America has gone swimming
pool happy. The latest survey
indicate there will be 1000
pools in the United States by
the end of 1856. In 1916 there
were about 5000.
American women have also
gone swimsuit happy. Where

women buy wardrobe of
sWimsuits to see them through
the swimming season.
Whether it's a private pool,

best-looking swimsuits will be
going by.
Variety-wise, this summer
of 1855 is the best ever.
Everything from sheaths,

with an eye to giving you a

suits give a sure fit whether
you're long or short, slim and
not-so- slim.
Not Only Decorative
The swimmers suit is meant
to be more than just decora-

These Tips Can Help You
Choose Home Wisely

Here are some questions il
might be wise to ask when look
ing at house in suburban Vir-
ginia-eSpecially Fairfax County
where conditions vary in differ
ent sections:
ZONING-In what zone is the
house located? What is sur
rounding property zoned? OF
course, vacant land always is
subject to rezoning-but at least
you get a chance to voice an opin-
ion about change of coming in
your neighborhood. But if near
by land already is zoned for
something you don't want when
you buy. there isn't much you
can do about it.
SEWERS-Is the house con-
nected to a public sewer system?
All of Alexandria and Arlington
have public sewers with isolated
EXCEPTIONS. but much of Fairfax
County doesn't. Is there charge
for sewer service? 1t isn't neces-
sarily Objectionable to pay a
sewer fee but some new residents
are startled to find out about it
after buying a house.

'partment can answer this ques-
ton. How deep is the we'll? Have
wells in the area been drying up
because of diminishing under
ground supply?
ROADS. Is the house on a
public road? This goes without
saying IN Arlington and Alexan-
dria, which maintain their own
road SyStemS-but it is an i'm
portant question to ask in Fair
fax County, where the State
Highway Department is in charge
OF tie road system.
I In Fairfax, roads IN new sub
divisions automatically become
part of the State system if they
are built according to State
specifications. But some sub
divisions in the county were
built before there were any
BODYBUILDING requirements, and
some of these roads never have
been accepted into the State
system. Home-OwnerS on such
roads are apt to find themselves
filling potholes with "hot-patch"
because the State won't do it,.
SCHOOL BUSES-Is there a
school bus route near the house
Or is there likely to be one
as soon as the new subdivision
is completed? Is there a school
within walking distance?
TRANSFORMATION yours
is one-car family, it might be
wise to ask about public trans
portation. Is there a bus stop
nearby? How often do buses
run?
DRAINAGE-How about storm
drainage? Is the house built in
a location that is likely to flood
every time it drizzles? The
county subdivision control Office
usually can answer this one.
Other questions will occur to
individual teS-but answers
to the queries listed here could
save you lot of disappointment
when you are preparing to sign
on that dotted line.

Anita Colby. who has a world
wide reputation for beauty.
brains, and charm was in town
yesterday. She concentrated
several fashion shows for
Lansburgh'S.
Catching her in between the
above, we came across some
vital information. (D She's
writing a book all about the
single woman. ITS a problem
all over the world" says she.
90 Government girls are in a
great spot for broadening their
cultural scope, meeting a great
cross-section of people. and
devoting their spare time to
outside activities that bring
them into contact with differ
ent people. Her suggestion is
that they keep growing not
only older, but in interests.
90 Hobbies are great. That's
how I got into the Churchill
circle. I met him on a boat.
I didn't talk politics with him.
We talked about our mutual
hobby-painting." They're still
good friends. a. Anita Colby
tells all unmarried girls to
take vacations on off seasons.
More men around that way
and fewer girls on the beach.
80 She's real busy these days
having just assumed the pres
idency of the Women's News
Service which will be distrib-
uted to newspapers through
out the country. It'll be a
smorgasbord of Colby on any
subject I think women will

phrase. simplicity is the most
expensive taste you can have
and it doesn't take any money
to have"

tional Education Association.
Meetings will start Monday
night.
A proposal to increase the
federation's per capita dues
from rs to so cents annually
will be presented by the Com
mittee on ReviSions to the By
laws. Dues we're last raised in
1949 and since then every
thing the federation does with
money has gone up in price
substantially" Mrs. Chapman
pointed out.
u. N. Prayer Proposal
Resolutions to be presented
include one indorsing the pro-
posal that the General Assem-
bly, OF the United Nations be
opened with prayer. Another
resolution would approve and
support bipartisan efforts to
strengthen and improve the
Corrupt Practices Act.
A concerted effort to combat
the critical shortage of scien-
lists and qualified science
teachers in the United States
is urged in still another pro-
posed resolution.
Mrs. Chapman pointed out
that the biennial election-year
conventions usually are held
in the central part of the
United States so there can be
as large an attendance as pos
sible from all parts of the
country. Detroit already has
been selected as the 1858 con-
vention city.
The federation is expected
to meet next year in Asheville,
NC. and Las Vegas already
has put in a bid for the 1859
convention.
