well to peruse these advertisements
carefully. There are bargains gal
ore in every store.
The large banner announcing
Opportunity Days" will be stretch
ed across Walnut Street and the
participating stores will have "Op-
portunity Days" stickers affixed to
either store front or door.
The success of Opportunity

eided- success. 1t is understood that
In the near future several other
communities are going to put on

has been popular and has made for
better relations between merchants

cause teen-agers say, "Give us a

some were not fleet on fast steps.
So there were plenty of slow rec
'ords - and, later, tag-dances - to
encourage most to dance. In a
corner, Jean had set up card tables
with canasta cards and other
equipment to give the shy ones a
place of their own, until they were
ready to swing into the fun.
Snacks, arranged on different
tables around the living room; a
punch boWn combining soft drinks

The feminist order should not

of Maria Theresa, who had Is

outwitting her enemies. He adds:
"The greatest resistance to this

Well. girls, who wants to be
President?
I've just been talking to a man
who says any woman in the coun-
try could do a better job running
it than the men have done up to
now.
He's in dead earnest about it,
too, and to prove it has written
book called "Why Women
Should Rule the World" to be
published May /.
Richard G. Levy Chats his
name) points to the successful
reigns of such historical figures
as Hatshepsut, the woman ruler
of ancient Egypt. Elizabeth I of
England, Margaret of Denmark
and Maria Theresa of of Austria
He says:
Women are by nature more
prudent, practical and peace -lov-
ing than men. They are ideally
suited. by heredity and training,
to take over the wheels of govern
Iment.
Men are romantic, visionary
and bellicose. They should be
limited to such things as fighting,
exploring. engineering and things
requiring courage and physical
strength"
No Housework for Men
Levy hastens to add that he does
not suggest that men should stay
home and keep house while their
wives go out to wrest a living from
the world. He explains:
Men should go out and be
men. Government is only a
housekeeping job anyway and
what are men doing keeping
house? A woman and a house
hold budget should be able to
work wonders in Washington in
jig time"
The way to accomplish this
feminine utopia, says Levy, is for
the girls to start a woman's party
The conventional political parties,
he feels, are too hidebound ever
to indorse petticoat rule. He feels
that this step should be taken
right away before the 1852
political conventions if possible
Says he:
IF women don't take over in
this generation, there won't pe a
next generation"

Jean gave one of the "sweet
sixteen" evening parties, for cou-
Piles, that are increasingly popu-

real dating for many, she decided
on a dated party"
For invitations, out 10 days

the name of the boy or girl. She
added, "Please reply" with her
phone number, to request a
prompt answer. This gave her
time to invite another date or
escort, for one whose chosen part
ner did not accept.
AS is understood, with any in
vitation. the boy or girl was sup
posed to say "YeS" or give a polite
reason for mo" without unkind
comment on the hostess choice
of partner.
Acceptance meant that the boy
was supposed to call for the girl
and see her home after the party.

really no reason TO worry about
them, for the most important thing
in sending a gift is not the gift
itself but the mans sincerity. Fur
thermore, if one takes Christmas
only as day for exchanging gifts
the true meaning of Christmas
will be lost For the real purpose
of Christmas is TO celebrate the
birthday of Jesus Christ.
