Easier Hats
To Be Smaller
But Plentiful
BY ANN iSTEVICK

WASHINGTON, Feb. 81. - 1t
looks like Easter bonnets very
nearly as usual. Of course there
won't be fancy imported straws
from Italy and China, for most
OF those have been gone for the
last two seasons. Synthetic s;raws
are expected to be abundant with
some new types Some of the
cheaper types formerly made part
ly OF paper probably won't appear
on the market this year.
The rayon shortage will mean
that hat-makers' quotas of rayon
material for ribbon or cloth hats
Will be a little less than last year.
but the milliners' voluntary code
of conservation of materials will
probably make this amount cover
as many heads as ever. The
clouds of yelling seen on hats in
recent seasons will diminish be-
fore long. Manufa curing facilities
are in use for nets for war uses.
GOOD GOODS
Your troubles with poor quality
chlldren's clothes may be helped
some by the new program which
names specified amounts of cloth
for various garments. That's about
as far as it can 60, however. ac-
cording to War Production Board
textile experts Shrinkage and fad.
ing are hard to control in war
time manufacture, when many
chemicals cannot be procured.
Specifications beyond the re-
qulrement Of amounts of yardage
are hard to set up without estab-
fishing uniform standardized gar
ments, it is felt in WPB. So you'll
have to work out your own quail
ity tests when you shop.
ODDS AND ENDS
Margaret Hickey, chairman of
The National Women's Advisory
Committee of the War Manpower
Commission has asked women's
clubs to look into their local prob
lem of recruiting women for war
work, Women are still needed in
labor shortage areas although the
need has. decreased in a few
places New cents-per-pound
prices are temporarily in effect
for cut-up poultry. Legs and

CITY Will MUTE
BIRTHDAY TODAY

The birthday of George Wash
ington, born 212 years ago at

burg, Va, will be observed by a
number of offices in the city to-
day although no special SER

main open for service, as will
federal offices throughout the

The birthday of the great pa
triot, who led American forces to
victory through war, and then
helped to shape the course Of the
young country's government after
ward, finds Wilmington and the
nation in the midst of the third
year of the greatest war ever to
rage throughout the earth.
Stories that surround Washing
ton make him a legendary figure.
Versatile, rich, born gentleman.
soldier, scholar, statesman, broad
traveller, humanitarian, the histo-
rians and the biographers have
found rich treasures for research
in the life of the man.
It is said that on one occasion
he visited Wilmington. On a tour
of the south, Washington was en-
tertained in the beautiful Ounce
home, Front and Dock streets,
April Is, 1871.
