Bathing Beauties Aprons, Tunics And Rickrack Trim Give ^ ^yl Swim Suits Soft Dressmaker Look By ELSIE KENARD NEW YORK.—The use of softer woolens that cling to the figure like the skin on a peach and more dressmaker tricks in styling carry this summer’s swimming togs an other year farther from their tank suit origin. And just to set your mind at case, there’s no shortage of wool, the American Wool Council assure? us; merely an extraordinary de mand for fine - sweater - type knits and hug - me - tight jerseys and flannels on which top - notch dress designers have turned their talents loose. As a result you’ll find the new two piece bathing suite of nubby weave knits have bosom - flatter ing bras hung by halters and shorts with a lady - like front apron that ties at the waist. Long torso tunics that cover shorts also have a skirtv look. De signer Claire McCardell’s buttoned down-the-ride suit, shown left, of fine sweater - type greige knit is one high - styled suit that’s equally becoming to mothers as well as daughters. Dressmaker tricks are used on one - piece suits to make them look like two, as in the Claire Pot ter-designed black flannel, worn by the bathing beauty at the right. Here the masquerade is achieved by means of blue rickrack lined up to simulate a bra and a pair of shorts.

'4 Allergy Is Not A Good Cause For Divorce By RUTH MILLETT A ' screen actress who recently iivorced her husband on the grounds of cruelty claimed ne made her visit his desert ranch, although she was allergic to dust. Wives who keep their marriages Dut of the divorce courts know that il they are allergic to any of their lusbands’ interests the thing to do is to ignore the allergy. Plenty of wives who are allergic to fishing pretend that their idea of a perfect holiday is to climb into a dinky little boat under mosquito attack and fish all day. Plenty of other wives who are mentally allergic to their husbands’ college pals make them welcome through the years. Other women cook their husbands’ favorite dish at least once a week—even though they don’t touch it themselves. Not One - Sided That is just a part of marriage and it isn’t all one - sided, either. Look at the rugged men who put up with having a silly looking lap dog around the house because their ultra - feminine wives love the •‘cute little things.” Look at the men who say “Sure it’« a nice dress” about some cre ation that looks to them like noth ing short of a nightmare. Look at the men who live in houses without a single comfortable chair, because a comfortable chair would not fit in with the decorating scheme a woman dreamed up to impress her friends. Making a partner put up with something to which he is allergic constitutes cruelty in a divorce court — but in a successful mar riage it is just to be expected anc endured.

PHONE 5980 t, i __ INVASION SPURS NEED FOR WAVES “Invasion is not victory but only the prelude to realization of the peace to which most of the world is looking forward and the road to that peace is long and rough.” So commented Lt. Comdr. C. B. Neely of Raleigh, officer-in-charge pf recruiting and induction for the Navy in the state, in urging young women to join the Waves and “do their part in hastening the conclu sion of this war." “Many persons now are prone to minimize the scope of the war be cause the .long-awaited invasion has started,” Commander Neely said. “Nothing could be more damaging to the war effort. It still is, and will be for a long time to come, the duty of every Amer ican to put forth his and her great est efforts to bring about victory and peace. “Hundreds of men now on the fighting fronts are there because they were released from their chore posts by young women who have donned the uniform of the Navy. Yet, thousands of young women are urgently needed to re lease more men for combat duty. "The invasion, as was expected, will take a heavy toll of life. Those who fall must be replaced. That is possible only through the enlist ment of women who will take over jobs now confining men to shore duty. “The Navy is asking for more Waves — Bluejackets themselves are asking for Waves in order that sailors might be assigned to ships. It is the patriotic duty of every young eligible woman who can to be in uniform.” Women between the ages of 20 and 36 who are interested in join ing the Waves may contact the Navy Recruiting station, in the lo cal postoffice, for additional infor mation and completion of applica tion forms.
