ouSly, its a knockout item made
with knitted wrist bands for snug
ness. Buttons up the back, has a
round neckline and a pocket to hold
cigarettes, matches and handker-
chief. Best of all, the fabric is
water-repellent. perspiration proof
and stain-reSiStant. and why some
body didn't think of the idea before,
We probably shall never know.
Among the other persona" gifts,
paiamas are listed as a masculine
favorite. There still are silk and
rayon ones to be had, although the
supply may be limited next year.
New favorites are pajamas of
brushed knitted cotton. made like
ski suits. Lounging robes range
from olive drab ones Of rayon and
wool flannel, perfect for the selectee,
to extravagant models OF tiger
spotted velvet or the most luxurious
camels hair. Smoking jackets are
good. if he" is the type, and many
of the newest models are styled like
dinner jackets.
Jackets. if your problem cares for
same. offer a wide field OF oppor-
tunity. Among the newest are
California designed suede ones in
dressier than usual style with four
patch pockets. They're just as
wearable as the old suede jackets,
but much snapper looking. Shirts.
always a safe bet, include such
novel types as dressy ones made OF
challis, a sport fabric. Most men
like them in this wool and rayon
mixture for both town and country.
Practical and sufficiently frivolous
to satisfy the feminine giver are
gift certificates which enable the
recipient to go down and pick out
the hat he wants. The certificates
are inclosed in miniature hat boxes,
along with tiny chapeaux. One OF
the smarter suit manufacturers is
offering gift suit certificate
worked on the same idea. but with
a tiny suit instead of a hat momen-
tarily representing the gift.
In the jewelry line, initial tie
clips. tie chains and cuff links are
featured inexpensively and help
fully. One of the round pocket
knife containers shaped like coin
has a six-year calendar on the
back. a place for initials on the
front. Cigarette cases are good, and
try to get the ones which hold a
full pack. Popular this year are
those leather ones in which you slip
full pack of cigarettes. Come in
regular and king size styles.
And then. of course, there are.
new toiletries for the stronger sex.
These. however. deserve whole
column to themselves, and what's
more, they'll get it.

Dorothy Dix Says >>~
We Cannot Let Misfortune Hang
AS a Milestone About Neck

How many mothers We have
known who neglected their living
children mourning over a dead baby
How many men we know who just
sit down and fold their hands In
idleness when they lose their jobs
and never even try to get another
one. How many Of the seedy men
who hold us up for small loans were
once rich men who lost their for
tunes and never made an effort tC
get on their feet again.
The bitter, frustrated people, the
hopeless, pessimistic grouches; the
weepers and walters; the futile help
less hangers on. those who tell you
their tales of woe and those who
brag about what they used to be
and had, are practically all men ano
women whose present and future
have been mortgaged to their pasts
They never looked forward. They
always looked back And that was
fatal, because remembering old sor-
rows takes all the hope and strength
and courage out of us and turns our
very bones to water. For no man
can say with any assurance that
this grief that has once befallen me
will not befell me again.
1t is only by keeping ourselves
popped up with faith that tomorrow
is going to bring us something that
is worth struggling for that repays
us for all the toll and sweat and
heartbreak of today. Otherwise
ambition would be dead. effort use
less. and there would be no mean
ing and purpose in life. Nothing to
fight for.
For it is true that the only way
we can face life is by turning our
backs on it.
Evening star., 1941-12-05

Somebody who was philosopher
as well as a wit said that the only
way we can face life is by turning
our backs on it. That Is a bit OF
wisdom that We should all bear in
mind when the whole world seems
a blackout and we feel lost and be-
wildered like little children wander
ing in the dark, not knowing where
we are going or what evil is to be-
fall us. So many terrible things
have happened. So many more ter
rible things threaten us that we
have lost hope and courage.
So now the time has come when
we must turn our backs upon the
past and forget it, if we are to have
the strength and vision to face the
future and make something OF 1t.
The old way of life has gone, never
to return. Never again will any Of
ln now living see the old, pleasant,
easy. secure world in which we once
lived. What the new one will be
We cannot even imagine, but our
nostalgia for the old one will not
bring it back. We will only wear
ourselves out and waste our ener-
gies in fruitless weeping for what
is gone.
And if this is true of the great
world, it is equally true of the lit
tie private worlds in which each OF
us live and have our being. None of
us is so fortunate as not to have
had sorrow knock at our doors.
Death has robbed us of those who
made the sunshine of our days,
Those we loved and trusted have
betrayed us. We have lost our for
tunes and known the hard face of
poverty. Our backs are bent and
our hands calloused by toll. We
have supped with grief and our
drink has been tears.
That is the common human ex-
perience, and whether it makes us
or breaks us depends upon our
selves. We can let our misfortunes
become a milestone around our necks
that pull us down into the abyss of
hopeless failure and misery. or we
can build of them steps on which
we climb up to success and hap
piness.

Bravo for the new Silhouette
shaped by this long, torso-moldlng
top. low waistline and full, swirling
skirt! If you are out to get the
world by the tail you simply must
have one of these dirndl frocks-
and it is typical of the young spirit
of the times that you'll probably
be your own dressmaker and turn
out this style perfectly for yourself. /.
Pattern No. l479-B offers nothing
fancy-merelv that perfect button
front top with its immaculate, snowy
white collar. short sleeves set in with
a smooth straight shoulder line and
a skirt gathered on at slinkily low
waist
You'll never 60. wrong with this
dress, a day-long standby which will
help you along gracefully in a
school, business or social career.
Rely on its charm to make you out
standing in any crowd-conspicu-
ously smart for every occasion.
It's dress for stiff fabrics, faille,
taffeta or MORE. Or if you prefer
flaming colors. make 1t In a soft

Teach Baby

Patient Guidance
OF the Parents
Indispensable
By Leffice Lee Street,

By Lefhce Lee Street,
If Z mother complains that her
child has not acquired some simple
ability. such as learning to dress
himself, rs quickly as she thinks
he should have, she might ask her
self if she has taken the time to
teach her youngster this skill.
A mothers role is q varied one;
she Is comforter, adviser, protector
and teacher. Each day she uncon-
sciously assumes the guise Of the
latter, guiding the small, unknow-
ing fingers. feet and minds OF her
children toward good and useful
habits.
II a mother is to enact her role
as teacher to maximum efficiency
she must give of her time and
thought.
1t is much easier and speedier
for her to dress her 2-year-old
herself than to watch him as he
fumbles with sleeves and socks. II
she has a great deal to do she may
think that the precious moments
that are ticking away are being
wasted, but in truth they are not
Instead, they are being wisely util-
lied because in order to learn any
skill we must all of US. adults anc
children alike. practice the bes1
method of doing it over and over
again before we attain success.
When a youngster is about
years old he is very apt to show E
decided desire to dress himself, anc
his attempts must be encouraged anc
he must be allowed time in which
to try, If he is to learn If a chile
is not able to dress and undress
himself quickly and eficiently when
he is older his mother or nurse are
entirely to blame.
Undressing is easier than dressing
so the 2-year-old may start his
lesson with this duty first. At the
same time he may be taught the
habit of tidiness by being told tc
put away his own small garments
after he takes them off. Otherwise
he may conceivably grow older with
the false idea that others shoulc
and will straighten up after him.
The next easiest step for the baby
to tackle is TO select armholes anc
to put his feet through his under
panties Under clothes are easier tc
put on than are shirts, trousers OF
dresses.
