Beauties Hints
Men Can Borrow

NEA Staff Writer

There are husbands and fathers
sons, too-who would welcome aids
to preserve bathfresh grooming, and
keep clothes clean longer, similar to
those we use, if they could be con-
WINGED that no manly traditions
were imperiled," writes woman
reader. Have you any arguments"
The answer to that one Is: Tell
the man of your house that other
men use deodorants-he-men, too,
like doctors, athletes and G. I. Joes.
Proof comes from one deodorant
manufacturers survey which shows
that 80 per cent of its customers are
tough-fiSt men like these I cite
a figure that's on the rise since the
laundry and cleaning situation has
become household problem.
If he halks at using yours, be-
cause it smacks of the feminine,
give him a package which he won't
mind. Storing in his locker rooms
or luggage or keeping on the shelf
in his own bath cabinet.
Should he want to check mois-
ture as well as odor, give him an
anti-perspirant. Either liquid or
cream will give him and his shirts
and coats up to five days protection
depending upon how active life
he leads, and how warm or con-
stricting his clothes are.

Another two timer from the Nc
Cardell workrooms is the balloon
cloth tunic dress in bright or pastel
colors, which can be worn as a dress
or as tllnic over pair of Stacks.
The double-purpose backless dress
and the jumper, two of the styles
which helped Claire McCardell win
the prize, are given an entirely new
treatment in her advance collec-
ton. One new jumper-it's yellow
checked and looks youthful enough
with a black exercise suit. Even If
a girl hates exercise, she'll still want
to wear this, and use the black snug
giles underneath for panties. The de-
signer's new backless dress has
shoulder top that buttons on to pre-
serve the proprieties, and unbuttons
when you want to go bare.

as it is on women.
If the idea spreads, not only
under-Staffed hospitals will bene-
fit. But women themselves will.
For business men sc.ubbing floors
after dinner at night ought to dis
pei once and for all that old myth
about the tired business man.
SAUCE FOR THE GANDER
He never has been any more
tired than his wife, who spends
her day cleaning a house and TAX
ing care of children, and then is
supposed to make life easy for her
husband when he comes home. He
never has been more tired than
his secretary, who does most of his
dirty work for him during the day
and then goes home to cook her
dinner, wash dishes, clean her
apartment and press the dress she
intends to wear to work the next
day.
Yet both the working girl and
the busy housewife have found time
somehow to put in hours at the
job Of nurses aide.
So if they can do it, so can the
tired business man-who may, by
the way, find out that bed-making,
scrubbing, and washing clothes are
harder jobs than he has ever ad-
mitted.

Teach Children
How To Make
Foods They Like
BY GAYNOR MADDOX
NEA Staff Writer

Education for living begins In the
home. Even very young children
should learn the basic rules Of mod
ern nutrition and how to prepare
simple dishes. Many grammar and
high schools now teach food use and
preparation on the theory that it is
every citizens duty to know how to
eat for physical fitness and national
defense.
When possible, let the children
cook something they, themselves,
will enjoy. This cookie recipe, for
example, is chocolate (they love
chocolate; cookies are fine for the
workers and school lunch box and,
of course, grand for parties. So let's
make a batch right now.

beginning you may become skill
full in the wrong way! And from
the standpoint OF the patient that
would be unfortunate indeed.
Learning to bend from the hips,
instead Of bending the back, Is very
important for the conservation OF
your own strength, so watch your
self carefully and do this always
when caring for a bed patient.
TURN TOWARD YOU
To turn the patient toward you
when he is lying on his back, slip
your hand under the knees and
lift them until the soles Of the feet
rest on the bed. This is called
flexing the knees. Next, place one
hand on his farther shoulder, and
the other over back Of the hip.
and draw him toward you. To turn
the patient from you, fix the knees
to comfortable elevation. Pass one
hand as far as possible under the
shoulders, and the other as far as
possible under the thighs. Raise the
patient slightly and draw him to-
ward you, gradually turning his body
away from you. until 1t rests on
the side.
It would be good idea TO prac-
tice this on q well person until you
get the. feel Of 1t, before you try
it On q sick one.

heart. Mrs. Sobel bid three hearts
and North went to six hearts. A
small diamond was opened by East,
and all the declarer had to do was
to lead heart, go up with dummy's
