Fall Fashions for Small Fry Parallels
Those of Adults; Bright Colors Good
Los Angeles Fall back-to- for cool days or extra warmth
school fashions for small fry and
the younger set prove that style
coraciousness knows no age limit.
The desire to be in fashion is
evident in the attitudes of tod
dlers through subteens. Parallel
ing the adult fashion world is
this fall's big change in silhou
ette to the dropped waistline,
long torso interpretations for
new elongated body lines. This
marks the first major change in
silhouette in many seasons.
Colors follow in this same trend
from basic greys and beiges to
high fashion colors of cherry red,
crosewood, avocado, cobalt blue
and the charred tones, with char
coal brown very important
In coats for both girls and sub-
teens the influance of the A-line,
with back belt treatment, is evi
dent. Casual coats often have side
or back belts, with slight fulness
falling at back and side. Drop
ped shoulder lines leading into
yokes are marked with stitching
or seaming detail. The long torso
look is often achieved in fitted
princess Ityles through low hip
line interest, created by pockets
or seams. Wool fleece, plush,
suede, and flannels predominate
in the coat scene in glorious
colors or basic tones.
Suits fos big and little sister
are pretty and practical in San
for lan wool flannel, in bright and
dark colors, with touches of
white rib knit. Detachable sus
penders skirts with all-around
box pleated skirts are topped
with easy-fit box jackets having
3-button closing and hem-line
pockets to accentuate the long
line look.
Separates are the mainstay of
school wardrobes. They are
doubly practical when the wash
able wool flannel or tweed skirts
slim or full can be combined
with changes of sweaters or
blouses. Knitwear another
backbone of school wardrobes
and fashion news for ' Fall
shows up in the bulky-look
sweaters to be worn as toppers
for wintry days. Important to the
knitwear look are three-piece
costumes in wool knit that are
handled like woven fabric. Sev
eral styles feature the long torso
overblouse with pleated skirts
and cardigan jackets. These are
in bright combinations of solid
colors with stripes.
Style conscious subteens, who
know what they want fashion-
wise, like slim separates, such
as wool tweed skirts to be worn
with sweaters and blouses; and
the perennial school favorite, the
jumper. The jumper, in wool
flannels and tweeds, can be worn
alone for more dressy occasions
designers have widened the
shoulders to form small cap
sleeves. For other occasions the
jumper is equally smart with
changes of blouses or sweaters
Professor Plans
'Old Maid' Study -
Washington (U.R) Old maids
have been singled out for some
singular research. v
The American Association of
University Women awarded
their Founders fellowship to Dr.
Gwendolyn B. Needham, Asso
ciate professor of English, at the
University of California, it was
announced here.
Her project is to complete a
book "The Type Figure of the
Old Maid in Anglo-American
Life and Fiction." .
Dr. Needham will analyze the
histsry of the old maid from her
appearance in 17th century
literature to the present. She
will show the effect that social
and literary stereotyping exerts
on individual and group thought.
Dr. Needham said the old
maid "is becoming extinct in life,
but still flourishes in literature."
And she intends to find out why.

Better Business Bureaus
throughout the country are seek
ing the cooperation of retailers
in combating "lure" and "bait"
advertising.
This kind of advertising preys
upon the unwary by inflating
the real prices of unidentifiable
. goods, then offering mark-downs
and discounts. Unfortunately,
many otherwise reliable stores.
believing it necessary to fight
fire with fire, have chosen the
same path. Equally unfortunate
is the bold fact that in buying
carpets it is very difficult to
check qualities and patterns so
that a fair comparison can be
; made.
THIS IS NOT SO WITH
LEES CARPETS
It is not so because JAMES
LEES & SONS CO. has taken
steps to protect customers buy
ing their carpets. The remedy
was simple. First they carefully
selected their dealers. Then they
purchased stamping machines to
nark the various quality names
oa every carpet of first quality
sold. Then they issued a sug
gested price list to the retailer.
Prices that were realistic neith
er too high nor too low. Under
this policy they believe it is
possible for you to buy Lees
carpets with confidence.
aHThen you receive your new
Lees carpet you will find the

purchased stamped all over the

Engineering Students
Like Music Precision
Pittsburgh U.R) Robert
L.- Arthur, director of the Uni
versity of Pittsburgh band for
17 years, says there is a definite
correlation between music and
engineering students.
The director explained that
it is more than coincidence that
nearly a third of his 120-mem-ber
Pitt varsity band are en
gineering students.
"In .music the individual must
produce the exact sound and
tempo desired, just as an en
gineer must be exact in his en
gineering ' problems and draw
ing," Arthur said. "There is no
room for error in either field."
Arthur said the pains an en
gineer gives to his mathematical
computations are reflected in his
other activities. The engineer is
willing to put in long, tedious
hours of practice to help make
him a musician.
The same urge for precision
and abilit3 to concentrate help
make an engineer excellent ma
terial for a marching band, Ar
thur said.

Enjoy family fruit favorites in luscious shortcakes. .'
Favorite springtime dessert of millions is shortcake with fresh
fruit. Arid no wonder, for the combination of velvety cake, fluffy
whipped cream and fresh fruit is almost unbeatable.
Homemakers agree that the quick-and-easy ways of shortcake
rate repeat performances on busy-day menus. To make this shortcake,
you simply Wend the few ingredients, pour the batter into a baking
pan and bake for 25 minutes. The result is a tender, delicately flavored
cake, just right to be heaped high with sweetened peaches or straw
berries. Top with a generous layer of fluffy whipped cream and garnish
with additional fruit. Cut ample servings of this luscious glamor des
sert and serve with hot coffee.
Because shertcakes are such popular confections, youH want to
serve them often. Make it easy on yourself by baking several and
freezing them. Then youll always have "company-worthy" dessert if
friends drop in unexpectedly. Or, perhaps it's easier to depend on the
baker on busy days. At the food store or bakery youH find freshly
baked shortcakes just waiting to be garnished with whipped cream
and your favorite fruit. See that all your flour and breads are en
riched. Enrichment adds three essential B-vitamins and food iron. This ,

As We Live
By ELIZABETH HURLOCK. PH.D.
Children Suffer
Most From Divorce
Divorce brings problems to
all involved even to friends
and acquaintances of the couple.
But the ones
who suffer
most are the
children.
Their secure
little world
suddenly dis
appears. They
may find them
selves uproot
ed and taken
Dr. Hurlock to a new place
to live, or they may remain in
the familiar home which is no
longer as it was before.
There are few divorces that
do not give rise to serious fi
nancial problems, and it is the
children who often come out at
the little end of the horn. They
must give up many of the things
they have been accustomed to,
because a divided income is not
enough to enable any member
of the family to live as well as
when the family lived together.
Many times the mother must
take a job to supplement what
she receives from her divorced
husband. Or she may receive
nothing from him and have to
bear the whole burden of sup
porting herself and her children.
May Be Placed in Nursery
wniie tney are young, xne cnii
dren may be taken care of by a
relative - or friend "while the
mother works, or they may be
placed in a day nursery. When
they are old enough that con
stant supervision seems unneces
sary to the mother who must
make every penny count, they
are left to get along alone as1
best they can. Often this means
carrying many' home burdens,
such as cooking their own meals,
which children of their ages
normally do not have to should
er. Perhaps the greatest hardship
for the child of the divorced
parents is the' sudden appear
ance of a new father or a new
mother. Few children can ac
cept the stepparent in place of
their real parent, "and the situa
tion is complicated when the
court has granted the real par
ent a chance to see the children
fit stated times. This enables
the child to compare his own
parent with the stepparent, and
it is usually to the disadvantage
of the latter. . ' -LETTERS
FROM READERS
(Q) Parents as pals: "Do chil
dren have the same respect for
parents who are pals and come
down to their children's level
as for parents who are more
aloof?"
(A) A child may have a differ
ent type of respect for parents
who hold themselves aloof and
play the role of "heads of the
family," but they do not have
the same affection and the same
feeling of closeness. Being a pal
to a child means coming down
to his level enough that he can
see parental flaws. However,

his respect will not be lessened
even when he sees these flaws,
provided that he has a deep af
fection for the parent.
(Q) Radio Serials: "I simply
cannot understand what women
see in the daytime serials com
monly called 'soap operas They
aren't even good writing in most
cases."
(A) If you listen attentively to
what you so scornfully call the
"soap operas," I think you will
understand what their appeal is.
In most cases they relate . to
everyday happenings of every
day people that could be the
listeners themselves. And they
always stop in an exciting part
of the story, which acts as an
incentive to the listener to tune
in the next day to see what will
happen next.
(Q) Always Right: "My mother
is in her seventies and is get
ting very difficult. She is al
ways right, or at least she thinks
she is. The more I argue with
her, the more certain she is that
she is right. What can one do
in such a case?"
' (A) You should have learned
by now not to argue with your
mother when it is -evident that
it will do not good. If she wants
to think that she is right, don't
argue. The only time, when
there is any possible reason for
you to argue is when your
mother wants to do something
that will obviously be harmful
to her physically. Otherwise, if
it makes - her happier to call
black white, humor her.

Lodge Women
Give Breakfast
About -35 women attended a
"come as you are" breakfast last
Sunday at the home of Mrs.
James Roberts. ' ,
The breakfast, given by chair
men of the local chapter of Wo
men of the Moose, was kept a
secret from other members until
they were called for on Sunday
morning.
A small charge was made for
breakfast 'and fines imposed on
those not attending and on those
who tried to improve their ap
pearance. . f
Orange Juice Said
To Give Energy
University Park, Pa. (U.R)
Researchers at Pennsylvania
State University have come up
with some information which
may or may not cause consterna
tion in the board rooms of soft
drink firms.
For those in need of that late-
afternoon rjickun, the advice
from Penn State is: "Reach for
the orange juice."
A study conducted by Drs.
Pauline Beery Mack and Maloise
Sturdevant Dixon revealed that
a swig of orange juice is one of
the best ways to increase energy
and avoid fatigue.
Furthermore, added the citrus
favoring doctors, orange- juice ac
complishes this revitalization
without the aid of laboratory de
veloped miracle ingredients
just plain old sugar and vitamin
C.
Drs. Mack and Dixon based
their conclusions on endurance
tests in which 149 children and
25 adults participated. The re
searchers found that after an in
take of 10 ounces of frozen or
ange juice, the subjects' could
do more push-ups and sit-ups
and were less tired after racing
up and down steps..
Further, some mental stimu
lus was indicated because the
volunteers turned in better jobs
on writing examinations.
However, anyone hoping to
turn a flaccid handclasp into a
grip like Atlas had best forget
about it. They found "no signifi
cant difference" in hand strength
even after a healthy slug or two
of juice.

Daily Employee Paper
Celebrates 1st Year
Kansas City, Mo. (U.R)
The Noon News is a year old.
It may be the only daily em
ployee newspaper in the coun
try. Hallmark Cards circulates the
Noon News to 2,000 employees
daily and sends it to another
1,500 co-workers scattered in
various other installations about
the country. The 8V6 x 11-inch
newspaper has been a client of
the -United Press since it began
publication. , .
Company spokesmen said they
felt their employees needed
more than the company maga
zine ' bulletin board announce
ments, and public address sys
tem service.
"Our daily newspaper has
done an, excellent job of im
proving employee communica
tions," a spokesman said.
Baseball and the weather get
into all issues, or at least the
Kansas City A's are in if they
are at home. Some issues deal
almost entirely with a company
promotion, but most issues carry
a good variety of late news, hu
mor, items about plant visitors,
and bits on policy and coming
events.
The employees were polled
about the paper and they voted
for its continuance, 89 per cent
plus.

dress will have a good-as-new
look when fall comes.
