The five well known Twin Cit

their boots because they thought
they would be named in a divorce
suit by a husband can relax now.
It's now quite possible they won't
be named after all!

Because OF the thousands
Of letters ! have had from

pressed by the great differ

Two people can have the

varying reactions, each will
get something entirely diff

tude she develops a sparkling

loves her.
Some women feel old from
20 on while others feel young
st 80. The latter ARE young,
'stoo, young in spirit. and
younger physically than they
would have been without this
outlook. Some cry over the
first few gray hairs while
others either dye their hair
or forget the gray. Some
worry themselves into more
wrinkles while others get
busy and do what they can
about the ones they have.
The greatest waste Of all
seems to me to be concern
over ones height. It's bad
enough to measure living in
years and even worse to
measure it in inches. Great
Heavens-when life Is as ex-
citing as it is!
Yet many women are very
self conscious If they are
much taller than average.
Being self-conscious. they
rob themselves of the adj
vantages of their height.
They slump in an effort to
look shorter. They wear

because they have been told
that this cuts their height.
1t just makes them look all
legs in an awkward way.
You can all well guess what
this attitude does to their
charm. 1t leads to a retiring,
shy, apologetic personality.

Exchange
Is Made

The second grade at Bur-
gundy Farm Country Day
School in Alexandria has lost
its teacher to Nigeria, but has
gained a new one from
Ecuador.
Mrs. Camay Brooks, who
taught at Burgundy for II
years, left this month for
Ikenna, Nigeria, to teach at
the Mayflower School where
her husband will be head
master.
Six year old Christopher
Brooks will be in the first
grade there and will learn
his "3 RS" in Yoruba, the
native language.
Replacing Mrs. Brooks at
Burgundy is Mrs. Grace Segal
Aviles, who returns to this
country after IS years of
teaching in Guayaquil Ecua-
dor.
Her husband, now with the
Organization of American
States, was editor of La
Nacion and Dean of the
Journalism School of the
University of Guayaquil.
Although Burgundy is
pioneering in teaching geom-
etry in second grade, Mrs.
Aviles had already started
this subject in her kindergar-
ten classes in Ecuador.
Burgundy second graders
will continue their regular
curriculum with the addi-
tional experience of learning
about the culture of Ecuador,

Life is not all pleasure for a woman. Far from it,

When there is estrangement between fathers and

When you're tired, haf-sick and discouraged and it

No. there times when it's NOT fun to be woman.
When, like child, you want to hide in

Crying may be childish outlet but it is sometimes
very good thing We often rise cleaned and refreshed
by the storm. And while it's usually wrong subject

THOUGHTS BEFORE GOING HOME
yearn for the countryside of childhood far
off where the ripping blue hills fold into each other
know again the soft breeze that lifts from hilltop and
the thin autumn sunshine that warns but not hot
remember the morning smell of wood smoke and the faint
reflection of sound that distant rooster growing At
dusk the faint sound lonely darkness stretches
the miles between and makes them strange.
Twilight is dim shadow moving the land The
cattle from the pasture The soft cuckng of the
hens grows Shr The stops There voices from
the field, thinned and softened by the distance
My memories play me false; it will not be that way
when 60 back, but for moment was home again.
