WHAT IS CHARM?
IT’S PERSONALITY THAT TELLS By PEGGY O’NEILL It is seldom the most beautiful or •ichly-dressed woman at a party who is the centre of attraction. Which is rather surprising! She should have such a big advantage over all the rest. But the woman who counts is the one who has personality, for personality outweighs prettiness; it is so much rarer. You hear people say “That girl has something of an air about her." It is indefinable —a sort of self-assurance of which she isn’t exactly unconscious. You wouldn’t pass her by unnoticed, yet you wouldn’t know why you had looked twice, and it’s all rather fascinating. No matter what she says or does, everyone smiles approval. This gift is not the possession of a favoured few. It is, indeed, merely an expression of self —the easiest thing in the world, since we are all chieflv interested in ourselves. It is gained partly by dressing neatly, comfortably and simply; partly by being easy and natural. Charm of manner comes by allowing all the good sides of your personality to develop naturally and fully, by saying what you honestly think, and bv doing what seems the best and simplest thing to do. In a few words —by bring - out the you of you.
