Her mother | T.ainly never encouraged her much to | herself. and often used o say in | t of her that it was a pity Margery was so awkward. as there was no use putting pretty frocks on her. Her father didn’t much like girls, anyway, Margery grew to be afraid even to make friends with the children in her own school classes. She grew up afraid of herself. her abilities, life, people. of which might have been avoided, she wasn't a bit ugly or awkward. This kept up until Margery was 28.

My measurements are: Neck 13; bust. 34; waist, 27: hips, 36: thigh, 18 calf. 13; ankle, 9; shoe size, 7'y AA For sports 1 wear a three-eyelet oxford and apron effect in contrasting color. | Can you suggest s good style for a dress shoe? ANXIOUS. Answer—You are only a couple of pounds below the average weight for vour age and height. Your measure- ments are good except the thigh. which is rather small, and the calf also. As vou grow older. however, these measure- ments will probably increase. For a dressy shoe for afternoons you may choose a patent leather, suede or satin n a low-cut oxford style with a cut-out design in the uppers. The high-cut pump with a cut-steel or rhinestone buckle would also be suitable. LOIS LEEDS (Copyrizht. 1928.)
