HERE is an excellent point in favour of long bobs for school- girls. Long bobs are youthful and pretty, romantic and adaptable. Besides, they lead girls who have them to take more pride in their hair-to brush harder and to be more fussy about keeping it clean. You simply can't have a long bob and be proud of it if it is oily and unkempt.

Drapes, rumes, bows, busties and hips are all part of the Victorian mode, but one needn't, praise be, take them all at onco
Drapes, as now conceived, aro almost entirely involved with knots and bows. Hips especially are tied up with drapes. Balenciaga thinks nothing of introducing bows to lie in pairs, and such bows can be either at front or at back; Alix and Schin- parelli regulate the taut drape of the hip in this fashion. Lelong's bodices enn be identified this season with some of the most individual drapery, these also seeming to derive from the Jeu of tossing in knots wherever the draperies are

Heavy hair tends to pull out and straighten natural waves by slider weight. Shaping your hair needn't affect the length. Go to a good hair dresser and have him find the direc- tion of your natural wave and shape the hair accordingly. Many shops specialise in this kind of hair-cut.
To keep your hair immaculately clean, choose your favourite kind of shampoo and wash your hair every two weeks or so, depending on its condition to start with. Some girls Like the soapless shampoos that can be used either in soft or hard water; others prefer a good soap shampoo. Personally, I profer the Iatler for reguler uso; and there la an excellent non-drying, olive-castle shampoo of this type that is easy to use and leaves your hair clean and spark- ling.
Keep Your Ifair Clean Whether you shampoo every week or every month, you must keep your hair clean, Brushing does a lot in the cause of cleanliness, but it can- not
remove all perspiration odour, cigarette smoke and oil that tend to accumulate between shampoos. There is a perfectly grand hair and scalp freshener that will help you do that. It's a fragrant lotion, applied like a hair tonic along one-lach partings.
Use cotton pledglets for rubbing the cleanser along the partings, dis carding the cotton as fast as it be comes solled and taking fresh plece frequently. When the entire hend has been treated with the freshener, massage briskly, wipe oft as much moisture as you can with a clean towel, then brush the hair vigorous- ly. Your hair will look, smell and feel clean.
As a Anal slep, apply creamy wave-set, brushing it well through the hair, so it is distributed ovenly and sparingly. Now push your waves into pince and set your curls by brushing over your finger.
