LOSS OF FRIEND
BRINGS LETTER TO
VIRGINIA LEE
HEART THROB SPECIALIST
HANDS OUT ADVICE
TO YOUNG
By VIRGINIA LEE
I HAVE just lest a very dear young
friend who was killed in an auto ac
cident. His loss seems to me not only
almost unbearable for his family who
rolled upon him and needed him and
his friends who loved him, but to the
world. He was so gay and friendly,
so helpful and reliable.
The other day I had a small prob
lem to solve and I found myself won
dering what Dick would have thought
about it—and he was years younger
than I.
He was handsome and clever, a good
worker and a good sport In play. But
his greatest virtue, as I think of him,
was his zest for life and enjoyment
of everything he did and every place
he went. He went around the world
as an “able seaman,” and what a gay
adventure that was. He worked to
put himself through school and at the
same time helped a married sister—
and what fun he had at doing those
things. Children liked him, and those
his own age and older people. I do
not know whether he had a very well
defined philosophy of life, but think
he had and that it must have been to
take all things philosophically—with
out too much emotion —and enjoy
them.
In the comparatively few years of
his life—he was 27—he influenced
more people for good than many men
and women twice his age. The world
is poorer for his going, but how much
richer for his having lived —even such
a few short years!
♦ ♦ *
JAY G.: You and the girl friend
have all my sympathy, Jay. It is a
sad situation, and you are not the
only ones who are suffering from it.
Isn’t there some hope that your sis
ters will be able to take over the fami
ly burden before long, and cannot
your mother do something to earn a
living, and so relieve you?
Nothing is gained by lasing self
control. Get that into your head very
firmly. Continue seeing the girl and
fill your mind wth ether thngs—hopes
for the future when you wll have
your own home together—and plans
for that and the times you spend to
gether.
It is not merely a saying that“it’s
a long lane that has no turning” It
is true, and the lane will turn for you
some day—and I hope soon.
BOOTS: As you love this boy and
he cares for you. why wreck both your
lives by being “stubborn”? Wiry not
write him a note and tell him how
you feel and ask him if he still feels
“that way” about you, to come sack
and try it over again. Everyone has
some faults, and you will just have
to keep on trying until you overcome
yours.

Off-the-Face Hats Demand
Almost Perfect Hairlines
By GLADYS GLAD
“America’s Most Famous Beauty”
Bette Davis, that award-winning
young screen star, who is renowned
for being just one jump ahead of the
current fashions, is sporting one of
those off-the-faca bonnets. And
Bette looks stunning in it, as you can
see. However, she is one girl who can
get away with such hats, for Bette
has a very lovely hairline, and can
consequently reveal it without its
proving in any way detrimental to
her appearance.
There are some girls, however, who
certainly should not feel too happy
about the new vogue for off-the-face
hats. For. unless the hairline is per
fect, even the most expensive of Paris
cheapeaux looks like a bajgain base
ment odel. And in my opinion,
there's nothing quite so distressing as
a dirty hairline. Yet one frequently
sees grimy hairlines on otherwise im
maculate women.
The reason for it is that, because
of the activity of the oil and perspi

Dartkies of oowder from frequent

tenaciously. And as a result, the
powder, grime and oil form a pasty
border of discoloration.
This, of course, would not be ap

properly. But many girls are so
afraid of getting soap into their
treses, that they fail to remove the
grimy accumulations, and leave a
most distressing border of dirt Be

MARY PICKFORD IN “PARTIES AT PICKFAIR’’
Train Tot
To Mind,
Says Myers
PSYCHOLOGIST PLEADS
WITH PARENTS TO
TEACH RESTRAINT
By GARRY C. MYERS, PH. D.
Head Department Parent Education
Cleveland College, Western
Reserve University
As those who have followed this
column have observed, I have for
years pleaded with parents to train
their children while very young to
mind. Rarely do I make a public ad
dress without emphasizing the need
of teaching the child the unambigu
ous meaning of “No” before he is
two or three —for safety, regard for
the rights of others, and respect for
authority. How? By means of the
good old-fashioned spank selectively
employed.
Sometimes, however, I am a little
cramped—but never in this column.
For example, at a luncheon meeting
before representative leaders in re
ligious education, of the Greater New
York Federation of Churches, March
28, I had in my prepared speech the
following, which, by request, was al
most entirely omitted from my ac
tual speech:
“What about' the bedlam in some
Sunday schools? Seme children
might profit more, spiritually and
morally, out on a good playground
than in a Sunday school where they
behave as hoodlums. Rushing into
the assembly room like wild cattle,
knocking ever chairs, trampling upon
song books or even Bibles, there
roughnecks from eight to twelve are
hardly gaining much that’s good. And
often the leaders of the roughnecks
are splinters from the pillars of the
church.
“Better leadership in Sunday
schools made attractive to children
should help some. But in spite of
the best leadership and methods, this
problem won’t be solved until parents
face about and cease following the
prophets of no restraint of children
at home. Pitifully true it is that
parents who are pillar sos the church,
and others of the intelligentsia, have
been among the first to accept the
, prevailing doctrine of letting little
. children do about as they please.
Home Restraint Lacking.
“If parent education is to be most
, effective in cur churches or else
where it will have to include what it
' now lacks, reasonable home restraints
in the early years of the child. Most
parent-education programs the coun
try over net only fail to emphasize
restraint;, but they generally are
warning parents against restraining
their children.”
On the following day I spoke over
the radio network on the American
Schools’ program of the National
. Education Association, when I also
avoided the word spank. But I did
i say:
I "I believe the leading single cause
of increasing vandalism and crime
especially in youth, is this doctrine
of no restraint, that those, therefore,
who have been deliberately spread
ing this doctrine have contributed
! mightily to the prevalence of crime.’”
! “Not in the police and courts of
justice can we put our greatest hope
for checking crime, nor even in our
schools, though they are doing a
comparatively good job, but in par
ents who themselve s have proved
I good citizens, provided they wll face
i about and train their children in the
I nursery in the alphabet of inhbii
tions.”
