We have seen how Saul, first
King OF 1sreal, beginning auspici-
ously and with fine and magnani-
nous elements in his character,
nevertheless soon took the down.
ward steps that indicated the tri-
imph of his weakness over his
strength. In this lesson we come to
his consequent rejection from his
kingly position, and we shall soon
pass to his defeat in battle and
his suicide. 90

Wallie Simpson told reporter,
eff there is one thing hate it is
that best dressed title. I am not
and don't ever want to be clothes
horse"
Well, there is only one way q
woman ever gets. in the best-dress-
ed ranks, or gets herself dubbed
a clothes horse. And that is by
making clothes paramount in her
scheme of life =
You don't blunder into the ranks
of the "best dressed" while you
are busy bringing up kids, working
as nurses aide, or carving out
career that takes hard work and
concentration.
Women doing those things
couldn't be clothes horses If they
tried. Because being best-dressed
woman is, full time career in it.
