GIO1iting Yourself
Hy Alicia Hart
NEA Service Stan Writer


 When, regardless of your own features, hair, disposition and type, you copy a screen stars hairdress, a society women's makeup or your best friends mannerisms, you are paying yourself a pretty sad compli- ment. In spite of hints to the con- trary, the way to make the most of your beauty is to dramatize your best points, play down the less ate tractive ones and De yourSelfl
 Nothing looks sillier than a Garbo hair cut on short, rather plump little thing who is the exact opposite of sophisticated. Or very painted lips, in the Joan Crawford manner, on a tiny woman whose features are dainty and finely chiSeled.
 Marlene Dietrich may look too, too lovely in floating tea gowns she wears on the screen, but that doesn't make trailing tea gowns quite right for the woman who cooks the dinner with her own two hands and serves It to her guests. Miss Dietrich does not dress that way herself unless she is playing a part. A practical view point is good thing to have, and there are hostess gowns and hostess gowns.
 If your are having coiffure prob- lens, do go to an expert hair dresser at least once, then work with him, submitting your own ideas, considering his, finally combining both and ending up with hairdress which flatters you and is in keep ing with your mode of life.
 No matter how much she dotes on intricate swirls and curls, a busy housewife who shampoos and sets her hair simply will not find them satisfactory. There are many hair styles which are easy to care for at home, but you have to have pa- tience to locate one.
 With an equal amount of pa- tience you can figure out ways and means to apply makeup to empha- size the beauty of your eyes, make your mouth seem prettier than 1t is or your chin line more perfectly formed. If you have not done any real experimenting with cosmetics in more years than you care to ad- mit get busy with all the rouge, lipstick, mascara and powder sam- ples you can collect and seriously go about the business of glorifying yourself.

WHY GO NEUROTIC?

WHY GO NEUROTIC?
 Many women who had been mis- erable with nerves" for years while they pursued amusement and social affairs and left all the do- mestic work to servants, have dis covered, they tell me, that on re- suming this work themselves, doing their own housework, washing, ironing, cleaning, cooking and all the rest of it, that it restores something like their former good health.
 Certainly no man who spends most of his time sitting on his ischial tuberosities or on his sacro- lilac Synchondroses, whether at a desk, on the boulevard or at the ballgame, can avoid growing more or less neurotic unless he realizes early in his sedentary career that he must get reasonable amount of exercise, best in the form of one or another kind of physical work or play, every day. As for the woman following business or pro- efssional career as her own boss or the self-immolating slave of her husband and children, certain amount of exercise is quite as necessary to keep her from becom- ing nervous" and prematurely old. &
 1 A generation or two ago women aged and developed weak nerves" earlier than men. Men outlived women. Today this difference is re- versed. Today men ageand become "neurasthenic" or neurotic and die, while their widows live on and en- joy life as everyone should.
 The reason for the premature breakdown of men is, in my opin- ion, sedentary living, insufficient physical activity, work or play, which is the indispensable, substi- tute for combat or flight. Wild animals and primitive men react to emotions by combat or flight. Civi- lized men just sit or stand and take it," try to dissemble or con- ceal their emotions and suppress their natural impulses-but the autonomic or unconscious nervous mechanism reacts, the adrenal glands pour into the blood an ex- cess of adrenin, the heart beats faster and stronger, the blood pressure rises, an excess of sugar is mobilized in the blood (fuel for the muscular effort. perhaps some of this sugar spills in the urine, and altogether the cardiovascuqlar apparatus suffers considerable abuse-which would be prevented by vigorous muscular work of any kind, or play, or exercise, in lieu of physical combat or actual flight
 Alcohol, tobacco and overeating of course contribute to the damage of the heart-artery-kidney brain system, but lack of regular daily exercise, best in the form of play or work, is, in my opinion, the chief cause of what the physio- logically ignorant Yankee wise- acre likes to call nervous break down" or nervous exhaustion"
 Why be a neurotic? Why moi plan your life to include a req sonable daily stint of physical work, play or exercise of one kind or another and keep your balance and save needless wear and tear on your heart and arteries?

No getting stuck" for Joan. And no looking the other way" when Tom asks for dance.

 And how easily Tom leads Joan and how smoothly she followsl He holds her straight in front of him, lightly but firmly. When he changes direction he turns his shoulders little, gives a quick pres- sure of arm or hand. Joan re- spends instantly.
 You, too, can learn to dance per- fectly from our 32-page booklet. In- structions and easy diagrams for waltz, fox-trot, rumba, tango. A complete home course.

HZA1gksEVIU
 Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

One Of the finest stories ever written was Henry Van Dykes tale of the wise men who started out to give gifts to the newborn Child Jesus.
 But there was fourth wise man, who also bore jewels of great price, and he never reached his destina- tion. On his way he saw so much trouble and sorrow that he was driven through sympathy to deplete his store.
 He never lost sight of his goal, but as he wandered through the years, helping this poor soul and that, he at last died without any, thing left to present to his Lord.
 believe no one can read this story without sigh, and likening his lot with that of the "other wise man" who saw so much to do at hand that he failed to satisfy his hearts desire.
 OstentatiOn Versus MOdesty
 There are two kinds of gener- osity, one that fills the giver with a sense of fulfillment and content, and the other that daily takes its toll of patience and kindness without drama or glory to the donor.
 Both are made of celestial stuff, and there is no detriment to the more spectacular kind of giving, just because the other is so modest and unsung.
 Yet, as far as character goes, and the effect on him who daily does his kindness without recog- milton. the hidden generosity is without peer.
 In childhood, to give without either appreciation or return for certain sacrifices is reaching down into roots of personality indeed.
 A child may give half his candy or lend his toys and deserve the applause of his parents, which in- ded he should have. But to run and help hurt child. or to share his possessions unbeknownSt to others, is the finest attribute he can have.
 To cultivate generosity of spirit in child is not an easy thing to do. It has to be ingrained by ex- ample rather than precept. Parents Set the Example Kindly, generous parents. ever willing to do little services for others, not only friends but those outside their daily orbit who can never re- pay a gift, will discover in time that their children also will gravi- tate to this silent giving. Once I saw parents make a dcm- 0lstration of their two little daugh-
