Total Look Is The Costume II
By HELEN HENNESSY
Women’s Editor
Newspaper Enteprise Assn.
NEW YORK — (NEA) — Spr
ing has come to New York’s Se
venth Avenue. Outside it may
be bleak and blustery, but in
side the showrooms the current
fashion collections are as color
ful and soft as the season they
Were designed for.
From the look of things the
costume becomes more impor
tant in fashion each season. And
it takes many forms.
There is the shift under its own
Straight-line coat and the swea
ter coat with matching dress.
Other favorites are dresses with
open jackets and short jackets
With tunic dresses.
One three-piece costume shown
Was a solid-color dress with a
plaid topper and a scarf that
picked up all the colors of the
dress and the plaid. And the
costume suit sometimes totaled
four pieces—skirt, blouse, jac
ket and contrasting weskit.
Print dresses are teamed with
solid color coats that pick up one
of the shades in the dress print.
Sometimes two or three fabrics
are combined in one costume
done In a single color — or two
or three colors done in a single
fabric.
Bold bands of contrasting col
ors have been used with imagi
nation to section off hems, waist
and neckline. And the color con
trasts are exciting — pink band

Q — Is there such a thing as
snowblindness? Is it serious?
A — Exposure of the retina to
the rays of the sun reflected by
snow will cause a sunspot (blind
spot) due to exhaustion of cer
tain chemicals in the retina. The
same effect is produced by ex
posure to the direct rays of the
sun as in w'atching an eclipse,
exposure to the light of an elec
tric arc welder or exposure to
an ultraviolet lamp of the ozone,
emitting type.
A certain amount of conjunc
tivitis (pink eye) is usually as
sociated with this condition. The
severity of the injury depends

A — If your polyps are believ

without delay. Most polyps in
the digestive tract are benign
and require no treatment unless
they become so large as to ob

way to get rid of them, however
than by surgical removal.

DEAR POLLY — Try prepar
ing packaged gelatin desserts In
jars using a one-pint jar for one
package or a quart jar when
making two packages. There is
no need to measure the water as
they hold the required amount
per package. Such containers
are easily covered, take up little
room in the refrigerator and are
easy for the children to man
age when they serve themsel
ves. — P.S.V.
DEAR POLLY — If you have
to roll yarn into a ball and have
no one to hold it for you, do as
I do. Pull outadrawerina
small chest. The size would de
pend on how long the strands
are when the hank of yarn is
stretched out. I pull the drawer
out about halfway, place the
hank of yarn around it and then
pull up a chair and sit while I
comfortably wind the yarn into
balls. My chair is with me al
ways, a wheel chair, that is. —
MRS. L.F.G.
DEAR POLLY — I often en
joy my meals while seated in
front of the television. My trays
were not large enough so I now
use an aluminum cookie sheet
with four sides to it. A decora
tor gave me a book of discon
tinued wallpaper samples and
I cut out wallpaper place mats
to fit the tray. It looks most at
tractive. — ELIZABETH
GIRLS — Such wallpaper sam
ple mats present an idea for an
invalid's tray. They would al
ways be different and add a bit
of interest. — POLLY
DEAR POLLY — when you
plan to cut into fabric that may
ravel, first cut into a dry can
dle stub or block of paraffin with
the cutting blades of the shears.
Shake off excess bits and the
wax left clinging to the blades
will help present raveling.
Two identical clear glass bot
tles (preferably with flat sides)
filled with bright-colored mar
bles make ideal book ends for a
teen-ager's room.
A real handy ash tray can be
made for the patio with a tin can
and a section of screen door spr
ing. Stretch the spring so that
when its ends are clipped over
the edges of the can it will form
a cigarette holder. — DOROTHY
DEAR POLLY — I read Lu
cille’s idea of making blouses

out of old curtains. For some
time I have been buying drap
ery, curtain and rug samples on
sale and very cheaply. They are
usually of excellent quality and
the drapery samples make beau
tiful pillows, cover chair seats
and stools and I have even made
a sheath dress from just one
white curtain panel. Rug samp
les make good feet wipers in
front of doors and are easily
cleaned with the vacuum, some
will even go in the washing ma
chine. — FREDIA
DEAR POLLY — I find that
an old tennis racket makes an
ideal tie rack for clip-on ties.
The racket may be painted to
match the decor of the room or
clothes closet. — MRS. G.P.G.
