Once more the governor made his
plea for Texans to “get religion.”
He has devoted most of his last three
broadcasts to this subject. “No mat-
ter how good you may be as a non-
church member, you can be better
by joining a church,” he declared. He
cited his own life as testimony to the
happiness and prosperity which fol-

Washington, May 7.—Woman’s in-
sistence upon something new and dif-
ferent in hats was held partially ac-
countable Sunday for depressed con-
ditions in the milinery business.
The women’s bureau of the Labor
Department, seeking an answer to
why the industry lagged behind while
other businesses showed gains in 1935
and 1936, concluded that manufac-
turers’ fears that a new mode might
not take hold had resulted in hand-
to-mouth buying of materials and
use of hand methods and light ma-
chinery.
Accordingly, the bureau suggested
that millinery manufacturers attempt
to assess style trends far enough in
advance to permit economic planning
of each season’s output. It also pro-
posed that the hatmakers invite se-
rious-minded women with a quick-
ened artistic sense to assist them
in appraising seasonal style sug-
gestions before they are offered to
retailers.
The bureau found that profits were
as low as 3c a hat on some cheaper
grades.

“Adam and. Fallen Man” was the
subject of the lesson-sermon which
was read in all Churches of Christ,
Scientists, on Sunday, May 7.
The golden text was: “As in Adam
all die, even so in Christ shall all
be made alive.” (1 Cor. 15:22).
Among the citations which com-
prised the lesson-sermon is the fol-
lowing from the Bible: “For ever, O
Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.
Through thy precepts 1 get under-
standing: therefore I hate evfery
false way.” (Psalms 119:89,194).
The lesson-sermon also included the
following passage from the Christian
Science textbook, “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures”: “Man
is the family name for ideas, the
sons and daughters of God. All that
God imparts moves n accord with
Him, reflecting goodness and pow-
er.” (page 515).
We’ve spent many an hour in our textile laboratory investigating
the wearing qualities of many well-known brands of hosiery, to find out
>■ what you can do to make your stockings wear longer. “Wear sounds,**
large groups of active girl/ and women, nave helped us verify our labora-
tory findings on stockings in actual use. Here are the several things we’ve
learned which will help you lengthen the life of your stockings.
First, buy a good brand of hosiery. Before buying, plan your hosiery
wardrobe carefully, and buy the correct weight of stocking for the occa-
sion for which you will use it. You’ll find the following weights suitable: |
1 and 2-thread for evening wear -
,3-thread for afternoon or informal wear
4-thread for street or business
7-thread for service and sportswear
10-thread for extra service
Of course, the very sheer stockings do not wear as well as the f
heavier ones. But then you will want to wear them on occasion for their
beauty alone.
Buy at least 2 pairs of the same color at the same time. If one of
each pair wears out, you will still have a whole pair left. Sometimes
there is a price saving when 3 pairs are bought.
Be sure the linings of your shoes are smooth to prevent unneces-
sary wear. Rough eyelets or sharp-edged buckles may
also cause snags and runs.
Put your stockings on properly. The best way is
to first roll the leg of the stocking down and slip the
foot through the roll into the toe. Then straighten the
foot seam, and slowly unroll the stocking, smoothing
it up over the leg with the finger tips and straighten-
ing the leg scam at the same time.
Don’t wear garters after they have lost their
elasticity. They snould have plenty of stretch. The
garter should always be clasped half-way down the
welt or reinforced part of the stocking, never in the
sheer part below the welt. Fasten garters while still
seated in order to allow for knee action. >
It is important, too, to buy the correct size and
length of stocking. The size stocking to buy is the
Tom the back of the heel to the end
of the toe, measured along, the side of the foot.
The approximate length of stockings you require is from the point
where you fasten your garters to the bottom of the heel, measured at
the side. Variations in size of ankle, calf and top measurements make
some difference in length requirements. The standard lengths for hosiery
are 28 inches (short) 30 inches (average) and 32-33 inches (extra long).
Avoid contact with sharp or rough objects, such as rough finger
or toe nails, hard callouses or corns, settings of rings, slivers of wood
and rough places on chairs, and particularly desks, if you are an office
worker. Short bristly hair on the legs may also injure the delicate silk
thread in sheer stockings. Keep your toe nails smoothly pedicured. If
you have dry skin on feet or legs, use a skin lotion on it as regularly as
you do on your hands. If you are careful, many ot the snags, pulled
threads and runs which happen so quickly and are so disastrous, can be
avoided.

SALES-NATURAL
RESOURCE PLAN
" i
Austin, May 7.—Gov. W. Lee O'Dan-
iel broke a two-week silence on old
age pension*; today, telling his Sun-
day radio audience he believed the
sales-natural resource tax constitu-
tional amendment Would be passed by
the houke this week.
He linked fyis reference to pensions
' with announcement , of mother’s day
program to be broadcast from the
hall of the house of representatives
next Sunday.
Speaking from the mansion before
a mixed audience that overflowed
i to the porch, the governor urged
the legislature to pass the resolution
this week that “Texas mothers will
have some meat and potatoes instead
of just a song dedicated to them—
that mothers of Texas may have 365
mothers days each year instead of
one.”
“I told you three weeks ago that I
believed the passage of this SJR
No. 12 (senate join resolution) offered
the only hope that was left of rais-
ing the money to pay olcLkge\ pen-
sions and provide for the dtneKsocial ’
security services and I want to tell
you today that I am now certain that
this is the only way we are going to
get this job done,” he said.
The governor said he had “full
confidence” the house would pass the
resolution before the week ends “be-
I cause our cause is just”
I O’Daniel asserted only nine votes
I more were- needed to adopt the re-
I solution (last week’s announced vote
I of engrossment of the proposal was
I announced as 86 to 59 while the gov-
ernor gave it as 91 to S7), *‘I do not
believe that this legislature will ad-
journ and leave the old people ...
with nothing but hot checks and un-
fulfilled promises,” he asserted.
