Omaha Bee Like many others, I shall come to you for advice. I live in a small town and am to be waiter at the annual banquet. What color would be appropriate for the occasion and also what kind of goods? 1 weigh 140 pounds and am rive feet one and one-half inches tall. How would you advise me to have the dress made? I am 17. Am I too heavy and how mticn snouid I weigh? Just what is your opinion of either public or private dancing? Thanking you in advance, I re main, "B1LL1E." Georgette in any light becoming shade or the new figured georgette would be good for wear at your an nual banquet. If you want some thing less expensive you might choose voile. The new fashion books show particularly pretty girlish frocks and it ought to be easy to se Iect a style. With your build choose something simple with long straight lines. A girl of your height at 17 should weigh about 120 pounds. The best people do not attend public dances; the company Is too promiscuous and the tone of the gathering is usually not high. Such nances are a great waste of valua ble time. If you enjoy dancing go to private dances where the guests are Known to you. G. M. You should count vourse'f lucky in having a girl friend whose wise home training and general good sense are shown in her refusal to grant liberties which you have no right to expect unless an engage ment exists. Twinkle: I fear it is too lute In life for your ears to be changed. Your writing is better than your spelling. Both could be much im proved. A Reader Any woman who Is willing to do housework can find employment in Omaha. If you need further advice come In and see me. Anxious: You ask so many ques tions that I do not think you in tend me to answer all of them. Don't worry about a young man who does not care enough about you to write to you. As for entering the movies. the best thing to do is to go to Los Angeles or some other moving pic ture center and try to get an ap pointment with one of the managers. Do not go without your mother, or some other reliable chajjefone. how- Way Mrs. Durkee Received Alfred's Suggestion. Dr. Gibson's long, slender fingers manipulated fittle Mrs. Durkee's swollen foot and ankle as carefully as possible, the while she struggled gamely for composure, uttering no outcry save pitiful little moans when his touch set in motion some par ticularly tortured nerve. But her face , grew whiter and . whiter until I was afraid that she would swoon again, and I was glad, indeed, when he finally laid her foot back against the electric warming pad and straightened himself to his full height. "There's nothing broken," he said reassuringly, "but there's a nasty sprain. Now, little lady, if you'll just put that foot out here I'll fix you up so it won't pain you." He brought out a queer-looking, queer-smelling unguent with which he gently massaged the foot and ankle, and then he! deftly bandaged it in a manner to bring pangs of envy to my Red Cross surgical rlass soul. "There," rfc said to me as he fin ished, "just fix this pad so it wrll keep at medium heat the rest of the night, cover the ankle lightly with something woolly, and give her this in a few minutes. She'll forget her troubles until morning, and then I'll be on hand again." This, was a pellet which I knew was a powerful sedative, and I saw that the physician had seen the nervous strain under which his pa tient was laboring, and meant to give her a restful, if drugged sleep. Doctor Is Firm. "Wait a minute." Little Mrs. Dur kee spoke decisively, and I saw the color returning to her cheeks and lips, knew that the relief of knowing there were no broken bones, as well as the assuagement of pain by the bandaging of the ankle, had civen her new streligtli. "I've got a bushel of tomatoes that simply must bz can ned." Dr. Gibson smiled quizzically down at her. "Suppose we wait to discuss thut until tomorrow comes,", he said. "Not much!" she retorted. "I'm going to know right this minute how long I've got to be cooped up here. If you don't tell me I won't take one bit of your nasty old medi cine, so there!" ' She looked, despite her age, very much like a pretty, naughty, little girl as she glanced up at the physi cian poutingly. He stroked his chin meditatively for a minute, then a glint came into his(eyes which I knew meant his most adamant mood. "You have no particular desire to have a crooked, twisted foot for life. have you?" he asked with a snap in his voice. She looked frightened and an swered with a meek little: "No-o but " "But nothing!" he retorted. "Just let me ten you something straight lou have as nasty a sprain as I've ever seen. It's going to take alt my skin -ana implicit obedience from you to save you from permanent lameness, jmiiij you, there s no danger of it if you obey directions. Now, will vou be good?" The Silent Glance. My little neighbor searched his face with eyes in which there was childish cunning. But what she saw in them evidently cowed her. for she murmured in an abashed little voice: "I'll do what you say." "Then you must not leave this room for two weeks at least, and in every movement that you make you must guard against jarring your foot. It must be protected at all times. Therefore you must have some one cither hi the room or with in call constantly, for vou will not be able to help yourself." "Oh-h, doctor!" the moan was as genuine as if the pain in her foot had caused it. "All my canning. But don't sav I've got to have a trained nurse. T can't stand that!" "That isn't necessary," said Dr. Gibson indulgently, "provided you can get some friend or relative with average intelligence and a deft touch to stay with you. I can show such a person in a few minutes everything there is to be done be tween visits." "There isn't a soul," Mrs. Durkee said dolefully, looking at me, how ever, with distinct hope in her eyes. Nonesense, I said. You know I can come over for a day or two anyway until we see what can be done. At any rate you won't be left alone." "Perhaps that Mrs. Ware who does sewing for" me sometime " she began when Alfred interrupted, just a hint of sterness in his tone. "I think you're forgetting, mother, that there is some one who will count it a privilege to come and take care of you. I do not think Leila would readily forgive us if in this emergency we did not call on her." I was glad that Alfred, in embr rassment at bringing his fiancee's name into the conversation, did not look at his mother as he spoke. For such a. shadow of resentment and disapproval crossed her face that I trembled for fear she would give it voice. (Continued Tomorrow.)
