out the season and perhaps win
the championship again.

Once in an age, God sends to
some of us a friend who loves in
us, not a false-imagining, an I'M
real CHI acter, but, looking
through the rubbish of our imper-
fections, loves in us the divine
ideal of our nature-loves, not the
man that we are, but the angel
that we may be. Such friends
seem inspired by the divine gift of
prophecy-like the mother of st.
Augustine, who, in the midst of
the waywardo, reckless youth of
her son, beheld him in a vision
standing clothed in white, a min
istering priest at the right hand
of God, as he has stood for long

Dining Car Men Win SOS, 1000

LOS ANGELES (CNA)-Com-
bined victories of the Dining Car

added more than $208,00O to the
income of it's members, so check

A review of the work of the I'M
ion on the occasion of invitations
to the national conference of Ne
gro Railroad Workers just held in
Washington, D. c. has brought out
the fact that Los Angeles Local
465 has shared fully in the drama
tic history of the union.
The movement started early in
1884. with demands for improved
working conditions, more pay and
fewer hours of work.
The organizations first victory
was to establish contractural rela-
lions with the railroads. This auto
matically reduced the basic work
month to 240 hours, under the a.
mended Railway Labor Act, and
gave the workers, covered by the
agreement, an increase of $4,000
per year over the then existing
rates of pay. The victory of jan
uary, 1888, raised the pay by $780,
900 a year.

.$50,o00,0O0 Savings
Invested in Homes
In Six Months
Sum Is Estimated as
Down Payment in
Building or Buying

During the first six months of
this year holders of share accounts
IN savings, building and loan asso-
Citations made some $5O,OOO,OO of
down payments on homes they were
building or buying, using their ac-
cumulated savings in the associa-
tions, the United States Building
and Loan League estimates. This
outflow plus the sos, 900 900 paid out
IN dividends and the money needed
for emergency and other purposes
made a total of $3.50 900 900 used by
shareholders between January and
June 80, according to Morton Bod
fish, Chicago, executive vice presi-
dent of the league.
Offset by an inflow of investors
funds such as has not been expe-
rienced since before the depression,
this turnover of cash represented a
normal percentage of the share cap
ital, In comparison with other years
Of non-depression business levels, he
said.
The $50,0OO,0OO used for a start on
home ownership is in line with the
108-year-old savings, building and
loan tradition, it is pointed out,
Evening star., 1939-08-12

since the original shareholders in
such institutions were all saving to
acquire homes at some future date.
The money provided for down pay
ments is estimated to have made
possible the acquisition of 5000 0O0,-
600 worth Of homes the past six
months.
"The total outflow from the thrift
and home financing institutions the
first six months of this year was
larger than that for the same pc
riod Of 1885," said Mr.. Bodfish. This
Is partially due to the fact that
there are more total assets in asso-
Citations now than there were this
time last year, and in the normal
course Of events more would be used
by savers in the course of a half
year. Home building is consider
ably improved over its status of last
year and thus more people have
wanted to use .their accumulated
savings to start building and buying
homes"
The cash turnover of association
funds included payments for taxes
and hazard insurance premiums up
to more than $1,000 900, accounts
for which have been built up by an
increasing number of home borrow

June Building Loans
High Month for Decade

Savings, building and loan asso-
Citations in June topped all previous
months of the decade with loans of
$94 ,154,00 to homeowners, the
United States Building and Loan
League reports. This month brought
the total for the first half of the
year up to s453 ,955, 900, a gain of
16 per cent over 1938s like six
months.
Clarence T. Rice, Kansas City,
Kans., president of the league, gives
credit for the upward trend both to
the rising volume of home building
and to the increasing amounts of
available funds in savings and loan
associations due to their current
popularity as a channel for savings
and investment. Each month of the
first six this year saw an increase
in loan volume over the preceding
month. The rise from May to June
was ST per cent.

GIOriying Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA service staff Writer

NEA SGEVlCC 0tBAA NuAAs[A
 The June bride who plans to wear a different coiffure for her wedding ought to have her hair done the new way at least week before the date of the ceremony. It takes as little time to get used to new hairdo. The average woman usually is self conscious about one until she has worn it a while and had 1t set at least a second time.
 Having made up her mind to change her hairstyle, the bride should take her wedding veil as well as her going-away hat to the operator who is to create the new coiffure. She must insist that the hairdo he suggests be fiattering when she is hatless, or wears the veil or her going-away hat.
 Once a decision has been reached, and her hair has been dried, brushed and re-arranged, small sketch cl the coiffure should be made. That is, unless she and the operator are absolutely certain that they can re- member just where every rtnglet and every wave is placed. The bride won't want to take the veil and the hat along when she goes back to the beauty shop before the ceremony hence the sketch.
 sT,ITTLE GIRL" TYPE
 IS POPULAR FAVORITE
 Among the new summer coiffureS fiattering to the young girl of medi- um height, whose features are rather small, the baby is outstanding. For this, hair on top of the head and at sides is cut until it is no more than three inches in length. Back hair many be slightly shorter. Unless the hair is naturally curly, a new permanent wave is required. In either case, the hair is set in tiny ringlets all over the head. When it's dry, these are brushed out, then brushed back into small, soft curls.
 Bride or not, it is 8 mistake for any woman to allow the drier to be turned off until her freshly set hair is thoroughly dry. Afterward, the operator who set it ought to brush it vigorously, then arrange the waves and ringlets. The wave which won't stand a good brushing simply isn't worth paying for.
