Free Lecture on Christian Science

Is cordially Invited to attend.
It doesn't

younger but
GOODNESS!
WHEN YOU LOOK at an
automobile of, say, 1926,
you lean back and laugh. Four
cylinder vibration! The big
wheel and little tires! Storm
curtains! Two -wheel brakes!
My, what a difference from the
cars of today,
j
But when you look at gaso
line, it doesn't appear much
younger than it was a decade
or two ago. Actually it's so
much peppier, so much more
on its toes that experts can't
give you an exact measurement
of the advance.
Only since the establishment
of octane ratings six or seven
years ago have comparisons
been possible. Nobody thought
to save any real vintage stuff
for the statisticians. Since half
way back to 1926, the octane
rating of ordinary gasoline has
progressed from 60 to a na
tional average of 70.2, in step
with the demand for higher
octane fuels brought about by
Increased compression in en-
Sine5-
Yet. the price of gasoline
has steadily declined while the
quality of the product has been
zooming like an eagle at play.
Government figures show that
in no other major field has
the public so extensively been
given more for its money.
This, we believe, is one rea
son why the United States, with
6 per cent of the world's pop
ulation, now has 70 per cent
Of the world's motor cars
why everybody rides, why ev
erybody enjoys the outdoors,
why America is the land of
the care-free.

Style Trends and
Care Of Lingerie
1 Told by Miss Ladd
"You're going to be a 'lady and
love It," says Miss Roberta Ladd,
traveling washablllty specialist from
the Lux laboratories. "Clothes this
season have a picture-book quality
that makes you feel completely
charming and act with grace.
"Quaint words you haven't heard
in years come to life with new fresh
nessbustle, polonaise and camisole.
The new fashions start with your
figure, of course.
"First, you must carve Inches off
your waist fortunately not with
torturous whalebones aa your grand
mother did. The new all-in-one
foundations ra remarkably plastic
though firm about whittling your
waist and rounding your hips. Even
girdles are out Inches above your
waistline to confine unruly dia
phragms and are held in place with
tiny bones cleverly placed for com
fort. You'll look like a lovely flower
.... ON . .
on a slender stem. Ooraet materials
are so incredibly light these days
that washing Is a simple matter-
Just dipping them up and down In
rloh Lux suds whisks them clean
protects their fit, too.
"Lingerie has been prettied, vp,
also, for Its plaee 1b the fashion
picture. Lace-makers are busier than
they've been In years turning out
handsome lingerie laces alenoon,
blnche, val, and the quaint embroi
deries so fashionable 80 years ago.
Whole bodices of slips are often
made of lacs then an enormous
deep frill whipped on lavishly at the
hem. Wide lace shoulder straps are
flattering under sheer blouses. But
In spite of all this lushness, lace
t rimmed slips wear remarkably well
with proper care.
"To be truly feminine, your dress
must look sppeallngly fresh. Perhaps
that's one of the reasons colors are
having the play of their Uvea. Plaids
and stripes look gay and fresh, too.
After the most 'washable' summer
In years, more than ever, women are
demanding washables all year around.
Manufacturers have developed score
of silks, rayons, and rayon and cotton
mixtures that can he washed with
complete success.
