CHILD GUIDANCE College Freshmen Too Often , Adopt Snobbish Attitude By G. CLEVELAND MYERS Many parents and old associates of the college freshman may ob- serve some marked changes in his attitude. Some times the attitude is interpreted as arrogance. To the folks back home, this youth may seen to feel superior to them, especially to those who never at- tended college. This college stud- ent tends to grow less pompous and more humble by the time he becomes a senior. What happens to him now is somewhat like what happens fo a rson right dfter he has received degree of doctor of Phisogophy or the second lieutenant just after getting his gold bars. NEW STATUS WILL SHOW Some human frailties may be obvious to the student's family and old friends. The student him- self may be wholly unaware of these, though he may suppose he must demonstrate that he's been going to college. Accordingly, he may be less ' considerate of the ideas and ways his parents, and for more as- sertive of his own opinions. He may drop remarks in his family's midst suggesting his feelings of superiority. He may now consider rather old-fashoned some of the moral and religious principles his parenis have always cherished. e may show indifference to his parents' usual remarks thereon, or he may openly belittle some of these older idea and beliefs. When this college student comes home for a visit, he may avoid his old friends who don't go to college, or may cause them to sup- pose he is "stuck up." Indeed, this college youth may have to be very thoughful of how these friends might feel and very considerate of them in order not to give this im- pression. FEELS HE'S DIFFERENT When this student goes to church he may be more inclined to whisper and engage in other disturbing con- duct than he ever was before. He seems to suppose that having gone to college requires that he take cer- tain liberties with conventions. In ever so many situations he may feel that he should prove himself somewhat superior now. He forgets of course how very little he knows and how much his arents and some of his old friends yh that may not be found in books, He also forgets that some of his old associates may be far brighter than he, and might easily surpass him if they went to college. Yet he may truly become well ed- ucated if he learns to imagine him self in the places of all other per- sons he has known best. The more acadmic learning a person has, the more reason he should have for making persons with less education feel at east in his presence. KEEP IN TRIM Try This Exercise and Enhance That Feeling of Well-Being By IDA JEAN KAIN It's wonderful to be middle-aged it you feel young--and are eager to keep on learning. Here's a good test--you're still Sung if you fully expect your st years are ahead. On the physical side, you cannot feel vigorously young if you've slumped into middle age posture and settled for the spread. Past 35, the muscles most in need of josing are those in the middle of the figure. Regular, mild exercise, particularly the kind that reacts on the four pairs of abdominal mus- gles, enhances that feeling of well- ng. g AID HEALTH, TOO This muscular girdle is not just for ipesrances, To be sure, when it is toned you have a much beter and younger looking figure. But the prime purpose of nature's girdle is to pull up and support the internal organs against the down tug of Favity, Soft muscles in this area avor the deposit of fat, which further strands. The tone of these muscles is so important that even though you skip all the other specific calis- thenics, take an exercise or two to keep those front muscles in con- dition. Here is' a trio of easy ex- ercises. As the muscles are toned, you'll notice that you feel more like Julling up and in as you sit, stand and move. weakens the muscle POSITION: Lie on back on floor with feet elevated to low bench, arms at sides. Movement: Pull up and in firmly with lower abdominal muscles, pressing small of back flat against floor, as you flex one knee toward chest. Return foot to bench, and bend other knee toward chest. Do this exercise slowly, concentrating on pulling up snugly with the girdle muscles. Repeat about a dozen counts. TRY THIS ONE . To work directly on the in-pull- ng muscles, ease into this ercise: osition: Lying on back on floor, both knees bent, soles of feet flat on floor. < Movement: Raise hips just lightly off floor, and tilt them up toward the ht side as you pull in forcibly with the side - front muscles. Return to centre, tilt hips toward other side, again pulling in strongly with side - front bias muscles. Repeat 6 to 12 times. Re- lax by hugging both knees to chest.

MARY HAWORTH'S MAIL Woman Seeks Advice Regarding Problem of Extra-Marital Affair Dear Mary Haworth: I have long been a patron of the arts, music especially, and several years ago, while attending a musical event, I met one of the singers. I am not a percon to take up with strange men, and I cannot explain what happened; but it seemed as if I had known him always. We had been going together sev- eral weeks when I learned from another source that he was mar- ried, none too happily. Immediately I tried to break off our relationship by writing him at once to say why I thought it shouldn't go on. He came at once to my office to per- suade me there was no reason why it shouldn't continue; at least dur- ing the months he is here each SEW-EASY! : By ANNE ADAMS SEW-EASY to make a little girl's story-book dreams come true!

He was gone sev- eral weeks when I realized I was going to be a mother, and when I told him, at the first.opportunity, he suggested I stay in the large city nearest his home during the pregnancy. He had long wanted a child, as his marriage was barren; and strange as it may sound, I wanted this child, too, more than CASHMERE, long a favorite with the sweater set has appear- ed this season for daytime dress- es and sports clothes.

And as a music patron you've spent years "listening in," as it were, on the tragic loves of various characters in-the realm of musical make-believe, identifying yourself with their hungers and experiences. Thus, you were in- fluencing your unconscious mind, suggesting patterns of -unfoldment to it; and the unconscious mind is the architect, or the impelling force, in much that we do.

' PRAYER IS ANSWER The seasonal intrigue has the effect of sweeping your further out to 'sea, away from rational moor- L.|ings, at the mercy of emotional storms. The loss of the child in- tensifies your feeling of spiritual chaos; and in this wasteland David is no help whatever, yet for you (in your confusion) he seems the only refuge possible. The solution of your problem is to pray your way back to moral clarity and emotional composure, back into the sanctuary of God's grace. You must be humble and open- minded about the potential efficacy of this measure; and for guidance in learning to pray, I refer you to Glenn Clark's book '"'God's Reach' (Harper and Brothers); or to the magazine 'Clear Horizons," pub- lished quarterly at 1571 Grand Avenue, St. Paul 5, Minnesota.

With Audrey Hep- burn it was 'years of life under 'Nazi terror. To look at Paramount's bright new star, you wouldn't think that she had anything but the nicest kind of life. She is pert and petite, with a gay, glittering personality. Her nature has been conditioned. "After living the long months and years under the Germans," she explained, 'You dreamed what would happen if you ever got out. You swore you would never com- plain about anything again." Audrey was caught in The Neth- erlands during the invasion of 1940. Her life during those years was a story of fear and privation. But the worst came during the seven months between the battle of Arnhem and liberation in 1945. "MERELY EXISTED" "Arnhem was evacuated after the battle," she recounted, 'but we lived just on the outskirts. Our presence there was tolerated by the Germans, but just barely so. For seven months, we had no light, no heat, no water. We had no food, because :Il the shops Jere closed. We ate what, we could in . "During the day we merely ex- isted. At night' our only diversion was gathering around the fire. That was the only light we had-- whatever wood we could find nearby. "We couldn't talk about the day's THE STARS SAY By ESTRELLITA FOR TOMORROW Try to get some relaxation this day. Put worries and problems aside and concentrate on the plea- sant aspects of your life. You have no cause for pessimism now. Con- genial companionship can be men- tally stimulating, so why not go out of your way to entertain a bit or otherwise show hospitality to loved ones? The evening hours are excellent for creative interests so you should find great pleasure in hobbies which require imagination and skill, or in cultural and artistic pursuits. Caution is advised n handling chemicals, electrical or mechanical equipment. FOR THE BIRTHDAY If tomorrow is your birthday, the months ahead should find you in excellent poston to forge ahead since your horoscope promises not only excellent opportunities for ex- pansion, but the hearty encourage- ment and support of persons in a position to help you. Sound judge- ment and meticulous attention to detail will be Toquired in your ef- fort to get ahead but since these characteristics are inherent in your nature, you should have no dif- ficulties whatsoever. Romance, domestic affairs and travel are all under most benefic: ent aspects during most of 1954 so that, all in all, you should find the year ahead a most satisfactory and rewarding one. A child born on this day will be energetic, aggressive and courag- eous in later life. THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW The headway you make this day can well be the basis for future advancement and promotion, so keep on your toes and seize every opportunity presented--even if it means taking on new responsibil- ities. Set an example of poise and self-assurance for those who may be observing the attitude with which you work. Mary Haworth counsels through her column, not by mail or per- sonal interview.

We entertained each other, and it 'helped carry our minds away from the horrible life we were leading. We could do it, too; we lived in another world during those nights around the fire." Audrey admitted that if she had not been through such an experi- ence, she might never have be- come an actress. "I had to learn to invent, to interpolate," she ex- lained. "I had to create a make- elieve world." It's a long way from the brutality of a Nazi occupation to the glitter of Hollywood, but that's where life has taken Audrey. She is making her first picture in Hollywood. It's called "Sabrina Fair' and she has such sterling suitors as Humphrey Bogart and William Holden seek- ing her hand. That shows you what Paramount thinks of its new girl. GIFTS DIVINE! By ALICE BROOKS EASIEST stitches (mainly quick, cross - stitch and outline) make the prettiest designs ever!
