A serene brow is mark OF
beauty among the charms of a
gallant lady. Since it can only
be attained through poise and self
control, no wonder it has such
powerful attraction!
Real care and tremendous re-
sponsibility seldom mar the brow
Instead, the furrows are made by
little irritations and puzzlements

the eyebrows are allowed to dis
play annoyance, petulance. impa-

II you want to impress the sales
man as well as your husband, you
might bone up on a few profess
sional points yourself as to how
to judge the quality of suit
Here is check list used in these
same statesmen classes:
l. Lining. A firm twill weave
rayon wears better than a soft
silk or sleazy rayon. Preshrink-
ing and color -fastness of the lin.
ing also should be considered.
2. Pockets. If the suit is tor
quality, the coat pockets will be
lined in silesia, soft. lightweight
closely woven cotton twill with a
lleathery feel. Trouser pockets
should be lined in slightly
heavier cotton twill, and all pock-
cts should be constructed over a
reinforcement known as a stay"
"a strip of linen or cotton placed
beneath the pocket to prevent
tearing.
3. Buttons. Best quality are tin

dark veining and soft natural
polish.

S. Workmanship. Check the

Iored finishing on lapels and ex-
anime the shaping of the suit. See
that lining is smoothly fitted and
that buttonheles are hand-worked
with silk twist thread.
6. Hymo. Ask the salesman
about the suits hymo and you'll
really raise your rating. The
hymo means the hidden qualities
in a suit-the materials used in
the inner construction. If you
grasp the front closing of the coat
at should feel light and soft, not
stiff. and should spring back into
shape without wrinkle when you
let go. This indicates that top

FAITH AND RESPONSIBILITY
FOR AMERICANS

We have to bear in mind every
day now that the America we know
and love can be lost on the field of
battle or by neglect of our respOn-
sibilities on the home front. 1t is
not only that our lives may be at
stake; it is that the very principl-
es of liberty for which many many
have died are already at stake.
Those are the circumstances ta-
ken into account by an elder states
man of American business in a
speaking about faith and respOn-
sibilities for American" He is Col
by Mr.. Chester.
His recent, significant address
was before the EastOn, PennsylVan-
ia, area Chamber of Commerce in
behalf of the Citizens Committee for
the Hoover Report, of which he is 4
finance director.
After reaffirming his faith in this
cOuntry's great traditions, Mr..
Chester said: american business
has written its own book on How
to Do Business and Win Friends.

workable and more fair social phi

He admitted that in this time of
our cOuntry's greatest need that
odds sometimes seem against us,
but. he added, Il refuse to be dis
cOuraged. We have won wars a

best idea.
The basic ideas we have now
are still the best ideas. Wen fight
for them, if that is made necessary
We have the strength to back them
up, if we will go ahead with muster
ing that strength"
Though he addressed himself To
the businessman, from manufact-
urer to cObbler and farmer. he said
the six responsibilities he listed
would "fit any other grown person

Lancaster is a two-way live

West and the South. These are
bought by local farmers for fatten-

also a market for fat cattle bought
by local butchers and the larger
city packers who convert the fat
tened steers into steaks and roasts
for the metropolitan markets in
Harrisburg, Allentown, Scranton,

phia. The market also handles
smaller animals like sheep, veal
