about her thoughts. You'll find the A
girl off the stage. too. The A girl
Is tail and stately and proud. She
never moves hurriedly. She hasn't
any nerves that bother her. There
Is grace In every movement. and
her own beauty and charm give her as
much pleasure as they do anyone else.
The A girl is never likely TO fall
desperately In love because she Is
unimpetuous and too dignifed to
give way to emotions. When she
does marry she will realize that
she Is doing the man great favor
In giving him SO much beauty. The
A girl is always gentle and refined
The B girl-she's one with cleverness.
She doesn't have to be good-looking
Her cleverness can make up for any
lack OF that. But she Is rarely tall
Often her figure Is far from perfect
But she has a smile that comes from
the heart and she Is interested In life
and In things and persons about her.
She forgets herself, and when she
