A stocking wardrobe lvilll hose for every occasion is not as ex- pensive as it might seem, the CAC says. The average woman spends, more than enough each year on hosiery to maintain a complete stocking wardrobe but. by wearing her sheercst hose at inappropriate times, gets less value for her money.

LOSES PATIENCE some girls want to be nurses;

to be an actress:

tried to renounce the idea of being an actress but it's no use.

When I am reading or at the movies or at the theater I seem to forget my troubles. But when it is over my troubles are back again.

I would like to know how to hand- le them. I have spells (as my mother calls them) when I treat everyone like dirt: and these s p e l I a usually develop after I. have read a good book or seen a good movie.

AUTHENTIC UEGE?

DEAR. P.G.: You write from a mid-western small city from a sec- tion of the country where the native populace tends to conform to a modest routine way of lffe--seem- lngly ordained by "practical" con- siderations-as being inevitable in that particular environment. of those born to the pattern few ever quit it to write their own ticket. And those who do leave are cata- pulted out mostly by 'the explos- ive force of their pent-up discont- ent with the traditional status quo. Someone has- said "Genius is akybori. and will arise"--a truth about the artistic temperament to keep in mind. If you have a vital spark of authentic urgency to be an actress. plus the courage. strength and faith to follow this lead. you win find the road to your goal somehow.

But the SM-question in your case is. do you really want to be an actress? Or is this just an escapist Idea. Just an excuse for rejecting the tough grind of getting down to work. at the job at hand. what- ever it may be. Whether college stl.tdy..or stenographlc wage earn- ::)g or helping in the kitchen at

KEEP IN TRIM

Waist Suppli I!

While overweight is not inherited in the same way as blue eyes or even a million dollars, we do in- herit our build and along with build. the tendency to pile the ud- ded pounds on certain places. Even so. fat cannot be stored on the ausceptlbel spots until weight is above normal. But back to "where" the fat copies on. One reducer writes: "My family is all short and of aquatty build. Ten years ago I re- duced from 152 to 120 pounds for my 5' 2", and slimmed 5 inches off bust. 7 off waist and 5 off the hips. I now measure 35 boat. 27 waist and 38 hips. I have taken the exercises you sent last spring. but haven't been able to slim my waist to N and hips to 3 which I would like. Will I ever be able to reach these mess A ?" For those of us who have a short- waiated figure, it's a struggle to keep the waist within bounds. By keeping supple through the middle measurement. the waist will he slim enough. in the above case. if
