of ever having jobs important enough to be called careers.
 But so many of them let their work get them down. They have mt learned the secret of enjoying the hours that are theirs to do with as they please-of having fun to look back on and fun to look for- ward to.
 Their holidays catch them with out plans and so are frittered away. They excuse themselves for not hav- ing any real friends on the ground that they haven't any place to en- certain. They tell themselves how much fun they would have if they only had more money.
 With nothing much to think about but their dull jobs, they grow cranky, jealous of fellow workers, and sour-faced.

Yes, those new, m-silhouette, beltless frocks ARE smart-but they require the most f1aWlessly smooth foundation garments. And that's where Pattern TIT by Claire Tilden comes in! It's such an amazingly easy style to cut. to fit, to stitch, that it makes a perfect first sewing lesson for a beginner. with the Sew Chart right on hand to play teach err. You can see by the open dia- gram how few pattern parts there are to the slip. The front, including the straps, is all in one piece with waistline darting to keep the lines smooth. The back is nicely pam elled for faultless fit and perfect ease for the heavier figure. There's shadow-proof panel that's op- tional but so important especially with through, sheer frocks. Both well-cut bloomers or panties are in- cluded with this pattern-each with elastic at the waist. Because you're feminine-at-heart and love luxur- iouS touches, use lace edging at the bottom of the panties or bloomers, and all around the neck and arm- holes of the slip. A must have" style-make two or three of each.
 Pattern TIT is cut in women,s sizes 34, 36. 38, 40, 42 A, 46. 48 and 50. Size 36, slip and panties, re- quires 3 3-4 yards 39 inch fabric and yards lace edging.

DECIDE TO MAKE

 They would be far happier if they would say to thmselves, "This job bores me, but it is the best I can get at present. Chances are I'll never have one that is much more interesting. So will do it without wasting any energy on hat ing it. do it just as goo that must be done. But I'll have the best time possible in the hours that belong to me-"
 They don't teach you that kind of philosophy in the up-and-at-'em success books. But the girl who req lizes she isn't going to be big suc- cess in the business world might just as well decide to be successful at living.

Mantel decorations are espe. cially nice and here is a novel one three gaily dressed English carolers framed in a festoon of green. And best of all you can make these little figures yourself from bits of crepe paper, wire. and cotton for a few dimes. The bodies are made of wire padded with cotton and wrapped with strips of crepe paper. The heads are cylinders of crepe paper stuffed with cotton with the features painted on. The mandolin player has rust-colored boots, a green tunic, and sand-colored hat. The lantern bearer has a red cap, sleeves, ana boots, a san6-colored body. and a blue belt. The carol singer reverses these colors with his hood and belt of red. boots and sleeves of blue, and sand-coloTed body.
 To make the heads, make a tube of double thickness of peaeh-coloreo crepe paper 5" deep and 5" in cir conference. Stuff the tube with cot ton and tie 1t 1ls" from top and bottom with spool wire.

THEY HAVE EVERYTHING BUT
 THE BABY

TMEx HAVE EVERYTHING BUT
 THE BABY
 Here is composite letter from too many correspOndenst:
 Dear Dr. Brady:
 What chances has a woman 39 years of age of safely bearing her first child? Depression forced us to postpone marriage ten years. We could have been married sooner, had we not had obligations and not been too proud to take a chance of going on welfare. We have been married three years. have kept my job to help get established. We have no bills, have good health and little saved for rainy day. Now life would be perfect with a baby to hold. I would be willing to endure anything for healthy child, but I don't want to de, and wouldn't wish to bear delicate child. (Mrs. ---)
 If a woman of forty can roll a sornersault, climb a tree and jump over a gate, she need have no fear of childbirth. Accurate records of childbirth in a large series of cases showed that the healthy woman who bears her first child at forty may expect a normal delivery.
 I said healthy woman. If the tests mentioned seemed at all out of lines to a woman in her tlairties she is probably not a healthy women at all but one who has grown perma- turely old.
 Ought to be a law against old women getting married. Old codgers too.
 From the number of such letters I receive it would seem that there are too many married folk--it is hardly fair to call them families that have everything but the baby. By the time they begin to think that maybe they can afford to have a baby, there ain't goin' to be any baby.
 If were king I'd issue an order in council making 1t obligatory for every married couple to have at least one child within three years after marriage, and I'd impose a stiff an- Ilual tax or fine on such couples until they had babies of their own or adopted some.
 After all, it may be just as well for the country if folk of that sort remain childless forever. am speak ing of people who marry and inten- tionally remain childless.
 On the other hand. people who marry and suffer the sad disappoint- u1ent of childleeSnesS deserve all the sympathy and help we can give them.
 It should be remembered that marriage is not fairly considered barren or frllitless until three years have passed. Then, if conception has not occurred, it is time to consult the physician. It should be remem- bered, also, that the man is at least as likely as the woman to prove the sterile partner in . barren marriage. It is foolish and extrayagant to as- sume that the woman is sterile, until the mans fertility has been estab- lished by microscopical test.
