Some have unpressed pleats; others have a flounce, a rather deep one, to give them more fullness; and still others are elaborately draped. There is little change in skirt length from spring fashions. The approved length remains at 12 inches from the floor. Even the tailored types of dresses show a gentle flare or a suggestion of fullness. Its only in the suits that you have what can be called a really slim skirt line.

These are not THE GARDEN SPOT cause, as she says, she has always hated being imposed upon, and she wants things understood. Barry, her young man, appears to be casual and cheerful about these matters, and assures her that with his good steady salary, prospect of promotion, with his comfortable house free of encumber-ance- s and with the small but sure income both he and Eva derive from wartime investments, "everything will be fine. Barrys motherless small daughter, Meg., will live with them, but her school and clothing expenses are paid by her mothers mother. "I made out a budget, says Evas letter. "Barry laughs at this, but I have been a financial manager of a small sanitarium for some years and know how to handle such affairs. My idea is that just so much shall be allocated to table, telephone, cleaner and so on; just so much go to Barry for taxes, car maintenance, lunches, club and so on, and the residue be divided on an equal basis. Unless a wife is to be an unpaid servant, as my mother was for 25 years, she surely has a right to her share. Knowing your opinion of the importance of a money agreement in marriage I want to ask you two questions. What, out of an income of about $600 a month, should be my share, and should I ask Barry to put our agreement into writing? Serious Question Eva, I say in reply, you are quite right in quoting me as saying that the money question is a most serious one, in marriage, and that if it is settled to the satisfaction of both parties, other problems are apt to fall into line. What's Home Without a Lawn? .By Eldred E. a-- the house has been in use for generations, I remember hearing it in my childhood. But it doesnt apply now. Now, with the modern science doing all it can in heating, cooking, lighting, canning, washing, a woman moves with great ease among miraculously efficient machines. In a sense she is a servant in the house. But not unpaid. She is the woman in the most richly-pai- d world; she is paid in love and gratitude. She is paid whenever she sees the children bright and good at the supper table, or when a tired man comes home to what to him is the loveliest spot in the world. Solitary lives know nothing of the ecstasy of richness, but the honest wife and mother knows. Certainly she wants to feel sure of her husbands understanding of her household and her personal needs. But Eva will make a fatal mistake if she starts into matrimony holding firmly, in her newly-ringe- d hand, that signed document that gives her just so much legal tender every month. In California, we recently had a case in which the brides father insisted upon full divorce settlements, signed, sealed and delivered. The groom was criticized because he treated the whole matter as a sort of joke, but granting that he wanted to marry the girl under these extraordinary circumstances, I dont know what else he could have done. If he had been a wiser and older man he would have withdrawn from the marriage. d Eva, if you insist upon this document as a preliminary to putting your hand in Barrys then I suggest that Barry look into divorce idea this and perhaps have another document in his own hand. iron-boun- Guided Bomb Green. top .and rye grass are the ones chiefly used. Stae laws require the analysis of grass seed to be printed on the package. The greater the percentage of Kentucky Blue, Canada Blue or Chewings Fescue the better the seed. Cheap mixtures will have less of these desirable grasses and more of the less expensive. Lawns are composed of plants and need the same care that you would give to plants in the garden. Weeds must be kept out. This is easy now with the new kinds of sprays con taming 2 4D that kills weeds but does not bother grass. Use these exactly as directed. Plant food will be needed. This is best given in the same way that you feed your garden. Use a good balanced fertilizer. Chemicals containing only one ele ment may stimulate the grass but the growth will not be balanced and the plant may suffer later. Cutting the lawn is not a hard task. Set the mower so that an inch and a half of grass is left. The clip' pings should be left to fall on the ground. Keep the mower sharp and well oiled. A light cutting every week or two is far better than a heavy cutting once In a great while. Occasionally grass will become too long and then the clippings should be removed if they are matting and causing a smothering of the grass. Robing may be necessary if your soil Is subjected to thawing and freezing in the spring. The roller should be heavy enough to press the surface of the soil smooth without packi. g it down. Generally the steel water-weigones are more easily adapted to the soil conditions. The rolling pushes the grass back into contact with the soil so that the roots can take hold. Frost action loosens tlie plants from the soil. Good lawns are necessary. Roll ing, fertilizing and cutting are little e trouble. Weeds gone with spray. Select the right grass and you will Live a good lawn with little ized on top. Fertilizer and humus Bhould be added if the soil is clay or sandy. The grass should be sown evenly and the surface kept moist until the plants are well started. Grass grows only in cool weather, so the lawn should be taken care of early. Use seed that is good for your situation. Kentucky Blue grass is the best over most of the country and under most conditions. How it will not grow in heavy ever, shade. Here some other grass is necessary, such as Canada Blue grass or Chewings Fescue.

No wonder it amuses Barry, who has already had some experiences of the way domestic expenses go. Your staid, maidenly budget will h be blown when the guestroom bathroom overflows onto the dining-rooceiling; when the den tists bill comes in just double your expectations; when your brother Tom needs another loan; when your slips on the cake of soap Meg didnt pick up and sues you for $600; when your mother is taken suddenly ill and you have to fly to Santa Barbara. Have All Advantages You are a responsible person; Barry is successful, industrious, thrifty, reliable. What more do you want. Certainly not budgets, before you are even married, and a bom bardment of such words as allocation, residue and basis. Barry wants confidence from you, and unless you feel an affectionate trust in him, dont marry him at all. With the assets you mention, you are having much more than an average start, and your difficulty, as I see it, is going to be the loosening of all your hits, bud gets, restrictions, rather than the tightening of your rules for Bar ry's improvement.

The chief of the air materiel command has predicted that the air force would have ready for operational use within a year a 12,000 pound bomb that can be guided all the way to the target. T. McNarney, head , Gen. Joseph of the air materiel command, also said: 1. United States aircraft engineers and manufacturers have the know how to produce faster than sound combat planes now. But he said the air force planned to wait until at least three more expert mental models similar to the supersonic X-- l rocket plane had been tested. The being built now, is deto 1,700 miles an hour. fly signed Sound speed at sea level is about 760 miles an hour. The X-- l has been flown many times at speeds "several hundred miles an hour faster than sound. 2. The conventional machine guns on fighter planes will be replaced time within a "relatively short with rocket missiles having a built-i- n radar homing device. This device will guide the missiles to an enemy bomber regardless of its evasive action. These rockets, McNarney said, will be launched several miles from an enemy bomber, will track it down rt supersonic speed and ex plode within lethal range by means of a proximity fuse. 3. American research engineers have made "great progress re' cently toward development of de' vices to guide missiles with speeds up to 700 miles an hour and ranges of 5,000 miles.

Whitman Building A Basement Room Question: We have a project in mind and I am able to do the work myself if I have a little help. We want to dig otit a basement under the kitchen; we have two rooms under the house already. Have you any leaflets on tiling out the drain, and footings for concrete blocks? After the basement room is completed, we plan on a kitchen sink and cupboards. Have you any leaflets on plumbing for a kitchen? Answer: Those are all rather large subjects, and I do not have any leaflets to cover them. If there is a good public library in your town, you should find handbooks on plumbing and piping on file.
