We Women

Edith, The Girl Who Loves To Enter TTyHE latch key is always hanging out
 and big welcome sign adorns the
 door of the house wherever Edith lives. She is the most hospitable girl in the world. She. has the charm and ability of making everyone feel at home.
 She is a type. s
 She is the Girl Who Loves to Enter tain.
 Edith believes life was just created to give as much pleasure to others as possible and in that way have good time yourself. She adores crowds. The more the merrier and nothing is too much for her to do in order to have a crowd come to her home. She. is an adept in getting up a cold supper in a hurry. She can take odds and ends and make delicious connections in less time than it takes the average person to prepare one dish.
 In this day and age when most girls are working and seheming to see how little they can give and how much they can get in return. Edith is almost in | class by herself.
 It is a peculiar thing, but Edith is very seldom asked, out by any of her boy friends. They always know they can have a good time at her house, talk ing up the rugs and dancing to the pho nograph or radio and sitting around and talking that they are selfish and invariably let her do the entertaining. They often, however, bring her candy md flowers as tokens of their appre- citation. ST :, When her family remonstrate with Edith that there is never any quiet in the home and ask her why she doesn' t go out, she retorts that they ought to De glad she has so much pleasure in her ewn home and does not go galavanting around where they can't keep an eye on her She cites the cases of other girls whose families complain because they never stay at home and aare therefore ap to all sorts of devilment.
 There is no pretense about Edith. If she has lot she shares it, and if she has very little she also shares that. Her planned house parties are long re- memhered. She is thoughtful and at- tentiye and sees to it that no one is neg lected and as a result she is voted by sll who know her as a jolly good fellow. She is a type.

How to tell whether man really loves her for keeps or is merely divert ing himself with her is the one piece of information that the feminine sex desires above all others.
