Point, finishing 6lSt in class of
.164.
During world War I, the young
officer became interested in the
clumsy, sometimes unreliable
monster called tanks, with which
the British had surprised the Ger
mans on the Western front.
He spent most of the war in
this specialized work and did not
Iget into combat overseas until
the second global conflict.
BY this time, he had seen sery-
ice throughout the United States
and in the Canal Zone. He also
found time to be graduated from
the War College in Washington.
Assistant to Macarthur.
/ From 1885 to 1910, the up-com-
ing young officer was assigned as
assistant to Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur while the latter was mill
tary adviser to the Philippine
government.
| Upon leaving the Far East, Gen.
Ike was stationed on the West
Coast and in Texas until the big
Red and Blue Army maneuyers
in Louisiana in 1941.
The future general demonstrate
ed his ability as a tactician in the
war games. The talen was out
standing enough to win the atten-
ton OF the top brass in Washing
ton.
Nevertheless Ike's permanent
rank was only that of lieutenant
colonel in the Regular Army when
the japanese attack on Pearl
Harbor plunged the Nation into
World War II. His Temporary
rank was brigadier general.
The general performed under
fire in Africa. Sicily and Italy

Welded Tight Unit.
The tall, spare-haired farm
product of Kansas had contriyed
by some home-spun spell of his
own, to weld the balky Allies into
unit that stuck together through
one tough campaign after an.

One among thousands was the
tribute paid Gen. Ike on his tri.
umphant return to Washington
in June. 1945.
In the front row on Constitution
avenue was a 5-year-old girl
dressed in white from the big bow

small shoes. She was waving q
service flag with a gold star ir
the center.

child explained:
The flag is for my daddy

The girl held the flag at atten.

NEW YORK, (GLOBAL)
BY LOU SWARZ

NEW YORK, (GLOBAL) =
Beauty is the outward expression
Of the inner soul" Your facial ex-
preston, your posture (sitting as
we'll as standing) and your speech,
reflect the real YOU, so take stock
and be sure you measure up to the
ideal.
How about your facial expression
and all Of those things that effect
it? Are you cheerful? Do you
smile? Are you contented or wor-
ried? Are you afraid of something
in life, or do you feel free? Are
your thoughts cluttered, scattered,
or organized? Do you look a per-
son straight in the eye when talk
ing to him, or do you waver? Do
you keep your chin up at all times,
or do you walk with a downcast
look
AS to posture: Be sure you sit
comfortably with feet flat on the
floor, one foot slightly in front Of
the other. If you must cross your
legs, do so at the knees. Of you
are a "stylish stout" You shouldn't
cross your legs at all) When
standing. keep your SPINE STRAIGHT,
and your head up as if reaching for
a goal. A careless position is not
good for your health. Walking is
most important and calls for think
ing so that you will walk gracefully,
slightly moving the hips with each
step and at the same time keeping
the back straight, and the head up.
The subject of speech is touchy
one. Consider your choice of words
as we'll as your articulation, enun-
citation, and correct grammar. You
may need special training and
coaching in your speech, but you
don't need any in the choice OF
words. You know the good, the
bad, and the slang. SO watch your
speech. 1t tells a great deal about
you.

TO SMILE ABOUT
By Ruth Nelson Sawyer

NEW YORK, (GLOBAL) - The
most beautiful face in the world
can be spoiled by a smile that re-
fleets dull, off-color, or poorly
cared-for teeth. Have you ever
noticed how much more confidently
you smile after you have just had
your teeth cleaned by your dentist?
You know, then, that your teeth
can stand being on display.
In these times, no girl should
have a complex because her teeth
aren't attractice, because modern
dentistry can work miracles. Going
to the dentist is as much beauty
treatment as going to the beauty
salon for a hair-do. A girl who is
conscious of her appearance should
visit her dentist at regular inter-
walls. 1t is important to learn how
to brush your teeth properly. Your
dentist will be glad to show you
how it should be done. Bad teeth
are the cause of unpleasant breath,
and it can usually be corrected by
proper dental care and the use of
mouth washes.
Then, of course, there's the mat
ter of proper diet. Orange juice,
celery and milk are some of the
foods that are particularly good for
the teeth. Orange juice contains
vitamin c and milk is rich in min
erals, both Of which are essential to
healthy teeth.
The color of your lipstick can
flatter or detract from the ap-
pearance of your teeth. If your
teeth are not perfect, use shade
Of lipstick that makes them less
conspicuous. If your teeth are good
looking, highlight them with a
bright shade of lipstick.
Remember, your teeth are one
of your biggest assets, but you
must give them their regular and
proper beauty care.
Of you have any questions, send
them to me at Global News Syndi-
cate, Hotel Theresa, 7th Ave, at
125th STREET, New York City,.

ropicaI Tinge
In Fashion Is
Exciting And

BY June L'Rhue

New York, (GlobaD = Women's
clothes today are more exciting
and enhancing than ever before
The wider the skirt, the nuder the
shoulders, the "wasper" the waist,
the wider the hips. the barer the
feet, the gaver the colors-the
more beautiful the effect. Of
course, there is an aDpreciablv
large number Of women who cline
to the notion that a stole around
those shoulders. especially for dav-
time, is just a bit pretter. An OBJ
server, IN the park on upper Broad
way, was heard to say recently,
i like a suggestion of baroness
better, for 1t seems more provo
catlVe. Then, there are others who
say. "Oh, it's a matter of taste"
Perhaps the beach and formals
are better adapted to the tastes
OF extremists. Anyway. it is gen
orally admitted that wherever one
turns, one finds fascinating riot of
color, unusually deviating, vet
simple lines, all Of which combine to
give miladv that Enthusiastically ex-
citing tropical look.
When madam steps out these
midsummer days, she provokes
more craning, more second looks,
more compliments, than she did,
| say even last year. If she posses
ses Venus de Milo figure. the
smile of Mona Lisa, or the beauty
OF Helen of Troy, all we'll and good.
But the lack of these natural en-
doWments poses for her no problem
OF any moment. For she knows full
well that her key to beauty is the
taste with which she assemblies
her outfits. SO she not only markets
for frock, but for other values,
such as line, color and design.
The current tropical influence
in styles for women is by no means
the result of chance. 1t came about
because of woman's relentless and
unremitting search for the most
beautiful creations in clothes. When
she was not actively engaged in
conducting the search herself, she
guided it by logged insistence upon
those slaves of hers - the buyers,
stylists and designers. Obediently,
after probing the pages of fashion
history, they canvassed the islands
of the seven seas. Nor did they
cease until they had found the pref
ties of pretties, that were worn
more naively by our sisters of the
island regions. And so. the bout
FAINT, the bustles and frills of yes
teryear were augmented by the
more simple, more colorful and be-
coming lines from the tropics. And
the result is simply devastating.
Their environment may offer
glaring contrast, but American and
tropical women now look almost,
if not altogether, the same. OBJ
serving the downtown area, or even
out your window or your neighbor-
hood grocery, you see the tropical
trend running the gamut from play
clothes to dress wear. Neither is
there any restriction as to age.
Baby girl is charming in her little
ruffled vari-colored surback, and
so is her ringlet-coiffed, bouffant
and ruffled skirted grandmother in
rainbow-hued wedges.
