PATTERN 1OR

When you wear this really strik- ing dress, the number of heads that turn to admire you will turn your OWN head! It's the simple but in- genious play of line on line ctSt does the trick! First there's that smart bodice panel, tapering down into a point below the waistline. It gives your figure the long, slimly nodded torso that's so new this year. Novelty buttons and crisp bow will make it even more attractive. The skirt panel has softly gathered full- ness-so effective! And the side waist-seams slant high, to hold in the bodice softness. Make the neck youthfully high and round, or in a simple V. In back there's just one slim, long panel, and you may add sash that ties in Saucy back bow. The panels and the bow would look very exciting in flash of con- trasting color down the front. On the other hand, just 8 crisp white bow is radiantly becoming. Either way, Pattern 106 by Claire Tilden will collect compliments for you! Pattern 106 is cut in misses and womens sizes IA, 16, IS, 20, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40 and 42. Size 16 requires 1 yards 39 inch fabric.

 The spring crop of new cosmetics is in full bloom. This is the time to pick some of the loveliest ones for Easter presents.
 One smart. gift is miniature, white wire bird-cage containing three colored eggs, each of which contains dram of fine perfume. A yellow chick, few spring blossoms and yards of satin ribbon are posed atop the cage. There's wide variety of scents from which you can choose three to go in the eggs. Handy Purse-Size
 Manicure Kit
 A tiny makeup kit, in the shape of the kind of bell usually found at ringsides, is filled with ipstick in beautiful, clear shade of red, a harmonizing rouge, eye shadow and 8 very small bottle of foundation lotion. The package is amusing, the preparations as refreshing as a breath of spring. .....
 A diminutive manicure kit to be carried in the purse includes bottle of polish, another of non-drying polish remover, tiny emery boards and an orange stick. This is the an- swerf to the problems of the woman whose polish is forever cracking or getting chipped when she is far from a manicurist or her own home sup ply of manicure preparations.

In Hollywood
BY PAUL HARRISON

NEA Service Staff Correspondent
~HOLLYWOOD.-In a restaurant
near Republic the other noon,. a
little girl edged between the ia
bles, put an autograph book on top
Of Patsy Kelly's omelet and de-
manded a signature. Miss Kelly
obliged, then said, Hey, wait

Phil Silvers, but he'll be a big

The brat stared at the pink

''I'll wait!" she snapped.
MI. Silvers isn't insulted because
Hollywood fails to recognize him.
He's better known in the midlands
and the east as a vaudeville comic,
and Sinking patrons Of the strip
and-grind houses knew him for
three years. Broadway saw him
for a few brief weeks last winter
in one of the top roles in ''Yokel
Boy" a musical which didn't quite
make good.
1t was that show, though, which
brought him a contract in Holly
wood. Incidentally, it also led to
the r%ediscovery of Judy Canova,
who once languished for a year al

With vaudeville in such an un-

three years, mostly for the Min
