of any child.
Match il up with a peasant
blouse of wolfe and beam with
parental pride. Dress your little
tomboy in a white piqus sun
suit. which Is dolled up by q
striped seersucker pinafore, con-
servatively ruffled. Said pima

IF YOUR little tyke takes to
water like a duck. equip her
with a semi-swim suit, which
doubles for playtimer. It's q

white leaf figure throughout.
The skirt flares out saucfly,

EVERY DAY the war involves
another unheard-of spot In this
world OF ours. And what geog-
raphy you can remember from
school days doesn't help much
-. just take a current events
4 to realize that.
Yet you feel like a numbskull
when some one dashes of these
tongue-twisting names In a war
discussion and you can't even
recognize them, let alone spell
them. To keep yourself informed
from day to day Is a job in itself,
without memorizing the encyclo-
pedia.
Particularly handy among the
maps is the colored cardboard
sphere pictured. When collapsed.
the sphere consists Of two sec
lions, which fit, one upon the

other, In crosswise fashion. To
keep them securely together,
there Is a disc that is attached
at the bottom and another at
the top.
Two quarters of the sphere
are devoted TO the east and west
hemispheres, while the other two
show the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans. Capital cities, highly
populated towns. military roads,
steamship and airline distances
and principal railroads are all
included.
It's definitely a decorative lit
tie gadget for the 25c price. And
since IL costs so little, you won't
suffer Qualms about discarding il
after the postwar map changes
are made. For shopping infor-
nation, call Cherry $500, line

Breakfast

Breakfast Is the most neg

After IL or so hours without

II would be a much better

Have an adequate lunch and
around 3 or 4 o'clock In the aft
ernoon take FIVE minutes out for
q cup OF hot tea. glass Of milk
or a cold fruit drink.
For Dinner
Dinner is such q flexible meal
that II can make the difference
between your gain or loss In

regular meal.
II you are too thin, make Il

III you are overweight, cut
down TO less Galleries than you
need for energy by trimming of
the unnecessary foods fats,
starches and the combination of
the two. And cut out the rich
desserts.
II you find you work better
for taking between-meal snackS
in the morning and afternoon,
count these calories In the days

To reduce. cut down on your
lunch and dinner. To gain, make
the between-meal snacks richer
and leave the trimmings on your
other two meals.
One thing about II, this plan
OF spacing your food intakes
during the day does tend TO pre-
vent overfatigue.

London We'll on

Despite wartime rationing {.
the British housewife lives in
shoppers paradise compared
with the German hausfrau.
Coming after three years in
wartime Germany. he says &.
one Is struck by differences.
The most obvious Is that Of
bomb damage Berlin has
only slight bomb scars yet
the morale in London far over
shadows that Of the German
capital.
In London there are enough
buses and taxis left TO create a
fair-sized traffic jam at rush
hour. In Berlin, traffic jams are
as extinct as coffee.
A Shopping Tour
Berliners, he adds, are forced
10 assume they can't get any,
thing at all and then he
went shopping with a British
suburban housewife. who made
the following purchases:
At the bakery she bought a
loaf Of bread and a half-pound
fruit cake, without a ration
card. In Berlin she would have
had TO present her card, and II
she bought a cake il would have
meant that she would have TO do
without bread another day.
Spring Greens
Az the grocery there was q
handsome array of lettuce,
spring green's. beets, leeks, cauli-
flower and radishes. She had
TO wait in line a few minutes for
tomatoes. because each customer
was being allowed only half a
pound.
In Berlin she would have had
to wait for hours for the vege-
tables TO arrive and then scrarn-
bic with scores of other women.
II she had been late. she would
have gotten none.
His British shopper bought
two half-pound cans Of coffee.
In Germany she would have
needed a bootlegeer to get real
coffee and would have had to
pay $32 a pound.
. No Shoeleees
Mr.. Grigg was delightfully."-
surprised to find he could get
all the shoelaces he wanted in
London they disappeared q
year ago from German shops
and Berliners now offer 81 a
pair for them.
A special permit Is needed in
Berlin to buy darning thread,
shaving cream and leather-soled
shoes. In London they are not
even rationed.

In London, shops are filed
