Beauties’ Hints
'Liquid Stockings' Demand
Absolutely Hairless Legs
VICKI LANE: puts her best foot forward.
By ALICIA HART
Are you putting your best foot forward these stockingless, bare
footed days?
Those pump bumps, callouses and soft corns you accumulated
over the winter, and have thought all along did’t matter because
they didn’t show, will certainly cause a lot of raised eyebrows when
you go sun bathing this summer.
To put them in shape, give them a good going over each day,
as does shapely Vicki Lane.
After your daily bath use a callous file to remove toughened skin
and follow it with a cream massage. Don’t try to remove corns. It’s
much safer to go to a chiropodist.
The bumps on the backs of heels should be rubbed briskly with a
good quality, rough bath towel, then softened with the same cream
massage you gave the calloused area.
And be certain when drying your feet to dry them completely, es
pecially between the toes. Powdering them, too. is an excellent .prac
tice. Otherwise you may find yourself with a case of athlete’s foot.
In cutting your nails, trim them straight across and leave the cu
ticle strictly alone.
Finally, when your feet are once again in perfect condition, nev
er let a day pass without giving them this attention.

worker is, he will pause long
enough to enjoy a cinnamon snail

with other sustaining nutrients in
to agreeable wake-up food that
sticks to the ribs and keeps the
worker up to his job until lunch
time.
Fried pressed cereal is another
hearty “stick-to-the-ribs” breakfast
item. Pack cooked cereal into

MIND YOUR MANNERS
Test your knowledge of correct
social usage by answering the fol
lowing questions, then checking
against the authoritative answers
below:
1. If you pick up a neighbor
that you do not know in your car
should you introduce yourself?
2. If a man and woman fall
into conversation on a train, should
she let him pay for her dinner in
the diner?
3. When you recommend a movie
to a friend, should you summarize
the plot?
4. Should a person seated in a
theater rise to let others pass?
5. Should the person who makes
a telephone call be the one to
bring the conversation to a close?
What would you do if—
You, a mother, and your half
grown son are going to a movie—
(a) You pay for every thing?
(b) Before you start give him
enough money so that he can pay
the bus fare and buy the tickets
to the movie?
Answers
1. That would be the gracious
thing to do if the person were a
neighbor. Otherwise introducing
yourself to a stranger to whom
you give a lift isn’t necessary.
2. No.
3. No.
4. Yes.
5. Yes.

Meet Mrs. Undergraduate, She's Married
College Girl, War-Born Campus Phenomenon
By ROSELLEN CALLAHAN
NEW YORK.—“Who can give us
the solution to this problem?” the
college professor asked the class
of young girl unaergrads sitting
before him. Hands shot up in re
sponse, and, selecting one student,
the professor said “Suppose you
try, Mrs. Robertson.”
* * *
Mrs. Robertson? Yes, Mrs. And
not only she, but probably several
others in the class carried the
married prefix before their names.
They represent the newest phe
nomenon that war has brought to
America’s college campuses—the
married girl undergraduate.
She started popping up on col
lege rosters a year or so ago, and
her numbers have snowballed so
rapidly ever since that by next fall
it is expected that nearly one
quarter of the country’s college
girls will return to their alma
maters with wedding certificates
tucked in with their textbooks.
Before the war, many colleges
frowned on marriages in mid-term
and often prohibited married girls
from living in the dormitories and
sorority houses, but the bars are
down now. A Vassar spokesman
probably expressed general senti
ment when she said, ‘‘This college
is anxious to make it possible for
students who wish to marry to do
so and return to college to com
plete their courses.”
What kind of a girl is this new
Mrs. Undergrad? Well, she’s a
bit more serious than her unmar
ried sorority sisters. She’s a
touch more sophisticated in her
dress and ever so much more anxi
ous to double up her school-work
and get out to do her bit in the
workaday world’s home front. In
nearly every case, her husband is
a man in the armed services.
Marriage, rather than interfer
ing with her classroom progress,
in many cases causes her to ac
celerate her college life by extra
work and summer study so that
she may finish ahead of her class
and join her nusband, if he is still
in this country, or to get into gov
ernment work, war production or
social service. Often, Mrs. Under
grad is an honor student, a schol
arship winner and, in at least one
case, wears a Phi Beta Kappa key.
To prepare themselves for war
time service to the nation, many
married students elect courses in
map-making, radio code, personnel
administration, mechanical draw
ing, Russian and chemistry. Others
take home economics and mechan
ics, nutrition and child psyhology,
so that when their husbands ome
marching home they’ll be well
versed in managing a household.
And to keep their bodies strong,
minds alert and nerves calm in
these trying times, all concentrate
on physical fitness, through ath
letics and exercise.
And these married girls are cre
ating a new trend in college styles.
“They have e trimmer, more well
put-together look about them,”
faculty deans sigh in approval.
When they said “I do,” most of
them automatically said “Goodby’
to sloppy, baggy sweaters, grim
saddle shoes anklets and other
rah-rah trimmings of the fast-dis
appearing Betty Co-Ed.

And what they have, they take

they’ve learned to mend and press
their own clothes and hang them
