RAGE SIX THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE BEAUTY FOR YOU Knotted Faces Should Not Be! By HELEN After observing hurried shoppers m the buy-ways, one must come to she conclusion that few of them aave calm, happy-looking faces. Most of them bear the tense ex- sressiori--lips drawn tightly to- ° gether, eyebrows pulled into frowns. The world is in a 'pretty terrible state; we will agree, but it isn't made 'any better by letting one's nervous system go haywire. When nerves are quiet and the mind is at peace, the face reflects this pleas- ant condition, Twist your facial fibers, keep them tense, and you'll some to grief as far as beauty ills are concernéd. This is' a high-pressure age. It is particularly necessary these days that we guard health, that we strive to 'the utniost to hang onto the ap-' pearance of youth, for the sake of ourselves and our families, who must look at us every day. It is no fun for Daddy to come home to a Mamma whose face is long-drawn- out, who carries her body wearily, who doesn't look in the least like the pretty girl he married. What it to be done about tension and screaming nerves? The answer to that is the stolen hour of soli- tugde when a woman can commune with her soul, make herself over, restore courage, hope and energy through physical, mental and emo- tional relaxation. One cannot go at top speed all the time. That is what most of us are doing.' If .it isn't hard work, it is exciting play. There are women who seem al- ways to be. at loose ends. Their faces are strained and troubled. Beauty shops are full of them, seek- | ing relief from lines and wrinkles that are of their own making. They don't kncw thaf one's life should be organized, lived as closely to a plan as one can manage. They haven't found out that it is ten times easier to wash the dishes immediately after a meal than to comé into the kitchen hours later to be rebuked by a sinkful of pots and pans that need attention. They are the kind who start pro- jects. and seldom finish them. They never have the satisfaction of feel- JAMESON _ ' 'Some women séem to be always at loose ends, X * + ing that they have done their day's work 'well, carried on with fly- ing banners. They expect a tre- mendous amount of energy and ac- complish little or nothing. To be methodical and practical may seem like slavery, but it isn't. | It means that, when work is done, one can settle down for a period of relation without a thought of some. task that is nagging at one to be attended to. Peace of mind and freedom from | tension are youthifiers and beauti- | fiers. They do more than cosme- | tics and facial treatments can ever | do. Without them one is ever in a state of mental and emotional con- fusion. If life teaches a woman anything, it should teach her to be tranquil. Jodges and Societies. OAKLEIGH LODGE, L.O.BA.

Dainty plates featuring green and red snow-man apples were served. The Christmas cake in its place of honor on a gaily decorated table was cut by Mrs. May Lang, W.M. and served by Mrs. Ethel Martin and her committee.

This accounts for the fact that the two basic types of ear infestions are seasonal. In winter, when colds are preva- lent, germs from the nasal passages are likely to travel up the tube which. connects the ears with the thrbat and set up a secondary in- fection in some part of the ear. These germs are usually of the var- iety known as gram-positive organ- isms Polluted Water During the summer, because that is the season for open-air bathing, ear infection is usually acquired from without by contact with pol- luted water during swimming, The trouble-makers in tWese cases are of the gram-negative kind. One type is just as dangerous as the other; gram-negative and gram-positive refer only to the me- thod we have of staining the germs so that they can be seen under the microscope, However, germs in the two categories are different in that the sulfonamide drugs and pennie- cillin will atack and kill the gram= positive germs. The gram-negative germs are not too well controlled by these drugs. Encouraging Resulis Recently, however, Drs. Merrill B. Hayes and C. Fremont Hal have ob~ tained most encouraging results in treating infections caused by gram- negative germs with a drug with a long and ferocious name, dibromsa- licylaldehyde. Since one infection seems to pre. | pare the ground for another pa- tients with an old ear infection, or a chronic running ear, are likely to be harboring germs of both var- ieties. Thus the "treatment used in | this condition was directed at both | kinds of organisms, = Injection Into Muscle Such patients were given penicil- | lin by injection into a muscle every | three. hours until the gram-positive | germs disappeared. The attack was | then begun on the gram-negative | organisms, The ear was cleaned | and washed out once or twice al day with a solution of the dirom | salicylaldehyde. Following each | washing of the ear, a powder con- | taining the same drug, in addition to borax and talc, was blown into the ear. In treating inflammation of the external ear canal, the tissues were cleaned as thorcughly as possible, and then a piece of gauze saturated with the dibromsalicylaldehyde was put into the ear canal. This was left in place for from one to three days, then removed, and. another piece of gauze inserted, Burning Sensation Occasicnally, a patient complains of a burning sensation which per- sists as long as three hours after the gauze is put into the ear. Often one treatment is sufficient in these ca- ses. In most instances, relief of the Symptoms in the external ear canal infection cleared up within twenty- four hours, and the disorder was cleared up completely within one to four weeks. In cases of chronic run. Cok Rally may require up to 2% months treatment to ov the disorder, ' Stoone Cleanliness Important Extreme cleanliness is the first requisite of treatmefit and in some instances, merely keeping the ear clean will cause the infection to clear up for the time being at least. In deep-seated infections, perma- nent cure cannot he expected une less the germs are of the type which penicillif will rout, since they are so deeply entrenched that they can oi ke reached by a substance that | can carried to the ea the blood stream.

LJ ONE of the pleasant excitements of beauty shopping is to find a new shade of finger nail polish. You may fancy that 'cosmetic chemists have exhausted all the pink and red tones from coral to deep wines, but they haven't. There are offerings of delicate blue-reds, almost mauve, that are charming. They belong to the "spring-is-bust- ing-out-all-over" color class and they make hands look whiter, slim- mer, younger, the way you want your hands to look, There's a new pinky-red that is not vivid. Makes you think of geranium blooms. J Try Something New Don't be a stand-patter when loitering at the cozmetic counter. Don't just purchase whatever you have been using. Ask the attendant to tote out the new items. A change of rouge, lipstick or polish is ex- citing, Of course you should buy all three at once so they will form a color family. Not all the same shade, necessarily, but tints and tones that will get together in a <* Hollywood .

CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: If 'an invitation to a holiday dinner (Christmas for example, or Thanksgiving) is extended to members of the immediate family one week before the holiday, is that considered a very late invi- tation? (Please bear in mind that the family giving the dinner and the family invited are very close.) If so, how many days or weeks beforehand should an invitation be extended before a holiday din- ner? : : Reader Theres no rule-of-time about this , . ; there couldn't be, be- cause it would depend entirely on circumstances, There may be any number of 'reasons why the family giving the dinner may not be zble ta decide until quite late that they can or wish to give the ed holiday dinner; there may have been illness or other indisposition in the family, or there may have been a change in their plans about being in town, or perhaps there was that. ol' debbil budget to, wrestle with! The family who apparently was expecting to be invited shouldn't have had a chip on its collective shoulder . , , if it didn't wish to wait for the invita- tion, any other invitation might have been accepted, or the late. in- vitation not accepted if the late- ness of. the invitation seemed (for any reason, valid or imagined) lacking in thoughtfulness or gra- ciousness.

No Christmas Gift to Employer Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Would it be correct for me to give my boss, who is a married man, a Christmas gift? If so, what would you suggest? Or sheuld I give something for both him and his wife? ' A.L. It's much, much wiser not to give. your employer a Christmas present, The chances are definite- ly that he wouldn't like to have you do this, and that he'd be em- barrassed if you did. My advice is that you show sure and excellent taste by sending a carefully,cho- sen Christmas card addressed to your employer and his wife at their home-address, When Best Man gives Fee To The Clergyman For The Bridegroom Dear Mrs. Beeckman: As per your advice in your col- umn the other day, I am planning to give my best man the fee for the clergyman who is to perform the ceremony, I have decided to give two ten-dollar bills, "new, crisp bills" as you emphasized they should be, and to put them in a small white envelope. Now my. best man wishes to know what is the proper time for him to hand thig envelope to the celr gyman, Please advise! Tom The time generally considered most convenient for the best man to hand to the clergyman the en- velope containing the fee is when he (the best man) and the bride. eroom are waiting with. the clergyman just before going into thé church for the ceremony.

Ten Top Designers Remain Exclusive By JOAN CAPREOL London-- (Reuters) -- A storm 1s in the London fashion now is being used in circles which rarely discuss trade unien matters. The trouble began when the "Big Fastiion 10"--the. incorporated so- ciety of London fashion designers-- refused to take 'under their wing promising young British fashion designers and turned down their ap- plications for membership. The society was formed in 1942 by 10 powerful dress houses to izake London a world fashion centre, Members are Norman Hartnell, the Queen's dressmaker, who made Princess Elizabeth's wedding dress; Molyneux, the Frenchman who es- tablished himself in London during the war; Victor Stiebel; Angele De. lanche; Digby Morton; Peter Rus- sell; Hardy Amies Worth; Charles Creed; and Bianca Mosca. Fashion fists were bared recently when four other well known fash- ion creators--Rahvis, Strassner, He- lena Geffers and Michael Sherrard --asked to become members but were turned down under secret bal- lot and at the tiene given no reason. But today Miss Lillian Hyder, se- cretary of the society said; "All this talk about closed shop is ridiculous. There is no closed shop. Our organization has nothing to do with trade, It was formed to de- velop the established London de- signer. London's quality has never been questioned but its artistry has. We must protect the establish ed designer." The criterion for membership is editorial acqriowledgement of a de- signer's ¢ollections Vogue and Horper's Magusinas There is no question thi ree of the designers who applied for membership do not make good clothes.
