LITTLE BENNY
By LEE PAPE.

Pop was smoking and thinking in
his private chair and I was doing my
homework against my will, saying, Aw,
darn this arithmetic, its nuthing but
buntch of old numbers, what good are
they anyways?
Am I to infer that you are re-
questing a little sermon on the value
of numbers? pop said.
No sir, just meant I wished there
any such things, / said, and
pop said, Then you are wrong and I'll
explain why
All numbers have their importance,
although vast number of people live
their life on the theory that if they
ony take care of number one the other
numbers will take care of themselves.
When practiced by animals. this theory
is known as the Survival of the FftteSt,
but when practiced by human beans
it is often called by shorter and more
uncomplimentry terms.
The most graceful figure of a num-
Der is zero, whose youthful cerveS eX-
ert a strange influence over any other
number that happens to stand beside
it. Yet zero all by herself is a pitiful
figure with no attraction for anybody.
From this we learn the valuable lesson
that success in this werld depends on
cooperation and even the most FASH
mating of us will cut a sorry figure if
we try to stand alone.
Even q whole row OF zeros by them
selves will never achieve happiness or
fame, and this shows us unless we
are very powerful ourselves we should
choose individuals of strength and
strong caracter for our companions. In
fact can tawk to you an hour on the
value and significance of numbers, but
perhaps you are reddy to go on with
your homework, are you? pop said.
Yes sir, G, I'm reddy, I said, and
pop said, All rite then, go to it.
Wich did.

the same proportion as they bring dis
tresS to those whom they have pushed
aside as they surged forward. 1t is
when one helps others to rise in the
world, as they go up, that they find
true satisfaction in whatever they gain
Parents who help their children to
any prosperity know what this means.
Business men who supply persons with
work through their keen insight into
commercial opportunities or their skill
and ability TO put into operation their
ideas for world hetterment along any
line, mechanical, industrial, artistic,
social, etc, find a satisfaction in such
service which adds zest and actual Joy
to their undertakings.
The home is the nucleus from which
springs unSelfisn and selfish characters
1t is the parents who have the power
to instill into their children this in
spring idea that when they bring sue.
cess to others through their own sue
cess they are genuine leaders, whether
later in the wider ranges of world
affairs.
There Is a current idea that success
Is built up on SelfiShness This is a
superficial summary. Is it true of a
home? Is that q success when either
parent or any child dominates the fam
lily to his or her own ends regardless
of the interests or feelings of others?
One has only to cross the threshold of
such a home to realize that happiness
does not dwell therein, not even the
happiness of the one who is overriding
the others.
Success Is a word of co-operation.
No one can succeed by himself alone,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-11-20

But naturally this would take some
time.
Perhaps you can get chance to
teach at a private school.
Dear Miss Woodward Would you
kindly give me some advice as to what
/ should do? I don't know whether
to become a private secretary or an
actress.
II am IS years old and am tai
ented dancer. l am half through high
school. I've taken a secretarial course
ever since I started high school. 1
intend to graduate and start at the bot
tom. I've taken dancing lessons for
three years and continue to take them,
so I can't make up my mind what to do.
Some people say should go on the
stage, others say 1 should not. I love
both dancing and secretarial work, but
don't know which to choose. "E. c."
If you are determined to be a dancer,
then be ready for hard, long struggle.
Training to be a dancer means hard
work for years. But don't do 1t unless
you are encouraged by experts who
have no selfish reason for encouraging
you. If you are not prepared to do
that, better study shorthand and tipping.
You are too young to be private sec
rotary now. But you can study short
hand aid get a beginners job as
stenographer. After several years of
actual work at that you will be able
to be a private secretary.

education and experience necessary to
teach this fascinating work 1 would
certainly appreciate it very much.
MABEL
You cannot teach any subject, no
matter what it is, in any public schools
unless you have a college degree, are
graduate OF college, or in New York
have passed the State regents exani-
nation, which means you must have a
certain amount of college education.
You can, however, do this. You can
take courses in evening high school
which will give you credits, and then
you can take extension courses at Co
lllmbia University or some other college
which will also give you credits. Then
you can take the regents examination
and in this way you can prepare your
self without actually going tor college.

Handwriting
What 1t May Reveal.
BY MILDRED MOCKABEE.

THE graceful, swinging motion OF
this writing reveals charm
ing personality to us. The writ
i er is probably gifted person
in many ways. First, we should
expect her to have pleasant man
ner that would attract and hold
friends. Seemingly her company would
be constantly in demand for all kinds
of social activities
Her writing suggests quick, but never
hurried, movements. Apparently she
has a particularly acute sense OF
ryhthm. This would enable her to ac-
complish SO much more in short time
than the person whose speed is an
effort. Though there are extra strokes
in this writing, they are not waste mo-
ton, but merely completion of rhyth-
mic swing She should surely translate
this sense in other ways.
Undoubtedly she is an accomplished
dancer. Here she might give full sway
to her appreciation Of graceful motion ton
She possibly has artistic abilities also.
She might be especially interested In
design Here she might transfer to
paper, by means of brush or pen, this
sense of balance and poportion. There
is always opportunity for really
clever designiSt. 1t may be in straight
art work, for poster design or display
advertising Again she might make
use of her ability as fashion creator
The hook on the under part of the
IS" indicates determination. She may
overemphasize a tendency to boss"
Feeling that her own way is best, she
may try to force it on others. For
tunately, however, her charming man
ner will to a great degree hide
this less attractive trait. In her work,
this tenacity of purpose will aid her.
Frequently people with her social ten
denotes will neglect the sterner side OF
life. Her determination will help to
overcome this temptation.

and lots of fun. The Star presents the
