A Princess Is Deposed
Girls Reaction Toward New Rival
Probable Cause of All Trouble -.
By Kay Caldwell and Alden Harrison

the challenge. but obviously her
method was wrong. because it led
to the loss of her friends. Probably
she refused to have anything much
to do with the new girl. Wen bet
she was a bit eatty. Her pride was
badly wounded, SO she sulked. Ano
her friends, finding her no longer ar
amusing and gracious companion
began to leave her alone.
If we've diagnosed the situation
correctly. the remedy is obvious
The girl who wrote to us must
abruptly revise her tactics. She
must try to make herself the same
pleasant person she was before the
new girl came to town. She will
probably have to gulp down her
pride and resign herself to being
lady in waiting to the new queen
at least until she's re-eStabliShed
herself. That shouldn't be too diff
cult. The new girl must be likeable
or she wouldn't have made such
a general hit.
After that, who knows? Perhaps
our correspondent will regain hel
former place as head girl; perhaps
she'll never again be better than
runner-up. Or she and the new
girl may eventually share leader
ship of the crowd-they may even
become close friends.
But what does it matter? The
important thing is that this girl
straighten out her own feelings SO
that she's not jealous of the new
conner. She must get rid of her
childish gotta-be-best-or-n nothing
attitude. If she can do that, she'll
have no popularity problem, now or
later.
And that's something for any
young person to remember when he
or she faces a similar situation. You
can't best rival by sulking jealous
ly and letting your nose get out of
joint. You either must produce
enough stuff to beat your opponent
with his or her own weapons or
accept your defeat with good grace
and good craftsmanship.

Magic Words Repeated Daily Will Bring Happiness Young Couples
Vitamins Play Vital
Part in Formation
Of Good Teeth

A few years ago there was much
discussion among research workers
as to the part which various vita
minis played in the formation of
good teeth and in their protection
from decay.
Today it is generally recognized
that healthy condition of the
whole body influences the health of
the teeth.
DR.. E. V. McCollum of Johns Hop
kins University stated recently:
There is some property of the
mucous secretions or of the saliva
which tends to suppress the growth
OF microorganisms which promote
dental carries" When this secretion
Is lacking teeth seem to be more
sensitive to decay, especially when
the diet is high in sugar, which
causes fermentation.
Vitamins A, c and D are all neces.
sary for the construction or mainte-
nance OF teeth. Each one plays its
part and we cannot say that one
is any more important than the
other. Minerals, particularly call
cium and phosphorus, are perhaps
even more important than the vita
minis, and these are supplied by
milk, which forms the basis of the
diet in infancy.
AS teeth are formed before birth.
1t is most important that the diet
OF the mother-to-be contains all of
the necessary elements for their
construction. If for any reason
milk needs to be limited in the diet
calcium concentrate must be
| taken.
Research work in regard to teeth
Is being carried on in many different
laboratories. Within the next few
years we will probably have more
definite information than we have
today. In the meantime, a we'll
rounded diet is the best answer wa
have to the tooth question.

single glggle from any OF your
contemporaries.
II you have always been interested
in staying fit but have procrasti-
mated about doing anything to ac-
complish your wish, now is the time
to begin. What about your arm and
shoulder muscles? Have they be-
come flabby and weak?
Stand tall. Take a weight in your
hand, arms hanging at the sides.
Bend the elbows, lifting the weights
up close to the shoulders. Now
stretch the arms over head. Again
bend the elbows, bringing the
weights to the shoulders. Lower
weights to sides.
The size of the weight depends on
your prowess as an exerciser and the
condition of your muscles. If you
have been inactive, begin with q
weight which is easy for you to lift
and gradually increase as muscular
strength dictates.
While men are organizing for fire.
fighting and all kinds of civilian
defense, it would be well for them to
remember that one of their most
important jobs is the one of getting
fit. What good will it do to know
about fire-fighting if you fall fiat
on your face the first time you have
physical contact with a fire hose?
If all of the things we are now
learning for defense later are put
into practice, we are going to need
stamina to 60 along with it. Men
whose work has demanded that they
spend their days in sedentary indoor
work have suddenly awakened to
find themselves with a set of flabby
muscles, poor circulation, lack OF
staying power and short wind.
We long ago should have done the
things we are doing now. simply
because of their benefits in health
and happiness. But it takes a wal
to make most people realize how
much they have deterioriated from
the early standards of vitality and
youth.
A set of exercises. taken daily, will
begin to show results within a few
months time Here is one that mer
will like. Step forward with the
left foot, bend the left knee. stretch
the right backward tknee stiff and
place the hands on the floor With
a jump straighten the left leg and
bend the right knee. This is a
change. As one leg straightens,
the other bends. Continue jumping
until tired This gets the abdominal
muscles and those of the legs, arms
and chest. Don't slump in the
middle when you do this. Keep a
straight line from the head to the
toes.
If you wish to start a set of
exercises to tougher you. send

Right. But I must admit that
there are times when page Is
awfully hard to turn without little
moisture However, I think it would
be wise. and no doubt far more
sanitary, to refrain from wetting
ones thumb when turning the pages
of books or magazines In other

libraries, and in any other spot
where you are not the sole user of

If it's your own book or magazine,

a kiss that isn't so cold that 1t feels
as if it had just come out OF the
frigidaire, that a woman feels that
her marriage is failure.
And as long as a wife burns in
cense before her husband; as long
as she makes him feel that he is the
center of the universe to her and
that she considers him an oracle on
every subject under the sun; as long
as she tells him how handsome he
is; as long as she laughs at his Jokes
and encores his stories, he is happy
and satisfied and nailed to his own
flreside.
For home-brewed iattery is the
most potent drink or earth, and the
man who has wife who serves that
to him never goes abroad in search
of some other woman to stimulate
his ego.
Strange, but true, that in five
little words are comprised the whole
of the law and the prophets about
how to make marriage success.

IL isn't what happens TO you that
important-its how you react to 1t
This morsel of wisdom is by nc
means original with us. 1t is merely
brought to mind by an anonymous
letter from a girl living in a small
town, which reads:
About a year and a half ago ]
was really popular with all the kids
20 around with. Then a certain
girl came here to live. She's moi
exactly pretty, but whatever it is
that she's got, it certainly attracts
all my friends, both boys and girls
Il certainly wouldn't accuse my
self of being jealous of her, but
she's made me feel pretty awful
I don't go to as many places as
used to. don't even go to the gangs
get-togethers. Please tell me what
you think I should do so that
may again be in the crowd. You'll
not only be doing me favor, but
you'll probably be helping other kids
in my predicament."
Now, this letter doesn't tell us
much about either of the girls in
yolved. However, we think we can
make pretty good guess as to what
has brought about the situation
which worries the writer
She blames her loss of popularity
on the arrival of the new girl in her
town. She seems to think that the
friends who formerly liked her have
now changed their feelings COM
pletely just because the local popu-
lation has been increased by one.
1t wasn't the arrival of the new
girl that wrecked our correspon-
dents popularity, but the way in
which she reacted to that new sit
uation.
Apparently she couldn't stand the
idea of another girls matching-or
exceeding-her own popularity. IT
must never have occurred to her
that there was room in her crowd
for two likeable girls. She had to bt
a queen without a rival, or she
wouldn't play.
We don't know just how she met
