In the ordinary routine of life such petty crises occur comparatively seldom. As a rule, a person of moderately sen- sitive nature and good breeding can | squably meet the exigencies of social and business engagements.

STAR, 'WASHINGTON, D. C DorothyDix| Some Beauty and Brains Necessary If Girl Would Be Attractive, But Must Also Be Amia- ble and Adaptable. Lists Essential Graces How to Be Popular A CORRESPONDENT asks: “What makes s girl sitractive, beauty or bfains?” Both. But there must be somethi lus. There are certain other qualities that & girl must also possess she gets the glad hand from her public, and lacking these her good looks and her intel- Hse:u:el get her nowhere and never make her a winner in the popularity contest. Of course, pulchritude is a great asset to a girl. Her looks are the first thing we notice about her and we all enjoy gazing upon a pretty face and & lissom form and are instinctively drawn to a slim young creature with a peaches-and-cream complexion and ambrosial curls, who is a treat to the eves. But good looks are only a surface attraction that does not hold us long unless there is something behind it. "THERE are none of whom we weary 5o quickly as we do of the beau- tiful but dumb. There are none whose soclety we are less eager to seek than the living pictures who ean do nothing but pose in a graceful attitude and who have nothing to give us but the pleasure of beholding them, which is & joy which soon palls upon us. Nor 1is intelligence alone enough to make a girl attractive, even though she be a highbrow entitled to write half the letters of the alphabet after her name. As a matter of fact, the general public, and especially the masculine portion thereof, has never had any great relish for feminine brains. It is not the girls who are noted for their learning or their cleverness or wit who have dates to burn and a waiting list of suitors asking their hands in marriage. Nor do hostesses bremk their necks to get for their parties the girl who understands the Einstein theory or who is famous for her wisecracks. HAT, then, makes a girl attractive? Well, to begin with, she must have a certain amount of good looks, enough to make her pleasant to contemplate, and she must be well dressed and well groomed, for an ugly woman 1s a blot on nature and a sloveply one an insult to the be- holder. Likewise, she must be intelligent enough to make her an in- teresting and amusing companion and prevent her from being s bore. Then she must have amiabilny. Even her beauty depends on that. Next I would put graciousness among the tiunlme. that make a girl at- tractive. Everybody likes the girl who is friendly and pleasant in her manners. Then I should put adaptability among the mesmeric qualities. The attractive girl has tact. She always knows what to say and how to say it. JIINALLY, and perhaps most important of all the qualities that a girl can have that attract us to her is good manners. She does not feel | that just because she is young she can be rude and crude and ride rough- | shod over the world. To sum it all up, the attractive girl must add to good leoks and intelligence amiability, graciousness, adaptability, tact and good manners. DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1931.)

So many gardeners wonder why these beetles are right on hand just when the asparagus is about 2 inches long. Insects always stay close to their source of supply. In April and May the beetles come from their hiding places. Something has tod them their table is all set with the dainty food they like so well. The bright colors of the beetles make them v conspicuois. They are marked with blue, yellow and red, and have slender legs and long antennae. After | feeding for several Hays on the tip of the plant, they meet their mates and | wed. Pretty soon the mother is very busily engaged in placing rows and rows | of tiny, dark brown eggs that look like teeth on a comb. With favorable weather conditions, the eggs will hatch in a week. Wee little grubs with black heads and feet crawl out of their shells and creep to the foliage of the plant, They have little, clinging legs on the surface of their tummy to help them hang to the stem while they fill themselves with asparagus plant.
