The Crosbys to Bar Flip Gimmicks in New Corporation
By H. D. QUIGG NEW YORK, Feb. 29—Easter is coming. Have you felt the need for an Easter egg striper—cradle type, easily adjustable for stripes fat or lean? Have you tried the ball-point-pen-type lipstick ap-
plier which draws a fine line and insures a continuous flow? Do you yearn for an apron with built-in pot holders? For glasses with rear vision mirrors so you can see what's going on behind you? Stifie that yearning. They're not available. They are the lost pbrainstorms of inventors. Bing Crosby rejected them, -bless him. And he turned down lots of others, just as useful. All were submitted as working models by inventors. Some were just too costly to produce. " ” - BING, BESIDES being prdprietor of a node-studded throat and four sons, is papa of a dozen corporations. His latest corporation, which has its com-ing-out party here Monday, aims to market innovations. For the debut, the Crosbys (brothers are vice presidents) will show 268 items in production. {They don't have flip gimmicks like those listed above. Just sensible stuff. Like: A lunch box disguised as a cosmetics case so office girls who are ashamed to carry lunch boxes can take lunch to worki and pretend they're models going on a job. The box converts into an overnight bag by removing lunch and inserting clothing. i

An apron for small girls, chaps for small boys, which purportedly keeps them quiet by quenching their craving to poke into people's pockets. Each garment has 15 pockets; each pocket contains self-amusement devices—games, crayons, postcards, snub-nosed scissors This last item was invented by a desperate housewife.

Finds Peshawar Flight Short and Delightful
By ELEANOR ROOSEVELT
PESHAWAR, Pakistan, Feb.
29—Qur flight to
Peshawar was delightful and shorter than we expected. The countryside below us was a mixture of desert and
irrigated fertile land, delightfully green, and rugged
mountains, which are bare of all vegetation. This is a tragedy because they tell me that once all these mountains were covered with trees. After lunch we left. to drive up the Khyber Pass. This was really a sentimental journey for me _because I had r em e mbered my fathers © description of going through
this pass on Indian hunting trips. I
kept trying to think what his “safari” would have looked like alongside our line of motorcars. os ” LJ ON OUR WAY A fort was pointed out to me where the Sikhs had fought against the British and their Commanding General, Hari Singh, had been killed. Whereupon the Sikhs propped up their leader with his face looking out of a window so no one would know he was dead. He remained in that position for four days. When we entered the tribal area of the Affridis I got out and was greeted by some 29 tribesmen who had brought three sheep to give to me and
who @vould; after my departure, .
sacrifice them and use them for food.
The Affridis guard the pass and are paid by the govern-
ment. All along the way one,
line—or men .standing motionless against the rocks-—all
within signaling distance of
one another. I was constantly reminded of Kipling’s tales, for this was his country.’
- ~ - A LITTLE farther on our journey we stopped and climbed a little hill to see the view, Then we-reached a guest house where we were offered tea and I was
greeted by another group of -
tribesmen who presented me with more sheep. Here I made an unheard of request to be allowed to go into one of the native houses. This caused a good deal of consultation but finally it was agreed that on my return I would be allowed to do so. We drove to the end of the pass, sometimes seeing little patches of green, sometimes just stark rocks towering above us on either side. At the end the sentry boxes of Pakistan and Afghanistan stand almost side by side, but one may not cross the line. Otherwise, one might find it extremely difficult to return.
= s ” WE PAID A VISIT to the house as we requested earlier and were given green tea in beautiful Russian china eups. These date back to the days of the Czars and can no longer be bought.

The Mature Parent—
Americans Are Good Givers, But Not, Graceful Receivers
By MURIEL LAWRENCE ITHIN a few weeks, she will leave her home to live with a married daughter. “I dread this step, “as I have always kept my self-respect and have been independent of my children, now financial trouble forces me to put my pride
in my pocket and live in another's home. It is a terrible adjustment.” It is wrong to ‘base one's self-respect on independence of
love. We need love as we need
food and water. When this reality collides with the that we are above needing it, we get hurt, ° We Americans are far too apt to think that self-respect is financial independence. This impression which makes so much unhappiness for children
and old people is due to our fear and hate of receiving. We are pretty good givers, but we re-
ceive very badly.
I think we are tragically blind in the matter of appreciating the fine discipline involved in takWe can't get out of childhood fast enough, and we regard old age with terror and dismay. Our contempt for takers and our exaggerated admiration of givers give us only our middle years for dignity and ease of spirit.

By VIVIAN BLAINE BEFORE I.give you my plan for‘ exercising, I want it clearly understood that I do not believe in
exhausting routines which“leave little strength for anything else. Let's face -it. Exercise ‘can't help vou reduce. If you weigh 150 pounds, for example, you will only burn 114 calories per hour at ironing, and there are approximately 4000 calories in every pound.
u n » . THE VALUE OF exercise is
that it redistributes your weight and whittles inches. It goes almost without saying that sensible daily exercise tones your muscles and makes you feel better. I like to wear a bathing suit while I'm stretching and bending because it allows me com-, plete freedom of moveient. Low-heeled ‘or flat shoes, course, are a “musts” One of my favorite exercises, which I gladly pass en to you, is simple to follow and fine for trimming down the midriff.

Purky and Betty Best Lund. { The Sunday meeting will be | open to all former chorale members. So far the membership list only has 250 correct names and addresses. Alumnae who have not been contacted recently by card are asked to give their names to Mrs, Otto. The election will be followed by a tea.
