me, too, and my friend found it out. That is what made him mad. I try to tell him that his pal is just my friend but he does not take it that way.

: Answer—I think you've made it vious to the man that you are not ready to be satisfied with the devotion of one man. If you were whole-heartedly in love with him you would instinctively refrain from upsetting his sense of security in your affection by writing to his pal. It is flattering to you to have two men in love with you and you don’t care enough for either to eliminate the other. Isn't this true? . ‘It isn’t fair to play one man off against the other, no matter how pleasing it is to your vanity. Either choose between them or be perfectly honest and admit that you like them both. Then if your boy friend can’t stand the competition, let him make the decision whether he wants, to write to you or not.

Short Frocks for Evening
NORELL, young New York dress designer, has a distinctly one-sided —but fascinating—slant on evening fashions this season. There is not a long evening dress in his entire evening collection. He shows only short evening dresses. Most of these cover only one shoulder. He calls this new silhouette his Greek tunic line, and it does suggest the form-revealing draperies of Greek dancers. Above a brief bias skirt, the bodice is simple—two triangular pieces of material drawn tightly across the torso to tie in a huge bow on the right shoulder. The left arm and shoulder are bare. Norell sometimes accents this slant by the use of contrasting color—such as pale blue or pink on a black dress—to edge the bodice and make the bow.

By: PRESSLY PHILLIPS : ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., March 31.—Remember the widow Zander
wore a “transformation” that did
things to her looks, and to Ler elderly admirer, Uncle Bim. St. Petersburg has been transformed, too, not by a ‘trick hair-do, but by the presence in its midst of more men in uniform than most of its residents
Most significant of the many changes is that which turned the swanky hotels on the waterfront into barracks for doughboys. Where
in idle luxury, in suites costing up to $100 a day, humble buck pri= vates now sleep four to the room, traversing halls and corridors formerly heavily carpeted and hung with costly paintings and tapestries. Vaulted lobbies accustomed to the restrained ‘conversation of paying guests now vibrate with the sharp commands of top sergeants, and bulky army trucks now thunder up to entrances once frequented by magnificent limousines.
Civilians Outnumbered
Streets and avenues where motor cars with license plates from every American state had the unchallenged right of way now resound with: the marching feet of troops in
fatigue gray-green on their way to and from classes, eating places and barracks, and it is the motorist who
marching by. Men in uniform often outnumber civilians on the city’s broad sidewalks: many of the large: cafeterias for which the “sunshine city” was
the army, sending residents and vies itors to the smaller and more” ‘out-of-the-way dining roofs’ meals. 3 St. Petersburg’s amusement program, too, has undergone a. revolutionary thange with: the arrival of the“army air force. The spacious ballroom on Recreation pier, formerly devoted to civilian dancing and entertainment, is now an exclusive rendezvous for men in uniform. Waterfront park, where thousands cheered the spring training games of the world champion St. Louis Cardinals and New York Yankees, is a combination drill field and sports arena for soldiers. Bayfront parks, although still open to the public, ‘are dotted throughout the day with groups of army trainees, usually seated in the shade of tropical vegetation, listening to the voices of

Clean Containers v For Good Coffee
Rationing has revived the old arguments about the best way to make good coffee. Boiling, the drip method, percolation and the vacuum return process each has loyal supporters. On one point, however, there is no disagreement. If coffee is to have the satisfying flavor that makes it one of America’s favorite beverages, the inside of the container must be spotless for each fresh brew. Wash the coffee maker thoroughly after every use. Scour the inside until not a trace of brown stain is left, then wash in warm suds, rinse and dry with a clean towel. A coffee maker that has been properly washed will not leave a. speck of brown stain on a white cloth,
Fresh Fish Fresh fish isn’t a matter of guesswork. Watch for these characteristics: Gills should be red. Scales should stick closely. Eyes should be bright and bulging. Flesh must be free from slime, elastic and firm to the touch. In fact, when you touch the flesh with your finger, the finger should leave no impression.

Age-Balance Shifts
And there has been another change which makes pointless the
good-natured jibes of those who enjoyed making an issue of the undisputed fact that St. Petersburg was a haven for elderly and sometimes decrepit visitors from here and there. Although many of these most welcome sojourners' are still here, the age-balance has shifted to the younger side as thousands of youths in their early 20's take the places of older people unable to come south in wartime. The abundance of young men in Uncle Sam’s uniform has given an unusual twist to the city’s vital statistics. Where young women once outnumbered young men, the opposite now is true, and marriageable
scores of them march to the altar on the arms of handsomely uniformed air corps men. The social pages of the city’s newspapers tell a story of concern to the city’s few eligible and' ununiformed bachelors, with picture after picture of brides taking army husbands.
Petersburg is on the verge of a transformation the like of which has not occurred in its history. Primarily a winter resort, the city, after April 1, has always settled down to a leisurely five or six months of comparative inactivity, many hotels and shops closing and a large proportion of its permanent residents taking vacations in the North. This summer all will’ be different. Because of travel restrictions, few residents ‘will leave home. The army population not only will remain, but will increase. Sidewalks will ‘be thronged with men in uni-
places will be Crowded. For the du-
Petersburg will be a Year-alound city.
