As We Live Poor Sportsmanship Means Unpopularity There is nothing that contrib utes more to Success in life and Dersonal hanoiness than good sportsmanship. 7 U ILn Dr. Huilock On the other hand, nothing makes a per son more thor oughly dislik ed than being a poor sport. Trie poor sport is con stantly com plain ing. If things go wrong, it is always "John's fault," never his. He sulks easily, believing that peo ple do or say things deliberately to hurt him. Good sports are made, not born. Sportsmanship is learned just as other personality traits are. Children must be taught to take setbacks with good grace, If the matter is left to chance a child is more likely to grow up to be a poor sport than a good one, because sulking and making a scene are' easier and give more satisfaction at ,' the moment. A poor sport can become a good one, but it will take more effort on his part than if he had gotten off to the right, start. Here are some suggestions for those who would like to im prove this aspect of their per - sonalities. No One Likes Complainer 1. Stop complaining. No one likes a complainer, and it in creases your own unhappiness by focussing your attention on things you do not like. Instead, try to discover whether you are to blame for the things you complain about. Then change what can be changed and accept philosophically what cannot. 2. Learn to give and take. A good sport recognizes that other people have rights, too, and is willing to go along with them provided he is given his fair share. 3. Remember that all people have some failures. Don t ex pect to be the exception to the rule. Instead of g e 1 1 i n g de pressed and blaming others when you fail, analyze your failure to see where you. made the mistake and resolve not to let it happen again. LETTERS FROM READERS Daily Recreation: 'To do good work, should a person have soma recreation e r r y day? What is the best type of recrea tion? (A) An efficient person never tries to keep his nose to the grindstone constantly. He knows that if he does he will "get stale" and do work inferior to bis ability. Whether he needs daily recreation is an individual matter. Some people prefer; to take part of a day away from their work several times a week. The thing that "re-creates" you is the thing you enjoy doing. This may be sports, 'reading, playing cards, gardening, or any ene of a thousand activities. Home Upsets: "When one of the children gels sick, my wife gets so upset that the whole home atmosphere is one of deep gloom. I tell her that children's illnesses are not serious and to take them more casually." (A) You are wrong in saying that children's illnesses are not serious. Sometimes - r t h e y ar e very serious and leave lasting effects. However, there is no reason to become upset unless the illness is diagnosed by the doctor as serious. " When your By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D. children are ill, it would be good for your wife's morale to call in the doctor and get his opinion. This will go a long way toward curbing gloomy imagi nings. House-Bound: "My mother, 82, lives with us. I insist that she stay indoors during the win ter lo avoid catching cold or slipping and breaking a bone. She complains that I am lo pro tective. Am I? (A) Winter is a treacherous season for old people. How much they should go out de pends partly upon their health, partly upon the weather condi tions, and partly upon what they are accustomed to doing. Rea sonable caution is certainly ad visable for old people during the winter s e a s o n. However, overcaution makes an old per son unhappy, and this is worse than taking a few chances.

MAR.21 i?5-76-77V& Sunday, February 20, 1953 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUWE WIWE Waistline and Neckline Show Spring Style Changes "Feminine Fifties" that's what noted cotton fabric design er Hope Skillman calls this fash ion era. In recent showings of smart new fashions for spring, the reason- is apparent. Gentle, elon gated outlines; dropped waists; modestly high necklines; end long torsos put the accent on feminity. Sun-and-fun dresses mirror these changes most obviously, with long torso treatments em phasized by stitching or, trim ming and with looser, unadorn ed bodices or throat-hugging necklines often pointed up by big bow ties. , Designer Claire McCardell combines the lowered waistline and the high-tie neckline in a gay dress of sunny satin striped cotton in tones of yellow and green. . . . Sheath dresses are important in the sportswear picture for cruise ana resort wear. Many of these are to be worn unbelt ed with just a hint of a waist line. One design by Tina Leser is done in a cotton plaid that mixes brown, gold, moss green, pink and blue in a halter-topped sheath with matching jack et.' . Separates have an all-in-one look. For example, Nelly de Grab has fashioned a. pleated skirt, sleeveless blouse, and loose cardigan jacket all from Hope Skillman's sky blue cot ton. She trims it with touches of sky blue cotton satin. . Overblouses take precedence over . the tuck-ins this season. They are paired with skirts, shorts, pants, and even swim wear. Some are middy-style and flapperish; others are molded body. Designer Jean Mersel of Nan Westley comes up with a long, fitted overblouse in ombre striped cotton with a sheath skirt and cardigan jacket of cot ton ottoman. - s Fitted Swim Suits ' c , Cotton ottoman, given a crease-resistant finish, is a pop ular sportswear material. Pem Squires uses this cotton in flam ing red for abbreviated shorts. Miller-Berliner uses the same cotton in sparkling - sapphire blue for trim Bermuda shorts, while Tina Lesser selects the ottoman in lemon yellow for calf-length matador pants. Swim suits by many design ers have been narrowed down to fit the figure like a "second skin." Woven cotton is a favo rite for these suits. Caltex of California uses Skillman's con fetti plaid cotton in a rainbow cf pastel shades for a halter suit. Its entire back is . shirred and elasticized. Some designers still prefer the figure-concealing dressmaker swim suit and give them a fresh look this 1 year. r-Brigance intro duces "culotte" swim ' suits fit ted with pleated pants cut bill owy and full to look like skirts.
