You know how a vacuum cleaner sucks dust and dirt from rugs and furniture! Well, here's the same principle in "Vac" — a tiny rubber vacuum for the skin.

Cutex supplies the grandest little kit to arm collegiennes with what they'll need for nice-looking nails at school.

But it is — when it's Kleinert's "Sporttime" pantie-girdle, a supple, satin restrainer that's easy to wear, to wash and to dry, and never, never rolls into a tire at the top. $1 at Bloomingdale's, N.

THE CROTCH-ZIP GIRDLE Clothes are so efficient these days — we can hardly keep up with the improvements! Newest of all is Sheer Mold's "Crotch-Zip" pantie-girdle of petal pink Leno and satin Lastex. A feather-weight crotch-zipper puts an end to the tugging and straining that results in broken fingernails. $5 at Bullock's, Los Angeles. 17. HOT TAMALE All this talk about South America set Coty to thinking about South American beauties. The next step was a magnificent South American make-up, "Tamale," vivid, vibrant, fine for blondes or brunettes, smart with black or white or midway colors. Try it.
