HOW LUXURIES IN BRITAIN
HAVE
BEEN CUT DOWN
LONDON, June 6.
FROM to-day women will have to cut down a large pro portion of the luxuries of life.. And the word luxuries includes many, many things which most women in peace-time have re- garded as essentials.
By order of the Government, every side of every woman's life is to lose most of its glamour and much of its comfort in order to assist in the nation's war effort.
BEAUTY is a luxury. So cosmetics and all beauty aids will have to be made to last a long time. Permanent waves will have to be more permanent than ever, and visits to hairdressers and beauty parlours made more rarely.
