HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not compel"
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22


 Benefic aspects are active in the morning and afternoon today, but the evening is not fortunate time for many who seek public acclaim.
 HEART AND HOME: Parents whose daughters are in uniform will desire that safeguards be pro vided for girls when they seek re- creation. Centers for dancing and refreshment will be established un- der the direction of older women. Again the Y.W.C.A. will contribute greately to the happiness of boys in uniform. Canteens that intro / duce novel methods of providing for the needs of Home Guards and others will gain popularity. The seers warn of nasty romances among young folk who are working and fighting for the nation.
 USINESS AFFAIRS: All through the Autumn prospects in most lines of business will be good. Manufacturers and tradesmen forced into new lines of work will prosper. Specialists in many tech nical lines will offer their services to the Government, which will gain much through the aid of exper- fenced men. f The trend in Wash ington will be toward the stern application of practical ideas and standard business principles to war time organizations. Political in- fluence will lose it's power, espe- cially after election, the seers fore cast.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Churches and other organizations will revive the prohibition movement which will not make headway this year. Certain limitations regarding the sale of liquor will be extended, however. Among civilians cocktail parties will be less popular; drink ing will be less general in social circles. Rise in the cost of liquors, cigarettes and cigars will be widely deplored by many who are not con- cerned with the cost of food.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Intense feeling regarding the war will be prevalent as the month ends. The magnitude of our part in the worldwide conflict at last will be realized with sudden an- Xiety as citizens of every state con- | centrate upon work and sacrifices for victory. Second front possi- bilities will be watched with the will to win by the civilian popu- lation of the United States. Amaz- ing deeds are to be recorded for the United Nations, but heavy losses are foretold.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of per i plexities and pitfalls. Care should be exercised by both men and wo- men.
 Children born on this day prob. ably will be impulsive and bril-. liant, but inclined to be critica and faultfinding. They should b. carefully disciplined.

mastiff was taken to the West Indies
from Spain. The Tibetan mastiff is
believed to have as long history as
the English mastiff.
The great dane is similar to the
mastiff In some respects and may
be related. His native hants are
Germany and Denmark, but many
of his race have been brought to
this continent. In former times the
great dane was widely used in
hunting the boar, or wild hog.
The bulldog is related to the mas
tiff, but is smaller. The usual weight
is about so pounds. This dog was
also used in hunting in early
days, and in that sport was able to
hang on for dear life"
Bulldogs of two or three centuries
ago were far more fierce" than
those of today. They were used for
the so-called sport of bull batting
Several of them would be sent to
attack a bull and a crowd of people
would watch. That old custom ex-
plains the name bulldog"
More than a century ago law
was made in England to put an end
to bull-baiting. The sport died out
and people did not want vicious dogs
around their homes. So the bulldogs
with bad tempers were killed of and
the better ones were kept. The
result was a new type of bulldog
strong but gentle.
A dog which looks very much like
small edition of the bulldog is the
pug dog 1t weighs less than half as
much as bulldog.
Pugs, however, seem to be a very
different race. 1t is believed that
they reached Europe from China
The Dutch East India company is
supposed to have been first to trans
port them from Asia to Great
Britain and Holland.

Furniture Scaled
TO Fit Homes

The prediction that by the
end of l943 over 100000 es-
pecially constructed homes will
be occupied by war workers
gave the furniture industry
quite a jolt, since most of these
families will be buying home
furnishings especially for their
new homes. However, since
many of them are used to living
in small rooms in apartment
buildings, the problem for
adapting new furniture designs
TO defense houses is r OF too diff
ficult.
Authorities agree that house.
wives will have no trouble il
they use common sense" in Sc
lecting furnishings.
Furniture should be in pro-
portion TO the rooms. That is,
large overstuffed living room
suite will make the room seem
crowded. Some of the most eff
fective rooms seen on recent
survey we're done in Early
American maple, with bright
chintz fabrics and flowered
rugs. Another house used rattan
in modern with Chinese and
tropical accessories.
Of course, many pieces are
available which have been seal
ed down to fit smaller rooms,
although preserving the beauty
of line of 18th Century and
modern furniture. deliberately
fussy designs are to be avoided,
because they destroy the restful
atmosphere of the room.
Furniture should be bought
with an eye to its adaptability.
Many workers are frequently
transferred from one plant to
another, and must take their
furniture with them. The new
functional groups whose units
may be used as chests, dressers,
or buffets at will are especially
practical.

Sears Prepared
for Cool Weather

There is tinge of Fall in the
air and there is one establish
ment in the city of Mount Glenn
ems that is all prepared for the
Fall and Winter season.
Twice a year Sears Roebuck
puts out one of the biggest books
in the world using $4,000 pic
lures and millions of words to
tell you what the approaching
season has to offer you. 1t comes
from Sears Roebuck and Com
pany according to Barbara
Baker, manager of Mount Glenn
ems order office at "a New
street. The new Sears catalogue
has fewer pages than it has
heretofore, by nearly 200, but
the catalogues that are being
distributed are nearly 100000
more than at any other time.
The main reason for decrease
in the pages is that U. S. prior
tiles have shortened a lot of
lines and entirely eliminated
other lines. The book shows the
new style trends in mems, and
ladies' clothing and home fur
nishings and shows the effects of
the war by showing many items
made from alternate materials
which the Sears laboratories
have developed to replace those
the government has placed on
priorities. There are 1888
items priced below the price
ceilings established by the OPA.

II Makes
Fall Fashions
More Dramatic

With simplicity as starting
point, and LBS rulings for their
guiding principle, New York
creations for Fall manage to
achieve an atmosphere of ele-
gance and give evidence of an
ingenuity which speaks we'll for
American inventiveness in de-
signing.
In developing the dramatical-
ly slim line, fashion creators
favor the simplest kind of basic
cut. Pegtops are smoothed out
and kept to the center, main
timing a narrow outline. The
new drawstring waistline is a
newcomer in the design picture.
And the wrap-over theme, with
closing at front or back, is an
other narrow skirt treatment
that assumes Importance in the
new collections. These wrap
around dresses are not divided,
but are folder over IN one piece,
a skillful bit of cutting that de-
velops a completely new, draped
hip line.
Then there are many import
ant new Fall styles that feature
complete disuse of waistline
accents. These princess dresses
are the utmost in simplicity as
far as lines 60, and feature as
much skirt fulness as the law al
lows. Surprisingly, the LBS linn
itation on fabric, when handled
by a skillful designer, does rot
disturb the beauty of line, the
dramatic quality of fare desired
in a princess line dress. 1t all
dpends on the designers inge-
nuity, his sense of proportion,
his skill in developing the dra-
matte quality in garment.
America may well take pride in
the clothes that are coming out
of the great New York houses,
under unusual restrictions i'm
posed by the government order.
Two piece wool dresses, the
soft, short-jacketed cost ume
scanned for figure flattery, will
be important in the Fall picture.
Skirts are slim as a reed, some
times with soft tucks across the
front of the diaphram, in keep
ing with the soft detailing of the
jacket, which ranges in length
from rs to FL inches. Large plas-
tic buttons often accent the jack
ct portion of these dresses.
A modified version of the
dirndl is seen prominently fea-
tured in New York collections
for Fall, especially among those
designed for Juniors wear.
These naive little dresses fea-
ture non-priority velveteen, lus-
trous faille, and wool mixtures.
100 per cent virgin wool will
still be with us this Fall, but
will become more and more a
luxury as Winter and Spring put
greater drain on the available
wool supply.
Colors are still vibrant, fewer
perhaps in number, but alive
and very 1912. New York crea-
tions go in for plume embroid-
cries and sequin insets through
the bodice of crepe dresses. Neu-
trails look very smart with dis
Greet glitter. So do the purple
and fuchsia family, among a big
assortment of bright crepes.
Satin against wool is used in YER
teal bands and applied in end
less ways to provide a different
kind of shiny-dull contrast.
Dresses are Unexpectedly dra-
matte, proving that all we need
ed was a challenge, and it was
provided by LBS.
