shops. The things we saw not only
recalled memories of our childhood
but set us to wondering why each
mode must be so completely carried
out.
Lingerie, as the girl in charge
explains 1t, has gone sissy-but de-
lightfully so. Never have we seen
so many rows of fine lace, such a
quantity of little bows, and such
an array of purely feminine gar
ments. In way, OF course, this Is
welcome change. Surely the
manufacturers of lingerie are jump
ing up and down and clapplng
their hands in glee, for it is obvious
that these new and very delicate
garments will not have one-half
the durability of the tailored wear
forever models to which we have
grown so attached in past years.
1t stands to reason that these fussy
models will have to be replaced
more often than the unadorned,
simply cut ones. but the demand for
childish fashions has, inspired us
to little girl" lingerie-and here
1t is.
Pastel Slips
Are Dainty.
The new slips destined for spring
wear are completely reminiscent OF
those we used to wear under our
Sunday-g -to-meeting dresses. The
favored colors are pale blue, white,
tea rose and pink. incidentally,
honset-to-goodness pink is more
popular this season than at any
time in the past few years. Women
are veering away from tea rose,
finding that it has yellow cast that
is not always f1attering, but the
other pastel shades are very much
in demand. Some of the new models
have squared necks, very highly
trimmed in lace, and there is large
quantity of lace used at the hem.
Tiny ribbon bows are often placed
at the bottom of the skirt, and bead
ing-you remember that, surely-is
to be seen in many, many styles.
Usually the beading, tiny rib
bon pulled through the material, is
of contrasting color to the slip
and tied in front with a baby bow.
Wide lace straps, about l inch,
are used on any number of new
styles and they are invaluable for
hiding any other straps beneath.
These lace touches are charming be-
meath sheer blouse-the like of

And we doubt If you'll find one
in green. However, think twice be-
fore you buy a white one.
Is your skin clear enough to stand
the competition?
Suntan doesn't matter. White
will afford a flattering contrast.
But naturally swarthy skins
should avoid white. Also the glare
of a white shade may hurt your
eyes.
Red, too, is hard on the eyes.
You have to pick becoming color
and soft one.
Remember, yellow is almost as
restful to the eyes as green.
And soft rose or blue or violet
or wine will have none of the daz-
zling effect of red
So choose the one of these colors
that is right for you and your eye
shade will do double duty.
1t will protect your eyes and
keep your hair from blowing.
It's ideal for motoring and boat
ing, because it is cooler than a beret
and shades your eyes quite as well
as cartWheel or sailor.
Turning our attention to golf, we
have just one pet peeve to rail
against-the ugly practice of wear
ing a puH-over sweater girdled by
wide contrasting belt.
This has never been known to
f1atter any one within the memory
of man. 1t generally makes wom-
an look like beanpole or a mat
tress tied around with a strap.
Oh, you may be able to get away
with it if your figure is ideal. But
even then you'll look so much bet
ter in a cardigan buttoned below
the waist and open above it.

from PRESIDENT Roosevelt to Pope
Plus XII:
"Y0ur Holiness: '
Because, at this Christmas
time the world is in sorrow, 1t
is especially fitting that I send
you a message Of greeting and Of
faith.
"The world has created for
itself q civilization capable Of
giving to mankind security and
peace firmly set In the founda-
tions of religious teachings. Yet,
though it has conquered the
earth, the sea and even the air,
civilization today passes through
war and travail.
II take heart remembering
that in a similar time, Isaiah
first prophesied the birth Of
Christ. Then, several centuries
before his coming, the condition
Of the world was not unlike that
which we see today. Then, as
now, a conflagration had been
set; and nations walked danger
ously in the light of the fires they
had themselves kindled. But in
that very moment. a spiritual
rebirth was foreseen-a new day
which was to loose the captives
and to consume the conquerorS
in the fire Of their own kindling;
and those who had taken the
sword were to perish by the
sword. There was promised a
new age wherein through re-
newed faith and upward progress
OF the human race would become
more secure.
Worlds Travail Of Today

Again, during the several
centuries which we refer to as
the Dark Ages. the flame and
sword of barbarians swept over
Western civilization; and. again.

kind, another rebirth brought
back order and culture and re-
ligion.
II believe that the travail of
today is a new form of these old
conflicts. Because the tempo of
all worldly things has been so
greatly accelerated in these mod
ern days we can hope that the
period Of darkness and destruc-
ton will be vastly shorter than
In the olden times.
I'm their hearts men decline to
accept. for long, the law of de-
struction forced upon them by
wielders Of brute force. Always
they seek, sometimes in silence,
to find again the faith without
which the welfare of nations and
the peace of the world cannot be
rebuilt.

More War Babies,
Even Out Of Wed|ock,
Urged on Germans
Nuzis to Care for Them
If Soldier-Futhers
Fall, Women Told
BY LOUIS p. LOCHNER,


Associated Press Foreign Correspondent.
BERLIN, Dec. 23.-Two Nazi
leaders in pronouncements, stress
ing the importance of continued
vitality for the nation, gave assur-
ances today of care for children
born out of wedlock whose fathers
die in the European conflict.
Heinrich Himmler, head of all
German police organizations and
leader of the S. S. elite Guard
urged on S. S. men the need for
children and advised them:
Special sponsors will be ap-
pointed by me for all children of
good blood born in or out of we'd
lock whose fathers fall in the war"
New Life Important.
Rudolf Hess, deputy leader of
the Nazi party. announced in q
letter to an unmarried expectant
mother whose soldier-fiancee died
In Poland:
During war especially, which so
often means death for the best
men. every new life is of extraor-
dinary Importance to the nation.
Hence. If young soldiers fall on
behalf of the fatherland who, for
some reason or other, could not
marry and who leave children be-
hind, the state will take care of this
national treasure"
The Nazi party will, if desired,
stand sponsor for children of war
fathers" he continued, and will
look after their education and give
material aid.
Hlmmler issued his views in an
order to the entire S. S. and po-
lice" in which he observed:
Every war means letting of the
best blood. Many victory of arms
was at the same time a devastat-
Ing defeat for the nations vitality"
Exalted Task for Women.
Wars worst aspect, he said, is not
the death of soldiers, but "the alb
sence Of children who were not be-
gotten during the war by the living
nor after the war by the dead.
The ancient saying that only he
can die peacefully who has sons
ana children must be translated
into fact during this war by the
S. S.
Beyond the limits of bourgeois
laws and customs which ordinarily
are probably necessary it can be-
come an exalted task even outside
OF wedlock for German women and
girls of good blood to become-not
frivolously, but imbued with deep
est moral concern-mothers of chill
dren begotten by soldiers moving to
the front without knowing whether
they will return or die for the
fatherland"
Need Have No Qualms.
He then recalled how during the
World War many soldiers decided
against children so as not to bur-
den the mothers in case they failed
to return.
you S. S. men need have no
such qualms or fears" Himmler
said. Special sponsors will
be appointed by me for all chill
dren of good blood born in or out
OF wedlock whose fathers fall in
the war"
The sponsors will look after the
mothers and children during the
war and. if the fathers fall, after
the war. Fathers who return after
the war but are in economic dis
tress will be assisted generously
financially by the S. S., it was said.

things, the new order may we'll
be at hand. I believe that it is
even now being built, silently but
inevitably, In the hearts of
masses whose voices are not
heard, but whose common faith
will write the final history of our
time. They know that unless
there Is belief in some guiding
principle and some trust in a
divine plan, nations are without
light. and peoples perish. They
know that the civilization handed
down to us by our fathers was
built by men and women who
knew in their hearts that all
were brothers because they were
children Of God. They believed
that by His will enmities can be
healed; that in His mercy the
weak can find deliverance, and
the strong can find grace in help.
ing the weak.
IN the grief and terror of the
hour. these quiet voices, If they
can be heard, may yet tell Of the
rebuilding of the world.
1T is well that the world should
think Of this at Christmas.
Because the people of this
Nation have come to a realization
that time and distance no longer
exist in the older sense, they un-
derstand that that which harms
one segment of humanity harms
all the rest. They know that only
by friendly association between
the seekers of light and the seek
ers of peace everywhere can the
forces of evil be overcome.
Urges Closer Association
for Common Purpose.
In these present moments, no
spiritual leader, no civil leader can
move forward on a specific plan
to terminate destruction and
build anew. Yet the time for
that will surely come.
1T is, therefore, my thought
that though no given action or
given time may now be prophe-
sled. it is well that we encourage
a closer association between those
in every part of the world-those
in religion and those in govern
ment-who have common pur-
pose.
Il am. therefore. suggesting to
Your Holiness that it would give
me great satisfaction to send to
you my personal representative
in order that our parallel en-
deavors for peace and the allevia-
ton of suffering may be assisted.
When the time shall come for
the re-eStablishment of world
peace on a surer foundation, it
is Of the utmost importance to
humanity and to religion that
common ideals shall have united
expression.
Furthermore, when that happy
day shall dawn, great problems of
practical import will face us all.
Millions Of people of all races.
all nationalities and all religions
may seek new lives by migration
to other lands or by re-establish-
ments of old homes Here, too.
common ideals call for parallel
action.
Il trust, therefore, that all of
the churches Of the world which
believe in a common God will
throw the great weight Of their
influence into this great cause.
ITO you, whom I have the
privilege Of calling a good friend
and an old friend, send my re-
