climax in the 1905 when pads and cushions
were used to bolster up the wave to make a
woman's head look as big as a watermelon.
On top of that the ladies of the gay 'ninetes
used to wear hats as large as cartwheels,
loaded with ostrich plumes
The modern mademoisee is more practi-
cal and does not wear cartwheels on top of
her pompadour. If she did she wouldn't have
chance in the rush hour. AS a matter of
fact. many of the pompadour girls have dis
carded hats entirely. But if they really want
to match their sisters of the past century,
they can have their pompadours built high
and big enough to hold lipstick, comb and a
compact They call it the Purse Pompa-
dour. If they build them any bigger it may
become the Over-Night-Bag Pompadour.
Other pompadour girls might wish to let
their patriotism burst out in their hair-do
Patriotic blond girls can have their hair
tinted light blue. On top of this tinted
hair they can tuck red and white soldiers
fatigue cap forming a red, white and blue
pattern that should gladden. the hearts of
Senators as well as of the boys in military
camps.
Other fashionable women, very patriotic
toe, can have single strand of hair smack
in the center of the pompadour dyed white.
They call this one the White Wing of Cour-
age" Don't ask why. Anyway, the effect
is dazzling. It would come in handy in a
blackout to prevent collisions between per-
fectly innocent citizens and patriotic pompa-
dours.
It's quite natural. too that other coiffures
should show signs of sympathies for the Pan
American cause. the campaign in North
Africa. and the "Help-for- Britain" move
ment.
A fresh flower rakishly tucked over one
ear in ha'T-do of a smooth sweep off the
brow gives the Brooklyn girl that Latin
American feeling. And a hairdress that
initiates the Sarik, the headgear of the Arabs,
makes female sheik out of cowgirl.
The real Sarik consists of a white sheet
placed by the Arab over his head and
crowned by a small turban. the folds Of the
sheet falling over the mans shoulders. This
headgear is perfectly initiated by the modern
hair-do. The hair is draped on top into a

knot while the rest of the hair is permitted to
hang loosely in the back and on the sides.
Outfitted with this contraption any Amazon
disposed damsel could join the British forces
in North Africa where the idea for the couture
came from.
A hair bun in the form of round skein
of wool on the side of the head and the bun
pierced with knitting needles may not look ex-
actly attractive on woman's head, but that's

would complete the outfit.
On the more sensible side-and timely to
lis the Budget Couture. designed for girl
who have neither too much money nor to
much time to keep up with all these fangle
tangle styles.
This Budget or Economy hair design help
girls to dress their hair without the aid an
the expense of a beautician. All they nee
to buy is a braided hair-piece and a fe,
hair pins. With a few deft movement,
rolling the hair-piece here and placing tn
pins there, they change from one hal
style to another in a jiffy.
The basic hair-do of the Budget Golf
fure is simple hair comb that can be
worn without the hair piece. BY placing
the hair piece at the nape of her neck the
girl creates another hair-do. The more
imaginative women form their initials that
way. Or, the girl can place the braid in
ring around her head and go Tyrolean.
Wonders can be done with artificial
braid 1t can be placed anywhere on the
head to suit the individual taste and to
create any style-from the sensible to the
silly.
To be more independent of the beau
tician and do the whole works with their
own pretty fingers thrifty girls can set
their own permanents even though their
pretty fingers may be all thumbs. All
they need is so called equal tension
permanent wave invented by an expert
in little New York East Side beauty
salon.
OF course, the girls have to buy good
curl-brush to keep their hair in trim con-
dtion. After all, no woman can get away
without contributing something to the mil
lions of dollars spent every year in the
United States for their hair II Won think
that your share is too large remember
that Napoleon's Josephine paid 5000 900 in
a single year for the upkeep of her Golf
fure and the cosmetics that went with it.
All these coiffures are 'bearable" to
the wearers and to the onlookers. But we
haven't mentioned yet the Scallop and the
Zebra hair styles
The Scallop hair-do is a bang of curls
flat against the forehead and must match

With the rapid changes of style, variety also has

And If you multiply the

with the natural dark strands
give not only a dazzling but
a definitely dizzy effect.
Any husband whose wife in

mental cruelty.

A government spokesman said
some Of the prisoners had crossed

German commercial and financial
support for continuing the war as

The fact that 35 delegates viii!

strategy may well be regarded as
OF more vital significance than plans

If the war becomes a test Of

Italy must arrange to coordinate
their strength in these fields.
Germany is certain to play the
