Why Grow
Old?
BY Josephine Lovman

Last day of the nine-day gaining
diet
The underweight person often is
nervous and energetic. She moves
unnecessarily. It's easier for her TO
do things than to ask others to do
them for her. She is likely to fidget
while she sits, and to indulge in all
kinds of unnecessary motions.
In fact, she seldom relaXes, even
when sitting. Enormous amounts of
energy are lost in nervous manner
isms which tell Of nervous tension.
She may swing her foot vigorously
cross her legs, or tap the arm of the
chair from sheer nervousness.
If you are underweight you should
try to relax at every opportunity. 1t
is entirely possible to rest while rid
ing on a bus, subway or in a car If
you will deliberately let yourself go
limp. The art of snatching mo-
ments of rest at odd moments is
something which can be learned if
thought is applied to it. Relax
while you wait at the beauty parlor,
or while you are en- route to various
places, or while you watch for the
children outside the school door
Nervous women should also watch
for tensenesS in the face. Nothing
ages our facial contour more rapidly.
Keep the tongue and the jaw re-
laxed. Check yourself on this con-
stantly or tension will make your
face rigid, pull its contour down.
ward and put froWn lines or squint
lines around the eyes.

Well.Known Model
Gives Good Advice

Those thousands of girls who see
q career in modelling as a stepping
stone TO fame, fortune and all the
silver foxes they can carry Will
be interested In new book,
"Wanted-Girl With Glamour" "
Written by Olga Malcova and pub
Nshed by Duell, Sloan & Pearce,
q Is an encouraging handbook for
those who think modelling would
be profitable fun.
The author is herself a well-knoWn
model, well able to give cold, hard
facts about the branches of model
ing work, such as wholesale, retail,
Photographic and others. She
knows, too, the various ways of
finding a job and the wages to be
expected. Miss Malcova admits
that the attainment of success as
q model is no easy achievement
and that the requirements are stiff,
but she is. despite her protesta-
tions, optimistic about the chances,
more so. perhaps, than this reviewer.
"s If you can learn to like the
mad world in which professional
models live" says the famous
beauty, then come and be one Of
us. There's plenty of room for
you."
Briefly, the book will be devoured
by those who want the inside story
on the modelling profession. How
ever, it is hoped that they will
see Miss Malcovas success as some
thing of a rarity, not to be PROM
tsed every youngster who hopes for
top billing as a glamour girl.

them to tears the next, and this
holds good of husbands and wives
as we'll as motor cycles and new
hairdoS
It takes a lot of things beside
sentiment to make go of marriage.
1t takes tact and SteadfastnesS OF
purpose, and the ability to take pun
ishment. and money. and so 1t is no
wonder when two kids, who have
none of these qualifications, face
the stern realities of matrimony,
they throw up their hands and quit.
The difference in age between
husband and wife does not matter
unless it is too great. A few years
either way is of no consequence. Age
cannot always be computed by the
calendar. 1t is a matter of soul, of
spirit, of temperament, and this
makes it safe for a quiet, sedate,
thoughtful girl to marry a man
IS or 80 years older than she is,
especially If he is one of the kind
of men who is boyish and enthu-
siastic.
But this rule does not work both
ways, and it is a disastrous thing
for q woman to marry man who IS
much younger than she is. Perhaps
this is because men are less adapt
able than women are. Perhaps it IS
because they are less home making
and less willing to be fireside COM
panions. Perhaps it is because men
demand more in the way of per-
sonal appearance of their wives
than women do of their husbands.
Perhaps it is because women are
older at the same age than men are.
Perhaps it is because old women
cannot befool themselves so easily
into believing that they can inspire
love in youthful breast as men do.
No matter how many times she
has her face lifted. nor what color
she dyes her hair, nor how religiously
she counts her calories, the old wife
of young husband knows that she
looks like his mother instead Of his
bride and that he is ashamed of
her No matter how she strives
against 1t, she cannot help being
eaten up with jealousy every time
she sees him with a girl of his own
age.

Even if you're the most brilliant
debater in captivity, getting into
disputes with your friends won't be
much satisfaction to you. The cold
fact of the matter is that not one
person in 10 will ever have his
opinions changed by your elo-
quence and your logic, simply be-
cause those opinions of his are mat
ters of feeling rather than thinking.
This is particularly true when you
get onto such subjects as religion
and politics-domestic or interna-
tional. Religious beliefs are mat
ter of faith, and challenging them
