After school, In the barn attached to our home In New Rochelle, the family would gather and the sessions would begin, father Instructing me in all kinds of steps and mother teaching me ballet and grace and deportment. And In the evening, when Jessons had been prepared, she and father would take me aside and teach me how to smile. Knowing how to smile and when to smile is one of the most difficult arts associated with dancing. "One must not smile too much, otherwise the appeal of coqustry and winsomeness Is lost.

The Rule of Three In Classified Advertising Is to Insert Your Want Ad —in the — INDIANAPOLIS TIMES for Three Days And it's a rule that works well. You reach people on the second and third days who, for some reason or other, did not see your ad the first day that it ran; and those who saw it the first day but were unable to answer it immediately. If your ad does not appear on the second or third day, these people will assume that your need has been filled. A three-day ad will result in more answers than a one-day ad, thereby giving you a wider choice and greater likelihook of getting the answer that you desire. In case you fill your wants, you may stop your ad by phoning us, and you will be charged only for the days on which the ad appeared.
