Expert Promises
Continued Quality
In War Cosmetics
'With saving demanded for ev
ery non-essential thing nowadays,
coeds are wondering about cos
metics, and according to Bernice
Peck, cosmetic expert, they need
not.
Although they won't be as plen
tiful, Miss Peck reassures users
that cosmetics will be just as good,
if not better, than before, and
that it is not at all unpatriotic to
go on buying things that make
one pretty, cheerful, and self-con
fident.
The ten per cent luxury tax
goes directly to the government
war fund, and as long as this is
paid, coeds should feel free to' buy
any of these commodities.
Science goes marching on, war
times or not, and every day, al
though ingredients of perfumes
and powders are changed, their
odors lend more beauty. Shortages
have produced new tricks in
make-up, according to Miss Peck.
Nylons have come to take first
place in the minds of their wear
ers. However, scientists show
that they are merely a chanced
upon combination of air, gas, coal,
and water.
Following wartime suggestions,
making one thing do the work of
two, coeds find that hand lotion,
besides making for many a smooth
hand shake, will erase bumps on
the arms, prevent skin infection,
and take away chapped spaces.
Putting small portions of eau
de cologne on hair roots or around
the face on those decorative curls,
is
_a new and "magnifi-scent"
idea. Soaps should be used in
drawers as wartime sachets.
Miss Peck states, that by sal
vaging the salvage, one should not
do without, but should make a
little go a long way. She sug
gests that bottles, jars, and even
lipstick cases .may, in the near fu
ture, be demanded for refills. Let

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
VI le, ....7he Women
A Date For Defettse
Fights For Freedom
It has been encouraging to see
the rush of students to buy de
fense stamp corsages for Soph
Hop even before President Roose
velt said he would like to see wo
men wearing them today.
But the corsages being worn to
day have all been bought by men
students, and it has been ever
more encouraging to watch the
Mortar Board sales of defense
stamps grow. Most.boeds are not
oversupplied with money, and to
see women students putting part of
their allowance. into national de
fense, without it being a part of
some recreational activity like
Soph Hop, is a pleasant sight to
us.
Women on campus have a
chance to help national defense in
many ways. Here are three: get
a defense corsage before you gb to
Soph Hop, even if you have to
put stamps on a corsage of real
flowers; put your dimes toward
defense when Mortar Board mem
bers come around with defense
stamps; help keep some student in
school by getting a date now for
Draftee Drag on July 17.
Women will find the Latin-Am
erican textiles and artcrafts in
Room 3, Carnegie ,Hall, well
worth a' visit, espe.cially from
home ec majors. The brightly
colored exhibit will be gone after
today.

Board To List Activities
In an attempt to equalize coed
activity points, WSGA Junior
Service Board will contact any co
eds without points and display a
list of campus• activities which
are suitable to their individual in
terests, it was decided at a meet
ing of the board yesterday.
Face powder should be' gently
rubbed on instead of patting it on
the face, during which process
much is wasted through sifting.
Women Fight
For Rights
Women have come a long way
since the time they first 'fought
for equal suffrage, according to
statistics revealed in United States
Women's Bureau Bulletin.
With more and more women
going into war industries, great
er interest is being shown in wo
men's trade unions and in the his
tory of women who started out
working for legislation, and econ
omic and political improvement.
In 1939 about 173,000, or prac
tically one-fifth of all the workers
in the Federal service were. wo
men. Clerical occupations, such
as •typist, stenographer, or sta
tistical cleric, were in the major
ity. Next to stenographers
nurses account for more women
in the Government service than
any other 'occupation.
Specialized knowledge or ex
perience, such as that of statisti
cians, accountants, librarians,
economists, social welfare work
ers, teachers, writers or editors,
research workers in many fields,
scientists, and laboratory techni
cians, is demanded for women's
work.
In proportion to size of income,
single women seem to carry as
heavy financial responsibilities
for dependents as do- married wo
men.
According to "The Women
Graduates of a Collegiate School
of Business," the attitude toward
women .in business positions is
summarized as "this is not a man
made World, but a - mis-made
world, and the fault is not entirely
that of men. Women themselves
have carried the spirit of service
almost to the point• of subserv
iency."
-B. IVi. W
The old idea that the business
woman is "a bundle of nerves"
can be' abolished by training. and
adequate preparation, followed by
hard work and alertness, as stated
in this pamphlet.
