In case you've never thought of *ny concrete and definits way of taking stock of yourself, let me give you an example.

A lady whom averyone admires -Lynn Fontanne, a self-made beauty if there evar was one once said: "Every so often I stand boforo my mirror and say to myself, 'Now. old girl, what's wrong with you?. Are you getting a bit fat, ch? is your head craning forward? Are your lips turning down? Are you acquiring a frown, a wrinkle, a smirk, a 18 hollow or a lump anywhere? your powder, rouge and lipstick still in barmony with your com- plexion? Let me see you walk, let me so you when you think I'm not with looking... Yes, my dear,

that browner akin, you're going to have to wear a darker shade of powder. That calls for new rouge and lipstick too. You're going to have to wear different colours, and you might try a new way of doing your hair. Your, face in fuller than it used to be, that incens you'll have to apply your rouge differently.""

If one of the first ladies of the stage requires this kind of over- hauling every so often-draw your awn conclusions.

WHY DO YOU FALL?

STRANGE ANGLES

B I lay on my back in bottom- less snow with 8ft. of hickory skla clamped on to my Frankenstein feet and wondering where those St. Bernard dogs are, the gentle voice of my schnee dominle sald: "Gentleman, zat is not nice. Why do you fall?"

"You have your hills at such strange angles," I said. "Besides, I added, "I think I am an avalanche. Don't you know that at freezing point newly fallen anow is able to avalanche on slopes of 22 de- Kreek?"

The Chinese Government, buoy fighting Chinese Communists in a half dozen provinces, has not thus far reciprocaled the interest, al- though individual artists and scholars in China ure shouldering the task of improving such under- standing.

Mr. Mei Lan-fang, the, Inter- nationally famous Chinese actor and female impersonator, went to Soviet Russia recently as the guest of the Soylet Government, which chartered ship expressly for the purpose of bringing Mr. Mel and his entourage to Vladivostok, where they were to proceed by the Siber- inn Eastern Railway to Moscow and present a series of perform- ances there.

Mr. Mei told the United Press that following his stay in Moscow he would probably visit Germany. England, France and Italy.

In addition, the Soviet Govern- ment has invited Miss Butterfly Wu, celebrated Chinese film actress, to attend the forthcoming Inter- national Film Exhibition In Mos- cow. Miss Wu, who is the com- bined Greta Garbo, Mary Pickford, Ellian Harvey, Janet Gaynor and Lilian Gish of Chinene filmdom, has accepted the invitation.

The Soviet Government during the past year has been the host to several other important artists and intellectuals,
