choose it for durability more than
anything else. You're going to de-

you'll be pleasantly surprised to dis

dresses as with your more casual
clothes.
There will be plenty of inexpens-
i've shoes still available, but we say
now, as we have at least hundred
times in the past. that it's a fine idea
to concentrate on quality wherever
possible. Don't spend your money
foolishly but buy the best you can
so that YOU will get adequate re-
turns on your investment. We also
have feeling that this new regu-
lation will insure the return of
the closed-toe, closed heel shoe.
which has been trying to make
comeback for couple of seasons.
The plain, unromantic reason, as
we see it. is that stockings, too,
are not as plentiful as in the past,
and there will be many a patriotic

You will, of course, take better

run down until you're walking

Instead of letting soles wear

Be conscious of your shoes and
handle them with care. Don't climb

using shoe horn; don't slip them
of under the table and let them get

Why Tuesdays
Stampede?
By Helen Torf

The recent exhibition Of women
storming the stores to buy clothing
with the obvious intention OF hoard
ing 1t against rationing is some
thing that has disguised every
thinking individual. This weeks
panic-stricken purchasing has been
as absurd as It was unneces-
sary. and the rumors which spread
all over town and which were un-
questioningly accepted by women
precipitated the most uncivilized
behavior in years.
Unfortunately 1t indicates that
women prefer to accept the whis-
pered information put out by I'M
informed people rather than the
clear, logical and concise report
given by Government officials in
charge Of rationing. Because some
one said that clothes would be
frozen as of midnight, February 9,
or spending limited to $50 a year
or that ration books already were
on their way. there ensued the most
ridiculous stampede Of women to
department. stores. Even though 1t
was announced that such a pro-
gram. even II contemplated, could
not get into high gear for several
months. women completely disre-
garded the facts and sought to
stock their wardrobes with boarded
garments.
They bought clothes too large and
too small for them. either intending
to alter them or return them when
the turnult and shouting died. They
refused to leave the stores at closing
time and insulted the salespeople
who had orders not to serve them
after hours. They bought, appar-
emily. with no thought OF well-se-
lected duration clothes" They
bought just to be buying. And they
acted like savages while engaging
IN this sartorial sabotage.
It's quite blow to think that
American women are 50 susceptible
to rumor, so unthinking and panicky
that the events of this week could
have taken place. And 1t is too bad
that the fine record of cooperation
displayed by SO many really patri-
otto women should be dimmed by
this stampede of rumor-Uusers
Those who have stood steadfast
against malicious whispers. who
nave saved fats and tin cans and
nylons, who have refused to pur-
chase "black market" meats or to

War Games Very
Popular With
Youngsters
No Cause for Fear;
Natural Instinct
For Expression
By Lettuce Lee Street,

~ LPfffce Lee NfrePH
Walking along an attractive street
IN suburban development, my
friend said In a shocked voice, Look
at those boys playing war! What
can their mothers be thinking of to
allow them to play such rough
games! They will grow up to be
gangsters and roughnecks. The war
Is frightful enough as 1t Is without
letting our youngsters pretend that
they are fighting, tool"
The boys In question made up a
lively. hilarious group of warmly
clad, well-nourished boys ranging in
age anywhere from 7 to II years. I
am sure that elsewhere In the same
neighborhood there we're smaller
fellows and their sisters engaged in
the same thrilling sort of game.
Some of the boys had toy guns,
others had sticks, but all were
shouting at the tops of their lungs
and shooting straight and fast.
Bang! Bang! You're dead!" they
yelled, and the ''dead' man would
crash to the ground, but not for
long. Up he would jump. almost at
once, healed and keen for battle.
The young woman who took such
q long faced view Of the war play we
witnessed really spoke impetuously,
before she had given the subject
due thought. She had not listened
10, or read, the opinions of COM
petent child psychiatrists who could
have explained to her why she had
no cause for alarm over the future
mental health of those members Of
our young generation, as far as war
IKE attitudes are concerned.
would like to reassure any
mothers who may feel disturbed
over the tendency they notice in
their little boys to play ferociously,
10 assume belligerent stance at the
slightest provocation and to beg for
al manner of war inspired toys such
- guns, pistols, tanks. airplanes and
% on. It does not seem unnatural
10 me for a gently reared young
woman to view with astonished agi-
tation this unexpected f1erceness
that has suddenly sparkled In her
child's nature. She thought he was
q quiet, sensible little boy. now he
reveals himself as a veritable killer!
A mother who becomes alarmed over
this situation may blame the war
for Its violent influence upon her
son, she will think his character may
be marred forever and she may be-
come so upset that she attempts to
hush-hush talk about the war and
hides magazines or newspapers that
show photographs Of land, sea and
ar battles. !,
Truly, she should never do this,
and she need not be concerned be-
cause-it is natural for children to
play f1ghtirg games. They have
done 50 always and viii continue;
this war has made games Of modern
warfare popular. II it were not for
the war these boys would be playing
cowboy and Indians, bandits, pirates
and so on. Further, it is natural
for boys to initiate heroes they look
DIP to with alteration. it is good for
them to feel this way for it helps
formulate high ideals and aspira-
tons. The small boy OF 1943 has
heroes aplenty to choose from, of
course he pretends he is an ace, a
submarine commander, Ranger
and so on, during every waking hour
