Marv Ihiwoitli TFoziaii Says It's No Fu To Be Admired For Figure Superstition About Knives Discussed Dear Mrs. Post: I was given a shower the fther evening and one of the presents I received was a set of knives. I have told that when ore receives su-Mi a present it is necessary to give a coin to the person who gave it, otherwise it will break friendship.

Will you please tell me what you think about this and if I should send a coin to the giver? Answer: This is a superstitious practice which certainly should not be taken seriously. If you want to send a coin, it would be entirely permissible to do so and explain why you are sending it. Scientists believe people hav lived in Latvia since 3,000 B.C. as DKAR MARY HAWORTH: May I reply to your recent article about a young housewife who is developing a terrific inferiority complex because flat-chested and she notices that her husband admires large bosomed photographic art. Believe me, she doesn't know anything about complexes caused by wrong bustlincs; and I don't mean undersized.

I have a 39-inch bust, 26-inch waist and 37-inch hips: and I am just as sick of this "bust worship" era as are all the rest of the women in the world. that the literary fad in looks seldom lasts longer than a generation, before an emphatic change is launched. I think it is fair to say that the current cult of the super-size bosom is a literary fad if, indeed, our fiction fare nowadays can be called literature, In the 1920s, it was the Hemingway heroines and cartoonist John Heid flapper-figures who glamorized the flatfronted female, as I remember. Your forthright commentary is bound to buck up the less buxom ladies, by teaching them why they have cause to thank their lucky ARROZ A LA PRIMAVERA, a Spanish specialty, includes shrimp, fish, asparagus, peas and meat in a deliriously flavored rice.

Dear Mrs. Post: When a bride is wearing ordinary day clothes and not a wedding dress and veil, is it in good taste for her to hove a procession up through the church and out again? Answer: If the church" is very small, the wedding group would properly walk up the aisle. But if the church is very large and its emptiness therefore very conspicuous, it would certainly be better to enter from the chancel. The bride would, of course, enter on the arm of her father or whoever is to give her away.

But if there are no more than very few persons present, she and the bridegroom might possibly walk M. H.

Desegregation Victories and Failures of Citizens' Councils! In this week's Saturday Evening Post, famous reporter John Bartlow Martin corrals the head men of the Citizens' Councils to dig out the real Btnry behind such explosive items as: the feud between Council men Sam Engelhardt and gun-toting Ace Carter and what effects it could have on the whole segregation movement.

Sizes are scaled to the "average" figure; and a size-13 is right for me, except in the bust, which is much too skimpy.

So mostly I have to buy a size-18, and then take in the sack-line waist and hips. Also there is the problem of bathing suits; a one-ipiece garment is quite impossible. And under anything and everything (even a night-dress we must wear a stout brassiere without which we are just sloppy looking. Moreover, when a man casts an admiring glance our way, in this bust-conscious era, we never know what he admires; or do we? A rather crude example occurred last summer, when a man acquaintance remarked on my short haircut. 1 said that I had worn my hair short for two years, whereupon he replied (with joking emphasis) that he'd not seen my hair-do before.

You can imagine how this kind of thing makes us feel. We want to be admired for ourselves our mind, our soul not because we happen to bo over-endowed with a curve that is no tribute to us.

On the contrary, just one vote has had a decided effect on the history of our country.

For example: 1. Thomas Jefferson and John Quiney Adams were elected Presidents of the United States by "just one vote" in the Electoral College. 2. Rutherford B. Hayes was elected President by one vote.

When his election was contested, he won again by one vote in an electoral commission. The Congressman from Indiana who cast the deciding ballot had been sent to Congress by a margin of just one vote. And that deciding vote for Congressman was cast by a seriously ill man who had insisted on being carried to the polls. 3. One vote in the House of Representatives decided the passage of the Draft Act of World War II.

Show a conscientious interest in voting, especially in primaries. God has delegated you to play at least a small part in applying His truth and justice to government. He expects you to do something to bring to earth the law and order of heaven. "But be ye doers of the word and not hearers only."
