From Time Magazine. November 1949.

If you’re a working girl, be a working girl and not a would-be siren. Never try to flirt with your boss… he’s your bread and butter and not your honey. Be business-like not only in your approach to your work, but in your personal appearance, your manners and your deportment. By this we do not mean that you should try and disguise the fact that you’re a woman, but simply that, during work hours, you shouldn’t flaunt that fact around like a flirtatious flag.

DONT’S
• Wear tight skirts that slip above your knees when you sit at desk or bench, or flimsy full ones that billow around your waist whenever a draught blows round a corner.

• Drench yourself in heady perfume or strong-scented powder.

• Think yourself a budding Marilyn Monroe and wear sweaters two sizes too small.

• Arrive late at work and expect a smile to get you off.

• Simper at the boss whenever he comes around.

• Be coy with every male in sight.

• Keep tizzying your hair in office hours.

• Change your nail varnish in the shelter of typewriter or machine.

• Sit with legs a-sprawl and arms akimbo.

• Keep a cigarette dangling from your lips.

• Clatter around with bracelets at wrist.

• Have long phone gossips with the boyfriend.

• Titter the minutes away with office mates.

• Start refurbishing your make-up 10 minutes before closing time.

• Turn your desk drawers into a medicine chest and beauty case.

• Leave spare shoes, bags and hats around.

From Woman’s World. c. late 1950s

Women:

Have you a household problem to solve? Write your question clearly, sign your name and address, enclose a three-cent postage stamp and mail to The Woman’s Edition The Gazette Washington Service Bureau. 1018 18th Street, Washington. D. C.. for a personal reply
Don’t telephone: write as directed.

Q. How are cracklings prepared for food?

A. Cook the rinds in a large kettle over a medium fire. The kettle should be covered until the fat has cooked out. Then uncover while the rinds brown. Remove from the kettle and drain.

Q. Should I continue to use “junior” on my cards after my father’s death? My mother is still
living, and of course, she bears the same name as my wife.

A. This is somewhat a matter of personal taste but strict etiquette requires the dropping of the suffix “junior” and your mother becomes either Mrs. John Smith, senior, or, preferably, simply Mrs. Smith.

Q. Are twins and triplets usually smaller at birth than single children?

A. Although they are often less fully developed at birth, twins and triplets measured at 6 years of age do not usually show any appreciable retardation of growth.
