Lighter Desserts Appear on Menus As a Result of Wartime Rationing

omemaking—

DESSERTS THAT ARE delicately light and full of flavor lead the fashion parade this season. Mere frugal cooking, made necessary wartime rationing, means that pies and cakes and puddings of the pre robust and hearty types, will appear less often on American tables. Snow pudding, as airy and white as its name suggests, is one of the me favorites that is being starred more often—and in even more

That “fai” is just about eaten up and the lean days will soon be upon us, Hardware stores and toy shops will either close or switch to other merchandise using non-priority materials. The cafeteria type of shopping, where you collect your own merchandise without the help of salespeople, will become increasingly popular because of

In the Study at The White House

Of all the rooms at the White House, that which most closely exe presses the personality of President Roosevelt is, appropriately, that in which he is spending much time these days—his study. . Its furniture is as varied as his interests. It includes a worn over=stuffed leather sofa, a miscellaneous array. of chairs, and 18th century mahogany breakfront filled with ‘books and, of course, the president’s desk, with a huge lion skin covering the crimson carpet in front of it. All the wall space not occupied with bookcases is lined with marine prints, and personal knick-knacks are everywhere.

Dietitians Will Don Army

Uniforms

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19 (U. P). —A new women’s service will don army uniforms shortly, but only for wear outside the United States. The new service will be composed of the army's dietitians and physical therapy aids, for whom no provisions had been made for overseas ‘duty until congress authorized

will now receive health and injury benefits for service abroad. They will have a quasi military status. In the United States, they will be civil service employees of the’ army, outside its jurisdiction. If they are needed -abroad, they will voliinteer for servite, ‘go’ into’ uniform, and be under the command of the surgeon general's office.

Uniform Secret

What uniform they will wear seems to be a military secret. According to WAAC headquarters, they will not be members of the Women’s Auxiliary corps. Col. Julia O. Flikke, superintendent of the army nurse corps, says they will not be under her jurisdiction. Heading the dietitilans as director will be Miss Helen Burns, chief dietitian of Walter Reed hospital here. Miss Emma Vogel, chief physical therapy aid at Walter Reed, will be director of the aids. Both will have the relative rank of major. All other assistant directors, chief dietitians and chief physical therapy aids will receive the pay and allowances and relative rank of captain; those holding less responsible posts will be first and second lieu-

ceive an increase in base pay of 10 per cent for overseas service.

Heavy Work as Beauty Builder

By ALICIA HART Times Special Writer

The G. FP. W. C. president said, : social activities, fashion shows and lectures on nonwar subjects should be out for the duration, and no woman's club

- |should hold meetings unless the pro-

grams are geared to the war effort. Our government needs the services of all women.”

Urges War Work

“If clubwomen feel that they must have relaxation from their heavy war duties,” she added, “then they should walk to their club meeting places, No clubs can use the excuse they do not know how to promote war programs, as the general federation has outlined programs on all phases of such work for its two

{and a half million members.

_ “To date more than one million programs, 400,000 speeches, and 300,000 kits on governmental war material have been sent out from na-

tional headquarters,” she said.

Color in Clothes

Individual taste may. still: dictate the color of your costume. Excepting a few shades of yellow and brown, needed by the armed forces, textile colors will remain practically the same. Quality of dyes compares favorably with peace-time products, too. . . . Limitations may appear in the home where there'll be fewer heavy colors for your blankets, slip covers, etc. ; Cheerful news when we remember the burned blacks and faded browns of the first world

PUSHING, lifting, carrying large! or heavy objects—be it in the nurs-| ery or the factory—can be & strength and beauty builder.

But you have to know how to handlé yourself, and particularly your torso, or your activities will cost you something in terms of back strain and loss of posture.

Your back and abdomen are not made to do the work of lifting, pushing, carrying. Your legs, arms, shoulders are built to do these jobs. Remember those simple facts, and you probably will learn quickly the good habits that you need. ! A common bad habit is to bend from the hips when you mean to pick something up off the floor. This looks awkward—and is. Bend your knees and stoop, keeping strain off your spine and putting the load on your sturdy leg muscles.’ ; 2 2 ”

ALERT PLANT supervisors advise the woman worker not to attempt lifting any object that’s more than a quarter of her own weight. Placing a heavy object squarely, in balance, on your shoulder helps to carry it easily because, again, this avoids strain on the back and abdomen. It leaves your chest, arms and legs free to take you surefootedly where you're going, too. If you have acquired the backbreaking habits of letting shoulders, spine and abdomen sag or sway as you work, you'll find it useful to practice correct motions.
