cnoreS; she has come to feel less
like an individual in her own
right, and more a mere "house-
Wife" or ~ that she is newly
married and the status of house
wife" is something she has looked
forward to with such eagerness
that she is temporarily over
whelmed by having finally
achieved it..
With persons who identi-
fled themselves with the an
swer "I'm married." the inn
plicatiOn would be similar.
People whose marital status as
sumes top priority in their minds
are likely to be either newlyweds
or else old hands whose marriage
bark is being tossed about in I'M
comfortably choppy waters.
Almost 18 per cent of the per-
sons tested were so conscious of
their sex that they regarded
themselves primarily as man"
or woman" girl or 'boy."
This standardization was by
far the most frequent in persons
of high-school and college age.
"In fact, says Professor Bugen-
tai. "preoccupation with their
sex was so marked in the young
er subjects that some actually
included reference to it in every
answer. (For example, one girl
gave as her three responses, "Fe-
male, - Sister, - "Co-ed.")
Something TO Hide
If YOU answer the question. as
over IL per cent of the subjects
did, with a neutral description"
of yourself, such as II live at 349
Elm Street." or I'm an Ameri-
can citizen" the psychology ex-
perts would classify that as eva
siveness. And they'd be inclined
to probe further, for evasiveness
indicates that there's something
you want to hide, perhaps from
yourself as well as Others.
The question elicits responses
from some people which are so
graphically descriptive of their
mental outlook that they require
little amplifcation. The little
tailor, for example, who stared
perplexedly at the university in

speaking, then slowly shook his
head.
Il never asked myself such a
question BEFORE" he said. "It
kind of stops me. l guess I don't
know who l am - except that
I'm kind of mixed up. l feel all
alone by myself, and feel most
people have it in for me. Like
I've got to hold on tight to
everything I've got or some
body'll take it away"
He glanced suspiciously at the
investigators notebook. You're
writing all this DOWN." he asked.
He ripped the top page from the
notebook and fled. It would
hardly take a psychologist to tell
that the man was suffering from a
full-blown persecution complex.
Umcens0eed Revelasioms
HERE are several reasons why
the question evokes as many of
these comparatively unguarded
responses as it does. For one
thing, it is a question that few
people have ever asked them
selves before. And the jolting
impact of it often induces self
scrutiny that is as revealing to
the subject as it is to the ques-
toner. The experience frequently
jars loose a completely uncen-
sored response.
Despite the stir that it has
caused in scientific circles, DR..
Bugental and his fellow psychol-
ogists make no spectacular claims
for the who-are-you question.
They do not contend that it is a
one-question personality test,
nor do they claim that it is by
any means infallible. They do
regard it as an amazingly reveal
ing tool which serves as a valua-
BILE adjunct to established tech
niques in exploring the human
personality.
"Incidentally," says DIR.
Bugental, ''the most signifi-
cant response person can
make is to decline to answer
it. This suggests definite malad-
justment and indicates that the
person isn't happy being the in
dividual he is and wants to es-
cape from himself" The End

Several years ago, we are told,
group of American mothers de-
cided to pool their experience and
ideas to see if they could find the
basic essentials of good family
life, and what they might safely
discard. The author of this book
led these discussions, her notes
resulted in a series of lectures
which she has given in more than
a hundred places, and finally to
this book.
There is some actual merit to
the publishers claim that this is
the Peace of Mind" for women,
The author devotes herself to
outlining the richness wives and
mothers can find in the world,
and the richness they can con-
tribute to it, if they will think
and act lovingly and creatively
Mrs. Hamilton's philosophy is a
mature one, based on sound
psychology and an active faith
and she conveys it clearly to her
readers.

cusses the vital statistics that
must be known to raise each.
The author, a nationally ac-
credited flower show judge, has
plainly designed her book for busy
people with a love of plants and
a minimum Of time in which to
care for them. As general coun-
sci, she advises, Don't try to
raise a plant because your mother
grew it, or because your neighbor
has it. Select the plants which
will live and thrive in the window
you have to offer them, whether
it be north, south, east or west
Included in the book, too, is
data on the techniques of plant
raising in general, including in
formation on potting and re-pot-
ting, moisture in the soil and
air, pinching, pruning and sup
porting. fertilizing, and so forth.
Charts. too, give data on elimi-
mating plant pests, on keeping
gift plants healthy and on curing
common plant troubles. The va
riety of data in the book is well
organized and easy to locate.

was the best cake I'd ever eaten.
I have a list of the ingredients
but am not sure it is correct and
do not know the method of max

correct recipe and directions for
making this cake very much. Fol-
lowing are the ingredients I have
listed:

That's a Powers Girl motto-and,

Wishing you were taller, shorter,

nowhere, Some brand-new ideas
Iare what you need -. and the
place to start is by discarding some
old ones.
If you are in a rut where your

they were becoming and fashion,
able then. Look into your mirror
and answer honestly. What of
today?"
Today is the day you must look

your type has changed without
your having realized it. And the
moment you switch to your correct
and new type, you'll feel as though
the designers of your new clothes
fhad made them just for you,
they'll be so right.
For instance, you may always
have bought your clothes in the
misses department. while now you
can be better suited, fitted and
dressed in the women's or half
size salons.
If so, make the switch quickly

you live in the only country in the
