a bit of nap between thumb and fore
finger and try to lift the blanket.
If it’s a fine blanket tne well-anchored
nap will support the weight of the
entire blanket.

Brilliant
Youth Is
Lonesome
BOY IS SELF-CONSCIOUS
AND HE CAN’T MAKE
FRIENDS
By GARRY C. MYERS, PH. D.
Heed Department Parent Education
Cleveland College, Western
Keter ve «•’..!-ersity
“DEAR SIR. I u: writing you in
regard to a grown son who is ex
tremely self-conscious. His baby-hood
days, up to the ago of four and one
half years, were spent in a very small
town. We did not live near any small
children, so, unfortunately, he had
to play alone most of the time.
* After we mere J away and he had
children to play what it seemed to
take a long time for him to get ac
acquainted with them, and it has been
that way all through his life.
“At 16 years of age he was grad
uated from high scnool and had the
highest grades ever made In that
school. After completing high school
we wanted to send him to college, but
he said, ‘No, I cannot go because I
cannot take part in the social ac
tivities there, Just cannot meet peo
ple and talk to them.’
“He is a good worker, and gets
along fairly well if he has a job that
keeps him busy every minute of the
day. But if part of the time he has
nothing to do, and there are people
around that he has to talk to, then
he thinks he cannot do that kind of
work.
“Last winter he seemed to get hold
of himself and put up a hard fight
. . . and he certainly did make a
wonderful change, all through the
winter and spring he was not the
same person. He was friendly with
everyone, enjoyed having people in
our home, and talked a lot; in fact,
had almost gone to the opposite ex
treme in talking.
Slips Back Again
“He was not working at that time,
but soon got a Job ... He had not
been working long when I noticed
that he was slipping back into the
same old rut again. He does not have
anything to talk about or does not
care to associate with his friends any
more.
“He is always wanting to give up
his work because he cannot stand
there and have people look at him all
the time. We keep insisting that he
stay with it. . . .
"Are there any good books on how
to overcome self-consciousness, and
where could I get them?
“Do you think there would be any
chance for him to overcome this
again?”
Many books designed to help the
sclf-conscious person do him more
narm than good, .since they give so
many types of bad symptoms and in
elude so many pathological cases that
the reader Is inclined to add more
worries and self-condemnations to
those he already has. Recently I wrote
a hopeful little book called, “Learn
to Be Likeable”. I think you can
rind It in your public library. If not,
write me and let me tell you where
you can get it. You might also gain
some suggestions for helping him from
OLD-TIME CURLERS
MAKE SOFT CURLS
By GLADYS GLAD
“America’s Most Famous Beauty”
[ Do you realize that not so very
long ago the good old curling iron
was standard equipment in almost
> every woman’s bureau drawer? Won
der how many of you still use one?
First it was the kind you heated over
the coal or wood fire, and later over
the gas, and finally tne electric iron—
which was a boon to womankind.
It is surprising how completely the
! curling iron has gone out of general
use in the home. And a good thing,
too, say I, for it did the nair no
good. The “consummation devoutly
1 to be wished” in hair curling is a
- natural looking wave simulating
i curly hair. And there is a better and
■ safer method of gaining curls and
I maves than by the manipulation of a
I hot iron on your crowning glory.
[ So, if you desire ringlet ends, don’t
do what many ill-advised or hasty
[ damsels do, and grab the old curling
( iron—if you still have one in your
home —and bake your hair ends into
ringlets. Because the probability is
that kinkiness, rather than softly
curled ends, will result, and you may
’ end with burned or split ends into
■ the bargain.
Kid Curlers Best
1 To turn those hair ends up into
'• ringlets, I know of nothing better
I tuat the average amateur can use
• than the old-fashioned kid curlers
• that were commonly employed in
granny's heyday. These kid curlers
i come in varying sizes, and can be
, purchased in most department stores.
> To use these curlers properly, first
i brush your hair vigorously with a
’ flexible-bristled brush. Then sepa
rate the hair ends into rather small
; strands, and moisten each of them
with a bit of water or waving fluid.
Next, tafee one strand at a time and
place a kid or aluminum curler at
’ the extreme end of it. be sure you
• get it right at the end, else kinki
s n?ss may result. Then carefully twist
i the curler around so that the hair
. winds smoothly about it. When t«e
i desired length of hair has been curl
ed, fasten the aufler, so "that it
will remain securely in place. Re
peat this process with the remaining
strands, making as many curls as
you desire.
Tnese curlers should be permitted
to remain in the hair for two or
; three hours, at least, although this
varies with the texture and condi
tion of the hair. The hair must be
allowed to dry thoroughly, in any
case. And when the curlers are then
removed, the strands should be
combed around the index finger, so
1 that the ringlet formation is retained.
ANSWERS TO QUERIES
Vinegar Rinse
Teresa: The vinegar rinse is a
I softening rinse and helps to bring
out lovely highlishts in the hair. This
rinse should be composed of half a
i glass of vinegar and a pint of clear
water.

YOUTHFUL PILOT
SETS NEW MARK
FOR LIGHT CRAFT
COHiUMBUS, Ohio, May 7 (TP).—
Bob Buck, young New Jersey flier,
says he’s out for a new aviation rec
ord, now that he’s smashed the world
distance mark for light planes.
Buck and his cousin, Lee Bellin
grath, piloted a smll plane more
than 2,000 miles from Burbank, Cal.,
to Columbus, to beat the old 1,800-
mile distance record set by two
French fliers in 1930. The landing
at Columbus was made without any
damage to the ship, although Buck
had dropped his landing gear after
the take-off at Burkanandwas forc
ed to bring the ship down in a bum
py, sliding stop.
The 22-yer-old flier is expected to
stay in Columbus until the landing
gear arrives from California. Then,
he said, he will return to his home at
Westfield, N. J.
“Some time this summer,” Buck
announced, “I’m going to try for a
new record for light planes on a
2,000-kilometer course. If I’m lucky
in that try, Lee and I will hunt up
another record to break.”

Styles Last
Into New
Season
By LISBETH
How do you choose your frocks?
Do ycu pick ’em because they are
smart at the moment, without »
thought of whether the style will be
good a couple of months from now?
Now here are three little frocks
that I will guarantee will be smart all
summer and that you will dig out'
of the wrappings next year and heave
a sigh of relief that you have some
thing to wear until you have a chance
to see what you want.
The first, left, worn by Marsha
Hunt, screen player, is for aftemon.
It is a crepe in persimmon red with
narrow pleats across the front of the
skirt, and a hip-length blouse that
reflects the pleated treatment of the
skirt. The sleeves are three-quarters
length and full, but are drawn into
wrist. This pique ,is also used for a
gilet or vest down the front. A clus
ter of lacquered flowers at the neck
line carries out the white acoent. It’s
a good choice for wear now, occasion
ally all summer, and I bet you’ll be
wearing it again when the fall weath
er sets in.
Simple, But “Good"
A simple little frock with good
lines, like the one shown certer and
worn by Barbara Stanwyck, is a
“thing of beauty and a joy forever,”
It’s a sports model of white silk crepe
printed with a tiny figure in brown
and green, and is made with a double
breasted effect with tiny brown but-”
tons set far apart in a double iW,
five to a row, an dmatched by the
two buttons on the self-material belt,
making six in all. A brown silk as
cot tucked into the neck of the dress,
brown glovxs and a white linen hat
and spes complete a very satisfactory
ensemble.
If you like wool —and it now is good
for all year ’round—you will choose
the very lightweight wool frock shown
right and worn by Joy Hodges, also
a screen player. This dress is a two
piece. The sleeves are cut in one
piece, and are trimmed with several "
rows of stitching in tile color. The
collarless neckline also uses this
trimming feature as do belt and pock
eet. Buttons and buckle of wood
painted a matching tile add to tha
bright contrasting note.
She Works
Too Hard,
Is “Blue”
HER HOME HAS NO CON.
VENIENCES, LIFE NO
FUN
By VIRGINIA LEE
Women who live in towns and
cities and have what the world calls
•‘modem conveniences,” have no
idea how their sisters way out in the
country live. Os course, there are
farmer’s wives, too, who have their
work made easier for them; but I
wonder sometimes how those manage
wo have no conveniences in their
homes and have to help in fields and
about the barn as well as do all the
housework by hand and bear and
take care of the children.
Most of these women do it cheer
fully too, helping their husbands,
never complaining. But when the
husband is unfair, when he does not
realize hew overworked his wife is
and try to help and lighten her work
all he can, it is dreadful.
Just Blue writes that she has been
married seven years, has a little girl
five years old. She lives in a house
that has no conveniences at all, not
even a sink, carpets on the floor or
comfortable chairs to sit in. She
does the work of the house, cleans
out the chicken houses and works in'
the field. She hardly ever goes any.
where for a little recreation, and.
doesn’t know what to do.
It is hard to tell you how to better
your situation, Just Blue. You prob
ably don’t want to leave your hus
band, take your little girl and go to
a town to try to make a living for
her and yourself.
Even if it is poor and uncomfort
able, your place is still home to you
and the little girl, and. you do not
say your husband is unkind, only in
not seeing that you are doing more
than your share of the work and not
getting anything but a bare -living
out of it.. You are young enough -to
want at least a little fun>and he
takes his drinking with his relatives.
The only two solutions I see .are
tor you to pick up and leave, or to
bear things as patiently as possible
until you “get a break," meaning
that sometime somethng will happen
that will make it possible for you to
change. You are overworked and too
tired to see any hopeful side to your
