Why Not Be the First?

Have you sometimes wondered
why one particular girl in your set
is always Just 10 minutes ahead of
all the rest of you?
Sally Anne is a marvel and source
of wonder to her friends.
Is there a new wrinkle in hair
combs. in necklaces. trick earrings or
bracelets?
Sally IS showing them on her per-
son weeks before anybody else has
heard of them.
Other girls envy her-wish they
could achieve that effect Of being
right up to the minute.
why is It," they ask, that when
ever we go to buy anything smart
and new we always find out that
Sally's had 1t for weeks, and already
considers 1t old? How can We get
the edge on her SO that we don't al
ways appear to be copying her
styles?
Well. IL they only stopped to figure
things out, they'd realize that Sally
is no mystery girl. She doesn't get
special dispatches from Paris as to the
latest things to wear. But she keeps
her eyes open and she has the courage
to try new things all by herself.
Honestly, how many OF you girls
have the gumption TO start new fad?
You read the fashion magazines. don't
you? And therein you find many new
and novel ways Of dressing the hair
suggestions for trick accessories and
ideas for making your old clothes look
different. But do you try any Of them
out? You do not unless some one like
Sally paves the way for you.
ha ha
are all anxious to follow suit Only
none of you ever achieve her distinc-
tion because you're all Il bit late.
Take for instance the matter of
hair. You've been reading for months
that hair ought to be smooth and
sleelt-that the ears ought to be allow
ed to show.
But how many of you dared to come
right out and show your ears, until
some one with greater audacity than
yourself made it possible for you?
This isn't a very important matter,
but it shows a tendency of mind that
Is to be deplored.
So few of you have the spunk to Sc
lect style which is becoming and
adopt it for your own in the face OF
ridicule from those who hang on to
old fashions until they're worn out. .
Yesterday we watched groups Of
girls clustering about counter IN one
OF the big New York stores-they
were examining with curiosity a new
kind of necklace. a plain gold band,
much like a wedding ring.
They fingered the pretty trinkets
and looked at each other obviously.
Then a tall. snlartly dressed woman
dashed up and asked the sales girl
for three OF them. I've been trying
to get them for week." she an
nounced crisply.
The girls watched her as she snap
ped them about her throat. They did
look stunning.
And Immediately they invested.
lOthers rushed up and soon a new sales
girl was needed TO help supply the
ever rgrowing demand for wedding
ring necklaces.
We're all inclined to be copy-Cats.
Let's overcome that tendency as
much as possible
Let's try things tor ourselves-nOt
wait for others.
See how much more fashionable and
distinguished you are if you start fads
instead of following them.
Mimi Will be glad 20 answer any inquiries

Eating Ants.

A singular method of identifying
various species of ants that are found
in this country is that of a well
known professor of entomology in
New England. He picks the ant up
off the ground, puts it in his mouth
and tastes it. BY the amount of
formic acid which nips his nerves OF
taste this scientist is able to tell what
kind of ant it is.
Now. what do you know about that?

One mother saws:

One mother says:
| have aroused a loving interest
for books in my daughter by helping
her TO start a little library of her very
own. A pretty little bookshelf, easily
made, and two or three books of her
own choosing from the family library
are enough to begin with. A list of
books she wants is kept where the
family may consult it for birthdays
and Christmases. SO that the library
will have little help from daddy
and mother. While the shelf is still
somewhat bare. the child may keep
her public library books there. This
will foster desire for worthwhile
books and will be an incentive for
keeping them in good condition.
