COTTON FROCK HAS
LONGER WAISTLINE


If you like to be ION your toes"
in fashion and still keep well with
budget bounds, form the make-at-
home habit! It's easy fun to stitch
up q dress like Pattern 994, a Claire
Tilden style just brimmi11g over
with new-Season fashion notes. The
long-torso look given by the low
waist-seam is very new, very chic.
Then there's that graceful 11eckline
in sweetheart shape. Let the bias
skirt, cut in Just two easy pieces,
blithely flare. And fasten smart
" buckled belt about your waist.
Here comes the gayest idea of all:
If this frock is to serve for every
day wear accent the neckline, the
short sleeves and the waist scanning
with the brilliant colored, simple-to
do blanket stitching. A gay old
fashioned touch that's very much in
voguel Another suggestion, for a
softer afternoon dress, is to make
a big bow at the neck. Do choose
bright linen, cotton or becoming
printed crepe for this spirited style,

@. What is the best way to care
for a sick child who must be kept
in bed?
A. He should not sleep in bed
with another person. It may be nee
essary for the mother to sleep in
the room with the child, but it is
much more restful and wholesome
for him to sleep alone. The child
should have a long nap in the mid
die Of the day in a darkened room
with windows opened. Be sure that
the bed is well made: that the
lower sheet is drawn tight and the
bedcovers are suitable for the room
temperature. At night his bed should
be remade and he should be bathed
and made comfortable. Do not urge
a sick child to play. A few toys may
be put within reach, but an acutely
i'll child needs rest, not amusement
Give him a warm sponge bath once,
or even twice q day. If ne has a
high fever and is restless, sponge
him with cool water (about so de-
greeS F.. He should wear ordinary
night clothes with an extra sweater
or bathrobe when he sits up in bed

eral musicals, have been outstanding
on radio and they have enjoyed rec
ord-breaking engagements at the
Trocadero and Cocoanut Grove in
Hollywood, the Roxy theater In New
York, and have long been favorites
with Broadway audiences in the big
geSt and most successful musicals
ever produced!. So be sure to meet
them here in person Wednesday
evening. Other stars appearing on
the program include Ballard g. Rae,
two hilarious eccentrix; Murray
White, popular singing star heard
for many years on leading programs
over the air: Tanner & Thomas,

popular melodies will certainly win
your approval, and to complete this
evening Of fun and entertainment
are Warner & Margie in a comedy
act that is positively riotous! Gus
Meyers, Jr. and the Loew Poll the
alter orchestra will furnish spark
ling musical background for the
stage show which will be presented
in addition to a dynamic double hit
screen bill with, best of all, abso-
lutely no advance in our regular
popular prices.
Heading the screen presentation is
a lusty, romantic drama of the good
old days when New York was
boisterous little town where grog
was penny a Swig-and a barmaid--
or a lady-could win man like Rob-
ert Fulton. The title of the hit pro-
duction is Little Old New York,
starring Richard Greene and Alice
Faye with Fred MacMurray and
Brenda Joyce sharing top billing,
Featured in the production are
Henry Stephenson and Andy De-
vine.
The companion hit presents Jane
Withers as a young lady growing
up and actually having a beau at

ting hard on the "Aren't-you-won-
derful" line. Henry was too INTEL
iectual to be greatly influenced by
that.
What she did was to make it easy
and pleasant for him to be with
people. Something he had never
been able to accomplish alone.
SHE PLANNED ..
1T THAT WAY
She planned small parties where
he wouldn't be overlooked in con-
fusion Of small talk. At these par
ties, she managed at least once dur
ing an evening to switch the dis
cussion until 1t was right down
Henry's alley.
She coaxed him into reading
books entirely unrelated to his job,
so that he wouldn't turn into bore.
She picked herself a hobby she
thought he might enjoy-and after
watching her enthusiasm for six
months he became interested
(Which left her free to drop 1t in
favor of a real interest of her own }
It was only coincidence, of course,
that the hobby was in field in
which the Dean of the school was
a minor expert.
And it was just luck that Henry
and the Dean became such good
friends, the Dean recommended
Henry for his position when he
stepped into better one.

co is DEADLY BUT NOT
POISONOUS

Carbon monoxide, the deadly gas
given OF by gas-engine exhaust, or
by any fuel burning with closed
damper and restricted supply Of air,
and present in large quantity in IL
Illuminating gas, is colorless, odorless,
tasteless, gives no warning whatS0-
ever Of its preence In the air, may
kill in q few moments If inhaled in
considerable concentration in the
air, In an hour If breathed in the
proportion Of only four parts in a
thousand parts Of air. It is likely
to overcome the victim, render him
powerless to think or act Of. try to
escape, without warning. Many
tragic fatalities are due to popular
unawareness Of the stealthy way in
which carbon monoxide overcomes
its victims.
Some physicians have assumed by
inference from the symptoms that
carbon monoxide has a direct de-
structive or. damaging effect upon
the cells Of the nervous system. This
destruction Of certain cells in the
brain, they have thought, would ac-
count for the paralysis in acute
cases Of carbon monoxide casing
and the unpredictable nervous and
mental disturbances which occur in
mild chronic cases or as sequels of
acute casing.
But more thorough, study Of SUBJ
ject and careful scientific expert
mentation make it certain that car
bon monoxide itself is not poisonous
and does no. damage to the tissues
or cells of the body. In fact living
tissue cultures will grow in a con-
centrated atmosphere of carbon
monoxide. It is therefore inaccu-
rate to think of carbon monoxide
poisoning. The harmful or fatal
effects Of inhaling air polluted with
carbon monoxide are due wholly to
oxygen starvation, insufficient oxy-
gen reaching the tissues and cells
through the blood, anoxia, as physi-
clans call it. The carbon rnonoxide
merely crowds oxygen out, forms a
loose combination with the hemo-
globin in the blood and so prevents

Clarifying
Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Stan Writer

Wv
It isn't too early to begin think
ing about the way you firmly intend
to look in your Easter outfit. The
smart woman worries about her
figure before she buys spring suit
instead Of during the shopping
spree.
She gets her hands in perfectly
lovely condition long before start
ing to look for new gloves. From
now until time TO buy an Easter
bonnet, she works to make her hair
shiny, healthy and beautiful. Then
when, with the hat In hand, she
goes to her hairdresser to tall
about new couture, he'll have Pill
able, elastic hair to work with
rather than dry, dull hfeless-look
ing locks.
She goes on a sane diet now In
stead Of radical, fad diet to lose
weight quickly later. She simply eats
a little less of everything on every
menu instead of cutting out several
items. She knows that If she con-
sumes fewer Galleries than her body
burns up per day that she will lose
weight. There's no. compromising
with that fact unless there is some
thing organically wrong-m which
case medical not beauty advice, is
needed.
ROLLS AWAY
THE BULGES
She does exercises in the spot
reducing category. She rolls to take
weight of her hipline. She bends
stretches, twists and turns and
turns and bends again to make her
waiStline small. To make her stom-
ach fiat, she lies on the floor and
keeping ankles together, lifts legs
slowly upward as far as possible
then lowers them just as slowly
meanwhile keeping hands above
head.
She takes a brisk walk every day
She does posture exercises now and
then to eliminate the hollow in the
center of her backbone, to make
stomach fiat, chest high and shoul-
ers square but perfectly relaxed.
She scrubs her face with soap
and water at least once day and
occasionally uses a half-water and
half Lemon juice bleach to remove
the grayish tone that winter has left
in her complexion. She uses night
cream every night, mask treat
ment once a week, hand lotions and
creams several times day..
Not until the complexion treat
ments, the sensible diet, the exer-
cises and the daily walk have had
a chance to improve the texture and
tone of her skin does she shop for
new makeup. She knows that her
new powder must match her natural
skin tones. She has no intention OF
having to forego buying one Of the
new rosy, glowing shades Of powder
because her complexion is grayish.

No Merry Christmas
In English Monastery

There is one place where the JOY
ous cry of Merry Christmas!" will
aot ring out. This is the Trappist
Monastery at Whitwick in England.
Officially it is known as the Mount
Saint Bernard's Monastery, and
there are about 40 monks resident.
In addition to abstaining from
meat and fish, these men have i'm
posed upon themselves the vow OF
perpetual silence. On Christmas eve
at IL o'clock they will attend Mass,
then retire to their cubicles for sleep
or meditation till a. m, when
they will rise and join in the chant
ing of lauds and mathis. Presuma-
bly, the vow of silence holds good
only for conversation.
Christmas breakfast will consist
of tea or coffee and one slice Of
bread and jam. Dinner will be
weighed carefully to ensure that
there is no over-indulgence, and at
night they will sup off vegetables
and tea or hot milk. They usually
retire at nine, so as to be ready for
prayer at two in the morning on
Boxing day. The Guest Master says:
'This way of spending the Holy
Season is the best of ALL"

Bald Eagle
Protected

The bald eagle, symbol OF
American ideals Of freedom, is
now protected from all hunters
and collectors by an act of Con-
gress which has been approved
by the president. Enforcement
of the act will be delegated to U.
S. Game wardens and deputy
agents of the Bureau of Biologi-
cal Survey.
The "Bald Eagle Act" was
sponsored by Senator David |.
Walsh and Representative Chas.
R. Clason. Declaring that the
bald eagle is now threatened
with extinction and expressing
the desire to protect the bird
that was adopted as the nation
al symbol by the Continental
Congress in 1882, the act pro-
hibits anyone from possessing
bald eagles in any manner,
whether by taking, bartering,
selling or other means. The act
protects the bird throughout the
United States and it's possess
