iN PAGE ELEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU - What About Your Voice, Lady? By EELEN JAMESON The girl who is hoping for ro- mance to"come into her life had better remember that a sweetly compelling voice is an element of charm, that a rasping, high-pitched one is likely to repel sentimental ideas on the part of the male who would a-wooing go. Many a suitor has put on his hat and departed for the last time because the dear creature of his desire has pierced his ear drums with little shrills and squeals that set his nerves on Heaven help any human creature who must live in the same house with a woman who shouts. Her violent vocal efforts may not mean that she is ill-natured. She has just developed a bad habit. Therc are househoids in which every- body shouts; life: therein is not tranquil. Love may dwell there, but veace does not. Well-mannered individuals are not loud talkers. Yelling is just something that one does not do. For the good and comfort of the human ear a woman should en- .deavor to cultivate a pleasing voice. It isn't often the case that a speaking voice is naturally nerve- disturbing; the trouble is in the way it is used. Too much volume, usually. Or speech is to rapid. Or an inarticulate gabbing goes on in which one catches a word now and then and the rest is a jumble of sounds. The nervous woman is likely to have a high-pitched voice. When always under tension, the vocal cords tighten, do not function nor- mally. . A good rule is to think before you speak; know precisely what you are going to say, so you won't be one of those uh-huh-ers. You know what we mean. Some peo- ple can't seem to get their vocal engines started. Listen to your voice. Regard it critically. Read aloud. Practice changes of tone and inflection. You may discover vast possibilities of charm. 12-2% C) Sodicate, In Listen to your voice--read aloud. 4 Voices reflect character, in a way. The gentlewoman speaks softly, with gentleness, never gives way to quick, impulsive speech. The one who pauses often is likely to be a timid soul or afflicted with that dreadful inferior feeling from which many human beings suffer. She who is given to over-empha- sis is trying to dramatize herself, steal the spotlight. She batters your ears with® emphatic sounds. She is not a restful companion. It is not necessary to take les- sons in elocution to learn to speak well. The chief fault of the av- erage woman's voice--next to too much volume--is its flat, unmu- sical quality, its monotonous range of tones and slovenly enunciation. GLAMORIZING Setting Hair in Pin Curls By HELKN FOLLETT For a quick-drying set, moisten hair with good-quality witch hazel before rolling up in curls * * Setting the hair with pin curls is a 'job with which many a girl wrestles before going to bed. It sel- dom takes less than twenty minutes, may take forty, depending upon the length and thickness of the hair. The results are worth it. It might be well to pass on in- structions as given by a famous hair gtylist. You section off a square ir, usually about an inch, de- pend on the size of the curl you want. ss the comb through the strand 'so the shafts are smooth and close together. Wind the hair around your finger from the scalp out, until you have a neat circle, Flatten this against your head, anchor it with bobby pins. If the hair is 'thick usé large ones; if thin, the smaller pins will be better, less likely to drop out during sleep. For Tiny Curls If tiny curls are desired, you can start winding at the ends of the hair. 'This is best if you have bangs, would have the ends turn under and a le undulation across the foréhead. Don't fail to put on your * wave cap or hair net. Soft, silky thin hair may wave better if metal curlers are used. But it isn't easy to sleep with one's head covered with hardware, and that is why the pin curl prevails. If the hair is short, start making the little coils on the left side, part- ing from the crown to the nape, holding back the hair with a tuck comb. Work from crown to nape line, then part off another strand. Do the front locks, the bangs last. If you would have wide lines in a long bob, start at the back, making two or three rows running from ear to ear. Every curl should be the same size as the mext one. Then, when the hair is combed, there will 2 an unbroken undulation from one side to the other. For the feather cut, start from temple to temple, follow that line to .the crown, then start at the nape line and work upward. If you want your hair to dry quickly, dampen it with good qual- ity witch hazel then roll up in pin curls. Hollywood © Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood--(AP)--In more ways than one, George Raft is the screen's most retiring star. Here's his admission: 1. "I'm going to retire to a house in the south of France and give up Hollywpod unless a particularly good role comes along." 2. "I've based my whole career on playing quiet tough guys, The real tough guys are gentlemanly and quiet. It's the noisy type you don't have to worry about." This retirement talk of the noise- less Raft is something we've got to get used to. He keeps bringing it up, but then studios keep an- nouncing pictures for him. However, he now declares that after he fin- ishes his current. "Hounded," he'll head for the quiet life in southern France. Oh, yes--he'll also produce and act in a picture over there. It's called "Incident in Cairo" and he plans to film it in Cairo, Tunisia and France. It will be done first- class, he said. Raft's retirement talk stems from his philosophy. Said he: "I'm a sentimental guy. People say of an old actor, 'He was onge a big star.' I don't want to have that happen to me. I went through it once as a dancer. It hurts." He figures he can live cheaply in France. "I wouldn't' have to buy 35 suits a year, as I do here," he re- marked. Capsule Review, "The Paleface" (Par) i a" happy holiday package. Bob Hope is pain- less Peter Potter, a frontier dentist, and Jane Russell is Calamity Jane, hunting smugglers of guns to the Indians. Both do admirably in this cheerful nonsense. The smart script could have had a few more laughs, but you can't have everything. A Physician | Advises You By HERMAN A. BUNDESEN, M.D. PENICILLIN DUST There are a number of different ways of administering . penicillin. For example, it may be injected in- to a muscle, it may be taken by mouth, and now it. may 'even be breathed in, in the form of a mist or dust. An extensive study has been car- ried out by Dr. Krasno and his co- workers, on more than 350: patients, using penicillin dust and, under his direction, a simple apparatus for ad- ministering the dust has been de- vised. Cold Symptoms Of the 350 patients, about two- thirds had infections of the respira- tion tract, and the majority had symptoms of a cold. The great ma- jority of the remainder had infec- tions of the lungs. A few were given the penicillin dust as a preventive against infection, before and after operations. The lung infections treated wer® bronchitis and the in- fections that accompany bronchiec- tasis, a condition in which the tubes in the lungs are dilated or strgtched. The patients breathed in th§ peni- cillin one to three times a da#. Tests to determine the number germs present in the nose, throat, and lungs showed a great reduction fol- lowing the use of the penicillin dust. Studies of the blood showed that the penicillin was absorbed into the blood, the amount in the blood being great enough to have an active ef- fect for a period fof five hours fol- lowing the treatment. Occasionally, reactions . to the penicillin occur in the form of skin rashes and some irritation of the throat. Of the entire group of patients treated early, more than a third were greatly improved, and anoth- er third were moderately improved. This method of treatment seems to have particular value in bron- chiectasis. Improvement usually can be obtained within ten days to two weeks, and can be maintained by continued treatment at home, The treatment with the penicillin dust cannot be relied on for han- dling more serious infections, such as pneumonia. In such cases the in- jection of penicillin into a muscle or its use by mouth is also advis- able. The penicillin dust treatment is economical, and hospitalization is not necessary in carrying it out. The patient getting such treatment can go about his business without loss of time.. Of course, the treat- ment must always be carried out un- der the direction of the physician. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS E.L.: What causes the face to be- come 'red and hot, together with nose bleed? This seems to occur every day. Answer: Such a condition possi- bly is due to some disturbance of the circulation. High blood pressure may be a factor. A thorough study should be carried out to determine the exact cause. "Wife Preservers PE Never put blankets away for any length of time without first dry ¢leanin, them.

CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: On several occasions you have been so very kind about answering questions I sent you that now, when I am planning the most important occasion of my life, my wedding, I am coming to you again for your good and friendly advice, I am planning to be married in the near future, when my fiance, who is'a junior officer in the Navy, will be given his leave. I want to have the simplest kind of wedding in my church; my only sister as my only attendant, maid_of honor, and the bridegroom's brother as his "best man; no ushers, since the only guests. will be .the members of our immediate families and five or six close mutual friends of ours. My father will give me in marriage. But, Mrs. Beeckman, like most girls, I have always dreamed of wearing a "real" wedding dress, a long, white bridal dress. However, I feel that this would, with such a very simple and very small wedding, be irregular and inappropriate, and I feel that I should wear a street- length' afternoon dress. My mother thinks that it might not be out-of- order for me to wear a long white dress, but I guess she is sweetly being influenced by what she knows I yearn to do! What should I do, please? Dorothy S. Happy I am to make you and your "mother happy (your bride- groom, too, I know!) by being able to tell you 'that you should make your dream come true by wearing a "real" wedding dress at your wedding. And I hope you'll wear a dream-like finger-tip veil, too! The fact that your wedding is to be so simple and so' small, that' you are to have only one attendant each, is no reason why you shouldn't be dressed like a "real bride." Your wedding can be--will be, I know--lovely and appealing and memorable . . . in your church, you dressed in bridal attire, your bride- groom in uniform, your father to give you in marriage, your sister and the bridegroom's brother as wedding attendants, and with those most dear to you and your bride- groom with you on this great occa- sion. And with your mother, in the first pew on the left, beaming hap- pily as you come up the aisle wear- ing your dear-to-your-heart wed- ding dress]. ; CORRECT FORM OF NOTE . TO TEACHER Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I haye recently entered my small daughter in a school here, and this school demands a note explaining each absence. I have been informed by the school that this note should be addressed to the child's teacher. Will you please suggest the correct form for such a'note? And should I sign tris note "Mrs. Thomas Brown?" Mother A correct form for this kind of note is: Dear Miss Marsh: Because of the storm on Monday and the fact that Joan had a slight cold, I thought it wise to keep her at home Monday and yesterday.

Eng- land is beginning to.take Buckingham Palace to task because of the secrecy of about the prince. It is felt that palace officials should disclose more details regarding the royal baby.
