The -Do-It,

By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Afho Occupies a Unique Position in
the Writing World as an Author
ity on the Problems of Girls.
Are you the "do it yourself type
f person or do you expect some
ne to accomplish most of your liv
ng for you? '
"None but myself shall I meet on
he highway of fate," wrote a poct
ihilosopher with great wisdom and
ruth.
Most of us blame our failures on
ur ancestors, environment, ill-luck,
aithless friends, digestion, stars, ten-
ier-heartedness. super-honesty, weak j
lings on aiiyinmg except our own
ack of gumption. . I
N'o one was ever bom' with a fine. :
,turdy character all ready for use. !
Character has to be developed. And
lothing serves better for this than
lardships. Wrestling with , haid
ihips may ' not be comfortable and
lelightful and altogether inspiring,
jut it has a power for building en
trance and grit that no amount of
rolling around jn limousines and
'ipping orange frappes up and down
the map of fair weafher has ever
been known to produce.
I never knew a great success who
ladn't a battle behind him. A hic
:essful playwright once told mcj
that he thought it took at least 12,
vears of failure t build a successful
playwright. !
Sometimes. I ' think ft takes at
least 12 years of failure to build a'
nuccessful anything. Starting out with
but mediocre talents for racing, the
tortoise.of olden fable heat the finely
equipped hare. Plugging , did it.
Plugging away seems to do about
anything on which the. plugger is
bent. .
rOf course no one ever becani-the
world s greatest tenor by just hav
ing me uesire plus a tine equipment
hs a carpenter. ,But some folks es
tablish a definite' relationship be
tween their ambitions and their abili
ties. : ' ' ',. - -'.
It takes work to build a house.
Worlc and planning and figuring back
of that. lt takes about the same
things to build an individual. Given
a little ability, a sense of .direction
about the best of his talents and the
willingness to labor lovingly and
long for their 'development, almost
anyone can get anywhere.
Life's an endurance test. It seems
to consist largely pf getting knooked
down and picking yourself up again.
The failures are the folks who
having been knocked down once or a
hundred times stay down.
.No one knows at what particular
moment success is just around the
corner.. . Everyone has seen this
proven in the lite of some one he
knows Failure after failure per
haps even .the, weakness and the dis
couragement that precede quitting
fine more spurt one more dogged
effort and then achievement.
There is enough of the gambler in
most of us about the trivialities and
in the sense oP taking risks of all
. sorts. But just when the gambling
spirit, is needed and one mofe bout
with Jife might mean victory, we
ciuit. Vrhere is no more terrible and
unnecessary perhaps, even terrible
'ecause unnecessary tragedy than

Preparations for
- Women Voters'
. Convention
Gay in blue and buff, the chosen
colors of the National League of
Women Voters, Cleveland, 0., will
welcome the league when their sec
ond annual convention opens April
11. And this color scheme will be
repeated in, all the decorations at the
hotels, on the badges and fluttering
from automobiles during the week's
stay of the delegates. ..
The city has just recently held
conventions of the National Y. W.
C. A. and the State Federation of
Women's Clubs, so is experienced taking which cannot be permitted to
in entertaining and caring for. big i suftVr. n nutter what may happen
crowds. The Statler hotel has been
chosen as the league headquarters.
The Cleveland League of Women
Voters will act as hostess and Mrs.
Walter B. Laffer has been chosen
chairman of the convention commit
tee. With real business efficiency,
subcommittees have been made to
look after the arrangements of the
convention and care tor the comfort
and entertainment of the 1,200 vis
itors who are expected.
Miss Belle Sherwin, chairman' of
the Cleveland League of Women
Voters, has issued instructions to the
league to-to arrange all work that
"even in a case of murder there shall
he no hitch in arrangements even
for an hour," for "this is an undcr-
to any one person
The convention will be a busy one,
with conferences scheduled whenever
regular sessions will permit. De
spite this, however, the city's hospi
tality will be shown in various ways.
The mass meeting of the league will
be held in Masonichall, a'reception
will be given in Cleveland's beauti
ful new art museum and there will
be an afternoon drive which will per
mit the delegates to see the university
district and some of the city's beau
tiful parks.
Lack of lime makes trouble with
the teeth. A quart of milk supplies
as much lime as 28 pounds of beef,
23 pounds of potatoes or 9 pounds of
white bread.
SO many, many requeue 1 have
come in the last week for horo
scopes for the months of Febru
ary and, March. I suppose the
famous birthdays must revive an
interest in the influence of 'stars.
As you know, the signs which arc
supposed to -govern birth - dates do
not begin with the ijfst day of the
month and end with the last.
Aquarius is the sign governing the
period from January 21 to February
19. From February 20 to March 21
the sign Pisces rules.
Pisces people are the students of
the race. Nothing is treated super
ficially by Ihcm. They want to get
at the root of things, which explains
their habit of questioning everything
and always wanting to know the
reason for things.
No occasion is too insignificant
for them to get information from.
Tbey are always alert in a quiet,
orderly way to learn whatever they
can of interest; They are naturally
endowed with a capacity for thought,
industry, common sense," and a per
severance above the average. :
They are logical and positive in
their opinions, and, while they are
kind hearted, affable, and apparently
submissive and yielding, they are
vastly determined', in the accomplish
ment , of their' plans, which are the
result always of a long and careful
deliberation,
In the fulfilment a duty or a
promise they are equally determined.
Their logical minds demand a
reason for their personal actions. On
account Qf this trait they are most
skeptical about accepting a new
religious belief; in fact, they have
many materialistic tendencies to
overcome. . t
If they are possessed of intellectual
ability', they frequently become ex
perts on those subjects to which they
turn their attention. If, however,
circumstances have cast their lot in
a low channel, they are apt, to be
gross and materialistic , in. their
the verge of succees if they only
knew if they'd only go on trying.
Nothing in the line of outside in
fluence can. settle finally the ques
tion of achievement. Influence may
open doors. It won't keep the un
worthy inside the halls of fame. To
succeed is to. produce something
worth while, something that's want
ed. And to do that requires under
standing of yourself and of other
folks. " .
thoughts and habits, and lack intel
lectual aspirations.
They have strong ideas of justice.
They are conscientious, anxious to i
earn what they possess, and they
dread to be dependent upon others.
They are liable to self-censure and
despondency. They have good manu
facturingability and belong to the
manufacturing sphere of life They
like to study out ' little problems in
mechanics and engineering, and have
an inventive turn of mind. They
are sympathetic and philanthropic,
anxious about providing for the fu
ture, , and at times even penurious.
They are nervous and exacting in all
things and Yather inclined to be se
vere and fault-finding in business .:nd
domestic life. - ..
They- are usually distinguished by
their pale complexions, fine, and .en
sitive skin, and full round forehead.
They are sensitive to surroundings
and to changes in the weather.
Sympathetic friends are those born
between June 22 and July 22 and be
tween October .24 and November 22.
The birthstone is the bloodstone.
