Family Group Observes Christmas
A group of men and women
relatives of the Druyor family,
who are organized as a birthday
club with the name of G. D. Whims
club, the initials of family names
being used to form the club name,
held an elaborate Christmas party,
the second annual affair, in the
Wesley Druyor home Sunday af-
ternoon and evening. These par
ties are financed from a fund rails
ed during the year.
A full-course dinner, prepared
,, by Elmer Druyor as chef and the
women as the pie-bakers, was SER
we'd at noon at a table made beau
tiful with holly branches and
Christmas decorations of Santa,
his sleigh, reindeers and boots
centering the length of the table.
Coming together in the Druyor
home were, Mr.. and Mrs. Harry
Ireland, Shirley, Janice, Wayne,
Sharon and Vance, Mr.. and Mrs.
Vance Wright and Dennis, George
Carr, Jr., Mr.. and Mrs. Jack Will
kins and Cheri, Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam Sullivan, Pat, Kit, Kay, Pam
and Billy, Mr.. and Mrs. Myron Be-
bow, Judy, Cindy, Dottie, Kenny
and Myron, Mr.. and Mrs. Dick
Petersen and Glenny Druyor, Mr..
and Mrs. Larry Brown and Con-
ME, Miss Jessie Druyor, and the
children of the host and hostess,
Bette Joy and Connie Lee Druyor.
And of Fremont there were: Mrs.
H. L. Meyers and Karen, Mr.. and
Mrs. Elmer Druyor, Bonnie and
Marvin.
The day was also the birthday
of Mrs. Elmer Druyor and the
second birthday of Dennis Wright.
There was a birthday cake and
gifts for each of them.
There was Christmas tree and
a Santa Claus, and a gift ex-
change among the grownups and
also among the children. The chill
dren sang carols. Janice Ireland
won the Christmas tree as door
prize. The women entered into
contests, the winners receiving
prizes, while the men played
cards.

And one of the mysterious secrets
of this inner, hidden, invisible life
of yours is that you are not the
only person to change. Gloria
changes, mama changes, light
breaks in everywhere. And present
ly Jim comes home and asks you
how you'd like Santa Barbara?
They're putting him in charge of
that branch next fall. Yes, house
goes with the job.
One Problem at Time.
It's only when you get one set
of problems completely solved that
you move up. People don't gradu-
ate from unpaid bills, ill-kept
houses, discomfort, inefficiency. Who
can say that it wasn't Jim's
attitude at the office, his new con-
fidence and cheerfulness, due to
your invisible alchemy, that sug-
gested to the manager that Brown
would be good man to send West?
If your problem really seems in
soluble, whether you're a girl in
high school or fine, lonely old lady

change by all means, plan anything.
But plan with the safety and good
of every member of the household
taking precedence of your own. The
children have right to peace, Sc
curity, love. Lydia, whatever her
faults, is Bob's wife, and must be
considered, things must be made
easy for her. Mama, no matter how
old and tiresome, is a pathetic note
in the picture, and for whatever
time she has left needs tenderness
and comfort. Quarreling and COM
planning hurt everyone within hear
ing. Selfishness is as common as
cancer, and twice as malignant.
Escape from it all by becoming in
visible, and play the most fascinat-
ing game that every occult wis
dom recommended to men,.
For this invisibility is part of the
greatest law of all. The law that
promises that who so loses his life
shall gain it. ..s.

farmers Daughter Mode
A Feature of Showinus

Some of the dresses shown at New
York exhibits are 1.-The Farmers
Daughter" type, that.is, before Hol.
lywood got hold of ''The Farmers
Daughter wardrobe. These dresses
have gathered bertha collars, dust
ruffies to the skirts, skirts Of three

trimmings of white scallop edgings,
old fashioned cotton laces, braid,
and, of all things, edgings of tatting.
So the exotic Tina Lesser has come
down to earth and every woman will
love her new stuff. Incidentally, the
famous hand painted, one-of-a-kind
silk blouses designed by Lesser are
bereft Of sequins.
Eta's very smooth new spring and
summer originals are so quietly
subtle as to seem bit less dra.
matte than they really are. But,
long after the first sight of her
lovely feminine fashions, they will
be remembered with great appre.

Bell syndicats.-wNU Features.


IF YOU are dissatisfied with
your life, and planning up
L setting changes, here are
some considerations for you.
They are drawn from the expe-
riences, the mistakes of thou
sands of women who have writ
ten me of their problems, during
a quarter of a century.
No matter how hard the cir
cumstances of your present life
seem, they are probably easier
than the circumstances into
which you can change them.
That sounds like sweeping
statement, but it is really not
half emphatic enough. To
dream that by altering every
thing, trying a hazard of new
fortunes, you can do away with
the difficulties of the old life,
Is only dream and the awakening is
bitter.
For example: Let US suppose love
has completely departed from your
relationship with your husband.
You don't dislike him, you don't
wish him any harm, but it's just
that you and Fred seem to have
nothing more in common; it almost
seems that if you want thing or
like thing, that's enough to make
Fred not want it.
So why not divorce? Loads Of
people get them and seem to get
on very well. You and Fred are
civilized people; there won't be any
trouble about children. Part of
the time with you and mother, part
of the time with Fred - if he can
manage it.
Yes, but don't get it started. Don't
face the heart-rending business of
dividing. Dividing all the things that
mean home and memories to you
and Fred. Dividing the puzzled chill
dren. Dividing yourself; tearing
yourself in two.
Lose Your Life for A While.
Far better to lose your life for
while. Just sink yourself in their
lives; in service, in forestalling
their needs, in understanding, in
tenderness. Lose your life, to gain
it. The result will blind you in a
rush of happiness such as you never
knew before.
Or perhaps the domestic situa-
ton doesn't suggest divorce - but
change - any change. The apart
ment is simply impossible. Jim's
little girl by an earlier marriage is
impossible. The financial situation is
impossible. You are getting so tired,
SO jittery, so bewildered that there
simply isn't any use going on. If
you went to hotel room, got your
old job, put Carol in school; it
doesn't sound practical or economi-
cal either, but you just simply can't
60 on! You are so sick of every
thing and everybody, what with
prices so high and mama so COM
planning and nothing nice ever
seeming to happen to the Browns,
and you're not going to stand it.
Well, that's the time to lose your
Efe.i You remember that in the
fairy-tales the old witches finest
and most fascinating gift was invisi-
bility. Make, yourself invisible. Be-
come the silent friend, the sympa-
thizer, the servant of the house.
|, Watch the miracle spread. Being
Invisible, you need nothing. But how
much you can do, with a room put
In order for Grandma, a hem let
out for Gloria, an. unexpected holi-
day for. Hannah, tender word for
Jim. To have you cheerful, to have
you saying constructive, under
standing things about the trying
stepchild, to have you praising
things for change - that means
heaven for him.

Woman,s World
Trimmings Are Easy to Make
And WillAdd Color to Ensemble
& G,Aa Haley

FASHION trends are moving away
from the simpler things imposed
on us by the late wars restrictions,
and now we are seeing more and
more trimmings used on clothing.
II you are doing sewing at home,
you will have a fascinating time
with needlecraft, and at the same
time be able to pretty your things
with edgings' and trimmings Of all
kinds.
You can add a dash of color to
your dark dresses by adding con-
trasting bands of straps. Or, per-
haps you would rather stitch on
some pretty applique on pockets or
running diagonally across the bod
ice of a dress.
Perhaps there's a bit of ruffling
which you can add to the neckline of
a dress which will freshen it up now
that cooler weather begins to wane
and you think of in-between season
dresses.
There's one little tip which I'd
like you to keep in mind, however,
when you begin to work. Every
bit of trimming applied must be as
neat as possible. The trimming it.
self, since it will be one of the out
standing features of your garment,

you do work of this kind. They
should contrast perfectly, not only

Simple Decoration Often
Does the Trick

OueS tHe 1rlcK
Now that we have discussed some
of the more interesting decorative
features, let's suggest some of the
simpler ones.
Have you noticed how many
lovely buttons are on the market?
There are innumerable plastic ones
that might be just the answer for a
dress or housecoat. Or, some of the
heavy elabor ate metal ones might
prove just the thing for one of your
good dresses, coats or suits.
Laces are coming back, and are
wonderful for use on lingerie, dress
es, aprons, blouses and neckpieces.
These should be inserted or stitched
on carefully SO they will take wear
and not begin to come off. Baste
first, then stitch carefully by hand
or machine. Lace should never be
pulled or stretched.
Decorative feather-stitching, top
stitching, chain stitching, blanket
stitching, arrowhead stitching and
others in contrasting colors often
are enough to freshen skirt for the
teen-aged daughter. When carefully
applied they may make the garment
look several dollars more expensive
ohan it actually is. =.

trimming. The flower motif is excel
lent when used at pockets or neck
line, and occasionally around the
skirt.
Prepare the cut-out applique mo-
tits by cutting so there are no un-
even edges. Use small sharp scis-
sors or razor blade.
Turn the raw edges under, baste
and press them. There should be no
frayed edges. You have to be espe-
cially careful about this when you
use the applique on a washable gar
ment which will have to take lot
of Tubing.
Always pin, then baste the cut-out
on the garment. The stitching may
be done by hand or machine with
visible whipping stitches, running or
machine stitches, blanket stitches of
crochet thread or yarn or liquid
thread.
Quilting Makes
Interesting Trim
There are many uses for quilting
as trimming if you are inclined
toward this type of needlecraft.
Quilting is very popular currently
in robes and brunch coats, but it
also may be used as a trimming for
necklines, pockets, skirts or jenkins.
Chintz, satin, calico and taffeta
are used most frequently and may
be purchased ready-made if so de-
sired.
If you are doing your own quilt
ing, the best way to work this is by
using transfer pattern. The stitch
ing must be perfect, for this is ex-
acting type of work.
Ordinarily you quilt from the
right side, but on transfer patterns
the wrong side is used. Each stitch
is perfectly placed to insure smooth
ness.

FOR VANDENBERG

New Jerseys delegates to the
Republican convention, having
looked over the three leading
G. o. p. presidential contenders,
were reported ready to throw
their support to a fourth-Sena-
tor Arthur Vandenberg.
The parade of aspirants for the
nomination came to an end when
Gov. Thomas e. Dewey spoke to
the delegates at closed dinner
meeting in Trenton. In the past
month they also had heard Sen.
Robert A. Taft and former Gov.
Harold e. Stassen.
Party leaders maintained Off
cial silence on the courst the So
vote delegation will follow after
a first-ballot vote for Governor
Driscoll, but there appeared to be
little change in pronounced SEN
timent for Vandenberg.
Because he is not an active
candidate, Vandenberg declined
the New Jersey organizations in
vitation to speak in the state.

Citizenship Papers
Are Now Available

Naturalization application forms
flor anyone wishing to apply for
first citizenship papers are now
available at the Jackson Street
Community Council office, Ala
Fifth Ave. S., it was announced
today by Mrs. Ruth Manca, ex-
ecutive secretary. Arrangements
have been made with officials of
the United States immigration
and Naturalization Service to
provide this new Red Feother
Service of the Council.
while some groups of aliens,
including Japanese, are barred by
present law from becoming full
citizens any resident of the
United States may file his first
papers which is a declaration of
his intention to become citizen
If and when he becomes quail
fled" Mrs. Manca said. "There
is considerable advantage for
Japanese aliens in filing now
since the seven year period re-
CURED before final papers can
be issued begins on the date the
declaration of intention is filed.
With a bill to grant naturaliza-
ton privileges to all people now
before congress, there is good
reason to believe that changes in
the law will be made within the
next seven years."
The Community Council will
fill out blank for anyone who
calls at the office. No appoint
ment is necessary unless a
Chinese or Japanes interpreter is
required, in which case arrange
ments may be for other hours
when necessary. There is, of
course, no charge for this service.
Each person applying should
bring with him his alien registra-
tion book, since much of the in
formation required for the dec
laration is contained in this docu-
ment. Three photographs of the
applicant, 2 inches by inches
in size, must also be submitted.
T. A. Allasina, who was in
charge of negotiations with the
immigration Service, commented
that the council had decided to
provide this service based upon
requests received at Bailey-Gat-
zert school and at the Council
office.
"By having such service
close at hand, where it would not
be necessary to wait in line, and
where interpreters are readily
available, the council believes
that many people will apply for
naturalization who might not do
so otherwise" he added.
