dust con- taining at least 30 per cent pyrethrum or with a derris dust containing at least five-tenths of one per cent rotenone. Pyrethrum and rotenone sprays are also ef- fective and should be used at the dilutions recommended by the manufacturer. Cabbage worms are active during July and Aug- ust and will do much damage unless control measures are taken. Usually two or three ap- plications of the spray or dust will be effective.
