THE TOWN TATTLER
It seems as if my little column
of last week really struck home in
quite a few instances. You could
'just see the fumes going up. Every
one seemed to have recognized
themselves so there must have
(been a littl guilt on everyone’s
■part. Dear people, have I really
•‘hurt your feelings or did I increase
your vanity just a little, because
you know it’s true that only im
fportant people make the paper!
Maybe I <am just a wee bit envi
ous of your popularity in the com
munity, let’s just leave it at that,
shall we (ha, ha) ?
(Now next time don’t make it so
obvious to everyone what you are
doing and I won’t have a chance
o write about it.
I see though that some of the
people I wrote about took my ad
vice and started doing something!
.about their different situations. If
C have helped someone by being
frank, I am very gtad. On the
other hand I must admit though,
that everyone has been really nice
this week, and didn’t give me any
thing to write about. Shame on
you, you know hew I love to gossip.
'Now I am going to give all my
‘friends” a Christmas gift, and
that is not to write any gossip
about them. I wish one and all a
very Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year.
However, I will be on the job
next week and I can promise I
will write it as I see it and hear
.(*.
Your good friend.

She took off the mink coat, reveal-

left.
“By the way,” one of the house !

CHARM
By LOU LuTOUR
NEW YORK, (Global)—Watch;
your telephone voice. Miake it as j
cheerful, beautiful and enthusiastic,
as possible. One voice teacher has;
said, “Keep your voice low and
round.” And a charm teacher has
advised on hew to avoid a mono
tone. She says, “Use a range of
five tones up and down.” If these
instructions prove a little difficult,
try smiling while you are talking
over the telephone. That usually
does the trick.
Q. What can I use to remove old
makeup from iny face, if I wish to
avoid using soap and water on my
skin?
A. Mineral oil is splendid for this
purpose.

Roundtable
By ELGIVA BALL
NEW YORK, (Global)—
Dear Miss Ball:
1 am 13 and in the Bth grade. I
have a sister who is six and I am
very, very lonesome. I like school
very much, but do not have many
friends' The children in my class
laugh at me because I often feel
bad or sick and cannot do my
work. Last week they laughed be
cause I was crying at school. I
was very upset about my mother
and her operation. Also, I felt sick
and was afraid I would die. I fear
dying and don’t know what to do.
Do you think the girls should laugh
at me?
—Julie, Florida
Dear Julie:
You are very young to have such
big problems. This is the time
when you should be having a lot of
fun and be enjoying life. I know
you love your mother very much
and naturally are worried because
she is ill, but you must have faith
in God and believe that He will do
only what is right for you. You •
must also believe that the doctors
at the hospital are very good and
are doing everything to help your
j mother get well. You can help by
being very good so she will not
have added worries.
If you feel bad often, get your
father to take you to see a doctor.
Talk to him frankly and after his
thorough examination, you will
know what to do, to improve your
health. - . • |
One thing, Julie: You will findj
that children can be very cruel. I
They tease often when they see
that it bothers you. Try to show
them that their teasing and laugh
ing does not bother you 'and they
will stop. To have more friends,
why not join 'the YWCA. Keep j
i yourself busy, start a hobby, and
j even try entertaining your sister
sometimes, even though she is
much younger.
Remember, also, that we fear
the things we do not know or un
derstand. Try to learn all you
can about the things you fear, and
it will help you to overcome those
fears. The best of everything to
y°u. E. B.

Q. What treatment is in order
for a dry skin?
* A. Wrinkles occuj most fre
quently in dry skin, and it is not
wise to use soap and water oftener
than once a day. After washifig
the face at night, apply a generous
layer of tissue cream, nourishing
cream, or skin food, leaving on for
a few minutes. Remove the ex
cess, but leave a thin film on over
night. Protect the skin with cream
from the sun or wind.

Share Your
Wisdom
By DR. THOMAS R. GAINES
NEW YORK, (Global) Most
people want to live bravely, hon
estly, and successfully. No normal
persons starts out to make a fail
ure of this life. But envy, jealousy
and mistrust are allowed to mani
fest in the mind, and future shad
ows are being created. Goodwill is
comparable to sunlight. It is
warming and rejuvenating. Hate is
always chilling and destructive for
all concerned. Good will is the
fore-runner of an improved per
sonality and a possible richer measj>
ure of life values. We are here to
live life—to live it successfully, we
must clothe our thoughts and ac
tivities in the mantle of forgive
ness, understanding and infinite
love.
Passenger: “Why did they build
this station so far out of town?”
Station Agent: “Well, I guess it
was because they wanted to have
it near the railroad.”
