Once you have pvercome this you will be surprised at the rapid increase in your weight, as this worry is, more than anything else, the reason for your , feeling of timidity. jack of weight. ND so, I have given you in to- L\ day's lesson an unusual exer- cise. I have chosen it for you cause it reverses the action of the ly and gives you a new self-con- dence. At first you will think it is ~ impossible to ex- ecute it, but it is a simple matter when the body is proper- AM ly braced. a You will note in the illustration that the weight is sup- ported by the hands, and the feet balance the body by pressing gainst woschnens the wall.

You may hesitate the first time you attempt this exercise, but it is just in overcoming this hesitan- ey that its chief virtue lies. “The agility with which you fling the body from the floor up to the wall is also very helpful, and again, as rou lower the body to the floor, t it be with deliberate action. This gives you an extra chance to stretch every muscle and liga- ment. We have considered the question of reakfast and luncheon, Mut’ it ts bout your dinner that [ wish chiefly lo speak to you.

What the Girl To Be a Successful Writer “WRITE, Many Fields Are Open to the WRITE, Young Woman Who Feels She Can Make a Living by Her Pen, WRITE” SHOULD BE Mast Know MOTTO of } but She Should Be Certain of BEGINNER } Her Ability and Enthusiasm. Since oraduating from Vassar MISS HELEN FERRIS has written fon such magazines as the Ladies’ Home Journal, Pictorial Review and Outlooke she has published several boo! including @ new one on *'Producing Amateu? Entertainments,” and she has always encouraged the girl who wants to writa to follow her bent and work up her own specialty. ARTICLE IV. By Helen Ferris. Copyright, 1922, (New Tork Evening World) by Press Publishing Company. HAT shall the girl who likes to write do about it? The an- swer depends upon how much she likes to write and upon how de. termined she {sto write. Given the liking and the de- termination, ex- perience in actual writing will wltt- mately show a girl it writing is ELEN FERRIS. what she most Wishes to do and a further consid- eration—by no means least important —if she has sufficient real ability to justify years of effort. A girl to get this experience, to test her own ability, must write—and write —and write. Wherever she is—write. If she is still In high school or coi- lege, she should take advantage of every opportunity she can find in the high school or college publica- tions; in those newspapers which pub- lish school and college news, items and articles. She should keep a jour- nal of what she is doing and thinking (by no means forgetting the think- ing!). In short, she should neglect no opportunity to express in words her own ideas. But, after all, liking to write and even doing the actual writing is but one step. If she is an observant young person, any girl who fs in earnest will soon realize the importance of hav- ing something to say and of being able to say that something well. As she writes, very frequently she is faced with the question, “What Is the word I need here?’ And she es that every writer must have at her command a wide and discriminating vocabulary Often she looks at what she has writ- ten and wonders, “Is this the best way to say it?” And she kaows that, after all, the construction of her sentences cannot be disregarded. Or perhaps she asks, “Am T writing this so that others will get what [I mean?” A highly important’ consideration of what Robert Louis Stevenson has : "The difficulty is not to write, but to write what you mean; not to affect your reader, but to affect him precisely as you wish." ' For the girl who likes to write and who is still in school her courses in literature may give her an intimate acquaintance with the Ideas of great artists anj the way in Which they have exoressed those ideas. Her courses in English composition and description may call her attention to the weaknesses in her own sentence construction and vocabulary. Perhaps in her school a course in logic is offered. Of this subject one L§ eminent American critic has said: pelleve every writer should study logic. Why? Because one of the. confronting a writer is first prob’ the necessity for writing clearly, And you cannot write clearly unless you are logical.” In the courses which are not di- rectly connected with literature and writing. a girl may continually broaden her knowekige of what peo- ple the world over have been and are doing and thinking; of the great forces of nature with whieh the scien courses have to do, All of which will be an asset to the girl who likes to write when the time comes for her to venture forth But what about that time? What opportunities in the fleld of writing are there to carn one's living-a ne- cessity which faces most of us? A writer may, in general, do one of two things: take a patd position where she will use her writing ability, or do what is commonty called “free-lanc- ing."’ where her income is entirely dependent upon her own ability to write what can be sold to magazines, newspapers or publishers. If a girl decides to look for a paid position (and many young writers find it wise to start in this way) she may find an opening in any one of the following: Advertis- ing, publicity work, or on the stuff of a magazine, a newspaper or publish- ing house, In advertising, she may enter an advertising agency, which handles such national advertising a8 we see in popular magazines, adver- tising which tells of the special and distinctive advantages of everything from automobiles to garden seeda, Or she may enter the advertising depart- ment of a business concern such as a department store. Some one is kept lusy writing the advertise ts which appear every day, in the news- apers, and, very frequently, that per- son !s a young woman, Not that the beginner immediately advances to the writing of these advertisements, No, indeed In advertising, as in every- thing else, she must spend time arn how. In the feldof publicity she may be employed by €2 organization such as the League of Women Voters, assists ing {n the preparation of newspaper or magazine articles, booklets or bul letins, telling of the work which the organization is doing. In publicity, as well as in advertising, there arg also agencies which do general work. Upon the staff of a magazine a girl may be able to find a position assist- ing in one of the editorial offices to which come the many articles and stories submitted to the magazines Here she may learn how a is planned and published, why the various articles and stories are ac- cepted. One editor has said that a girl interested in the magazine field can get valuable experience by work- ing as secretary to an editor (this, of course, if she has a knowledge of stenography and typewriting). In the newspaper world there are positions for women both in the gen- eral reporting staff, in the specialties such as fashion work, society, feature and similar columns, and occasionally, in the advertising departments, where assistance is given advertisers In pre« paring suitable copy. This field, how ever, is both uncertain and, as @ rule, less well paid. It always has its at~ tractions, nevertheless, and contains plenty of variety and interest for the girl who likes to write In a publishing house a girl may, enter as office assistant in any one of the various departments which have to do with the publishing of books, She may not write much at first, but later, as she becomes experienced, she may have opportunity to help in the preparation of the various pamphlets issued by the publishers. ‘These are among the paid positions which the girl who likes to write may, find. I say “may” because there are not numbers of them on every hand, In the various places where her spe- cial ability may be of use a girl must search, recognizing the fact that here, as in other fields, a beginner must gain experience. But what of the girl who wishes to be free to write whatever she pleases, to “free-lai ‘f Perhaps her cir- cumstances dre such that she need not depend for her living upon the im- mediate selling of what she writes, This girl is, indeed, a free free-lance. On the other hand those who are faced with the bread-and-butter necessity, try various plans. Some work in full- time pafd positions until they have sayed enetigh to finance-a year or so of free-lancing without worry for im- mediate income. They then’ resign their positions and embark upon their literary adventuring, Others who can write special are ticles are sometimes able to make ar- rangements for the steady marketing of @ series of such articles, thus mak- ing sure of their living expenses while having free time left in which te write as they will, Still others work in paid positions for part-time only, doing their writing in their free retches of time. But all of these various plans aim at the one thing which the writer who is engaged in creative work must haye—literary, freedom, Next Article—Domestic Science.
