A Riot in Your Own Home.

! If you're the golden-haired darling
| of a large and devoted family, you're
a very lucky girl in one way. There's
| nothing more satisfying and comfort
| ing in the world than the knowledge
that no matter what blows you may
| receive from the rest Of the world, one
group at home thinks you're the
worlds best.
But the girl who depends too much
on her loving family's support Is apt
to get severe chill when she ven-
lures out into the thing we call the
| social Whirl."
kids, and had a large and adoring
| family from the minute she arrived
on earth.
They were none of them very good
looking or clever, so when Helene ar
| rived with her lovely golden hair,
they united in praising the great
beauty who had come to make the
family happy.
Then at school Helene did pretty
well. She got better marks than most
of the older brothers and sisters had
been able to achieve.
She did nothing really extraordi-
| nary, but her fond parents and other
relatives were hugely impressed with
her every action.
In this way she arrived at her 18th
year with the conviction that she was
beautiful, talented, witty and, oh, so
charming.
1t wasn't her fault, you see. She
had it dinned into her ears so long
that she was perfect riot, she SIM
ply awaited the coming of social sue
cess with all the confidence in the
world.
On the night of her first big dance,
mother and sister and the boys came
in and raved ecstatically over the
slim, green dance frock.
Good Lord, you'll have a wonder
full time" sighed Doris. her sister
You're just made to be popular"
And when Helene arrived at the big
Jig she never even noticed how much
more sophisticated and charming the
other girls looked.
She never realized that she looked
rather homemade and dolly beside the
smart young things who were old
timers at these dances.
She took an awful beating that
night as the dreary evening wore on.
and no one cut in-no one asked to
see her again-no one but her suffer-
ing partner even knew she was there.
Still the conceit which her loved
ones had planted in her mind refused
to die.
She went through several painful
years trying to make herself believe
that the outside world didn't appreci-
ate real beauty and wit and charm.
Then she finally came down off her
high horse and strove desperately to
learn how to be smart and clever and
bright, just like all the other girls she
met when she went out.
It's unwise to rely on the love-blind-
ed eyes Of adoring familie~ for clear
vision as to our true worth.
Don't bank too much on the opin.
ion of the family when you go out to
face the cruel world-be it business
or social.
Your mother and father may think
you've got everybody else cleaned off
the map, but their ideas won't inf1u-
ence the stag line one way or the
other.
