DETREATING snow shows all

others look like nothing more
than patches of mud.

Soldiers S
And Sirens
By HELEN ROWLAND

RE you one of those girls
IA who becomes a little green
eyed whenever she hears or
reads of the beauty or charm of
Australian or English girls?
And did you get sore tjust as l
did when Sgt. John F. Coleman,
home on furlough, was quoted as
saying that Australian girls are
lust as beautiful and far more
natural than the American
girl ?
Well then, just stop worrying
and making lines in your face;
because there's only one thing
that those girls have that you
haven't got-and that's propin-
Quity!

3-If there are evidences in
your lawn of heaving. due to
the action of frost, such as
bumpy spots here and there,
plan to roll the lawn just as

Rolling when the ground is
actually wet will pack the soil

What Men Miss

Most of our girls here" says
Sgt. Coleman, go around look
ing as though they were on their
way to a screen test" Well,
what of it? Aren't the men al
ways telling us that it is a
woman's first duty, to make her.
self as beautiful as possible for
the delight of men? And as
Juliet Wilbour Tompkins said,
long ago, Rouge is Gods gift to
woman!"
AS a matter of fact, il is the
American girls vivaciousness
and companionship which the
American man misses and longs
for. just as he longs for apple
pie, doughnuts and ice cream

More Attractive

English girls are beautiful,
and Australian girls are, too;
but l agree with well-known
moving-picture director, Fritz
Lang, who has been quoted as
declaring that American girls
are not only more beautiful than
those anywhere else in the
world, but otherwise more at
tractive."
They are more attractive, he
says, because they've grown up
in a democracy where they are
allowed and encouraged to ex-
press themselves freely. To be
themselves! This gives them an
advantage in personality and in
dividuality over the more re-
pressed women of most Euro
pean countries, where, woman
still thinks of herself as rib"

Dream Girl

And while a cynic has said
that absence makes the heart
grow fonder-but propinquity
gets the man!-there's great
deal more to the good old aphor-
ism that "the greener pastures
are always on the other side of
the fence" Meaning. in this in
stance, on this side of the ocean.
The homesick boy over there
gets a better perspective on the
girl he left behind. In his men,
ory all her charms and attrac-
tions are magnified.

LAWMAKERS CALL ON OPA
TO SET QUALITY CEILINGS

WASHINGTON, June 6 (UP)-
Rep Fred l.. Crawford, (R)r, Mich,
called on OPA today to eliminate
hidden price increases which he said
were "a fraud on the American
people,
The way to do that he said, is
to base price ceilings on quality
rather than base period prices. Price
ceilings generally are based on
maximum prices charged in March
1912.
Crawford made his views known
at a house banking committee hear
ing as Republican and Democratic
congressman prepared for battle
over limited price increases. Repub-
licans contend that price ceilings
have forced many firms out of busi-
ness.
Crawford said the quality Of many
household items has 'deteriorated to
