he's continued to be HER man
throughout the years.
How often we see younger
women, careless In their appear
ance, careless in their dress. Care
less in their use Of cosmetics. And
every young man worth having
knows that if the young woman
hasn't learned how to care for her
self, any cOSmetologist or hair
dresser will be glad to take a few
minutes time and tell the young
woman what procedure and what
cosmetics are best for her.
Another Tip from Grandma
Grandma is also careful with her
hair. She brushes it. She tints it
to avoid any drabness or discolora-
ton. She washes it carefully, and
regularly.
She's careful to be neat and clean
all over not just in outward
appearance. s-----.
Let's pause a bit in the GOODNESS
of the Fall months to take another
look at grandma. The Fall Of the
year rivals the Spring of the year
for beauty and romance. And
grandma, in the fall of her own life,
can tell granddaughter, in the
spring of her life, what to do and
how to do it.
Beauty means romance and
romance means greater beauty in

What is your trump card In the
game of romance?
It's your femininity! And you
should never forget that fact. Be
a pal. Be a companion. Be help
mate. But remember that first, last
and always you are a woman, ana
that man expects woman to be
feminine.
I sometimes think that grand
mother was much wiser than tOday's
modern girl. She never made the
mistake of making herself cheap.
No lad could come and whistle her
out of the house and have her CRATE
fully follow him. He had to show
her the courtesy of coming to her
door, hat in hand.
Grandma also had Shrewd
knowledge that man does not crave
the over-ripe fruit that is ready to
drop into his mouth. 1t Is the peach
that hangs highest on the tree-that
Is the hardest to get.
So she saved her kisses for the
man to whom she gave her heart
and who had filed bOna-fide pro-
posal of marriage with her father.
Nor did she feel that she had to
pay for being treated to a 15-cent
soda.
And grandma stayed married .
while one out of six of her grand
daughters visits the divorce court !!
Beauty Means Romance
I think grandma was wise enough
to study the man she hoped to
marry and to study the man she
did marry. And she was wise
enough to continue to be romantic
after marriage.
Strangely enough, it is grandma
today who Is clean and starched,
neat and bright whenever HER man
is around. That's one reason why

People Of all ages need calcium
and few today get a sufficient

The best and the cheapest source
of calcium is in dairy products.
The lower the income for food,
the greater the need for more of
