First of all, I gét irritated no end at the things they demarid that every woman do in order to be at least half-way. acceptable to the rest of the world. Try doing all those things and you'll wear yourself to a frazzle in a month. Just one thing that apparently has to bé done without further de- lay is get a Mary Martin haircut. According to these magazines, vou aren't fit ‘o appear in public with any other hair-do: Constant harp- ing on this one thing by fashion experts isa pain in the neck. Never mind how your husband likes your hair fixed; never mind how you like it; run right out and get your Mary Martin haircut. Like fun I wilt. ‘The ats if these magazines are somethifig elsé again. Heré is a honey. A blurb for some actually ‘very ofdinary-looking lingerie. “You live in a silk satin world of lovelifiess .. . by always speak- ing the magnetic name, Fischer Lingerie.” Will, someone kindly tell nie what is Magnetic about thé fame Fischer? Ad ends on the I note: “At the Very Nicest Stores.” I don’t like Fischer’s gen- eral attitiide, magnetic or not. Here’s another one. The illus- tration shows a couple of normal- losking young peoplé with arms entwined, standing on a terrace with a lot of stars twinkling above. Thé young man is saying: “Tonight, ny dearest, we're close to the stars.” So far, so good. A perfectly normal and romantic thing for . young man to say who just placed an engagement ring on the proper finger of his the ad being a Jewelry one, emphasizing en- gagement and wedding rings. But Wait. The ad goés on like | this: “As he spoke she, too, felt far away ... dreaming of the day when a Palladium circlet would join the Palladium engagement ting he hed just placed on her finger.” My advice to any young man whose fiancee has thoughts like that at a time like that is to boot her in the . . . boot her right off the terrace, that is, and take his Palladium engagement ring right back and give it to some other al who never heard of Palla- dium. Thinking of the metal the ring is made of, indeed, in- stead of dreaming about the patter of baby feet, like any right-thinking young would do. Yes, Pve got to eschew those magazines, or I will be more bilior than I customarily am. TODAY’S BIRTHDAYS (Know America) James Melton, singer, born in Moultrie,Ga., 46 years ago.
