New Orleans CUP)-The average urban dweller has an "odditorium" in his back yard and doesn't know it, according to pr. Francis H. Will son, associated professor at Tulane University.
 For instance. according to Dr. Wilson, the average back yard is a zoon with:
 l. Grasshoppers that 'hear with their legs"
 2. The grub worm, which crawls on its back.
 3. The flat worm, whose head can be divided into five pieces.
 4. The chameleon, which changes color.

 If you haven't yet tried those cosmetic stockings-now is your time. For there's some question about whether firms making them for the first time this summer will be able to do so again next sum- mer under war restrictions 7. and some of the most interesting kinds are just coming up now.
 There is new cream kind from a London house-very easy to apply, very smooth. And a new milky kind from a well known Fifth Avenue house-very rich brown, real-stock- ing color, also on 8 jffy.
 TWO SCHOOLS OF
 THOUGHT ON DE-FUZZING
 Once you doff your stockings you may decide to go without them well though Indian Summer, may be into fall, especially if forthcom- ing stockings are as heavy as some predict they'll be. Or you may choose the latest suggestion for sports and casual work and play oc- casions-socks of ankle-length or knee length.
 In any case, you surely need to do a good job of de-fuzzing your legs right now. There are two schools of air-removers. I've told you about the razor school. Its ad- herents insist the hair grows back >no faster, stiffer or thicker than 1t grew before shaving. Then, there are the epilators. They believe that this trick, which removes the hair in the small sac at it's under-skin end, discourages growing back.
 There's. one thing about epila- tion-hair removed thus takes longer to grow back than shaved hair takes because you get more of the hair off. If you have to shave legs weekly, an epilation should do for several weeks.
 Most good salons now do the epilations and sell you the wax for home use.
 One good method and very good quality wax is used by Czech pharmacist who transferred her beauty establishment from the Rue de La Paix to New York about a year ago. She is extremely careful and gentle in her work, and thor ough. She sells the wax, which she compounds in her own laboratory, in a little pan-all ready to use. And to reuse, by the way, for you can do that, too, at least five or six times.
 The yellow, slightly piney stuff is put over low flame till it melts completely. is cooled to honey thickness, is applied to the leg with spatula or knife. It cools there in about a minute and is dipped off in one quick stroke. Off comes the hair also, with the sacs. A bit of cream or lotion to clcse the pores and your skin is beautifully smooth.

certainly is the lead indicated by his general strength. South won and led a diamond. Farber went up with the king-a very necessary play overlooked by many players. Dunn my has no side entry, so that his only chance to make the diamond suit is to hold up the ace until it is solid. If he is allowed to f1nesse and force out East's queen, he will win four tricks.
 Declarer decided to let the dia- mond king hold, as his only chance. Farber continued with the seven of hearts. South took out the third trump, then led the second diamond for finesse. When East produced the queen and led back the club queen. It was curtains. Declarer won only six tricks.

WE. THE WOMEN
-WE, THE WOMEN BEST YEARS" ARE HARD FOR MARYS OF ALL AGES

For the young married women are having their homes broken up and seeing their husbands go off to war.
 If she were fifty, she would still think so-for she would probably have son to worry about.
 And if she were really old she would be thinking, T had always looked forward to my last years be- ing peaceful, unworried ones. Now I may never live to see peace EVERYBODY THINKS
 NOW IS WORST TIME
 And so it goes. Each person thinks, "The war couldn't have come at 8 worse time for me. These would have been my best and hap piest years"
 But that is because war, interrupt ing the routine of our lives as it does and spelling our plans, makes the routine and plans of our lives look more wonderful than they ever looked before they had to be aban- doned.
 The war is running the best years" of all our lives. And the pity is that most of the "Marys" among us didn't realize they were our best years until we saw them threatened.

QUININE AND THE EXPECTANT
 MOTHER

Tn the British Medical Journal a physician practicing in Southern Rhodesia stated that expectant mothers he had treated with quinine as a phophylactic against malaria, had remarkably easy and quick con- finements.
 In a review of colonial medi- cine published in Paris in 1887 Drs Joyeux and Slice asset that preg- nancy is not a a-indication to treatment with quinine.
 Many other medical authorities report from their experience that quinine, far from being an abortifa- cient, aS it has been popularly re- garded, is not capable of causing onset of labor, but that 1t does

these events. Indeed, a certain
amount of prideful optimism is
a good thing, for it breeds conf
dence. At the same time, many
observers have the uneasy feel
ing that our wings of hope have
carried us too high, and that If
we encounter harsh adversely we
are going to get a nasty fall.
The recording of propitious
signs in this column is pleasant
duty, but a war analyst would fail
in his trust if he shirked the un-
comfortable task of giving the
other side of the picture. There
fore, lest we become overconfl-
dent, or too much given to wish
full thinking, we shall be wise to
check up to see just how matters
stand.
First off, while it is true that
the Russians have given Hitler a
terrific lacing this past winter,
and undoubtedly have hurt him
badly, it is equally true that he
seems a long way from being
knocked out. He is still powerful
still the master of one Of the
most perfect fighting machines
ever created.
Allies Face Heavy Blows.
Because of that, and because
the holocaust of the next six
months or so in Eastern Europe
and the Middle East is likely to
determine the course of the whole
war, the Nazi chief is going to
strike some mighty blows. 1t will
be strange if some of those blows
don't hurt the Allies badly. When
a man is desperate he is the most
dangerous, and Der Fuehrer Is
desperate.
The Russo-German conflict
isn't the only place where the
Evening star., 1942-04-04
This Changing World
Turkey Makes Clear to U. S. and Britain
Her Terms for Fighting Germany

Turkey will do when Hitler be-
gins his much awaited offensive
in the Eastern Mediterranean.
Turkeys policies are determined
by the President Of the republic
and the national assembly. All
he will be called on to do II war
breaks out close to Turkeys
frontiers will be to advise the
government about the army's
ability to fight. But he is frank
in saying that unless much more
war material reaches Turkey, he
will be compelled to advise his
government against cooperation
with the United Nations in the
Near East.
Nazi propaganda, which has
singled out the Russians as
Turkeys most dangerous enemies,
has made no impression on the
mind of the Turkish commander
in chief. He is not afraid Of the
Russian bear, but he is reluctant
to plunge his country into the
fray without reasonable amount
of mechanical war material and
adequate aviation.
Planes Needed Most.
Large consignments of planes,
tanks and artillery have reached
the Near East in the last few
months, but only a small portion
of these have found their way
into Turkey, according to
Marshal Fevzi. The British are
Justly concerned over the pos
sibirty Of an an-out Axis often
sive from the Greek Islands,
Crete and Libya. Hence the
British are reported to be con-
centrating all their available war
material in that area, and only
some overflow is going to Turkey,
either through the Dardanelles
or across the Syrian and Iraq
border.
While the Turkish high COM
mand does not seem to lay too
much stress on tanks and
armored cars, it insists that
Turkey must have a large num-
ber of planes. The army lacks
them. 1t has only a few hum
dred modern planes.
Marshal Fevzi, while realizing
that the British Army in Egypt

Of the Greeks and recognition Of
the new Turkey by the Allies.
Once more he is preparing the
army to fight If fighting is in
evitable. Marshal Fevzi has been
the object of more batteries and
courteous treatment by the Nazi
representatives at Ankara than
President Ismet Inonu himself.
But the deeply religious and ma
tionalistic field marshal is i'm
pervious to flattery or bribery.

the same light as his deceased
chief and close friend, the Ghazi.
would have done 1t.
Expects Allies to Win.
Turkey, he says without mine
ing words, must be on the side Of
the belligerents most likely to
win. He does not conceal his
belief that ultimately the United
Nations will triumph. Hence his
personal inclination to play ball
with the United States and Great
Britain, despite certain risks to
Turkeys temporary welfare. But
he does not believe, according to
what he has been telling repre-
sentatives of America and
Britain, in imperiling his coun-
r try without definite and active
support from our side.
He repeats the words Hitler's
Ambassador, Franz Won Papen,
has been telling him: Look at
Yugoslavia." And he amplifies
this by pointing out that neither
during the Nazi invasion Of
Yugoslavia nor while Gen. Draja
Mikailovic, at the head of some
10000 guerrillas, has been har-
assing the Axis forces from his
mountain strongholds, have the
Serbs received any assistance
except kind words of encourage
ment and praise for their mill
tary virtues. These, he says
bluntly. are not sufficient to de-
feat Hitler's motorized divisions
and air force.
Marshal Fevzi is determined
that his country shall not suffer
the fate Of Yugoslavia and
Greece because the United Ma
tons are too slow In preparing.
The cagey field marshal has not
committed himself as to what
