ner in which it is served; and thus,
by the power of suggestion (because
it LOOKS. good) its value is enhanced and it TASTES BETTER!
MEN EXPECT IT

In other words, the movies, magazines, and closer personal contact
with women who put accent on
FEMININITY has taught.. Negro
men to expect and:demand it.

Of course, your height and stature
govern the extent to which you may
advantageously indulge your ~femfininity~ in the selection of clothes?~
but your manner, coiffure, -manicure, carriage, etc., as well as the
use of ~feminine~ colors, all help to
create the optical illusion.

The sensory illusion is effected by
a soft, well modulated (unaffected)
voice, religious use of depilatories
and deodorants, a gentle touch) and
the skillful use of perfume... (What
smells better than a cake, baking?)

Periurfie brings to mind the story
of a none-too-attractive old maid
who was in love with a handsome
young man. After resorting to Vooaoo practitioners: to ~fix~~? him into
loving her, to no avail, the frustrated old-timer bought some ~charm~
perfUme with which to capture him.
And it worked! She got her man...
PERFUME DID TRICK

Here~s the catch: The young man
had previously been in love with a
girl who used the same kind of per
fume, and the association of ideas

F i
aroused by the perfume bound him
to the older woman.

Moral: Perfume DOES create
personality, (individuality). Some
times it\leaves a more vivid SENSE
impression that personal appearance! Therefore, it behdoves any
would-be siren to discover the perfume that best expresses her personaljty, and stick to it. (By the
way; popular varieties sold-in drug
and department stores have just as
much, jf not more, ire se quality as the Voodoo brands

A word to the wine" ~Don't let
your head rule your heart too much.
No matter if the man of your choice
is a mental giant or a stunted oaf,
his primary interest in you is the
fact that you are a woman~soft,
sweet and sincere~not a hail-fellow-well-met~bar-fly who. carries
her liquor like a ~gentlemén~, discusses war and politics ~with the
gusto of the stump-knocker, and
cusses better than he!

Maybe it~s the ape instinct in ~em,
or the will to power, but generally
men want women to be as different from them as. possible. If they

~can~t- look ~up~ to them, they con
trive to look ~down~ on them., (And
the women~s brains have nothing
whatever to do with it!)

So-0-0-o0-o0-, if you would be
charming, be FEMININE. Be generous with your ICING, no matter
what color of cake you are.

| GET MORE OUT OF LIFE

By IDA BAILEY ALLEN

TEN MEN AND THE
THANKSGIVING DINNER
THERE~S no getting around it~
eating~s fun; or it should be. If
it is not, there~s always a reason.
Perhaps the company is uncongenial, the menu uninspired or the
food poorly -coked. I decided to
interview ten men about this, eaeh
une separately. They all agreed
that enjoying good food is a grand
way to get miore out of life~unless
the meal leaves that over stuffed
feeling, ~the way one feels after

At this all of the ten became shockingly vocal! It seemed they did not
approve of most Thanksgiving Dingiers because they were too big!
So I asked each man to plan a
menu that would appeal to him.
The majority wanted oysters
first, next a thick soup. (I didn~t
approve of this, but they were adamant, so that~s that). With the
turkey they wanted sausage or
chestnut stuffing and gravy, mashed potatoes (to. put the gravy on,)
and boiled onions; for trimmings,
cranberry sauce and celery, and no
pie for dessert! No pie? I was
startled. But they said, ~Let~s have
Sumpkin pie for supper when ~we
Yave room Icft to enjoy it and let~ss
nave the saiai then, too.~ ~But
what do yo: v -nt fer dessert?~ I
wked. What co.cu suppose they

Dear Miss Leaf:

I have been reading your co.umn
a long time and I think it is very
interesting,

This is my problem: I have been
going with a boy six or eight
months but lately he has been going to see another girl. He says
he still likes me but he does not
show it the way he is doing.

i am sixteen years old, Do you
think he likes~ me or is he just
playing me?

GERT

At sweet sixteen, you should not
be off the deep end about any
fe~low and if he is your age, he is
acting it. You shculd fiot be so
very interested in him that you
cannot take the. fact that he does
like another girl, Don~t get settled minded, you have too many
years in front-of you. If you are
permitted to receive company, haye
more than one friend, so that you
will not care if the boys visit other girls, Of course, he likes you
he likes. other nice

little girls,

Thanks to Miss Lawson for her
sentiment.

Claire Tilden proves that an attractive appearance depends merely
upon the proper lines and proportions; that you need sacrifice nothing in style for size. The popular

goes straight across in back ~ but
forms two graceful and very slenderizing curves in front. Their
shape is repeated in the yokes at

a collar-like band at the back neck.
Notice how the softness of
bodice is gathered-in below the
yokes and: darted smoothly above

Fthe waist-seaming. A casual, care- _

free look is given by thé cool, simple V-neckline which curves right
into a front buttoning to the waist.
The skirt of this frock hangs in
slim yet easy lines, with ample fullness for walking and sitting freedom. Though just short sleeves are
shown, long and three quart
styles are included in this stunn
pattern for -~ smart,

Delicate Topic
For Miss Jameson

/ Many Carry An
Aura That Is

Insult to Nose

By. HELEN JAMESON
(Distributed ~py King Features
Syndicate, Inc.)

Here isi a subject} that every
writer on ~beauty topics would like
to side-step. It is not flattering
to the pulchritude clientele to suggest that they are afflicted with~
body odor. But the tvuth is that
many women, and men too, carry
with thm an aura that is an ~insult to the public nose.

One would imagine that since
the bathtub is an institvion, this
trouble weuld not exist. There are
rare cases whicn, despite ihe most
scrunula.; ceantness commie tc
make the victims of this infliction
miserable. Thes: cases call ~for

WARM BATH NEEDED

Wander int, a movie for relaxation and amusement end you may
find that you have to change your
seat. Get into an elevator and you
may wish that you had missed
that one. Dress. fitters find: life a
burden because of offensive skin
emanations. You can*t tell, they
say, by the handmade, expensive
undies whether or not the customer. is fastidious about, pe*sonal
attention.

Often enovgh well dressed bes?

Certainly no woman of intelligence
will bear with the trouble. She
knows that it interferes with social awd business lifes that is 3

When sweat glands are ovel-active there shculd be a warm bath
at bedtime. Before applying soap
the entire skin surface should be
massaged vigorously w'sh clear
water, which rolls up dead skin
cells. This form of debris, to which

in the ~ampits, along the. wader
side of the arms, on the sides of
the body. The palm of the hand
will make a better job of removing
skin scales than will the wasn

FLUFF UP RICH SUDS

Use a heavy bath brush, cne with
bristles so strong they will not
