YOUR BIRTHDAY

..BY STELLA

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 21-

HORN today, you have originality and individuality as your two outstanding characteristics. You are always embarking upon some now gimmick. Dreams, schemes and grandiose projects are all in your head and you come out with them if they wero quito as simple as ABC You don't understand why others don't think they are quite as ensy You like to plan the schemes but have olbers do the hurd work on them. And, nince you have a magnetic personality, you are usually able to and cohorts who will work along with you. Just make sure that all your ideas are sound, your aim for and squaro and your ideals always held high,

Actually, you are a reformer, at heart. But this can become a talent for just changing things around merely for the sake of activity, rather than an attempt make a move for the better. For one so taken up with giant schemes you worry a lot over details. Intrigued by the mysterious and the occult, you need to take care that you are not unduly influenced by omen's and "signs".

You are rather too fond of the good things of life and should take care of your diet. Good health is of the utmost importance to the carrying out of your plans Deware of expending your nervous onergy too freely, for when tired, you become frritable and an outburst of temper at the wrong moment can undo The most carefully-lold plans.
