Since he has unusual power in this national emergency and since he is Commander in Chief of the ar my., we would be pleased to have him speak against this practice in all government departments. Now that he has spoken, we shall eagerly watch for patriotic obedience to this policy. Many loyal American Negroes are wait ing for opportunities to serve our country in every way. We quote the President’s state ment: “No nation combating the increasing threat of totalitarian ism can afford arbitrarily to ex clude large segments of its pop ulation from its defense industr ies. It is even more important for us to strengthen our unity and morale by refuting at home the very theories -which we are fight ing abroad.” “Our government cannot count enance continued discrimination against Americon citizens in de fense production. Industry must take the initiative in opening the doors of employment to all loyal and qualified workers, regardless of arce, national origin, religion or I MASKS FOR YOUR WALLS The trend today toward sculp ture is more and more apparent. A good way to break up your wall space other than with the ordinary use of pictures is masks or placques. The play of light on the subject is also an important ele ment in achieving the most dra matic effects of such decoration. Keep the Right Hang of Trousers This simple matter has its place in the ensemble of the well dressed man — one sees large cuiis Hap ping around small feet—cuiis stop ping too far above the shoe top— and'sometimes they trail in the dust. There are two correct solu tions of this problem — one is to allow a slight break over the instep — the other, for *he bottom of the trouser to touch the shoe.

Although it is frequently said that the eyes are “the windows of the soul,” I sometimes believe that the hands mirror a person’s charac ter almost as well. In a sense, the hands move in a wider orbit than the eyes, and their free and spon taneous actions perhaps claim other people’s attention more than we realize. We all notice hands on occasion. Sometimes our attention is forced on them. Restless hands, fidgety hands, or quiet hands; wTell-groomed, ill-groomed; the wrarm hand clasp, the clammy handshake—we have them all. There are certain occa sions when you especially notice other people’s hands and your own, as for example, when you are play ing cards. You have an opportu nity to study the hands of those around you and to compare them with your own hands. You study their size, length, nails, skin texture, movements, etc. When you do make such observa tions, how do your hands compare with those of other women? Perhaps you wish the fingers were a little longer and not quite so thin, and stubby—or that your nails were more almond-shaped. Very few peo ple have perfect hands, but any woman can make her hands attrac tive if she will watch two things: (1) the use of her hands, and (2) the care she gives them. The first consideration has to do with the gracefulness of youriiands. That doesn’t mean you should take a course In dramatics. But here’s a tip which comes from the dra matic school: Never gesture for the sake of gesturing, or feel that it is necessary to do this in order to be expressive. A movement of the hand should be as natural as a sincere smile, and as spontaneous. It should be expressive of a thought or feeling within you. The thought or feeling should come first and the gesticulation spring from it, without any effort on your part. Such move ments will then have a certain natural grace. If you have a tend ency to throw your hands around like a Dutch windmill, or to effect certain mannerisms, try to curb these habits. Keep your hands in Quiet repose when you are not using them. Avoid nervous fidgeting or playing with jewelry, or parts of your dress or coat. Of course, I need not caution you against biting your nails or fingers. The second important considera tion is the grooming of your hands— the nails and skin. During these more or less wintry days when you are inside heated rooms, it is very easy for the hands to become rough and chapped. Sometimes this is caused by not thoroughly drying them after they have been in water. At the best, however, you will prob ably find that a good hand lotion is necessary to keep the skin soft and pliable. Your nails should also be faultlessly manicured—special care given to the cuticle and shaping of the nails. Then, too add the finish ing touch, a well-chosen shade of polish should be applied. Your hands, the same as your hair, deserve special beauty atten tion. What are your beauty problems? Write: Marie Downing, Larieuse Beauty Bureau, 3509 Lindell Blvd., St. Louis, Mo., and she will be glad to answer them. Be sure to enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope. British ambassador to the United States, talks over farm problems with George Longan in the lat ter’s farm Miles-of-View, here.

READ Th, GUIDE I# happened one night— Late at night, a fire in a private garage burned a section of telephone cable putting many tele phone lines out of service. In a short time, a telephone repairman was busily at work splic ing cable by lamplight so that service would be restored as soon as possible. \ Nowadays, telephone service is more near ly trouble-free than ever before — and when trouble does happen, we often are able to make repairs before telephone users are aware of it.
