Dos and Don'ts Guide Listed
For Your Lovely Personality

You can be pretty as a picture.
Smart as a whip and good as gold

nothing is more fatal than acting
people are born with charm,
as if you were determined to be
charming if it kills you, warns

There is no single formula for
charm, she says, but there are a
number of dos and don't to guide
you to a lovely personality For
one thing, don't try to look, dress,
act or be something that you're
not.
If you are a tall girl, don't
think you have to wear fiat shoes

Since 1908 forty-four colored

STATE Department
Complies Book On
Our Foreign Policy

At the request of President
Truman, the State Department
has prepared an authoritative
100-page booklet on "Our For
eign Policy" The importance of
this book is indicated in this
foreword by the President:
influence for Peace
"At time when the duties
of citizenship fall heavily on
thousands of Americans, there
is a duty that all of us can and
should impose on ourselves: to
be well informed about the prob
lens that face our country; to
weigh the facts, to understand
the issues, and to form our own
opinions and judgments.
This is not an easy under
taking. But it issnecessary if we
Americans, as people, are to
exert our full influence for peace
and freedom and justice"
The booklet points out that
since the beginnings of human
society there has been struggle
between those who regard the
state as supreme and those who
believe that authority resides in
the people, with the state as
servant, not master. 1t continues:
Russian Reactionists
what makes today's version
of the conflict SO serious is that
the old reactionary ideas. are
in the hands OF an aggressive and
expanding power which already
controls the lives of more than
700 million people. Moreover,
this great power expects even
tuallyl to impose its doctrines
and its authority on all people.
ITO accomplish this purpose,
the Soviet government and its
agents are using methods Of
terror, OF propaganda, and of
secret undermining of other
systems from within, These
methods are most likely to sue
coed where there are situations
of weakness.
Situations Of weakness exist
in the world today where people
have become demoralized by war
and enemy occupation; where
the Soviet Army occupies a
country; where governments are
weak and people are divided;
where people are in revolt
against colonial rule; where
people are bowed down with
poverty and can see no way out
Of their troubles.
Soviet pressure is usually in
effective where there are 'situa-
tons Of strength Such situa-
tions exist where people are
united behind a popular govern
ment and determined to main
tain their independence; where
people can count on strong sup
port from other free countries
or from the United Nations;
where people can hope to create
a better life by their own
efforts"

comes from the second floor.
Since all soiled clothes and linens,
excepting table linens, are
changed on the second floor and
clean clothes are stored in bed
room bureaus or upstairs closets,
the saving in stair climbing and
clothes bundle carrying is con-
siderable,
While the second floor laundry
is thought Revolutionary" by
many families, it may well be-
come the standard home laun-
dry Of the future in two story
structures. The laundry equip
ment weighs approximately 600
pounds which means no unusual
structural problems for the
builder or renodeler. Modern
washers do not require boiling
to the floor. A fluid drive mechan-
ism on one new washer, for exam
pie, eliminates vibration.
Best location for the second
floor laundry usually is near the
bathroom so that both rooms
can be served by one set of
plumbing connections.
A utility room arrangement in
the basement or on the first floor
makes possible a combined laun.
dry and heating unit layout.
In farm homes, a first floor
utility room is no innovation. The
utility room has served many a
farm family as a mems shower
a place TO hang outdoor clothes
