REALTY REVUE

A spokesman for the Veterans
of Foreign Wars recently testi-
fled before the House Veterans
Affairs Committee that an in
crease of one-half of l per cent
in the interest rate on CT loans
is unlikely to produce ANY sub
stantial increase in the flow of
lprivate funds" into these loans.
Omar b. Ketchum, director Of
the VFW's National Legislative
Service. added:
I'VE suggest as an incentive
to encouraging the flow of priv
ate funds in CT loans the use of
a tax-exemption device which
has been successful in the sale

Silhouette wise women will welcome this streamlined recipe for
Jelied Grapefruit Salad. Perfect for bridge luncheon parties, this
shimmering salad beauty scores high in tangy goodness, yet low,
low in calores!
Now boasting of just 38 calories per serving, this trim, slim salad
originally would have added up to over 100 calories for each serv-
ing. But simply by emitting all the sugar from the recipe, we were
able to slash away nearly two-thirds of the total calories. Sweeten-
ing was achieved, instead, by the use of the non-caloric sweetener,
Sucaryl. Without adding a single calorie, this sweetener gives
cooked and baked foods a natural sugar-lke sweetness. In fact,
neither you nor your guests will be able to taste the difference.
Jelied Grapefruit Salad
IL tablespoons gelatin Az teaspoons Sucaryl 2
IN cups unsweetened solution or 36 tablets

Makes 6 servings. Each serving contains 38 CALORIES; 26

Danish EXCHANGE
Student Killed In
Auto Accident

Jorgen Vestergarrd, a 19-year.
old Danish Agricultural Exchange
Student, who was killed in a cal
accident near Elko, Nevada, las
Saturday, is known by many ir
this community, where he lived
from March to October of 1856 al
the Martin Laursen home north
of Sidney. The Laursens came
from Denmark two years ago and
when Vestergarrd came to this
country he came direct to their
place, where he was employed
during his time here.
He left here in October to see
something of the country, as is
expected of exchange students,
and his last job had been with the
Adahr milk farm in Camarilla,
California. He was returning to
Sidney, where he planned to
spend another six months, when
he met his sudden death.
During his residence here he
became active in the Pella Luth-
eran church and was very popular
among the young people.
Mr.. Laursen left Wednesday for
Elko, to help in any way possible
with final arrangements, which
are in the hands of the American
Scandinavian Foundation of New
York City, which is responsible for
all exchange students.
Vestergarrd's body was discov-
cred Saturday night by three Mon
tana men, who stopped in this re-
mote section of Nevada on High
way SO to investigate the source
of smoke some distance from the
highway, where they found the
remains of the burned car with
the body inside. The only identifi-
was the Richland county
license. He had purchased the
car in Sidney.
Vestergarrd had left Elko Fri
lay, where he had done some
work on his car and had COM
planned that the gas fumes from
is exhaust were making him sick. |
Officials said it was possible he
vas overcome with carbon mon
,xide fumes. His car had left the
highway and ploughed about a
lalf mile across the sagebrush-
covered desert before stopping.

Every woman is born with a
certain amount of charm and
beauty, but it is a clever and
determined woman who makes
the most of her potentialities. So
let's take a look at ourselves.
Do you buy clothes because you
see something you like? Because
it is a bargain? Are you getting
the most from your clothes dol
lar? Looking your best demands
an overall plan. Decide what you
need, where you go and what
you can afford. To have an over
all plan you must organize your
clothes. At least twice a year
write down every stitch of cloth
ing you own. Decide which need
repair, which can be altered, and
which should be discarded. List
the places you have been, totaling
where you spend the most hours.
Write down what you would wear
if money and time were no prob
lem. List what you can afford to
buy from this general list. 1t is
we'll to remind yourself that the
less you have to spend, the more
important it is to spend wisely.
In building your wardrobe, Sir
Francis Bacon said, "Whosoever
hath a good presence and a good
fashion, carries continual letters
of recommendation" So study
practices of the we'll dressed Wo-
man. Read magazine articles and
books, and seek the advice of
store clerks. Improve your shop
ping technique. Look your best
to go shopping. Be courteous and
make friends of the salespeople.

to try their suggestions.

your wardrobe, and avoid bar

/ different occasions?" The qualifi-
cations for a basic dress are:
color - black, brown, navy, gray
or beige. Fabric - year around
heavy silk crepe or sheer wool.
Line - simple. Style - plain or
removable trim, good plain neck
line independent of trim, fullness
of bodice, bracelet or full-length
sleeves, and a narrow self mater
ial belt. A basic suit is ideal for
women with small hips and good
legs. 1t is not good for a woman
whose hips are four inches larger
than her bust or vice versa. The
suit can be manufactured, properly
proportional to your shoulders
and general height, or it may
have a rounded neck and shoul-
der line. 1t should be simple
enough for a sweater, blouse, or
elaborate gilet. You should have
two sets of accessories for the
dress and two for the suit. Your
flair for color can be used in
accessories. Selecting and comb
ing accessories is the most diff
ficult part of assembling a cos
tune. Accessories can make or

Piles of accessories for dressing
down a costume are: Hat-felt or

doeskin or string; purse - suede,
broadcloth, leather or reptile;
jewelry - Mexican, silver, brass,
gold, copper, pearls or a lapel
pin; shoes = calf, reptile, patent,
novelty leather or fabric. Some
accessories suitable for dressing
up a costume are: Hat - feath-
ers flowers, veil, or no hat;
gloves - silk, suede, 3/4 length,
black, white or colored; purse -
suede, crepe, faille, satin, carded
or broadcloth; jewelry - gold,
silver, rhinestone, colored stones,
lapel pins, pearls, or flowers;
shoes suede, calf, patent or
.gabardine.
Proportions are important. If
you are not well proportioned,
lines can be used to create an il
fusion. The largest part of the
bust should equal the largest part
of the hips, and the waist should
be ten inches smaller. The body

vertically - the top of the head
to the bustline, bustline to hips,
hips to knees and knees to floor.
Here are some pointers to help
you attain good proportion.

flage poor lines. For instance,
