THURSDAY, JANUARY 1 6, 1947 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE _-- - PAGE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU-- What's Your Li ne In Talking? BY HELEN JAMESON "She's lovely to look at," remark- ed a' man, "A real beauty. She i dances divinely. When she walks she seems to to float through the air. But when ghe opens her mouth to sreak you want to make a quick getaway. She is an I-I girl. '7 did this, I went there, I think thus and so' And you think, 'So what?' 'She'll tell you all about her family and her dog and her travels, and not a single word is of the slightest interest to anyone but herself. Some poor guy will fall for her good looks, and die an early death from boredom." Well! Let's think about that. Don't most of us talk about oursel- ves too much? Not the slick lady; ghe doesn't. She starts a conversa- tion with "How are you? How have you been? What are you up to?" giving the other person a chance to blab along happily and decide that she has a most interesting and compelling personality. Easy as pie. Simple as that. Wunnerful! Conversationally, women belong to certain types Their subjects usually follow certain patterns. We have the gay, sparkling, vivacious girl--and she's fun if you don't have to listen to her for too long a time. She has a quick wit, and there's no telling what she is likely to say. One of her own type will enjoy being with her, but the dull soul won't be ahle to keep up with * her, may not even understand her. ©he is an "TI - I" girl * + @ bored to tears with old ladies who clack about remote periods. There is the intellectual tyre. Her opposite is the long-winded droner. If she is elderly, she may Serious as all get-out. All right with individuals of the same mental at- English Vicar Urges Country Pubs on Scots Writing in the "People's Journal", Dundee, Scotland, Rev. Douglas D. A. Lockhart, Vicar of a Brighton, England, parish, pleads that Scot- land follow the example of England in establishing country clubs where the tired walker can be sure of drinking his pint of beer in clean, pleasant surroundings. The English vicar writes: "In England the country pubs are pleas- ant halting places for the tired walker. He can be sure of drinking his pint of beer in clean, pleasant surroundings. There will be a cheer- ful social atmosphere, for to the English countryman the inn is not a boozing-den, but a club in which he can find company. Its patrons know how to behave; or, if they don't, are asked to leave. His Experience "Recently I arrived in a large and very well-known Highland village and wanted a glass of beer. People came in, filled up with drink as though they were cars at a petrol pump, and went out again as soon as possible, Nor could one blame them, for it was a filthy, gloomy hole, and no chairs or tables were provided. "If Scotland hopes for a flourish- ing tourist traffic, there must be & radical reform in these matters. "In Switzerland or the Tyrol, af- ter a stupendous walk or climb, you can usually find a little chalet- restaurant miles from the nearest village, run by some peasant farmer. Here you can sit on a terrace, en- joy the view, and eat your sand- wich lunch, while the chalet will sell you hot soup, beer or wine, and coffee. Glamorizing . Vain About Your Shoe Size? By HELEN FOLLETT : ters like these. She Reaches London He Goes to Montreal British war flancee Constance Whitehead, of Bradford, England, stepped off a plane at Montreal, wondering if maybe her sweetheart, Arthur Grosvenor, of R.R. 2, Ker- wood, would meet her. He hadn't promised to, but love--they say-- has a sort of second sight in mat- For once love, apparently, was wrong. Art didn't show up. Constance wasn't dismayed. After missing one train at Montreal, she came to London, feeling confident of meeting fiance Art here yester- day morning. But no Art. She sat in the Canadian Pacific Railway waiting room at London more than seven hours, waiting for somebody to come, and at last somebody did, Art's mother, Mrs. Albert Grosvenor, and his brother, Ivan. But Art wasn't with them. Finds A Way They told the eager British girl that Art had had ideas about love too. Confident that "love would find a way," he had set out for Montreal to meet her. But for once love proved blind. Now, they explained to Constance, her fiance must be somewhere "be- tween here and there." Despite the long delay, the future Mrs. Grosvenor, Jr. smilingly dis- closes she likes Canada, is' grate- ful to the C.P.R. restaurant staff for looking after her during a long period of waiting, Of course, she points out, there's still something to look forward to --meeting Art. 30 Grandmothers Throw a Gay Party New York, Jan. 11--(AP)--Those hardy perennials, the high-stepping old ladies of the original Grand- ma's Night-Out Club, have thrown their first party of the new year. About 30 grandmas, ranging in age from the mid-60's to 90, parti- cipated in a round of youthful hi- jinx at Wednesday night's party, held at the Central Branch Y.M.C. A. in the pleasantly daft borough at Brooklyn. "Wo00-w00-w00-w00," chanted the white-haired merrymakers as 70- year old Mrs. Josephine Berman hopped and skipped in a ceremon- ial Indian dance while dressed 'in Indian princess regalia. "I can do the jitterburg, rhumba, samba and you name it," said Josie Berman. She's a great grand- mother who says she started danc- ing five years ago, a year after her husband died. Mrs. Josephine Layton, 72, who plays music on a collection of black ebony bones, was a feature of the old timers "floor show". There were some youthful ringers from a theatrical school in the show but most of the performers were auth- entic grandmas. . The ladies then danced with each other and with a couple of grandmas who crashed the gate.

Why in those days, when mosquitos used to bite my toes, it wasn't their buzzing that kept me awake--it was their hicc- uping!

"North Shore Kiddies Get Yule Mail Late Franquelin, Que, Jan, 11--(CP)-- Children of this small North Shore settlement along the St. Lawrence some 230 miles below Quebec City eyed with anticipation bags of Christmas mall today as the steam- ship North Voyageur docked with the first boat load of supplies re- ceived here in over a month. The 1,200-ton Clarke Line freight- er, which later continued on further down the Gulf to Godbout, Trinity Bay and Shelter Bay, brought Franquelin food, hardware, cloth- ing, cigarettes, 43 cases of liquor in- tended for Yuletide consumption and 37 tons of oats for horses haul- ing wood in the area. The supplies were met by three trucks of the Quebec North Shore paper company which carried them to the local general store for distribution. Through Ice Fields Continuing her arduous task of cutting a channel through massive ice fields so the Voyageur can get supplies to 16 villages along this Slimming 2-Piecer northern shore, Ernest Lapointe is off Clarke City some 75 miles east of here, and is expected to get alongside the wharf today or Sunday. * At Clarke City yesterday, villagers lined the dock struggled against the massive ice blocks to clear a path into the harbor for the North Voyageur, Among the freight destined for Clarke City is the latest snow- mobile model, a variety of food- stuffs, from turkey to chop suey, and a, general assortment of mill and household supplies. The 50 Franquelin families mak- fig up the village population thrive on the pulp and paper in- dustry. They are proud of their the ice breaker as the Lapointe small village with its quaint little wooden church. The only non- Catholic resident, C. G. Borcman, manager of the Quebec North Shore Paper Company plant, at- tended Christmas mass along with fellow villagers. Typical Village Franquelin has a school, general store, an electric store, a dairy, a post office and a 12-bed hospital attended by ome doctor. Telegraph and mail are the means of com- munication with the outside world. Incoming mail is dropped by air- plane or delivered by sea twice monthly. Outgoing mail in winter is mush- ed 10 miles to Baie Comeau by dog sled. Once a week recreation is provided at the village's communit$ centre where curling, skating, hockey, skiing and dancing are fea- tured. The people of Franquelin actual- ly were short of little during the Yuletide season as snowmobiles were able to make the trip to Bale Comeau and bring back Christmas food supplies. Diana Barrymore To Wed Tennis Pro New York.--(AP)--Diana Blythe Barrymore, 25-year-old actress and daughter of the late John Barry- more, and John R. Howard, 23, Oakland, Calif., tennis professional, have obtained a marriage licence. They did not specify' the place or date of the ceremony.

Basil Jellicoe once proposed to start a college for training Christ- |. fan publicans. His idea was that keeping a public-house was a very special type of Christian vocation; and thete is a lot in it. "My ideal pub would be a cosy sort of place, furnished with tables and comfortable chairs. People could sit there as long as they liked without being expected to buy an- other drink. How To Punish "Drunkenness, bad language, and spitting would be punished with instant ejection, persistent offenders would be forbidden the pub for a period until they had learned how to behave. "A man could bring his wife and children, and, if he needed food, it would be supplied. You could be as private as you wished, but there would also be general conversation in which you could join. Occasion- ally of an evening, a piper or fid- dler would come in and play to the company, and a plate would be pased round for contributions to make it worth his while. "My publican would refuse to serve beer and whisky simultan- eously to any one customer, for that mixture is a Scottish depravity which cries out to be eliminated. "Inns which persisted in being dirty and disreputable could be told to reform themselves or forfeit their licences. "'Drink' would then cease to be a problem in Scotland. It would be- come the sacrament of fellowship that it ought to be." PUBLIC BENEFACTOR! Chicago--J. P. Fanning, whose business never interferes with any- body's sleep, came out today with a two-plank platform for keeping the country wide awake. He advocated: 1. Formation of clubs advocating a seven-night, 56-hour sleep week. 2. Pass laws, if necessary against staying awake too long. "Just look what. happened to Na- poleon, a great shunner of sleep," he added. "A sleepy person has the temper of a veteran drunk." (Fanning is general manager of the National Association of Bed- ding Manufacturers.) 6-29 / Colorless nail polish, used to cover sil- ver candlesticks ard metal ash , may | prevent tarnish. For street wear, select a comfortable shoe with a medium heel. t 3 * LET us suppose that Mrs. Shep- per is out stalking shoes. She tells the clerk the size she wears. He iooks a bit dubious, brings out the measuring device, tells her she needs a size larger. She is insulted. Doesn't she know her size? She chould! Shé has been wearing that size for years! Too true! And the little toe of either foot is folded under with de- formed nails due to pressure. Be- cause her feet are unccenfortable she looks as if she were walking on eggs. Her body assumes an ugly pose because it is thrown out of balance. The mid-section has in- creased in size because poor pos- ture brings sagging muscles, All this because of vanity and stub- bornness. Can you beat it? IlI-Fitting Shoes Ill-fitting shoes not only inter- fere with locomotion, and cause awkward movements, but they can lead to permanent damage. The contour of the foot will change. Twingeing corns and calloused spots will appear. * * It often happens that the foot spreads with the years. An entire- ly different last may be called for. So don't be arbitrary about the size. Size seven is the average worn by the American girl, Her mama used to pack her trotters into a 4-B when she was young. The younger generation is wiser. Substantial Soles Select shoes with substantial soles. Leather soles mold themsel- ves to the feet, are not likely to lose shape. They grotect the feet from co.d pavements. Cold feet make red noses, invite sniffles. Open shoes are not suitable for blustery weather. For street wear a shoe shouldl be practical; it can be just that, still be decorative, have style. The correct shoe provides sup- port for the waist of the foot. It is wide enough to permit free movements of the toes. The heel should be of moderate height with fairly wide base, if one is to walk in ccemfort, Spikes are for parties. Pioneers Cherished Privilege of Voting Citizens today apparently do not appreciate their privilege of voting. Polling places have been established in convenient places and in many cases transportation is available for the asking, but with all these fa- cilities it is hard to get out a re- presentative vote. It was much different in the pio- neer days. In 1848 the only polling place for Brooke Township was at Sandwich, near Windsor, and a group of men made the round trip, around 200 miles, by foot, over trails. There were no voters' lists and each man had to carry the deed of his land and his latest tax receipt to prove his right to vote. The journey required two days' travel, one day of rest and two more days for the return trip. These pioneers took their voting privilege seriously and their efforts made the foundation for our ad- vances and present standard of living.
