day, the 12% miles of the police-

electric meter reader, but— Chandos Graham, who ‘has delivered milk for the Polk Milk Co. 23 years, does it “the hard way.” He says it was necessary for him to cafry some 70 pounds on the day he was checked by the official pedometer. The reason being _fhat a milkman never knows what a housewife is going to order.. And to meet the need, -he loads himself with two -of those eight-hole metal carriers “chock full” of an assortment of milk bottles, butter and other dairy items. And on the way back he usually tucks. an. empty bottle or two under his arms.

" Rides—Standing Up-

Back on the truck, he rides— standing up — perhaps half a block, then off he goes “on the run” again. “I haye to run most of the time to keep my schedule,” he reported, “and, I guess, to keep everyone else on time.” He "explained that because his appearance at any house ‘doesn’t vary more'than five or 10 minutes” housewives time -their chores by him—and even war workers en route to local plants pace themselves by the milkman. * Helping housewives with minor tasks “musn’t” throw the milkman off, either. . Like the electric meter reader, he is asked to do “favors.” “I helped a woman put up her _clothes line today,” he said. There are times that he carires out the ashes—opens the garage doors for

. the lady of the house ,.. and he

even has backed the car out of the garage for a woman not too sure of her aim. : Route Is Split

The problem of being a milkman is only “half” of what it used to be. His former route was divided in two sections when the rubber problem came along.

The war has earned one thing for the milkman. Better sleeping hours. The stay-up-lates need worry no longer about being accused of “being up with the milkman.” Today he doesn’t start on his route until 7 a. m. Prior

3 Hoosier Heroes Get Purple Heart

THREE HOOSIERS on duty somewhere in New Guinea were among 13 men awarded the Purple Heart for voluntarily salvaging ammunition from a dump

and in the yard.” Most of the time, however, he wears “old” shoes for these off-duty chores. While he doesn’t mind being on his feet after standing up all day, Mr. Graham says he “hates” to drive his car, which has been “put up” for the duration. He says the only time he drives is when his wife, six girls and his boy, “want to go some place.” Mr. Graham is partial to horses and says theyre “coming back.” He drove horses on his route from 1919 to 1926. The Polk compa he said, has replaced trucks wi the traditional horse on 40 routes.

Horse Is Friend The horse is the milkman’s

"friend, for he lightens the burden.

“They'll follow you up the street, ” he. said in their favor, “you don’t have to go back and drive them like you do a truck.” He favors the horse, too, because the crowded war-time schedule he maintains with a‘ truck doesn’t allow Mr. Graham time to eat

. until the end of the day.

But there, too, was a tip for walkers: “If you eat too much you get lazy and can’t walk as well.”

SCRAP BUSINESS IS DOUBLE 1917 PEAK

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7 (U. P.).— The war production board reported yesterday that the 1942 scrap metal business is twice as large as it was in 1917, peak production year of the first world war. But scrap dealers are operating on a small margin of profit, WPB said. “There is no chiseling involved when the junk man offers only onehalf per pound for some good grade metal such as an automobile tire rim, or even less for an old bed-

The woman who is size 36-44 and]!

with a girdle. But the girdle must| 3 be very firm to hold in the hipline.}: " A firm girdle, however, does not}: it merely|i shifts ‘it to another section.of the:

silhouette. In this instance, because the thighs are generally large in proportion: to the hipline, the flesh is generally pushed up—to a roll of fat above the waistline of the girdle, where there should be no excess flesh at all. The result of this bad corset-

. ing is an extremely bad silhouettte,

because, while the figure looks smaller at the hipline, it looks larger at the waist and the entire effect of corseting to control the hipline is lost. The other methodd~of fitting a

figure of this type with an all-in-one—is the method that involves

" extensive alterations. This type of

full-hipped figure is usually smaller above the waistline than it is below it. Therefore, the all-in-one that fits and controls the hipline is too big for the bustline. The brassiere and waistline . sections must be re-shaped and cut down to fit the figure, The result’ of these alterations is that frequently the entire ‘line of the foundation is completely - lost—because the foundation was never designed to be altered so drastically in the first place. The foundation seems to fit

- much better, but the line is neither
