ford, New Zealand born American citizen, who is general chairman of New York's Anzac club. Her wards are Anzac Australia New Zealand Army Corps) youngsters who are training in this country and Can- ada.
 Miss Luxford godmothers the Anzacs with devotion, but without pay. As they stream through her domain by the hundreds each week, she takes them sightseeing, sews on their buttons, listens to their trou- bles, Shelps them write letters and buy gifts for the girls back home. Also she makes shortwave broad casts and recordings of their voices to be sent to their families, 10000 miles away.
 Her experiences call for contrast ing adjectives-poignant, as when a young Anzac speaks across the world to his dying father; humor- ouS, as when another youth boasts over the air waves: "Last night New York had blackout. Well, I had a blond out; anxious, as when she gets frantic telegrams from lads after they leave these parts: "Lost passport and wallet somewhere in New York. Please find" Or "Am in clink for overstaying leave. Please square me with commanding officer" !"
 The Anzacs are mostly in RAF gray and blue. Some are getting their pilot training in California, some in Michigan and other mid- west states, some in Florida. Down there, one whole squadron of An- zacs has married American girls.
 Miss LuXford was a leader in f1nd- ing a home and headquarters for these visitors from down under. It's in the comfortable Phi Gamma Delta clubhouse.
 The New York club, first of its kind in the U. S., is officially known as the American Hospital ity Center for Australian and New Zealand Fighting Forces" Similar Hospitality Centers have been es- tablished across the country, in Boston, Washington, Detroit, Chi cago, Los Angeles and San Fran cisco.
 The University of Pennsylvania club joined in sponsoring the move ment, which has been endorsed by the Australian and New Zealand governments and the British War Relief. Sir Robert Appleby is &C., lively interested, as are many prominent AnZac- Americans
 Like "One-W Woman USO" Lux ford, they believe the rapid spread of Anzac clubs Is inspired by Ameri- cans desire to repay the warm hospitality extended to our boys of the A. E. P. by the people of Aus tralia and New Zealand.

 Color, the time -honored deter minaTt of women's beauty, takes second place nowadays beside total effect'-the pleasing, all-in-oTle key appearance which conveys a strik- ing personality trait.
 So says Charming Hare, distin- gllished American portrait painter ] who has tested the idea in paint 1 ing such diversified female per- sonages as Sally Rand, Bea Lille, Diana Barrymore, and the Arch duchess Franz Josef.
 women no longer can be dis missed as blond or brunei" he tells me. Color is important, but small. What counts is the woman's tout ensemble carriage, makeup, coiffure, clothes, all of which are consciously or sub-consciously har- lnonized to point up a characterize tic she has decided to present to the world"
 For itastance2
 Well, Ginger Rogers-twinklingly nirtatious ..; Hedy Lamarr-dra- lnatic femme fatale Greta Gar bo-pensively mysterious Olivia de Havilland-appealingly feminine Ilka Chase devaStatingly striking.
 Blond or brunei, the artist nain- tairls, the woman who puts her mind to 1t can point up any char acteric that's in her makeup. Of course, would advise you to know yourself fairly well before you go planning a wardrobe or makeup scheme intended to italicize any particular quality. For what's sad- der than a woman without pro- i1ounced acting talent trying to look like what she isn't? More conn., mon, however, is the failure to point up any particular quality.
 Most of my sitters," remarks the painter, "come to their first sitting in clothes that are charmingly in conformity with a particular style of beauty. And I rarely have to suggest a pose, for the sitter has a habitual one which is pleasing. They understand themselves, and look as if they'd thought of themselves in terms of a carefully planned canvas"
 And there's @ cue. When you think of yourself as @ whole pie ture, you don't come up with a twinkling f1irtatious dress and a devastatingly striking hairdo. You hang together-which is another way of saying you have the neces- sary pleasing total effect.

Courtesy Of Parents Magazine WTINDOW screens and screen wv doors are particularly vulner-
 wy able parts of house, needing yearly care that may well be pro- vided by the family handy man. And it is good common sense that If they are given regular care by the home-owner doing his own jobs, for the duration or for life, repairs and upkeep will be reduced to minimums. Window Screens
 Window screens usually are l1imsy affairs at best, then often receive poor painting jobs and are subject to carelessness during winter storage. Screens often stain window frames with rusted hardware, rusted wire cloth. or poor paint which dilutes and dribbles down onto painted wood. work.
 Parents Magazine recommends that the hardware with which screens are attached tO the window frame be painted to keep lt from rusting Wire cloth should be rustpr0of, or treated SO as not to shed stain. Brush t thor. oughly with kerosene or gasoline. let it dry, and apply a brush coss oi thinned spar vaFnlsh. or clear lacquer This precaution prevents the wire cloth from Fusling og diec0aortng and dripping stained water down over outside paint Do this spring and fail and your wire cloth will last several times as lond. and always look better.

 Peanuts have become one of the most important of our wartime foods. Responding to a request ot the United States Department of Agriculture for a record breaking production, growers in 12 southern states piled up a crop totaling al- most three billion pounds. The ma jority of the crop will be converted into badly needed oil, peanut flour and peanut butter.
 Exceptionally rich in protein and yitamin B1, peanuts are a good source of phosphorous and have an appreciable amount of iron. Peanut flour is an easy way to increase the food value of baked products, cer- calls, and other dishes, and is now being made available in stores throughout the country.
 Peanut oil is an excellent sub- stitute for olive oil and Its high smoking point 450 degrees - makes 1t ideal for deep-fat frying of chicken, fish, doughnuts, potato chips and other foods.
 Peanut Butter Omelet
 Serves 3-4
 One-half teaspoon salt, few grains pepper, 4 tablespoons milk whole eggs, 1-3 cup peanut butter rvaporated milk or cream.
 Add salt, pepper and milk to the eggs and beat until light. Pour mixture in 0 hot greased frying pan and cook slowly until firm Spread with a mixture of peanut butter softened with undiluted cvaporated milk or cream, and fold Serve on hot platter.

Their craving to retain their fem- mine good looks even while doing the work of men is so important to them that several war plants have installed well-equipped beauty ssl- ons for its women workers. Many of them are open IA hours a day, so that rirls from all three shifts can get a manicure, facial, hair do or whatever, after their days or nights work is done.
 The women's determination not to look like factory workers may have some effect on the men who work beside them.
 MANICURE FOR MACHINIsTs?
 If a slim young girl can work at an oily machine and come of the job looking trim, neat and well-groomed, why can't the men who run machines do the same?
 If that thought occurs to men, factories may have to put in bar Der shops with manicuring a speciality for the men employees. And somebody may decide that men should trade their overalls for bright-colored slacks.
 Women brighten up business of- fees when they moved into the busi- ness world. And they may succeed ill introducing fashion into factories. They certainly seem to be trying.

FIXING THINGS AROUND THE HOUSE

keep them true and rigid, place the screen flat on a bench or floor and screw good.sized steel angle braces in place at each corner. Buy the angle braces at the five-and-ten or the hardware store, and be sure the screws are as large as the holes in the braces will take. The braces ought to be about { inches long on a side.
 If the screen is already in bad shape at the corners 1t first should be trued up by using steel square, and then held in place with renailing or.gluing, or with corrugated fasteners, accord. ing to how the corner joint was con. structed in the first place. Set the corner steel angles down into the sur. face of the wood frame of the screen after chiseling out enough of the wood to allow 1t to be done. Give the whole frame good sandpapering and then coat 1t with linseed oil, later ape plying two coats cs outside paint.
 Sagging Door Screens
 For the screen door that sags and refuses to close tight the remedy is similar, only there is an additional trick which will do wonders. First, take the door of and square it up with a carpenters steel square, or mark out a perfect rectangle on a floor upon which the screen can be laid. Fix up the corners with steel angle braces and when you are buying the angle braces also buy . or 4.inch turnbuckle. And bring home enough strong wire to reach diagOnally across the screen, with . few Inches to spare.
 Screw . 9t.inch eye bolt into the inside face of the stile of the screen door that has the hinges also attached to 1t. The stiles of any door are the vertical boards forming both sides of It's construction. Then screw . sim- liar eye bolt into the bottom of the other stile. both eye bolts about 3 inches from the top and bottom of the stiles Make neat twist of the wire through the eye bolt at the top. then through the eye at one end Of the tuEnbuckle Leave enough stretch of wire to reach from the corner of the doOg t0 about the center of the screen. oT where there ls q wood crosspieco near the middle of the screen.

 Washington, Jan. 23.-There are IA different sizes of canned goods, and obviously ration point values can't bet set on all sizes. A sim- pier method will beadopted, Charts will be posted in all groceries with groups of sizes of the same point value. For example: all cans of fruit juice containing from one to four ounces may have the same point value; all holding from four tot seven ounces another point value, and so on.

 Grade and prices will have nothing to do with point values. You'll "pay" exactly the same points for an inferior grade of canned peas as you will for de luxe grades. So, though every one will be given the same amount of points to spend, 1t doesn't mean
