Ua&CabHSttie^- , Author of * r How to Win Friend* and Influence People.* CHARM V Here are six specific rules that will help every girl to make her self more charming. These rules were given me by Dr. Joseph R. Sevier, President of the Passifern School for QirLs, in Henderson vllle, North Carolina. A course on how to be charm ing is among the regular curricu lum of this popular girls' school. How sensible. In all the world is especially for you and this event.

C. Penney Co., Inc. anything more necessary for a girl? If anybody should know the problems of girls, It's Joseph R. Sevier, for he's taught and man aged them for 20 years. In addi tion to being the president of Passifern, he has a summer camp for girls, Camp Qreystone, in the North Carolina mountains. I asked Dr. Sevier if he taught THE ELKIN TRIBUNE, ELKIN, NORTH CAROLINA a Southern drawl as a part of his course, and he said, "No. Charm Is deeper than a manner •of speech. Naturally many of our girls have what Is called 'the Southern accent,' but we have Northern girls who haven't any at all, and they're equally pleas ing as our Southern girls." Here they are, girls, just as you would get them In the classroom at Passifern: 1. Interest yourself In others instead of trying to interest others in you. The great secret of charm is in thinking of the other person. 2. Don't monopolize the conver sation. Draw out other members of the company present. Remem ber, that every person has an ego he wishes to express. 3. Do not expect constant praise. The girl who invariably tries to draw praise soon grows tiresome. If she wishes to make a good impression, it would be far better to praise the other person. To be liberal with praise If it is sincere, will lead toward making a dozen friends where the praise seeker makes one. 4. Listen respectfully to the opinions of others. Do not make light of them because you do not agree with them. Besides, the other person may be right. 5. Cultivate a skill which will give pleasure to others. By "skill" is mean',, habits which will in fluence and sere other people. For example, the girl who can play the piano or tennis, or is clever in other entertaining ways, is likely to be considered more charming than the girl who does none of these things. Singing, story-telling, making quick cari catures of those present, and for tune telling, will add to the amusement of a group. In other words, the girl who "does some thing" is more charming than the girl who sits back, contribut ing nothing. 6. If you feel a.person is lonely talk to him, serve him tea. There are many ways in which you can give attention and create happi ness. Above all, says Dr. Sevier, give up the idea that charm consists of beautiful clothes, an accent, a smile. It's deeper and far more fundamental! Since these qualifications are sometimes not stressed in the home, Dr. Sevier is providing Fassifern girls with an asset that will serve them long after their diplomas may have crumbled into dust, an asset they often will find of far greater value than all the book-learning that may come their way.
