o you r c having a shower for a wartime bride! See Marguerite Chapman *f o r ^ AT FIRST I didn't know what to do! "Factory film"(dust that flies around the factory) made my hair dull and mousy-iooking — the ends became straggly and unmanageable! Finally, I spoke to the girl whose hair was the envy of the whole shop. NOW "factory film" never bothers me either on the job or after hours for Colorinse adds sparkle and glamorous highlights to my hair.

Even last June, we were giving brides china and glass and all sorts of fragilethings that looked lovely but had to be handled with care. We never thought about weighing a gift, or finding out if it would pack. Now if a thing won't pack, it's OUT! "Most war brides follow their husbands around the country to be near them while they train for service, so the only sensible or welcome gifts are those they can take along to make the homes-in-waiting livable. "I'm having a shower for my latest war bride friend, and invitations read : 'To fill a bride's trunk.' You know those small, compact trunks brides are buying now? Every gift should be selected with regard to whether or not the bride can carry it safely from place to place — also whether or not it will add to the new home." Very few war brides who are setting up housekeeping will be lucky enough to find an apartment like Marguerite's. It's a duplex in one of Hollywood's prettiest studioapartment-courts. From her balcony on the third floor, the leading lady of "Destroyer" can look down on the courtyard with its two avenues of tall cocoanut palms, its flagged walks, its bubbling fountains and giant ferns. 8 SCREENLAND
