A PAGE FOR WOMEN

Not Sacrifice

You probably will sigh and say

it is an old story when I warni business girls to hold on to their feminity and not let a war or their career rob them of their rightful heritage. The battle of the sexes has been raging ever since. Eve and: every man or woman who writes has taken it -for a theme at least once. But I am convinced that those who work outside the home can well. pause to consider how good a trump is feminine lovėliness.

During these days and years of keen competition we are likely to grow hard-which is the biggest mistake a woman can make. We who work must. vie with capable men and women, and some who. are not so capable but who are favoured. We must-stick up for our rights; we cannot let anyone step on us. That competition tends to make us bold and callous unless we watch out.

Use Your Heritage. So much can be gained by work- ing the feminine angle. By that I do not mean that we should flirt: with the boss. or pull a faint when things get tough. No indeed: If we are working we must be in- telligent and strong, but when situations arise which irritate us we should use our heritage: to gain our ends. Instead of losing our temper we should discuss the clrcumstances calmly and sensibly. And instead of acting tough we should be so gracious that those who are criticising or hurting us will slink. away in shame. It can be done.

Just because we do work which was once considered the work of men, we.need not be masculine. She who enters her place of business nicely groomed, pleasing- ly and appropriately dressed, and acts within its walls with, as much poise and tuct as she would use in a selectad social group, will gain her ends and win admiration all along the line She will have to be firm at times and dis- criminating, but she need never be rude, loud, sarcastic, hard- boiled or mean. And the type of woman in business who is likened to a female dog, usually ends; up. · on-the end of a limb with no per- son willing to come to her aid: It doesn't take long for both sexes to get her number, so to speak,
