By ALICIA HART
NBA Service Bull Writer
Right in the midst of the furor
over pompadours, Hollywood pre-
sents a brand new evening hair
style for fall.
Pretty Paulette Goddard was
the first to wear it. but to Dolores
Del Rio goes credit for its exis-
tence.
Seems that Miss Del Rio told
Miss Goddard how the señoritas
of Dtirango, Mexico, wove bright
ribbons in their hair at fiesta time
And then Miss Goddard and her
favorite studio hairdresser. La-
vaughn Speer, decided that color-
ful yarns would be more practical
than ribbons.
IT GOES WITH
LONGER COIFFURES
The hair-do lends itself to long
hair and to shoulder-length bobs.
Here are hairdresser Speer's dir-
ections:
First, make a center part from
ioreheud to base of skull. The hair
on each side of the part then is
combed from back to front and
swept upward.
Leaving severa! inches of yarn
iree at the top, start braiding close
to the scalp, using two sections of
wool to one o' hair.
iFor the illustrations shown
here, half a dozen pastel shades of
yarn, about afghan weight were
used. Length of the yarn depends
on the hair length and how much
crown preferred. Narrow white
satin ribbon or fine strips of chif-
fon may be used in place of yarn.
USE WAVE LOTION
TO HOLD STRAGGLERS
Continue braiding with only the
wool for six inches after the hair
ends. This much is needed to cover
short back hairs. Completed, the
two braids should stick up in a.
horn on each side of the head.
Now turn the horns down, draw-
ing them above and behind the
ears Criss-cross the yarn bands
at the back of the neck and fas-
ten them flat with hairpins.
The loose, foot-long strands of
yarn at the top of the head are
then twisted into a rope and pin-
ned into a flat band or coronet.
Finish by brushing the abort tem
pie hairs up and buck, using a
wave solution to make the hair-
line clean and distinct.

ing lower and lower in poverty
and ignorance,

hearts, open minds, undaunted

ghboiilness among communities, a
more intelligent citizenry, with a

She doesn't really enjoy life her-

tamily from having much fun.
The whole trouble is that worn
jen like this don't .'boose anything
from their houses to their
: friends - in answer to the prac-
tical question "What do I and my
family reailv wartiV" Instead they
, always wondc • "'A nat-Will-THEY

1 forts and ••onvenicnces and luxur-
ies will add the most to her fam-
ily's happiness. She picks the nei

press her friends.
She furnishes her house With
what "THEY are using in THEIR
homes" scared to ..tenth to make
it a place that without regard to
what "THEY are doing" caters to
her family's comfort and whims
and expresses the lamily's indivi-

DANCING LESSONS
She chooses the schools her chil-
dren go to not for. some reason
like, "Where will Jimmv get the
best foundation for college'.'" or
"Where will Susie's talent for art
be encouraged?" but "Where arc
THEY sending THE1K children?"
She chooses her friends for the !
social standing thev have rather i
than for any joy .she may get out!
of their company.
She makes her children take |
dancing lessons, not because she
thinks they should, but because
some other woman's children are !
taking dancing lesslons.
NOT MUCH FUN IF
"THEY" OUTSHINES "WE"
•She is so consistent in her What-
will-THEY-think attitude that
when one of the children gets into
trouble or the family has serious
financial reverses. her first
thought is not for the child or the
family but "What will THEY
think?"
No family is goirto get much
real pleasure out of life if it is
governed by What will THEY

sonal telephone calls, is it ail right
for you to tell your friends of the

you at home?
4 Is it ull right to instruct a
maid to say. when she answers the
telephone during dinner, "Mr.
Brown is at dinner May I have
