O'DAY'S lew Fall Frnrlrc Viful, wearable judget priced g Dialers Deplore Teen-Agers Who Tie Up Telephone By ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer Some teen-agers spend their evenings glued to the family tele-. phone as though that instrument had been specifically invented for their use. The thoughtless girl's chit-chat that ties up the lines is a nuis ance to her family as well as to purposeful callers who squirm un der the never-ending busy signal. Telephone Manners The girl guilty of these faults needs to brush up on good tele phone manners: Chain-calls are a number one violation of the rules. Etiquette requiresthatothermem Etiquette requires that other members of the household be giv en a chance to make and break dates, speak to the doctor, lawyer or the grocer. Coy time-wasters over the tele phone should be saved for face-to-face encounters. Voice camouflag ing, cory "Guess who this is?" routines are not only time-wasters but can be a threat to friendship- It's practically impossible to be "cute" successfully over the phone. However, the "voice with the smile," intelligent, friendly and in terested will get a girl places. "Friendly" Treatment No girl should be miserly with this "friendly treatment." Her parents' friends and tradespeople will appreciate it, and she'll gain social poise and the ability to be at ease with all kinds of strangers. Finally! Since any girl hits the the roof if her telephone messages are garbled or rendered unintel ligible by the sister or brother who errs in that department, she should be considerate of other people's messages. Keeping pencil and memo paper handy by the tele phone is one guarantee that a message will be written down ac curately on the spot and that it has a better chance to be taken accurately and legibly, By EPSIE RINARD NEA Fashion Editor NEW YORK (NEA) Perma nent pleats are-science's gift this fall to the school girl.

Olive green and navy also look promising for autumn and early winter. All of which means that there is no one nail lacquer shade which may be worn with all the new fashion colors expressed by the fabric designer and couturier. Rather, they say, you will choose from the twelve new Chen Yu shades. With the hennas, rusts-, tawny yellows and orangy reds, you will iiKe such lacquer shades as: Sea Shell, Coral Fan or Brown Cor al, they suggest.

Frequent Use Helps Silver Preservation It's a wonderful paradox that nothing preserves sterling silver like constant use, says the August issue of Charm, the magazine for the business girl. In the same way as do fine woods and real pearls, sterling silver develops a patina, a lovely luster, in the wear and handling. Washing Important Wash silver as soon after meals as possible, because there are some foods notably eggs which leave marks on flatware. Salt makes tiny black pits in silver, so brush your sterling salt shakers extra carefully after each meal. Don't rub them, or random salt grains may become imbedded. Line your sterling bonbon dishes with doilies before you use them to serve salted nuts. Between meals, store silver in a woqden chest which is lined with nontarnish cloth. Or, line a draw- er in your dining room sideboard or kitchen cabinet with a half- yard of non-tarnish silver cloth Simply place half the cloth in the drawer, arrange silver on it, and fold the remaining half over the silver, Charm advises. Cloth Bags for Storing To store hollow ware, buy some specially constructed cloth bags like pouches, with strings at the top. Or, make them yourself, from non-tarnish cloth. Just stitch a square bag in the proper size, make a hem at the top, and pull a drawstring through the hem. As a final word of caution: Be sure to count your silverware be fore you put it away. For al though you can't possibly wear out silver, you can very easily deposit a knife or fork in your disposal unit with the dinner scrapings. no extra cost for upkeep. A prom ise of this good behavior for six months to skirts with knife pleats, box pleats or accordion pleats is a written guarantee of Califor nia designer Stephanie Koret, Well aware that a school girl can keep down the size and cost of her wardrobe with iwitchable units, this designer makes "sepa rates" of pleated skirts and of tops that oblige all down the line from blouses to reefers. Smart new blouse style that can be worn out like a middy or in like a shirt in Koret s new torso. fitting wool jersey. Striped spiral ly like a barber's pole in two toned colors, such blouses were designed to be the gay upper half of pleated skirt fashions. Typical styling of those is seen in the solid color wool jersey skirt, knife-pleated to look as straight as a plumb line when static, as fluted as an unfurled fan when it goes into action. Box-pleated skirts with ereases that stay as sharp as a gent's freshly pressed pants flaunt their permanence in all-woolen clan plaids. These invite both crepe and jersey blouses and fleecy reefers as campus companions. Reefers in a choice of colors are made to look their jauntiest with hand-span pockets, slot openings and gold shank buttons.

A plastic capsule shaped like nice fat olive puts on a trav- eler's-aid. performance for this summer's gypsies which would make a magician turn green with envy. Sealing in a variety of liquids to be used for removing nail pol ish, stopping a stocking run, eras ing stains from clothing, or what-have-you, capsules are sandwiched In between two pads of gauze or flannel, The opposite side of the small square gauze or flannel pad, which when given a squeeze breaks the capsule and saturates the material for instant applica tion, is a heat-sealing fabric of matching size. These liquid-filled capsule pads, which also provide the traveler with a skin lotion, a baby oil, various medicants and salves without adding the weight of bot tles, cans, tubes or applicators to luggage, offer another advantage to the summer vacationer. She can dispose of her traveling aid after its used and free her bag gage of even the feather-light capsules which have seen hen through her journey. All that a lady-vacationer has to do, for example, when she discovers the spot of gravy that strayed to her suit is to reach in her bag for a capsule pad de signed to make short shrift of this problem.
