First in the class of fashion is
this merry little schoolgirl in her
back-to-school dress. Mothers will
like Claire Tilden's Pattern 906 too,
for 1t offers inspiration for such
grand variety. First, while days are
still warmish, you can quickly stitch
up a little wash frock Of pretty cot
ton print, bright gingham or striped
chambray. Looks crisp and fresh
for under-coat wear, too. Then,
when Old Man Winter comes blow
ing round the corner, make still an
other frock, using contrast 50 that
it will look like blouse and skirt.
The skirt part might be Of dark fab
ric; the top of gay print. Those
careful darts that radiate from the
neckline give a nice fit whether you
decide to use the perky bow or the
pointed collar. And you might try
a contrasting fabric, with ruffled
edges, for both collar and cuffs of
the short sleeved style. The circu-

Clarifying
Yourself
BY Alicia Hart

If it has been longer than you
care to admit since you looked
closely at your mouth and considered
its appearance from every angle how
about doing so right now? Don't let
all the talk about eyes being the
focal point of beauty convince you
for a moment that the mouth isn't
conspicuous feature.
You can't actually change the
shape of your mouth, of course, but
by skillful application of lipstick,
you can build it up bit more,
shorten a line there, make too-thin
lips seem fuller, too-thick ones more
delicately formed.
AS a start toward applying lip
stick to achieve certain effect in
stead of simply to bring color into
the face, buy lip brush. With this,
proper outlining can be done. Then
the spaces inside the lines may be
filled in easily. Hollywood makeup
experts approve of this method.
In addition to learning more about
what can be done with lipstick, do
something about those down-sloping
lines from sides of the nose to the
corners of the mouth. Specifically,
repeat this exercise ten times while
you have night cream on your face.
PINCH AWAY
THOSE LINES
Keeping lips tightly together, lift
the corners of the mouth and grin.
Don't merely smile. Keep lips to-
gether and GRIN. Grin until the
corners of your mouth seem to be
pushing upward against cheek bones.
Relax and repeat.
Now, bend forefingers and using
sides of them and cushions Of
thumbs, gently pinch upward from
corners of mouth to temples. Lift
the flesh gently, pinching lightly. Re-
peat ten times, and don't remove
face cream until you have finished.
Also, and Importantly, examine
your teeth. Are they shiningly white
and in excellent condition? If not,
better see your dentist at once. No
smile can be lovelier than the teeth
behind it.

It is hard for us over here, to
make our children understand that
we must thank God on our knees
for the oceans that surround us.
That, Of course, does not mean
everlasting immunity.
My point is this: war today should
not mean a celebration among our
children. They should be taught
that war is not a circus. 1t is more

The 1889 convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor at Cincin-
natl, Ohio, reaffrmed the position
taken by the 1888 convention that La
boris Partisan League is hostile
to the principles and policies of the
American Federation of Labor and
should be avoided by all members of
A. F. of L. unions.
The subject of the League was
brought to the attention of the con-
vention by Delegate Burt Currigan of
the California State Federation of
Labor, who introduced a resolution
sponsored by the California State
Federation of Labor as result of the
action taken at the 1889 convention
of the State Federation held at Oak
land, California, during the week of
September 25, 1889.
Condemned by A. F. of L.
"The American Federation of Labor

but the Christmas party is scheduled

The local accepted an invitation by
Mr.. Mckee to attend special service
for Thanksgiving at the Presbyterian
Church with more than $50 members
attending. The choir was chosen from
our membership and two of our lovely

Overnight Thousand People
Escorted Through Plant
At Cambridge

Cambridge, O.-The Universal Pot
teries Company is still operating at
top speed and officials Of the firm are
looking forward to next year with the
belief that business will be even bet
ter. The last few months have seen a
number of idle potters return to their
trade. The number of new faces on
the plant is so numerous one cannot
keep account Of them all. Our sim
cere hope is that this upturn in the
industry is not temporary one.
No doubt the war has its effect on
the rise in employment, but one can
not discount the effect of the 'Buy
American" organization.
Universal Potteries with the cooper
alton of the local Chamber of Com
merce staged an open house at plant
No. /, at which time it is estimated
that more than 5000 people were es-
corted through the plant during the
day. Business houses were closed dur
ing the morning to make it possible
for the clerks to visit the shop. A
parade headed by the city officials and
Cambridge band led the pupils of the
schools of the county, fraternal and
civic bodies through the plant. The
Chamber of Commerce is grateful to
the management of the pottery for
their hospitality in allowing the peo-
pie of the community to see the pot

War Agdinst Killers Dictatorship Is
|SolidlY Backed By New Zedldnd Labor

In Message to Workers" the New
Zealand Federation of Labor en-
phatically denounced the totalitarian
dictatorship imposed on Germany by
the Hitler autocracy and declared it's
wholehearted support of the war to
abolish the German regime which
menaces the existence of democratic
governments and peoples throughout
the world.
As an outstanding example Of the
tyrannous methods against labor used
by Hitler and his brutal followers, the
Message said, "The efforts of the best
of the German people to preserve
their liberties have been met with the
headsman's axe, with concentration
camps and their barbaric tortures, and
with exile" adding:
German thought, which made so
many valuable contributions to world
knowledge, has been placed in chains" "
The following is the official "Mes-
sage to Workers" issued by the New
Zealand Federation of Labor:
"Since the declaration of war, the
New Zealand Federation of Labor has

Gil in Wellington and issued the fol-

meeting Of February, 1889, held at

March 1, 1889, addressed to all State
federations of labor, city central
bodies, and directly affiliated labor
unions in which it was ordered that
all organizations affiliated with La
bor's Non-Partisan League imme-

Recent suits brought by the Sher-
man Antitrust Division of the De-
partment of Justice, under the d.
rection of Assistant Attorney General
Thurman Arnold, charging certain
American Federation of Labor trade
unions and their officials with vio-
lating the Sherman Antitrust law,
recall the strong criticism of Mr..
Arncld's activities made by Joseph A..
Padway, counsel for the American
Federation Of Labor, in an address
before the 1889 A. F. of L. conven-
tion at Cincinnati, Ohio.
After reviewing the recent re-
dictionary legislation passed by num-
ber Of State legislatures restricting
the ordinary and long-recognized
functions of trade unions, with special
reference to strikes, picketing and the
use Of injunctions against unions and
their representatives, Mr.. Padway took
up the procedure against organized
labor developed by the Department of
Justice Antitrust Division under the
sponsorship of Mr.. Arnold.
"There is one other thing, while l
am discussing these legal questions,
that would like to bring to your at
tention, and that is a certain activity
on the part of a certain division of
the Department of Justice" Mr.. Pad
way said. "When I talk about this

"The Federation has repeatedly ex-
pressed it's sympathy with the victims
of aggression, both inside Germany

been over-run by the Nazis. We have
repeatedly advocated the formation Of
a League of the Peoples of the demo-

that makes life worth while. At last
a stand is made against the forces
that seek to arrest and turn back the
wheels of human progress. We give
it our unqualified support.
