One way to enjoy housework-- wear Q pretty frockl Pattern 440 by Claire Tilden gives you that morning -fresh look by such details as the cleverly notched neckline, the bodice panel of the same width.

The skirt is bias also =. both in front and in back, which sims down your hipline considera- bly.

 The business girl may have to put down somebody else's ideas from nine to five, but when 1t comes to the clothes she wears, !t's her turn to dictate.
 That seems to be the slogan of several outstanding houses now- adays. They are featuring dress es, suits and blouses designed eS- pecially for Uncle Sam's 100000 odd working nieces. So shopping may be easier this fall for the girl who's doing her part for defense by stepping up efficiency in her own job.
 You can begin being more ef- ficient by getting better work out of your wardrobe.
 Here's a very simple key to inc proving your wardrobe. Just look at 1t. Write down on paper what you need and what you have. Then go to your closet and see how many of last years things are in good

 Answer The youth should have the benefit of the opinion and ad- vice of a physician who speclalizes in endocrinology (duckless gland disturbances) and @ psychiatrist (specialist in mental disturbances). Such treatment, if taken in time and pursued through the develop mental period may correct the ten- dency. In every individual there are both masculine and feminine hormones, and the degree of viril- ity or femininity depends on the preponderance of the one hormone over the other.

You gee, tho standards of feminine beauty genecS ally are lowered by the half-hearte efforts which some members of n1N glx put into their regular beAMea routines. Now, if you men wOuA cooperate and boycott those womezk why, then, everyone and Wut man alike stands to gain.
 How about giving it q trialf Na dateg--no lunches, no dinners, Ele movies, no theater and no dance ing-with any girl:
 Who Is continuously over weight. The problem of avoiding ayoirdupois (except in medAcA caseS) Is simply one of taking thl time and efRort to eat properla and exercise regularly. There art literally scores Of safe and SAns dAets and exercises which. will take extra poundage of any wonav who makes the effort.

If she can't afford to W to the beauty salon, she can, witA extra time, achieve the same Tea suits ct home. TIT WILL MAKE
