Fuzzy-Wuzzies Aid British in New Omdurman ‘Battle’
In the welding of the “life line %f the British empire,” Lord Horatio Kitchener’s famous victory at
Omdurman, Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, on September 2, 1898, over the fanatie dervish hordes of the Khalifa
stands as one of the most important military conquests in England’s history. Stemming from this triumph
was Great Britain’s complete mastery of Egypt. Now a British movie company is remaking history, filming
the battle with the aid of the Hadendowah tribe, known as the Fuzzy-Wuzzies, a name given them by Rudyard
Kipling. Left: Natives relaxing before a “battle.” Circle inset: Makeup men create dummy heads to be

dunes and the case was dismissed. Now a storm has swept the
banks, and shifting sands exposed the bones of Mrs. Tillett’s ancestors.
Attorneys have moved to reopen the case.

very little soap on gilt china.

whites beat easier when at room
temperature. Remove from re
frigerator and let stand a while
before whipping.

CLEAN GOVERNMENT
I 'ODAY the extermination of or-
^ ganized crime is gradually pro
gressing from city to city. Its sponsor*
are being exposed and driven from
power. The people have learned they
need no longer tolerate the furtive
alliance between the upper and the un

learned that clean government can also
be good politics.”—Thomas E. Dewey,
District Attorney of New York.

Weak in Prejudice
To be prejudiced is always to ba

CEVERAL gay sets like 1762, in-
^ eluding a fitted, broad-shoul
dered jacket, beret, gloves and
envelope bag, will make a simple
wardrobe look like a lot more!
It’s stunning with your day frocks
and white skirts. Easy to make.
Choose linen, gingham, pique or
sharkskin for this smart design,
which reproduces the style of ex
pensive ready-mades.
New Slenderizing Fashion.
Large women who want a soft,
pretty afternoon dress will find
1742 extremely becoming, and it’s
decidedly new and smart. The
paneled skirt, with a graceful cir
cular flare, is markedly hip-
diminishing. The bodice fits nice
ly over the bust because it’s gath
ered under the smooth shoulders.
Loose sleeves always look so pret
ty and feel so cool. In voile,
georgette or chiffon, this will be
your favorite for afternoon par
ties.

Can Human Ingenuity?
Abolish poverty and end at least
half the unhappiness in the world.
A nervously over-wrought man
may be entertaining, but you are
sorry he hasn’t more repose. After
all, people that “rest” you are the

Typical Americans think they

That’s what makes America
