Try Schedule For Grooming Easier to Keep Looking Well f Routine 1s Followed It takes less tine to keep well groomed if we follow a schedule writes Donna Grace, beauty edi- tor. One manicure a week will do, provided we do the nail-scrub- bing every morning and use the emery board for removing any rough edges, then a quick going over with the orange-wood stick, followed by hand lotion, T takes only a few moments. WEEK-END FOR THE EXTRAS There should be a day for the visit to the hairdresser, Make this a regular hour if possible as it will prevent waste of time. The morning hours are best, Those who go to beauty "sal- ons for just the hair and mam- cure may do their facials and grooming at night or take a week- end whenever possible for the ex- tras. Just avoid invitations and give the time to improving your looks and you will surprise your friends with your smartness.

GELBIN Copyright 1940 by Loew's Inc, SYNOPSIS Mr. Darcy and Charles Bingley, two rich London bachelors, Bingley and Jane fall In love at-first sight; but Darcy's arrogant pride prejudices Elizabeth against him, despite the fact that they are warmly drawn to each other. Darcy finds Eliz abeth's mother and her three other sisters, Mary, Lydia and Kitty, In- lieving he should not marry a girl beneath him socially, to marry. Jane is heartbroken. But Darcy cannot kill his love for Elizabeth. He proposes and she turns him down with contempt. She berates him further for his unforgivable rudeness to Mr. Wickham, an army officer whose father was once Darcy's steward. Then, Wickham prevails upon Lydia to ruh away without marrying her. Darcy then ' tells Elizabeth that Wickham had tried the same trick with his own sister, Georgiana, Elizabeth is dis- traught at having so. misjudged her apology. Lydia and Wickham return suddenly. They are married and have plenty of money. Into the family reunion storms Lady Cath- erine de Brough, Darcy's arrogant and snobbish Aunt. She demands a private interview with Elizabeth.

Women in the United States live on an average about four years longer than men. The average longevity of the men is now about 61 years, of women about 65. When you are born in the United States your expectation of life is 60.8 years. If you manage to live one year of age, this rises to 63 years. The first year of life is the most danger- LOUS ---= except, as some wit cor- rected it, the last year. But at the end of one year, you have the longest prospect of years of life. When you reach 16, you have only 50 years to look forward to; when you are 4% only a bare quarter-century. SEVERAL YEARS GAINED We have gained several years _since the dawn of the century. In 1901, an American woman had an average length of life of b1 years (compared to the present 65) and the American male an average of about 49 years (com- pared to his present 61). Seasonal variations in the death rate are interesting. The largest number of deaths at all ages occurs in February, the loweft in September. This is casy to under- stand because the death rate from pneumonia, respiratory infections, and exposure comes in December, . February and March, January, Old people die in the winter, ba- bies in the summer, In other days, the death rate in July and Aug- ust would have been nearly as high as in February -- from in- fantile dysentry -- but cla ilk and other things have réduced that. The output of Canadian news- print during the first eisht months of 1940 totalled 2,300,000 tons as against 1,800,000 tons in the corresponding period of 1939, a gain of nearly 27 per cent. m= > By SADIE B.

One-piece Shoe - Is Unique Model A revolutionary new shoe for wemen, with the sole and. the up- per molded from one piece of leather, is being shown in New York. : Jodel, the designer, says his shoe is based on the theory that since a foot is a continuous series of curves, it should be encased in softly curved leathér, rather than in a shoe with a stiff sole tacked on the bottom. The new design is rain-resist- ant -- there's no seam for water to seep through. Three steps 'in the soft-soled shoe's evolution are exhibited in the shops.
