Movie Classic (Mar-Aug 1936)

self-satisfied ! (Commandment Six.) ("\N THE other hand, a self-made ^Hbeauty contributes the verve of taut energies, and the agility of her brain gives her a far more interesting expression than the blank stare of the here-Iam-come-and-take-me beauty. Don't ever feel that shortage of natural beauty will make you hopelessly unattractive. Just as long as you are anxious to improve, and determined to develop yourself to the utmost, you have every right to expect that people will be attracted to you by your personality. (Commandment Number Seven : Don't be too indifferent to learn !) The beauty who is afraid to feel honest emotions is like a bird that fears to use its voice or a bud that never opens. (Commandment Number Eight: Don't be afraid to feel emotion!) Beauty is a promise — no more and no less. It attracts and arrests ; but, without more, it cannot hold. Women should not be afraid of facial lines. By this, I don't mean seams and disfiguring creases, but those that print character on a face. Personality does that. As Galsworthy, in his Flowering Wilderness, said: "One's eyes are what one is; one's mouth what one becomes." What you must guard against are not so much your hopes and aspirations, your disillusionments and disappointments, as your triumphs and successes ! Nothing can spoil you so quickly or so irreparably as too sudden and complete admiration, too flattering and insincere praise. (Commandment Number Nine: Don't let life spoil you!) TF I were a young woman with the A whole world before me, I would make up my mind precisely on what to "buy" with my personality. A career? A husband, a home and children? Or the permanent role of butterfly and jolly good fellow? I couldn't have them all. I wouldn't fool myself or let anyone else fool me into thinking that I could. Knowing that beauty never lasts, I would think of charm as the most formidable barrier to those things that we fear will overtake us during middle-age. And last, but most important of all, I would never "disguise" my personality, any more than I would mask my face. (The Tenth Commandment: Don't disguise your personality!) I would be essentially true to myself and what I wished to stand for. I would be as willing to use every personality aid at my command as to use cosmetics and beauty aids to enhance my looks. For, in every nature, there is some essence of charm which only needs accentuating. By dramatizing this charm in accord with the vision I have seen in my mind's eye, I have given the world what it has pleased to call beauties ! To you I say that each life, each adventure is a personal "Crusade." Therefore, through the power of your personality, direct your own spectacle so that you will become the top — the heroine of your own group !
