Spring Dress Styles Repeat
Trend of Last Century

those which were the rage 100
or 800 years ago.
So say Or. "A. L. Kroeber,
University Of California profess
sor Of anthropology, and Dr.
Jane Richardson, former Uni
versitv student. following deep
research mo women's fashions.
In Cycles
They found that the basic
dimensions of modern Occi-
dental feminine dress come in
cycles OF about 100 years. The
basic pattern is repeated again
and again about a century
apart. while the superStructHrai
features. such as trains. sleeves.
girdle. and flounces vary with
the Whims of designers.
The basic pattern, they say.
Is an ideal toward which
European culture has been tend
ing during recent centuries. 1t
includes a skirt that is both
full and long, a waist that IS
abnormally CONSTRUCTED but in
nearly proper anatomical posi-
ton. and a neckline that is
ample both vertically and hori-
zontally.
thorough Study
Standard characteristics of
dresseS-their Silhouettes-were
studied over a 332 year period
of styles.
The two periods in which the
widest fluctuauon occurred, 1T
was found. were the Napoleonic
era of 17S7-1S36 and the World
War period and nearby decades
19ln-1936.
For studies, Or. Kroeber and
Miss Richardson utilized por-
traits by old masters, ltho-
graphed fashion plates and fash
ion magazines.

The vivacious Bette will not
take up any mode she dislikes.
Even the popular pompadour has
never met with her approval.
She prefers the long, simple bob
with a low side part. In her new
picture. The Great Lie" she
will introduce a new and very
smart hairdress. 1t will feature
a fringe of uncurled bangs,
brushed softly to the sides in a
girlish hairdo fashion.
Activity and constant work
before the camera insure a slen-
der figure.
Long brilliant nails are ia
yored by this clever star but this
IS for off the screen. So many
of her character parts call for
colorless polish.
Simple Care
Simple beauty treatments reg
ularly applied are the rule.
When not working Bette uses
very little makeup. She has d
delicate skin and even though
she never exposes her fine COM
plexion to the sun she likes out
door life whenever possible. She
swims, walks and plays tennis
but waits until the heat of the
day is over for this sport.
Lots OF lovely perfume bottles
fill her cabinet but she likes
colognes and toilet water for
general use.

Ellen GIasgow's Novel
Story Of Family Life
BY IRENE NJ. HAWKINS
women's Editor, The Detroit Times

MY GRANDMOTHER always
said relatives are thrust upon
us but thank goodness we can
choose our friends. Relatives
sure can put you through the
PAGES. especially an immediate
family of them. We're thinking
of the Undertakes in a novel
entitled. In This Our Life by
Ellen Glasgow, published by
Harcourt, Brace.
Such an unhappy family we've
never looked in on one half
Of them selfish and demanding
and the other half never having
the courage 10 stop all the nom
sense of being imposed upon.
First, there's poor Asa, who
has dFadged att his life to give
them the best that he can. and
all the while a secret longing
gnawing at his vitals TO be free
of it all Some day he's going
to achieve that freedom, but so
finds him still in his stall.
Poor Lavinia!
Then there's Lavinia, whom he
married and thoroughly dislikes.
Lavinia is, or thinks she is, an
invalid. Some one is always
having to give up a movie or
this or that to sit with her and
give her warm milk. "Oh, don't
pay any attention to me" La
vinia keeps whining. Well, he'll
leave her, that's what he'll do.
But he doesn't. He merely slips
off for an afternoon with Kate.
And there's Stanley, pretty
as picture, who helps herself
to what she wants, no matter
TO whom it belongs, including
other peoples husbands. And
when the spoiled mink has made
herself and half a dozen other
people unhappy. Lavinia means
'Oh, my poor baby" and
everybody runs for the smelling
salts.

JAPAN ATTACKS RUSSIA

When it comes to fighting you
get an index to man, or nation,
when you see how, when and why
he attacks his enemy. Some men
who have grudgc simply walk
up to the enemy" and fight re-
gardless of whether they are able
| to win or not. That is courage.
Some hold the grudge and wait
until a time when the enemy" is
helpless and then attack in saw
age fury as tho they were pre-
destined masters of the situation.
That is cowardice. The town bully
belongs to this class.
National leaders classify them
selves in following one of these
two methods of fighting.
Today we have a deep respect
for Czechoslavakia, Poland, Bel
GUM, Greece and Yugoslavia
They didn't hesitate to meet the
enemy though the odds were
hopelessly against them.
Today we have an utter con-
tempt for Italy and Japan be-
cause they have struck against
their enemies only when they
were sure the enemies were help
less.
Mussolini struck at France only
when France had been beaten to
the ground. Italy struck at
Greece only because she was sure
it would be a quick and easy job.
Licked to a frazzle when Germany
jumped on Greece, brave Italy
crowed about her victory over
that little nation.
Japan was reported to have
clashed with Russia last week.
Something that Japan has wanted
to do for a long time-but didn't
dare. But today, when Russia has
her hands full in defending her
self against the German invasion,
brave little Japan sneaks in the
back door and strikes from the
rear-which is always the sign of
the coward. Japan had waited un-
til she thought the Red army was
ready to collapse under the Nazl
blows in the western invasion.
If there can ever be any glory
in war the glory shall be placed
not to the credit of those who win
but to the credit of those who
fought bravely even when they
knew their efforts were hopeless.
Just who the final victors will be
when the smoke of battle clears
from the earth we do not know.
But this we know-that when the
roll call of brave is made, Italy,
Germany and Japan will not ap-

Arizona community protest
meeting was called by the minis
ters of the community. They
wanted to stop bathing on Sun
days" A compromise was made
by closing the pool until noon,
Sunday. Then two of the breth-
ren wanted to stop the mixed
bathing" They felt it was wrong
for men and women to be in the
pool at the same time. Said one:
"They should have the men bathe
on one day and the women on an
other" Said another: "Why not
ask the committee in charge OF
the pool to build fence across
the middle of the pool and let the
women bathe in one end and the
men in the other" The two mod
ern members of the group were
of the opinion that the pickets
would be pulled off the fence in
attempts to see on the other side.
One of the brethren said he had
never been to the pool and never
expected to go-that when he and
his wife went out that way to call
they drove past the place as fast
as they could and looked in the
other direction.
But that was fourteen years
ago. We hardly expected to find
that narrow view still existent to-
day. Bathing in the nude isn't a
public practice.
Neither do people take baths In
public. The daily swim for these
soldiers was never intended to be
a public act. And furnishing 22,-
26O bathing suits for swimming
isn't an easy thing to do. And the
45th Division happens to be made
up entirely of men-as are all d.
visions.
Just where the disgrace is to be
attached we haven't been able to
say unless it be in the mind Of
the man who sees disgrace in it.
Starting tomorrow, for two days,
the 45th Division will bathe In
White Rock in the nude-early
morning and at night. Guards
will keep any curious persons
from venturing too near. Not ev-
er Rev. Clayton will be able to
get within a mile of the place.

TWO MEN AND A GOAT


TWO MEN AND A GOAT
You nave heard the expression,
"He drinks like a fish," And the
one about a man being "as drunk
as a goat?" Well, the other day
over in Grand Prairie. two men
and a goat We're arrested for be-
ing intoxicated. The goat, it was
reported, was drunken than the
two men.
Thrown into the jug" the men
sobered up within 4 reasonable
time but the goat was still stag
gering about the place. The d. A.
was pupzzled as to what to do
about the goat. The filing OF
charges against the men was easy.
But the goat-there wasn't any
thing even in the cruelty to AMI
mails laws to cover the case.
1t seems that the two men and
the goat started out on a drinking
spree. Or maybe we should say
the two men did. They thought
that inasmuch as the goat was
keeping company with them it
should be included. They gave
the goat a drink every time they
took one. That meant the goat
got two for one. The men report
ed that the goat seemed to be
eager to participate, once it start
ed.
If anyone knows what to do
with a drunk goat, send word to
the Grand Prairie Police depart
ment.
HIT HITLER
The Lubbock folk erected a
huge likeness of Hitler on the
court house grounds-so that the
citizens who brought pieces of
aluminium could throw them at the
old boy and knock him down
same as you use to throw balls at
the milk bottles at the fair. The
aluminium came flying in and
Adolph was all banged up when
it was over.
THEY ARE STILL WITH US
Beginning tomorrow 22,260 Of
ficers and men of the 45th Divis-
ion will camp ard swim in the
nude at White Rock beach near
Dallas. This division will spend
two days at White Rock enroute
to maneuvers in Louisiana.
When request to swim nude in
the lake was first made, Rev.
Eddie Clayton wrote to the Pres
ident to stop the disgraceful
thing. Said he:
81 am writing your excellency
in regard to the news article pro-
posing to let soldiers swim un-
clothed. 1t would be a disgrace
to Dallas and also the Army TO
allow this to happen. l am ask
ing your excellency, as Command
er in Chief of the Army, to have
this stopped"
