LONDON, Sept. q. - Wacs on
duty overseas are wondering ABOUT
promotions-and there is a note OF
disgruntlement developing.
IT'S the old Army gripe-promo-
lions back home while the over

Wacs who risked the dangers OF
an overseas trip - among them
those who passed upYthe chance
of promotion to come-are getting
word that women soldiers back
home with whom they trained are
being stepped up in grade while
they are not.
There is more to it than that,
and the Army has word for it:

Mascara can be one Of the
greatest beauty aids-or it can
make you look hard and cheap.
'"There are three important
steps in accenting lashes with
Makeup" lovely Mrs. James
Melton, wife of the radio and
opera star, has found.
First, she points out, you must
select the correct shade for your
tolpring-broWn for blondes, black
ioN brunets and blue for evening
onlS, and only for those with blue
eyes.
In applying it, she advises,
dampen your brush just enough
to moisten the mascara so that
each bristle picks up its share.
Then, beginning at the base of the
lashes, apply the mascara with
deft, upward strokes. If you want
your eyes to look larger, apply
it to the outer lashes only. Never,
never use mascara on your lower
lashes. That is what gives one
hard look.
And as the final step, wash the
brush and go over the mascaraed
lashes to remove any excess
makeup and prevent them from
punching.

WOMENS HELPING HANDS
CLOTHE VICTIMS IN 20 COUNTRIES

WASH1NGTON.-From the mo-
nent "Knittin' for Britain" be-
came watchword in 1899, patri-
cite A m err C an women have,
through four full years of war,
been steadily sewing and knitting
some 24,000,000 garments, of all
kinds, for the civilian victims OF
&c battered countries.
Under the auspices Of the Red
Cross, clothes made by American
women from all walks of life,
have been sent to the liberated
peoples OF North Africa: to the
Middle East for refugees from the
blitz in Poland and in Greece; to
the orphaned and homeless sur
vivors of the devastating fighting
on the Russian front, is where the
Alliance of Red Cross and Red
Crescent S CT e tie S distribute
among the needy this tangible ev-
idence of American friendship.
American women, fighting the
war from their porches, by sew
ing for long, hot hours during the
summer of 1912, provided $4,000
North African babies with flannel
dresses, hand-crocheted bonnets,
bottles, tiny baby jackets, silk
and wool undersilirts, umbilical
bands, stockings, blankets, at
time when there was shortage
of every kind of cotton material
and a desperate need for chill
dren's garments.
This simple action on the part
of Red Cross volunteer sewers
n d knitters, helped cement
Franco-American relations and
aided French morale. One French
mother wrote to the chairman of
the American Red Cross and said:
Through the intermediary of the
Office for Help for Large Fami-
lies in Rabat, I received one OF the
layettes which you were kind
enough to give to our babies. I
want to thank you infinitely.
Madame. Mother of three young
children, I appreciate your gift all
the more because it is often i'm
possible for us to procure even
the most indispensable garments.
Rest assured that the generous
gesture of American women will
go right to the heart of all French
mothers, and will help in large
measure to strengthen the bonds
of deep friendship which have
always united our two countries"
Polish refugees-some $1,000 of
them-have also become more
keenly aware, through the action

marketing.
Stores are crowded today with
t:red-looking mothers trying to
carry babies in their arms or hold
on to small children's hands while
they shop.
And vet their shopping could
be so much easier for them if the
stores that have curtailed most
of their services would open up
& new one-a corner for kids.
Why can't the corner grocery
man buy a playpen, hang up a
aouple of canvas baby swings and
so give tired, dlstraught mothers
a chance to park their youngsters
while they buy the groceries they
will have to carry home?

And why couldn't department

corners wouldn't have to be ell
aborate-just safe.
Everything is harder for young
mothers these days. But some of
the difficulties could be smothered
