Sitting
Pretty
NotEasy

An important part of wear
ing the new hemlines, says
Max Factor. is the role which
sitting pretty" plays.
A high-hemline girl must
never, never sit big" warns
the Hollywood beauty mentor,
or a tight skirt plus a high
riding hem will unite to be-
tray you.
Sit at a slight angle, he
says. explaining that the IS"
design Of the body-from
head to hip, from hip to
Bonded knee and from Bonded
knee to toe-has been the
favored position of grace and
beauty in Hollywood ever
since there have been stars
in its armament.
Keep knees together and
bent at a right angle. One
foot placed slightly back of
the other will help you to
keep short skirts under con-
troll. Any hemline higher
than 10 inches will not per-
nit you to cross your legs.
If you can-and must-cross
legs, let the swinging leg idle
close to the leg with the foot
on the floor.
Before lowering your body
to a low sofa, tuck your
skirts under, before you sit.
Never sit on the edge of a
chair in short skirts. When
you do, your skirt will fall
away from your legs in the
back, your skirt will slither
up over your knees in front
and what happens is usually
an embarrassment, OF which
you needn't ever be guilty.
And now for the test of q
lady's grace when entering
the low cars. To get in,
Factor advises that you
gently sit on the end Of the
car seat at a right angle with
the car and adjust your dress
beneath you. Then. simply
swing your legs around until
you are sitting forward in the
car.
To extricate yourself, par

What a shame that every
one can't feel this same wayl
Too often strains and wor-
ries and responsibilities warp
our natural love Of life. We
fret or null through each
day with little awareness Of
the beauty and laughter all
about US.
This attitude can become
one Of the most vicious and
damaging habits We could
possibly develop. without
realizing It we may have
formed the habit Of the pes
simistic and complaining at
titude. This colors all OF our
reactions and inclines our
personality toward drabness.

also because II draws the cor
ners Of our mouth down. puts
frown lines about the eyes
and lenses the entire facial
contour so that its trend Is
downward. Such an attitude
may even affect our posture.
Our carriage often reflects
our attitude toward life.
Unfortunately it sometimes
takes real trouble to make
folks realize how lucky they
have been and how they have
wasted the past days and
years in tears and dislikes
and friction. They look back
and say, IF this or that just
had not happened I would
be the happiest person in the
world. / would never be I'M

Habit Of Criticism
Many people have binders
on and do not realize it be-
cause the habit Of melancholy
and criticism have sneaked
UP on them gradually. The
only possible way to get a
new viewpoint is to realize
and admit to yourself that
you have fallen into a nut Of
this sort. You cannot expect
to change overnight. but you
can begin today in many
small ways.

proudly claim that his whole

A perfect example is his

nothing to stain or tear fine

colors and is a great boon to

Belden. And it's good for
washing sweaters when the
manufacturer says. don't

Once active in promotion

that he was encouraged by

start his gadget business. He
gives Mrs. Belden credit for

ideas and admits he uses his
family as guinea pigs" for

gadgets a year are actually

"Yes, I think the schools are
providing the necessary bas-

knows what he wants to do
early enough. Often, how
ever, when a student decides
that he or she wants to go
into a specialized field he
finds that he doesn't have
the credits necessary to get
into the school Of his choice.
This problem points to the
Importance of vocational
guidance and l believe the

rolling - holds a strange fascina-

full ocean, reaching as far as the
v can see, leashes its violence,
allowing only small foam-flecked
ripples to dance lightly up the
bach. White-capped surf rolls far
Their out, dipping and curling,
wearing white creSts jauntily atop
cool green depths.
At the edge of the waveletS, a
flock of ssndpipers are searching
for food. They gauge the surge
of the water carefully, and their
tiny legs blur with motion as
they follow the receding wave,
Teasing on the tidbits deposited
on the wet sand. An incoming
wave reaches for the little birds,
but they race before it, seeming
to enjoy the sport just as chill
dren do.
Gulls rest on the swells beyond
the foaming surf, bobbing like
toy boats. Along many beaches
pelicans soar, wings outstretched
and motionless, carried by the air
currents. Only a few inches above
the surface, it seems that even
a slight downstroke would catch
wing tip in the water.

Farmers Are Warned To
Spray For SpitIIehug

Noble county agricultural ex-
tension agent Floyd Henderson
announced today that all Noble
county farmers should act now
to prevent the spreading of the
spittlebug in meadows next
spring.
Henderson said that the first
ten days of September is the
time to spray meadows with
DDT or Methoxychlor for spittle-
bug control. To spray now is
just as efficient and is less ex-
pensive than materials which
are required for spraying in the
spring.
Complete information concern
ing spittlebug control may be
received at the county extension
office in the courthouse, accord
ing to agent Henderson.
