Model In Search Of
A 17-Inch Waist

("New Look") Dior, the world's most front-. paged fashion-maker, is fo- shion's toughest employer too. Few even of Paris's manne- quins can measure up to exact- ing Dior standards. He combs Europe to find girls who do..
Some Dior specifications: no corsets or brassieres to be worn but the waist of his wide- skirted dresses is 17ln., and if a mannequin is too big for them she's just squeezed in, even if she faints.
Gabrielle Young, 30-year-old, nuburn-haired London model (sketched here by Phipps), who worked for Dior last season in Poris and is still under contract to him, is wondering whether she can make the grade again next January without making herself ill.
Her waist is 21in. (slim for her 5ft. 10in. figure), but this autumn two expert filters were needed to get her into Dior's dresses.
She's therefore searching London for a substitute, but so far no candidate tall enough, with waist of less than 23in., has shown up.

DENTAL FIFTH COLUMN
By GEORGE L. WOLCOTT, BRISTOL-MYERS CO.
Those swoots and starches which are such an im- portant and tasty part of your diot also can be a deadly Fifth Column to your tooth when they are permitted to loiter where they don't belong —on the surfaces of or in thê spaces between your tooth.
The sweets and starches, you see, get together, un- der the protective cover of your neglect, with a band of ruffians called bacteria and together they produce an acid sufficiently powerful to destroy part of the tough coat of enamel which guards your teeth. Not many such assaults are needed to sabotage a priceless, healthy tooth, with the appearance of that all-too-familiar cavity which causes pain, unnecessary expense and perhaps impairment of your general health.
