Two-Skirt Outfit
Real Money-Saver

A money-saver for the bride con-

fitted jacket. The street-length skirt
can be worn with the jacket and
printed crepe or organdy blouses to
make a smart runabout costume by
day.
A fioor-length skirt Of the same
material, combined with the jacket
and a sheer chiffon blouse make a
chic dinner costume for boat and
hotel wear in the evening.

These Smart Patterns
Look ahead to Fall


no YOU take a woman's size?
- Then here is a lovely dress
for you, (1799) youthful yet sophis-
ticated, with clever bodice de-
failing, to create a round bosomed
effect, and a paneled skirt that
makes your hips look narrow. It's
a perfect style for luncheons and
club affairs, yet not too dressy for
street and shopping wear, too.
Flat crepe, thin wool and rayon
jersey are smart materials for
this.

chiefly by the number of requests
from listeners. His secretary tabu-

If possible, he sings the songs for
which there are the greatest number
of requests. The only difficulty is
that people keep requesting the

Germany Faces Problems On Western Front

with at least 100 million men
women and children in her expand
ing borders, Germany turns from
the conquered eastern front tt

conflict in the west.
Industrially, she is better pre-
pared for conflict than month
ago. Poland has been her great
est grab in the series of seizures
that began with the Austrian an
schluss in 1888.
In partitioning conquered Poland
with Russia, Germany has added at
least 100000 persons, most OF
them hostile, to her population. With
them, the NaZis have absorbed an
estimated $4,000 square miles of Po-
lands best industrial areas and
some of her valuable natural re-
sources.
From a nutritional standpoint,
Germany is little stronger than
before the Polish grab. Germany's

agricultural or grazing areas.
In and effort to foreStall famine,
she has started rationing her people
early in this war.
German housewives now carry
seven ration cards for each member
of the family. Curbed foods in
clude meat, butter, margarine,
cheese, sugar. jam, cereals, coffee
substitutes, eggs, soap and bread.
WHEAT is LARGEST
SINGLE IMPORT
Bread is rationed because even
the vast wheat fields of b.
hernia and Moravia do no grow
enough to supply the millions of
Germans. Wheat is the Reich's
largest edible import.
Substitution plays a great part
in the functioning of wartime
menus. Sugar is made from po-
tatoes, fish is eaten for meat, saw
dust make wood flour for us as
fodder. For bread, Germans eat a
substitute made partly of cellulose.
Only agricultural product Ger
many acquires in any abundance is
potatoes. Already she has an
abundance of this food.
In the Polish partition, Germany
got the lions share of electrical,
chemical, textile, leather, and
foodstuffs industries, and deposits
of iron, coal and oil Russia got
thu largest grain fields, pastures,
forests, oil wells, and the Ukran-
ians.

Factories worked at a rapid pace

come. Equipment wore out, and not

there was nation wide drop in the
health level, according to a For

But despite predictions from out
side that the system would collapse

Before the war, Germany built
up manufacturing industries to de-

with cotton, silk, rubber and wool

sumption, she brought in iron ore,
lead, copper, tin, and zinc to make
arms and military machines.
