The FIRST word-Everyone should

August Il the month when most OF
the busy girls. employed all the rest
Of the year, take their vacations. We
sof the stage, however, generally begin
our seasons work at that time. The
last three weeks OF August are usually
EHiven over 10 rehearsals OF our new
lparts and plays, and for this-perhaps
the hardest work we do during the
run OF the piece-we get no pay.
I Ours Is the only profession in the
tworld where the employe must put his
time against the first expenses paid
ny the employer in the starting OF a
new business-for every play Is new
business and one OF the most precari-
Gus in which the American business
men engages Because OF the terrible
wear and tear on ones nerves during
rehearsals, most OF Us try TO take as
long vacations as possible before.
One gets rusty and fraZzled doing
the same thing over and over every
day In the year, so every girl VINO
works should try TO take little rest
during the summer II possible. II you
have been working In the city, go into
the country where II is quiet. II you
can get to the seashore or mountains,
80 much the better, but II you cannot
do any OF these things. when you get
your week or two, be out OF doors as
much as possible. Spend most OF your
days in the parks of your city or In
the woods about It.
Take light lunch OF fruit and
bread. A good complexion lunch" Is
made OF brown bread that is "a hours
old. spread with very little butter. and
couple OF tomatoes eaten with a
little salt You can vary this lunch
with a lettuce salad sandwich made
with brown bread, or an onion sand

II you can get a glass OF cool but
termilk to go with this, you will have
a meal fit for a queen. Don't try "a
eat lot OF candy. ice cream soda and
