On nand to greet guests at a preview of the new floor yesterwere Fred Zeitz, president of Martin's; Harry Zeitz, vice president; Mrs. Meta Nosworthy, vice president in charge of fashion, and Morris Lapidus, the architect who designed the new floor. The over-all picture one gets of Martin's Fourth Floor is not merely modern, it's futuristic.

Each of the departments has been cut to fit the size and age of the youngster for whom it was intended. A mural above the sets the keynote. Colorful cutouts trace younger set activities from Latin class to soda store and on to football games and dances. The juke box had to be given a special paint job so that could keep pace with the smooth streamlining of the rest of the floor! When one steps onto the Fourth Floor from the elevator mosaic columns mark the entrance to the tot and toddler shops. Each pictures a favorite story scene.

There's Jack and Jill on one side and Jack and the beanstalk on the other. The small girl's shop is the right and the small boy's to the left and each is done in priate pastels. A really modern touch was added with the "model's try-on promenade." Visiting tykes can walk around a small platform and see themselves in junior sized mirrors. There's a new idea for the children's shoe department, too. Not only are there chairs of varying heights to suit every size of child but also a little "stage" for trying on shoes.

In line with the swirling lines of the new Fourth Floor the Layette Shop has a concave counter. Comfortable chairs upholstered in pink and blue leather face it. Above the counter is a shadow box showing babies parachuting earthward. The Teen Shop centers about the Trysting Tree which is a wonderful fake tree with comfortable benches where friends can meet afternoon. beneath, Another highspot of the Teen Shop is the record-packed juke box featuring everyone from Hoagy Carmichael to Benny Goodman.

Unexpected mirrors are another unusual feature of this particular, there part of mirrored the floor. columns Not but there are unexpected looking glasses placed throughout the shop.

Not only are the triumph but they contain everyteen aged date dresses.

The floor rooms have been especially designed to make clothes selection pleasant. Around the swirling Hat Bar every popular hat fashion is shown on abstract modeled heads. Leaving the Teen Shop you'll find Humpty Dumpty, no less, leading the way to Playland. Martin's is justly proud of this new idea. It's a wonderfully colorful room with a big blackboard and school desks, toys and a milk bar where mothers can park their children for a glass of milk.

A trained nurse will be in attendance. Two of the most unusual features of the new floor are the wonderful new barber shop for boys and its twin, the junior beauty shop for small sisters. "Barber chairs" in the shop are made to look like catcher's mitts mounted on baseball bats! They face a huge mirror surrounded by a wall papered with the funnies. The entire floor, to get back to the all-over effect, is softly carpeted in a rich pink with a waffle design. The showcases are illuminated with cold cathode lighting and the floor lighting is both incandescent and fluorescent.

All of the counters have glass tops SO that merappro-chandise can easily be seen. But it all has to be seen to be believed! Curves Come Back The first of the season's regular Wednesday luncheon fashion shows in the Sert Room of the Waldorf-Astoria yesterday struck a new mood of luxury. The clothes shown represented a nostalgic return to a past where rationing was unknown. The season's new silhouette was revealed, based on old design: woman's curves. Rounded shoulders, small waists and "hippy" emphasis recalled past of mannered elegance.

Color, fabric, design all proclaimed emancipation from war's disciplines. There was a notable of separates done in "Flag" red, "Peace" gray, spiked with bold stripes. Full skirts complemented high-to-the-neck jackets with shoulders rounded. In the informal groups were slacks frankly full at the hips, tapering recklessly to the ankles and, like an impudent gesture to a grim past, Puritan knickerbockers, fastened at the knee with silver buckles.

First is a handsome circle of flavor called FrouFrou that offers crisp, tasty satisfaction with every bite. Gossamer vanilla wafers from the base for this treat. Six wafers piled one upon the other add to less than inch thickness, even though each wafer has an icing of hazelnut paste to form a filling between layers.

In prewar days of plenty confections such as these were among the foods imported from Old Vienna. Today's treats are American made. Luscious Cream Pudding.

Fall Suppers Call for Livelier Desserts That Match the Spice of the Evening Air By MARGARET PETTIGREW teaspoon vanilla 1 cup heavy cream Dainty desserts, the fluff and lace of the Summer supper, fall from favor when chill days fill the calendar. Palates prefer the middleweights in weather such as this. We're not quite ready for the steaming sturdies of icy days but we do seek a slight revamping when it comes to topping the fall menu to a tasty T. Of course, sugar may be the villain of your dessert visions this season as it was last. But never fear, the American homemaker knows her way around that shortage.

We can still have a long list of tongue-ticklers, sweet as you please, and snub the sugar bowl to a fare-thee-well. Molasses corn syrup, maple syrup and others of their ilk can take the place in sweets such as these especially designed for Fall fare. Luscious Cream Pudding 4 cups cornflakes cup melted butter or margarine 6 tablespoons flour teaspoon salt cup sweetened condensed milk 2 cups hot water 2 eggs, separated Shop Talk for Man Hunters By SHIELA The increasing emphasis on clothes-making by high school girls is not just a local phenomena. The reaction to the good-look-2 ing, pattern-made fashions that have been modeled in several of the Fulton St. stores has been duplicate all over the country, it seems.

When, for instance, a Brooklyn sophomore dashed into the yardgoods department for two and a half yards of red wool, at least one sophomore in every city the country did likewise, accordto a nationwide survey made by Women's Wear Daily. And the popularity-spurt is due both to the good-looking young designs and the colorful fabrics fabric counters are featuring. Locally, high school girls select their patterns and material with both eyes on practicality. They don't go for furbelows at all. Almost everything is chosen with a view toward dual usefor classroom wear and dates.

In Detroit the taste of teen-age boys was the deciding factor in fabrics and patterns chosen. "Their taste was noted to have, a strong influence," the surveytakers noted, "on the clothes chosen by the girls." Suits were the surprising choice of Dallas girls. Possibly because their mothers were much more agreeable to buying more expensive suit fabrics than were mothers in other parts of the country. In general, when good-looking fashion shows were held in late Summer, young customers stormed the fabric departments for yardgoods but held off on patterns until they got reassurances. It looks almost as though the big designers and manufacture ers will be following high school co-eds around the yardgoods and pattern, departments, for their ideas best ideas adopted by amateur dressI makers.

Again the thinnest wafers join forces with a filling to tempt the tongue. This time the wafers are chocolate and two of them make a thin, though healthy sized mouthful.

S. M. of Rochester, N. son of Mrs. Louise The wedding took place on Saturday, in the DEAR MARY Last Spring, from a trip, in, while waiting he was going.

my way we traveled together and became well acquainted. When we reached the city of his destination, at p.m., he persuaded me to stop over and take a later train, 80 we could spend when returning I met a soldier for my train. As 7 7 to the evening Mary Haworth together. Before my train left at 2 a.m., he had asked me to marry him and I did not say "no." We are both in our late twenties. I am divorced and he told me he had been engaged before entering the Army, but the girl found someone else while he was overseas.

Later I received two letters from him, several weeks apart, in each of which he said he had Something very important to tell me. Three weeks ago, I spent a weekend nearby his station and he told me that he had married the girl the day before he joined the service. After more than a year overseas, he came home on furlough and found she was expecting a child, who couldn't possibly be his. His mother told him that his wife had been going with other men, but mended forgiveness, as their religion prohibits divorce. Hopes for Divorce However, he says he cannot go on with her, and intends, as soon as he is discharged from service, to see what he can do through the church to dissolve the marriage, so his folks won't feel so bad about it.

He hadn't changed his mind about me and I feel the same about him. When we. marry parted, when we he is still able. planned But on to the train home I did a lot of thinking, and one week later I wrote to him, setting forth the many reasons why I thought he should forget me and go back to her. It was the hardest letter I ever wrote--for I have known only one other man who attracted me so strongly; and he married another girl 10 years ago.

Yet in writing thus, I was very sure I had to do it. But I have not heard from him since and now I keep wondering if I should have written it. I am strongly tempted to write him letter. In a case like this, is a girl justified in holding on and fighting for what she wants? Or should she step aside in favor of the wife? R. W.

Listen to Inner Voice DEAR R. my opinion, your guardian angel got through to you in those quiet hours of meditation on the train, and dictated that letter of renunciation. Cling to the line of reasoningthe principle and impulseswhich inspired you to write it, and you will indeed be holding on to and fighting for your heart's desire: namely, true love and joyous lasting marriage. In your hunger (which indicates your need) for this good way of life, you were panting after a will-o'-the-wisp, temporarily, in fostering a deadly serious romance with your pick-up acquaintance. You were permitting yourself to be drawn step by step into a bog in which you would have lost all sense of direction.

subjectively and socially, had you not turned back in spirit just when you did. Can't Offer Sanctuary There is no sanctuary for you on the way the man beckons even though emotional hunger tempts you to resume the venture. And while pure moral conscience may have played some part in arguing consideration of the wife's unhappy position, still I think the plain primitive instinct. for self-preservation more to do with bringing you up short. As we say in the vernacular, what's the percentage in rating yourself engaged to a man whose background is such, and SO clouded over, that each new fact ferreted out affords additional obstacles to a sentimental exchange--much less marriage.

As it happens, you are still by the narrowest margin in a position to withdraw from the imbroglio with banners flying. And my vice is: Do just that. Abide by the philosophy expressed in your letter and let that end it. M. H..
