strange sort of plea for a col

Yet, I'm making ii for me and
for all my kind, we who speak
to you every day, trying TO give
you the dope, trying to buck
you up.
And perhaps you've thought
for all these years back they've
just been words. Or perhaps
not thought much about what
lay behind them at all. Just
accepted them. Never realized
that there were men and women
behind them; men and women
like yourselves, tired, bewildered.
discouraged, wondering desper-
ately what they could say.
How Can We Help7
But we are just weak and con-
fused men and women.
Plenty of news at our finger
tips, plenty of pity in our hearts.
But how could we pass 1t on to
you? How can we help you in
these dreadful days? I don't
know.
And so today I'm broadcasting

Outdoor Cir
Will Cheer
This Outfit

COCK YOUR ear q little TO
this side, please. There's news
in the wind about a bundle for
budgets, a three-piece sun set
for summer sirens.
Starting with the funda-
mentals, there's a low-backed
overall-type shortie, with a
drawstring circlet mid-bra. Add
the skirt for sun-back dress.
Add the jacket for a respectable
street appearance. Paper-doll
tricks in the flesh.
CAN YOU match this outfit
for practically? OF course, we
are assuming that you like to
turn your lily-white skin TO
healthy chocolate moreover,
that you like to quick-change
your garb from one look to
another.
Still more practical is the
fact that you won't bemoan the
soaking of this inexpensive suit
when the weather does a shine
to-showers act in nothing flat.
And that is bound to occur in
the life of the outdoor gals
many times a summer.
JUST TO prove how fashions
are born or borrowed. we're
telling the story about the ex-
hibit at the Chicago Art Insti-
tute. Designed and made by
the students there, 1912 pa

The transformation in her voice

which she sings lyric soprano to

drew the praise OF music critic,

superb repose with which the artist
stood on The bare stage and define

That she sang in her natural con-

voices which she uses these days
to express herself in song.
Miss Mo.en is rated as one OF
