HEART AND HOME: Women may be inclined to feel fatigue and anxiety in the morning, but later in the day wlil be active in public aflairs and private hospitalities. Girls are warned that decepuon’ may be prevalent while this sway prevails. and they .will be wise “in distinguishing between flirtation and serious wooing.

BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Forfunes will accumulate among holders of | Government contracts who now will Teap large profits on their prelim- inary work. Spending will be gen- eral, although there will be no os- tentation to arouse public disap- proval. Spacious homes and estates of long-established millionaires will be taken over by the Govern- | ment or donated for public use as old ways of luxurious living vanish in the tides of war. Prosperity will continue for many who once lacked comforts, while taxes will reduce the possessions of former holders of large iortunes. Thus will be lev- eled all classes who formerly. were divided by dollar signs. This means that democracy is to be more fully realized, the seers declare.
