Editorials For
Women Folks

Shes a woman who has a style
Of her own"
1t is a statement sometimes meant
as a compliment; more often as an
excuse.
"A style of her own" But just
what is style?
We learned from our copybooks
at school that style in literature is
"the expression Of personality
through highly developed tech
nique."
Well and good for literature-and
in some cases for clothes! But the
former nobody need read unless he
wants to, while the latter all the
world must look at unless we walk
the streets with closed eyes.
1t is only the ultra-clever woman,
Sarah Bernhardt, for instance, who
can successfully develop a style OF
her own. Mary of England also sets
her own styles. But these two
women r queens, n of the stage,
the other of an empire.
True style in dress Is never freak
ish, W. q pose, and above all
never accentuates personality.
The wise woman fights shy of a
style of her own. She knows 1t Il
a delusion and a snare. So h Sc
lects what other people are wearing.

That gentlehood is never conspic-
nous.
That beauty is a joy forever"

Finally my husband kissed me

ENTIRELY correct" said Sarah.

you know. settles all differences"
Agreed" said Jacob. Nowadays
there's too much talk of free love.
In fact, there's too much talk"
That's a fact" said Sarah.
People think they have TO think,
and then they have TO talk about
what they think. That makes all
the trouble
THE right idea" said Jacob.
"Once you've married a woman,
stick. Put on the harness with the
binders. Then you'll pull straight
ahead"
And pull together" said Sarah.
Too many young couples lives are
spoiled because they want different
joys-and different sorrows"
Correct" said Jacob. TOO many
young people have too much leisure.
Then they run around and get into
trouble"
Very true" said Sarah. "The
wives should stick to their knit
ting
you're right" said Jacob. And
the husbands should stick to their
jobs"
We've always had a very good
time together" said Jacob and
Sarah; much better than we could
have anywhere else with anyone

The Dicks were born in Galicia.
They were married when thirteen.
They have seven children and forty
grandchildren.
