Want A Locomotive?
Minneapolis, Minn. (UP) — The word "locomotive" is taboo in one Minneapolis household.
A toy engine on a youthful family member's train was broken beyond repair. It was impossible to replace it so the family inserted a want asking for a "standard gauge locomotive, any condition."
motive, any contention. Among other answers to the ad was one from a Wisconsin man who had a 60-ton locomotive.
and a 60-ton locomotive. Others included two junked train engines and two "small" 3,000-pound locomotives.
Man Shops For Wife's Corset; Makes Page One
Indianapolis, (UP) — Scott Hargis had a hard time convincing his wife "there was nothing to it."
Hargis went into a department store shopping for a corset for his wife. Just as he was measuring it, a photographer's flash bulb exploded.
The picture made page one, of course.
Blind Children Gain Poise By Skating
St. Louis, (UP)—The children were out there on the floor of the brilliantly lighted gymnasium, trying to cut figures and laughing just like any other happy group of youngsters on skates.
But these kids were blind
Supt. Robert H. Thompson of the Missouri School for the Blind said they were doing all right, too. Besides having a lot of fun, he explained, they were learning poise and confidence, mostly confidence.
"I don't know how they do it, and they can't tell you themselves," Mr. Thompson said. "But I think they have fewer spills and collisions out there on the floor than any normal bunch of kids would have."
Roller skating has been part of the school's curriculum for a number of years. Mr. Thompson said, and the kids would rather skate than eat.
"The blind develop physically only through exercise," he pointed out. "A sighted person learns by imitation of the things he sees, but the blind can't do that. Every grace they have is developed by their own efforts."
Fiber-wheeled skates are a must for use of the blind. "A rubber-tired job would just mean disaster for one of our kids," Mr. Thompson said. "Too silent. The skaters know the proximity of an obstruction mostly through sound and the rubber stops that as well as other vibration."
"The kids are wild about skating," he said, "but I don't think I'll ever get used to it. After about five minutes of watching them I break out in a cold sweat and start biting my nails. That's when I leave."
Find Pre-war Cigars
Luverne, Minn. (UF)—Workmen found several boxes of cigars in the old Central Hotel building when it was razed. After smoking them they agreed they were "better than many we smoked during the war." They had been hidden for several years and were believed to be part of a burglar's cache.
More Than One Way
Chicago. (UP)—Firemen fighting a small apartment house fire found a snowbound automobile in front of a fire plug. They couldn't get the hose around the car and they couldn't move the car. So they broke the front windows with a pike and ran the hose through the car.

It Takes Candor To Be Well Dressed
'Women Aren't Honest About Buying Clothes'
Hollywood. (UP)—Legs, thin and thick, shaped and shapeless, should be camouflaged, declares Jane Greer, one of the few movie stars who will admit nature didn't leave her flawless.
less.
"My legs are thin," she admitted.
"But I hope you can't tell. I wear short skirts, and tight ones, and light-colored stockings. They make my legs look bigger and better.
"Obviously, a girl with piano legs should do just the opposite. Long skirts, with a flare. And dark shades in stockings."
Jane learned about legs, and a lot of other clothes tricks, during the six years she spent studying dress design at the National Art school of Washington, D.C.
Not enough women study the sort of clothes they should wear, she believes. And when they go shopping they're not honest about it.
"I think that's particularly true of overweight women," she said. "They fool themselves—promise to diet, but never do. Just fall for the next chocolate nut sundae. But they think about how slender they are going to be and they buy clothes to
And those tight clothes, she sighed,
actually make them look heavier
than ever.
advice.
"Clothes that are too old or too young only accent the thing you want to avoid—extreme youth or old age."
F. B. Kirk, girl, Jane advises
It takes candor, and lots of it, to be well-dressed, Jane said. Don't be afraid to dress your age, is her advice.
For hippy girls, Jane advises shoulder pads to balance the figure. For thin ones, she says never wear a skirt on a bathing suit.
"Just stick to tights," she advises. "The boys will look longer—and oftener."
And to tall girls she says steer clear of low heels. It's a matter of psychology.
"When boys see a tall girl in flats, they think, gosh, she's tall even without heels." But if she goes in for three-inchers, people think. It's those high heels she wears that make her look tall."
