 Like any slip cover, it's easy to make and fit the pin-on way, even if your chair has curves and curli- cues.
 The Welting that trims the seams is also easy to sew on. In color that matches a color in the fabric, it looks smart, professional!
 To start the cover, remove cush- ions and smooth fabric over chair, starting at top-back ard continu- ing to edge of seat. Pin down every 3 inches where seams will be and cut 112 inches outside pins for seams.
 Other sections you fit one at a time the same Way-front, sides, arms and back. Where the fabric punches at curves, take darts as in our diagram. Then pine pieces to- gether and remove cover.
 The felting is inserted from the right side and stitched in the seam The deep gathered founce goes on last of all

WOMAN'S REALM=
SILK SAWAR CASUALTY :. WOOL HAS ENLISTED, SO... King Cotton Commands Fashion Front
ONE DESIGNER MAKES INGENIOUS USE OF HANDSOME COTTON UPHOLSTERY FABRICS IN COMPLETE WARDROBE

particularly from beautifully tex tured cotton weaves. Most of them are washable, many look like wool, some appear and feel like much more interesting stuff than average wools of the same price range.
 The designer wore ore of her dinner gowns to a recent Broadway opening, attracting a good deal of attention from faShionables. The gown was cut from a smoky mauve cotton homespun, trimmed with copper-colored metal cloth.
 She has a sage green cotton toweling afternoon dress with velve- teen sash ending in twin pockets. Under her mink coat, it looks per- fectly right Her black toWeing two- piece suit, more comfortable than the sheer wools often used for this kind of spring summer costume, goes to the laundry regularly. So does her black cotton homespun suit
 For early spring and fall, she has brick red coat, of heavy honey ccmb-teXtured cotton upholstery cloth, which is soft, warm, chic. 1t is inner-lined with cotton, lined with quilted black cotton velveteen, worn with velveteen high hat. THERE'S GLAMOR
 IN THE STYLING
 That's cotton supp.ementing both wool and silk, and doing it spec f1pIIl1 rly---ir Y1 fy-rfS. nf rlnfhnS where cotton never was before. Par ticularly ingenious is the new use of cotton upholesry and drapery fab rims
 In the past, the cotton industry didn't bother much to produce in- teresting Weaves. Last year the Cotton Textile Institute and certain individual houses started big push for cotton styling. Because of that, the average woman anywhere in America this bring and summer can and undoubtedly will buy and wear cotton ready-to-Wear with surpris- ing style value.
 Therell be pique chambrays, and seersuckers with pique stripe, both made by new weaving processes. They will appear in the afternoon, on city streets and at parties as we'll as in the market. Cotton play clothes and work clothes will be everywhere. One house now manu- factures a Tina Lesser beach robe of upholstery cotton. Another pro- duces dirndls inspired by Guatama- Ian costumes, trimmed with haId- made cotton embroidery Custom made ladies will wear Sally Victor's striking cotton turbans of pique as well as knitted cottons. Ard every woman will wear light cotton dancing clothes accenting cotton lace trimmings.

 Lipstick shoul be applied on dry lips, left unmoistened for a moment, then plotted with tissue. If applied on damp lips or left un- plotted, it will be off the moment the lips are moistened, Nail polish ing also improves in lasting effect by getting little extra time. If you hold your hands perfectly still for ten minutes and give the polish a chance to harden thoroughly, your manicure will stay in good order for several days longer.

QUIET MANNER
 WORKS WONDERS

It is her quiet, unruffled man her that makes it possible for a houseful Of persons of varying ages, interests, and personalities to live together in comparative peace and harmony.
 And it is her quiet manner that takes the family through many a trying time, when nerves are on edge.
 Any group that must work to- gether in harmony needs that type of woman. So it is a mistake for women to try to cover up their femininity the minute they get into uniform If they can't over come the temptation to do so, they ought to leave the uniforms to men.
