The figure control- ling measurements are bust, waist, abdomen and hips. The waist is rightly proportioned at 8 to 9 inches less than the bust circumference. The abdomen should have only a slight curve. Ideally, the abdomen should measure from one-half to two and a half inches smaller than the bust. The hip: measurement will vary with body type. Ultra- streamlined hips measure the same as the bust. Hips that measure 3 to 4 inches larger than the bust are termed full. You may be one of the for- tunate women who have better than average proportions. You will want to know if the body measurements used as the basis for the Scientific Sizing System, as worked out by the U.S. de- partment of commerce, repre- sent averages or ideal body pro- portions. When asked this pert- inent question, Mansfield Lonie, director of this project, said, "They are not ideal, but they are a little better than aver- age." If clothes were designed strictly on averages, you would not like them. No woman wants the square look. By emphasiz- ing the height factor, manufac- turers of women's clothes are able to do: the best possible fashion job for all women in c every size category. The waist is the crucial meas- urement. If you cannot squeeze into the dress at the waist, you are forced into the next larger size. The ryp here is that the next size is not intended for a woman as short as-you. And so the half - sizes were created. Half sizes are proportioned wider at the waist and abdo- men. On the inch score, here's the difference: Size 14: waist 27, abdomen 34%. Size 14%; waist 2914, abdomen 3614. COULD REDUCE SIZE With 15 pounds less weight and 2 inches off the middle measurement, the 14% could Slip into a 14-short. Another question bound to arise is what about the impos- sibly small sizes, 3 5, and 7 in the junior range and 4 to 6 in misses' sizes. Are women get- ting smaller? This is an illusion created by the manufacturer's manipulation. In order to cater to milady's vanity, somé manu- facturers have reduced the number of pounds and inches between sizes. That is, they have lessened the size to size interval difference. Only the size designation is smaller, ac- tually the dresses are not smaller, If you are healthy, normal weight for your body build, and a honey of a figure... and more bounce to the ounce!

At-Home Jobs Are Available By ROBERTA ROESCH "Since I'm very much in fa- vor of working housewives," writes a- woman from Ohio, "I'm always interested in ed columns you write about housewives who do something! "I myself would like to be one of them. But fight now I can't out to work since I'm my first baby. NEEDS TO EARN "I do need to earn some money, somehow, though. And I'll have to do something after the baby comes. I'm wondering if you can give me some ideas Sion what a woman can do at home when she can't go out to work." : Since this question arrives in he mail just about every day, j\here are more suggestions on how to make money at home. Women I've known have done all these things and cashed some checks from their work, so if you want to earn money, too, here's the right approach. 1. Pick out from the list of ervices suggested in this col- umn--or from other services that occur to you--a something you know you can do well. 2. Investigate thoroughly whether your area needs that ervice and whether people will ||pay to have you do it for them. ADVERTISE SERVICE 3. If you find a need, start filling it by advertising your at- home service through word of mouth, local newspapers, church and community organ- izations and bulletin boards. 4. Consider any of the follow- ing things, depending on your talent. If business skills are your strongest forte, offer such serv- ices as bookkeeping, typing, stenography, billing, stenciling, ing and telephone selling and opinion-surveying. On the other hand, if you're handy with a. needle and can sew, knit, or crochet, think se- riously about making money from dressmaking; clothing al- terations; mending; darning; doll-dressing; knitting or cro- cheting sweaters; accessories or household items (such as crocheted bedspreads or table- cloths); or making slipcovers, curtains and draperies. If you enjoy crafts and work- ing with your hands, consider learning how to do such things as caning chairs, refinishing furniture, making hooked or braided rugs, or creating cus- tom-made lamp shades. Tinting pictures for photographers is another skill you might learn. COOKING SPECIALTIES Possibly you are talented in preparing food.

ANN LANDERS Mother of Five Dear Ann Landers: Before I married Lena she was a real go-getter, full of pep, held down! two jobs, and could pitch horse- shoes around the lot of us on Sunday. I was real proud of her. We were married in 1958 and have five children. Lena cer- tainly has changed. I can't get her to go out and find a job no} matter how hard I try. My mother lives with us and al- though she's on crutches she could watch the children fine. Our oldest child is five and she is like a little mother to the younger ones. Last night I told Lena I didn't think she was carrying her share of the load, While I work hard in the mill she's at home taking it easy. Lena got mad and said, "Why don't you shut your foolish mouth?" She reads your column and thinks you are smart. Please tell her to stop making excuses and go to work. I could sure use the help. -- Red Dear Red: A woman who has had five children in six years doesn't need an excuse for not going to work. She's got plenty of work at home. I can't imagine what Lena does at home all day after she finishes the laundry, the iron- ing, cleaning, scrubbing, cook- ing, baking, dishwashing, mend- ing, marketing and referees the children's fights. Maybe she just collapses. I second the motion about your mouth, Bus- er. Dear Ann Landers: I pasted a guy in the.mush because he said something fresh to my girl. Now she won't speak to e. Last night we were at a restaurant and a loud drunk in the next booth kept hogging the juke box and playing the same record over and over. I asked him to knock it off. He said he liked the record and was going to play it at least a dozen times more. I told him my girl hates the record and it was making her sick. He called her a mopey, bow-legged broad so I let him have one right in the kisser. The owner of the restaurant threw us out. Now my girl says she wants nothing to do with a roughneck who fights in public. Honest, Ann, it was just like I fold you. Please help me. -- Frank Dear Frank:.

Dear Ann Landers: I was es- pecially pleased to hear you roast the time-honored (and in- sulting) practice of men hud- dling at parties and ignoring' the women. This is a junior high school stunt--boys on one side and igiris on the other. I refuse to believe that men and women must be segregated to insure interesting conversa- tion for both. When we enter- tain I remain firmly rooted in the living room with the girls. This forces the men to come in from the kitchen and the back porch. Since the separation of the sexes is a common social prac- tice I wish you'd lambaste it one more time. Thank you.-- Mr. J.H.B. of Greensboro Dear J.H.B.; You are a gen- erous man, indeed, to place the males, I happen to believe it's the women who are at fault. When they begin to play "PTA" or "Wardrobe," or "Kitchen," or "Junior said the cutest thing today," the men wander off. And who can blame them?
