BY MIMI.
Practicing Self-Possession.

The one blighting disease that seems
to affect most of you girls Ia self
consciousness - timidity - shyness -
and so you avoid as much as possible
any meetings with strangers.
That's exactly where ycu make your
mistake-when you shrink from So
cial contacts and refuse invitations
through fear of new acquainta noes.
II you'd Just get 1t firmly fixed in
your mind that this stage OF your life
Ia only preliminary skirmish-that
ii doesn't so much matter what sort
Of an impression YOU make on the peo
pie YOU meet now-youd progress
much farther in the direction of self
possession.
When you're invited to an affair
which will necessitate your meeting
new people and talking to them, don't
cringe and fake and excuse-accept
the invitation march off to the ordeal
and talk yourself hoarse.
Every time you get through an
afternoon or an evening In which
you've had to fight your shyness you
can say to yourself: MY girl, you've
lived through that. Next time it will
be easier"
When some dreadful old bore asks
you TO spend the evening at her home.
don't stammer your apologies. Just
as you can. Practice your sprightly
conversation on everybody she intro
duces you to. Never mind what kind
OF an impression you make on them.
You're not concerned with their opin-
ion of you-you want to shine in front
of your contemporaries.
If you happen to be interested in
some particular boy. but YOU find your
self tonguetied in his presence, don't
O 70 t,.it y
him You'll find he only makes you
more and more self-conscious But IL
YOU get in a little rapid practice when
he's not around, the rest will be splen-
did-yOull get used to talking pleas
antly and easily, and when he comes
around again your timidity will have
lessened somewhat.
If YOU find that You chatter glibly
enough when some special he" isn't
around. but that his presence confuses
you frightfully. then just try pretend
ing that he's only old Mrs. G.. who
lives next door.
Summon all your nerve and give
him exactly the same line of conver-
sation you use for other people. You
may sound fearfully dull at first but
as you get over your first shyness
you'll talk more easily and more per
sonally.
The big idea is to seize every oppor-
tunity offered YOU to meet strangers
and talk to them
No matter how modest a violet you
may he. constant practice in making
new acquaintances and entertaining
them is bound TO give you poise.
Don't run away from the ordeal of
talking to new people. Face II, meet
It bravely, do the best you can-and
realize when it is over that you've
taken a big step toward being a self
possessed poised young woman.
Mimi will be glad to answer any inquiries
directed TO this paper. provided a stamped.
addressed envelope is inclosed.

for James? Did the little remnant
of church fail him and out of its
disaster learn the secret of the Pres
ence of God? Or did God call James
to Himself because he was refusing to
grow beyond the borders of Jerusa-
lem that had so positively rejected
Jesus lordship? IS swift death and
sudden glory less a proof of Gods
care than opened gates and life as
fugitive? One thing is sure; if God
was able to save one He was able to
save the other. Another thing is
equally so; God is often hampered in
His doing by our lack of fidelity. And
it is certain that if the Church prayed
more Gods Kingdom would come
more swiftly and if that Jerusalem
Church had filled full the measure of
its promise at Pentecost James would
not have died of politics because
Herod was catering to the majority
just as some politicians do today.
Nor would God have had the job of
releasing Peter for he wouldn't have
been in.
But that all night praying is
stirring picture of passionate ear
.nestness. They were reaching into the
forces that move the world and while
they did not ask for release, if one
may judge by their surprise, but for
the grace that would carry Peter thru
the ordeal God was giving more than
was asked and the Apostle was stand
ing at the gate knocking in the dim
dawn and unable to enter. This gate
wouldn't open without persistent
pounding. Rose, some slave girl in
Christian home, had given her night
to devotion and was the only one to
believe that prayer must stop to re-
ceive its answer. Long prayers run
clear past their objective sometimes.
Some one rallied Spurgeon on his
brief petitions. Il always stop run
ming when I've caught the train"
was his reply. Was that one reason
of his power? Certainly not to re-
ceive the answer is to defeat the
prayer. But Rose knew and the
knocks verified her experience and
Gods errand outside the city that had
determined its own doom.
