Little From Morse

From an increasingly rebellious
Norway, Germany can get fish,
aluminium and alloys-if she can
ship them through mined waters
and the Allied blockade.
One year ago. the Nazis pointed
out that Germany now had in her
hands the rich oil fields, the gran
aries, the farm lands, the iron
deposits and wealthy mineral sup
plies of the Ukraine. All the cir
cumlocution about trategic
Withdrawals" and "energetically
reversing the fighting direction"
does not cover up the loss of the
Ukraine.
While the loss Of Italy also cuts
Germany off from former sulphur
supplies. citrus fruits, olive oil
and a little grain, actually the
capitulation eases the economic
situation in that the Germans will
no longer have to send coal. iron
and industrial and fam machin-
cry. But the weight Of the pSy-
Geological blow is obvious in the
reaction of the home front.

They're Really Designed
To Smash the 7th Column
By DONNA GRACE

Oh. WHAT a day and age!
" The frivolous bonnet has
risen TO the ranks Of the Oman.
That's no joke, either. For the
famous John F'Tederics hat de-
signing team has just come forth
with a collection of luminous
accessories to prevent pedestrian
casualties in dimouts.
Applying an insurance COM
pany's novel slogan, Smash the
7th Column" (Which means the
unnecessary home front acci-
dents), Mr.. John presented his
sparkling creations to millinery
buyers and press representatives
at recent New York showing.
Luminous Paint
While the large, mirror-lined
salon was completely BACKED
out, models paraded about on a
row of luminous patches painted
on the floor. Only the portions
of the hats. bags, belts and cor
Sages that had been treated with
luminous paint were visible 10
the audience.
Some of the mannikins wore
glowing white stockings, which
lent a strange. detached look to
the moving forms. All told, they
seemed like unearthly clouds of
ectoplaSm in another world.
Mr.. Frederics himself guided
each model up and down the
salon, but since he wore no
cleaning paint, he was only the
little man who wasn't there.
Then the lights went on. and
the show was repeated for full
view. Both hats and accesso-
ries in this 7th column class
were exquisite iq d design and
originality. The colors ranged
from white to pink, yellow and
navy, and look in daylight like
any normal fabric.

Give Yourself
A Home Manicure

IF YOU can't spare time for
a session at the beauty shop you
can give yourself fairly effec-
tive cleanup manicure in 20
minutes.
Use the file first. then run the
orange wood stick under the
nail caves, use the beveling file
of emery board. Then give your
hands good old soapy securing.
While the flesh is soft, lift the
cuticle with an orange wood
stick, snip off any shags that
appear. Press nail white under
the caves.
When putting on the glowing
veneer sweep the brush from
nail base TO tip. Put on a light
film, LET it dry, apply a second
one; then your polish won't 60
patchy in a hurry.
Every night apply cuticle
cream and friction the nails.
massage keeps the pink shells
delicate and of good coloring.
Brittle nails are probably due
TO some diet deficiency. The
more oil used the better.

you please give us an idea about

FaShioning A CorSaGe Of them
is a good idea. The central

this some rows of small white
flowers; then some circles of
blue flowers, perhaps corn
flowers 10 make patriotic
red-white-and-blue motif.
Between this grouping and
the lace paper collar that holds
the bouquet firmly together. the
dollar bills may be pertly in
serted, twir le d 10 resemble
leaves.
Or each guest might put her
dollar bill inside a small white
handkerchief, or inside a gaily
designed finger tip towel, for
an extra added attraction"
Or there could be Treasure

Dear Mrs. Beeckman.
Several of my girl friends are

soon. When the shower gifts
are given 10 me should / open
them at once and thank the
gIvers? Or is it proper TO thank
them and not open the gifts?
RUTH.
The girls will want to be told
at once your thanks for the
gifts and your delight in them.
So. as each gift is presented 10
you, say Thank you at once.
then open the gift and express
your reactions enthusiastically.
Please don't do what i have
seen some girls do appear
so eager 10 see what the next
gift is that sheir thanks for the
gift in hand seem too hurried
and therefore inadequate. Re
member, too, that you should.
as soon as possible after the
shower, write a thank-you note
for every shower gift.

Chemically Treated

However, we were told that
the materials had been put
through a chemical treatment
similar to that used on control
boards of planes, tanks and bat
tleship interiors. This does not
affect the wearing qualities of
the treated fabric, at all.
A luminous chapeau will last
as long as an ordinary one, and
will give you added protection
against night-blind motorists.
AS you will note in the accom-
panying photos, only the trim
mings of the hat shows in the
darkness.

TIME OFF TO PLANT
CROPS APPROVED BY
M'NUTT-DAVIS

Wa hington, D. c. (ILNS).-
Leaves of absence to permit industrial
workers living on small farms to
plant and harvest crops are advocated
in joint statement issued by Chair
man Paul " McNutt of the War Man
power Commission and War Food Ad-
ministrator Chester Davis. Mr.. Nc
Mutt said:
'The War Manpower Commission
would welcome plans worked out be-
tween management and labor within
industrial plants whereby such leaves
of absence would be assured. Such
plans, of course, could not include men
having critically short skills, but, it
is felt, men could be released accord
ing to staggered schedules for periods
up to a week without impeding pro-
duction.
'This will require careful planning
and challenges the ingenuity of man
agement and labor; but it can be
done. The test in every case should
be: /. Does the man have land which
would be productive of essential agri-
cultural commodities? 2. Can he be
released for short period without
slowing up plant production?
Arrangements within plants can
be made with management either by
the Union or the Management Labor
Committee.
"It is not the War Manpower Com
missions intention to lay down a pat
tern how workers and management
should work out any plan to release
workers for this purpose, but, rather,
to stimulate the initiative of Ameri-
can management, and labor"
Mr.. McNutt called attention to his
belief and that of Donald Nelson that
short vacations for industrial workers
are desirable during the summer
months as relief from the long hours
and accelerated pace of war produc-
ton. Many plants provide employees
with vacations with pay, he said, and
suggested that many workers may
want to take their vacations at this
time to plant crops. Others, he be-
lieved, might prefer to take their va
cations later for rest. These adjust
ments, he said, could be provided for
in any plan adopted at plant.
