it is her fight Shes just sitting the sidenes shv

when glass flies.
Civilian Defense experts point
out that fact and ask why not
cross both bridges while you're at
it2
A technician who advises OCD
about this, out Of experience un-
der bombs in England, tells me he'd
prefer to see housewife use an old
quilt-and use 1t for adequate pro-
tection-than to see her hitch up q
curtain that won't shut out frag-
ments. Flying glass, his expert
points out, accounts for about eighty
per cent of air raid injuries. Di-
rect hits are not the widespread
danger--it,s blast blown bits, espe-
cially bits OF glass.
SPLINTER-PROOFS
ARE ESSENTIAL
Therefore he applauds new
splinter proof, no-light, blackout
pad which Is made like quilted
comfortable and costs less. It's
padded inside with solid black,
guaranteed to be Opaque. Inside,
it's white, scarcely noticeable
even when it's up. 1t can be used
with window open for ventilation,
won't run If rained on, and Is real
ly splinter proof.
Five loops at the top are hooked
over pegs driven into the wall
well beyond the window frame,
and two lower-corner loops slip
over pegs placed below the win
COW. The pegs come with the
pad, which Is available in two
sizes, for large and small win
dows. The pad Is hooked on--in
two minutes during blackouts
Other times, 1t is taken Off, rolled
up like a beach mat, kept anywhere.
You can make the same arrange
ment with an ordinary quilt. OF
course it must be lightproof and
splinter-proof to furnish the same
protection. And the important thing
about this plan, as with any other,
Is to get everything In order now
so that you can blackout, when ne
cessary, quickly. smoothly, cheer
fully.

In this era OF vital beauty, spot

combs, brushes and powder puffs
as well as cosmetics containers-are
beauty "musts."
For how difficult 1t seems to put

quick facial before leaving work
when the dressing room Is cluttered
and unclean. And how effortlessly
the same task Is performed IN a
tidy place equipped with scrupulouS-
ly fresh instruments Of beauty.
SO make sure you have an invit-
ing, well-kept beauty retreat OF your
own, whether 1t be a friUy boudolr
or just bathroom shelf. Either can
offer you constantly the suggestion,
the impetus, to keep scrubbed and
well groomed.
A good way to start keeping your
beauty aids inviting Is to clean out,
throw away. those you do not use.
For the efficient and manageable
beauty shelf, like the good medicine
chest or wardrobe, Is the one WITH
every article in service. Others only
clutter. And clutter courts careless
ness.
DISPOSABLE PUFFS
ARE MOST SANITARY
It's much easier to keep a comb
clean than to let 1t 60 till It's SO
soiled that cleaning Is a big JOB.
SO why not swish yours through
bowl OF warm water containing
some ammonia or borax every few
days?
Powder puffs should be cleaned
as often, and thoroughly. II you
use q thick one OF cotton or wool,
wash it In warm suds, press IN
towel, and place in the sun to dry
Better still, Of course, if you can
afford it, is to discard the puff.
That's inexpensive too, when you
use the thin ones which come two
dozen in a package, or when you
use pellet Of cotton.
Cleansing tissues are as useful
for the toilet shelf as paper towels
are in the kitchen. Use 1t 20 wipe
Off lips sticks and lipstick brushes
when they become smeared, and
to dry the Jars and jar-tops that
are greasy.
Eyebrow and eyelash brushes
will clean easily-just hold them
under the hot water spigot while
the water runs full force.

Sydney Moskowitz, parole ex-

Convicts, he said, although
they have violated the laws of
the land which gave them their
big chance, generally are fer
vent that the United States must
win.
"a man in prison realizes
what the loss of freedom MEANS"

it. He reads of the Axis nations
