New Year resolutions are a subject fairly well-worn, but this evening Mrs McCorquordale (who is better known to the public by her own name, Barbara Cartland, under which she wrote her novels 'Jig-Saw', 'Sawdust', and 'If the Tree is Saved') will introduce a new and more attractive theory. Her idea is largely to do good to others by doing good to oneself. Nothing is so depressing as a plain woman. It is possible, by making up one's own face, to confer a good deal more gladness in the New Year than by giving up smoking or getting up early in the morning. This comfortable doctrine should appeal to most people who listen to this evening's talk.
