with their slim figures short skirts beautifully cottlured hair and makeup they look more like mothers or from the back view ought even pass tor young girls but if some day you can get a young grand mother of say sixty or sixtyfive to alt down with you for a couple ofhours and tell you of the world as she knew it when she was a girl you will rea lise that in spite of her youthful appearance she was brought up in tlmeli vastly different from those of 1940 when orapdma was eighteen and did her hair up for the ilrst time she may have been a jittertug but she didnt know it she had nev er tfdden

carefully arranged waves and curls her makeup repaired at all times and her nails gaily polished she must keep her home immaculate take her daily exercise go to the right pla ces entertain the right people in the right way do her stint of war work and still find time to read all the new books it ten t enough that she cultivate her mind and keep her body youthful she must also cultivate cbann poise and personality if she is to be a really successful modern grandmother yes she does get a chance once a day to relax on a super de luxe spring mattress but considering the hard life she leads surely a little self indulgence is her due canadian tars want magazines thee is a pressing need lor more magazines and books tor the men of the royal navy the royal canadian navy and the merchant
