Someone has said, ~All women
have legs and all men look at
them" IL the last part of this
statement Is true, none of us can
be too careful about leg grooming.
OF course, there is a limit to what
we can do about the shape of our
legs, but there are many things that
we can do TO make them more at
tractive. Here are some simple
rules that make all legs look better.
First of all be neat, The
way you wear your stockings has
great deal to do with the appear
ance of your legs, Baggy knees,
wrinkles and zigzag seams can
ruin the looks of the loveliest pair
of limbs. So, take time in putting
on your hosiery. Draw them up
trinity over your ankles and pull
them up smoothly. Run your fingers
up the back to see that your seams
are straight. Fasten your garters
firmly and in the right position so
the seams won't be pulled crooked.
Never wear hosiery the second day
without laundering. They'll bag
every time. And don't forget that
the skin that shows through thin
hose is as important as the shape
of your legs. Keep 1t smooth-an
occasional rub with hand lotion
does the trick. And above all,
shave your legs Cor use a good, re-
liable hair remover) often enough
to avoid that unglamorous, furry
blur that looks so untidy. Men hate
it and can you blame them2
Half of the women who write to
me about legs say that theirs are
too large; the other half complain
about theirs being too thin. Here
are some suggestions for both.
Thick ankles and calves can be
made trimmer if you are willing &c
spend half an hour a day on exer
else. Here is simple one that you
can do on the living room rug

by which you can ne Re them less

clally those that are NV at the

light shades and nigh ulster They

shades with a dull finish best
for you. Choose simple shoes with

If your legs are thin, start diet

will help round out the puny
muscles of your legs. Don't wear
your skirts too short .Cover YOUR
bony knees with skirts that fall in
soft folds at the hem Wear light
lustrous stockings. High cut shoes
are usually good, unless Solli wish
to emphasize a taperiug curve
from calf to ankle. In that case,
built-up pumps will be the most
flattering.
In closing let me say chat all
though we cant deny the attention

are not essential to popularity.

BEAUTY HINTS

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
A WoMAN'S FRIENDS

w Oh dN a w ENHD
It is said that a woman has
three good friends-the mirror,
her nose and the scales. First,
the mirror will tell her the real
truth about herself with no
Flattering remarks. She can de-
pend upon this reflection and
make her own adjustments.
Next, her nose will tell her what
no one else dares to tell. 1t will
let her know If her near pres
ence is pleasing or displeasing.
And then the scales will not say
how nice and thin you are look
ing, but will tell the bitter
truth to the last pound, So let
women take heed of the advice
of their three good friends.

great responsibility therefore rests upon eacn

things They can by making an intelligent approach
TO the fundamental and delicate problem so conduct
themselves that they disabuse the minds OF 9TH
ers that there is any basic difference between the
races and convert foes into friends.
Or else, they can. by ptting their own ignorance
against that OF whites through obnoxiousness bois-
terousness discourtesy and total disregard for the
