TUESDAY, APRIL 20, 1948 THE DAILY TI MES-GAZETTE 4 PAGE SEVEN 'Women who awaken in the morn- ing to find puffy little hammocks under their eyes have a real beau- ty grief. Usually, they don't feel quite pp to standard. They're dog- tired. The reflections in. the looking glass are anything but cheering, In rare cases, these little tissue bulges are an inheritance, passed along from one generation to an- other, the same as hair that goes grey prematurely! Not much can be done about them. If the pouches come and go, that is a different matter. A woman should seek the | | | | i 21; i i 1 cause. It may be found in loss of + sleep, digestive disturbances or a ling nervous system. Fatigue is the commonest cause ~~+of little bags under the eyes. Fa- tigue is not necessarily due to over- work -or loss of sleep; it may be the result of mental or emotional strain that reacts upon the physi- cal system and appearance. A wo- man who makes worrying a day and night job will weaken her energy motors, get herself into such a state of exhaustion that she is just about sick abed. Her cure will be found in mental hygiene, cultivating a more courageous outlook on life. Local treatment is helpful. If the pouches are there, the merry even- ing is ahead, and you want to look especially charming, bathe the eyes --first with hot water, then with cold. Dip a heavy washcloth in ice water and place it over the swollen tissues. Hold the cloth close to the flesh and lie down and relax for fifteen minutes. Pads of gauze do not cover enough of the skin sur- face to do any good. In time the flesh will become warm and glow- ing; gradually the tissues will shrink. . Close the doors of your mind, think about nothing at all. Perhaps you can catch forty winks; if you can, that will help. Get out the jar of massage cream; give the tissues surrounding the eyes a light treatment. Place the first finger on tie eyelids, close to BEAUTY FOR YOU -- .

It is a good idea to have two shades of powder, using a darker shade on the swollen tissues to cast them into a shadow. The defect will be less noticeable.

At a press con- feren®e-on the latest developments for the Festival, it was learned that the city has invited Jan Sibelius, the famous Finnish com- poser, and his wife and Dr. Ralph Vatghan Williams, the grand old man of British music, to visit the Festival this summer as her guests. Sibelius is 82 years of age, and lives. quietly in semi-retirement, at Jarvenpaa, near Helsingfors. He has not left his native country since before the war, and if he omes to Edinburgh it is almost | } certain that he will fly direct.

Booking, for the Festival began on March 30, and already 25,000 copies of a brochure with details of the programmes have been sent out by the Scottish Tourist Board to every country in the world. Last year a most successful feature of the event was a festival of docu- mentary films. It was organized by the Edinburgh Film Guild, the largest film society in Britain, and fn recognition of the interest it created the chairman of the Guild has been invited to join the Council of the Festival Society. One of the criticisms of last year's programmes was that there was so little of Scottish origin in them. It was pointed out by not a few letter-writers in the daily press that Scotland's contribution to world music and drama were hardly fit to be offered along with the sublime heights of art being presented by some of the greatest orchestras and artists. That may be, but the Council have decided that this year there shall be Scot- tish concerts, and five programmes arg being arranged to allow visit- ors--and Scots at home, too--to hear works by modern Scots and by medieval--songs of the Scot- tish Lowlands, of the Gaelic-speak- ing part of the country, of the present-day composer Francis George Scot, and music of the fifteenth century by Robert John- son, who was forced to flee to England at the time of the Re- formation in Scotland. The Glas- gow Orpheus Choir will also con- tribute a concert on the closing day, September 12th. Other features of this year's Edinburgh Fegtival, which will take place from August 22nd to September 11th, will include the appearance of at least four cele- brated United Kingdom orchestras --the British Broacasting Cor- poration Symphony, the BBC. Scottish, . the. . Liverpool Phil harmonic and the Halle--in addi- tion to two notable orchestras from overseas. 4 The well-known Huddersfield (England) Choir is to give two concerts 'with the Liverpool Phil- harmonic. Sir Adrian Boult, John Barbirolli, Sir Malcolm Sargent and Ian Whyte are among the British conductors already engag- ed, and it is expected that these programmes will include many works by Beethoven and Mozart, counter-balancing the emphasis on Brahms last year. Schnabel will again be a leading soloist, and will perform five or six Mozart concertos with different orchestras. Yehudi Menuhin and Louis Kentner will play the ten Beethoven sonatas, and Cortot will repeat practically the whole of the programme which Chopin Hopetoun Rooms in| dinburgh in 1848. The Glyndebourne Opera Com- any will perform "Don Giovanni" and "Cosi fan Tutte" on alternate nights for three weeks at the King's Theatre. At the Empire Theatre there will be ballet again.

BUNDESEN, M.D. BURNS OFTEN FATAL Tt is a tragic fact that the lead- ing cause of accidental deaths among children in the United States is burns. The tragedy lies in the preventable nature of many of these deaths for, with proper firste adi and the right subsequent treat- ment, many of these lives could have been saved. This is something for every parent to think about right now. ; Burns are classified according to the degree of tissue damage; for example, the first-degree burn is one which just reddens the skin; in a second-degree burn blisters form, and in a third-degree burn, the deeper tissues are injured or even destroyed. Danger to Life Whenever more than one-tenth of the body surface is affected by a burn of second. or third-degree, there is danger 'to life. What can be accomplished by good treatment is shown by the ultimate recovery of many people who have had up to half of the body surface burned. It was thought at one time that extensive burns were dangerous be- cause the body absorbed toxic or poisonous substances from the burned area. Today we are 'less sure about this, but we do know that one of the worst consequences of serious burns is the loss of body fluids and the consequent shock. A bad burn can prove fatal. Later on, the chief danger comes from tox- emia. Subsequently, infection may develop and be another source of grave danger. Thus, treatment is directed at combating these three things. It consists chiefly in the administra- tion of drugs to ease the pain; the giving, by injection into a vein, of fluids to replace those lost from the burned area, and protection against infection. Free From Germs Second- and 'third-degree burns' are free from germs at the start but the damaged, weakened tissue makes an almost perfect soil for their growth should they obtain en- trance .to the wound. For this rea- son, most physicians do not favor the use of ointments, even though they are sterile. and contain. an antiseptic, because their applica~ tion may contaminate the burned area with germs, causing an infec- tion which may eat away more tis- sue than was destroyed by the burn itself. Then, too, if ointment is ap- plied it will have to be removed later, a most pianful process for the patient. In all cases of severe burns, the For Pretty Floors 1 . medical ONE pattern -- FOUR rugs!

Queen of the Hollywood acting realm for one year, she was told she must ¢hoose her parts careful- ly, now that she has won an Aca. demy award. "But being careful didn't win me the Academy award," she protests. "Why should I change my ways just beacause of the Oscar? "I want tg continue doing things the way I used to. After all, you (have to take chances. There is no such thing as knowing a picture is going to be good." When I saw Loretta working as a psychology prof in "The Accused," she was still glowing over her Aca- .demy victory. She told of sitting up till dawn at the home of Dore Schary, the man who picked her for "The Farmer's Doughter" role after Ingrid Bergman refused it. As for other changes wrought by Oscar, Loretta said her asking price for pictures hasn't been altered. It has gone up, but that was before she won the award. She intends to continue her usual routine of three films evepy two years -- unless someth "sensational" comes up. ights and Sounds Ray/ Bolger doing a five-minute dancd routine for "Silver Lining" be. fore fan audience of most of the stard from other pictures on the Warpler lot . . .

When women realize that the temple of beauty is built on a foun- dation of vitality and well being they will give more thought to diet, exercise, outdoor life, and get long- er hours of sleep. > No woman is so rushed that she cannot brush her hair at night. A five-minute scalp friction is ex- cellent. Spread your fingers and thumbs over your head, pick up the flesh and roll it, do rotary motions, especially along the nape line to rouse the blood streams there. IODINE IN FOOD Medical authorities recommend the use of lodized salt for preven- tion of simple goitre. Iodine is nec- essary for proper functioning of the thyroid gland. Focd contains little jodine, and, in some inland regions, first and most important thing is to call the doctor. If he can come at once, it is better not to attempt to dress the wound. If his services cannot be secured promptly, wet dressings made of a pint of sterile water and tablespoonful of baking soda, may be applied over the burn- ed surface. But, remember, this is only emergency treatment. It, will not suffice to heal the burn er to save the patient's life. For this, aid . is.required, and the sooner it can be had the better the chance for recovery. . Skin 'Surf&ce. Unbroken In.a first-degree burn there is little danger of infection because the skin surface is not broken. Nonetheless, the burn may be in- tensely painful and, as a rule, a mild ointment, such as sterile pe- troleum jelly, can be applied to give relief, Cold water, applied to a small first-degree burn, such as that caused by 3 match, may also be helpful in relieving the pain. However, it should be applied onyl for a moment, But, remember, in any burn that is at all extensive, first remove the patient from the immediate vicinity of the accident. Next, call the doc- tor. Then apply a mixture of bak- ing soda and cool water. Finally, while waiting for the doctof if you understand the use of pain-reliev- ling drugs, and they are available, | administer a dase to help relieve pain, QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS N. A.

CORNELIUS BEECEMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My husband and I are teetotalers and we don't serve alcoholic drinks, But still, when we have guests to dinner, I do like the ceremony of serving something to drink, even though non-alcoholic, in the living~ room before the serving of dinner in the dining.room. Do you think this looks pretentious, or even just plain silly, and do you think I should give up such a plan? Margaret D. No . .. to both your interesting questions! Many hostesses today do just what you have in mind . . « and they serve a simple something with such an air that it gives just the festive party feeling you want to achieve. My first suggestion is that you serve tomato juice, thor- oughly chilled (and served in glas- ses that have been chilled in the refrigerator), and perhaps spiced with various herbs and other sea- sonings you've experimented with to achieve a "very special tomato juice." And you should offer an al. ternative, perhaps a fruit juice, or, as some hostesses do, a cup of cold (in summer) or hot soup. Make any of these first courses even more in- teresting and delicious by serving with them one or two delicious hot canapes and perhaps one of the ex- cellent new pates now on the mar- ket. If you are cook, as well as hos. tess and waitress, you will be cheer- ed by the fact that when you and the guests come into the dining- room, all will be in readiness for the service of the main course. Bride And Bridegroom Should Have Definite Plans About Ushers And Ushering Dear Mrs. Beeckman: (1) At my wedding do I have to have ushers to walk in the proces- sional and recessional? I have asked two girls to be my bridesmaids, and since I haven't planned on having any ushers, I thought I could have the two girls walk up the aisle to- gether, and walk together also in the recessional. But some of my friends tell me this Is incorrect. Is it? (2) Also, how much -should I give the minister who is to perform the ceremony? And how much to the organist and the soloist? H. S. (1) Whether or not you and your {jance plan to have ushers and how any you will have does not de- pend on the number of bridesmaids you have invited, but on the num- ber of guests you plan to invite. Pri- marily the reason for having ushers is so that they will take over the responsibility. of seating the wed. ding guests. (And it is the bride- room, not the bride, who invites the usheérs.) However, if you are to have very few guests, and you don't mind their finding their own places anywhere they wish, you are not obliged to have ushers. Then you may have your two bridesmaids (dressed alike) walk together up the aisle, or separately if you prefer, followed by you and your father; and in the recessional, the two bridesmaids walk either together or separately, following you and the bridegroom. (2) It is the bridegroom's respon- sibility to give the fee or gift to the minister who performs the ceremony. The amount is not fixed, and the bridegroom gives what he decides is the proper amount . . . five dollars is generally considered the minimum for even a small, sim- rle wedding, or the fee may range from ten to twenty-five dollars. The fees you or your family give the organist and the. soloist are their usual professional fees, which amounts you can find out from the minister or the sexton of the church.
