Attractive Shoulders An Aid to Beauty The woman who is anxious to look particularly well in evening clothes should give her back, shoulders and arms a daily beauty treatment. She cant care for them in haphazard manner day after day, give them a thorough going over the night of a party and expect to look as expertly groomed as the girl who uses bath brush and body lotions every night of her life. A long handled bath brush Is un doubtedly the greatest boon to back and shoulder beauty. You should use it each time you take a bath, whether tub or shower.

Get one with fairly flexible bristles that won't scratch tender skin, but which are strong enough to stimulate circulation and cleanse the pores. Always rinse carefully. When you have finished your bath and dried with a rough towel (also good for circulation), apply a body oil or lotion to shoulders, arms and back. There are excellent ones on the market today and a large bottle lasts skmg time. If, from time to time, small blem ishes appear on your back, better pay stricter attention to your diet.

Maybe you're eating too many sweets and fats. Perhaps you aren't drinking enough water or getting the right amount of exercise. Try to regulate your health habits for a few weeks. Then, if the pimples still show, see a doctor. 101 Year Old Woman Sends Gift to Quints CALLBNDER, Ont, Dec.

They do not have the little concealments adults do, or at least not until they are driven to it." What things cause these subterfuges bear looking into.

Let us suppose that little John is the youngest of three childern; counting his parents, that makes five. Mother, like most distracted people, finds a certain relief in fault finding. She has no patience with the baby's behavior. He wants something. It is the carving knife.

She slams it in the drawer and gives him a box on the ears. He cries. "Shut up." she orders, and he wanders into another room and yells. He keeps It up until she spanks him. Half a dozen times a day this is re peated; not the carving knife episode, but everything from the gravy on the carpet to hammering on the piano.

Hand Is Only Contact There seems to be no point of con tact between them at all but her hand, and that caresses him only when she is moved by sudden motherly waves when her own nerves are at peace. Dad is still less perdlctable. He comes home at night in one or the other of his many moods. Sometimes he is Jolly. Again he delights in bringing Johnny up to the point of expectancy only to disappoint him.

Common among men and very heartless. Occasionally he rouses the little boy's faith. Which makes it all the worse because it makes the next sudden relapse all the harder to bear. Withdraws From Father Here, too, Johnny begins to feel alone. After a while he retreats into himself and the contacts with his father cease so far as the boy is concerned.

He doesn't try to talk to him. He never takes a toy to be fixed. He doesn't climb up on his knee. He doesn't run to meet him. From then on it is merely a matter of orders and obedience.

Sally is six. She is a selfish little girl. And besides she has the usual six year old impatience with her small brother. Her shrill little voice gets exercise by continually whining. "Mother, make Johnny stop." "Get out of here." "Don't you touch that." No companionship here.

More with darwal into himself. Lionel, aged ten, Is a bora tease. He gets his manliness up by making fun of his brother. He hisses him at times and roughhouses him in various ways, jphny is downright afraid of Lionel. He learns to conceal his real sell, to fib.

to oretend and find comfort in baby escapes. And of course he finds relief in being very naughty indeed. Condition Is common I would not say that this Is an av earge home or family, but were the walls to be rolled back we might find it to be a more common composite of affairs than Is generally thought possible. While it is true that "the baby" is often the pet and more indulged than the other children, it is also true that he has more adjust ments to make toward family temperament than the rest and ones he is too young to make, johnny may be an only child, or he may come from a larger family, but It goes to show why children lose their directness.

Ill i tell you that." Gloria arrived at the Vanderbilt house on East 72nd street, off Fifth Avenue, around 9 o'clock in a Whitney limousine. She hurried to the door. A butler had it open for her the minute the automobile stopped at the curb. There were holly wreaths in all the windows. The twinkling lights of a Christmas tree could be seen inside.

At 10 o'clock Mrs. Vanderbilt, Lady Furness and the two children left the bouse, got into another limouslne sped' down Fifth Avenue to the St. Francis church on 31st Street and attended mass. St. Francis is a church of Franciscan monks.
