Is don't be In too much OF a hurry.
Don't be too eager to take new
friends to your bosom before you've
had q chance really to find out
something about them. Don't b
the first to raise your hand In class
because you want to impress your
teacher or classmates. Don't b the
first to try a Silly new hair.do. or
bright shade Of polish. Don't Be too
quick to say something you'll re-
gret later.
Don't be afraid. Have opinions Of
your own as long as you have rea.
sons to back them up. Decide what
you like and what you don't and
stick up for 1t. Don't wear your
clothes q certain way Just because

show q little individuality. Don't be
afraid Of what people viii say.
Don't be afraid to be courteous and
kind. Do q favor for others coca.
sionally even though they have
never done anything special for
you. Most Of Us Ike to pay back our
obligations. but It's the little extras
In thoughtfulness that help to
make you popular.
Be Different
Teen age girls (boys. too. for
that matter) think It's terribly i'm
portant not to be different: not
to wear different clothes: not to act
dumb, or seem clumsy. You arc
right-partlyl You should do and
look the best you can. But don't let
some little thing stand In the way
of your self confidence and poise.
Numerous others feel the same way
you do, about themselves.
Remember. too. there u not Just
one right" That dress you wore to
an out-of.town party was prob
ably appropriate. even though no
one else wore one like It. The crowd
was all right even though 1t was
different from your usual bunch. II
Is only when you don't know the
boys and girls that you feel strange
and out Of place. :.
Another rule Is. don't be too loud
in your ways. This doesn't mean
you should do things on the sly, but
don't blunder into situations that
everyone has to know about. II
you're not sure what to do. expert
ment quietly. Don't advertise your
mistakes. And don't be In too much
Of q hurry to air your opinions.
Don't talk so loudly that everyone
in sight hears you. Don't wear con-
spicuous clothes or Startle your
teacher by wearing smeary upStick
and brilliant nail polish to school.
Little mistakes may pass BY un-
noticed II you keep quiet about
them and resolve to do better next
time.
Try TO Be Natural
Trust your instincts more. II you
will only give them q chance they'll
lead you out Of many trying stu"
ations. How can you do It? BY try
ing to put yourself In the other per-
sons shoes occasionally. This isn't
easy. but remember that others
are trying to get along. too. and u
you will only try to make them feel
at ease, you can forget about what
YOU are doing. Unconsciously you'll
probably do the right thing and by
SO doing. you'll not only make the
other person comfortable. but also
you'll forget to be troubled and un-
sure about yourself.
Do all you can In q material way
too. The knowledge that your dress
Is freshly pressed. your undergar.

nails and hands immaculately
clean can do much to give you an
inner confidence. The good look;

SHAKESPEARE
(New York Sum

NNSW xOIk 5uHJ
 The tercentenary of SHAKE SPEARE's death In 1916 ought to have been the occasion for a gran- diose and worldwide commemora- . ton, but the war dimmed 1t. Today 1t is just 325 years since the "pestl- lent scythe" of death cut down the excellent Bard, and again the times are not propitious for Q fitting mem- orial. The date will pass unnoticed by most.
 It is a good time, nevertheless, for tho peoples of the English speaking world to mediate on how much SHAKESPEARE has contrib uted to the unity and solidarity of that world. The language we speak every day is, more than we realize, of SEAxEsPEARE'S creation; we quote him unconsciously dozens of times a day, More than that, the spirit and the ideas of SHAKE SPEARE are those for which men of his race and language have al- ways been ready to fight and die. His is the spirit of human equality and human dignity, that which we call democracy. Tyrants he lashed with scorpions. There is comfort and courage to be gleaned from SHAKESPEARE in these times in this troublous world.

The straw hats for l04i are going to Ee youthful, as gay or as con- Servative as ones individual taste dictates.

It Is transforming the swamp grasses of Brazil into handsome cool hats in all felt hat shapes and styles and colors that are bright and consonant with summer clothes. As Q matter Of fact that chemical industry has helped to provide dyes for straws where dyes never held before.

 Key to the fateful battle of the Mediterranean which is about to burst inj full fury Is not the Suez Canal, but Britain's great naval base at Alexandria, l26 miles west of the canal entrance.
 1t is the capture Of Alexandria that the Na2is are after, for this would deprive the British of their key "bridgehead" in northern Africa and ensure Axis domina. ton of the eastern Mediterranean. So in coming days, watch the war dispatches from Alexandria.
 Actually, the Suez Canal itself has been of little value to the British for months. It went out of use as the so-called "life-line Of the empire" when the Axis air attack that severely damaged the aircraft carrier Illustrious proved 1t was suicidal to attempt to con- voy shipping through the long and narrow Mediterranean Sea.

Who's to Arrest Who?

When a country has large army - andand the United States is rapidly building one - there are always prob lems of the relations between soldier and civilian. One of them is now being batted about by the American Municipal Association. It's this: When Private Jones goes to town and drives through a red light, who's going to arrest and punish him? The local police and courts, or the military authorities? In time of war the association finds, military authorities have the first claim on Jones, except in the case of murder when both the civil and military have concurrent jurisdiction.
 But this is peace time, and in the case of minor offenses. the local police still have precedence, which is not to say that Jones company commander can't still have him on the carpet after he gets back to camp. or course if Jones offense is committed on a military reservation, it's up to the military authorities. If it's in town, it's up to the police. In every city where many soldiers and sailors go when off duty, however, close cooperation should be undertaken between local and camp authorities, however, both to sec that city laws and ordinances are kept, and that the soldier on pass gets a square deal.

THOSE WHO WON THE AWARD
(Rridgeport Times-star)


 Monday evening, in Washington, Governor Robert A. Hurley was guest of honor at the annual dinner of the National Safety Council and received for Connecticut the Coun- cil's award for the best 1940 safety record of any state in the union.
 Modestly, Governor Hurley re. ceived the award lon behalf" of those who made Connecticut's safe- ty record possible = the motorists themselves, the enforcement agen- cies, the volunteer safety groups, and Ion behalf of our state depart- ments and commissions who through their engineers, technicians, re- search personnel and motor vehicle administrator have effected high- way safety program which during l04O ranked second to none."
 It was a fine anL true and gra- cious acknowledgement.
 Against that statement, we find 1t difficiilt to believe that Governor Hurley seriously intends, now that he IS back in Connecticut, to dismiss from office Motor Vehicle Commis- sioner Michael A. Connor, the irl- dividual whose enlightened and pro- gressive and persistent safety poli- cies did most to bring this award

items, he said. Eventually, VI. shall have plenty of shells, plenty of tanks, plenty of planes. But it is now, during the next hundred days, that they are needed. It is now that the certain assurance that they will be produced on schedule is needed no less urgently.
 During these coming hundred days, the United States, by the united will of its people, democraticaily determined, wants exactly what Biggers called for: Work, sacrifice, unselfishness, genuine national unity" T believe" he said, "that if every one really understood the importance of national defense, selfshness would dis Appear, and selfishness is the basis of most of our problems" American Workmen and American employers are intelligent, free men. Surely it must be plain to both that their future is bound up con- pletely with the proposition that the American republic can, must, and will carry out the task it has set itself-the task of turning out as fast as humanly possible the tools of war for the defense of those who are now bravely grappling with aggression, tools of war for the ultimate defense of the republic
 That common sense view will, we are sure, at length govern employers who may have "hoarded" defense materials beyond need who may have resisted social trends, who may have undertaken tardily their defense assignments. It will govern labor leaders and workmen who may have placed organizational rivalries, political Hines" or fear of some vague future dis advantage ahead of present production. The coming hundred days will tell whether the United States can still do the job. We have the uttermost faith that she can, and will.

Meets With Approval

There seems to be almost unanimous approval of the proposed changes in the Connecticut Merit System Act that bi- partisan legislative group has just recom- nended. Of course there is opposition; it is natural that there should be. Any changes in laws that are supposed to pro- vide for elimination of politics in state jobs would be bound to provoke it. But from sources that might be expected to complain there is only praise for what the Legislature hopes to do. After all the Connecticut law has not lived up to the expectations of those who urged it in the beginning.
 There have been number of obvious faults and certainly among state em- ployes it has come to be sort of joke to refer to civil service requirements and the merit system. If we're going to make positions in the state government depend on merit, then we should do so all around A better plan is the hope of the Investigating committee. It will be better plan, too, if the administrators live up to expectations and don't fall short of the requirements.
 The Bridgeport Post made a very good recommendation the other cay in this respect. It pointed out that any state poSition begins and ends with service Those who work for the government are entrusted with job whose proper ful- fillment is service to the general public. If civil service employees believe that once appointed such service is at an end, then there is no real need of civil service. That's sound advice. After all, all gov ernmental employees are working to make a living, but their service is a peculiar one-its aim is to provide better govern ment by skilled and efficient service.

One Hundred Hateful Days

He could say except that they were fearful, that they had forsaken Him, that one had denied Him with curses, and another had sold Him for thirty pieces Of silver.
 The most embarrassing question that can ever be asked our Lord is the question concerning His dis ciples Are their standards conspicu- ously higher than those of the un- believer? Are they uEselfiish and willing to put the welfare of others before their own? Do they relaly live up to the Sermon on the Mount?
 The questions of course answer themselves. The greatest embarrass- ment the Christian Church experi- enesc is the lives of many people who call themselves Christians. It is when the Lord is asked concerning His disciples that He blushes with shame.
 The greatest need in the Church is not some stream-lined scheme for catching and holding the atten- ton of the unbe:lever. The greatest need is that those who claim to be Christians actually live up to what they profess to believe.

Rumors of wholesale shifts in state departments are heard on every side these days. It seems safe to say that good many Hurley appointments will be made within the next eight or nine days. Af- ter that what happens is anyone's guess, but it does seem very likely that there will be some quiet but effective shifting behind the scenes.

Whether or not the party is convinced eX-Governor Raymond E. Baldwin seems convinced that he is the best hope of the Republican party for the 1922 guberna- torial contest He isn't losing any op- portunty to let this fact be known. The Waterbury Young COP convention of last weekend was just one of the occasions Therell be more. Republicans arc quite confident that they can win an off-year election. They don't think that Gov Robert A, Hurley can carry the Democra- tic party to victory when he isn't run ming with presidential candidate like Franklin D. Roosevelt. But they said the same things about eX-Governor Wilbur L. Cross, although his first election, 1t must be remembered, actually came in an off-election year That was an ac- cident, they said, and two years later 1t was the Democratic landslide. After that 1t was different story, because Repub- licans realized their hold was broken. They might make the same mistake again in 1942 and Gov Hurley certainly will be out to convince them they have.
