Beauties’ Hints
Boys In Uniform
Want Girls To Be
Good Listeners
^IsT MOOiiii, USO Leader.
BY ALICIA HART
You modern charmers, who want
to be popular with the boys in
uniform, would do well to follow
the old-fashioned rule: be a good
listener.
So says Mrs. Maurice T. Moore,
leader of a half million young
women volunteer hostesses in USO
club and units, who has found
that faithful followers of this rule
never run the risk of being wall
flowers.
The girl who not only listens
but looks interested in what her
partner has to say. finds plenty
of young men wanting to cut in
on her all evening long.
“That doesn’t mean a girl has
to be perenially stricken speech
less,” Mrs. Moore wants it under
stood. “But knowing how to
listen intelligently and keep the
conversation going, will make her
much more popular than trying
to command and force the con
versation.”

each chopped celery and shredded
raw carrot).
Soften gelatin in cold water.
Dissolve bouillon cubes in boiling
water, or use boiling clear stock.
Add gelatin and sti v until dis
solved. Add lemon juice. Cool,
and when mixture begins to thick
en, fold in chopped meat and
chopped celery (or left-over veg
etables or chopped celery and
shredded raw carrot). Turn into
1-quart mold or loaf pan that has
been rinsed out in cold water first.
Chill. When firm, unmold onto
salad greens and serve with real
mayonnaise.
