Buy Clothes That Are Individual; Follow Basic Rules In Selection
SOME DAY in the future, there'll be a race of women, individualists all, each of them wearing the style specially designed for her—for her height. weight. coloring and personal idiosyncracies. These women will} regard with pity our age when a five-foot stout must wear lines orig-| inally created for a five-and-a-half-foot slim, simply because “every-| One I= wearing it, my dear.” In there are rumblings in] the direction of rugged individual-| ism even in these times.

We, the Women War-Rationing Teaches Value Of Simplicity
By RUTH MILLETY
ONE THING we women have learned from the National Defense program is how easy it is to get along without some of the things we used to figure were absolute essentials. More and more often when we walk into a store with the money to purchase something we “need,” we find that article no longer for sale. And when that happens we are amazed at how easy it is to get along without the thing we were prepared to buy. As a matter of fact, well probably find our lives much : simplifies, if Miss Millett because of Government priorities, we are able to buy fewer and fewer things. We've been so fascinated by gad gets in the past that our houses are filled with them. And for every one that is in constant use, there are dozens we use only occasionally, or have relegated to top closet shelves. It's been that way about every= thing from kitchen equipment to clothes. We're loaded down wit things. And if our buying is noticeably curtailed in the fufure, most of the things we can't get will be things we can do very nicely with= out. Not only can we do without them, but we'll find that with fewer things cluttering up our houses and our lives, the very business of living will be simplified. & 4 2 THAT is exactly what has happened in Britain. When things can't be bought, there is no reason for having to try to keep up with the Joneses. People just get in the habit of making the best of what they have to do with, and not wore rying or apologizing because things aren't done exactly as they once were. So finding we can't buy every-
