rated by war will have to work out their own rules.
 They'll have to bank heavily on their faith in each other, and on their plans for the future.
 They'll have to fight falling into this-is-war frame of mind that would let them excuse behavior that doesn't measure up to the code of morals they have always believed in.
 WAR WIVES HAVE
 HARD PART TO PLAY
 And they'll have to try hard to understand the experiences a n q hardships both are going through flor the wife's role is going to be about as hard as the husbands For her there will be no new scenery, no completely new ex- periences, nor the companionshir l that men in the service have She'll lead dreary, lonely sort of life-bearing all the responsi- bility for the children, and worry ling constantly about her husband
 Even though the going won't bt easy, couples will be able to wori out a philosophy that will keeI their marriages alive through sep. aration. Most of those who fai would probably have failed any how ie they ever found the going tough.

 Going back to school, office. or a war production job with re- newed determination to keep your skin in condition = but swiftly
 Then, take look at some new miniature key beauty essentials which alert houses are offering. These small handles reflect a globetrotter's appreciation of the importance of travelling light for efficiency.
 One Fifth Avenue maker of su- perfine skin preparations wraps up five products in a beauty kit that's small enough to keep near you, Tn desk drawer, locker, even in your big pocketbook. ..
 There's a light non-greasy liquid that works like a blotter With grime on the face. Another vial holds a reviver which "blushes" and two other lotions to dress the skin 1 with a delicate finish. An emollient is included for night time use. Five eighth ounce bottles - enough for a few weeks.
 Another house employs the little bottle idea in a practical home and-work arrangement. Here, a six ounce bottle of cleansing g-and- fln- ishing lotion has, slung over its shoulder, a one-ouaace bottle of the same lotion. The big bottle iS designed to stay at home; the little one, t go with you to work With any good mild soap and this one preparation. says the Czech pharmacist who makes it, adequate cleansing and protection can be ac' complished.

PR0MKsCU0Us HAND SHAKING A reader offers this comment on the custom of shaking hands;
 No doubt eGch person ! meet is as anxious as [ am to be clean, but wonder whsther we do not contract or spreed disease sonle- times by shaking hands. What ts your thought regarding Q crusade against promiscuous or unneces- sary hand shaking in the interest of better health?
 At the time of the last great epi- demic of flu" in the years of World War I some studies conducted by public health service officers seemed to them to indicate that hand shak- ing was one way the infection might be spread from person to person, Of course that Is not inconceivable But if the custom of shaking hands were regarded as Q means of the spread of such disease the health authorities themselves would have instituted 0 crusade against un- necessary hand shaking.
 At the time the public health service officers made their studies and published their conclusions ] believed and still believe that the hand shaking had little If anything to do with the spread of influenza or other respiratory infection.
 When you shake hands with any one you usually talk with him, il only to say How do. When you talk with any one who is within three oi four feet distant, your invisibly ant lmpalpably fine conversational spray may carry to his face, and thu microscopic droplets of mucus ol moisture in the spray may contair the germs or virus of any respira' tory infection you happen to have Therefore, while you shake handi and wish your friend or acquaint' ance well you may be peppering thu poor fellow with some respirator! infection you have just caught ana are about to come down with.
 That's my thought regarding crusade against unnecessary hant shaking, until we get sound scien tiflc evidence to the contrary.
 For the prevention of any pos sible infection through shakinI hands l offer these rules;
 1. Cultivate the habit of keep.
 ing your hands or fingers away | from your mouth and nose.
 2. After shaking hands avail
 yourself of the best hand disin-
 fectant-soap and water--as soon
 as possible thereafter. As Q good citizen, concerned about the pub-
 lie health, protest if the public
 health department permits filthy

POWDER DOESN'T MIX
 WITH FACTORY WORK

She suggests washing your face with soap at night, then applying the lotion for cleaning and soften ing; using the same lotion instead of soap in the morning and during the day. It is a good base for powder-but, by the way, this ex- pert cautions against using much powder for work in a grimy place The lotion contains lanolin. keeps both normal and dry skin soft, and helps to make dirt come off easily
 For oily skins, there's a lotion containing tar and resorcin, pack. aged similarly. This is to be used in the same routine as in employed with normal skin - unless the skin is extremely oily. in which case soar should be eliminated.

Quilted cotton velveteen makes this smart winter coat for day. time, afternoon, and evening. It's eeverSlble--black on one side, red on the other. This exemplliies an important fall-winter 1942 fashion trend: familiar cottOns used in
 new ways.
 Sweaters, jackets and suits are knitted with cotton rug yarn, which is warm and unexpectedly soft. The official WAAC dressing gown is a straight, tailored, cotton corduroy robe.
 Velveteen makes interesting slacks for evening, also afternoon suits One slacks outfit includes all-quilt- ed black velveteen trousers and bolero, with charteuse waistcoat.
 Cotton fabric accessories, espe- cially bags, gloves, and hats, are & story in themselves. Even shoes are cotton this fall. Velveteen san dals and other low-heeled spectator sports shoes complete many of tho smartest costumes for evening ane for sports, especially matching cot ton velveteen shoes.

Speaking of local markets, how about the river that runs through SO meny towns. This catfish stew recipe comes from Georgette Har- vey in "Porgy and Bess," the mus teal classic. Miss Harvey says 1t might solve the meat shortage proo- lem right now.

SOLDIERS COATS INSPIRE NEW WRAP

Now they're learned that cot ton can be, and can look as warm as wool. In fact, when it Is not woven with, but is used in com hination with & thin layer of all- wool goods, 1t Is warmer than wool alone and quite Q bit lighter,
 That's why American snowshoe troopers in Alaska wear Q full length overcoat made of cotton and wool The outer, water-repellent poplin Is white; the lining Is the same material in green, The re- versihle garment clor-protects the fighter equally well in psruce woods and on snow. The coat has an inner lining of sheerest wool.
 Wraps like that, action-inviting, matchless windhreakers, are dis played along with the prettifled cot- to nclothes for winter.
