Neatness And Courtesy A Boon
To Girls Starting First Job
If you're planning to begin
your first full-time job upon
graduation this June, you may
be a little frightened at the
prospect.
Don't be.
The change from classroom
to office will be an adventure.
You'll enjoy more money and
more Independence than
you've ever had before. And
you'll have more responsibi
lities.
A good appearance and co
operative attitude will go a
long way In smoothing your
adjustment to the business
world. To help you make the
change, here are some sug
gestions from Aetna Life &
Casualty, which employs over
15,000 women nailonallyl
MAKE-UP: Avoid heavy
make-up, especially on y*nr
eyes. Use a light touch to
achieve a natural look.
HAIR: Wear It long or short,
up or down, whichever way
has served the church so
faithfully for more than 12
years.
The circle members en
joyed group singing under the

pleases you and compliments
your face, but always have It
shining clean and neat.
POSTURE: Stand tall.
Slouching does nothing for the
fit of your clothes, your ap
pearance, or the way you feel.
And, you won't tire as easily
If you sit with your back
straight and feet on the floor
while typing.
CLOTHES: Your business
wardrobe need not be expen
sive. Many of the clothes you
already own will adapt nicely
to office wear. Simple
dresses, of course, are al
ways appropriate. And you
can utilize many of your skirts
if you wear them with attrac
tive blouses or dress swea
ters. Save the button-down
collars and shet lands for cas
ual wear. Leave your mini's
at home. They don't adapt
very well to sitting at a type
writer or bending over flies.
Hemlines should fall anywhere
from the bottom of your knees
to an Inch above them, de
pending on your preference.
SHOES: While either high or
low heels are acceptable,
you'll probably find the new
lower heel styles most com
fortable. Loafers and sandals
are out.
HOSE: A must In the office,
winter or summer. But keep
them businesslike. Fishnet or
textured stockings are
"kicky" for fun times but not
for work. Naturally, tights
and knee socks are taboo.
JEWELRY: Keep it simple.
Dangling errlngs and Jangling
bracelets are not only inap
propriate in the office but
present a safety hazard. They
can get caught on typewriters
and file drawers.
HANDS: Keep them weU
groomed at all times. They
are In the spotlight when you
perform office duties. Nails
should be of medium length
and evenly tapered. Long
nails have a habit of break
ing when you type or, worse
yet, getting In the way. A
coat of clear or light polish
will make your nails more
attractive and give them
added strength to help prevent
peeling and splitting.
VOICE: Keep your voice con
trolled and distinct, especially
in telephone conversations.
PERSONALITY: Be friendly.
You'll find that your co
workers will respond fav
orably. And remember that
your boss deserves respect
and consideration.
OFFICE ETIQUETTE: You
will want to be more formal
at work than you would be at
home. Remember that any rule
of etiquette is based on one
simple concept? making those
around you feel comfortable
In your presence. If you are
polite and courteous, you will
quickly feel "at home" In your
new Job.
Progress Too Swift
"What can I do to get a good
night's sleep?" the woman
asked the doctor.
"Try taking a glass of warm
milk and a little scraped ap
ple Just before going to bed."
"But, doctor, six months
ago you told me to go to bed
fasting!"
"I know," said the doctor.
"But medical science has
made tremendous strides
since then you know."

Health And Beauty
American women are quite
often horrified when they look
Into the mirror and, for the
first time notice a reflection
of maturity. Some go to the
extreme of retiring into a
shell and begin to act as If
life Is over. This Is said to
happen most often to beautiful
women who have developed few
Interests in life other than
themselves.
There Is a great lesson for
all of us to take note of In
this. Also, an important truth
of life we would do well to
Instill In our children.
We should not be afraid to
look our age. What we should
try for Is to look as nice as
we can at every age. All the
wrinkle cream and face lift
ing in the world will not make
a woman of 45 look like one
of 25.
We don't want to stand as If
we are against any cosmetic,
cream or dye. However, these
should be used to make what
one has look Its best. Coloring
the hair Is fine. However, af
ter 35 it must be done with a
great deal of care.
So, if you are forty, fifty,
sixty or more you must accept
the fact that nothing can change
your physical years, but you
can, by the wise use of diets,

clothes, exercise, undergar
ments, and cosmetics, make
real beauty the measure of
your goal.
The average woman has
more time for herself after
forty than at any time of her
life. She can use this time to
Improve and broaden herself
or to brood and bemoan the
passing of youth.
Take stock of yourself.
There probably are many
things you can do to Improve
your face and figure.
There is a surprising num
ber of people, many of them
