Can the women who make sur- gical dressings for the boys who are wounded at the front afford to be any more independent than these boys? The army probably isn't run to the exact satisfaction of every soldier, but they can't quit in q huff and turn in their uniforms just because of that. Neither should any volunteer workers in this country.
 The volunteer worker who quits doesn't hurt the executive who annoyed her she hurts the American boys wounded in battle.
 When many women work together all is seldom sweetness and light. There will be hurt feelings, real or imaginary sights, pickering and cri- ticisms. But nobody has a moral right to quit working because of it.. A MEAN VIEWPOINT
 Volunteer war workers are not working for any individual in the organization. They are working for our fighting men.
 Volunteers who refuse to work because of some personal grievance say, in effect, T don't care what happens to my country or Its fight ing men so long as nm able to put Mrs. War-Worker- Leader in her place.

New York.--A new fashion type let's call 1t Junior Madam"-is emerging on the fashion scene. and 1t beliooves every little woman to whip out her tape measure and style sense and see If she's It.
 "Junior Miss" has long meant Q certain size, range and style, characteristically very young, often babified. But now clothes that are called Junior Miss" are definitely of two different styles. Sometimes they look insistently girlish. Other times they are quite suitable for the mature woman--or Junior Madam"
 Typically contrasting are two spring numbers seen recently, both called Junior Miss" One was Q pi- quant navy and white checked taf- feta pinafore with built-iia ruffles that tattled its "Sweet-and young" age a block away. This Junior Miss" dress might look pretty awk- ward on mature type of woman.
 But the other. slim beige suit with navy braid and white dickey, is an ageleSs costume that would grace a woman of junior propor. tions, even if she were tho Sophis- ticated type. This suit is a cue for the new Junior Madam who doesn't want to look as If she were trying to seem younger, but who does want simplicity, style and fit at a price.
 You'll be hearing more of such clothes this spring. The world of fashion Is sitting up and taking mo- tice, for their popularity is boon- ing.
 But before you go planning a wardrobe of these clothes, you'd bet ter get the size angle straight. Ma turally they are not the same sizes as the so-called misses and women's models. The outstanding difference is that Junior Miss clothes are shorter waiSted, are designed for short figures and run from size g to IT. instead of from 10 to 18.
 Not every Junior Miss dress will have exactly the same dimensions. You might compare your measure mentS with the size chart of lead- ing maker of Junior Miss clothes. Il &1VAC, oAAS 10 iAduS AOA ShA OI woman feet, 4 inches tall, with q B 1-2-inch bust, A 1-2-inch waist, and 35-inch hips, measured g inches below the waist.

 Though machinery for beauty parlors may no longer be Ynanu- factured, you're not going to have to do entirely without the morale building effects of Q new per1na- iaent or a new hair style. Some re- pair parts will be available in order to keep beauty parlorS operating. Chemical ingredients for hair dyes, and waving solutions are somewhat tight.

 FACE POWDER
 Some types of tale have been cut out of essentials, yet face pow ders seem to be bearing up well. So far no shortage is anticipated. COLOGNES
 You'll notice 6 different consis- tency in the new wartime colognes. They don't contain as much alcohol. They'll resemble lotions more and more and some will seem like a thin, liquid cream. Tn some, aroma tic chemicals are used for scent. DEODORANTS
 These are musts for American women-according to surveys--and seem to be in good shape. They use no materials required for war and no production curtailment is expected.

 You needn't become frozen face when room temperature goes below 70-instead, just stoke your own body furnace.
 That's the advice of Dr. Jay B. Nash. noted health and recreation expert, and it's pretty timely beauty counsel just now. There's plenty of cold in the year yet a1d even if you've converted your house furnace from oil to coal, you still must conserve. Anthracite people say therell be enough coal If there's no waste.
 The lady who feels chilly gen. erally looks it-- and what chases charm quicker? But Dr. Nash points out that when personal heat control is in good working order, you don't feel chilly. Reason: blood vessels contract instantly with tenn perature fall; this cuts heat-radiat- ing surface; thus, more heat Is re- tained In the body.
 You must turn on the switch, however, with exercise. Which routine, you use is less important than using some. pr. Nash suggests, if you've had long hothouse career, that you start your program with rom temperature of 60 or 69. When you're accustomed to that, turn your thermostat down Q few more degrees.
 Novel idea: get the whole family to go through some paces in the living room-it will enliven the card game. or the reading. After Q five or ten-minute session, if you feel cold within an hour, exercise again, Try some solo, daily, in your bed- room. And don't forget, there's there's comfort in that new war time fashion-a good snug union suit. Hhere are some old-favorite routines-

CrOcheted Head or
 Shoulder Shawl

They're everywhere-one sees them on Fifth Avenue worn as head coverings instead of hatS-in lovely browns worn with mink coats, in bright colors worn with evening coats at the theater and opera. They're the darlingS of the moment as they can be worn with any sort of costume.
 If worn as a shawl, the weight is just right to afford nice, warm protection across the shoulders and chest. Make it to match your favor ite dress or sports outfit. This one is done in maize yellow and has a glorious big poppy embroidered on in red wool. Green leaves provide 6 splastly touch to the design. Fringe is in the same red the pony Is done in.
 If you make 1t to wear primarily co a head shawl, do it in Q color that will contrast with your coat, your skating or skiing outfit. Wear it on the head as shown in the illustration or place the point direct- ly over the forehead. This Is the way the modern @fascinat0g'' is worn as Q head covering. It's very easily cTocheted and the big flower design Is worked on the finished triangle.
