lightfully with two violin solos. A

preaching marriage to Lloyd C. Girls
void. Refreshments were served by
the committee in charge.

DO YOU,

Put yourself in the other person. place before you Judge
them.
Like people for what they are and not for what they
have.
happy, charity for the erring and patience with the ignorant.
Seek elegance and refinement rather than luxury and
show.
Know what it is to have a definite aim in life and not
allow yourself to be sidetracked.
Realize that health is lnes greatest wealth and guard
it accordingly.
Accept ridicule, scepticism and opposition without
flinching.
Use dEcoura cement as a spur, having the tenacity and
grit to hold on and persevere in spite of numerous obstacles
and repeated failures.
Do your work, whatever it may be, to a finish and stamp
it with the gold seal of loyalty and honesty.
Put others before self and friends before fortune.
Learn some useful thing and do some kind act each day.
Think before you speak lest you wound another's feelings.
Of course you don, for if you did what a paragon of per-
lection you would be. But do you try? That is the standard
by which you will be judged.

In fact, says Jeanne Eagels.
Broadway star and a blond herself
The professional vamp was only
a myta anyway. Cleopatra had red
hair and, I imagine. quite a nice dis
position. She'd have to have a nice
disposition or the men wouldn't like
her.
IF blends seem to predominant
over the affections of men 1 would
attribute it to the fact that their dis
positions are milder. If I were 60
ing to suggest Anything to the pro-
thing like this:
Dress well.
Be as brainy as you can.
Be as beautiful as you car.
Never, never lose your temper.
And give you jade earrings to the
ash man."
Hope Isn't Lost
But the dark-haired vamp needn't
give up all hope.
DR.. S. A. Tannenbaum, noted
psycho-analyst, comes to her rescue.
IF we could get a complete list
of vampires through all history" he
says, I'VE would probably find that
it is $3.50 between the blends and
brunets.
"At different times one, or the
other of these colors would be in
favor. TIL evamp would adopt the
popular style.
'"These women want to keep up
with the latest in their makeup
dress and appeal.
Tight colors seem to be in the
now, so we have the pre-
dominance of bonds.
But the color has little to do
with their lure"

ChiIdren's Toys

Every year at the holiday season
I feel impelled to write something
about what, and what not, 10 give
the children. There seems never a
time when persons ordinarily en-
dowed with a good sense will depart
from it so utterly a. at the Christ
mas season. The sole impulse ap-
pears to be to spend some money,
and what it is spent for. or how
much good it is going to do the re-
cipient, is the lesser consideration.
In the case of children who have
a wealth of toys all the year round
if some mistakes are made at the
Christmas season it is to be supposed
that the harm is small, but for those
who receive ~luxuries of toys and
playthings only at the Christmas
time, too much thought cannot be
wasted on a proper choice.
One feels like paraphrasing o.
Henry and say:
THE stores are so full Of q num-
Der of things
I'm sure we should all be as hap
py as kings"
But to make a choice from the
numbers, That is decidedly another
question.
First of all we know that no
one can go wrong who buys a little
girl q doll. Dolls have liver for
hundreds of years as playthings be-
cause they satisfy an eternal need.
Dolls which can be dressed and I'M
dressed whose clothes have buttons
and button holes in regular grown
up style and who has proper clothes
N which to spend the night repay
the extra work the mother must
expend to make them. With such
a doll the little girl can lead an
imaginative life, putting Ellen Lou
to bed at the right hours and dress
ing her in the morning with all the
efforts which harass the live mother.

POLTTENESS IS DEAD AND
BURIED BUT NO MATTER
By Marian Hale

What has become OF our man
ners?
Everyone has asked the question.
Playwrights, ministers, novelists
and teachers have answered it in
terestinigly.
But it is Emily Post who speaks
with real authority.
She is author % the new Eth
quette," an imposing blue volun1
which is studied as deeply on Fifth
Avenue as on Main Street, the last
word on what to do and how to do
it, on what not to do and how to
avoid doing it.
Matter of Ethics
Instead of worrying about man
ners," says Mrs. Post, I'VE should
concern ourselves with the ethics
which prompt them. Manners are
only a surface indication of what's
underneath.
TT takes time to be polite, gra-
cious and thoughtful, and who h
the Sc days has any time? OId-fash-
toned, slow-paced elegance of man
ners went out with leisure and the
arts of conversation and letter writ
ing.
But II. by our curt, direct sen
fences, we mean the same thing that
the Frenchman means by his polish
ed phrases, we have nothing to fear,
because true ~politeness is merely
one persons intention toward an
other.

The special task assigned to the
