quite forgotten except for their
pleasant memories.
Youthfulness, we have learned.
liz rather a constructive mode OF
thought than a brief span of some
twenty girlhood years.
One Of the loveliest women
ever met was grandmother
sixty-eight years young.
This woman often golfed with
her husband and children, danced
and swan with them. She was
their comrade as well as wise
ADVISER. AT the wedding Of her
youngest daughter the bride laugh
lngly and proudly remarked TINT
her mother looked younger and
prettier than any Of her daupb-
ters.
This woman's beauty and charm
were not due to cosmetics, for she
used them sparingly, II at all; nor
to her clothes. though she dressed
well. Her loneliness was the
natural expression Of a lifetime
of unsettled, absorbed interest in
others, together with sensible at
tention to her own health and ap-
pearance.
She remained young because she
retained a fresh interest in life
and a receptive mental attitude.
There is a beauty of autumn, as
well as a beauty of spring. And
winter has its own loneliness Of
evergreen and earth dreaming un-
der a snowy carpet Of immortal
springtime. The autumn and wiz
ter Of life also hold for woman ex-
quisite beauty.
A wise woman accepts without
struggle or regret all the myriad
moods Of life's loneliness.
When the bells ring in the new
year, as they will a few hours
hence, let us, with due apprecia-
ton of all that is good in the old
order of things, yet welcome with
open minds the progressive and
the new. Let the chimes ring out
for us old prejudices and narrow
points of view and ring in new
ideals of happy service, youthful
ness and beauty.
AS the poet sang
ring out the old, ring in the new.
Ring happy bells across the
snow,
Ring out the false, ring in tho

, The article was lavish in its
praise Of the painter who had
mastered the art Of the chisel as
well as that Of the brush. AS I
read, a cool, aloof part Of my
brain sat in Judgment and said:
mo wonder Jim is proud Of his
friendship with this genius. Who
wouldn't be? It's enough to make
any man believe in himself to
find that his friendship means
anything to one Of the great art
lists Of his time"
But the woman in me was In
revolt. I found myself torn by a
fury Of jealousy which was all
the more devastating because I
was divided against myself and
could see why Jim must rejoice
in this friendship which had the
more power to hurt me just be.

I wondered If it was to con-
suit Jim about this statue that
Ruth Gregory had sent for him
the evening Rosa Cordova heard
him passing her apartment to go
to Ruth's studio. For a mo-
ment I contemplated talking it
all over with Jim. But in the
next instant I knew 1 could
never do this.
If Jim comes to me frankly
and talks over with me what
everyone who reads must know,
can force myself to accept any
situation, including the probable
one that he's going to pose for
the statue.
When got to this point in
my cogitations Irma came flut-
tering back into the room. Her
mood, as saw at glance,
was entirely different from the
tense, uncertain and almost ter
rified one in which she left the
room.
