Male Looks v Are Not So / Important BY MARTHA LEE "First impressions are important in malting acquaintances, but not in keeping friends. Men and women, not favored by Venus or Apollo, or whoever it is that endows us with beauty, usually suffer from an inferiority complex that renders them speechless when in the company of those whose approval means everything % Experts in affairs of the heart funanimously agree that personality I nine-tenths of the battle. If one Mu a pleasing manner, a good dis- . ftosition, and a sense of humor, one 'should not have to look far for friends. Facial characteristics have nothing to do with affairs of the soul; in fact, it has been said that there is beauty even in ugliness. A person who is not good-looking must rely on means other than looks to "put himself across." Conversational ability goes a long way. Sincerity means a lot, and also the faculty of being able to be entertaining at the right time. Even Lon Chaney has a host of feminine admirers. An ugly man is loved for his true worth, not for his facial beauty. An ugly man is bjve d not for his classical features and superficial appearance, but for his spiritual qualities. A woman may become infatuated with a “pretty face,” but infatuation and love are different. There is little chance of a woman becoming entranced with a homely man for a brief period, when love comes in such a case it usually is lasting. Dear Martha Lee-1 read vour column • very dav anti have often wondered if you could tender a bit of advice to a lonesome creature —such as T. "I am past thirty and unmarried. I have never been married, and—well—it looks as If I never shall be. I am hideously ugly—a second Lon Chaney. (with apolofdes to that personage. I Thus, lett on the "shelf. - so to say I am not a millionaire, though am ‘‘handsomely - ’ fixed, but the girls just always ignore, me. •'What can I do to win the heart of a fair one? They say beauty is only skin deep, but Oh Lord, how I'd like to be a good looking chap until I’d at least captured a wife. What can X do my dear ,Sdlss Lee? - ’ Just be yourself. Don't try to act 1 flippant, because this is detected easily. Surely there is some girl among your acquaintances who could love you for what you really aie. Don’t ape your good-looking friends who get by on their appearance, but be sincere and respect the girls you meet and surely you will meet a young lady who recognizes true worth. 1 Not every one requires a John Gilbert. John Gilberts are too hard to keep up with. It is much more satisfactory to jog along with a comfortable mate, feeling secure than to try to keep pace with a man whom every girl “falls for" living in constant fear that he may succumb to the wiles of some feminine 1 charmer. A smart girl will recognize your virtues and admire you for them. Forget about your ugliness. If you discount it, so will others.

PARIS, Dec. 27. YEAR Eve’s cominf?...time to get your party dress and accessories lined up, as it were. You know, you absolutely have to have them, or else not go! But the clever woman never stays home for lack of the proper things to wear. She arranges. Let's get at our evening shoes and stockings first. Are your silver slippers tarnished? If they are, it’s probably only on the heels or toes. Voila, hie you to a paint shop and buy silver bronzing powder, banana-oil, and transparent white shellac. Cover the heel or toe, or ail the slipper if you wish, first with a coat of white shellac. When it is perfectly dry, paint it wdth the silver bronzing powder mixed with ba-nana-oil. Now when that in turn is dry, cover once more with a coat of white shellac. You understand these are only last-minute emergency measures for silver slippers you thought practically had seen their day. If they can be reclaimed in any less stringent way, do so. m a a AND now for stockings—get out a pair or buy a pair that you are going to need and hide them away! Next, your evening bag or vanity, handkerchief and jewelry, the little things first, you see, because they are the most important. Now’ any other accessories* that you know you are going to need, such as a fan, an evening cap or diadem, etc. Good heavens, we haven't any more room—but then, we have

I was just about to say there is only one way to pronounce this name, so that there isn’t any use in explaining it, when La Chic Secretaire Americaine let out a yelp and said there may be only one way to pronounce it but that she had heard fifty-seven varieties of that pronunciation! So-o-o, Patou is nothing more or less complicated or difficult than “pa-too.” The accent is on the “too.” Ten times now! B a B Don’t you think you need a blouse? Well, now, let’s see—you can wear it with a sports skirt, you can wear it with a velvet skirt for a dressy afternoon outfit, and sh-h-h-h, as a pajama top for that very special and elegant indoor tea. N’en, when I promise you that you can make it in half an hour, and that you don’t have to know so awful much about sewing—can you resist sending your 2-cent stamp to the Dare Department of The Times for the illustrated leaflet that tells you exactly how to make it?
