she was a girl-navy serge for
every day, spotless white for very

navy skirt for those "in-between"
occaSions-this costume will ap-
pear charmingly youthful and
fresh at all times:
So, lose no time in making your
self this very simple two-piece
model presented in our Pattern
No. 1551-B. A true sailors collar
outlined with two rows of braid
gives a sea-going saltiness to the

wear typical sailors tie, knotted
in front or slipped through the
loop in a neat effect. You can
make the f1aring skirt in a very
short time.
Make this two-piecer now in
navy blue serge, jersey or heavy
cotton twill. Later you'll want 1t
in the faded blue color which has
made such a hit in Southern vaca-
ton spots. And 1t Is the perfect
white dress-trimmed with bright
red or navy blue-good for popIn,
pique, linen or sharkskin.

Emergency Rations

been somewhat slighted. Ger
tainly we should look into the
matter and consider the most
beneficial and practical types Of
food for the refuge room.
An excellent list compiled by
the Girl Scouts of D. c., Inc, lists
emergency rations for two people
for eight days. at cost of about
IS cents per day for each. They
state that the essential foods can
be carried In two knapsacks, so
in most cases one or two small
shelves placed in the corner OF a
room would hold the supply con-
veniently. You will notice that
the following list is composed of
non-perishable and nourishing
foods:
EMERGENCY RATIONS.
! pound powdered milk (equiva-
lent to quarts bottled milk.
/ can tomato juice.
2 cans fruit juices.
1 pound spaghetti.
u pound pasteurized cheese.
2 cans corned beef hash.
2 cans salmon.
/ package each dates, figs,
raisins.
1 large box triscuit.
/ can Boston brown bread.
l package pancake flour.

can cocoa powder (includes dry
milk.

l jar honey.
8pac kages dehydrated soup
weighing only " pound, will
serve two people 16 tines.
u pound hard candy.
Oleomargar1ne.
Halazone tablets (for purifying
water).
These articles can be purchased
from any local food store and of
course you must remember to in
crease the quantities to accom-
modate the number of persons In
your household.

Frills at Little Cost
inexpensive Additions Make Room
By Marparef NoweH

40 ~f 4 v
Young people are full Of good
ideas, and when a 16-year-old can
create a room for herself for SIG
who would SAY her nay? Youth
full and practical as the pictured
one Is, it will make q perfect
background for the life she leads,
and satisfy her yearning for deli
cate color and gayety as well.
Starting with the usual equip
ment Of a small bedroom, she has
made 1t definitely "her own" with
color and personal touches. The
wall paper is soft blue. striped in
white with ladders of pale pink
roses all around the room. The
frilly, feminine curtains are a
work Of art made Of white tar
latan mosquito netting to yoU,
which costs only 80 cents a yard
and keeps its crisp effect in spite
OF everything.
Then with youthful contrari-
ness she changes from frills to
complete practically in dressing
her work bench" in pink oilcloth.
This is not the shiny. oily kind,
but the one that looks like taffeta.
This d-faShioned material
makes the slickest sort of modern
dressing table, which stays neat
and trim looking with constant
use, yet is completely young and
feminine. She has pleated it into
neat folds and trimmed it with q
garland Of fat white cotton rope.
The same frill and rope bow
trims the mirror, the wastebasket
and makes the tie-backs for the
curtains.
The young lady, not caring for
tedious housework. has planned
all of this with an eye to freedom.
About once in six months she will
remove all the oiIcloth and, lay
ing 1t out fiat on the kitchen

Newspapers magazines and
pamphlets have covered extern
sively the subject of what to do
in an air raid. We have had it
drilled into our minds to get off
the streets, stay away from win
dows and turn out all lights. Spe-
cial information has encouraged
us to secure equipment for our
shelter room such as blankets,
blackout curtains, flashlights or
candles, radio, books for enter

bangs are. Her solicitude for
the pets left in her care and her
humorous appraisal of the over
grown Sealyham's ability to
"scrounge" for pity, as well as
her scorn for the lodger's dachs-
hund who sets the others a bad
example by his dirty habits, are
true portraits of simple, ster-
ling character. Her care for the
master Of the house, extending
even to watching over any fan
cied attempts on his part to stray
in forbidden paths, are touch
ingly human.
It's a delightful book, all the
way through, though it breaches
a sermon of deadly serious i'm
port to us all just now. The
lesson is SO kindly given, so
humbly meant that we can but
take 1t with a word Of sober
thanks to Annie for writing the
letters, and to the author for
having the wisdom to save and
publish them.
Annie loved her royalty, and
had a fellow housekeeper named
Mrs. Decker whose father had
once let her look at the children
of George v playing in the
palace grounds. According to
Annie, the father informed her
friend, at that time, pointing
to young Edward, That one
there will never be a king"
Whether the prophecy was .
matter of Annie's and Mrs.
Decker's hindsight rather than
the fathers foresight would be
hard to say. Every one knows.
however, why Edward did not
become crowned King, which
leads us directly to the next book
on our list TO review.
Some Favorite Southern Re-
cipes of the Duchess Of Windsor"
published by Charles Scribner's
Sons of New York, has 4 fore
word by the Duchess herself, and
an introduction by Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt. The recipes them
selves have been tested and
verified by the Home Institute
of the New York Herald Tribune,
and include a number of those
which made the duchess so
famed as a hostess when she was
living in Europe. Most of them
are far from elaborate, and rely
upon clever seasoning and savory
sauces to achieve epicurean per-
fection. A few typical Southern
menus are included, and there
is a short section devoted to the
Duchess favorite foreign recipes.

It's a tribute to the manners

Any one who has put q foot into

Gently is well aware that the
fashion interest is as great, If not
greater, than In more mature
styles. Best of all, the l6ers have

Typewriters Vital
 In Present Battle
6OO,00O Standard Sire Machines Needed By Uncle
 Sam in Prosecuting War Effort

Hartford, Nov. 2a--Typewriters, commonly associated with sunny business ofices and struggling au- thors. saw plenty of action in the first World War and are seeing more in this one.
 There is the case history, for ex- ample, of the World War One type- writer that stayed with Company B, 26th Infantry, from the time the company served on the Mexican bor- der in 1916 until Germany was oc- lcupied. Writing home about the machine in January, 1919, an in- fantry captain related--"Since land- ing over here the typewriter has rec ported all casualties, cited men for gallantry in action, promoted and produced NCOs and had the distinc- tion of recommending the first of1- cer and enlisted man of the AEF awarde the Distinguished Service Cross"
 Before the war was over, the vet eran machine had served on eight fronts, in five major engagements and finally finished up with three service stripes and one wound stripe atop a field desk in Coblez with the Army of Occupation. (The wound , stripe was earned by 8 fall from a combat wagon returning from the big ush at Soissons)
 One of the first steps General Per- sfing's quartermaster took soon af- ter the generals arrival in France was to cable home for an initial or- der of 300 typewriters with an addi- tional request for 300 more to be sent within the next six months.
 In this war, typewriters have been bounced about on camel back in the MiddleEast, hauled by Army mules over mountains and transported over Iceland snows by dog cleds. Their keys were heard in the Bat aan jungles and on Corregidor they recorded sick and wounded reports. Signal corps radios are hooked up with typewriters for fast multiple treatment of military messages. Fly ing Fortress pilots, about to take oil, are handed last minute weather re- ports which are typewriter. Prac- tically every basic unit of the Armed Forces employs the typewriter in the managerial function of making paper records.
 Consider the typewriter's role in the Medical corps, for example: To begin with, typewriter is standard equipment for the Army surgeon. The first medical officer who gets the wounded soldier makes out an emergency medical tag which iden- tifies the man, diagnoses the injur- ies and records the manner in which it happened. However: in the haste and confusion of battle the writing is nearly always in pencil which is prone to blur or smear. Therefore, as soon as possible, the information taken down by the medical officer is typed and care fully filed. The Army depends on that card for it's medical statistics That card becomes an impartial witness to the wounded soldiers claims for insurance after the war is over. That card constitutes a per- manent case history. And. as one Army officer has put it, without the typewriter the cards value would be less secure. Handwriting makes

MONACAN ANSWERS
 WALKERS PROTEST
Adermanic President Says Police Cars Upkeep Costs
 More Than Ever

Alderman Burton H. Walkers protest against a proposed transfer of $500 from the contingency fund to the appropriation for mainte- nance of police cars, was answered last night at the board meeting by Pres. John s. Monagan, who assert ed that the cars purchased this year were not as good as previous ones, and that nothing further could be done about the matter at present.
 Pres. Monagan said that the finance board had discussed the question at considerable length, and had deemed it advisable to appro- priate more money for the upkeep of the cars. He pointed out that the cost of repairs and spare parts had increased, and stated that the cars had to be kept running all the time so that the batteries would be charged and the radio system work ing.
 He was asked by Alderman George Kingston why the batteries could not be taken out daily and re- charged at the police station, but he replied that such changing would ruin the battery and batteries can not now be easily replaced.
