Glamor Role
BY BETTY CLARKE
An Newsfeatures Beauty Editor)


Susie's hair is standing on end
lust like thousands of her sisters
because the upsweep hair-do has
swept the nation and thert is
nothing anybody can do about it.
But don't be fooled, Susie knows
that sleek upswept hair doesn't
usually appeal to Johnny, Joe and
Dick who are long-hair fiends
from way back before grandpa's
day.
There is more to the trend than
meets the eye and maybe the
modern miss is going to let her
hair down-but way down, be-
cause it's surprising how much
hair can be plaste1ed away in an
upsWeep.
Meantime, hairdressers are
fighting a losing battle to get the
gals to cut their hair. Recently
articles by hairdressers appeared
advising the girls that upswept
hair would eventually lead to
badness, but hair specialists say
this is untrue.
| Any girl can shampoo her hail
with conditioning liquid sham
poo and keep it neat, pretty anc
attractive with a variety of these
upsweeps that are easy to do al
| home.

Nom Can Wax
Happy With
Waterproofe1
BY VIVIAN BROWN

ZAP Newsfeatures Writer)
Something new has been added
to mons list of postwar laundry
aids.
This time its a wax emulsion
that will waterproof juniors rain
coat, dads sport jacket, MONS
dress and household fabrics.
A small amount of the liquid
is added to the final rinse water
of the family wash to waterproof
the fabric.
1T can be used on summer
clothing because the wax does
not fill in spaces so that clothes
may still retain their porous
qualities.
Fabrics that have been water
PROCEED with the wax are not
likely to become stiff and are
more likely to become softer to
the touch.
A non-toxic and non-inflam-
mable fluid, it is recommended
for fabrics that must be stored
away in closets or cellar trunks
where they might otherwise be
harmed by dampness and mildew.
The fabric emulsion can be
used with as much as so parts of
water in the rinse to provide eff
ficient water repellent. If a
housewife desires to starch her
fabrics she may do so in conjunc-
ton with the emulsion. Though
it is best to dip the article into
the liquid while still wet from
the last water, the dry fabric may
be run through if necessary.
Either process requires only few
| seconds.
Tests conducted by the manu-
facturers have shown that the
Wax-treated fabric not only be-
comes water resistant but at the
same time does not spot easily
and is apt to retain its press
longer and be less likely to
wrinkle than untreated garments.
Such articles as dresses, Stacks,
play suits, cloth hats, shorts and
even fabric shoes can be made
water and mildew repellent.
