w OMAN’S PAGE The Woman Who Makes Good BY HELEN WOODWARD. Who started her career as a_frightened typist and + the highest paid business women Will They Be Tempted ? Many mothers are worried about the temptations their daughters may meet in offices. But really, that worry is mostly wasted. ‘What a girl usually sees is a great many other girls working very hard. If they have beaus, these are young men also working hard to make & living. If the boss has a sweetheart, it's um‘&y w';rll;- uite outside g:gdyof fice. And if there is a girl who is having some sinful love affair she is likely to be a warning rather - than a source of Helen Woodward P to the other I remember years ago we had a stenographer who used to get in very late every morning. Her chief was pa- tient at first because she was so com- petent and at the same time so sensi- tive, but after a while he told her that she must get in on time. She looked very much upset, but she kept right on being late. He scolded her severely. For a while she came on time, and then she slipped again into the old way. Everybody suspected she had some sort of secret. Well, you can't keep & secret permanently among a lot of people whom you see all day long. Soon we heard that she was living with a man to whom she was not married. If there was a girl in that office who was tempted to do likewise, she cer- tainly must have loved misery. The r_girl might have been pretty if Z;l.: had been less worried and brow- beaten. The man was completely worthless. Both of them lived on her $30 a week. He was always locking for a job, but he never got one. It took her three-quarters of an hour to get to work in the morning. Before she left home she had to clean up her apartment and cook breakfast. The man did not even wash the dishes. ‘Then she worked in the office all day. She was a conscientious and careful worker. She said little. She had no un. Her lateness - caused so much con- fusion that she was finally discharged. She bore no resentment. She said that the discharge was just, but that she had so much to do in the morning she couldn't be on time, and she would have to get a job nearer home. was many years ago, and I never think of this poor girl without a sinking of the heart.

NANCY PAGE High School Graduation Calls for Many Clothes BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. ‘The Jones twins were keeping to their record of always doing things to- gether. They were both graduating from high school in the same class and naturally their. clothes were going to be_alike. For senfor class day exercises they planned to wear suits with rather new and different points. The dresses had georgette guimpes. Both sleeves and neck lines were finished in the same fashion—a deep ruffle of eyelet em- broidery. The ruffle around the neck came down over the body of the dresses in_fluffy fashion. was repeated in the peplum of the coat. The coat sleeves were just a bit shorter than the three-quarters length sleeves of the guimpe.

GUNN, Cheerfulnes: “And now I exhort you to be of good cheer.”—Acts, xxvii.22, ‘The more I observe people and how they get along in the world the more I am convinced that one of the primal factors that mark some for success and others for fallure is cheerfulness or the lack of it. One of the world’s greatest successes was Andrew Carncgie. Certainly any word from him on the matter of success is_worthy of attention, and he said: “There is very little success where there is little laughter.” He had observed thousands of employes who worked for him, and he had seen that when people are and grumpy they work ly, but when in a happy and laugh- mood they work well. - is & saying, “Nothing succeeds like success.” When people see you in a gloomy, despondent mood they nat- urally take it that you must be failing in your work or business. Let them see you always cheerful and with a smile on your face, and they assume that you are mhn{ go of things. And you know it is the succeeding business it attracts clients, not the business that is failing. So with one's mood, besides the effect it has upon himself, deter- the measure of his efficiency, it has a most determining effect on a man’s business, patrons being attracted thereto or driven away, according as his mood indicates success or failure. All along the line cheerfulness is one of the greatest alds to success. It con- tributes greatly to one's mental and physical eMclency. It makes him a bet- ter thinker and a better worker. It is most effective in winning clients, cus- tomers, friends and supporters, and this is something lnmn&. le to success in any trade, profi or business. Give the world gloom, and gloom will be about all the world will give you. The man who wins the world’s good will is the man who goes out to meet the world in a winning mood. . “And now I exhort you to be of good cheer.” It will not only make you a better worker; it will make everybody like you better. Not only will it con- tribute to your business success, but to our social success. It will make you a | His T man to live with, as well as for the business you are doing. Therefore be cheerful. BEDTIME STORIES Makes Amends. ¥, folks in love may silly see S e e When Mrs. Yellow Wing nodded and sidled, over and touched Yellow Wing with her bill, his heart leaped for joy. Yes, sir, it did so. It was a very simpie little action, but it meant a great deal. It is the Flicker way of showing that a lover has been accepted. Yellow Wing's rival saw that simple action and in- stantly knew that all his attentions to Mrs. Yellow Wing, all his showing off, had been for nothing. He stopped nod- “I LOVE YOU, MY DEAR,” HE KEPT SAYING OVER AND OVER. ding and bowing and spreading his wings and tall. He flew up in a tee, looked down disgustedly on the antics of Yellow Wing, gave a loud call and flew over toward the Green Forest, to|Ji try to find some one else who would be his mate. What he didn’t know was that the loss of two feathers from his tail had made diculous the eyes of Mrs. Yellow Wing. As for Yellow Wing, he became quite beside himself with joy. He redoubled his efforts to show what a handsome fellow he was and to bow and nod and say soft nothings to Mrs. Yellow Wing. voice became very soft and sweet. “I Jove you, my dear,” he kept saying over ‘and over. “You are the most beautiful person in all the Great World.

He suddenly jumped into the air and then to go up, up, up in a spiral. He didn’t do it cefully as & member of the Hawk ’:l‘nfly ht ‘have done it. He didn’t do 1t smoof as Longbill the Woodcock would do it. He went up and up in funny jerks, until he was little more than a speck in the sky, and then he came down in the same funny, jerky manner and alighted in a tree just over Mrs. Yellow Wing. It was an unusual performance. He had never done it be- fore. It was, s I said before, just be- cause he-had to do something extra to express his joy. Mrs. Yellow Wing looked up at him with such a look of loving admiration that Yellow Wing wanted to do it again. He couldn’t just then because he simply had to rest. He wasn't used to making such fligh “Oh,"” ahe sald softly, “you are stmply wonderful. I never knew before how wonderful you are.” As soon as he got his breath Yellow Wing dropped down beside her, and such a bowing and swinging of heads and funny ‘little hops and spreading of wings and. talls as followed. They flew up in a tree and continued their funny antics there., They peeped at each other around the trunk. They said pretty things to each other in low voices. They forgot that there was any one else in all the Great World. Now all the other feathered folk.in the Old Orchard were watching these antics. “Did you ever in your life see such silly people?” demanded Sammy ay. ‘They do look silly,” admitted Wel- come Robin, “but they are in love and that msbes @ difference.

The making of mayonnaise dressing is a trick we learned from French cooks, but we have developed a method all our own in making use of this im- portation. One thing that many Amer- ican travelers abroad miss most, and are most eager to taste when they re- turn home, is “our American saiads.” They mean our salads mixed with mayonnaise dressing. True, they have salads in Prance, Italy and elsewhere, and they haye mayonnaise, but they don't use their mayonnaise on their salads. Such a dish as our pineapple salad, consisting of slices of pineapple filled with cream cheese, served on let- tuce leaves with mayonnaise, is the sort of salad that Americans usually find only in their native land.

As most women know, new businesses must invariably pocket | losses during their early days. Only a firmly established and well managed and operated business can survive those initial losses. Determining on whether or not @ new business can weather its early adversity is a job for soothsayers. ‘Women with money to invest should ponder deeply on that fact. No matter how promising the future of a new ven- ture may seem, it will be a fact still that its existence beyond the birth stage is a gamble. That is why woman in- vestors have been advised to in ite new ventures with a mind to the capi- talists, managers and operating force engaged in promoting them.
