terms.
Half slips are made as pretty as
the camisoles for many of them
come with at least one flounce at
the hem, and others with a lot Of
eyelet decorated with ribbon of
course, done up in nice full ruffle.
Dark half slips are popular under
billowy skirts and these frequently
have gay plaid flounce on them,
a good idea for lengthening some
too short half slips you may al
ready have.
Skirts are being tucked up in one
or two places just slightly to show
off the pretty flounce underneath,
and you'll find it a very pretty
touch for teen-agcd daughter.
Here Are Tips
For Basic Dresses
In case your basic dress has be-

dress it up with nice simple touches.
The first and easiest idea con-

simple dress.
Another very smart idea for the
older or younger woman is the use
of stole with dark dress. Choose

to wear underneath it. To be in
high fashion, make it fit beautifully,
have wide straps on it and a pretty
ribbon that you can run through the

For Samson

An old-fashioned dentist thinks
the Russians have Hitler's jaw. The
dentist, DR.. Plaschke, says he read
in a German dentistry magazine
that his former assistant, now in
Russian custody, had identified
jaw which the Russians we're toy
ing with as Hitler's.
DR.. Plaschke claims the assistant
couldn't positively identify it, but
he himself feels it must be Hitler's
because the magazine rdicules the
work as oldfashioned.
Plaschke says he did an old
fashioned job on Hitler when he
made bridge of II teeth in 1884.
Plaschke also claims to have
studied dentistry at the Univer-
Sity of Philadelphia in 1908. Their
methods have probably advanced
since then, but Hitler was old
fashioned about some things.
All we can do is hope the bridge
panied him. And remember that
that jawbone, if it's authentic, slew
more men than the one from
similar source that Samson used
when he went after the PhlllStines.

Woman S World
Give Summer Clothes Fresh
Touches With Simple Tricks
By Ertta Haley

VKIOMEN'S CLOTHES usually
w show infinite variety, and the
desire for this seems boundless.
However, most of us can afford
only one wardrobe, if that, for
season, and it's nice when we can
do something simple at home to
freshen up the dresses.
This year, particularly, women's
summer clothing is full of tricks
to make them more feminine, more
colorful and more summer-like. If
you need to perk up the wardrobe
a bit, any one of these sewing tricks
I'm going to tell you about will do
lots for your morale.
Gloves Can Be
Decorative
You've never seen gloves within
recent years that look like those
being shown now. Even gentle pas
tells are breaking out with a rash
of color. Sweet powder blue ones
are made more surprising and dar-
ing with flash of cherry red at
the wrists. This is easy to do at
home even to pair of white gloves
for they can be tinted, and the
color added from another piece of
fabric.
Or if you are wearing white gloves
with a summer print, a piece of
that print might be used to deco
rate the cuffs of your gloves. 1t
takes but few minutes to cut and
sew on.
One of the latest things in gloves
is to have ruffles around the wrists.

color. All the material needs is
finishing at both ends, for it can
be draped suitably around the Shout
ders.
If you would choose demurely
different touch for your basic dress
select a smart and practical cape
let collar of pique, sharkskin or
one of the lovely crisp whites.
These are entirely separate and can
be kept Immediately fresh very
easily. Select style with Cavalier
points or neckband, according to
the needs of your basic dress.
A dark bolero is very good to
use on print dress if you want to
make it more sophisticated. Black
is a good color to use with pink,
aqua or soft green prints. If you
like, select a wide black belt to put
on the dress to carry out the dark
motif in the bolero.
If you have made the print your
self, you may have enough ma
terial to make cuffs of the print on
the bolero. Wide cuffs are very
popular.
If you don't want either capelet
or bolero, make up a jacket in
brilliant color to give your basic
dress a real lift. Light blue, pink
or red goes well with navy; beige
or pink go nicely with brown, and
green looks well with black.
Freshen Hats
With Flowers
Open crowned hats are especially
easy to freshen if they have flowers
or ribbon because either of them
can be changed
If the hat is pastel shade and
you want to clean it, dip soft brush
or cloth in cleaning fluid and rub
over the hat gently. You then may
decorate with new ribbon or flow
ers to match, perhaps, another suit
or dress you are wearing.
These half hats will look especial
ly refreshing and pretty if the
flowers are enclosed in yelling. A
stunning hat which I saw recently
was navy blue taffeta decorated
with soft pink rosebuds enclosed in
very sheer navy blue yelling.
If you are the type for a pretty
picture hat, you may want to wrap
some yelling over the top that
comes down underneath the chin to
tie as bonnet. Most of the large
picture hats now are being shown
with some sort of fastening under
the chin.
Straw hats may have their flow
ers freshened; or you may want
to have several sets of flowers that
can be snapped on to change with
whatever dress or suit you are
wearing.

Red Cross Session
.Urqes Nations 70 Aid
Palestine Refugees
By the kssoc,oisd Press

STOCKHOLM, Aug. 28-The 18th
International Red Cross Conference
voted unanimously today to urge
all governments and Red Cross
societies to send aid to Palestine
refugees, irrespective OF their race,
creed or political status.
The resolution originally was pro-
posed by the Netherlands Red Cross
and approved by the conference S
Relief Committee.
! Count Folke Bernadotte, president
| Of the conference, acted in his
capacity of United Nations mediator
| for Palestine in appealing for aid.
The latest U. N. survey estimated
! there are 100000 Arab and 1000
| Jewish refugees as result of Arab
Jewish warfare.
/ Mrs Rose Kettaneh. delegate of
the Lebanese Red Cross, told the
conference: There has been q
steady stream of men, women and
children pried loose from their
farms and homes where they and
many generations before them had
been living"
Most Are without Money.
Most of them, she said, are with
out money. Others who had some
money now are running out of it,
she added. The problem has grown,
Mrs. Kettaneh said, until help now
is needed from the Red Cross.
An observer from the government
OF Israel said he supported the idea
of aiding all refugees. He declared
the 100000 Jews in Jerusalem are
also suffering from a lack of food
and water"
The conference adopted a reSo-
luton proposed by Greece that
Greek children deported outside
their national boundaries be re-
turned to their homes" The Greek
delegate said thousands of children
have been taken by Communist
led guerrillas across the northern
borders of Greece.
The conference also decided to
establish supreme co-ordinating
authority.
Reorganization Considered.
The authority will consist of the
presidents of the three international

Red Gross organizations, the stand

Red Cross Conference. the Inter-
national Committee of the Red
Cross, and the League of Red Cross
Societies.
The question of reorganization of
the International Red Cross was
considered in report from the
general commission.
The report contained a declara-
ton on peace. urging all Red Cross
members to work for international
understanding whence may spring
an enduring peace amongst all ma
tions Of the world"
The delegates passed a resolution
expressing the hope that the Soviet
Union and other nations not at
