Just
EUey
Day
Sense

r JUST have finished going
Il through three morning and five
afternoon newspapers. They con-
tain an almost incredible amount
of advice to women. I learned,
for instance, that it is our duty:
To spend more than we ever
have done to relieve the present
business depression.
to give up our jobs and improve
the unemployment situation.
To take more interest in out
side affairs, SO that civilization
may be saved.
To stay closer at home and look
after the family so that civiliza-
ton may be saved.
To cultivate a more intelligent
understanding toward life, so that
we may not bore our husband.
To appear as dumb as possible,
SO that our husbands may not feel
inferior. ct seems it's much
worse for husbands to feel dumb
than it is for wives to be dumb)
To reason with little Johnny
when he has a tantrum.
To switch little Johnny when
he has a tantrum.
To take up backgammon to keep
abreast of the times.
To give up contract bridge,
which threatens to become a fem
mime vice.
To be pals with our husbands.
To be mysterious sirens to our
husbands.
To bend every effort to keep our
youth and beauty.
To cease our ridiculous endeav-
ors to remain a perennial Is.
To stand firmly back of the en-
forcement of the liquor laws.
To work for repeal Of the eight
eenth amendment.
I'll tell you, girls, it looks like
entirely too much is expected Of
lis. My advice is this: Do as you
like, and run your husband to
suit yourself You can't please
everybody, therefore, the only SEN
sible thing to do is to please
yourself.

WOU may not be a barefoot girl
i with cheeks of tan. but every
woman today likes to have her feet
look right when she appears on the
beach in bathing attire. Or in
beach pajamas, with barefoot san
dals.
More than that, your feet show
more than you realize, right through
your shoes. Nobody can harbor
bunions and think the world doesn't
know it.
Therefore, the very first advice to
those who want beautiful feet is to
have your shoes large enough. 1t
is a precaution scarcely needed to-
day
Nearly every one realizes that
only through comfort does real
beauty come. But once in awhile, if
a certain pair of lovely slippers is
reduced, the best of us may fall for
