Beauties Hints
 Individuality
 Should Keynote Your Wardrobe
BY ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

It's the individuality, not the amount of money spent on clothes, which keynoteS the chic styling of a we'll dressed woman.
 Maybe it's the way she wears an odd piece of costume jewelry on the pocket of her skirt, instead of where most other women would pin it-on the lapel. Or an unusual way of tying scarf, winding a turban or mating unrelated colors. They're only little touches, but ones which make her stand out in a crowd.
 Comedy singer Helen O'Connell, and favorite entertainer at serv- ice mems camps all over the coun- try, is known for her individual hair ornaments.
 They're nothing more than pipe cleaners which shape into little flowers and tint to match my dress" Helen explained. Yet they

 Your best bet for year-round wear Sally advises, is big-brimmed hat of navy felt, with peaked crown soft enough to permit manipulation into several effects.

 Food news is war news. The gaso- line shortage has produced a food crisis from Virginia up through a large part of the northeast area. Gasoline-powered tractors and or chard-SprayerS were kept idle when most needed. That news hits us brad. The recent rains and floods damaged many essential crops such as corn-meaning pork chops and bacon; hay for cattle - meaning steaks and stews; and soy-beans and peanuts, both important sources of protein in these days of frequent meatless days.
 Andrew s. Wing, secretary -man- ager of the National Victory Garden Institute, reports that the southern peach crop is off from 29 million bushels to million bushels, and that the northern apple crop is off, too, because of the freeze and the fact that this is not Baldwin year"
 These reports demand realistic thinking, not panic. There is enough food for everyone, but not enough of the same kind of food everyone has liked best. There are several things we can do to keep our armed forces, ourselves and our fighting allies adequately fed de-

vilian Requirements chief, Food Distribution Administration. That was more food than the Army and Navy and Lend-Lease, together, used.
 More homemakers will have to attend modern cooking and nutri- tion courses, and determine to "Starve the garbage can.' More of us must learn to eat whole some foods we have been spurn- ing or neglecting. Peanuts and soybeans, for example, will soon become familiar in family menus as sources of low-cost available protein. Wholegrained breads and cereals must be eaten more fre- quently because of their high min eral, vitamin and protein content as well as their abundance. Fish from our rivers and oceans, and game from our forests will be used increasingly. No available and wholesome foods can be wasted through carelessness or non-use in the face of present news.
 SERIOUS, NOT DESPERATE
 Although the food crisis may be serious, it certainly is not desperate. We aren't facing any famine We don't actually know the meaning of the word in the United States.
 Another phrase misunderstood widely is Victory Garden" It is not a hobby. It's a war necessity demanding discipline, skills and per sistence. Many home gardeners say heavy rains and bad weather either delayed planting or else ruined their seeds. But experts urge you to replant up to the middle of July, later in the south. Lettuce, turnips. Brussels sprouts, broccoli, kale and tomatoes are good for late planting.
 Victory Gardeners must be re- alistic about gardening skills. In too many communities, OCD's block system of garden leaders hasn't worked out well.

 SHORTAGE OF COOKERS
 The government warns enthusi- asts in cities and built-up subur- ban areas where land is not good for growing that your willingness to plant must be disciplined by your ability to raise good crops economically. Seeds and fertilizer are war equipment and must not be wasted.

 WAR CASUALTY
 Owing to restrictions in the use of paper, there won't be so many embroidery transfer patterns for needleworkers during wartime. Tatting Shuttles, embroidery hoops, knitting and crochet needles of critical metals are also war casual ties in the needlework field.
 AS YE SEW
 Under a new distribution order. WIPE will assure civilians of an adequate, we'll spread out supply of sewing machines. While many of the machines will go to Army, Navy, Lend-Lease and the War Shipping Administration, there will be a reverse set-up for civilian use II purchasers prove that the ma chine will be used more than two or three hours weekly.
 SYNTHETIC RUBBER
 Because of the strides taken dur ing wartime in the development of synthetic rubber, experts believe that the United States will use about 100000 tons annually after the armistice. A good portion of this will go into the manufacture of girdles, bathing suits, athletic equipment, and other civilian goods and prices for such articles are ex- pected' to be much lower than in pre-war days.

 Swordfish will be an added del icacy at dinner tables this summer, with about three million pounds ex- pected in Pacific and Atlantic catches through November. Re- cent imports of copra will assure soap manufacturers adequate sup plies of oil fer their products.

 If East plays the eight-spot or the queen, declarer will decide that if there are four spades in one hand against him, they certainly are not in the East hand. He will lead the f1ve-spot from dummy-and now, should he play the nine-spot from his own hand, or go up with the ace? I can tell you that practically every declarer will go up with the ace, and then find it impossible to prevent East from making trick with his jack of spades.
