WOMEN TlAIiKdNG!

No doubt you Kennewick men
have often wondered what women
talk about when they get together
a1ad probably privately felt it could
all he covered by using the word
gossip" Maybe you flattered your
self that they talked mostly about
men, hoping it was all for the best!
But it seems that women spend
three times as much talk on clothes
as on men. There are places where
women gather that they exchange
words ON books, but more places
where they exchange talk on parties.
In your beauty shops, clothing shops,
washrooms and so on. women con-
verse fluently in this lineup. Thir-
ty percent talk about clothes, twelve
percent choose men, eight percent
like church, club and school activi-
ties, six percent discuss beauty aids,
five percent take pleasure in their
operations and travels. We always
figured the latter would rate higher,
but you never can tell until sur
vey comes along. The remaining
eighteen percent cover the field from
philosophy to bow-legs, so you must
admit a woman's conversation is
variable and surely all-enveloping.

BAD TEMPERS

They are always trying things out
in laboratories and finding out cures
and causes. We read recently where
some scientists have measured bad
temper by testing twenty small boys,
with a difficult sort of game they
awarded them poker chips for cor
rect guesses. Ten chips gave them
a reward of their favorite bar of
candy. Then, after calling line of
wrong guesses" against them, the
boys became upset and angry and
consequently reacted to the test by
tensed muscles and perspiration.
This then gave the scientists an op-
portunity to study each case Of bad
temper. They found that where the
temper is shown the getting over 1t"
IS accomplished more easily than
when the child is outwardly calm
and inwardly seething. Whatever
difference this makes in our daily
lives we don't know, in fact, it Is a
situation that most of us have al
ready discovered for ourselves, but
