Keeping
Ahead of

By Mary Moore

sored by the War Savings Staff of
the U. S. Treasury Dept, Office of
Education and has been named
"Schools at War"
SAVE-the emphasis is placed on
buying war stamps and bonds. Henry
Morgenthau, Jr., urges students to
cooperate with the Government by
buying war stamps, and says, "War is
costly, but freedom is priceless.
SERVE, means student training in
first aid, home nursing, life saving,
craftsmanship, accident prevention
and news reports on how school can
best serve the nation.
CONSERVE, means collection of
scrap rubber, metal, paper, grease,
and other waste through the schools.
All rubber for raincoats is out for
the duration and manufacturer of UNI
brellas will be curtailed to one third
of last years output Umbrellas will
be simplifed too, they will be uniform
in size and weight and shape, with
different sizes for men and women.
So, if you have an umbrella or rain
coat, hang on to it for the duration!
Alarm clocks will also go off the
market when the present retailers
supply is exhausted Reason is that
alarm clocks use considerable copper
in their mechanisms. Besides all the
skilled watch makers are needed to
turn out time fuses for delayed action
bombs similar to clocks.
While we are conserving and max
ing things do, it is sometimes possible
to salvage those faded linen araperies
which look SO hopeless. Rip them
apart and Sc what the inside looks
like Careful washing in lukewarm
water and plentiful suds may restore
them as good as new. Wash the drap-
cry fabric separate from the lining.
When the pieces have been dried and
pressed, they can be stitched together
again with the bright side of the
fabric showing.

GLAMOR
If you are still in dither about
what to buy for Christmas gifts, there
is nothing more pleasing to a woman
than beauty aids, and no matter
whether it's a luxuriously boxed set
Of her favorite creams and lotions, OF
a tiny vial of her favorite scent she'll
appreciate the tribute to her feminin-
ity. All cosmetic gifts don't run into
mony-there are many attractive
things less than dollar to be found
in drug and dime stores.
1t isn't the outlay of money, but
the thought behind the gift that
counts
Pretty lingerie is the chief reason
most women look forward to Christ
mas. The women doesn't live who
won't thrill to receive feminine slips
gowns, panties on lounging robe
The list of feminine gifts is endless
But when you go shopping know the
sizes you want and save your own
and the clerks nerves. It's smart tc
give useful gifts this year.
Anyone with clever fingers car
fashion the newest accessories out OF
buttons. Buttons are decorative anc
lend glamor. Bobby pins slipped
through two rhinestone buttons make
a cleaning hair ornament. Jewelec
buttons slid onto cheap band rings
make costume jewelry original anc
inexpensive Wear the rings in pairs
Turn large buttons into lapel pins
by slipping corsage pins through the
button shanks. Most popular, how
ever, is making earrings out OF but
tons to match the buttons or clips
worn with dress or suit Pry settings
out of old earrings, add several drops
of plastic cement and press unusual
buttons in place Or stud a pair OF
side combs with buttons. To style 9
distinctive belt or to add detail to 9
handbag just add buttons.
What grand and inexpensive
Christmas gifts you can make!
Gloves follow the trend of the times
and reflect the note of conservation
this year by using less leather anc
more cloth. But flare cuffs and ample
length gloves are pretty popular de
spite conservation of materials.

PANTRY PALAVER

When the milk shortage becomes
acute,-and our Senate investigating
committee reports "our potential
shortage of meat and dairy products
is the most serious and terrible thing
facing the American people today"
ice cream will be the first to go, with
chocolate milk to follow
With meat raticning coming up
there will be an effort to promote
more cheese making, but cheese will
be put on a point system of ratio ming,
because cheese is the most concen-
trated and nutritive of milk products.
1t takes three years for a calf to
reach the age to produce milk and if
we kill off all the young calves now,
the situation will become serious far
too soon.

mold nicely in prepared fruit gelatin
