You must not forget that physical
exercise is essential if you are to
overcome the tension which nervous
strain and mental work bring. Few
persons have the time to invest
daily in a golf game or a tennis

exercise on week ends is valuable,
but the most beneficial of all exer-

as a regular part Of your living. A
few simple exercises taken at night

Introducing
Yourself
State Background
For Benefit of
The Hostess
Bv Emily Post

A young man who has come from
the far West to live in one of the
great cities of the Atlantic Sea-
board, wants to know how to in
troduce himself to a certain promi-
nent hostess, who was evidently a
friend of his mothers, and ex-
plains the situation as follows:
Some years ago my mother came
to visit a prominent hostess here,
who before her marriage. came from
our home town in the West. I
would very much like to meet this
lady-it would be wonderful to
know someone who once lived in my
own part of the country, and espe-
cially one who knew my mother.
II cannot ask mother for a let
ter because she died several years
ago. I wish you would tell me
whether it would be proper for
me to call on this lady. If yes,
then when should I go?'
My advice is that you write her
a note, tell her briefly who your
mother was and why you have
come East to live. Then add that
you would like very much to go to
see her some day if she is not too
busy. Give her your address and
if possible, a telephone number that
will reach you, and also some idea
of your time schedule After this
YOU will have to leave it to her tc
invite you to her house.

Manners
of the
Moment

It is a horrible feeling to extend
your hand for nice friendly hand
shake and have the person whom
you are greeting look you straight
In the eye without raising a finger.
1t makes you feel conspicuous, ag-
gressive and unpleasantly awkward.
OF course, there are several ways
out of such a dilemma. One is to
make wide, sweeping gesture with
your hand and lift it up to your
head to pat your hair. Another way
is to reach over and grab the other
persons hand, whether she likes it
or not. And third way is to drop
your hand back into place and move
on.
These non-handshakers often
consider themselves pretty high
toned. Forget em. They aren't.

The discarded wife always poses
as a martyr and calls upon her
friends and acquaintances to shed
tears of pity over her. Sometimes
she is, in reality, the victim OF mans
perfidy and deserving Of all the SYM
pathy she can get. But in the great
majority of cases the woman who
loses her husband does so because
she has made no honest and intelli-
gent effort to keep him. For, sad
to say. a vast number of women
are not square shooters in the mat
rimonial game.
This is true both sentimentally
and materially. Everywhere you
hear wives beating upon their
breasts and wailing because their
husbands take them for granted
and no longer tell them how beau
tiful and wonderful they are or be-
stow upon them burning kisses in
stead of those that are as flabby as
a cold flapjack But it does not
occur to these neglected wives that
they should be lovers, and that
their husbands are just as starved
for affection as they are and crave
a little flattery themselves. Wives
expect their husbands to be good
providers and to furnish them with
pretty homes, good clothes and the
various and sundry luxuries that
soft-pad existence, but thousands
upon thousands of them never feel
that they are under any moral COM
pulsion to make their husbands
comfortable homes and that it is
Just as much their duty to fry the
bacon properly as it is their hus-
bands to bring it home.
The truth is that many women
are either too stupid or too be-
sotted with selfshness to ever face
the fact that marriage is a business
at which they must work just as
hard and continuously as they would
at any other job if they would make
a success Of it.
They have to keep putting theil
heads and their hearts and theil
backs into it every day of theii
lives if they make 60 of it, anc

step out onto the sidewalk to see
the effect it has. If the house Is
balanced in shape with center en-
trance, you may decide to concen-
trate all your efforts there. If 1t
has a side entrance, balanced by
an ell or garage, it might be we'll to
repeat the entrance decoration with
a secondary lighting at the other
end. Keep in mind the Christmas
card effect and use the shape OF
YOUR house. any spectacular trees
or shrubbery on the property, and
even the hedge at the property line
to help make the picture.
Don't forget the charm OF candles,
in case it is not convenient TO ar
range for electric lighting. This, OF
course. must be done with reSerVa-
tions, as there is fire hazard When-
ever the flame comes into contact
with evergreens or wood construction.
However. the hurricane lamps that
graced the garden last summer may
be used again at Christmas. Plant
the ones on iron spikes at equal
intervals in the clipped privet hedge
along the front of your house. II you
haven't hedge, place the lamps on
standards up the walk to your front
door. Attach garlands of evergreen
between the standards and tie each
one with big red bow.
If you have charming gate at
the entrance to your house, place
cut-out Merry Christmas in il
Illuminated letters across the top OF
the gate, or if you have the house
at the bend of the road you can get
effective results with letters studded
with reflector buttons so that each
approaching car will fash your mes
sage on and of.
Try all the old ideas done in a
direct, unaffected manner, or carry
out an original idea with l941 mate
rials which may set new fashion.
Among the most effective of the
new decorations are those made OF
plastic which glow with deep luster
when exposed to special BLACK"

Dorothy Dix Says
Wives Should Be Square Shooters
To Make Marriage Successful

things slide. They have to keep
their husbands happy and interested
and jollied up If they want to hold
them. They have to make their
homes comfortable if they expect
their husbands to stay in them.
In proof Of all this, read this let
ter from a woman whose husband
recently said to her:
1--WE have been married % years.
You have nagged me and been
Jealous of me and accused me of
every sin under the sun when you
knew positively that l was innocent.
You have made yourself out as a
saint and me as miserable sinner
so that you could feel superior to me
and have a grievance against me.
Ever since we have been mar
ried you have sought to dominate
me and to have your own way In
even the very smallest things. You
have never tried to improve your
mind or to control your temper. No
human being has the right to make
another person as unhappy as you
have made me.
Now I have found woman who
gives me all the happiness and love
you have never given me, but be-
cause you are not in good health I
have told her there is no hope for
divorce I will live in the same
house with you. but I will not live
with you. I will support you and
keep on being as patient with you as
I have tried to be all these years
that we have been married. but you
shall not part me from the woman
I love. The price you will have to
pay for your folly and the way you
have treated me is the loss Of my
love and respect"
And this woman asks: What
shall do to get my husband back?'
1t is a question that would be
ludicrous if it were not so tragic
for, alas, in life we pass this way
but once and we cannot undo the
wrongs that we have done: We can.
not wash out our mistakes with oul
tears Of repentance. The only
atonement this wife can make to hel
husband for the years she has made
desolate to him is by ceasing tt
tyrannize over him and by showing
some appreciation of the great sac.
rifice he is making for her.

Meanwhile, the congregations
are pushing their own individual
membership drives, which were
launched simultaneously with
mailing of a letter by the inter-

unaffiliated families in the city,
asking them to join a congrega-

The information from Warsaw,
coming through a neutral country,
says that food in the Warsaw
ghetto is so scarce that death
from starvation is a daily occur
renee. Typhus epidemics are much
more serious than it is realized
outside of the ghetto. One can
see Jews actually falling dead in
the street as result of hunger
and disease.
The situation in the Warsaw
ghetto is typical of the Jewish
situation in the whole of NaZi
held Poland, the information dis
closes. Mere bread has become a
luxury to Jews who cannot OBJ
tain even the meagre portion of
three ounces a day allotted to
them nominally on their bread
cards. The entire harvest from
the Polish fields is sent to Ger
many, with the Nazi authorities
caring very little about what will
happen to the starving population
in the occupied territory.
In addition to actual hunger,
the Jews in the Warsaw ghetto
live in fear of possible excuses
as a result of the intensified anti
Jewish propaganda now conducted
in the Nazi press, directed especi-
ally against the Jews of Poland.
