Pro: Staff Writer) LONDON. Oct. (OP) -- A new state-trained British "army"

Its members call themselves "trained houseworkers" and their purpose is to help combat the after-war antipathy to domestic service.

Recruits spend six months at a Government training school, re- ceiving a salary of 195 (2.95) weekly. Instruction includes first aid and home nursing, how to get along with a family. how to shop and cook. do general do- mestic chores and be a handy-man on fuses and other household gad-

-"sis. BThe girls are also expected to be skilled in fine and heavy

laundry as well as hand and ma- chine sewing. At graduation. the lucky ones leave with a diploma for the National institute of i-louszvxorkcrs and prospective. 2:-nploycrs are told:

"You may employ our house-: workers only if you agree to our standards of wages and condi- .lons."

Thcse include a minimum of E2 is Gd. with 305 extra for living Jul, a 43-hour week. 1 1-2 days off a week and time off for all re- :ognized holidays. A two-weeks

homu now and look at the latent Paris fashions.

The fashion. latest creation: of very top daaignar Christian Dior. were taeievtud from London. six picked mannequins displayed 30 models from the Dior autumn and winter collection.

Diorb latest: look is .the "pedestal look"-featuring ll-inch waists. accentuated busts, bare shoulders. diamante-studded white tulle, and deep-red roses pinned to the waist.

Dior's idea this year is to place the modern woman right back on a pedestal.

Ballerina-length gowns, recent- ly believed to be on the way out. i were much to the fore in thisl collection. which also upheld thej natural shoulder line.

The straight-across neckline, featured throughout. was the one severe line in an ultra-feminine display. '

Large pockets-scme of the evening gowns showing slit pock- ets-nutria fur and floating pan- els were some of the details ef- fectively stressed. ,

Grey was the color emphasized for day wear. one qutstanding en-

. . . Is there such a creature as an electrical Tish? Yes, one of the best examples is the electric eel, a native of South America. A second species is a certain kind of catfish found along the eastern coast of the U. s. A. and Canada. The seat of the organs that produce the shock is along the underside of the tail. After a number of discharges. the current gets weak and a rest period must follow to store up new force. . The elephant fish is so named because it carries a. trunk- llke structure on its nose. This cur- ious fish is found in the South Pa- cific and around the Cape of Good Hope. Its flesh makes good eating.

Foot Aid

If one's work requires standing on the feel all day. thus making them sore and tired, try placing in the heel of the shoe a discarded powder puff. This will do much to lighten the shock of the foot's con- tact with the floor, acting as a sort of shock absorber.

Brass You can bring hack the bright- ness to dull brass by soaking in a pint of boiling water to which a. little rock ammonia has been add- ed. Then polish win a chamois.

Jar Tops

if the tops of fruit jars refuse to turn. set them upside down in hot water for a few minutes.

IT is advised that under a strange or critical state of affairs. which may appear to be devastat- ing or hopeless. it may be wise and greatly productive to forge ahead with confidence and com- posure. While the attack on un- usual circumstances may be ag- gressive and strenuous, at the same time the approach should be calm, restrained. not flustered. Although the temptation may be to resort to extremes, in the long

W5- livlng With Family

Couple In Paronta' Home Should Iallava Ac Guam

DEAR I188 DIX: I agree with all you any about it being the duty of parents when they go to live with their children to adjult themselves to their children's way of living. but what about the chil- dran adjusting themselves to thtir parcnta' way of living when they mrneyback to live with the old people. bringing their familiar with t em

and their faml in. We were glad to do' this. but we have felt that they might at least have made the return of trying to make things as easy for ua as they could. This they have not done. ,We are in the habit of going to bed early. but they come in at all hours of the night and disturb our rest. and if they happen to stay at home they turn on the radio and play it until they run us crazy. They bring their company in without even asking wheth- ,, er it is convenient or not. They tell us what to " do and what not to do. criticize the housekeeping and the food and our old-fashioned ways. and we are tired of it.' No one has the right to come into another's home and upset the peace and quiet and comfort of it. and this rule should work for young peo- ple as well as for old.

JUST TIRED

ANSWER: And I don't blame you. It is hard for young people to stand having their routine of life disturbed. but it is sheer torture for the old. The young have many sources of outside distraction and amusement, but all the pleasures of life are encompassed in their homes for the old. Our old houses. our old furniture. our accustom- ed ways of doing things. our peace and quiet make up the sum of our happiness. and we cannot hear it when vandals come in and wreck our quiet with noise and tumult and tear up all of our habits by their roots.

A FINE ART

The art of living in other people's houses is the finest art In the world and the one that is least practiced. Perhaps the reason for this is that few people possess enough sense of justice to accord every man and woman the right to run their own houses in their own way or enough intuition to perceive when they are making nuisances of them- selves or enough tact and adaptability to adopt the customs of the homo in which they are staying.

And this goes for people's children as well as for strangers. For the curious thing about children is that they never realize that their parents have any right to their homes or to their money or to spend their declining years in peace and quiet and the pursuit it happin:-ts in their own Way. Still less do they realize that when once they have gone from the home nest it is no longer their home. They come back as guests and should demean themselves as guests.

DEAR. DOROTHY DIX: I am very much in love with a young man who is devoted to me. but I am of the hustler type. I-Ie belongs to the easy-going. what's-the-use school of thought and I fear that if we marry we will be miserable. I think that if a boy really cares for a girl he will try to his utmost to make something of himself mid to make her a comfortable living. His argument is that if I love him I won't care for anything else nnd we will live happily ever nits.-tn ward. whether we have anything to live on or not. Am I narrow- minded, or am I right?

D. D. L.

ANSWER: You are absolutely right. No two people of as dif- ferent tcmperaments as you and your fiance should every marry. Can- geniality is the very bedrock of marital happiness.

Two people who have the same tastes and habits and -points of view. who have the same ambitions and aspirations. and who like to do the same things can make a go of marriage under any circum- stances. They 'can be happy working or playing. wastingitheir money or saving it. climbing up the ladder of success together or sitting con- tentediy at the bottom. but if one wants to save and the other to spend; if one is industrious and the other lazy: if one wants to stay -put and the other wants to go places. they are bound to quarrel be- cause their desires clash at every turn.

DEAR MISS DIX: Should it boy of 16. who is a fair driver and who can be trusted with a car. be allowed to use it? Is it better for such a boy to take a girl to (1 dance in the family car or in a taxi?

ANSWER: I think such a boy should be allowed to use lhc fam- ily car in reason to take his dates about, but not to monopolize It. I have seen so many fathers and mothers walking while Johnny was off joyriding with the Smith girl. Better let the boy take his girl to the party in a taxi. He won't be tempted to park if the meter is going round and round.
