It is the responsibility of the

attempt to promote unity between
the Dean of Women's office and
the students, represented by the

house presidents take advantage
of the opportunity to get acquaint-
ed with each other and with the
members of the Dean's office.

With summer just about hitting
its stride, fashion magazines and
shops all over the country are fea-
turing fall styles to tempt the eyes
and pocketbooks of America's
women.
The lady-like look of natural
shoulder-lines, small waists and
curved hips and bosoms remains,
highlighted by a galaxy of excit-
ing and unusual colors and rich
fabrics.

joyed a revival last season, has
become oh - so - versatile, with
shades from cloud to near-black.
Reds, warm and heartening in
the coolness of ftumn are to be
used extensively. 'Lipstick, orange,

greens, luscious plum, and black-
brushed blues will be seen in sport
as well as dress clothes.

Stiff moires, and that darling

Fall Fabrics
As for fabrics, there will be
plenty of tweed for the college-
and-after set. Carrying out the
dictum of darker colors, many
tweeds will have black as a base,
often with flashes of tangerine,
pink or palest green to accent
th ir.
Three piece tweed suits have
toppers that pick up the dominant
color of the tweed in pocket flaps
and collars, or emphasize revers
and button-holes with the tweed
of the suit. Lots of lovely things
to look forward to this fall!
Housekeeper
Writes 'White
House Diary'
Tells of 13 Years!
With Roosevelts
WASHINGTON, July 21-(i)-
Henrietta Nesbitt says she could
always tell, when she was White'
House housekeeper for the Roose-
velts, when the war was building
to a new emergency.
The President would get choosy
about his food. Mrs. Nesbitt says
that in her 13 years in the White
House it was the only way in
which she saw the President show
tension.
Catering to Taste
Each morning Mrs. Roosevelt
would find out what her husband
wanted to eat that day and phone
Mrs. Nesbitt's office. Once Mrs.
Nesbitt heard the President ex-
claim: "Damn it, I don't want
beef." (It was the only time she
ever heard him swear.)
Then she heard Mrs. Roosevelt
ask gently:s"Whatado you want?"
"I want steak," he said.
Mrs. Nesbitt's story has been
published under the title "White
House Diary" (Doubleday).
Plain and Exotic
She writes that the President's
favorite pie was America's favor-
ite pie-apple. He preferred cho-
colate ice-cream. But he also
liked oddities: wild turkey, stone
crab, terrapin. Ie had definit e
ideas on their preparation. Once
the cook warned: "The President
likes a duck just chased through
the flame."
The President's favorite cake
was fruit, and Mrs.Roosevelt's vwas
angel food. They both liked a,
crabhmeat soup the recipe for
which was found among Mrs.
George Washington's record. The
President's breakfast tray always
included a dog biscuit for Falh.
Mrs. Nesbitt's story also in-
cludes amusing anecdotes of hap--
penings in the White House. 1
Too Many or Not Enough
Once there were so many guests
that Mrs. Roosevelt slept on a
couch in the hall and caught the
flu.
Once tea was ready for 300.
Mrs. Roosevelt waited. No one
came. The White House social
bureau had forgotten to mail the
invitations.
Mrs. Nesbitt writes that she has
learned that really big people nev-
er made demands. The British
king and queen asked for nothing
during their stay, but one of thhe
queen's maids put on a minor tanii-
trum.
For a clean-looking upsweep,
comb and brush every Lar into
place and groom the neckline
wisps upward with a touch of hair
cream.

Fussy Eaters
May Result if
Food Forced
Child Need Not
Eat All Food Given
Overzealous mothers may cause
their children to become fussy
eaters by attaching undue import-
ance to making certain the chil-
dren eat everything placed before
them.
"A well child has a good appe-
tite, but may become a fussy
eater if his mother forces food,,
makes eating a struggle, and
makes him think meals unpleas-
ant," an article in the August issue
of Good Housekeeping declares.
No Force
'A mother may think her child
will lose weight or become weak
or sick, so she considers it her
duty to make him eat, whether or'
not -he wants food. Perhaps, for-
getting the child's welfare, she
merely wants him to be as plump
as some friend's child.
"A healthy baby will let you
know when he's hungry. Feed him
only when he wants food; don't
force him to eat. You can give
him the right start toward good
food habits," the article advises.
Naittre Regulates
Nature is the best regulator of
how much nourishment a child
needs, according to this article.
"Respect the child's right to de-
termine Ilow much he needs.
Fruit, fruit juices, and plenty of
water between meals should be
available," the article continues.
"Never bribe, urge or force. If
you can't control your anxiety
someone else should serve the
meals."
If there's anything more tired
than a tired make-up it's the girl
who owns one, Charm magazine
declares. A refreshing re-do starts
with a cleanser that whisks from
the skin every tenacious particle
of make-up.
