By wide World. HOLLYWOOD.
Movie studio employees sometimes

This was revealed through an all

by the Motion Pictures Committee
for Hollywood to sign up every f1lm
worker on 10 per cent OF their salary
for the purchase Of War savings

Bond slogans created for studio
posters by bookkeepers, sign paint

vertising men, have been sent to

he's got the industry's stocking busi-

In the intervening years he says
he's introduced the "hombre" stock
ing different shades front and
back, the elastic top, the sandal
stocking, and his favorite, the stow

Experience in unusual stocking
modes will come in handy during

ing shades limited to four and tex
ture getting heavier. Sally Stenog-

of the girls will be wanting some
thing to pep up their hose.
WHY'S says it's like this:
Women are satisfied with just
the usual hosiery when it's the two
or three thread variety. But when it
gets thicker they'll want something
fancy-clocks, do-dads. anything to
avoid the drab, heavy stocking with
