that she most needs. A brushup on
a sound diet should help. Fanatical
dieting isn't the answer-good nu-
triton results in glossy hair, good
teeth, good complexion, energy-in
brief, down-to-earthiSh as 1t may
sound. the cornerstone of good looks.
All Of this brings to mind one of
the most attractive gals we know
we'll call her Jane Doe, for original
ity's sake-who was far from pen
cil-slim. In fact, particularly catty
female might go so far as to point
out that the smooth Jane was rather
chubby-which she was. But the
opposite sex certainly did not avoid
her like the plague.
Jane hadn't ducked her problem
she'd made the most of it. First of
all, she had her figure under con-
troll with weil-fitting undergarments
she definitely didn't bulge" Sec
ond, she had very attractive ward
robe, ali asset in any girls life; and
last, cut definitely not least in max
ing our particular point-sfe bad
very lovely hair, skin and teeth
and her standards OF grooming were

s.. Maybe you've been using your
stocky figure as an excuse for un-
attractiyeness-if you have, you're
taking Re ostrich's way out. We
know the willowy type is appeal
ing-but bone structure has quite a
bit to do with the kind of figure
you have, and diet isn't the wand
you can wave to create figure that
is long-waisted, and so forth, If you
didn't come that way. And it needn t
be the bane Of your existence-wit-
ness our friend Jane.
We suggest that you consult an
expert on the choice of a good bra
and girdle, guard your posture, use

lots Of people are even doing it,. so
/ guess I'd better string along. I'm
reconverting, too.
All my life I've campaigned
against women's hats. I've fought
the menace In all its stages. I was
in there swinging when women went
through the over-the-one-cye stage,
when hats looked like inverted soup
plates and trash baskets, when live
mice trotted around atop the ladies'
heads, when hats were made out OF
lumber shavings, old socks, over
shoes, toothpaste tubes, shaving
brushes and used radio parts.
I just took good look at the new
fall hats, and now I'm through. A
man can stand Just SO much.

self. There must be something to
this. Why does a woman crawl out

Dear Miss Dix: My family In
sisted upon my taking business
course, as they thought it would be
valuable to me in case of rainy days.
The only trouble is that I do not like
office work and after three years of
it am fed up and tired of waiting
for stormy weather. want to quit
my good job and try something
else. Do you think this is wise, or
should I continue office work and
marry the first man who asks me,
out of sheer boredom?

Answer advise you to give up
the work to which you are allergic
and get into something that you
like to do. No one makes a success
of a distasteful job. Stevenson once
said that the person who did his
work without thought Of reward was
called Of the gods. and that is eter-
nally true.

It you do the work in which you
are SO interested that you never
count the time nor the labor that
you put into it and that keeps you
always on your tiptoes, you have
found a source of happiness that

the kind of work that ends in sue

I especially urge you to find a
congenial job as due to the war

Don't be foolish enough to marry
just any man who happens along
because you are bored with office
