No Sense in Loading
Up With Useless
Beauty Aids.
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

ny HAIAACAh ANDSA1s
TT Is not only . rS1ief to 80 camp
ing-away from It all-but camp
ing should bring strength back into
tired bodies and new beauty into hag-
gard faces. Drinking In the sunshine,
wearing loose clothing, opportunity for
outdoor exercise and sinpie food well
prepared are the essentials Of good
living, after all.
But campers should remember that
they sre campers only for 4 few weeks
year. The rest Of the time they live
an almost hothouse existence in
schools, homes or at business.
Too sudden exposure to sun, too
much exercise, too little care Of
grooming details, can 30 destroy the
aura of meticuloH grooming which
we like to have about us, that urge
all campers to prepare-in a most
civilized manner-for their retreat to
the native!
There is no sense in loading up
with . lot Of useless beauty aids. You
are trying to get away from just that
sort Of thing! But you must take
along with you enough equipment to
assure you Of cleanliness and protec-
ton while you are living close to
nature.
Let US assume that any girl will
have tucked IN her handbag her gen.
eral make-up-powder. lpstick and
rouge If she needs it. She then should
pack the following items:
A soap which will Ia ther in hard or
soft water.
A rich cold cream or cleansing
cream.
A sun protective oil-commercial
preparation or olive oil.
A good hAirbrush-use daily.
Hair tonic or olive oil-keep on
scalp.
Liquid soap shampoo Cuse rain
water).
Cuflers-or bobby pins for setting.
Miniature manicure set-complete.
Nail brush.
Use olive oil or cold cream.
Tooth brush and paste.
Powdered mouth-wash preparation.
Sunglasses.
Antiseptic-for cuts and blemishes.
Deodorant-only If you perspire ex-
cessively.
RaSoT or depilatory
You can see by this list that only
the essentials to healthy care Of the
body need be taken along. Let your
hair and your eyebrows grow. Take
as much sun as Is wise once you
anoint your skin. Keep your hair
covered while in the sun and always
keep your scalp fabricated Walk in
sandals or barefooted If there is no
danger Of cutting your feet or walk
ing into q poison vine! And above
all, forget your troubles and have q
glorious, carefree time! 81.

dresses and felt jackets In bright
colors to top of dark clothes. VEL
veteen is particularly popular for aft
ernoon wear. and we noticed . great
many dresses in this material shirred
high at the bust line in front and at
the waist in back. Incidentally, you'll
be seeing lot Of shirring and draped
effects this autumn, and they're very
fiattering.
COATS and costume suits are really
charming in variety of styles and
materials. For sport you can't beat
reversible coat lined with gabardine
for rainy weather, or, if you like. the
inevitable and always smart Harris
tweed which has held its rank for
years and will continue to do 80 for
many more. For dressier occasions
there are rough wool coats with skunk
sleeves and collar, processed lamb in
swagger styles with very square shoul-
ders and no collar; a simply cut coat
with no trimming, but set off by two
beautifully matched silver foxes-there
again your sophiStication. Silver foxes,
by the way, are being advocated for
college girls for gala occasions. Co.'S
tune suits feature two-piece man
tailored styles topped by short jackets
of kidskin.
For very formal wear-black again
to a great extent. Velvet, too. this
year, for practically all formal clothes
that were shown. The styles are real
ly lovelv-enormous billowing skirts.
tiny and very decollete bodices. short
little jackets, and bows, ruffes, and

is always popular, and one lovely gown

formal clothes are worn short, chunky
fur jackets.
Summing up the entire collection,
these points stand out: Skirts and
sweaters for campus wear; sophisticat-

TIPS, FOR SWINGSTERS.
There's something about such favor
ite jitterbug tunes as "Dipsy-doodle"
and Flat Foot F1oogie" that brings
out the carlnibal in many Of US. When
the band gets in the groove" we break
into a rash Of new steps and curious
movements, including free-wheeling.
We're as strong for dancing pleas
ure as you are, but it i becoming
painfully evident that lot Of the new
dances call for more space than the
average floor provides. When they
are attempted on small floor, usually
crowded. it's not dancing, but assault
and battery. .- ~.
Recently at large private party,
10 or II couples had. to leave the
floor when violent number sent
the jitterbugs present into wild motion,
bringing out more downright selfish
ness than swing.
This growing problem can be solved.
Here are few suggestions which may
be Of some help:
Try to arrange IN advance with
the orchestra to devote at least: ore
entire dance during the evening to
swing numbers. Have the leader
announce that this will be the litter
bugs opportunity to 60 to town. Or
have the big apple peelers and the
little peaches come early or stay late
for a special session of their own.
Remember that swing should never
be made an excuse for bad manners,
show consideration for the more con-
servative couples.
Organize q jitterbug night, when
those who like to give" can have
the floor all to thepselves.
If you decide to try the last sugees-
ton, let us know. We'd like to be
there swinging Annie Laurie through
the rye.

often do things together-get them
to hang on, too. Round them up for
g0pd times. Coax them out from
under fans and ice packs.
Your motto should be. Pun for all
and all for fun" And that means
getting into the swim at q nearby lake,
at the nearest pool or in ye olde SWIM
ming hole.
Swimming is one Of the many sports
maids and men can enjoy together in
big way. It isn't at all necessary to
be really good to have . swell time.
Just splash around q lot and then lie
in the sun, well fortified against sun
burn, getting q good tan.
We suggested staging q water car
niyal recently. All you need Is list
of events and somebody with leather
lungs = to act as announcer. Nov
city races will add to the fun.
Picnics in the park aren't new or
unusual, but they are certainly fun.
We know great he-man football
player who gets kick out Of eating
bits of sandwiches fed him by slightly
buttery feminine fingers. He and his
girl enjoy being alone-just eating,
looking at the scenery can old pine
tree, wilted grass and each other) and
being together. A picnic for two Is a
grand stimulant for 'romance|f it
ever needs a stimulant
IF YOU don't care for sandwiches
and ants, served al fresco. here are
more suggestions for further fun. None
of them are new, but they're all triple
tested good time providers:
Bicycle or auto rides under an
August moon. Supper around a camp
fire, songs and ghost stories. Canoe
trips on a nearby lake. A railroad or
bus overnight excursion to a nearby
city. A spur-of-the-moment party
after q rousing tennis match. Sat-
urday night informal dances at some
body's house. Treasure and scavenger
hunts. Nights spent at a carnival or
amusement park-with the girls
shrieking and having the time Of their
lives, while the boys act very masculine
and unmoved about it all.
Roller skating at nearby rink or on
a seldom-used section Of street pave
ment may make the biggest night in
August. 1t isn't necessary to spend
a lot of money to have q good time,
because it's not so much what you do
as how you do it. We've seen crowd
of college freshmen, with little more
than q dollar between Them make a

with the boys. I was waiting for him
with q curtain lecture. II he brought
an old friend home to dinner. served
him such large slice of cold shoulder
that he never returned.
IT criticized his family. his taste

him that every one had heard that

poor soul eat what he liked.
TN SHORT I assumed what I con-
sidered a wife's privilege to nag
and rule and find fault with her
husband and make him like It. It
never once occurred to me that I was
taking the surest and quickest way to
kill his love for me, and that no man
who had an inch OF backbone would
stand for such trea tment.
Then. suddenly, got my awaken
ing. My husband told me that he
had fallen in love with another woman
and wanted his freedom to marry her.
was appalled,. had never suspected
that he would resent my faultf1nding
and nagging and that 1t would lead to
this. Then realized that life without
him would be cinders, ashes and dust.
so begged him to give me another
chance. I told him that If in . year
I could not win back his love and
make him prefer me to the other
woman, that would fade out Of the
picture without making any trouble.
He agreed to it, for he no more
wanted to break up our home. clutter
up our business and family relations
and figure in a scandal than I did.
I rolled up my sleeves and started into
a vamping campaign that knew was
going to take all of the courage and
self-control and intelligence I had,
because it is q lot harder to blow hall
dead embers into a flame again than
it is to kindle fresh fire.
"RUT won in the end, and what
do you think my husband told
me? He said: I know now that deep,

love you, and that the only reason
I wandered away was because our
home had become place OF squabbles

out of me by your continual fault

conclusion, that gave me my lesson.
It taught me that If wife wants to

equatorial temperatures on tQe out
side the atmosphere of the fashion
show had all the earmarks Of the au-
tumn season.
With the opening of college just
around the corner. so to speak. the
audience, composed mostly of young
girls, exclaimed at and admired the
models shown. And they were we'll
worth the praise. College fashions
have reached, in our opinion, the
peak of smartness and good taste.
They are neither too casual nor too
ornate, and they have all the fancy
little accents that are part Of the
campus life, and yet they retain an
air of sophistication and poise that is
hard to duplicate. Gone are the
sloppy, ill-fftting skirts and sweaters.
Vanished the monStrosities that once
were characteristic of college clothes.
In their place have come charming,
well-fitted and exceedingly smart
styles that should rate the coed
among the worlds best-dressed women.
CKIRTS and sweaters still rate first
on the campus. There are the
luscious Angora sweaters with fuzz
fully an inch long. soft cashmere
blends, Jersey twin sets to be worn
over velveteen skirts, sweaters but
toned all the way down the back and
In the latest manner-thoSe buttoned
only at the neckline and hanging open
the rest of the way down. The skirts
are mainly pleated, many adorned
with tricky belts of rawhide or other
new fabrics, and loads of them are
in gay plaids. Jackets. too, are al
ways good. Suede jackets in bright
colors, short tweed ones in plaids or
solid colors to mix with your skirts:
long, fitted ones for the tall, slender
girl who likes her clothes to fit
snugly, and snort, chunky ones with
belted back for her shorter sister.
Important is the fact that all have
the squared shoulders that are so vital
this season-shoulders that make you
look like a football player in modi-
fed form and give you that V-man
fgure-no hips at all.
For your big dates, your weekend
visits, and your trips to town. you will
be very poised and sef-assured. Black
is playing gigantic part in the col
lege wardrobe. Perhaps more so than
ever this year, for We noticed that
while sport clothes run riot in the
color field, the dressier things are
mainly black-usua1ly lightened by
bright touches or white trimming. The
peasant influence Is everywhere-no-
ticeably mostly in tricky accents such
as bright embroidery down the front of
q black dress, three bright little Tyro-
lean flowers at the waist line in black;
felt flowers appliqued on suspender

As the New York millionairess whose hobby is the police force. Bea Lillie supplies the wine of comedy. Mary Carlisle is Bing's love interest in her role of the spoiled girl who wants to run away with gangster and is prevented from doing so by her crooning police-guard.
 A talented cast of comedy players includes Andy Devine. Laura Hope Crews, Frank Elliott and Bill Aus tin. Prominently figuring in the pro- duction are the amazing performing animals of the Central Park Zoo scenes and Louis Armstrong and his hot swing band.

 are to relieve welfare relief rolls of the considerable drain indicated for the rest of the year.
 Additionally, the city engineer forsees allotment of millions of dol- lars in PWA funds to this state and at the last meeting of the board of public works presented program for Waterbury which would call for expenditure, in total, of about $3,- 500,000, nearly half of this by the governmental agency, the PWA. MT Dunn would serve as city agent in this city-governnental program.
 Funds are available from the gen. eral improvement bonds for the paving projects outlined by Mir Root, and about $300,000 in sewer bonds are available for the city's share of the Mad River trunk line sewer. This latter project would be for the benefit of between 10000 and 30,000 residents of the city, 1t was estimated as the present trunk sewers out East Main street and along Hamilton avenue are now in- adequate, the city engineer re- marked, and residents of several districts are complaining.
 Representatives of the PWA have interviewed the city engineer on several occasions regarding possible Waterbury projects and resumption of 8 considerable enterprise in Con- necticut by this agency is antici- pated shortly, in line with the im- mense public works program of the national government.
 So far as salaries of MT. Dunn and MT. Loughlin are concerned, the city engineer remarked that tshe former is listed to received $55 weekly, less 10 per cent, and that MT. Loughlin is paid $54 less 10 per cent. The present free balance of the WPA fund at last report was about $63,00O, from which all SUD- plies and contractual services con- nected with the WPA projects are paid.
 While this is expended by the city, the WPA is furnishing severe: times the amount in wages and materials, at the rate of $7 for ma terials per man per month, or, on the basis of 1,200 WPA employees, $8,400 monthly for materials, plus the wages averaging $15 weekly, or $18,000 a month for four weeks.

 With Robert Taylor, Margaret Sullavan, Franchot Tone and Rob- ert Young filling the stellar assign ments, and with supporting cast comprising such fine performers as Guy Kibbee, Lionel Atwill, Henry Hull, Charley Grapewin and Monty Woolley, the pictures characters come wildly to life.
 Taylor, fresh from his recent suc- cess in "A Yank at Oxford" offers the most distinguished and heart- warming performance of his career as the young World War veteran faced with the necessity of begin- ming his life anew in an alien world Margaret Sullavan is superb as the girl who brings fresh hope to his life, and Tone and Young in simple, expressive portrayals finish off a quartet of brilliant acting jobs. | The Remarque story describes the
