W vn buying clothes, buy theni
big enough It'- better to buy a
dress a size larger and have it
altered to fit trimly and comfort
ably
Any article of clothing should
be loose from the waist up. It.
should fit comfortably, not plas
ter tight. Clothes should not pull
apainst the chest, the diaphram
or the back Money spent on ex
pertly fitted clothes is not wasted, i
Drooping hem lines, sagging :
seams, pull across the middle. ?r <
hanging off shoulder scams can't
make a well-groomed appearance.
What about our skirt length?
Straight skirts should be longer
because without fullness they na
turally pull up when you sit
down, knees aren't pretty. Gored
skirts can be shorter because of
the extra fullness
Good posture along with well
fit t<d clothes can do a great deal
to improve our looks
C ?: top may be chopped
fine and put into a meat or sal
mon loaf to give it a piquant flav
or Some cooks like to lay celery

HOGS
Plenty of grazing crops, a full

a limited amount of grain and

growers to produce cheaper hogs

You Can Save A Life
Somewhere in the world . . on some distant battlefield . a soldier is dying
a soldi# r who can be saved if the vital blood flowing from his Mounded bod> is re
placed l>> life-giving blood plasma, llis life hangs by such a slender thread. Each
second his chance for survival grows smaller . the hope that has carried him
through so many tough battles begins to leave his pain-filled body And then gentle
hands lift him up. Capable fingers work swiftly against flying time . . . and a new
suige ol energy sweeps through his body as the healing blood plasma enters his
veins . . . blood that was given by ;> housewife in Ohio . by & business man in
New York . . . by a high school girl in California . . M<hkI that will mean the
difference between life and death to a soldier fighting for you and tor the country he
loves so well. Call Red Cross Headquarters today for an appointment that will take
just a few minutes of your time but which will mean years to the soldier whose life
depends on the blood you have given
The blocd plasma you give
means life to a soldier whose
chance for survival rests in
your hands . . . the money you
donate to the Red Cross War
Fund supplies the means to
carry on the magnificent work
being done by the American
Red Cross.
