Health is a by-product of play, but it is a by- product which is a larger value than any direct result. Of course, games in America and the Philipppines may be so played as to aug- ment evils.

Sometimes the reason that a girl has no friends is because she is a spoil sport. She never wants to do what other people want to do. 1f the others want to dance, she wants to skate. If the others want eat unless she can have a certain kind of food cooked in a particular manner. She can't sit backwards on a car, or walk in the sun, or sit in a drausht, and she has to be fussed with so much that she simply isn't worth the trouble. She's a wet blanket on any jolly little party, and after an experience or two in trying to please her, and listening to her complaints, everybody decides that the best place for her is her own home. So they leave her there. The real reason, however, that most friendless girls don't have friends is be- cause they haven't the friendly spirit themselves. They want other people to make all the advances. They expect other people to go out of their way to hunt them up, and show them attention, and to pry them out of their shells of re- serve, What conceit! What arrogance! What peculiar worth and charm has any one got that makes it worth busy people's time and trouble to seek a girl out, and make ' friends with her in spite of ‘her- selt? There are to many agreeable and friendly people who are ready to meet us half way and make themselves pleas- ant for us to bother with the cranky and grouchy and people with ‘‘ways” that we would have to put up with if we have anything to do with them. So we leave O .AVAVAVY l these to thelr own melancholy com- panjonship. If you are not popular &nd have no friends, be sure it's your own fault, girls. Lock into your hearts, and see wh the matter with yourself that people don't like you; for, after all, the world's just a looking glass that gives us back our own reflections. If we turn a sour face on it, it scowls back to us, but if we smile at it, it laughs back at us. Be friendly, and you'll have friends, Reach out the glad hand to other people, and they'll give you the clasp that makes you one of the great brotherhood and sisterhood of humanity. brother—but only a holiday—since James was a beginner off on a vacation from law school. Joy's New Year's resolution was to sottle down sensibly with Eric. Jimmie New Year's rosolution was to be on the level with 'the whole world from now on, He began on big brother * * * and told features and red hair and blue eyes, and bringing the concomitant sense of humor and shrewdness to bear on the situation, figured out that the #00 he had expended on a certain platinum-set Jéwel wasn't going to bring in the right sort of interest. And within a week after the New Year, wise little Joy was wise to her own sorrow. Little brother Lochinvar had gone back to the west without taking any malden fair along. And big brother was too absorbed in business to answer calls on his phone or any personal to make personal calls over it.
