Incidentally the coloring eggs is not just a sentimental pastime, nor is it an activity of modern vintage. The ancient Persians who believed that the earth was hatched from an egg, colored eggs for this their New Year's festival. Originally they used the new colors to copy those that Spring brought forth. Centuries ago a popular color was red used by some in honor of the blood of Christ and by others to represent joy after the Lenten fast during which, in times past, eggs were not eaten.

The bunny's method of breaking into the Easter picture is still somewhat vague. It does back, however, to ancient Egypt where the word for hare also meant to open and may have been used as a symbol of the festival that opened the new year of life and hope. We have adopted the hares near relative the rabbit, possible because hares are scarce or perhaps because the confectioners who made the first sweet reproductions were rarely experts in natural history. LAST MINUTE GIFT ideas for a child's Easter are to be found in these soap novelties, the first of which is Harvey, the elusive bunny, hero of the Broadway success of the same name. He is sculptured in castile soap and is leaning against his favorite lamp post.

Before giving yourself a manicure, brush your nails with hot soapy water and a good nail brush.

Leave the gauze on for 15 or 20 minutes while you read or rest. The skin will soften surprisingly and dead, softened skin will roll off when cuticle remover is applied during the manicure.

If this is done two or three times a day, your cuticle will keep soft and loose.

Do not do chores unless wearling gloves. This will avoid tearling your cuticle or nails. When shaping the nails, do not file deeply at the corners. The nail must grip fingertip in order to remain strong and grow beautifully. Lovely gestures can be made only with lovely hands.

Glee Club singers don't need great solo voices, the maestro, stressed because the choral effects are gotten by a good blending of voices.

Weds Older Man Many Haworth's Mail -Harvests Grief DEAR MARY HAWORTHAlmost five years ago Jim and I met while he was stationed here. We went together for several months and became engaged before he was sent We were 21 at the time, had similar interests and seemed well suited.

After Jim left I went out a sionally. Toward the end of a year I met a very charming man 10 years my Mary Haworth senior, also in the army. I was attracted by him at first and continued to see him often. Almost at once he wanted me to break my engagement. Jim replied to the news with a heartrending letter.

I was quite upset but made up my mind to do my best as Tom's wife and consoled myself that marriage had freed me from what I considered unreasonable restrictions imposed by my parents. The marriage was a failure almost from the start. Tom became restless and overbearing and finally I discovered he was being untrue to me. Parente Frown On Her Then he was sent overseas for a year and, a at his request, returned to my parents his absence. He wrote that he would be different on his return; and while felt little enthusiasm, I resolved to give him another try.

Before his return, however, Jim was sent back to this country and stationed nearby. I very much wanted to see him, yet hated to face him. He paid us several visits, all very enjoyable, and there were definite indications that he was still interested, although were never alone together. "He was shortly transferred to another station and Tom returned. d.

He hadn't changed. In a very short time he began a new affair. Consequently we separated and I am due for a divorce hearing soon. I have heard indirectly that Jim is out of the service, at his parents' home, and I would like to write him, but I hesitateknowing how they feel about me. Also, the fact that I am about to be a divorcee would simply harden their feelings if tried to write him.

L. S. First Love Fine DEAR L. Jim's behavior far seems remarkably fine. so He was hard hit by your fickle performance and said so, with an intensity that wrung your heart.

Yet he didn't marry on the rebound for counterfeit conIsolation or as a counter thrust, as a highstrung weakling might have done. On his return to this country, he had the grace of character to accept your parents' bid for renewal of friendship, and the poise- in a situation which must have been by all odds most difficult for him- to put all of you at ease and make his visits truly enjoyable. Certainly he would not have bothered to make more than one visit if he weren't still significantly interested in you. Entitled to Protection If he doesn't know you are being divorced, he might enter philosophically into an early engagement with almost any nice congenial girl in his immediate environment. For Jim's protection, to spare him another possible harvest of dismay growing out of your floundering, he should be informed of current developments in your life.

Since your parents are his friends, perhaps your father would write him to say. in effect, "Lucy and Tom are being divorced. The case should be settled by May. Lucy wants you to know, this way, from us, and not by the grapevine route. But.

in circumstances, legal and otherwise, she doesn't feel free to write you herself, of course, Yours." etc. Until you are divorced, there is no other advice I can give you. M. H. BUY U.
