Mademoiselle Spoul
Contest For Womei
Fads and
Fashions
by Mary Murray
Let's face it. Spring has
sprung. These skirts and sweaters
must make way for fresh cottons
and open-toes sandels. What's
new in the fashion parade? Let's
take a look.
Your Easter bonnet can be one
of many styles. The most popular
with hat designers is the sailor.
Varying from this spring's major
color theme, black and white, in a
striped straw to dainty pink,
flower-covered affairs, the sailor
will complement any outfit. And it
does wonderful things for your
profile, too.
If you're choosing a dress for
the Easter parade, make it a
sheath dress. Straight and narrow,
the sheath dress lends itself well
to the match-box jacket, so popu
lar this season.
If you prefer a full skirt, silk
shantung is the answer. Its soft,
glowing finish combined with its
touch of stiffness make shantung
the fabric for gathers or pleats.
In shoes, patent leather leads
the list, again as a part of the
major theme of black plus white.
Calling a close second are the red
shoes. Red is a new neutral to be
used with almost every color.
Gloves can be found to. match
or blend with any costume.
Striped gloves are still popular,
and come in nylon as well as
cotton.
Catering to every taste and
fashion whim, jewelry designers
have come up with a multiplicity
of ideas. Varying from chalk
white, through painted pastels, red,

I gave a pint of blood Monday.
I had already given once before.
That was back in November, the
other time the blood people came
to the campus. Actually it was
pretty much fun.
It was just before noon and I
had just gotten out of political
science 21 when I saw Anne
Bracket. Anne is the Caffeine and
Nicotine queen of Florence and
possible the whole state. Possibly
the whole nation or even wvorld as
far as that goes. Anyway I had
gone through the line back in
November sitting next to Anne
and listening to her. I might 'point
out that anyone not deaf that sits
next to Anne Brackett when she
isn't gagged or coughing automat
ically listens to her. Anyway as
I was saying, I saw Anne and
some girl named Lib or Liz. Lib
or Liz was of the more silent and
demure type (that means she didn't
seem to want to talk-with me
anyway). Anyway we went over
to the Naval Armory and the first
little old lady we see there Is at
the registration desk. The place is
overun with "little, old ladies."
Sh tcsa piece of paper in front
of you and says, "Sign your name
and your parent's name." You
sign and move over to one of the
younger women, probably in her
mid-thirties. She weighs you, takes
your temperature, and feels your
pulse. Then she writes it on the
proper space on a card especially
designed for the purpose. The
same card was used in November
*and I find that I've gained seven
pounds, lost one degree in tem
perature, and my pulse is two liess.
All this time Anne is jabbering
away. In November she told me
that she wanted to be a mortician
but would have had to wait for
four years before she could get
in a mortician's school. They don't
believe in women sufferage. The
next person is a man. He takes
your blood pressure and rattles
off a couple of dozen or so diseases
that you say you haven't had and
asks other questions such as,
"Have you recently been in con
tact with a person that has yellow
jaundice?" Those you also answer
In the negative.
Finally you think you're getting
down to business unless you've
given before and know better. A
younger nurse 'smiles and asks
your name. You start to answer
and she jabs a little pointed some
thingr in your finger to draw
