At the present time there are 4 coeds working for their room an board. Most of these live in facult; homes near campus, and have room equipped with desks and other con veniences for studying. They are no only earning the "lion's share" o their college expenses, but are helpin to ease the critical housing shortage Booklet Explains Work "Underwriting Your Own Educa tion," published by the University, ex plains the details of this, type of wor and may be obtained at the Offic of the Dean of Women. Each woman spends 45 minutes pe day doing housework for her room and an additional 45 minutes for each meal. If all meals are eaten at the home a total of 21 hours per week is re- quired. The greatest demand for household assistants comes fro homes with children, and several eve- nings a week are spent at home by arrangement with the housewife. Services in the home may include dishwashing, cooking, and vacuum- ing, and there is usually a cooperative working arrangement between the housewife and student. The work is often not as strenuous as an outside job, and there is no time wasted going to or from work. Suomynona Aid One possible disadvantage of living in a private home is that the student may miss some social activities, unless she makes a special effort to make friends in her classes. Suomynona was organized for the purpose of pro- viding an opportnuity for women liv- ing in private homes to meet each other, and it is urged that coeds working for room and board take ad- vantage of its services. . The success of this cooperative working arrangement depends upon the personal adjustments between the student and household. Such details as the use of the telephone, enter- taining callers, laundry privileges, work schedule, and closing hours should be discussed in advance. This type of work is familiar to women who have helped with house- work at home, and especially to those who have younger brothers and sis- ters. A strong attachment is often formed between the student and fam-. ily, and many coeds live in the same home for the entire four years.

Deadline Is Se For Collection Of Gift Boxes d Four more shopping days remai - for campus "groups to send gifts t r soldiers confined to Percy Jones hos o pital. f Every women's residence is respon - sible for donating one or more boxes All Christmas boxes are due not late: 1 than 5 p.m. Monday in the Socia d Director's office of the League. y Quality of gifts and not quantity s should be considered in choosing Christmas gifts for the patients. t Veterans at Percy Jones indicated f in a poll that they prefer one sub- g stantial gift such as a billfold, key case or leather belt rather than a number of smaller items. Pens, pen- - cils, toilet kits, knives, watch straps, box cameras and bed lamps are k other gifts that the men would like e to receive. All of these gift suggestions are in r a three to four dollar price bracket , The minimum cost of each box ha been set at two dollars and none of the gifts should amount to more than four or five dollars. It is important that the contents of r each box be marked on the outside to prevent such accidents as giving a watch strap to a veteran without an arm. If the contents are not in- dicated the package will have to be opened and re-wrapped. eIn choosing and wrapping gifts. -donors should take the same care that they would in sending a Christmas gift to a relative or friend. Boxes wrapped in bright paper and ribbons add Christmas spirit to the gift in- side. A personal touch may be added to the presentation by enclosing a greet- ing card with the signatures and ad- dresses of the donors.

" Clothing Is Received By Christmas approximately 25,- 000,000 men, women, and children in the liberated countries overseas will have received clothing donated in the United National Clothing Collec- tion of last spring. College students played a noteworthy part in this col- lection. Henry J. Kaiser, who was re- quested by President Truman to head this collection, asks that students aid these victims of the Second World War by supporting the Victory Cloth- ing Collection. National Goal Set The national goal is one hundred million serviceable, used garments, in addition to shoes and bedding. Clothes for men, women, and chil- dren of all ages and sizes can be used. Dresses, underwear. suits, shawls, work shirts, sweaters, blankets, quilts, mufflers, and caps are needed. Shoes, boots, galoshes, rubbers, mittens, and gloves will also be collected. 'lore Fashions For Christmas Feature Colors, Appliques, Cuffs :' . J t :. :i: : , , .: .. is :: T: "i. ". . .. By JEAN WHITNEY WITH Christmas only days away, frenzied coed, buried deep be- neath mid-semesters and "guizes" begins to get panicky as she realizes that she has yet to do her Christmas shopping. A good solution to the query of "What shall I get her for Christ- mas?" will be gloves, which is some- thing every woman can always use. Gloves ranging from long white French kid to everyday pigskins are available. Creamy smooth handsewn kid, the perfect complement to a calfskin or alligator bag, are very ladylike and come in brown and black. lace leath- er in jet black is sleek and suave looking. Also seen is a soft capeskin glove, long enough to be worn wrin- kled at the wrist. DOESKIN is another type of leath- er glove which is very attractive. These may be had in a variety of styles, including a short glove with dog-eared cuff. This clever feature shows a double color scheme of black with white or fuschia, blue with pink, or chartreuse with fuschia. It also comes in plain black. Designers now are creating gloves with a dressmaker look that har- monizes with dress fashions. Many of these have unusual cuffs that can be worn over suit and dress sleeves. Dashing gauntlets have this type of cuff. They are copied from hunting and riding gloves of members of the French courts and boast of a scroll pattern on the cuffs. EMBROIDERED gloves of fine kid or suede easily double for after- noon or evening wear. Fagoting, corde embroidery, leather lacing, and contrasting applique motifs are a few of the details which make for unusually feminine gloves. Single corded shirring up the back of the glove or diamond shape cut-outs in the cuff are attractive novelty styles. These are available in street shades, neutrals, and a few bright colors. Long rayon jersey evening gloves come in an array of colors ranging from soft pastel shades to practical black or white. A variation of this style is a long rayon jersey glove with hand-painted flowers which serve to dress up an otherwise simple outfit. LOOKING FOR A CHRISTMAS GIFT? . . .
