DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am a young girl 19 years old. I have a responsible position and have kept it since my graduation.in June, My father still thinks of me as a girl

of 13 or so. I have a very considerate and refined boy friend and my father gets very angry with the whole family if I have more than three dates a week with him. He is 22 and will be inducted in the navy the middle of December. Sunday is the most trying day as Dad feels that when we've seen each other during the week we shouldn’t be together on Sunday. It wouldn't be so bad if Dad would pep up and be gay but he won’t. He pouts around and I have one silent Sunday. It isn’t that Dad doesn’t like this boy but be believes we’ll get married and feels that I am too young. I have thrashed this out with him over and over and told him that I am not ready to settle down yet and neither is the boy. We will get married when the war is over and everything is more settled. Still Dad watches us like a hawk. We both feel uneasy when he is around. Do you think that my Dad should still take care of my personal affairs? Am I not old enough to decide some of my affairs? You can’t imagine how it is around home when your Dad goes around ignoring you. I've tried to please him put there always is something for him to grouch about. I'll appreciate your ‘advice very much. NINETEEN. ”n ” " Answer—Scratch the surface of a domineering father and youll find a jealous. child underneath. What could be more childish .than a father who pouts because his daughter prefers a young man’s company to his on Sunday or any other day? Of course he has his feelings nicely disguised under concern for

your welfare. If he knew how to inquire into his own motives, doubtless he would find that his objections to your seeing the boy so much were about one-tenth fear of your making a mistake in marriage and nine-tenths fear of losing you entirely. People pout for the purpose of attracting attention and controlling | # a situation. When the device accomplishes neither objective they cease to use it. Your cue is to

of his ‘approval and go cheerfully about your own business. After all the young man is going | § into the navy soon and when he comes back yow'll be older and more independent. Lucky is the child whose parents encourage his attempts at independent thought and action. Wise parents wean the child gradually from emotional dependence upon home, but in this case it is your father who has to be weaned. JANE JORDAN, Put your problems in a letter to Jane

Jordan who will answer your questions in this column daily.

By MARGUERITE YOUNG Times Special Writer NEW YORK, Dec. 7.—Cotton work styles including the first clothes to be designed-to-order for a large group of women in war production and actually worn by them at their lathes and benches and assembly lines, are causing quite a flutter in fashion’s dovecote. Big news in these originals: They both look well and work right. Outstanding number: A coverall, made all in one for speed, comfort and safety, but shaped and trimmed like Hollywood slacks and shirt. These are about to be donned by 18,000 fashionwise girl workers of the Sperry Gyroscope company of Long Island. Designer Vera Maxwell, who made the models to specifications of the girls themselves and the company’s safety engineers, calls the job “a marvelous experiment —one of the toughest and one of the most interesting I ever tackled.” Outstanding specifications from the girls: Legs “long enough to cover and still show our ankles;” material that wouldn’t soil too quickly but would have “more bloom than navy blue;” no hip pockets because those make you look broader; a snug belt for slimness; and a collar narrowed in back to be out of the way of coat and hair covering. In a half dozen meetings with spokesmen for the girls, the designer got their ‘ideas about how the coverall should look. Then she took a turn herself at the chief machines to see how the models should function. Next she consulted the company’s safety engineers on fine points of working hazards the suit had to help overcome, Samples now are being given a workout. To Miss Maxwell's knowledge, this is the first time a designer has worked directly with the prospective wearer. It's the way the legendary Paris style originator worked with his made-to-order customer,

THIS NUMBER and others showing what “they're” wearing in well-dressed war plants were paraded recently in Madison Square garden, just as pre-war garments that “they” were wearing at the races and resorts used to be exhibited for fashion scouts. At least one important fashion authority predicts a long-time effect of the new work styles. Miss Virgivia Jewell, stylist for the cotton industry, believes the combined functionalism or purposefulness, and appearance-appeal of the clothes will be reflected in

new working clothes for housewives as well as industrial women. “Before the housewife discards the work clothes which she has on hand,” says Miss Jewell, “she’ll discover ' this new kind. And watch her go for them. Not trousers, probably, but clothes, perhaps culottes, perhaps dresses, with new and special advantages.” War production management, safety councils, ald Uncle Sam have co-operated to produce other new work styles for far-flung factories. Many new costumes are adaptations of patterns developed by the departments of agriculture and labor. At the Todd Shipyards in Brooklyn, a stylish work suit is now being worked out. Welders and other heavy-work girls are wearing a heavy workman’s denim overall--too narrow of bib, they say, and too broad of hip.

HOME FRONT FORECAST

By ANN, FRANCE WILSON Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Dec. 7—Your precious baby’s diapers won't have to be basted on—but the war production board does admit that there is a “lack of plentifulness” in safety pins. There’s no actual shortage, but the pins you'll find in the market these days aren't the good old solid type that could pierce 10 thicknesses of diaper cloth with ease. The new war safeties buckle under such treatment because they're just not made of the same high grade steel they formerly were, All that safety pin manufacturers are now allowed in the

laundered daily, therefore it's made of unbleached muslin. But "this is a pretty becoming cream color, and the suit is decorated with flashing red stitching and four red plastic buttons in front. Allis-Chalmers girls at bench jobs, like electrical assembly, in Milwaukee, wear a tan jumperculotte over a brightly striped cotton jersey. The jumper has shoulder-freeing straps buttoning to bib at the shoulder, and has a divided skirt that actually looks like a skirt. How much style gets into the clothes for a particular plant depends largely upon whether a style-conscious executive takes an interest in them. Safety and utility requirements, however, persuade many of the major plant managements to go after a garment designed especially for their women workers.
