Calou predicts the return of the “twist” with the hair swept across the back of the head. where a

place by a tortoise-hall comb. He considers the comb indlspenslble to the well-groomed head. particularly in summer when many women go hatless. is it keeps the hair in place without destroying the line of the coiffure

As for tints. Calou says that the blond has come back into her own again—not the platinum tint but a more natural blond shade. By means of various rinses he is able to give life and tone to drab blond hair. For example, with certain blonds he finds that a pinkish rinse gives exceptional lustre and tone to the hair. He becomes more exotic in the case of women with white hair. for he likes to tint the hair at the temples in pastel shades.

PARENT T0 DECIDE WHETHER CHILD FIT TO ATTEND SCHOOE

Has a parent the right to decide whether his child is fit to attend school?

This question came up for deci- sion recently when. at Hendon Police Court. Iondon. Eng., parent successfully contended he alone had that right.

The magistmtes dismissed I

summons against the parent. John Jagger-s. of Edgwaro. Lseconda-ff school master. It was stained that he failed to send his boy of six to Deansbrook School. Harden.

Mr. Joggers told the inngisti-eta that he objected to a school medi- cal oertificate for his boy of six. as it was rlawminc his authority as a parent t6 as outside his household.

The prosecution admitted that the education authority could not force a parent to supply a medical certificate.

"If the school choose to have a rule that a medical certificate must be submitted then it is probable that a parent knew of that rule when sending his child there. and adheres to it.

PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE

"Life is very disappoirrtlng," a woman of 40 said to me. "There is so much dis- illusionment " Anyone who reaches the age of 40 without some philosophy of life is sure to be disappointed and disillusioned fair- ly frequently. Life, to those of us who live at all. is conflict and endeavour.

DEADLY DULLNESS

For myself, I have new!‘ D00“/90 in the health value of the quiet life. It is not the pace that kills. it is the lack of pace in most lives. It is the monotony. the passing away of interest, that undermines health far more frequently than excite- merit.

Dreams. day dreams. exciting books and plays. are to many nec- *=.=ary "compensations" for the dullness and drearinaas of life. The reason why many people lib ex- citing films is that they are bored by the lack of incident and excite- ment in their own lives. For the some reason pfofire drink and druK —to get away from them

If the buslneu womin's life is monotonous. her health will deter- iorate. If the businea girl under- feeds herself. does her work at a slow pace ard loses interest in it. it is time for her to consider how her life can be changed or modi- fled to satisfy her human aspira- tlons.

We all need variety: the more intelligent the tpye, the more es- sential it is so to order life that we can make for ourselves new interests and eniov new W001” tions.
