Susie c.. sums up natural human yearning of
every person to stand out from the crowd . . and
the wish that there were some pat formula for
putting oneself across.
Happily enough, there is. Proof of it is the once
unnoticed Susie who can now magnetic roomful
of people. The methods she learned in five-day
course are tricks which any girl can appropriate
for herself.
CONFIDENT AIR: The practice of personal
dynamics which makes people sit up and take
notice, was something Susie had to fake. She put
authority into her carriage by walking proudly
tall; by sitting down and getting up with more
grace and better timing. To make an entrance,
Susie learned how to pause in the doorway long
enough to survey the scene calmly pick out an
objective and move to 1t with studied polse.
Because Susie often suffered a collapse of
aplomb she had to be taught another trick to
draw teacup of air into her lungs and to retain
little more of it than she used in speaking. Try 1t.
You'll get high-and-nighty feeling.
SMALL TALK: Since she had always yielded the
floor to Others Susie had now to learn how to hold
it. There are no rules that apply, but she learned
one surere trick: lead the other person on to talk
about himself There are few people who can resist
this bait . . who won't, having nibbled on it, go
away thinking that you clever talker.
GROOMING: You should dress down - not up -
to flag attention to yourself. What brought Susie
out of nondescript blur, was the simple business
of stripping dresses and suits down to basic skee-
tons of fabric and line. Formerly she wore too
many pleated pockets, fancy belts, neckline bows,
appliqued details, glove trimmings, lapel flowers.
and gadgety ornaments When these were re-
moved, Susie's good looks were boldly projected.
and her nice figure smly defined. Then. with her
too-curly and far-fung hair dressed close to her
head, the job was bascally finished.
PULLING POWER: A lapel clip depends more
upon outline and size for effectiveness than upon
ewelry detail. A lipstck doubles its pulling power
when it is matched to something else you wear
Color is your best tool for ensembling your costume
effects and for routing gances in your direction.

II would be a serious situation
if our soldiers didn't today give
time to contemplating what hap
pened after the last World War
when the army returned home and
the country drew itself away from
the sight and sound of the rest Of
the world, to let others plan for
the disastrous future among ma
tons. Too expensive lesson for
us in Kennewick to forget so soon!
It is vital that we acquaint our
selves with policies and programs
that will surely affect us in the
postwar years. A nation that
stresses it's educational system as
do we should see to it that its army
has knowledge of the social, eco
nomical and political problems that
bind us to our brother nations
with ties of living in the same age,
on the same globe, where inter-
national understanding and COOP
Grafton is needed to lay corner
stone for overall peace. The army
is putting the facts in a readable,
interesting form. They are issuing
splendid maps of war theatres with
vivid explanations, are having
company commanders give talks

lege or between high school and a
job has many things to recommend
it. In addition to the fact that it
will provide preliminary training
to young men in the event this
country should in the future be-
come engaged in another war there
is the benefits that will accrue to
the young men themselves. A
years training in the army pro-
vides many physical benefits. II
develops coordination of mind and
muscle, awakens latent talents and
interests and gives a splendid
training in discipline that is valu-
able throughout life.

on active problems and using the
question and answer forums to in
augurate serious thinking in the
fighting forces, making for enliv-
ening discussions. Army publica-
tions are putting out readable news
stories, talks by platoon command
ers discuss Nazi tactics, the Nazi
soldier in training and background,
the German youth worry. Person
al accounts are given the boys by
veterans of battles with illustra-
tions of the enemy's technique, a
review of Hitler's Mein Kampf,
talks on the Russian method of
warfare, pamphlets on our foreign
policy, reports of our War Produc-
ton Board, facts of the formation
of the Chinese government, a sur
vey of japan and so on with many
comprehensive articles of interest
and to make our soldiers take a
part in thinking about war and
peace. 1t is our duty to give them
some heavier reading than the ev-
err popular funny books"

The report is that to date nearly
10000 planes have been delivered
by this country to Russia. Most of
these have been flown across from
Canada and Alaska. There is NO
discounting the value of this aid
to Stains armies. Without doubt
it is the thing that has thrown the
balance of power in favor of the
Russian armies.

Another reminder regarding
Christmas packages to be shipped
to men in foreign service: Discover
first what it is that men in the
particular field to which your
present is to be sent want, next
pack it securely. Mail sent long
distances under present conditions
takes terrible punishment. Make
the package about shoe box size
but don't try to send everything in
a shoe box. It won't get out of the
country until it is all apart and its
contents scattered to the four
winds. Wrap securely, address it
clearly and correctly and mail it
early.

1t seems difficult for the Amer
lean people to realize that paper,
a thing of which the country has
always had an abundance, is vital
ly needed in the war. Every COM
munity in this country should
have some plan for saving and
collecting waste paper. A few
pounds here and few pounds
there will result in an enormous
total. This is one way in which all
of us can help with the war effort.

The feeling exists in the minds
of too many people that when a
financial burden is assumed by
federal aid that everyone is re-
lieved and no one has to pay.
Straight thinking compels one to
realize that a debt is a debt
whether.it is owed by an individ-
ual or the federal government and
that all debts are paid from the
same source-the labor and the
savings of the individuals. If this
fact could be held actively in mind
by everyone it would result in
more staight thinking and fewer
schemes to raid the federal treas
ury.

All attempts to solve the youth
delinquency problem lead back to
the home. Most youthful -delin-
guency comes from homes that are
delinquent in the matter of rear
ing young people with proper at
titude and concepts. Trying to
solve the youth delinquency prob
lem by merely working on the de-
linquent young people is like re-
pairing a leaky roof by setting
utensils around to catch dripping
water. '- -~

The brilliant achievement of
