'B when 2 headache strikes and you

Gaynel zave him a push that
almost sent him sprawling on to
the floor. She managed to sit to
a partly respectable angle, at least.
Jimmy came on in and bowed
over her hand.
“It is a pleasure, Madame De-
Lyse,” he said. He, too, appeared
a very friendly young man., His
hair and eyes were black, and he
had a tiny mustache on his upper
lip.
“There’s just one bottle of beer
in the ice-box,” Fritz said. He
looked up, motioning for Jimmy to
be off, if he knew what was good
for him.
“No, thanks,” Jimmy returned
promptly.
“He'll think I'm a bad woman,”
Gaynel said after Jimmyv left.
Fritz said, “He knows I'm a bad
man.”
Gaynel wanted to know if she
could powder her nose and fix her
hair a bit. “We must get back to
soime sort of decorum,” she said.
“First on my knees to vou; then
asleep like the babes in the woods,
Wouldn’t you think that storm
would have broken by this time,
Fritz?” i
# * »”
Fritz assured her if he had had
anything to do with it. it wor'4
have broken long since. He
showed her where she could re
pair her hair and powder bher
nose. When she came back he
had the radio tuned in and had
opened the last bottle of beer.
“Perhaps this will refresh you,”
he said, “and show what a good
husband I am.”
Fritz motioned to the big chair
by the window, took hold of her
feet and placed them on a cushion.
“Now, if that doesn’t prove how
thoughtful I am,” he began. There
was another sound from the hall
way; a discreet cough, perhaps.
And yes—there was another young
man.
“Wouldn’t you know?” Fritz
murmured, straightening. “Al
most caught on my lowers this
trick . . . Come on in, Joe. Want
you to meet Miranda, my Maiden
Aunt. Miranda, this is Joseph.
The last—l hope, I hope, 1 hope—
of them for this night, heaven
help me . . . Maybe now you have
an inkling as to why this is called
The Goat’s Nest.”
Gaynel smiled over her should
er, putting up a hand. This young
man was fair and fat.
“This is the last bottle of beer,”
Fritzesaid. “We’d just love to share
it with you . . .” He made a ter
rible face and shook his head.
“Unless, of course, you’re dead
beat and feel you must hurry off
to slumber-land.”
. “I thank you very much,” Joe
said, “but your guess was better
than mine. It has been agreat
pleasure to have met your nice
old Aunt.”
“He'll think . . . well, T don't
know what he’ll think,” Gaynel
said.
“He never thinks,’ Fritz said.
“He lets me do that for him, so
don't let it worry your pretty
head.”
Gaynel said, “They all looked
like friendly young men, But they
certainly didn’t act like it. And
I know one thing, I must get go
ing, even though you are my fav
orite nephew, as soon as we finish
this last bottlf o£ beer.”
%
Just then the storm that had
been gathering all evening finally
did break through. It came with
a terirfic crack and crash. Gaynel
gave a shriek. She clutched Fritz
around his neck, practically chok
ing him to death.
He did not seem to mind that
way of dying. He held her close.
His lips met hers. In a long, sweet
kiss. A kiss that did much more
to her than any look, @
“Let . . . let go of me,” she
whispered shakily, managing to
pull away a little.
“You'll have to let go of me
first,” Fritz said. His tone was
teasing, but his eyes were tender.
They turned her heart upside
down.
WWRY. wou-. . ‘you . ..” She
pulled away this time, her voice
was shaky, but not from weak
ness. “I ought to slap your face,”
she said; and, “Even if it’s rain
ing cats and dogs, I'm going home
this minute, Frederick Fitzroy
Freyman. Please get my hat.”
“I’ll get it,” he said, “but don’t
be pissed.” He leaned forward and
kissed her lips again. “I asked for
it as much as you did, sweetness.
Ive been wanting to do that —
kiss you on your pretty kissable
lips—ever since the first time I
laid eyes on you and knew you
were the most gorgeous gal I'd
ever come across or ever would—
so help me Now slap me, if you
want to—and if you dare.”
She must not have dared, be
cause she did not. She melted in
to his arms, instead.

The Poor Man’s Philosopher
Clothes Don’t Make
The Woman |
NEW YORK —(AP)— A mere
male came up today with an
answer to what’s wrong with the
way women dress.
The answer is—women.
“They are too dictated to,” said
Charles Le Maire. “They accept
too much dictation as to what
they should wear.”
LaMaire is in a position to do a
little dictating himself. As ward
robe director for Twentieth Cen
tury-Fox films, he runs a staff of
200 clothes experts. They have
the pleasant chore of fitting lace
and fur pretties to girls like Betty
Grable, Jeanne Crain, Dorothy
McGuire, June Haver and Mau
reen O’Hara. .
But the clothing of film stars is
designed to their own personal
architecture. This isn't true of
the average woman.
LeMaire, a designer himself,
said the biggest mistake most wo
men make is to follow blindly the
dictates of fashion oracles—or to
try to pour herself into a certain
type of dress merely because it
looked good on a department store
mannequin.
“A girl shouldn’t pay any atten
tion to what she hears of Paris
styles,” he emphasized.
“She should think first of her
own shape, and dress to it. If her
figure doesn’t go with what she
wants to wear, then she should
change her shape.”
y\ Pencil Silhouette
Le Maire has only a weary sym
pathy for gals who think they
can achieve a pencil silhoutte with
a tight corset.
“The excess flesh has to go
somewhere,” he sighed. “It has
to go either up or down, forward
or backward.
This, he explained, is why there
are so many girls around who
look like they have either a front
or a rear bumper.
An advocate of the plunging
neckline, Le Maire has no moral
objections to falsies but ingists he
doesn’t allow them in the Twen
tieth Century-Fox studio. :
“That I absolutely prohibit.
Anything that isn’t part of the
body—anything that doesn’t move
with the body—it isn’t right.
“But some studios like them,”
he conceded. “Everybody in their
pictures wear them. I know one
actress who must have 50 bosoms
at home.”
No Grable
No, he didn’t care to name her—
but fans can rest assured it isn’t
Grable. :
Le - Maire designed wardrobes
for Broadway musicals and op
erated his own exclusive dress
shop in Manhattan before going
West.
He sees fashions today as in a
confused state, but believes the
trend is toward “an era of quiet
elegance.” ‘
- %Of course,” he said, “a girl can
be quietly dressed in a red gown.”

RED-HEADED QUEEN FOR THE CITY OF NEW ORLEANS
Miss Darwin Greenfield (above),
green-eyed red-head, was chosen “Miss
New Orleans of 1949” in a contest Thurs
day night. She holds the winner's trophy.
He personally favors clothing
that accents femininity, styles that
accent sex through subdued sug
gestion.
“Flo Ziegfield used to say he
didn’t want naked girls on the
stage—unless they had something
on to make them look naked)”
smiled the designer.
Le Maire’s own favorite dic
tates: :
“No dress is as important to a
well-dressed girl as what she has
underneath it. The big mistake
the average girl makes is she
doesn’t dress herself for herself.
She tries to follow a vogue.
“Clothes don’t make the woman
anyway—they only make her
talked about.”

Medical Course
Captain James F. Allen, MSC,
has recently reported to Medical
Field Service School, Brooke Ar

deals comprehensively with mod
ern developments in medical de
partment units and the changes
effected as a result of experiences
of World War 11. During the
course students will have an op
portunity to analyze administra
tive and operational problems.
Many of the subjects cover eom
mand and staff functions and pro
cedures.
Capt. Allen, a former student at
the University of Georgia, was on
duty with the Station Hospital at
Fort Dix, N, J. prior to reporting
to the School, and will return
there when the course is finished.
He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. J.
H. Allen of Watkinsville Rd.

BLOND BEARS
BELTON, Mont. —(AP)—Tour
ists seem to prefer blondes in their
bears. Whitey, a year-old bear of
light cinnamon color, seems to
cause more traffic jams than any
other panhandling bruin on the
Going-to-the-Sun highway in Gla
cier national park.
Park officials say that she's a
worthy successor to Gertie, anoth
er bear with a blonde hide. After
three seasons, Gertie tied up road
traffic so badly she had to be
trapped and taken to a remote sec
tion of the park.
Despite their light color, cinna~-
mon bears are of the black bear
family. :
Begin using lights in the laying
house, turning them on at 5:00 a.
