BLONDIE wants to know. She is in love with a very good looking boy, and he is devoted and tells her that as soon as he is ad vanced in his job they will be married. But, she writes, when they are at the beach he always admires other girls, and one time recently when they were riding on a bus he insisted upon changing his seat so that he could sit next to some strange girls and "kept watching them all the way.” She tried to act as if she didn’t notice that the girls liked him, too, for “all the girls fall for him," she says, but she ‘‘would have felt better if I could have run away and cried,” she confesses. She wonders if he does this because his boy friends ad mire her and tell him he is lucky, or “just what it is?” She is sure he loves her. “One time he made me angry. He admired a girl and I said, ‘Well, why don’t you ask her for a date?’ He said ‘I am only interested in one girl, and that is you.’ ” Then I think if I were you, Blondie, I would bury this quite natural re sentment down deep in my heart and try tc forget it. It is as natural for a man to be interested in attractive women as it is for him to breathe. He means nothing by it. In the of your boy friend, lie is probab’y art conceited fnd likes to be admired by the opposite sex and so pUy.; up t> any attractive females who may be in his vicin ty. It flatters his ego. It is foolish, I admit, and he probably would be very hurt and angry if you paid undue attention to an unusually good looking can you might chance to see while with him.

HOW TIMES ARE ALTERED FOR WOMEN DRESS AND ACTIVITIES ARE MORE HEALTHFUL, QUOTES DOCTOR By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D. I am old enough to remember when the first women golfers in our city made their first round. Dire conse quences were predicted by the elder generation, for that flaunt in the face of Nature. The girls were ruining their health. The female body was not made for that sort of thing. Croquet was quite strenuous enough for any woman. And It is a wonder how they ever got around the course with the clothes they wore. Stiff skirts to their ankles, and a dozen petticoats, starch ed shirtwaists with collars and cuffs, and sailor hats riddled with hatpins. There may be a few left who think there is something wrong with the way girls are allowed to dress and run and swim and play tennis and golf and everything else in this day and age, but they must be very few because the evidence Is too over whelming that this has made for a stronger generation. “Girls nowadays expose their legs and smoking and overtaxing their strength at athletics,* grunts the old fogy. “No wonder they have nervous breakdowns. They didn’t have such things in my day.’’ Oh! didn’t they? Let’s look at the evidence. Here is an excerpt from a medical magazine of the seventies: “If we compare the condition of women of refined society, where we rarely find one who does not suffer from headache, backache, pain or dis comfort of some kind, with the work ing peasants of the same latitude, we can with difficulty believe that they sprang from the same stem.’’ Cause of Poor Health? And the cause of the bad health of our grandmothers? Dr. Mary Hallo well, in 1884, had this to say: "We have only to look at a fash ionably dressed woman to see how she offends the laws of physics and physiology. Nature says that the feet should rest firmly and flatly upon the ground. Fashion cramps them into ridiculously small shoes, the heels of which are so situated as to mak? the weakest part of the foot bear all the weight of the body. And again, they are so high as to throw the body out of equilibrium when she walks, and ST. PAUL’S CHURCH CIRCLE HOLD SPEND-THE-DAY PARTY TOMORROW Mrs. J. C. Salter and Miss Christie Goerz will be hostess tomorrow with a spend-the-day party at their cottage at Savannah Beach, to the members of circle No. 3 of St. Paul’s Lutheran church.

LISBETH Graceful long, floating lines of airy fabric are the ideal for summer for mal wear. Nothing tailored or man nish about them, nothing to hint that women drive automobiles, stride across golf courses, swim as expertly as men, rival their brothers, in fact, in every field of sport. On the contrary, “the ladies" ap pear as sweet, clinging things, breath ing perfume like flowers and rival ing them in beauty of color and line.

You remember the story of the beautiful youth Nar cissus, who, seeing his own face re flected in the water, failed to recog nize it as his, but thought it was a lovely damsel, and gazing at her day after day. but never reaching her, he at last fell into the water and was drowned. The story tells that a lovely flower grew up on the bank of the stream which his friends called nar cissus. after him. It was not until 1673 that the mak ing of mirrors was introduced Into England. It is said that before that, however, one was brought from Eu rope and given to Queen Elizabeth, and that until she grew old she de lighted to look at herself in it. When lines of age developed in her face, however, she had her mirror put away and would no longer look int* it. Mirror Beauty Aid Elizabeth made a sad mistake In banishing her mirror according to consequently to weaken and impair the spine, and to so change the cen ter of gravity in the body as to pro duce dislocation of the pelvic viscera. "But the article of dress which is the greatest source of the ill health of women is that which causes pres sure about te middle of the body, re ducing the waist measure from three to fifteen inches. "Another cause of poor health in women is the neglect of exercise and physical development.

This dress also has a long cape of the same ma terial, which is draped across her shoulders. Not too sweetly simple are these two gowns, but they combine enough sophistication with simplicity to en hance the charm of th wearer*. Dresses are being made to fit ths form more closely in the latest show ings. Fitted contours, they are called, our modem standards. Elderly wo men today, as well as young and beautiful ones, use them, and by their help see that their clothes are be coming, their hair appropriately coif ed, their figures symmetrical. Every day in the year a woman should look in her mirror—and a full length one at that, if possible. She can spot figure flaws in it and do something about them. She need never go out in public with a skirt that is unbecomingly tight, with a slip that hangs an inch or two below her dress, with runs in her stockings, runover heels on her shoes, or any of the other little things that spoil the effect of perfect grooming. Get into the habit of giving yourself a last minute look before you leave the house for school, business, shop ping or for the smartest and most formal of events. Train your daugh ters to do likewise. If you haven’t a full-length mirror, you can see the tep part of yourself in a small one that hangs on the wall by standing close to it. and then you can stand afar off and get the rest of the pic ture. more who have never engaged In any exercise which calls forth the ex ercise of other muscles than those employed in the quietest locomotion. "Let us imagine a boy and girl about the same age, say six years, under the fame home influence. The little girl must not romp through the green fields, fish or wade in the brook during the summer; she will ruin her clothing, become sunburnt and freckled, and as for taking off her shoes and stockings to paddle in the brook—oh, horrors! could any fashionable mother hear of the propo sition without a shock t her nerves?” and there are many little shirrings and darts under the bust, with the curved upward empire line. Diagonals and surplices are being used and look new again after so much center clos ing. Many of these surplices are high and swing sharply over to under the arm, resembling a youthful Chinese kimono. The result is very young and smart.- ' " ' ", Another new thing in fall fashions is the hemline band on evening frocks. This has been used to some extent, you will recall, but it is being done more extensively and very effectively. Bands of bright color, usually In con trast, in a pattmed fabri , an em broidered or beaded effect, gives an almost Oriental effect; and dark fur on light satin is very alluring.

A fact which very many conscien tious parents overlook is that, no mat ter how desirable the goal, we may do more harm than to miss that goal in our zeal to arrive at it. Often we miss It anyway and do all the harm also. It is possible to miss the goal and lose the ohild. Always we are faced with very pratical problems.

What would you have advised this mother? “Dear Mr. Myers; We are very much concerned about our daughter, and your article today prompted me to write to you. She is NOT a child, but you may be able to help. She was 18 last January and a freshman in the university. We have always held for the truth, and so far as we know, until her second year In high school*, she was truthful to us. “She is an only child, good looking, good personality, and very good natur ed. We had no trouble with her up to the last half of her second year In high school. Then she began to lie, He and lie! "When I was sure of it, I tried to talk to her and make her see how bad she was making all of us feel, and what her friends would think of her If they could not depend on what she said, but to no avail. She had started to smoke, and she knew we never would have it and I never caught her, so could not prove it, and although I found cigarettes and matches hid, they belonged to this and that boy.

But after she got out she went on at it worse than ever. “She was home Sunday and just saturated with the fumes ... The doctor said try this, ‘Tell her she will have to stay away from her par ents until she can come across clean.’ and I did ... The doctor is very much disgusted with her ...

MANY GARDEN lovers have Bos ton Ferns in their homes which they cherish and carefully tend. Such folios will be delighted to learn that they can propagate new ferns by rooting the runners from the Boston Fern into another pot, as shown in the above Garden-Graph. The Boston Fern, unlike its par ent, the Sword Fern, is sterile and bears no spores. Spores are the equil alent with most ferns of seeds. In place of spores the Boston Fern does throw off many "runners” or thread like appendages, above ground from the main rootstock. By carefully root ing these runners In another pot plac ed alongside the parents fern, many new ferns can be reproduced.
