'plumpness. Or it may signify that
it's time to put on a little extra
poundage in order to have the re-
quired curves" which figure-reveal-
ing dresses demand.
/ 1t also may mean that you'll be
interested in a new "underpretty'
which currently is the pride and joy
OF Washington corset department.
This is specially designed bras
siere to enhance the appearance Of
the slim-bosomed woman, giving an
entirely natural appearance with
the utmost in wearable practically.
Actually, it's a complete bra with a
permanently built-in wall of pad
ding that adds inches to the figure.
Because it's made all in one piece,
there is neither discomfort nor in
congruous appearance Adjustable
shoulder straps and back closing as
sure a perfect fit, and it launders
easily, retaining its original shape
and undetectable features. It's
available in broadcloth or in satin
and lace combination. and certainly
should prove practical under the
slim lined dresses and sweaters we IL
be donning from now on. -.
Our fashion scouts report that the
very newest thing in ski trousers are
Slacks made of melton cloth. This
as you may or may not know, is the
fabric which the British Army has
found so completely wearable and
which does nicely in feminine ap-
parel as we'll. Those being shown al
the moment are in navy with a strap
under the instep to keep them snug
at the ankle. Suggest, too. that II
you have no skiing expeditions YOU
might invest in pair for bicycle
riding or maybe for just keeping
warm around the house. :.
And that, in turn. reminds us thai
billet doux from the owl declares
that January is the proper month to
concentrate on warm clothing for
cold houses. Sure, we know we've
been talking about heavy robes
shawls, long "undies" and the like
since last October but a reminder
seems to be in order once again. Via
Owl, the United States Weather
Bureau tells us to watch out, in
January, for the coldest weather OF
the year. (And, of course, you're up
on the problems of fuel rationing. }
In addition, we are told that the
normal clothing weight OF women
averages only one-third the weight
of men-so the obvious answer is:
Dress warmly for your comfort and
your health.
Stocks of warm robes, slips, panties
and the like are depleted since
Christmas, it's true. But there still
are practical and smart looking bits
OF attire which will eliminate the
necessity of sitting practically in the
middle Of the fireplace or going to
bed wearing last years mink.
Scientists say We shiver to keer
warm. Proper clothing is a much
more comfortable answer.

don't see why people who walk
on sidewalks can't learn to obey
traffic rules just as well as people
who ride in cars. Now that walk

do, anyhow, it's high time that
people obeyed pedestrian traffic
rules.
In America you walk on the right

Get Part of Your
Exercise While
Doing Chores
Make Certain That
Posture Is Right
For Each Task
By Patricia Lindsay

1t is surprising how quickly the
leading beauty salons have met the
challenge of working women. How
about our beauty, now that we work
8 to 10 hours day?" asked the army
of war helpers who previously had
time to spend at salons.
One of the leaders Immediately
devised exercises to combat fatigue
and to correct poor posture habits
Then they cautioned women what
not to do during their working
hours. such as working at a table
which is too low, hunching over their
work, pushing truck loads in the
wrong way, carrying things with
one arm only, and standing in bad
posture at their work in factories.
They issued little booklet instruct
ing women in the right way to do

corp. BILL TRAVERS had tried
" NOT to remember that it was the
day before Christmas. He'd played
a game with himself, pretending not
to notice the heightened spirit
around camp. But he couldn't keep
kidding himself when he saw the
giant spruce being set up in front
of the barracks. Today was De-
cember twenty fourth, tomorrow
would be Christmas and Norma
hadn't written.
They'd first come to grips on their
honeymoon. They had planned to
take a short motor trip up north
but, when they'd reached the point
where they were supposed to turn
back, Norma had insisted they go
to Canada for a few days. Bill had
tried to put his foot down, but Norma
had argued and cried When Bill
saw her pouting, young face, so pale
and set, his determination crumbled
like house of sand. They went to
Canada; Bill returned to work five
days late and had to look fer new
job.
Despite that, he continued to give
in, no matter how far off the beam
she was. At first he backed down
