After all, when the study lamps are lighted at least three-fourths of "higher-education" girls take to slacks and the further south one goes in this state, the faster the slack situation always multiplies. But what I so very much liked about what I saw were the possibilities.

We have all seen these nicely cut corduroy slacks before. But the shirts which go with them this year have taken on just a wee bit of feminine coyness in little yoke and puffed sleeves very becoming. And between their fabric and the nice maroon or woodsy green or equally suitable colors, they can walk forth to the corner for a soda or out on any lawn for a rest. And then there were these jackets beer jackets the girls back at Vassar called them when theye were wearing them by veritable, hundreds last year. They are straight little workmen's jackets with big patch pockets.

In fact, the whole costume looks like a most imaginative designer's conception of what an idealized Soviet might wear in picturesque action. What I began thinking, immediately, however, was that the jacket and blouse could make other tie-ups too. For instance, supposing the young student should get suddenly just too weary of studying. Off might come the slacks and on with a plaid wool skirt and she could go to the movies or for a walk or just about anywhere where sports clothes are the thing. And then, all apart from time saving think how the little budget could stretch and stretch with such a corduroy contingency in its midst.

Dear A. A. A A boxy grey coat, a green and grey skirt and perhaps a yellow blouse and your problem is what accessories? How would you like saddle tan oxfords and bag-yellow pigskin gloves and a green beanie? M. H.

Her commentary on the volume revealed the deft characterization, the rich humor and sympathetic perception of the author. It created, too, a very vivid picture of a cross section of "the people" of Spain, and the rank and file who have been aligned on the two sides of the civil war in Spain and whose lives are being shattered by it.
