Why Grow Old?
Develop Your Talents

one. The one who develops the
one talent he has, has paid his
debt to God and to man. Often
this one talent may be more i'm
portant than four other talents
some one else has.
There is a ratio here which is
MOST inspiring. It really doesn't
matter how many talents you
have! It DOES matter what you
do with what you have. This is a
truer leveler than war. The man
or woman who has developed his
one talent is superior to the one
who had five talents and only
developed two.
Raise your head and heart,
wherever you are, in self-respect,
in integrity, in living up to the
hilt of your ability, and know
that If you do what you can with
what you have. you are on the
top level.

The Baby
Sitter
i. BY Angelo Potri

There comes the time when
somebody is needed TO care for
the baby and the other children,
If there are any. in the absence
of their parents. No household
ever escapes this. Parents must
live full lives and Of necessity be
apart from their children oc-
casionally. Who is to take care Of
the children in such times?
A member of the family who
likes the children and whom the
children like is the very best solu-
tion. The liking on both sides is
very important here. The beloved
relation serves best because he
can be trusted and he can be
trusted because he knows the
children, is fond Of them. knows
the family customs and habits, is
known by the children in return.
That does away with the need for
making acquaintance, securing
the children's trust, learning the
ways of the household and the
children's habits.
Failing the ideal, we must be
content with something less, not
too much less, but some one whom
the children know and who knows
them, some one experienced In
caring for children, responsible
in character. acceptable in speech
and manner. This will exclude
children. No child should be left
in charge of a household when
the heads of it are to be absent
for any considerable time. No
body knows when an emergency
may arise and good sense de-
mands that a responsible, mature,
experienced person be in charge.
Mothers of small children,
knowing that such an occasion is
certain to arise. would be wise to
prepare for it by arranging for a
caretaker for the children before
time. It is a good idea to intro
duce this person to the children,
have her in the house for times
long enough for her and the chill
dren to feel out their personali-
ties and their effect oh each other.
This allows the caretaker to feel
confident in her duty and the
children to feel confident in her
relationship to them.
The mother should explain the
habits and routine of the chill
dren's day and night. Make the
caretaker familiar with the house.
hold machinery and equipment:
Stoves, the bathroom, hot water
boiler, telephone, the doctors
telephone number, his name and
address, the parents likely where
abouts and that telephone num-
ber. The children's dietary habits,
health habits and chores or occu-
pationS should be familiar to the
caretaker. In short, she should
be thoroughly acquainted with the
family, the house and its concerns
as far as her duty is concerned.
To bring a stranger into the
house to care for children whose
parents are absent is to frighten
them and render the caretaker
about helpless. The sitter ques-
tion is a serious one and worth
all the thought and care that can
be lavished upon it.

(Guest columning for Elsni, Who Is on
Only a woman would choose
August to dream of herself in a
fur coat. But that particular way
ward (and yet, in the way of
women. practicaD h al bit has
brought about the phenomenon of
a fur-buying boom every year just
when the dog days begin. We in
the fur designing world have ad-
justed ourselves to it By this time;
around about Easter, when the
"little furs" are bloSsoming out on
suits and dresses, I begin to think
in terms of yards of mink, beaver,
nutria and clipped fox, all in sill
houettes which will wrap a woman
and keep her in the fashion, too.
Being a woman. I like It that way!
Even while furS magnetic the
heart and mind of every woman,
there are very few fur-shoppers
who seem to have a clear idea of
what to ask for, what to expect
and demand in return for the ma
jor investment which most fur
coats involve to the individual or
the family. Only about one out of
fifty, incredible though it seems,
ever looks voluntarily at herself in
triple mirror to see if the fur
coat she is trying fits well at the
back. The front view alone seems
to be enough for them, even
though tight armholes and taut
shoulders will spoil the whole ef-
feet. And only one in a hundred
asks to look at the inside of the
coat to confirm the quality and
good soft condition of the skins
an absolute essential to the sheen
and wear of any coat.
Third, very few women seem
aware that a fur coat has fashion
elements just the same as a dress
or suit-elements which do not
change drastically from season to
season, but which do evolve in
evitably with the general sill
houette. Since a fur coat should
look well and fright" for at least
four years after it is purchased, it
is important for woman to know

In the twelfth chapter of Luke
I read, Every one to whom much
is given of him will be much re-
quired; and of him to whom men
commit much, they will demand
more"
This made me think of the
parable from Matthew, Chapter "a.
I quote only part Of 1t.
For it will be as when a man,
going on a journey, called his SER
wants and entrusted to them his
property; to one he gave five
talents, to another two, and to
another, one; to each according
to his ability. Then he went away.
"He who had five talents went
at once and traded with them;
and he made five talents more. So
too, he who had two talents, made
two talents more; but he who
had one talent went and dug 1t
into the ground"
1t seems to me that this can be
interpreted into daily living in
quite true and dramatic way!
Although the talent" referred
to in the Biblical parable was a
piece Of money, the lesson holds
just as true If we give the word
the meaning which we attach to
talent" today! How many people
do little with their natural ability
because they feel that others have
so many more talents than they.
They feel showed under" and
have sensations Of inferiority and
Illustration.
There is an individual dignity
which is possible for every human
being: that of making the most
OF what he has, of investing In
life to the greatest degree pos
sible for him or her.
Frustration always follows when
a person fails to develop the
talent. or the talents, which he
possesses. The one who has five
talents and develops only two is
much more guilty than the one
who has two talents and develops

the last word on fashion develop
ments: shape and width of shoul-
ders. trend toward or away from
the slender outline, the size and
shape of collars and the length of
skirts-whether they are moving
up or down. Choosing an outline
which happens to be on the way
out in fashion can only mean ex-
pensive alterations or the unhappy
feeling of being behind the times.
My fourth please don't" to
women shoppers has to do with
being thoroughly realistic about
the size of your fur-coat fund.
and getting the best quality OF fur
you can afford within that budget.
There is simply no such thing as
an Imitation" which looks like
the real thing. Furthermore, any
fur in it's natural state, if well
matched and expertly made, is
more attractive than one made
up" to look like some other fur.
A simulated" mink never fooled
anybody, while the original musk
rat, perhaps bleached to silver or
natural brown and handled as re-
spectfully as mink, can look hand
some and attractive enough to go
anywhere at any time. If mouton
is your speed in price, buy it in
dark brown or one of the gay
colors, with the best workmanship
you can find, but don't buy a mou-
ton that is thinly disguised as
beaver. for that makes you look
frustrated and disgruntled instead
of well-dressed.
And a fifth warning from a
woman who loves furs-and de-
signs them for fun as we'll as for
a living-don't insult your good fur
coat by restricting its wear to oc-
casions, Persian lamb, beaver, nu-
tria, seal and mink for formal
wear, and so on. A good fur coat
does not watch the clock, and its
place in your wardrobe is as time
less as your diamond ring.
