does not, circumstance which bears

Hints For uomemakcrs

Use only what you can comfortably
afford in good quality and ample guam.
tity.
Let your home appear bright and sun

cheerful room.
A certain formality is necessary to
save everyday life from trlviality and
freedom from looseness.
Know how to. talk and how to listen,
how to entertain and amuse.
Have many interests.
Do not forget your home should not
only be a well conducted dormitory and
boarding place. but truly home, the
