NEW YORK, SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 19. 1928. 9 Young Man Wants Love, Not Friendship, A Girl Should Play the Game Fairly And Cease Encouraging His Attentions It Is Hard Blow for Mother to Struggle for Children's Upbringing and Then Find Them Thankless Beyond Measure. ADVICE BY HELEN WORTH Dear Helen Worth- have been going out with a young man for the past two years.

During this time we have been very happy in spite of the fact that the idea of love did not enter into our friendship at all. He has known during this time that I wear another's fraternity pin and that I do not confine myself and my company to him alone. Nor have I ever given any sign that I regard him as anything more than a very good friend, for that would be unfair to him as it would be untrue. I do not love him and never could. Of late, however, our friendship has not been as- smooth as it might be.

He gets moody, and at times is really disagreeable, I have tried many times to talk 18 over with him and find out what is the trouble, but he refuses to meet me half way. To accept his invitations, to invite him to my home is no longer a pleasure. Friends and parents advise breaking with him entirely, for they think that he has fallen in love with me, and knowing my attitude they say that to continue to see him is not playing the game. Now, Helen Worth, I cannot believe that he could care for me enough to matter and not tell me perhaps not outright but show it in some way. Yet is his recent disagreeableness just a sign of this? Is it jealousy? I doubt it.

but I ask your impartial opinion of It. If such is the case. to break our friendship is the only solution of the problem, and that is not so easy as it seems. DORA. My dear -Although to you this may be only a friendship, it is quite possible that the young man has fallen in love with you.

If you are sincere in your belief that: you do not care for him and never will, I believe that you should gently, but kindly and firmly, let the friendship languish. "Putting them on the skids" 18 sometimes the best thing to do, and if the young man cannot accept your friendship on that basis alone--why. "he'd best co, and look for a new love." HELEN WORTH. Is Pitiful for Mother to Find Children So Thankless. Dear Helen Worth--The discussion of "Pax" interested me quite a bit.

I will tell you my story and perhaps you will understand. I was left a widow at 23 with small children, the youngest three months old. I was offered many inducements but refused them all, sacrificing, working and going through h- some time to keep a roof over their heads and to keep them out of a home. They grew up, married off one by one, only one of them ever working to help me, and when the last one married I asked her what was to become of me and the home. She told me to get out and.

work or sell it if I could not keep it going. They never know if I have enough to eat, to wear, and never ask. And they never even remember my birthday. It is not because we are not the best of friends. We are.

It is pure selfishness. I have talked with a lot of mothers and found it the same. Times have changed, Helen Worth, and children aren't like they were when you and I were young. I can only thank God I was not fool enough to spend ali my money and that I can still keep a roof over my head with renting part of my rooms and nursing. I wonder if there isn't some one among your readers (father or mother) who has been left the same way I have.

If they would kindly write me a word of comfort or cheer it would be greatly appreciated. DISCOURAGED MOTHER. My dear "Discouraged Mother" Shakespeare tells us that "sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child," and evidently you have learned the truth of this statement. It seems incredible that children should grow up and be so ungrateful. It is said that one unselfish person can make a dozen others become selfish-perhaps that is the underlying reason for your children's neglect.

HELEN WORTH. Spanking Only Method of Discipline at Times. Dear Helen Worth-1 certainly feel sorry for any young girl of 16 who has to undergo the pain of a spanking. There is nothing so humiliating to a girl child as a whipping. She is lucky her mother does it and not her father, as in my case.

From the time I was a young child I remember the bitter humiliation of being uncovered and whipped till I couldn't stand it with a hair brush, a cat or a dog whip. I would do anything to avoid a Whipping, but I always seemed to do the wrong thing and I got about one a day. The last one was when I was 15 and was given in the presence of my uncle, who smiled when it was over and asked me if I wanted some -more. I whip my two little daughters once in awhile, If they are very naughty, but their father never touches them. EDITH.

My dear world moves on and we are learning, but, oh, SOslowly, that man is higher than the brute. To Whip a little girl on her bare skin, with a dog whip and with others present, is an unforgivable crime: No girl of 16 should require spanking, but sometimes it is the only method to reach an obdurate, wouldbe hard-bolled child. More's the pity! HELEN WORTH. Read Letter From "Edith." Dear Helen Worth--In my family there was no discrimination shown in spankings. The girl got the hairbrush, the boy the hair-brush, plus the cat-o'-nine-tails, plus a Mexican horse whip, and that with no clothing on! My father certainly belleved in whipping as a means of enforcing obedience, and my sister and I used to yell and squirm, but to no avail; My sister now has four children of her own.

She whips them all. I have one daughter. I whip her. No doubt "Spanked Flapper" will Farm her daughter with A cat Just Graduate and Fiancee MISS CHARLOTTE M. GUN DERSON MISS ANNE ME CAFFREY Miss McCaffrey, who was graduated in the January class from Erasmus Hall, is the daughter of Mr.

Plans have been completed for the annual dinner dance of the Midtown Supper Club to be held March 17 for Hidden Treasure Revealed by The Eagle In Museum Is Illuminated 'Book of Hours' Embellished in Gold; 14th Century Work Flemish Product Done With Page From Book of Devotions Infinite Skill, Probably by Monks, Who Worked in Absolute Silence in Separate Cells--The 20th Treasure Is Brought to Light. The Eagle's search for hidden treasures at the Brooklyn Museum has revealed this week a rare book. an illuminated 14th Century "Book of Hours." Embellished with gold. as bright as the day it was applied six centuries ago, the little book is as beautiful a specimen of the art of illumination as exists in the world.

It will be placed on exhibition in the rotunda on the third floor of the Museum for a week, beginning today, from 2 until 6 o'clock, and on week-days from 10 until 5. The "Book of Hours" is of Flemish origin and one of a collection of nine such manuscripts, dating from the 14th and 15th centuries. which the Brooklyn Museum is fortunate 'enough to own. Illuminated manuscripts are books or other texts, inscribed by hand and decorated with colors and precious metals, so that literally the pages are illuminated or brightened. Pictures Painted on Pages.

Tiny paintings were sometimes used to further beautify the manuscripts, as in the Museum's "Book of which contains several such miniatures as they are called, done in bright soft blues, reds and grays. with touches of gold. Every page of this valuable manuscript is bordered with a leaf design, each tiny leaf made of gold. A book of this kind was not the handiwork of one man but was produced by several specialists, working under the direction of a leader. The art of illuminating manuscripts was carried on exclusively in the medieval: monasteries.

It does not seem a particularly nice occupation for a father, I must say. Do read the letter from "Edith." and try to grasp woman's reaction on this very subject.

HELEN WORTH. Are You Sure Your Motive Is Not Revenge? Dear Helen Worth--You are to be complimented on your wise and pithy advice to "Spanked Flapper," and that young lady may feel fortunate that her mother was inspired by your column to exercise her parental authority for the good of her daughter. I was allowed to do as I pleased until I was almost 20, my mother having outside duties and little time to attend to me. However, one day my two younger sisters, to settle a grudge, gave her a lurid account of my comings and goings. This resulted in a long lecture, at the end of which I was ordered to remove my clothes and was thoroughly spanked with a hairbrush.

My mother was very powerful and the pain and humiliation were potent checks to me whenever tempted to indulge in further dissipations. Mother has gone now and I conaider it my duty to place my sisters over my knees for a vigorous ping with the "cat" when I think they need correction. Now, Helen Worth, they take the same attitude as "Spanked but in opinion am I not taking the "proper course in subiecting them to the punishment and which I know to be efficacious? ELIZABETH.

(We are all so apt to confuse issues and to deceive ourselves regarding cur motives!) Now, this is what I think about spanking, hitting. slapping, whipping, striking, or in any way physically hurting children: Even a very young person should not be touched unless every other method of punishment has been given A fair trial and found wanting.

Then, and then only, should resort be made to corporal punishment. This holds true of children of A larger growth, only in greater mensure. For, if the ground work has been properly laid, only an occasional remonstrance should be needed. Carefully reared children, by the time they are 12, rarely punishment. If they misbehave constantly, then it's almost a certainty that the parents have failed in their earlier years.

Try to give to your sisters love, sympathy and understanding rather than frequent "strapping with a cat." (Just writing those words makes me shudder.)

THE SHAMPOO. It is not the occasional visit to a beauty parlor that keeps youthful and pretty, but it is the reguiar care that she bestows 011 self-improvement in her own home. The little, commonplace details of the toilet, like washing the face, manicuring the hands and brushing the hair, are more important in the long run than professional treatments taken now and then. The thoroughness and intelligence with which these simple beauty rites are performed are of greater moment than most women realize.

This is particularly true of the care of the hair. The average girl or woman washes her hair twice a month. Others wash theirs oftener. The shampoo is, therefore, an important part of milady's beauty program and she should learn what i3 the best method to use. Sometimes she is not so careful as she should COLER Miss Fannie Schlessel, daughter of Mr.

One my readers reports that she has been using a hard-water washing soap for her shampoo with the result that her hair has become faded and brittle. This sort of soap is good for washing clothes, but not for the bair, as it contains too much borax. A little borax, however, is helpful, as it ens hard water and makes the hair fluffy. It is a good pian to make your own shampoo soap so that you may know that it is pure. The simplest kind of shampoo may be made by grating some Castile, soap and melting it to a liquid in hot water.

A nutmeg grater is handy to use for reducing a dry cake of soap to powder. of course, never rub a cake of soap on your hair; always ux a liquid soap for the shampoo. A special shampoo mixture that 1s also a tonic for scanty, oily hair may be made of the following ingredients; One-quarter pound Castile soap powdered. one-half teaspoonful borax, one-quarter ounce sal tartar; eighth ounce tincture cantharides, one-eighth ounce carbonated ammonia. one-half cup bay rum, three quarts boiling water.

If your water supply is hard, catca rain water for the purpose or use boiled or distilled water.

This will prevent the formation of sticky soap curd on the hair. Another way to get rid of this curd is to use the juice of half a lemon in the rinsing water. Before using the lemon, however, I wash off all the soap you can. Rinse your hair again in clear water after using the lemon. Dey the hair by rubbing it between warmed towels or shake it in the sun.
