For freedom did Christ set US

After all. the surest way to be
artificial is to try to be natural ac-
cording to some other mans recipe.
One reason why the wild children
of nature attract our eyes ard give
US an inward, subtle satisfaction In
watching them is because they seem
so confident that their own way OF
doing things is. for them at least,
the best way
They let themselves go, on the air,
in the water, over the hills, among
the trees, and do not ask for admira-
tion or correction from people who
are differently built.

occasion that while women didn't
wear knickers for tennis they did
ior golf. Rut, as a matter of fact, it
is now smarter to wear a skirt even
on the links. 1t isn't a matter of pro-
priety-but one of smartness that
really determines this question of
kn1ckerbockers or skirts with most
of us.
There is nothing the least bit strik-
ing or original about the golf get-up
of the best-dressed women.
Following the English fashion, you
may wear a tweed suit with mannish
shirt beneath, or you may select the
costume chosen by the smart French
or Italian woman when she plays
golf-namely, a narrow. short skirt
with thin, silk siip-on sweater, al
ways with long, close-setting sleeves
Preferably this thin silk sweater
shows neither stripe nor application
of any ornament For cooler days it
may be exchanged for a sweater of
fine wool. At the neck a handker-
chief-not too large-is knotted. There
are pull-on gauntlet gloves, wool and
silk stockings, heavy oxfords, and a
simple hat of the pull-on sort-pref-
erably of lightweight felt.

There were to be two flower girls
at Cousin Alice's wedding. and Betty
Cut-out was one of them. The other
girl, whose name was Margie, she
had never seen before, but they soon
became the best of friends.
Margie lived only little way from
Newport, where the wedding was to
be, so she could come to spend the
day with Betty, who was to stay all
week at Cousin Alice's house, and
then she went home in the evening
with her father in their automobile.
One day Margie came running up
to Betty. "Oh, Betty, Cousin Alice
says you can go home with me
tomorrow and stay all day. Won't
that be fun?" So Betty ran to pack
her little travelling bag.
Betty Cut-out has light yellow
curls and pretty pink cheeks. She
is wearing a bright blue dress. Cut
her out and mount her.

Can I Grow Tall?

Young girl who is understood add an
inch or so to her stature? l believe
.he can-by taking exercise.
Most queries come from girls four
. teen to eighteen. There is always
hone for them, fer most people do
NOT reach their full height until they
are tWenty-one. OF course, heredlty
has so much to do with it, that there
is little hope for child OF snort
narents, who is short when half
rrown. Yet how many men over six
feet come from undersiZed parents!
THE only general rule is that the nor
maIly healthy, well nourished men
and women who get decent amount
1,ourished children, deprived of enough
fresh air and sunlight, able to play
only in cramped spaces, are usually
understood.
They say that the Japanese Ill sni
dren average a couple OF inches taiIer

schools in 'slum districts, when given
scientific feeding and exercise, grow
taller than; the children where such
humane experiments are not tried.
They, say the western men are taiier
than the eastern, farm laborers taller
than factory workers, etc.
So I would suggest to every one
to a gymnasium. or form a class
among your own friends, or pIoo
along by yourself-but take exercises
Dumb-beils, stretching the arms over
the head, lying on the floor and
stretching the whole body as much
as possible, waist-bending exercises,

ali easy to do. Play tennis, play
golf. or any game that gets you out
