French Designer Lowers Waistline : New York (U.R) Which de signer is a woman to follow? One in Paris de-emphasizes the bustline. One m Manhattan says the fashion accent should be on the waistline. Designer Mainbocher, whose clothes are worn by some of the leading figures of society and the theater, decreed in his fall and winter collection that the waistline be "marked low," com bined with a trim fit through the ribs. The designer said the lower ing the waistline gave a "neat length of line from below the arm to below the round of the hips ... the look of a long, healthy stretch." His daytime dresses, suits, coats and short evening dresses are belted, with few exceptions, but the belts all are narrow apd slung low. His only comment about the flattened bustline: "Certain basic facts . of the body cannot be changed very much. Just how far the bustline can be made a movable thing is a moot question." 4 Three Initiated By Altrusa Club Altrusa club women initiated candidates during a meeting Thursday at the home of Mrs. Maude Codding.

Bureau Bulletin' On Adolescent Completes Series "The Adolescent in Your Family" published recently by the Children's Bureau, Depart ment of Health, Education, and Welfare, completes the series of bulletins developed over the years by the bureau to help parents in their relationships with their children through all the stages of growth. . - "The Adolescent in Your Fam ily" is designed as a sourcebook for parents, bringing together for them the counsel of out standing experts on the interest ing and . sometimes troubling years of emergence from child hood to adulthood. " ; "Pointing out that during the years from- 12 to 17 there is more divergence among individ uals than in ther lives up to that time ,the pamphlet makes no attempt to lay down in black and white rules of what is right and what is wrong, or what to do or not to do, either in terms of behavior, or of the correc tion of behavior," says Dr. Mar tha M. Eliot, Chief of the Chil dren's Bureau. "Since the groundwork for a smooth-sailing adolescence is laid years before, it is believed that parents -of younger children will find the pamphlet of in terest and value also. "Our purpose, in this bulletin, is to help parents see their ma turing children realistically, against the framework of the present day world, rather than through the nostalgic mist of their own pasts. It-should be useful for them to know such facts as that youngsters today reach puberty on an average of two years earlier than they did 50 years ago, for instance, and that one out of every four has an oul-of-school job now, where as in 1940 only one out of 25 combined school and job." Although the pamphlet points out that many aspects of adol escence have, as yet, been un studied, problems familiar to many households are considered. Daydreaming and- dating, the seemingly quick switches back and forth from maturity to child- likeness, the problems of plan ning for the right job, conflicts and the reason for conflict, all are examined.
