or boned. But here again, it's UP
to the woman to have any little
adjustment that's needed. And if
a dress has a sheer top or wide
open neckline, it needs exactly
the right thing underneath. Any
body can ruin any dress that a
designer makes simply by being
indifferent.
Naturally, looking right in your
clothes and feeling comfortable in
them is vital. But clothes are
more fun, too. if you use a little
imagination. The kangaroo
dresses in my new collection
those with the skirts hooked up
in pocket-like drapery-are the
result of bit of experimenting on
my own part. and nothing really
more complicated. I was trying
on one of my full-skirted party
dresses one night, wondering what
I could do to make it look diff
ferent. I tried holding the skirt
up to one side in front, and to
the other in back. A couple of
hooks and eyes and the Idea" was
added to others l had for the
coming season.
Another idea for my Fall COL
lection-and this one was for a
fabric-came to me when I was
wearing an old scarf in gauzy
striped wool. I had the pattern
duplicated in burgundy and white
wool jersey for the blouse that
goes with one of my suits. Then,
because everybody approved of the
blouse but suggested it could be
half of dress, designed a skirt
of plain burgundy wool
knit to go along.
Occasionally, every designer
suffers the shock of seeing some
thing she has designed spoiled by
some addition or another. In my
case, it was havirg one of my
dresses, loaned for a fashion show.

ChiId's
Defense
By Anoelo Potri

Marie, aged four. looked at the
tulips blooming so gayly in the
borders of the neighbours garden
and went over to get closer look
at them. Her mother missed her
from the yard and discovered her
with her hands full of tulips. The
bed looked as if a horse had run
through it, bruising and breaking
the flowers so lovely and gay a
few moments before.
"Marie-did you do this? Did
you pick Mrs. Utterly's beautiful
tulips?"
Hearing the horror in her
mothers voice and becoming
aware for the first time that she
had done what she should not
have done, Marie shook her head
and said, "No. Not me-"
What? Now don't add to your
badness by telling a lie. OF course
you did it and you'll have to be
punished for both wrong things,
pulling the tulips and telling lie
about it,"
Marie did not understand about
not pulling flowers. She saw how
lovely they were and, humanity
wanted to possess their beauty
The moralities of the matter were
quite absent from her conscious
ness. Telling a lie about it was
her way of defending herself
against a threat of punishment
for doing what she did quite
naturally.
Her mother could have cor
rected her mistake about the
flowers easily enough. but she
added to the child's fright and
confusion by putting her in such
a position as to make a lie the
natural outcome of her question
She knew that the child had done
this. Why ask? Why not prevent
any lying by saying, You picked
Mrs. Utterly's lovely flowers and
spoiled her garden bed. 1t is too
bad. Come. Let's go home and
see what we can do about this.
You have made a bad mistake
and so we must see what we can
do to make it good"
So often we put children in
such positions. We should not
ask if child did what we know
he did, but make the statement
of his act briefly, clearly, def
nitely. Then he has to accept the
responsibility for his act; lying.
as a way out, is closed to him.
We can make truth-telling
easier by stating the case at the
start when we are sure of the
facts. If we are not sure we
should wait until we are or have
very positive evidence which We
can state with conviction. If
there is any doubt of the matter
we listen to what the child has
to say, question him, and wait.
If he is telling a lie time will
prove it, meantime we try to
help the little child to tell the
truth by heading off his tendency
to deny the plain facts.

Every designer is bound to be
asked where she gets her ideas
and. usually, she's happy enough
to talk about the matter. But
what really concerns her, every
new season-and more so all the
time-is what her public will do
for those ideas.
A designer can't be responsible
for the way woman wears her
clothes. and mass production,
wonderful as it is. can't take care
of fit. Even the fashion model.
who seems to be perfectly fitted
in a ready-to-wear dress, is likely
to be pinned-in at one spot or
another where it doesn't show
for the picture"
Once a woman has discovered
her right size, and has her clothes
properly fitted here and there as
her own figure requires. she'll see
the wisdom of a remark a lot of
us designers are fond of repeating.
That is, Remember, it's all in the
way YOU wear it"
Many women haven't yet found
their own waistlines, and sales
people and alteration experts
aren't always expert on this score.
It's been with this thought in
mind, partly, that I've continued
to design the straight cut pleated
dress with piping ties, SO that a
woman can fit" her own waist
Other dresses in my collection
have the pretty back-dipping
waistline that is very becoming to
the woman who can wear it, or
help.
Easy sleeves, the kind cut in
one with the bodice. are another
blessing in so far as ready-to-Wear
clothes are concerned. Seams at
the natural shoulder line often
mean adjustment through the
whole bodice as well as at the
shoulders. AS for strapless dresses.

Why Grow
Old?
BY Josephine Lowmon

There is great confusion in the
mind of the average woman as
to which exercises reduce and
which develop. This is especially
true IN the case of the bustline.
I say, You can increase your
oust measurement through faith
tul exercise" Then I say, you
cannot increase the size of the
bust itself" This sounds contra
dictory to most women. I realize
1t does sound that way, but both
statements are true.
The bust itself has no muscles
put the strong pectoral muscles
lie underneath the bust. When
you develop and enlarge these
chest muscles it is like putting
padding underneath the bust
rather than using "falsies" to pad
it on top.
The result is the same in that
1t increases the bust measure
ments. This can be done. It has
happened over and over again in
my classes and I have hundreds
OF letters from readers which
testify to it.
also say, Good posture can
increase your bust measure
ments." This is true, too. al
though good posture cannot
increase the size of the bust itself
Fine carriage increases the bust
measurement in this way; when
you lift your chest your bust
lifts too, and the peak of your
bust is where it should be. II
you slump your bust sinks and
rests on your ribs.
AS a general rule contractions
OF the muscles, if done often
enough, increase; the stretch re-
duces. That is why I so often
tell you, when describing an ex-
erclse. Relax on this part and
reach as far as you can for the
stretch" This is the result OF
years of actual experience and
experimentation with women and
exercise.
Really miraculous results car
be obtained from exercises if YOU
do them correctly but the way
you do them is important. So
when Why Grow Old? describes
an exercise, be careful to do il
just as it is described. Sometimes
a bent knee. which you are tolo
to keep straight, makes all the
difference in the world in the
results you obtain.
I wish I could teach you all
personally but that is apparently
impossible since I received a hall
million letters from readers last
year, and many people reao
why Grow Old?" who do not
write to me.
I want you to get results, ano
you can, if you will follow direc-
tions carefully.
If you are one of those women
whose figure would be much
prettier with an inch or so added
to the bust measurement send
stamped, elf-addressed enve-
lope with your request for the
bust developing exercises leaf1et
