What We might call typical
touches" also will be seen this year.
Red white and blue ribbons ap-
pear on corsages. and there is a
trend to War stamp models in which
the stamps are either tucked right
into the cOrsage or attached to
its ribbons. Newest idea is to at
tach sweetheart service pins" to
corsages whenever the occasion
seems appropriate. It's thought
for those who'd like to give a last
ing gift in addition to the flowers.
Even II you're far away from
home you can send flowers by wire"
for Valentines Day and include any
message you like. AS you probably
know, the telegraph companies do
not accept greetings" these days,
but the florist can send any mes
sage he, or rather you, desire. So
when you wire" flowers you get
double value, so to speak.
Generally speaking, your floral
valentine may be as "fussy" or as
uncomplicated as you like. How
ever, the trend will be toward lovely
flowers made into normal" cor
sages or those contained in vases
symbolic of the occasion. What
ever their form however, valen-
tine flowers will be sentimental
enough to please even the most
romantic lass.
P. S.: While we're on the sub
ject of sentimental "pretties" for
gift-giving, don't overlook the array
of valentine beauty aids in spe-
cial packagings. You will find
delightful selection Of everything
from perfumes to sachets In appro-
pirate trappings and they do make
the loveliest presents. You might
even tuck one of the cosmetic
valentines" in with your flower
order for something mighty "spe-
cial."

any valentine giver could desire.
Flower shop managers believe
that the public wants to get Its
moneys worth more than ever this
year, so they are putting less en-
phaSls than usual on novelties. How
ever. there are charming gift con-
tanners, heart-shaped in china, glass
and wire, Some of the other wire
holders are delightful, too, in the
form Of graceful swans, tiny wheel
barrows or flower baskets that look
more like lace than like wire. Most
of the shops are going in for heart
shaped boxes and paper frills on old
fashioned looking arrangements.
incidentally. the most discussed
flower Of the moment Is the violet
which has made an important
comeback" in the floral fashion
picture. During the last war violets
were very popular and In this one
they seem likely to be favored once
again. Usually made up into cor
sages with paper frills, they may
boast a red rose. a gardenia or red
carnation in the center.
Naturally. all the red flowers are
outstanding for Valentine giving.
Sentimental red roses, carnations
and crimson plants such as tulips
and azaleas are available. In adj
dition, orchids both large and small.
gardenias, camellias and all the as
sorted spring flowers are in evidence.

Make your new lamp the focal

and orange blossoms. Also, it is
then that they acquire technique
in handling men that the girl who
is kept segregated in the family
circle never learns. She is always
too standoffish or too eager. She
takes men too seriously. 1t is only
the girl who has played with boys
all her life who knows how to run
after a chap, while making him
think she Is running away from
him.
1t is parental jealousy that makes
old maids by a mother and father

Many an advantageous marriage has
been nipped in the bud by father
making ribald remarks about her
suitors clothes, or the way his hair
was cut. or the kind of an automo-
bile he drove: or by mother criti-
cizing the way he walked, and al
ways harping upon the fact that
his great-grandfather was born on
the wrong side Of the tracks. Moth
ing was really wrong with the lad.

Ten Minutes
Of Exercises
Aid Beauty
Help to Overcome
Effect of Long
Hours at Desk
b. Patricia Lindsay

Desk sitters or bench sitters
should devote 10 minutes In the
morning If possible) to special ex-
ercises in order to counteract the i'll
effects Of sitting for hours on end.
Such exercises not only assure bet
ter health, but they enhance ones
beauty Of figure and face.
Here is a simple routine to follow
and to memorize-Which will
serve until you have time to men,
orize more specific corrective move
ments for your special figure prob
lens:
stand in good posture In front
of an open window or IN we'll
aired room. Place hands on hips,
push head back to poised position.
Then deeply breathe through the
nose, filling lungs to capacity. and
slowly exhale through the mouth.
Repeat several times.

stretcO first to the right. back to
position, then to the left. back to
position Slowly, rhythmically and
do stretch. Keep knees straight.
Stand in good posture. place
hands on hips. Bending from the
waist, and keeping knees and legs
straight. rotate the upper part of
body-first clockwise 10 times, then
counterclockwise. Do make a big
circle and stretch. Let the head
follow the body-do not push 1t
ahead of waist movement.
+Kneel on the floor, hands on
hips, upper body erect. Slowly. bend
backward as far as you can go.
Then return to position. Practice
until you can bend so far back that
your hair will touch the floor. But
do not strain your body. Stretch a
bit more each day. In two weeks
time you will be very timber. This
is an excellent exercise for girls at
sedentary jobs.

He said during the last war there
were here at home many times as
many deaths caused by the flu cpl

field of battle. The toll numbered
$4,000 soldiers who died In canton
ments and approximately 100000
civilians. This must not happen
again.

proper system for disposal of pre-
pared tin cans.
There seems to have been some
question as to why the cans must
be prepared before collection. Here
are the reasons: Washing pre-
vents deterioration OF the coating
and contamination of the de-tin-

toms permits free flow of the fluid
over all the surfaces Of the can, and
flattened cans occupy less space

Salvage Rules
Elaborated
BY Betsy Cas,ceH,
Women's News Editor.

Women's News Editor
Salvage for Victory is one Of
our most important battle cries
these days, and, unlike other slo-
gans, must last In all its full mean
ing for the duration. Latest word
from the District of Columbia Sal
wage Committee urges Washington
housewives to continue the fine CO.
operation they have shown in all
salvage drives and clarifies certain
aspects Of the situation that may
have confused some of you in the
past.
Critically needed are metals, rub
Der, rags, household fats, prepared
tin cans, hosiery and collapsible tin
tubes
Look in every nook and Granny of
your home for any objects that
are not in active use and that meet
those specifications. Make rou-
tine system of saving fats and pre-
pairing used tin cans. Here is how
you dispose Of them:
Keep metals. rubber and rags in
separate containers. You may either
sell your material to a waste mate
rial dealer or give 1t to a charity
collecting agency. If you have over
$50 pounds OF material, waste
material dealer or charity collec-
ton agency will be sent to collect
it. For such collections, telephone
Republic 8488.
Small accumulations, and some
larger ones, too. may be disposed
of through the D. c. Salvage Corps
authorized in your neighborhood
Take your material to your nearest
officlal salvage depot.
Save household fats carefully, but
only those which you cannot use in
your cooking. Strain the drippings
into a wide-mouthed tin can, not
into any other container. Keep in a
cool place until the container is full
and then take it to your meat dealer
who will pay you 3 cents a pound for
the fats.
Tin cans must be properly pre-
pared to be available for war use
Save all food cans, wash them
thoroughly after emptying the con-
tents and remove the paper labels
Cut out the bottoms as we'll as the
tops, and tuck these inside. Flatten
the cans by stepping on them, but
do not hammer them. Keep the
prepared cans in a separate ano
suitable container, such as basket
box or barrel Do not mix the cans
with either trash or garbage. II
you live in a private home, place
the tin cans prepared only in their
container beside your GARBAGE or
your regular GARBAGE collection
day. The Refuse Department will
collect them. Don't worry-they
won't 60 into the garbage. They
are put in special hopper on the
trucks.
If you live in an apartment, check

floor polish or cone shaped cans
are NOT wanted for salvage. And
evaporated milk cans are not worth
saving, the authorities say.
All silk hosiery, mixtures Of silk
and cotton, silk and nylon. nylon
and rayon, and nylon and cotton are
needed. Turn in your WORKOUT
and discarded stockings at the ho-
siery counter of your favorite store,
AFTER the stockings have been
thoroughly washed.
Collapsible tubes should be turned

Fortunately, most mothers are
able to take the development OF
their children in their stride and
not expect them to remain per-
petual infants who prefer their
society to the gangs. and who
would rather hold mammals hand
than to hold hands with some
curly headed little schoolmate.
Thus are they enabled to view
Mamie's first date and johnny
first crush with philosophy and
humor instead OF morbidness. But,
for all Of that. parental jealousy
for men are afilicted with it as well
as women, is responsible for far
more warped lives and unhappiness
than We realize.
Curiously enough, the Oldest girl
In family is the one who Is often
est offered up as a sacrifice to the
green-eyed monster. Her parents
don't admit even to themselves
that their attitude toward her is
prompted by sheer jealousy, but 1t
is. They can't bear the thought Of
her being grownup and going to
parties and having beaux and good
times away from them, 50 they de-
prive her OF every vestige Of per-
sonal liberty and make her q pris-
