THE ANGRY GIRL.
She Loses All Sense Of Humor When
In a Temper.

She Loses All Sense Of Humor When
In Temper.
She loses her sense Of humor; often
also any other sense she has goes with
It.
If getting angry ever did any good
there would be more reason in it.
The surest way to weaken a good
cause is by a bad temper.
The girl who is easily angered pays
the piper in broken friendships.
A hot temper rarely finds a happy
home big enough to hold it.
The angry girl forgets that the peni-
tence which follows her folly is not
pleasant company.
Jefferson's hundred counting rule for
the very angry does not always work.
There are some RACES that would re-
quire a lightning calculator.
Wrath conquered is the best recipe
for character Strengthening known.
She who can't get angry will never
have the force of the girl who can and
don't
While an occasional storm clears the
air, many storms work havoc. A rage
in a good cause may correct abuses,
but keeping up those RACES never lands
one anywhere-but in disrepute.
The angry girl has no sense Of per
spective. The tiniest wrong has a way
Of blocking the foreground as it would
never do if she kept cool.
Anger would not be so bad II it dbi
not loosen the tongue. but unfortu-
nately the angry woman usually opens
her mouth and shuts tight her eyes to
what is seemly.
One rage, a hundred regrets, leave
a balance on the wrong side Of the
ledger that is sometimes never worked
of.
Anger is such a futile thing. Usual
ly it hurts the woman who is racked
by it more than the victim OF heI
wrath.
Anger might be worth while II Il

comes the time of wondering: "Whai

Trim tailored looking shirt waist suit

ong, warm wrap is an excellent substi-
ute.
The hat should be small and tied

wear neat and substantial-no high

A linen collar and tie will give an
