FRIDAY, AUGUST 6, 1948 ~ THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGRPSEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Hairdoes That One of the luxuries of the pres- ent moment that is possible to the woman who doesn't have to skimp on the beauty budget is personaliz- ed hair styling, This prefessional service costs more, of course, than the ordinary hair-do. Considerable experimenting must go on, Men who do this work seem to have solved all the problems. They call themselves artists and, for our money, they are entitled to do so. ' They consider not only the hair, the shape of the head, and the fac- jal features, but also the silhouette. They claim that, correctly coiffed, a tall woman can be made to look ghorter, -a short woman taller, a plump woman thinner, the skinny girl more rounded. Michael Ferrara, writing in re- cent issue of Modern Beauty Shop reveals some interesting secrets. "The tall, thin woman requires a low side parting to give the illu- sion of width to the slender face that usually accompaies this type of figure," he writes. "A flat top hair-do has the effect of decreas- ing the figure height. The ends should be arranged in casual fluffs that cover a long, thin neck and {frame the slender face to make it look fuller," He adds that there should be no severe rolls or harsh' lines. A bang or a wave dipping over the fore- head tends to shorten the long thin, face. If the seeker after improved looks is tall and over-developed of fig- ure, he suggests a high side part- ing that "cuts the face in half," to use his words. This gives the coun- tenance the appearance of less width, The side locks should be ar- ranged in smooth lines, close to the head. No fluff over the ears. The hair is then built up on the crown of the head, but not too high. A few soft rolls, fairly close to the head will add dignity to the mat- ure figure. The short little plumpie can pile up her hair as high as she pleases; Flatter Figures By EELEN JAMESON One luxury of the present moment is personalized hair styling. * Pe the more of it the better, because it will add a few inches to her stat- ure. She, also, must have her tres- ses arranged smoothly at the sides, but in soft patterns, so as to avoid the slick-back look that is so un- becoming to the full-moon face. If you have a short and slender figure you can carry fluffy side locks; if they cover the ears, that is all right, too. Soft casual ring- lets, over the ears create an illus- ion of fullness that conceals the long, thin neck. The cap mode -- short hair with only a few wave lines, ends turned under at the back -- is the good- looks dish for the cute little trick. It is smart and youthful. WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I have invited a girl who is a dear friend of mine and who has worked with me in the office for several years, Ww spend her vaca- tion with -me (we Lave the same two weeks) at my home, which is about six hours' train ride from here, I have bought my railroad ticket . . . but I doubt if she has bought hers, since she hasn't men- tioned it. Am I expected to buy her ticket or to pay her fare, since we are travelling together? I really don't feel that I can afford to pay her fare hoth ways, or even one way, since, although we. are to stay. at my home with my mother and sis- ter, there will be quite a few enter- tainment-expenses., Margaret D. No, it is not necessary for you to pay her travelling expenses, nor should she have the slightest ex- pectation of this. As a matter of fact, since she must realize that this question would arise, she should have gotten busy, bought her round- trip vicket, and assured you that she had it . . . so avoiding any awk- ward procedure. If she doesn't do this before two or three days before your departure, you might drop-a hint, "There may be a long line waiting at the ticket window when we leave . . . s0 I bought my round- trip ticket ahead of time.

Don't be self-conscious about making this suggestion . . . such forthrightness is practical and ne- cessary, when one is on a budget. PAnd your invitation is so generous that it shouldn't be expected to cover any expenses until your guest crosses the threshold of your home, The Marriage. Plans Of a Mature Divorcee Dear Mrs, Beeckman: 1.I am a divorcee, 50 years of age, with two grown children, and I am going to be married soon. What type of wedding is most ap- propriate for me to have? If we are married in a minister's study, is a reception in order? 2. Also an- nouncements of marriage with giv- en time for reception? Undecided 1. You would show the best taste by making simple, informal wed- ding plans. Having the ceremony performed in the minister's study would be a good idea, if this is permitted by the church denomin- ation. Then you may, if you wish (though it is not at all necessary), have a small, informal reception -- at your house (preferably) or in a hotel or club, inviting a few close relatives and intimate friends. 2. Marriage announcements may be sent out by you and the bride- groom, though most often this is not done .when the bride is a di- vorcee, If sent out, these may read: Mr. Peter Wellington and Mrs. Smith Robertson announce their marriage Tuesday, the first of October Nineteen hundred and forty-eight Albany, New York (The reception invitations may be given verbally or by telephone or by note . . . since the marriage an- nouncements are not mailed until after the ceremony ha- taken place, they would not include any men- tion of the reception.) HOSPITALITY By Mrs. Beeckman Golden Rule for Hospitality: Treat everyone who comes to your house as you would like to be trea=- ted if you went to their house. (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to answer questions submitted by rea- ders.) B. and P. Club Briefs Of 11th Convention One of the stories told by the "Woman of the Year" at the Busi ness and Professional Women's club convention banquet last month concerned a young clergy- man for whom brevity was not the soul of wit. One morring he ap- peared at the door of the church after a particularly lengthy serm- on with a plaster on his chin. "How did you cut your chin, asked a solicitous member of the congre- gation. "I was in a hurry shaving this morning, thinking of my ser- mon and I nicked my chin," he an- swered. "Next time, I think," said the inquirer, "You should take more time with your chin and hurry more with the sermon."

It takes a min- ute to remember that she means professionally and not relatively. LE There are 13 branches of the Business and Professional Women's clubs in Saskatchewan.

BUNDESEN, M.D, IDEAS ABOUT GOITER People are often confused about goitre because they think of it as a single, definite disease. The 'word itself simply means an enlargement of the thyroid gland but, as a mat- ter of fact, there are several kinds of these enlargements, some much more serious than others, and all demanding different management. It is well known that ipdine is used 'in the treatment of goiter but most people do not realize that it is also helpful in deciding just which type of goiter is present. Normal oid Now iodine is used by the normal thyroid ' in making the secretion which this gland forms. But, when iodine is given, the normal gland reacts to it very differently from one which is diseased. For this rea- son it is 'important in diagnosis. During the first few hours of the administration of the iodine, the normal' gland takes up the iodine, but very little of it is stored. Of course, the thyroid gland needs a small amount of iodine regularly in order that it may form its secretion. In simple goiter, in which the only abnormal condition present is the enlargement of the thyroid gland, the iodine is taken up and retained during the first 24 hours it is administeréd. When, in addi- tion, there are toxic symptoms, such as rapid heart-beat, increased sweating, nervousness, and frrit- ability, the thyroid takes up the iodine rapidly during the first four hours it is given and then dis- charges it into the blood. Treatment of Goiter Recently, radioactive iodine has been employed in the treatment of toxic goiter. The radioactive iodine is taken up by the thyroid gland and, following its use, the goiter diminishes in size. However, this preparation has not as yet been em- ployed for a long enough period to know its exact effect or the ulli- mate results of its use. It has been found effective in treating cancers of the thyroid gland in those cases in which cancer cells have been carried by the blood from the thy- roid gland to other parts of the body. Other preparations useful in tox- lic goiter are thioracil and pro- pylthiouracil, These drugs also re- duce the activity of the thyroid gland and lessen the symptoms of the toxic goiter. In some cases, they will even bring about a cure. How- ever, in most instances, they are ployed : only to reduce the sever- ity of the symptoms and to allow building up of the patient so that operation for the removal of the thyroid gland may be undertaken with safety. When enlargement, of the thyroid gland occurs, immediate examina- tion by a physician is important to determine the cause of the enlarge- ment; then the most effective treatment can be carried out. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS E. H.: How can colic be cured? Answer: Colic: usually .does not occur after the third or fourth month and is due to overfeeding, underfeeding, or feeding of the wrong kind of food. The diet of the child should be carefully adjusted. During an attack, a small injection of two ounces of water should be given into the lower opening of the bowel and heat applied to the ab- domen.

GLAMORIZING Buying jar of good cleansing cream should be on every woman's shelf of beauty aids. * + CONSIDERING the enormous output of cosmetic laboratories -- the beauty business is one of Uncle Sam's largest industries--it is not surprising that the shopper's mind is confused when it comes to select- ing a cream or lotion. Glass cases and counters are full of them. And it really doesn't matter much; they're all good. They all serve the same purpose, soothing, lubricat- ing, freshening. Creams, of course, are of different consistencies. The perfume that ap- peals to one customer may not ap- peal to the next one. For cleansing purposes, a cream should promptly melt, become thinner when applied to the flesh. This type is easily re- moved with tissues leaving the skin clean, only slightly oily. Some manufacturers of such creams are offering a supplementary skin lo- tion to complete the cleansing pro- cess and te remove the oily film to give the flesh that fresh, pinky ton- ing that is a good base for make-up. e are non-cosmetic aids that Beauty Preparations By HELEN FOLLETT 4 * help to keep the face clean. Com- plexion brushes, for instance, with bristles that do not mat down when the brush is wet. Little pink paper handkerchiefs with hem stitched edges to use in place of tissues; they look prettier on the dressing table. Squares of cotton for applying lo- tions. A magnifying mirror should be a part of every woman's good looks equipment. If she spots a blackhead she can Use the mirror so that the extractor can be manipulated prop- erly. This little instrument can be bought at any drug store. It is of metal; at one end is an open circle. Place the circle over the dark dot, press lightly. There is no danger of digging into the flesh as happens when one operates with one's. finger nails. After the removal of blackheads the skin should be laved with a sa- turate solution of boric acid--one teaspoonful of powdered boric acid dissolved in a cup of warm water. The Experts Say 6 By KAY REX an, n Press Staff Writer Prt y Aug, a Yue are the parents who teach their child- ren how to swim--not only is it a good sport, but often it is a means of avoiding a drowning tragedy lat- er on. Pointing a warning finger at the number of summer drownings an- nually in Canada, health and wel- fare department officials say a little time and a little practice he- forehand could prevent such heart- breaks. For your own sake, learn to swim; and for the sake of others, learn approved methods of life-saving and artificial respiration," say the experts, When planning on going for a swim, first of all get someone to accompany you.. Stay out of the water if exhausted from fatigue, or from any other cause. Avoid bath- ing within one hour after a meal. Don't go in bathing when the body is cooling after perspiring. Avoid bathing altogether in the open air if, after having been a short time in the water, there is a sense of chilliness with numbness of the hands and feet. When taken with cramp when swimming, the Royal Life Saving Society offers the following ad- vice: Keep calm and, turning on the back, rub and stretch the af- fected limb. If seized in the calf of the leg, turn up the toes, streighten the leg, and stretch the muscles; apply friction and kick the surface of the water until they relax. Health experts warn families to take along a supply of first-aid ma- terials and medicines when thsy start off on.that samping holiday. At a cottage the following artic- les should make up the kit: a zlin- ical thermometer; first-aid dress- ing, including stelilized gauze for wound dressings, gauze bandages to hold dressings in place and a roll of adhesive plaster; alcohol for use externally to relieve the pains of strains and bruises; aromatic spir- its of ammonia (one-half teas- poon in water, for faintness); bor- ic acid (one teaspoon in a glass of water for an eyewash); phenol ointment for external use in treat- ment of small burns; tincture of iodine; oils of cloves for toothache; le milk of magnesia or mineral ol This is the season for enteritus which health and welfare depar:- ment officials warn is the fourth ranking cause of death of children under two years of age. In order to guard her baby against the disease which reaches its peak between August and Oc- tober each year, the mother is urg- ed to maintain sanitary conditions about the home. Bottles and nipples and all for- mula and feeding utensils should be sterilized. Infants should be given a clean place in which to play. Avoid ex- cessive heat on hot days by limit- ing clothing and giving repeated sponge baths. Decrease food during warm wea- ther and increase fluids. - THIS AIN'T PEANUTS Accra,.

Made in two layers, it's a cool and sparkling green on top and red Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood (AP) --~What will the world look like in 1960--if there is a world? That speculation is the quest of Producer Lester Cowan, who plans a movie about America of the fu- ture. Some time ago, he assigned Ann Ronell, his wife and a com- poser ("Who's Afraid of the Big, Bad Wolf?", to sound out savants and planners on an optimistic view of the world two decades hence. She has just compiled her findings with the following predictions: "There will be much more adult education. It will be comparatively painless, at home through educa- tional films on television. This kind of evening will replace bridge. "Your home will be furnished with mood-color buttons, Press the button and the color scheme of your home will be re-lighted to some- thing more in keeping with your momentary mood." As for women, Miss Ronell, cur- rently scoring * "One Touch of Venus" and "Blondes Up," remark- ed: "Women are so progressive that you can't possibly predict the progress they will make by 1960." An ominous note if I ever heard one. She encountered pessimism among some interviewees, particularly one physicist who accused her of im- pertinence. "Why?" she asked. "In assuming there will be a world in 1960." Not Mason Type This may come as a shock to you, but James Mason isn't the James Mason type, I mean that Mason in real life doesn't much resemble the arrogant, dame-slugging character in which his public identifies him. When. I took tea with him, he seemed soft- spoken, solicitous of his wife's con- dition (pregnant) and generally as normal as a movie star can be. The Masons live in the plushier district of Beverly Hills. Upon en- tering the place, you encounter a variety of the famed Mason cats, When the tea-was brewed and the cats cleared out, I asked the actor if he were put out at being pegged as the "James Mason type." "It really doesn't bother me," began Mason, "Actually," I hdve played only four such parts in some 30-odd pictures. "There is a type of fan who con- ceives of a player in a standard type of cliche. I am not interested in that type of man. I don't care if the so-called fans see me in something different and say, 'nyah, he stinks." I have always figured I would be able to find some kind of acting work." The Masons said they were ap- palled by the conduct of the New York fans, the extremely vocal and active pack of-celebrity chasers. "They're terrible" exclaimed Mrs. Mason, the red-headed actress- author, Pamela Kellino. "They have no appreciation of good films." The long-range Mason plan is to make films. on both continents. He'll make "The King's General" here after the Enterprise film. "Take Chances" Frank Capra has this advice for Hollywood in its time of stress-- "take chances."

SALADA ICED TEA TIPS FOR TEENS Surprise! Here's a girl who wants to be popular with girls: "I have been reading your &r- ticles, Most girls ask why boys don't like them. My difficulty is slightly different. Girls don't like me--really like me, I have plenty of dates with boys, but when girls give parties, I'm not invited. I'm a high school senior, fairly attrac- tive, but far from a beauty." One of the leading causes for icicles between girls is--boys. Steer clear of other girls' dream-men. Don't even steal the boys':atten- tion when you're together in a group and don't dance cheek-to- cheek with another girl's date if you want her friendship, A real friend doesn't flirt with her pals partner even if he's as handsome as Peter Lawford in technicolor. Don't compete too obviously with other girls. Avoid bragging about your dates or continuous chit-chat about your clothes, hair-do, etc. Show that you like girls by in- viting them to your house after school to do homework together, listen to recordings and have a sandwich, Ask several girls who know each other to drop in after a school game. Plan an all-girl movie party or a hot dog roast or picnic. Youll have to cultivate 'their friendship at first, but be casual | Girl Likes Girl By ELINOR WILLIAMS about it--not too insistent. Begin by sharing: your smiles with girls; don't save them all for boys. Let other girls shine, too.

(For party game suggestions, send a stamped, self-addressed ene velope to. Elinor Williams at this paper.) observed that movie bigwigs have never complained so much about poor theatre business. "The only solution to slow busi- ness is to take chances," he de- clared. "If you try something new, it might turn out a turnip; but it also stands a chance of making a lot of money." Capra said the current Hollywood trend is unfortunately toward the standard pictures which are surer at the box-office. Paramount has nixed his long-planned "The Flying Yorkshireman," because it is a fantasy. He is still looking for his next production. Sir Ralph Richardson wants to do a western! That's what he told me on "The Heiress" set. However, his horse opera ambitions will have to wait until next year. He'll have to return to England after his cur- [rent film because he works here on an expense account and gets his pay in England. Things are picking up at Para- mount." Next month will see both Hope and Crosby back at work. Bob starts "Easy Does It," with Rhonda Fleming, and Bing does "Diamond in the Haystack" with Barry Fitz- gerald. Frank Sinatra as a caveman. Of course, it's all a dream which will take place: in "Take Me Out to the Ball Game." The sequence will end with Frankie (in a bear skin) over Betty Garrett's shoulder , . . Humphrey Bogart told Celumbia he would be able to save $5,000 on his first independent film, "Knock On Any Door." How? No practical jokes, answered Bogie, who has participated. in many a costly gag. Ray Milland is being chided for taking a suspension at Paramount for refusing a role. After viewing some of the pictures he had to do after "The Lost Week-End," one wonders why he didn't stage. a "site down sooner. on the bottom. It tastes good and itL A NLL looks pretty.
