BUSINESS UPTURN
 SEEN BY BABSON
Employment, Wages Due to Rise in All Save Very
 Few Communities

Boston. Sept. g = (U.P0 = Gen. eral business should improve during the remainder of the war. economist Roger w. Babson said today.
 In luncheon address before the Executives Club and Sales Managers Club, Babson said a few. communi- ties and industries will suffer. But he added:
 "As a whole we should see in- creased employment, increased wages, increased prices for commo- dities, securities and productive real estate-yes, and there will be an in- crease in one other thing, namely taxes"
 Babson said he was passing his forecast on the assumption that the war will be long war and will re- suit more or less in stalemate, with Germany in control of western Europe, but with England still in tact and with Great Britain in con- trol of the seas.
 He said that after the war he ex- pected to see eight major changes. These included shake-up in indus try and in available jobs; no fur ther government subsidies for farm CTS and others; an attempt to rid school systems of politics; more about eugenics or the breedings of humans and less about democracy; a religious shakeup in which church officials now keeping Professionalism divided" may be put in concentra- ton camps; a decline in population of larger cities; one party system of government; and rebith of pro- hibition with the word applying to many more evils than just the liquor evil"

Overshoes Have
High, Low Heels

Overshoes don't change much
from year to year. They just be-
come a little heater looking, a lit
tie more streamlined and bit more
decorative. But this year the prin-
cipal news is that the makers of ga
loshes have finally realized that
many women wear low-heeled shoes
during the winter months.
So this season you will find even
the velvet carriage shoes trimmed
with black bunny fur, available in
three heel heights-low, Cuban and
high. These are extremely smart
worn with a velvet trimmed cloth
coat or one of fur.
The familiar all-rubber galoshes
are also made in the three heel
sizes this year, and the toes are
given boxy look. You'll find a
black on black contrast in these.
with shiny rubber applied In a pat
tern over the arch, and in a panel
around the toes, and on the heels.
There are low overshoes that look
like grown-up rubbers. These are
styled to cover the entire shoe, but
stop below the ankle. In order to
make these look like shoes they are
given a smart suede finish and
trimmed with shiny rubber for a
suede and patent look.

thinking, cit will be my turn next.
What will they think when they
come to our house?" Then she put
her latch key into the lock and
stepped into her own front hall.
"Just what I was afraid Of" she
said aloud. "When you look at
this hall as an outsider the worst
thing you think is that its owner
is lacking in imagination"
Right then things began to hap
pen. The shabby old hall carpet
was washed right on the floor and
then dyed deep green with hot
dye applied with a scrub brush.
The long lines of the new green
sateen curtains turned the space
between door and window into
definite panel crying for a long
mirror and a console shelf. The
sketch shows you how these were
made from next to nothing. The

Oatmeal on a dampened cloth
will clean white paint.
To prevent rust in the stove
oven, leave the door open for an
hour after baking.
Salt meat requires longer boil
ing than fresh meat.
Freshen up stale loaves, buns

Wicker chairs can be scrubbed
with hot water and soap.
To make your popovers really
pop over, be sure to have the bak-

hot. The pans should "sizzle"
when you quickly touch them with
fingers dipped in cold water.
