prescribed for mailmen’s uniforms.
Their spokesman said the cot-

kept as neat—creases don’t hold

wool was needed for uniforms of
the nation’s fighting men.

For everyday wear the simple
shirtwaister is ideal—especially on
larger figures! Pattern 4952 by
Anne Adams is the ideal design
because the front buttoning is both
practical and slimming too, and ths
prettily scalloped collar and cuffs
add a touch of femininity. Note
how the optional pockets are scal-
loped to match. For figure flattery
try a “vitamin print” wtih colar
and cuffs of gay contrast.
Pattern 4952 is available in
