answer TO this will be presented

MARRIED WOMEN make
better war plant workers than
their unmarried sisters, but both
produce an exhilarating COM
petitive spirit among male fac
tory workers, says w. p. With
crow. president of the National
Association of Manufacturers.
Mr.. Witherow has just been to
a Southern California industrial
conference.
At first he says, the men OBJ
jected to invasion of the plants
by women. Then they discovered
the girls did their work well
SO well that the men have
had TO look TO their laurels and
improve their own standards.
Result speeding up OF
production and the boys are now
all sold on the idea and brag-
ging TO other departments about
the efficiency Of their women
WORKERS.
What's more, adds Mr.. With
crow, the men have improved
their personal appearance.
Well, of course. No self re-
speeding man would want TO
work alongside a neat little
woman and be without a shave
or haircut.
But ali me, let Cupid not go
stalking through the factories
giving stay-at-home wives
new worries!
Think of the irony Of having
10 iron a fresh shirt every day
for a husband so he
can make hit with the girl on
the next bench.
But think how wonderful 10
have 'em spruced up at all!

II A girl had the beauty of
Hedy Lamar, the figure of Ann
Sheridan and the style of Kay
Francis. what more could she
want, asks a correspondent. How
about a date with a handsome
captain of marines?
When a girl calls every man
darling, she dates herself. OAR
ling was popular away back in
the early nineteen-twenties, and
went out of vogue about the
time that monkey-face, toots. big
boy and other tender terms of

Tales of adventure, travel, his

WHY SHOULD a man always
be so surprised when the spring
filtration which began in a jolly

"Tf we decreed that women
had TO wear barrels, IL would be
only few days until they
started decorating the barrels
with lace edges or cartoons or
something" Stanley II. Marcus,
women's wear expert, is quoted
as saying.
WELL, WELL-heil. Fashion.

way but the right one
Everyone knows the old trick Of walking
with book balanced on the head It's good
one, too, but try balancing a tennis ball in
stead. While it nestles firmly among your
curls, bounce a second ball against the floor
How long can you keep it up?
If your shoulders really have a tendency
to be rounded. it will take a little work 10
straighten them out. One exercise, developed
at the University of Minnesota, does the trick
If you stick to it,
With feet bare, because feet are importan,
in this exercise, sit on the floor. Draw your
knees up under your chin-well against your
chest. Clasp both hands around the knees
and keep them there Now rock your BODY
as far as you can without moving your feet
or clasping your hands The next step is
to rock slowly forward bending neck and
back as you do so, until the chin rests be-
tween the knees.
Don't do this rocking exercise too many
times the first day or two, unless you want
a kink in your back-worse than the round
shoulders you're trying 10 get rid of. But
gradually person can work up to a point
where rocking back and forth two or three
dozen times is no effort at all.
So, girls be your guard against the
temptation TO slump and straddle Don't let
the way you stand or sit disclose the fact that
