BEACH SHOES COME TO TOWN
Rv NRA Service

nI kN2A 0NANAgg
 New York-With shoes rationed to make sure that the available supply will not be "all for one" but will afford at least one for all, 1t belnooves every mothers daughter to buy wisely this spring. Ratioring has promoted the rugged models to new importance. But rugged" doesn't mean style or good looks are plenty of shoes in the spring offerings that delight the eye as well as east the sole.
 There are plenty of leather shoes flor the present. But the ones you buy should be treated with an anx- ious eye to longevity, so you'll prob ably find yourself saving wear on your ration-Ehoes by backstopping them with unrationed types.
 These will appear in increasing numbers and you can expect to meet on city streets many kinds of shoes normally tagged for active sport or beach wear. These will be made of mon ration" materials such aS fabrcis, plastics, string, rope and wood.
 Style news comes out of the woods. Designers ingenuity has produced wooden Soles that are flexible and comfortable to year for extended walking. One model looks like the familiar thick-soled beach clog, but the sole Is divided cross-wise into half Q dozen strips. all hinged SO that the sole bends in conformation to your step. An- other form of wooden sole, lighter and more refined in looks, has Q tractor tread" This Is made of from IS to 20 separate pieces of half-Tound wood, ceTnented to a flexible sole-shape. The glancing eye will find 1t hard to tell these wooden soles from leather or rub- ber ones.
 Cord and rope soles have been greatly improved the materials being chemically treated, hardened and worked with plastics or re- claimed scrap rubber to give them the durability needed for street wear.
 Among leather shoes, there Is plenty of variety to be found in stocks made before the restrictive orders went Into effect. Comfort IS stressed. Daytime heels are lower, and the soft, comfortable play.type shoe Is considered the perfect af1- swer for the woman war worker, the hard-walking college girl or her home-staying, but carlcss SiS- terS.

 YOURSELF

 The woman who just cannot be happy without bleaching her hair can still practice this transforming act. But, tired as you are of mousy hir, would advise you not to bleach 1t until you have considered these practical points:
 Your age: Bleached hair often is severe and makes the face of the woman approaching middle age ape pear hard.
 Your coloring. Hair and facial coloring usually go together natur- ally. Your particular skin tones may not look well with frightened tresses'
 Your wardrobe. You'll probably need different colors to 90 with your new hair color. So reach for your conservation-sense before reaching for the peroxide.
 Finally, think what kind of per- son you really are. VIII you be able to state without embarrass- ment that your hair is dyed, or feel uncomfortable denying the fact? The opinions of your husband or beau, if they conflict with yours may seem more important to you after the tresses are bleached.
 Unless you have plenty of time in which to apply makeup and care for the bleached hair, say, two hours e week, you'd better be pre-. pared to admit that you touch il up, because 1t takes that much time to keep bleached hair from looking obvious.

 Tobias Stone of New York, Tla- tional open pair title holder, makes 1t interesting any time you sit down and kibitz him. After he made his contract on today's hand, he turned to the kibitzers and said, q bid 1t so he would not lead Q club He had to lead Q spade"
 think you will also admit Stone played the hand well. He thought his partners four diamond bid was optimistic. He bid five clubs, as he explained, to induce @ spade open. ing.
 The spade lead was won by the jack, and a small heart was played from dummy, which Stone (South) ruffed with the jack oi diamonds. another spade was played to the ace and the seven of hearts ruffed with the queen of diamonds
 The ace of diamonds was cashed and now Stone led the three oi diamonds and boldly finessed dum- mys nine-spot. On the king and six of diamonds he discarded two clubs from his own hand. Two more clubs went on the ace and king of hearts Thus he lost only one club trick.
 Stone further remarked, Sim pie mathematics = I had to win four spade tricks, two hearts and four diamonds. Therefore l had to get in two ruffs to make l2 tricks"
