Then vacuum Woman Editor Sounds Call For Return to Femininity By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York -(UPD- Okay girls. Let's start being all- woman again and return the pants to their rightful owners the men. . . Women' don't look like women, talk like . women or act like women once they don trousers. The feminine de mureness, the softness of voice disappears. The mannish stance and masculine sprawl take over. " Pants, to put it bluntly, rob us of our sex appeal. I bring up this subject after long brooding, because we seem to be sacrificing fem ininity for comfort. We have adopted Bermuda shorts, short shorts, slacks, toreador trou sers and jeans as our costume from sunup to sundown: for the supermarket, for the trip to the station, for shopping downtown. We're forgetting to be girly type girls. Wrong Sort of Whistles ' Doubt my conclusion? All right, check for yourselves on the tune of the whistle from the men standing on the cor ner. The whistle if there is one at the girl in Bermudas is usually derisive. - Any man who gives an ap preciative reaction to this sexless apparel is a candidate for psychiatry. Now, before the wrath of the shorts, slacks, pedal push er, Capri pants and jeans manufacturers pours in on me wholesale, let me say this: Pants do have a place in our wardrobes. But for leisure and for work. Who would argue against them for the tennis court, the family boat, the picnic grounds? Or, what is more practical when you're washing the dog, scrubbing the bath, painting the bed room or pruning the roses? Although come to think of it, my mother - did every household chore, including painting, in dress and apron. We children remember her as an always feminine person who permitted her daughters no nonsense with shorts. Never For Street Wear We wore them for sunning in the backyard or for active sports. Never for street wear. We would have been blistered if caught even at the corner drugstore in jeans. After this column, I may be labelled a fuddy-duddy but if you're a trousers advocate, could be you haven't taken an honest look at yourself in a three-way mirror. The bulge the skirt dis guises, the slack discloses. One man in our office com mented that "not one woman in a thousand looks good in slacks, especially viewed ' in departure." "That," said another, "is giving the girls a break on percentage." f Veterans to Hold Picnic in Ashland District 7, Veterans of World War I and their aux iliaries will hold a meeting at the east end of Lithia park, Ashland, on Sunday, July 12, at 10 a.m. There will be a covered dish luncheon at noon. Visiting women are asked to bring salads or desserts. 4-H Club News Forestry Squirrels ' Elk-Trail Forestry Squir rels met June 25 at the home of Glenda Albert.

' Good Buys Pork, Eggs New York -(UPD- Good buys on fresh and cured pork prod ucts, torn turkeys, fryers and eggs await this week's thrifty housewife at food marts across the nation. She'll also find large supplies of fresh fruit and vegetables. A 20 per cent increase in the supply of gobblers over a year ago has made torn tur key an exceptionally good buy for this time of year. Fryer marketings continue heavy too and consequently prices this week should average about two cents below a week earlier.

Center cut chops can be found as much as a dime a pound cheaper this week than last. Other meat supplies around the country this week end in clude leg of lamb, fresh ground beef, rib end roasts, smoked picnics. : Egg prices resumed their decline in many sections of the country over the past week after a two-week ad vance.
