Ortonville, Minn.-At the window
is Ronald Randall, 15-year-old, part
ing with rs silver dollars, a rather
rare coin in the middle west, in ex-
change for a Defense Bond. Posi-
master John G. G. Gowan is handing
over the bond. Every time Ronald's
father took in one of the silver dol
lars as proprietor of a large dance
pavilion he kept the coin and later
turned it over to his son In payment
for work. The IS silver dollars rep
resent the savings of the youth since
he was six years old.

Pressing Silk

White silk, as every housewife
knows, has a marked tendency to
turn yellow. This yellow frequently
comes about through pressing the
silk with a too hot iron. But, while
silk is susceptible to heat, it is less
susceptible to moist heat. So, at
professional laundries silks are
pressed with steam irons, and
pressed so lightly and so quickly
that the garment has no oppor-
tunity to become overheated and
turn color.
However, if you iron your white
silk blouses and lingerie at home
it is recommended that your iron
never be hotter than 300 degrees
Fahrenheit. In fact, for complete
insurance it is better to have your
iron as much less than this 300 de-
grees as you can have it and still
remove the wrinkles.

fabrics with touches of navy blue in
the trimming. Buttons are often in
the shape of small anchors or stars,
to give a thoroughly nautical at
mosphere.
The reason our sailor boys always
look so snappy is because they are
required to wash their uniforms
often. and there is hint in that
fact for the women who are going
to wear sailor-inspired clothes this
spring. To be smart and Swagger
looking, clothes should always be
clean. Most OF them will take
laundering with the same ease as
the uniforms the Navy men wear.
Certainly the white collars and the
white dresses will need frequent
washing They can't take the kind
of treatment that the sailors give
their white duck uniforms. but
gentle immersion in mild, lukewarm
suds will give them a snowy white
ness that reflects credit on the
wearer and on the Navy, which
inspired the mode.

Navy Sets Style for
Spring Fashions

The United States Navy is big
influence in feminine styles this
spring. Navy blue hats, coats, dresses
and accessories are the rage, all Of
them trimmed with sparkling in
sigma in gold or silver braid and
stitching. Broad sailor collars, Of
the mildly blouse type, are orna-
menting many of the coats and
dresses. On the daintier afternoon
frocks these are often made of the
sheerest, crispest organdie. giving
the gowns a jauntiness that the
sailor attains by the saucy tilt of his
hat.
Navy fashions are bound to be
popular with the ladies, not only
because of their pride in the Navy,
but also because these fashions
f1atter the face and figure. Styles
have been developed for Southern
and for Northern wear, just as the
Navy issues two types of uniforms
for Jack Tar. The warm climate
modes are usually created in white

Clothing
Overheatine Makes
Child Susceptible
To Severe Colds
By Leffice Lee Street,

For the sake of drawing desCrip-
tive picture, let us imagine that
three days ago it was chilly, with a
sharp wind blowing. So, Bobby
mother bundled him up we'll in his
heavy snow suit, complete with nit
tens, scarf and heavy cap, before
she shooed him outside to play.
The next day the sun beamed SO
benignly that the world steamed
with muggy warmth. Bobby's mother
had been told that once she put
Bobby into his snow suit she must
not change. One thing that gave
children colds, she had heard. was
being switched around from heavy
to light clothing. So Bobby was
stuffed into his winter clothes and
out he went TO play, red as beet
in his little face and with the per-
spiration running of his nose.
Next day he was listless and
sneezing, and the day after that he
was in bed with a cold.
When a child oyer-perspires, he
is likely to take cold unless his
damp clothes are removed and he
is cooled off gradually, out Of q
draught. Infants are no exception
a baby can catch a cold just lying
in his little bed if he is too hot
If the baby's head and neck are
damp, you can be sure that he is too
warmly covered.
The healthiest child is more
susceptible to colds than an adult is
Infants take cold very readily, and
for this reason an adult with cold
should never be allowed in the baby s
room. If the mother or nurse has
cold, she should wear gauze mask
while she is attending the baby.
No one should ever kiss an infant
on the face, nor should any child
ever be kissed on the lips.
If more mothers would keep their
children away from school, and not
permit them to play with other chill
dren, at the very first sign of sniff
fle, many colds would be prevented
among every one, both children anC
adults.
The tiny infant should be accus.
toned TO an airing and TO a COO
room. In fact, his room should bt

Here's a new pattern that gives
fresh interest to your favorite day
time style-the buttoned-to-hem
dress with narrow notched collar.
Note the clever detailing in the
small back view-that stitched panel
breaking into fulness just where it
does most for slimness. See the
clean-cut perfection with which the
dress melts into your waistline, and
how the lines of stitching emphasize
the up-and- down effect. And to
give an added flip of charm, there's
a pocket posed on the sleeves, as
well as two in the front!

Queries on Clothes
Tails Require Topcoat and Hat
OF Corresponding Formally
Br Kay CaIdtpeH and Alden Harrison

Dear Miss Caldwell and Mr.. Har-
rison:
Will you kindly advise me con-
cerning a question Of formal dress?
am attending a college glee
club concert and dance at a large
hotel. plan to wear tails instead
of a tux, but I'm wondering about
the type of hat and topcoat. Is it
proper to wear a brown hat and
coat, or must everything be of a
strictly formal nature? In that
case, would the tux be more SEN
sible?
Following the dance, I am spend
ing the week end at my friend S
home. Would it be proper for me to
give her mother an informal gift
before or after my visit? This girl
and I are informally engaged.
Thank you for your considera-
ton. A. l..
In these days you can wear q
tuxedo or dinner coat almost any
where. Therefore if you deliberate
ly choose to wear a tail coat, you
should go whole hog" and do ii
right. And that certainly rules out
a brown hat and topcoat.
The best hat to wear with full
dress is the collapsible opera hat
which may also be worn with a tux
edo if you really want to be fancy
The overcoat for tails should be
black or midnight blue and "dressy
in cut. Your shoes should be black
patent leather pumps or oxfords.
In many places you could get
away with any dark overcoat and
with a dark Homburg hat. But
they really aren't correct. How
ever, these accessories are right for
dinner coat.
In fact, you can wear any top
coat and hat with a tuxedo, al
though dark coats naturally look
better than camePs hair or natural
covert, and a Homburg hat is better
than snap brim.
1t would not only be proper but
also very nice for you to give the
girls mother a gift during or after
your visit. You should also write
the mother a breadandbutter let
ter after you get home, even though
you write similar letter to the girl
herself.

be appropriate to wear for day

If you will have an opportunity

I'm a senior in high school, and
I have a sister who is sophomore
in college. She insists that she
should have a larger clothes allow
ance than I get, and my mother
agrees with her. Don't you think
this is unfair? BETTY.
No, Betty, we don't. The average
college girl needs a larger wardrobe
than her high school sister, simply
because most colleges are dressier
than high schools, and the college
girl has a fuller and more varied
program of activities. Also, there's
more pressure to keep up with class
mates or sorority sisters in the
matter of clothes.
We think you'll agree with this
statement as soon as you get to
college yourself.
