People you think you know best may be the very ones to fool you most. Why, you may ask, are people so unpredictable? The answer is that behavior depends upon so many different factors it would be impossible for anyone to krow all of them. It is question able whether the person himself is actually able to predict his own behavior at all times. Strong Influence How he feels at the moment will have a strong influence on his behavior. If he is tired, sleepy, not feeling well, his be havi9r will be different than if his physical condition were more favorable. Then there is the mat ter of smoldering emotions. If something goes wrong, he may supress his anger but it will not be dead. On the contrary, : f Medford Res. 2-8174 I Beautiful ly WO J jt-. It Has Dozens of Uses!

Some stimu late him to one type of behavior, while others have just the re verse effect. What he has been doing in the immediate past whether it be working, sleeping, or having a good time will leave its mark on his mood, and this will determine his approach to the next activity. All in all, it is apparent that people are un predictable creatures and no one can ever say just what they will do next. LETTERS FROM READERS Accident-prone: "Are some people just unlucky in thai they have all the accidents or is there something the matter with them?" Questioning (A) Studies of accidents have revealed that some people have more than others and for the most part, there is a personality pattern characteristic of the accident-prone person. Such a per- ; son is apt to be headstrong, im : petuous, easily aroused emotion : ally and generally careless about i his appearance and possessions. This pattern contrasts strongly with that of the person who has few accidents and who is cau tious and conservative. In gen eral, this leads to the conclu sion that the person most likely to have accidents is the one who lacks caution and has a tendency to be impetuous and emotional. Considered queer ': Is a girl likely to get a reputation of being 'queer' if she. prefers her studies and aihle'ics to -boys and dates? My daughter isnot interested in boys and she tells me everyone thinks she is 'queer.' Is this just her imagination?" Worried Moth er. . ' (A) A girl who is different is likely to be considered "queer just as iS a boy who does not follow the pattern of other boys However, this is not likely to be a permanent reputation, though it may disturb your daughter at the moment. Don't try to force her to have dates until she wants to have them. If you do, you will indirectly tell her that you, too, think she is "queer." Disillusionment: Should a mother tell her daughter of all the hard work and sacrifices connected with marriage, or will this disillusion her?"

Tracy, one of the s c r e e n's most durable stars, recently ended his MGM contract after Aline Mosby 20 years of some memorable movies, and is moving on to pick his own roles, beginning with "The Mountain" at Paramount. Most of the top Hollywood luminaries still are the middle- aged citizens, grinned Tracy, and "right now the studios are becoming a little desperate for actors." "Cagney, Gable, Bogart, Coop er, Pat O'Brien, Bing all the same age," the rugged Tracy said. "Not too many young actors. Brando, that poor Jimmy Dean.. Bog Wagner, in this picture, is vey good. But Paramount tells me they have scripts all over the lot, ready to go, that they can't cast. also do not want her to live in a daydream world from which she will emerge with bitterness and cynicism when she disrnvers that marriage is not all a bed of roses. Try to give her a realistic picture of marriage without disillusion ing her. (COPYRIGHT 1955. GENERAL FEATURES CORP.)
