Hobby at the head of the women’s army. Men will have more respect for a women’s army headed by a womanly woman, and an attrac tive one at that, than they would for a feminine army headed by a woman who could be dismissed as a “battle axe.” Not that Mrs. Hobby is going to trade on her attractiveness. Far from it. She has already let it be known that she doesn’t want to pose for smiling or laughing pic tures, thinking that might give -———-—- - Mrs. Oveta Culp Hobby . . “No smiling or laughter pictures” some people an idea that she is not in dead earnest about her job. She is right about that, too, for she is good looking enough to find herself being called a “glamor girl”—despite the fact that she is a successful career woman who is also a wife and mother—and that wouldn’t help her any in doing an important job. It is hard for a woman with an important job to steer a middle course so far as she as a person is concerned. If she affects clothes and a personality so shorn of feminity that they border on the masculine she soon becomes a target for ridicule. But, if she has a galmor tag hung around her neck, she loses the respect of a lot of people who still find it hard to believe a wom an can have both glamor and brains. It looks as though Mrs. Hobby will be able to steer a middle course. It really is important that she do so, for a women’s army is a new idea to Americans—and the work of that army will be easier if it is established right away that the women who wear the uniform of the WAAC aren’t either glamor girls or battle axes—but intelli gent young women who are as eager as the country’s young men to help win this war. and who are entirely capable of doing the work that is assigned them.

The women members of Bundles for America come pretty close tc it. Go look at the products of their sewing rooms in any one of their 250 branches scattered through the country, and you’ll see. You’ll see a windbreaker, made of leather scraps from old purses. You’ll sell a child’s raincoat and hood made from a shower curtain, and decorated with red rubber flowers cut from an old pair oi rubber gloves. You’ll see children’s b edroom slippers made from men’s old fell hats. For buttons, the clever women use wood rounds sawed from broomstick handles, crocheted fas tenings, shells, and buttons c u t from bones from the butcher’s. The products of Bundles for America ingenuity will be on dis play at the Hotel Astor tomorrow and Wednesday in the hope oi stimulating women everywhere tc the same sort of waste-not-want not frugality. Bundles for America, with a 250, 000,000 membership, now sends some 10,000 garments a week tc the Navy Relief Society for distri bution to needy families of service men. Their next concern is the cloth ing of the five million migrants who are in need of help in mid western states. Their absolute rule is: Buy noth ing, use only salvaged materials.
