she will be burned by the fierce
fires of Hollywood into a nervous,
anxious, jealous watcher of others
success, and a fighter to maintain
her own against losing odds.
Norma, make yourself beloved at
home, by service, unselfishness,
understanding. Watch your Ian
guage, prune it of the vulgarities
and catch-phrases that pass for con-
versation in your set. Go easy on
cigarettes and alcohol, because, while
you may become Hollywood star
overnight, you can't become a gen.
tlewoman overnight. That takes
time.
Try to be fine. Whether it's a
question of too many "my gawds"
in your conversation, gum chewing,
crossed almost-naked legs, over
much cheap makeup, cheap per-
fume, hair-dye, rotten stories, loud
laughter in public whether it's
any one of these, think seriously
before you adopt it as a habit. I
know pretty girls, of decent fam
lilies, too, who do all these things,
and are proud of themselves for
their daring and independence.
Worthwhile Objectives.
Suppose you hitch your wagon to
some such star as this: ''In IA years,
when I am 80, l would like to be a
lovely and cultivated woman. I
would like to speak one other lam
guage well. I would like to be hap
PLY married to a professional man
and have some children. I'd like to
have just one of the many comfort
able American homes of which the
suburbs of our big cities are filled;
garden, garage, sewing-room, nur-
sery, glassed breakfast-room. I'd
like to have a country club men,
bership and a little cabin some
where in the mountains for holi-
days. And I'd like an avocation that
gave me a chance for self-expres-
sion, and that brought me some
money, some fame. some friends,
whether it was jam making, poetry,
interior decorating, book-binding."
Start today on this order. Thou
sands of happy American women
have achieved it's fulfillment. In IA
years you may do it, if you will.
In IA years not one name in the
Hollywood armament, incidentally,
will have any meaning for the new
generation.

BEST is YET TO BE

adolescence is a trying beriod,
tnA of vague ambitions, frastra-
hons, hopes and fears. Many girls,
like the one wbom MISS Norris
tells about in this article, are I'M
happy although they bare eVery-
thing they need for contentment.
Girls in other countries, wbo
bare endured the fear and misery
Of war, are thankful for simple
comforts and a little security. They
bare no hope of eVer reaching
THE standard of lining that THE
discontented american girl takes
for granted. Miss Norris con-
tends that a certain degree OF in
security and difficulty are Wbole-
some elements in life. The strug-
gle to overcome these obstacles to
happiness giVes meaning and bar-
pose to life. she says.
For the middle class american
girl wbo has so much of every
thing and yet is "ack of it aU,"
Miss Norris POINTS ont a sVay to
attain happiness in the bresent
and to prepare for bright future.

lies a leCCeT IrOIIl luIl-
~ Gus little girl of 16. She
sends me a snapshot of herself,
too; slender bright-looking
creature in bathing-suit, with
the fluffy aureole of dark hair
that goes so far to make every
girl pretty nowadays.
Norma's quarrel is with the uni
verse. Though 16 years old and liv-
ing in an unusually pleasant Cali
fornia college town, Norma has
small use for life. School makes her
sick; people make her sick; Nom
and Dad and the family make her
sick.
Poor little thing, she pours out a
confused story of resentments and
desires and Illustrations and all the
other ills that aff1ict our rising gen.
GRAFTON so terribly. And it isn't fun
ny. Norma, with a sweet fresh little
chintzy room of her own, lots of
clothes-not expensive clothes, but
lots of them, devoted parents,
younger sister, an older brother,
friends, family car, health, movies,
school dances, theatricals but
what's the use? Why capitulate all
this? 1t isn't enough to keep Norma
happy, so what use is it?
Hardships Give Balance.
Norma's life hasn't the saving ele
ment of hard work, necessary work.
She hasn't the wholesome element
of fear, fear of hunger, of dispos-
session, of being separated from
her people, her country. If she were
wearing a dress that belonged to her
aunt 10 years ago, and were glad
enough to get it, if she were helping
her father and mother run little
roadside restaurant, and still
speechless over the miracle of be-
ing able to get potatoes and tea and
bread and carrots and milk enough
to keep it open, if she were thank
ing God on her knees every night
for the grace that spared her out
rage from enemy troopers, or physi
cal disablement from long months of
starving and cold, then Norma
would look at herself with different
eyes. Then realities and not en-
chanting dreams would possess her,
and sufficient meals, warm clothes,
a bed to sleep in, and family to
serve and love would seem to Norma
the miracles of life, as indeed they
are. ~
Well. we can't set our little dis
contented American Normas to
work, we can't make life real to
them, and except for an occasional
gift of old sweaters or spare coat,
we can't help the Normas of China,
Poland, Italy, Germany, Belgium
the Normas of more than half the
world. It only irritates our girls
when we point this moral If there
is anything maddening in this world,
it is the gentle elderly voice that
says, "Just be patient, dear. Your
happy time will come, when you'll
have all the things, you want"
Prepare for Future.
And yet it's true. Character
is fate. What Norma makes herself
fl for now is what Norma will be,
IL years from now, or 20 years from
POW. Twenty years sounds an eter-
nifty to her. Yet, SO is the very
cream of life. and even 10 years
more than 36 finds a useful and be-
loved woman at the very zenith of
her power. +
Norma, forget the story of the
movie girl who was whirled over
night from the job of waitress in a
drive-in to stardom. In a year or
two she will be whirled back, or
