Women i'm War Jobs Sacrifice Glamour
For Clothes That Cut Down Accidents
Flying Hair Catches
in Machinery so Uniform
Is Goal Of Ssfeiy Council

In a world at war, women do
mems jobs and men tell the
women what TO wear.
To keep Detroit leading the ma
ton in the prevention of indus
trial accidents, the great war
factories of this city cooperating
with the Detroit Industrial Safety
Council have started a program to
compel women to wear hazard
less" clothes on the job.
Frilly cuffs on Stacks, long
sleeves. flying locks are out,
according to Clarence Monmouth,
manager OF the council.
sCALPED BY MACHINERY
Just because some women
have neglected TO wear hair
nets" Monmouth points out.
they have been actually scalped
by machinery.
And don't get the idea that
we want all the women to look
alike. The factories will work
with the safety council on this
uniform, but the women may
choose any colors they want"
The new uniform. to be modelled
for the first time November is
when the safety council meets at
Northern High School, insists
Upon:
Coiffures carefully covered.
Short sleeves that cannot
catch In machinery.
Slack legs caught tightly at
the ankles.
. Low heels.
SMALL SACRIFICE
Detroit women, like those all
over the country" advised Wor-
mouth, must remember that
glamour IN . small sacrifice
when the very future of our
country h at stake. Accidents
deter the war effort.

Some OF the larger war plants
have designed their own uniforms

Board OF Education speaks on
safety fashions for women in
industry.

However, on account OF priori-
ties and one thing and another,

going to judge you by your stand
ard.
Too often standards seem I'M
important. The easy-going quail
ity of our present era is apt to
be very misleading, and we fall
into the habit of doing the things
that require the least effort.
To create the right ones re-
quires the most terrific struggle
all your life. The effort, of
course, is much too great for the
majority and they give up the
fight even before they start.
A man of character and ability
always has Observation-Disclosures
of conduct, of performance, and
of values; standards of speech, of
judgment, on everything that
touches his life.
Some of these are acquired
consciously and some uncon-
sciously. Some he learns him
self and some were bred into him
as youngster by his parents and
teachers. Some he achieves
through his success and some he
learns by his failures and disap-
pointments.
The element of effort, strife
and even suffering is always
present in the process, which
probably explains why the weak
and spineless fall by the way
side.
In any case, the worthwhile
person-the person of strong
character, good motivation, and
proper attitudes-sets high stand
ards for himself, strives to live
up to them.

Last Stand

The father was reading the
school report which had just
been handed to him by his hope
full son.
His brow was wrathful as he
read:
English, poor; French, weak;
mathematics, fair"-and he gave
a glance of disgust at the quak-
ing lad.
well, dad" said the son, sit is
not as good as it might be, but
have you seen that?" And he
pointed to the next line, which
read: Health, excellent"

It's The Little Things That Count

It's The Little Things That Count
II is a peculiar quirk of our
educational system that fractions
and the old familiar problems
about covering rooms with car
pets, papering walls are studied
at the beginning of school life
and are forgotten later on when
people go into business and skill
in simple problems should be at
their fingertips.
Don't you think that arithme-
tic should be taught again in the
senior year, because most people
seem to have forgotten all about
it by the time they graduate.
This necessitates training by
companies in teaching it again to
employees.
Personality may be defined as
those qualities and skills which
enable one person to reach 9TH
ers. plus the courage to do SO.
The easier it is for you to do
this the more personality you
are thought to posses. AS is. COM
monty known, some people have
a great deal while others seem to
be entirely devoid of it,
Fear is the greatest thief of
personality.
