The family car Is in difficul-

Her white stockings went q few
months back, and now, no shoes.
1t is just too bad, but it can't be

The lack Of materials and &C.

thinks there's great future for

Hanging pictures is more than
a matter of a nail and a piece OF
string, in spite Of the fact that
It looks so simple. Your selection
Of subject, manner Of framing
and choice of location may make
the difference between a room
that Is distinctive, or one that Is
Just run Of the mill"
There was a time when a room
was Uttered with a Heterogeneous
collection Of photographs, etch-
ings and paintings, each of which
might or might not be valued by
the owner of the room. Cousin
Miles picture taken by the local
photographer reposed on the pi-
ano, balanced at the other end
by portrait Of the twins. An
oil painting Of grandfather found
itself in the midst of several etch-
ings of the Grand Canal brought
from Venice by Uncle Ben and
placed over the mantel! And all
were lost in a collection of colored
chromos and tinted photographs
which made up in sentimental
value what they lacked in art.
Though we would be the last
to suggest that you decorate
your house without sentiment,
there is little doubt these days
that the value Of all Of these
things are enhanced by being
used in the proper place. The
charm Of photographs Of fam
lily and loved friends is a very
personal one. Most Of us would
not care to discuss them with
strangers any more than we
would read one OF their letters
aloud. For this reason 1t would
be advisable to group the photo
graphs in a room which Is re-
served for family gatherings or in
a corner that is devoted to per-
sonal things such as the alcove
with the writing desk, the small
and intimate study or ones own
bedroom. Here they may be
framed alike to form panels, or
grouped close together in narrow
frames to fill a whole wall space,
or, If large and distinctive, placed
on wide mat and given impor-
tant area as a single wall motif.
Small, colorful prints or paint
ings do not increase in value by
being used in groups. If one Of
these has been selected for it's
color 1t should be placed in an
empty wall space, we'll lighted
and given room to be important.
In this way 1t will draw an audi
ence, first because it forms an
interesting spot on the wall,

the opposite wall may be treated
differently. and alcoves or other
sections Of the room removed
from the general view may be
treated as though they were sep
arate rooms.
If you have period rooms you
will wish to use pictures and
frames that are in keeping with
the era. If you have a house in
the contemporary or modern
manner you will be interested in
carrying out some OF the new
ideas in presenting your pictures.
Paintings today are displayed for
their value as decoration as well
as their story. As such they de.

full relation to furniture groups
and individual lighting. One Of
the cleverest arrangements is
the placing Of the painting ON
the wall with the frame standing
away from the painting about 2
inches and the lighting installed
in back of the frame to play on
the face Of the picture. This is
one Of the most reasonable and
successful innovations In picture
hanging that has happened in

The delightful part of these

of hypochlorite and then allowed
to dry. If the gas alarm sounds,
dip the cloth in water and hang
1t over the wire front of the box.
If hypochlorite cannot be OBJ
tanned, dip the cloth in a solution
of permanganate of potash, using
enough to bring the water to a
port wine color.
1t might be better for those who
have facilities for taking their
pets to the country to do 50, but
there should be no panic about

Fashion Sho,U Notes:

Hattie Carnegie. world-famous
designer, attended her first Amer
lean fashion show yesterday
afternoon. She and several hum
dred other wel-groomed ladies
looked at a collection of fashions
by Miss Carnegie, overwhelmingly
accented with a mere $1,000 900
worth Of jewels designed by Paul
Flato. The occasion, of course,
was the fashion show presented
at the Mayf1ower Hotel for the
benefit Of Navy Relief and it
really, truly was the first style
promenade Miss Carnegie had
seen in this country-including
her own.
Let's hope that the clever and
very charming designer got as
big q bang out of the clothes as
did the rest Of the audience.
Titled Fashions With q Future"
they included a group of town
and country clothes, suits and
afternoon dresses as well as a
collection of informal and very
gala dinner and evening gowns.
Throughout the collection ran a
theme that was both romantic
and ultra-feminine, at the same
time keyed to current activities.
It was almost a "bicycle-built-
for-two" influence evidenced in
hats that were either infinitesimal
and precariously tilted over the
brow or huge sailor types with
almost no crown. but plenty of
brim. Dresses accented front

Women Take to Trousers

now, and the stocks are sure to
increase very soon, 50 you'll be
able to find almost any color,

don't forget, either, that there
will be some women who just
aren't right for this style-or the
style won't be right for them.
There never has been any one
fashion. as far as we know, that
every woman could wear well.
and there will be some women,
particularly the shorter, stouter
ones, who'll find trousers too DIFF
ficult for their measurements
no matter how well tailored the

Of aid and adjuncts to keep it a

adequate financial foundation, for

lovesick girl, who has had three
square meals every day Of her life,
to say that she can live on bread
and cheese and kisses, but she
finds out that after marriage she
Is just as hungry as she was be-
fore marriage, and that a steady
diet Of bread and cheese dimin-
iShes her appetite for kisses.
Also. she discovers that after
marriage she takes just as much
interest In pretty clothes as she
did before marriage; that she
likes to go places and do things
just as much, and that she can
get fed up on the society Of her
Romeo If she gets too much of it.
For the truth is that while love
Is the meringue on the lemon pie
Of life, it isn't the whole thing.
1t adds sweetness and flavor and
beauty to it, but what nourishes
us Is the good, substantial
foundation under it. A marriage
without love is cinders, ashes and'
dust, but a marriage that has
nothing in it but love is a painted
balloon that collapses in our
hands.
Emotions do not last. Time
withers them, as the sun does a
fragile flower. No man and wom-
an can keep thrilling over each
other for 80 or 40 years at a

can ever be all-in-all to each
other. They must have other
people, other interests, other
amusements.
1t isn't enough for q husband
and wife to love each other per-
Sonally. They must love lot of
the same things. They must love
the same books. the same kind
Of people, the same amusements,
If they are to be happy together.

and girls who cry out "love is
enough do not know, and that

Probably you're bhssfully una
ware that we have just passed
. crisis. Came through 1t nicely,
too. thanks. You see, 1t all hap
pened when the designers started
talking, really seriously, about
slacks, saying that with added ac-
tivity, war work and bicycle rid
, ing, the feminine population
would take to trousers in a big
way. They predicted women who
have been wearing slacks for
years would add to their supply;
other women who have not ven-
tured into them would turn to
feminine trousers as the answer
to their needs.
Anybody can see the compli-
cations that could arise, and it
doesn't take q great deal of
imagination to picture the ladies
going about for the idea. We
could imagine q nation of ladies
In long pants. We could picture
the stouter members Of our sex
IN too-tight trousers and the
simmer ones in droopy models.
sSufferin' slacks!" we thought,
"this Is going to be something
awful"
But we lost three nights sleep
and got four more gray hairs all
in vain. If we had really stopped
to think about it, we might have
known that the more intelligent
designers would work like little
beavers to give us slacks that fit
we'll. look pretty and feminine
and don't give us the undesirable
air Of masculinity that original
models did. It's obvious that the
period of experimentation is over,
and the girls now can count on
straight hanging, wen-cut slacks
In all colors and fabrics.
We think there's a great future
for this sty1e. Unlike some Of the
more extreme fashionists, we
don't believe that women will be
coming to work in slacks in the
near future; nor do we think that
thS-e's a field for mink slacks"
such as Coincidence Oracle Allen
described the other evening. We
do believe, however, that you'll
see slacks in twills and gabar-
dimes, rough weaves, homespun
and hopsacking for daytime ac-
tvities. There will be a trend to-
ward tapering at the cuff, both
for smartness and fabric conser-
walton. Bicycle slacks with straps
TO go under the shoes are be-
ginning to appear, and there are
slack suits with matching jackets
and those with contrasting tops
according to what's best suited to
your figure.
And there's still another, newer
place for slacks In the fashion
picture. They're beginning to
take the place Of pajamas and
housecoats for "at home" wear.

At the beginning of the war,
thousands of pets were destroyed
in England by their owners VINO
thought this was the only humane
thing to do. Since then these
people and others have learned
that such action should be dis
couraged. Pets are an important
factor In maintaining the morale
OF the people in times of great
national disaster, and with q
little forethought about their
welfare end protection in. case Of
an emergency. they will fare ex-
ceedingly well.
The American Red Star Animal
Relief has issued a pamphlet on
the care of animals under war
time conditions, including a num-
ber of precautions that should be
taken by all pet owners. At all
times dogs and cats should wear
license tags and collars bearing
the names and addresses Of their
owners. Pets should be kept
under strict control during an

leash or confined to one room Of
the house. On no condition
should they be turned loose.

people in your neighborhood who
would permit animals to be tenn

Normal Hair
Apt to Shed
Constant,

You need to speed up produc-
ton on the top of your head dur
ing either peace or war, because
you shed your hair constantly.
Even normal, healthy scalps drop
about so hairs a day from shin
ing locks.
Don't worry about this rate Of
shedding, but II you are losing
an abnormal amount Of hair you
should consult an expert in this
field.
Surveys show that people who
work indoors are more victimized
by badness than those whose oc-
cupation keeps them outdoors.
We don't know whether this is
due to the fact that the outdoor
workers get more air and sun or
whether 1t Is because their gen.
eral health Is better. Probably
both factors play their part.
