Ellen 's Diary

And lo having ccnnncncod It yesterday afternoon when every munbe-r of the family forwnthered at Alder-lea, we continued the p“- m8 d’ our seed potatoes todny. Th!

Now let Winter do his worst so far as the safety of our potatoes was concerned! we had our tense moments at today’; gmq. ing. It is humiliating, to say the least to be caught in a. fault‘ There were times wnen James supplying the energy for the machine would cast his eyes along his helpers to remind me: “Never mind watching the baby, Ellen Ow!" he would exclstm and the anxiety in his tones would become next thing to anguish "WBS'.'A". that one, too small?

It was difficult foi- me to keep my thoughts and eyes in line. For this was in the nature of a great dfly for me. All of us were there Even the young grand-daughter from the house across the lane. She took her wring snug in her carriage on a tit of lawn from whence she could keep her mother easily in sight. she it was, who halted ‘the proceedings right gt the beginning 0f the day's work, when Jeanie fetched hrr to be weighed cn the “pota:o" scales. And after much deliberation in which most of the family joined. as to the up. Proximate weight of her garments, we were well cathfied with her con- tinued gains. She is growing, be- fore our eyes and also as Rob says “rapidly learning the female tech- nique". This, I take it, L; to be able to decide quickly where to use n. smile. a frown or a. tear to the best advantage -— from a personal point of view. However regardless of her wiles, which is yet. are vari- able, we find her exceedingly win- some and singly or in pairs we beg the blessing of her smile She is fair skinned and nei- eyes are bon- niiy blue. At present the usual greeting from any member of the iii-mill’. from James down to Jamie is: "wont you show us your new

teeth dear?" For two gems have appeared in quick succmsion to further enhance her usually sunny smile James and 1 postponed our breakfast the tnorning we heard of the anival of the first one and I followed him quickly and quite as proud as Jeanie to the house across the lane to admire it. “Not a tooth-" Karolvu aid when I had to tell her the new: on my return “now isn't the; wonderful?" and Junie. who is a doubting-Thomas sort of o. lad at his earliest opport- unity had to put a brown finger on the ‘exact spot.

Beauty Only ' Skin Deep

rm». Girls Gan iiavoion Personality And Mentality ta Attract

One of the most tragic things in the world ls the tears that P141“ girls shed over not being Miss America, for most of. them are com- mltted m the belief that unless they can take ‘A Prize i" ‘i beauty aim‘ life is cinders. ashes and dust for them, and they might as well emwi into their coffins and pull the lids down over than.

They think that the doors of opportunity are shut ln- their faces; that they will never nave n date, m- a, good job, 01‘ get married. and that they

are destined to occupy back seats in the world and be pitted and have everybody say "isn't it Just too bad about poor Mary?"

Now. of course. every woman would like t0 have" a peaches-and-cresm complexion and be a Power; model, but it is not true that unless n girl is whistle bait she is hopelessly handicapped.

the women who have achieved fame and fortune didrrt do ft on their looks. and that the world is full of happy wives who are undeniably short on pulchritude.

BEAUTY OVER-VALUE!)

, .

As a matter of fact. there is nothing that girls overvaluc more than they do beauty. It isn't half as potent as they think it is. Just. as often it is a curse instead of a blessing. and there are plenty of compensations for the ugly duckling if she will just make use of them, instead of sitting down and bewaillng herself because she isn't l swan.

The no eiy girl can substitute a lot of attractions for the lack of beauty. rains. for instance. She can make herself so intelligent, so interesting. so amusing and such good company that mbody wi‘.i notice whether her nose turns up or down. She can flatter other peo- ple, instead o1 expecting them to flatter her. and that always makes a hit. She can be such s good dancer and play such a keen game of bridge that men will fight to be her partners. On-ly the beautiful can afford to be dumb. The plain girl has to be smart.

Except for the movies and the dress and rnillinery trade, a girl's face isn't her fortune when it comes to gutting a job. Oniythe em- ployers who bode a girl no good, pick out living pictures to adorn their offices. The average man is more interested in the accuracy of his secretary's figures than he is in the perfection of her figure. Also he has the fear of his wife before his Eyes. and he doesn't want to keep explaining to the Little Woman why he never seems able to find a fat. puddle-aged woman for a stenographer.

Nor ls it true that the beauties make the best marriages. Men are inconsistent creatures and. although they pay lip service to beauty, they seldom marry for.it. The pretty girl gets a rush. but it doesn't always end at the altar. Every community is full of old maids who in their day were noted belles and beauties whom men hung around like bees around a honeypot. but whom they didn't marry.

Somehow, when it came to picking out a wife. they selected girls who were just so-sc as to looks. but who had good durable. domestic qualities, and who hadn't been so spoiled by flattery that they wouldn't be sbic to appreciate their luck in getting a good husband and be will- ing to hand him a few compliments.

S0. ugly duckiings, cheer up. Don't worry about your looks. If you make yourselves interesting and loveable. oecple will think you are beautiful whether you are or not.

POSTURE IS KEY TO LEAN MIDDLE

Almost any posture-lazy woman can haul in her waistline two inches by pulling up slack to shoulders and chest.

Isn't that ‘an incentive to straigh- ten up? Yer?

In pulling up the slack, frankly admit that you have I chest. Tuck, in your abdomen. Swing your hips in. Then, in your mirror standing aide-view, examine the lean. tdut line through your midriff.
