I’m not doing justice to my husband, or to myself, because I’m so over-sensitive, easily embar rassed, always taking things per sonally. I worry for weeks over some trifling mistake. If I have to do something unusual—enter tain guests, attend a meeting, call on a stranger—I worry about it night and day. “When I tackle the job, I suc ceed well enough in most in stances—so why worry? That’s what people tell me. I could be happier, more helpful to my hus band in his profession, and more inspiring to my two children, if I could have a different frame of mind.” There are things you can do, Mrs. C., but they demand persist ence, determination, and plenty of time. You’d do better with a teacher, but since you have none, start by writing out your own history. Do this fuly, a little at a time. Begin as far back as you can remember, and trace all the events, all the in fluences, that you think may have contributed to your present diffi culty. Many of them will be per fectly plain to you. Merely getting a perspective in this way will help you. Then look around and see how many others have some of the same difficulties. Along with this, build up morale by improvements necessary in dress, grooming, hair-do, and the like. Finally, keep track of your achievements. Dwell on those a little more. Bear in mind that you can do it, because you have al ready done it! Questions and Answers. Q. Why are men so conceited and egotistical? A. Man has had the initiative, has been the aggressor, in dealing with the other sex. If he fulfills this role, he has to believe in him REDUCE , / 2 FOR Th# 4 Pric« | of . . .

He has to build up a somewhat artificial stock of self confidence in order to carry him through these difficulties. When his self-satisfaction becomes too large in proportion to the small reason he has for self-satisfac tion, we call it conceit. Some men are spoiled by their own mothers, who continually tell them how wonderful they are. Later in life, women find they can manage a man easily in many instances by flattery, so this in tensifies the feeling. Q. Do boys talk about girls as much as girls talk about boys? A. Probably not in high school, because the girls are more mature socially and emotionally and near er the age of marriage. Older women also seem to talk more about the other sex than men do. Q. Wonder if L ought to change the color of my hair. Do men really prefer blonds? A. Several surveys gave the blonds only about one-third of the votes. There are so many things more important that you needn’t bother about hair color. Go to work on your personality and temperament, instead. Oopyrliht, 1949.
