my motto anyway.
Since that time I've never had
to worry about unpleasant situa-
tions. I've desired respect and
chlvalry and have received them,
with interest. Also, I've had two
fine years at college, and every time
I've had a date I've done everything
1 possibly could to make my man
OF the evening las you put it, glad
that he invited me to share a good
time with him. I've tried hard to
become an expert dancer, to make
myself friendly and easy to enter
taln-and I've proved to my own
satisfaction that a girl who is ON
her toes doesn't have to permit lib
critics to be popular. You're per-
fectly right when you say that a
girl gets what she gives-nothing
more"
Johnny L. has this to say:
Most fellows are quick to accep.
girl at her own valuation. If they
see a girl petting with one of their
friends, they'll call her the next day,
perhaps, cut not because they want
a beautiful friendship.
Il like to kiss girls (who doesnt?),
but it's all the more fun for me to
do so if my girl is a bit Scotch
with them. If she'll let me kiss her
goodnight after date, practically
stumble home in a warm, happy
glow. I like the girl more than
ever because her gesture of affection
or liking wasn't ordinary; and I re-
spect her more than ever! AS for
petting. that's out with me"
=. And Barbara L. has the final
SAY:
Here are some tips for the young
men about town. I hope they will
follow them, as We girls have right
to be particular about romantic mo-.
ments :.
Never try to kiss a girl on a
first date. Never say. May 1 kiss
you?' because that timid. plaintive
approach infuriates many girls.
Never feel that you must become
romantic and adoring because the
other couple in the car has gone
into a clinch. Never feel that you
are Don Juan himself. You aren't!"

Interesting
Woman Is
Admired
By PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Deep in every woman's heart is
a very natural desire to be admired
and loved by those who know her.
In her own group she wishes to be
considered charming. That is, If
she is perfectly normal person
trying to fill her niche in society.
The rare quality of personality
which we call charm" depends
pretty much on ones approach to
living. If you look at life squarely
in the eyes, and meet its challenge
unf1inchingly, it is almost safe to
bet you possess charm. For active
interest in people and things, and
the ability to give of yourself, makes
you an interesting person. People
like you because you have something
to share with them and because you
are not dull. To be dull is to be a
bore, and I have yet to see a bore
emanating charm!
There are so many women who
feel neglected and sorry for them
selves that I cannot refrain from
being little severe in my opinion
of my sex. These women sit back,
make no effort at all to spread
themselves, and become sour per-
sonalities through their sel-pity
and inactivity. They feel the world
should come to them. Their friends
should make life interesting for
them. Not for q minute will they
turn a candid eye upon themselves
and ask the question: What do I
offer people? Why should I expect
others to be interested in me?"
You are interesting only If you
are interested. Remember that. And
it is your own fault If you have no
major or minor interests in your life.
You have become chronically self
centered and have shut of all ave-
nues of social contact with your fell
low beings.
Every woman should have a
hobby or several hobbies. It is up to
you to apply yourself to the study
or pleasure Of something. Choose a
hobby which will keep you actively
and vitality interested. Let it alb
sorb your free hours and let it nour-
ish your personality. If you keep
busy, self-pity will soon depart, for
there will be no time to entertain
it! And hobby provides you with
material for discussion and some
thing to share with other people.
It gives color to you and makes you
belong"

themselves.

by MARY ALLEN HOOD.
The subject of goldfish bowls is
q delicate one. People who know
exactly which fish is which without
checking a reference are up in
arms about those round globes.
They don't like them. They wax
violent and get purple in the face
at the sight of their pet peeve.
Many fish hits the sunset trail
through the use of goldfish globes.
It seems that fish must have a Ger
tain amount of oxygen, absorbed
through their gills to live. Water
gives them this which it has taken
from the air. But water can't absorb
oxygen if there's too little of its
surface exposed to the elements.
Roughly speaking, goldfish need
about 20 square inches of exposed
water surface per fish.
And another thing, Washington
water, or any city water for that
matter, as it comes from the tap,
isn't good for a fish's health. Has
too much chlorine in it. Now that
may be o. k. for human consump-
ton, but from fishy standpoint
its all big mistake. Any one who
has emerged with red eyes from
an ver-chlorinated swimming pool
will get the idea. Only it isn't just
the fish's eyes which shun chlorine,
it's the whole fish.
River or lake water is best for an
aquarium, but few and far between
are the mortals who'll journey to a
lake or river and bring back that
type of liquid, just to make a gold
fish happy. Besides. if they did, it
might not Immediately suit their
idea of purity. Not that the fish
would mind.

AlooNO1AAS Clllll. oIlc lids IIllS 10 say
" :. Why can't boys understand
that kisses should play a minor part
in teen-age friendships? Certainly
girls don't expect every friendship
to develop into a 'romance'-but
many boys do! They date girl two
or three times, then feel hurt if she
won't allow them to kiss her when
ever they want to.
II cannot become interested in
any boy who is greatly interested in
what is now called pitching WOO. I,
along with many other girls, resent
boorish attempts to turn a date into
a petting party. Most of us feel
complimented when We receive at
tention, but that kind of attention
is far from flattering :"
From a college man:
Il may be crazy but 1t is sweet
relief to find girl who doesn't wear
her lips or her heart. or both, on her
sleeve. Petting may be all right for
those who haven't the imagination
to think of anything else to do, but I
like a girls mind much better than
her lipstick.
"If were girl, I would use every
opportunity to make myself attrac-
tive as a comrade-not as a petting
partner. If a girl prefers sincere
interest to 'passes'-if she prefers
comradeship to cheap thrills, it's
easy enough for her to be really
popular -"
From an Eastern girl:
g. When I went away to school
I met many different types of boys,
most of them far more sophisticated
than those at home I listened open
mouthed to the cat session chatter
of the other goods. l heard wild
yarns in dormitory rooms. told over
a midnight snack. I heard that you
had to be peter to be popular; I
was told to go along with boys and
to be good sport I drank all this
hooey in but, fortunately, one little
obstinate part of my mind refused
to believe it.
my first real experience came
when I believed myself wildly in love
with Paul. He gave me his fraternity
pin and we had an understanding
Then the rude jolt came when I dis
covered that we had different ideas
about what wearing a fellows pin
should mean. I thought it meant
honor and respect and sincere af-
fection. Paul wanted only exclusive
petting privileges. And that was the

The Oval Face

The lucky woman with the oval
face has the ideal face.
You are stark, staring mad if you
narrow your beautiful, wide-sweep-
ing forehead with side bangs or
dips.
And you're just tossing away your
birthright if you let your hair stick
out awkwardly at the cheeks.
You can wear dramatically sim
pie coiffures or looser ones If you
prefer, providing they follow the ex-
cellent lines OF your face.
A center part IS most effective
for the oval face, probably because
its service simplicity calls attention
to your perfect features.
Because every line of this types
face should be oval, you may touch
up your brows bit-just enough to
give them low, oval arch.
An all too common error of this
type is to rouge the cheeks smack
in the middle. This narrows the

the counters, on mannequinS and
in fashion books, magazines and

down your basic outfit and plan
around it-you can do wonders by

Wear a Crisp

Get the fresh flower habit. Es-

of violets; with more formal after
noon classics, aecrisp carnation and
with your dinner suits-and there
will be many-an orchid if it is
bought for you-a gardenia if you
buy it yourself Really, the fresh
flower or two you may buy daily
is not expensive, especially when
warmer weather arrives. and it will
be such fun to have the reputa-
ton of always wearing a gay posy
in your lapel
Remember jewelry. 1t will be big

Look to your makeup. This
trend changes with the season, too
and what may have looked snappy
with winter togs may only be ri
dicuious with spring colors.
Remember that you can do a
great deal to hurry spring on its
way, in fact, you can make your
own season by the clothes you Sc

we don't freeze to death upon stick

When getting up in the morning is
not a shivering ordeal? When the
air is so sweet and everything smells

fashions emerge in all their gay

Accessories. This is going to be a

for there are certain definite tones
of fashion which have been done in
