Why Grow
Old?
By Josephine Lowmon

Physical attractiveness is al.
ways an asset. It is the window
dressing for more important
characteristics. It is the first
impact we make on others.
Far be it from me to mini
mize its Importance to q woman.
However, it is not the most es-
sential part of magnetism. Per-
sonality and Charm can make q
plain woman look beautiful and
lack of them can make q classi-
cally beautiful one seem as dull
and cold and unalluring as mud.
OF what elusive qualities are
personality and charm con-
cocted? Well, il knew. ] would
get load of it myself! How
ever, in trying to analyze women
who utterly charm others, 1t
seems to me that there is always
q certain vitality which Is re-
flected in interest and enthusi-
asm and a love Of life.
This idea Of being vital is
much more subtle and far reach
ing in its effect on one than
being able to chin oneself Is
times without stopping. Being
vital means being keenly alive.
therefore keenly aware. therefore
keenly observant, therefore
thoughtful and understanding
and gay.
These charming folks also
seem to have the magic quality
of not taking experiences or
things or people for granted.
They are alive to such a degree
that to do so would be impossi-
BILE. In daily life they discover
the ingredients of excitement
and inspiration and rich living.
In what would be routine duties
and mundane daily living to
others, they find the reasons for
kindness and for feeling adven-
turous or humorous. They find
life fun.
They never take the moon or
the sun for granted. They never
fail to respond to a frosty. star
studded night. They are as con-
sciouS of the beauty as Of the
pathos about them. They get
q huge kick out of an unex-
pected happiness and bounce
back after a blow. They are
too busy living to be sensitive
They are rewarding people!
It is much easier to be like
this If we have vibrant health.
. However, the individual approach
to life Is of paramount import
ance. Lack Of tenseness and a
bit of hurnor even when order
ing groceries or buying stamps,
can lift your spirit and the
spirits of those with whom you
come in contact.

The orchids and salmon
party given by the American
Newspaper Women's Club yes
terday in honor of the Secre-
tary of the Interior and Mrs.
Mckay was one of the most
colorful the club has given this
season.
Approximately $50 members
and their guests attended the 6
to 8 cocktail party and buffet
supper at the club on Twentieth
street.
It was the first in a series
planned to honor cabinet mem
bers whose wives have become
associate members of the club.
Appropriately the flower deco
rations, entertainment and food
represented the far-f1ung re-
sponsibilities that come under
Secretary McKay's direction.
Orchid leiS flown in from
Hawaii especially for the occa-
sion were presented to both
honor guests and to the club
president, Mrs. Harold Strick-
land. who received with them.
Piece de resistance at the
beautifully adorned buffet was
a large baked Columbia River
salmon. flown here for the party
from Oregon, the State of which
Secretary Mckay was formerly
Governor.
Throughout the reception and
supper, the Abe Long Hawaiian
Trio from New York, entertained
guests with songs Of the Islands.
The party was made further
enjoyable for the honor guests
with the presence of two old
friends from back home. Mr.. and
Mrs. Vic Mackenzie, who re-
Gently came from Portland to
make their home here.
The Interior Department was
well represented at the party.
Among those who had accepted

amateur male chefs admit de-

It seems stranger that such, a
relatively simple culinary prob

Problems Today
Girl Feurs Boy Is Dating Her
Only to Make Another jealous

My parents say it isn't, but I see
no harm in it. E. s.
ANSWER: While we're on the
subject of what a 12-year-old
girl should or should not do;
she certainly should be able to
spell simple words better than
you do. A little less time with the
boys and a little more attention
to school would be a wise adjust
ment.
1t isn't wrong for a girl to call
/ q boy. but it IS unwise. since
boys prefer to do their own tele-
phoning and are apt to feel Q
girl is chasing them If she pre-
emptS their rights.
The lipstick question is squarely
up to your parents. My opinion
is mo-"
If you go to the show in q
group, it's inevitable that you'll
meet the boys there. In most
communities the movie house is
the accepted place of Saturday
afternoon recreation. Whether
the meeting Is prearranged or
not, the outcome is the same. so
the problem is academic.
DEAR MISS NISSEN: I have
been married three months, dur
ing which time my husband has
been called into service. The
problem is that every week end
he comes home and wants to eat
and stay at his mothers. This
is causing many quarrels be-
tween us.
! E. C.
| ANSWER: Your husband is
obviously a very young man, and
the fact that he rushed into
marriage just before entering the
service hasn't given him any
time to adjust to his new status.
OF course, his place Is with you
when he's home week ends, and
his mother should make the fact
apparent to him If he can't see
it for himself. There's not much
sense quarreling with him and
widening the breach between
you: perhaps these quarrels are
an added reason for avoiding
you. Impress upon him. but
pleasantly. that his place is with
you. and be sure to schedule a
visit to his mother while he's
at home.

By Dr.. Poul Popenoe

The girls men marry. or wish
they had. aren't all alike. You
can easily observe that for your
self. by looking around among
the married women you know. So
a girl should not be afraid to be
herself. provided that self Is a
good one-any kind OF a good
one!
Kay is worried about this.
Does a girl have to be fast in
order to attract men?" she writes
me. That's not my style, but it
seems to me the girls who get the
dates are the ones who 60 in for
necking and petting. who are
glamorous. and who know all the
answers. Isn't there any chance
for the rest of us? Must we be
like that, or be left out?"
No normal girl need be left out,
Kay. She isn't likely to appeal to
all men. She'll have to find the
type of man to whom she does
appeal. The trouble is there are
some girls who have so little to
offer that it's hard to understand
why any man should want te
marry them, unless he were paiG
to do so. You have probably
heard of the father who, trying
to encourage the young man, said
proudly, "The man who gets my
daughter will get a prize"
MAY I see it, please?" the
young man asked.
If a girl has no bargaining
power-to adopt the term used by
labor unions-it's ordinarily hel
own fault. Mrs. Louise Kenton
Bray of the American Institute OF
Family Relations, who spent
many years helping young wom-
en- become acquainted with
young men, came to the conclu-
sion that there are at least six
types Of girls who have high bar
gaining power:
/. The genuine" relaxed girl
who does not play hard to get.
2. The dainty. feminine girl
who makes a man feel protective
and important.
8. The girl who is a real per-
son in her own right and not
what she thinks the man Of the
moment wants her to be.
4. The girl who takes trouble to

bitions, and with whom he can
share his enthuSiaSmS.
5. The conSiderate girl who
knows how to make a man CONF
Portable in awkward situations.
6. The colorful, interesting girl
who is always refreshing but un-
predictable.
Almost any girl can fit into one
Of these groups. Pick out the
one that seems closest to you,
then go to work to improve your
self. Write for my reading list
Of good books on the improvement
Of personality. It will be sent to
you with the compliments Of this
newspaper, If you enclose a
stamped, elf-addressed envelope
with your request, and the public
library can furnish the books.
Then 60 where men are, meet
as many as you can. and pick

you. It will be surprising If you
