WHAT ARE THE YEARS
DOING TO US?

One year has gone its way.
Another is just beginning. What
are these years doing to us?
Making us older? Yes, naturally,

And more mature?

Well — ‘

Let's begin with our mental
stock and sort’of assess our po-
tentialities. We .each have a
brain, and quite'a wonderful one
at that if we can believe some of
the things said about it, It is said
that we have much more than
we use, Indeed it has been esti-
mated that the average person
gets along on from 10 to 15 per-
cent of his brain’s capacity. That
seems a rather shocking state-
ment, but there it is. How should
we deal with it?

If we get along, even as well
as we do, on 15, percent of our
mentality, we should certainly
do very much better if we took
the trouble to develop more of it
for use.

Now don’t say: “If I've come
this far on a small

This is especially true when she
has a good fur coat, a basic suit
semi-tailored and abasic dress
with good lines, This is where
the accessories come in to dress
your clothes up or down to suit
any occasion,

The whole appearance of a
dress or suit can be changed by
varying the color in shoes and
purse, blouse, hat, gloves, jewel-
ry, flowers and scarves. Even the
the modest handkerchief can
play its little part.

It is well to remember that
bright colors call attention to
size and to any figure irregulari..
ty such as large hips, But
bright colors can be used to ad-
vantage in small areas, Color
emphasis at the neck or on a
hat wili make a’ short person

BANQUET HELD FOR
H, W. HERRIDGE, MIP.

Two Castlegar men—-Graham
Smith and Jack Kelly — were
among the friends and support-
ers attending a supper meeting
for H. W. Herridge, CCF Mem-

At long last I've done it!
After years of vacillation, inde-
cision, moral cowardice and not
a little plain laziness—I've bought
an umbrella.

Surely, no great and note-
worthy action, you say? Very
well, take 2 look about you and
note the number of Canadian
males who are sporting such &
piece of luggage. Or attempt to
buy one and note the dearth of
choice, The closest that most
males get to an umbrella in
North America is when through
outdated gallantry or to save
their eyes from a violent end
they undertake to carxy it over
the head of some female friend

of the same color. A red hat and
purse or scarf would, lend in-
terest to a simple navy suit. But
a red hat, bag, scarf and gloves

I can go the rest of the way. Be-
sides, I’m too old to learn.” That
sounds to me like you are un-
aware of true values, And men-
tal capacity, even in the .raw,
is much too valuable a gift to
throw away lightly.

As for you being “too old’
to learn, what age is “too old?”
Ago may be much less import-
ant than you think in the learn-
ing process, You aren't too old
to make the most of your physi-
cal appearance, are you? No?
Well good; I'm glad to hear that,

When you realize that you
have within possible reach some-
thing infinitely more valuable
than trimness of figure and fault-
less grooming, you may. wish to
doubt that you are “too old” to
try to attain it. And maybe wish-
ing to doubt it is just what you
need for your first step toward a
new adventure in learning.

Let's not let the years, one
after another, just add age with-| 2
out any growti toward maturi-
ty.

- ACCESSORIES MAKE ALI--

ent part in the wardrobe of any

would be altogether tog much,

Don't combine tailored and
dressy accessories in the same
outfit. Strive tor harmony in cut-
line, color scheme and quality of
materials,

Don't overdeck yourself with
jewelry. Always wear shoes in
keeping with your costume, Ac-
cessories are within the reach of
every pocketbook so you can
easily afford two or three sets
of accessories, Try to have one
light, one dark and one bright
colored. At least one of these sets
would be tailored and one dressy.
With these ‘additions to your
wardrobe, you can be well dress-
ed for whatever social event
comes along.
