BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

To most of us, Labor Day signifies
the beginning of the end of sum-
mer! We look ahead to new sea-
son, we plan our duties, our work,
and say good-by to the casual days.
With somewhat OF sigh we muir
mur, Another summer passed."
and prepare ourselves for whatever
fall and winter will bring. Nature
so designs 1t, that when one season
draws to a close we welcome the
next!
But the mistake so many women
make, in planning for the autumn
is that they fail to put aside enough
time for health and beauty! They
rush into the chores at hand and
try to spread the health they gained
during summer over the next six
or nine months! Consequently late
winter or early spring finds them
the worse for wear, 50 to speak. with
little or no vitality left. Some,
whose endurance is not so great,
find themselves seriously i'll. Rather
than face the truth Of too little
leisure, too few hours in the sun,
poorly balanced meals, they say
to themselves, II guess I'm getting
old; I can't do the things I used
to dol"
Age, my dears. has nothing what
ever to do with 1t. But sensible liv-
ing has a lot to do with it. Ameri-
can women must learn that they
cannot burn the candle at both ends.
And by that I do not insinuate that
the majority Of American women
seek pleasure into late night hours
and work hard during the day. But
I do insinuate that their bodies will
take Just so much work, without
relaxation and nourishing food, be-
fore they rebel violently-and they
find themselves disheartened, weary
women. Perhaps ILL.,.
Work and worry can rob you OF
years of happiness If you permit
them to get the upper hand. Work
we must, some harder than others,
but we can and should determine
the amount OF work we are able to
do without destroying our bodies.
Nothing is gained If you work so
hard Ito economic or to relieve
others that your health is impaired
and you find yourself requiring an
operation or a six-month complete
rest! If you had gone at more
even pace you would have spared
yourself and those you love the
horrible months Of convalescence.
You might try this year to
make q resolution! Take an hour
to reason clearly. Determine to
get some sun, some exercise and
some rest each day. Decide now
that your meals will be well
balanced. You will eat fresh
and cooked fruits and vegetables.
You will drink milk. Your meat
dishes Cor fish and egg dishes) will
be carefully planned. And last, but
not least, you will have some leisure
during which you will enjoy your
self!
All work and no play makes any
person dull. And q dull woman Is
never poised and beautiful. She is
lust plain dull. Some entertainment
is due you, see that you get it. II
your purse is meager Gas most
every ones Isl seek pleasure which
Is not costly. Hobbies can provide
much fun and relaxation, and cost
little. The important thing is to
get your mind of your work routine
and relax! We want next spring to
find you fit as fiddle and with all
your charm intact!
