It's a man's problem
A style expert has been defined
as one who makes a woman feel
modest when she isnt. We men
aren't bothered with such people.
But we do have our troubles.
Foremost among these troubles
Is the Indian underwear. You
know, the kind that creeps up
behind you.
Another thing that we have to
be careful of are suits that fit like
paper on a wall. You never see a
wall bend over, do you?
Then there is the matter of style.
It seems that if one fool wears it,
it is bad taste. If enough fools wear
it, it is style.
Zippers will never crowd buttons
out of the men's clothing picture.
I'd like to see some sap try to put
a tipper in a collection box.
Suspenders are still holding up
from strain of competition from
the belt.
That's about all for the men but
let's see what's in store for the
woman.
It's a woman's problem
Soon the girls will be showing
the new spring styles and the new
sprhig styles will be showing the
girls.' This brings about the prob
lem of what women should wear
and how they should dress.
There seems to be a consensus of
opinion Inst the only way a girl
can drers to please a man is with
the shades up. I don't know.
Someone once said that in girl's
clothing, it's the little things that
count. The littler they are, the
more they count.
God pave women feet to walk
on. Evidently, the shoe designers
kept this in mind. The new shoos
are all feet.
Women will continue to wear
silk stockings for millions of
reasons. Everyone of them a man.
As for underclothes, I can say
this. Not co long ago, underclothes
were unmentionables. Today, they
are nonexistables.
And the gowns. Some gowns are
fitting and proper. Most of them
arc just fitting.
Hats? Expect anything.
Half the outfits that women
wear look as if a stitch in time
would saw some embarrassment.
Course, there is one consolation.
The girls who make their own
clothes will never die of over
working. Still, it seems that the littler the
piece of clothing the more ex
pensive it is. It's just like one
lather said, "If daughter sees a
fox m some store window, I'm
round to fee the wolf r.t the door.
Everybody's problem
nis stickler of what to wear
and how it is to be worn is a hard
the fact that the nudist population
of the United States swelled by
l's' last year. (Statistics taken

however, should be enumerated
there. Such students should call or

the census if they are to be

Employment status.
The queries on which parents
are most likely to be uncertain are
those relating to employment
status. Information is wanted on
the following points:
Number of weeks the student
worked in 1939 (equivalent to full
time weeks); number of hours he
worked during the week of March
24 to 30, 1940; present or if seek
