Merlin Douglass of Madison and Tom Carlton of Hancock were Friday callers at the W. A.

Lish home. The Melvin Bartlett family attended a party in Coloma Saturday Before you start feeling sorry for the hard working husband whose wife drags him away from his easy chair several evenings a week to dance at the country club i with the neigh bors, listen to what a man who deals in personality has to say. "It is more important for health, happiness and an ideal personality to learn to play than to read constantly, listen to the radio, and go to the movies." That is Dr. Henry Link talking, creator of the P.Q. "Personality Quotient," a test of personality, and author of the new book, "The Rediscovery of Man." The book and all of Dr.

Link's ideas when you talk with him, are an about face from the personality books that claim you can learn how to get along- with people by following a formula. Dr. Link contends, and with good proof, that the best way to learn to get along with people is to play with them. In the excitement of a tennis game or the exuberance of cutting a figure on the ice, all self-consciousness is forgotten, and a person is completely himself. If you were to give Dr.

Link a list of your activities he would tell you that the ones that demand physical exertion will do more for your personality than the others. "Dancing is splendid," he says. "Perhaps the best personality-developer of all. Tennis and golf and hand-ball are excellent." "But even bridge or any other sit-down game is far better for the development of a healthy, strong personality than getting all your fun from being a looker-on or reading books." So don't feel sorry for the man whose wife insists on his getting out a few nights a week and playing with friends. He's less likely to go stale and more apt to go ahead than the man whose every single leisure hour is spent "getting away from it all."
