SHE looks too pretty to be real in her two. piece bathing suit of fig. ured blue silk foulard. There's real fashion news in the halter neck bra top equipped with a "Venetian Blind" cord at center
 front to shirr 1t up.
 One is a knit wool maillot in a lovely soft shade. of aqua. An- other, of printed cotton, is very Gay Nineties. You know - the kind of thing fashion writers have been raving about. The third, in printed silk foulard, consists of shorts with pleats at the side and a bra-top halter with some kind of draw-string business in the center of it. She can tighten the string and make the halter nar- row as anything. And she does.
 Also for deck sports she has a swell striped linen halter that she wears with a white skirt. And there's 6 bolero jacket to match the skirt. Any day now we'll dis cover that she has an extra hal- ter and a pastel sweater or two to wear with the skirt.
 The first day we went ashore The Menace wore a blue and white print of rayon and cotton fabric which has lair condition ing" holes all over it, and nar- row-brimmed hat of grosgrain ribbon.
 For the next shore trip, she ap- peared in gold and brown silk print with a rather long basque bodice and a full, pleated skirt. Day before yesterday, she went up to the captains cocktail party in 8 two-piece, severely tailored little white lace number. I'd have saved this for informal dinner and dancing in Havana, but she obviously doesn't have to save anything for anything.
 So far, she's worn five different evening dresses. A black lace with scarlet chiffon sash and bow; cream -colored chiffon with a green linen bolero that matches a green linen dance dress which she wore another night; a printed silk with colorful, over tapping floral discs on blush pink back ground; a navy blue silk jersey dinner gown with huge pearl buttons down the shirtwaist front.
 Do you begin to see what I mean? If you do, better send a cable reminding me not to com init murder. After all, girls have been pushed overheard for a great deal less than being 60 alarmed right about everything-which is what The Menace is.
 However, the ships doctor is taking ME to the horse racing games today. Maybe that proves something.
 Love to you and mother,
 AGATHA.

 Regardless of her makeup and tha way she wears the rest of her clothes, the woman whose shoes and stockings aren't neat and trim just isn't perfectly groomed. Crooked seams. run-over heels, unbrushed suede or unpublished kidskin VIII spoil the appearance Of any ocner- wise smart costume.
 Gone are the days when every other woman had a perfect right uo say, T never can get stockings the right length or find sheer ones which will give fair service"
 Now, if you are diligent in your search, it's possible to Ind sheer stockings that will wear and wear and wear. That is, if you ask for the right size in the first place. And, of course, several of the hosiery manufacturers put out long, medium and short lengths in each shade they feature. By all means ask for a special length. If your stockings are too short, your garters Will stretch and pull and weaken the threads. If they're too long, they'll wrinkle easily.
 Naturally, it's c mistake to wear ultra sheer, one or two-thread stock ings to the office or on Q hike through the fields, or even on . strenuous shopping tour. Such fragile hose are for dancing and dress-up. Buy three-thread ones for ordinary, day in and day out wear, and four-thread types for golf. the country, riding and the like.
 Always remember to wash stock- ings immediately after each wear- ing. Don't wait until the next morning. If you want the stockings to wear well, wash them before go- ing to bed. New ones ought to be. rinsed in lukewarm water and ale lowed to dry thoroughly before be. ing, worn even once.
 Keeping toenails short and smooth and backs of heels free from cal- louses will add days to the life of your stockings. Putting them on correctly - that is, rolling them down, smoothing them over feet then rolling instead of pulling them upwards @ help, too.

into the lymphatic or drainage channels and through these chan nels they spread to other parts of the body. The competent physician is particularly careful in examining such Jumps to avoid this very pos- sibility.
 Another popular notion which is dangerous Is that such lump in the breast is not cancer unless 1t is painful. The truth is rather the contrary. That is, if lump is pain full at the beginning, the chances are it is benign in character and will require no treatment. But a lump which is discovered acciden- tally and is not painful is more likely to prove the beginning of cancer. Too often doctors hear this tragic exclamation: "Why, Doctor, I didn't think it could be serious, because it has never given me the slightest pain!"
 A lump in the breast which is freely movable is less likely to be cancerous than one which seems fixed or attached to skin, gland or rib.
 There are misguided folk who elect to put off examination of such Jumps by the physician, because they fear he might advise an opera ton. The truth is that the majority of such Jumps do not require treat ment of any kind, but if it happens that the lump is malignant, that is of cancerous nature, then the sooner 1t is surgically removed the better the chance of saving life, and this operation by a qualified surgeon is one of the safest known to modern surgery. Procrastination in seeking medical advice is there fore the most dangerous feature of such cases.
 In any such case, surely 1t is bet ter to give yourself the benefit of the doubt by having the assurance of your physician about the lump. We don't know whether worry is itself a predisposing factor of can- cer, but 1t may well be. To worry about such question rather than seek medical examination im- mediately the lump is noticed, be- speaks pretty low intelligence quotient. And the rosy promises or pretenses of charlatans who pur- port to have non-surgical cures for cancer are of precious little com- fort to the victim who finds, too late, that she is beyond the benefit of surgery.
 In cancer of the breast the out come is decided mainly by whether the patient goes to her physician early or late for examination.

A LUMP IN THE BREAST

q LUMP IN THE BREAST
 One foolish notion about Jumps in the breast is that they may be massaged away or caused to dis appear by rubbing in various medicaments. While the majority of such Jumps are not of serious nature, occasionally they are the beginning of dangerous growths. If the lump happens to be malignant cancerous, then rubbing or squeez- ing may break down the delicate wall that nature is trying to build up around the primary cancer cells to prevent spreadying of the growth. Massage forces some of the cells

On the diplomatic front the ap-
pointment of Capt. Fritz Wiede-

as consul general at San Francisco

Of1icial sources said the appoint
ment had no political significance
They said Capt. Wiedemann was
going to California ION his own
wish''-a reward for his services to
Germany.
Capt. Wiedemann will replace
Baron Manfred Won Killinger, who
was assigned to special duties in the
foreign Office. He had been recalled
in December to report on an ex-
plosion which rocked the Nazi
freighter Vancouver in Oakland
Estuary November 3.
Five of the crew were injured and
the freighter was beached. Won Kill

Capt. Wiedemann's assignment
surprised diplomatic quarters be-
cause he had acquired considerable
reputation as confidential aide to
Hitler, particularly on delicate dip
lomatic missions But responsible
quarters pooh -poohed suggestions OF
any deep political significance in his
assignment to the consular post or
that he was being sent primarily on
a propaganda mission.

Men who have completed their

labor service will be organized into

From the age of II until they are

"a moral obligation" to acquire the

preparation for the defense service
the decree said.
The badge, heretofore a purely
party honor, was given the status
OF military decoration.
