'PAGE SIX THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE .- MONDAY, MARCH 31, 1947 § BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Skin Blemishes Can Be Annoying By HELEN JAMESON ach period of life seems to Py Ton complexion griefs. The individual may be fortunate enough to escape some of them, but the chances are that, one time or another, a woman will look at the reflection in the mirror with annoyance and wonder why such things must be. Some are merely tremendous trifles, but disturbing just the same, Teen-agers, many of them, are afflicted with acne, which is no trifling matter, as it affects thelr spirits and interferes with their social affairs. Specialists who treat such cases are putting grea- ter stress on diet. They are ell- minating fats, even to the extent ot ordering that cream be dele- ted from the daily quart of milk. Adults seldom suffer from this good-looks handicap; they have other problems, Milia, or whiteheads, mar the appearance of the skin, These pead-like masses are caused by the -elosing of the pores. Then the sebaceous oil banks up, hardens and forms a little mound. The correct treatment is to slit each one, full length, with a steril- ized needle, pick out the deposit with the needle point, apply a boric acid solution to the wound. The whitehead will Bot give way to pressure, like pustule, becayse the pore has no opening, fi In middle-age the character of the skin may change. The epider- mal coat is subject to discolora- tions, moth patches or liver spots' with which the liver may have nothing to do. They are the big sisters. of freckles. They often come through exposure to strong sunlight and disappear during the winter season, though just as af- ten they become permanently es- tablished. They can pop out al- most over night. They can sud- denly disappear. They can extend themselves to considerable size, especially on the hands. They will not succumb to bleaching agents. They can be conquered only by the removal of the outer cuticle. Moles, elevated above the sur- face of the skin, can be very dis- The thing to do to prevent wrinkles from coming * bd figuring, As there is a remote possibility of a mole becoming malignant, especially if it is ir- ritaded, it is wise to consult a skin specialist who will remove it in a minute or two by means of electricity. There is no pain or discomfort, no scar, Tiny veinlike marks in the skin are eaused by ruptured ca- pillaries. The electric needle can be used to eliminate them. No external application will have any effect on them. They come to hearty eaters, full blooded indivi- duals with complexions that are inclined to be ruddy, quick to flush. As one approaches the autumn of life, there are wrinkles. The thing to do is to keep them from coming. This you can do through the free use of creams -- plus brisk massage--and the cultiva- tion of a calm, sunny disposition.

Huston, Sr., who is from Toronto, has an important role while his son wrote the screen play, will direct the picture and will ap- pear in one sequence. Double takes will be the thing soon in Sir Alexander Korda's stu- dios with the same film shot in dif- ferent languages. Stars able to speak more than one language will make the same picture for different countries.

OPEN ALL DAY WEDNESDAY 9--6 CLOSED ALL DAY GOOD FRIDAY A Physican Advises You By HERMAN N., BUNDESEN, M.D. TREATING SKIN CANCER CANCER occurs in many parts of the body, A fairly common loca- tion for cancer is on the face, par- ticularly about the nose and eyes, Medical men know most of these skin cancers as basal cell epitheli- omas. Quite fortunately, this type of cancer differs from others in that it does not metastasize. This means that the tumor cells are not carried by the blood or lymph to other parts of the body to set up new growths in hidden and inac- cessible places as is the case with 80 many other types of cancer.' In other words, a skin cancer is most likely to be a local disturbance, which with proper treatment can readily be done away with. They Grow Slowly Everybody should realize "that these skin cancers grow slowly, so it is wise not to disregard a danger- ous growth simply because it seems at the time to be making no parti- cular trouble. Some such cancers may even take years to reach a size from one-half to an inch across. The growth usually begins on a reddened, scaly spot which becomes a little thickened and shiny. The thickening jnay be so slight that it is barely floticeable. The central part of the growth becomes covered with crust and when it is knocked off or pulled off there is some bleeding. Then a new crust forms. There is another form of this tu- mor called a rodent ulcer, It is a destructive growth which occurs mostly about the eyes, ears or nose, If allowed to continue this may de- stroy large areas of tissue. Prompt Diagnosis While skin cancers are not as dangerous as many other types of tumors, they nevertheless should be promptly diagnosed and treated because they can mar the appear- ance to a great extent. However, in treating skin cancers two main ideas must be kept in mind. First, to destroy the growth itself com- pletely and, second, to keep from damaging the surrounding tissues. According to Dr. Jerome P. Web- ster of New York the two main me- thods of treatment are X-ray and surgical removal. The type of treat- ment to be used will depend upon the location of the growth and its extent. For example, if the growth is on the end of the nose, cutting off the growth might cause some deformity. Hence, X-ray treatment would, as a rule, be better. On the Ear On the other hand, if the tumor is located on the ear, X-ray treat- ment may cause inflammation of the ear cartilage which is painful and difficult to heal, Many of the skin cancers may be eliminated completely with X-ray treatment without noticeable scarring. In cases which do not respond to the le surgical removal is employ- Whenever a person has a sore which does not seem to be healing the doctor should be seen without delay. Rest assured he will make an immediate examination to de- termine definitely if the sore is a skin cancer and proceed to treat it accordingly. "Economy? When one has had to work so hard to get money, why should he impose on himself the further hardship of trying to save it?"--Don Herold. "Money and time are the heaviest burdens of life, and the unhappiest of all mortals are those who have more of either than they know how to use."--Samuel Johnson. "Money lays waste cities; it sets men to roaming from home; it se- duces and corrupts honest men and turns virtue to baseness; it teaches villainy and impiety."--Sophocles. Almost Grownup!

Lady Clutterbuck Finds Earnscliffe Is Homelike By KAY REX Canadian Press Staff Writer Ottawa, March 28--(CP) -- In the words of Lady Clutterbuck her- self: "It really wasn't an interview, but just a fireside chat . .." Conversation ranged along a var- iety of topics, most interesting of which was how the wife of Sir Alexander Clutterbuck, British High Commissioner to Canada, likes her new home, The glowing logs in. the fireplace cast a rosy light over the blue- toned drawing room at Earnscliffe, residence of United Kingdom high commissioners to Canada, and the original home of Sir John A. Mac- donald. It's a year now since the high commissioner and his wife and 18- year-old daughter, Anne, came to Ottawa to live. "And it has been like home to me since the moment I arrived," said Lady Clutterbuck. "I had al- ready heard so much about Earns- cliffe and Ottawa frcem Mr. Mac- Donald." (Rt. Hon. Malcolm Mac- Donald, the former British high commissioner, now is governor- general of Malaya). "Your Canada is a wonderful country--we haven't done nearly all the things we want to yet," she continued. And first and foremost, Lady Clutterbuck has yet to see a hockey game, Which she hopes to do "be- fore the winter is over." To Visit Maritimes The next vacation which the family plans probably will be spent in Quebec and the Maritimes, where Lady Clutterbuck is looking forward to hunting and fishing. A trip west last fall left her impress- ed with Canada's size and the var- ied beauties of the countryside, Banff wag "lovely," but then "I mustn't try comparing Banff with Jasper or I might get into trouble," she laughed. "I understand many persons favor either one place or other." Tg er er reports disclosing' that British war brides are 'dissatisfied with Canada have left Lady Clut- terbuck unimpresed. "Naturally they feel strange when they first come over--it is all so new to them," she said. "But all the British brides I've seen are settling down admirably. However I don't doubt that the present lack of housing has a lot to do with making some of them unhappy." Her thoughts often turn to Brit- ain and her relatives and friends over there. "Possibly they're hav- ing a harder time now than they had during the war--when it comes to rationing," she sald. "Theyre rationed on bread now. It's not so much the rationing itself, but what it does to their morale. They've had so much of it and for so long." Lady Clutterbuck, who herself worked with the British Red Cross throughout the war, highly praised the work of Canadian girls who went overseas as members of the Red Cross and St. John Ambulance Association, R.A.F.

"Most women resist a radical change in coiffure fashions," he says, "even women who swoop up a change in dress fashions automati- cally." But today, when dresses, hats and accessories are loudly pro- 'claiming femininity, hair follows suit and falls into line with docil- ity. It's a short or semi-shiort, it's soft loose curls worked in a variety of ways. ; "Coiffures which have been pre- valent in the past look definitely dated" according to Guro. "The pompadour for instance, is out. The strict hair-up with the bird's nest of hair at top is out. Out, too, is the long bushy mane and the top- Soft Natural Effect With the short hair and loose curl comes a soft natural effect--a new simplicity which is a must for the flower, streamer and veil-be- decked spring hats. His own new hair styles fall into line with his long-held theory of studied irregul- arity and he has treated each side of the face differently from the other in the creation of most of his coiffures. In one instance, the hair is drawn gently back and up in waves and held with a small comb. Then the hair is swirled over it, waved across the back and massed on one side. On the same theme, the hair Is drawn around the head in waves from one side of the part and fluff- ed into curls on the other side. Shadow Waves Prevalent Large shadow waves are pre- valent. They insure softness, par- ticularly when the hair is swept behind the ears, a basis of many soft curls, back into a page boy chignon and back and drawn slightly upward into a mass of curls turning up around the face, with the cap portion falling in large loose waves. Any one of these spring coiffures is easily attained and easily pre- served, says Mr. Guro. ing you: (1) The price of every pattern will be 25 cents, beginning with last Friday. (2) From three to five weeks should be allowed for delivery of any pattern ordered. This is the busy season when so many patterns are wanted that this delay is unavoidable, This is, of course, disappointing to many who expect to receive the pat- tern they order in two or three days. A warning about this de- lay was published a few weeks ago but it must have been miss- ed by many who have ordered patterns since. Woman Mine Owner | Held Unique Record Edmonton, March 27--(CP) --Mrs. C. E, Barry of Edmonton has relinquished ownership and direction of the Coal Valley strip mine opened by her husband 25 years ago, She is said to be the only woman personally to have di- rected coal mining operations on the North American continent, Coal Valley is 132 mileg west and 28 miles south of Edmonton. Mrs. Barry took over actual di- rection of the mine in 1940, when her husband died, Officials and employees of the company honor- ed her recently when they pres- ented her with an engraved ster- ling silver tray, A. A. Fraser, superintendent of Coal Valley Mining Co. sald of Mrs. Barry: "Extraction and marketing of coal has been considered a rug- ged, technical industry and reser- ved for men only, yet this woman has attained a record in this in- dustry. We are sure no other mi- ning company on this continent --and we doubt if any other in the world--has been directed per- sonally by a woman." He paid tribute to Mrs. Barry, president and managing director of the firm, for her "friendly per- sonal interest in the welfare of the employees." Mrs. Barry, having sold the company, plans to live in retire- ment in Edmonton. At the din- ner in her honor, two employees, J. T. Lanouette and B, Piscus, who have been with the mine since it opened, spoke in French and English, The mine, which will celebrate its silver anniversary in April, has the most modern coal-clean- ing plant in Western Canada. The plant recently was rebuilt after a fire in 1944.

I have nev- er before sent out Easter cards, but this year I feel an urge to do this, and I am wondering if it would be proper for me to in- clude my husband's name when I sign these cards, (The cards will be sent to his relatives and mine, and to our mutual friends). M.N. Yes, it would be proper for you to include your husband's name in the signature to these cards, and this would give the cards an added welcome as a greeting from your husband too. Naturally he would want to be in- cluded in your Easter greetings, just as he would be included if he were at home. And, to make your cards even more personal, I suggest you add a message of explanation and greeting to the signatures: for example, "From Mary and Donald. Although Don- ald is far away (he is stationed in Germany) I know he will want me to include his Easter greet- ings with mine. So . . . warmest greetings and dearest love to you all from both of us." Special Wedding Problems Dear Mrs. Beeckman, 1. Recently I had published the announcement of my daugh- ter's engagement, and some of my relatives have reproved me for not having mentioned to the parents of my daughter's fiance the fact that I was going to make this public announcement, Was it necessary for me to make a point of talking this over with them? I don't know them very well, but they are very nice people, and of course I don't want to do any- thing that is not right. 2. It is to be a church wed- ding. Do I send invitations to all relatives of the prospective bride- groom? 3. I suppose the wedding would be considered formal, as the bride is to wear a floor- length gown, At this type of day- time wedding, should I wear a street-length dress? I would like to wear a dressmaker suit, prob- ably in black, M.H 1. There is no justification tor your relatives to criticize what you did , . . it was not necessary WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT -- Signing Easter Cards from Both? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN for you to make a point of talk- ing over with the family of your daughter's fiance the fact that you were planning to announce the engagement in the newspap- ers. They would probably take for granted that you would make this announcement. 2, The bridegroom and/or his mother give you the names and addresses of the relatives and friends they wish to have invited to the wedding, and you send in- vitations to these relatives and friends, Also the usual courtesy is for the bride-to-be or her mo- ther as soon as the invitations ar- rive from the engraver, to send at once to the bridegroom's par- ents a packet containing several of the invitations for the parents to see and to save as keepsakes. 3. It the bride wears a floor- length dress, with no train, and a short veil, her wedding is consid- ered semi-formal, and "the mo- thers," the bride's mother and the bridegroom's mother, may wear either floorlength dresses or, if preferred, street-length dresses. But it is not considered proper for either mother to wear a black dress. After the Brush-.off, Shall She Write Him? Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I am a girl of 19, About a year ago I had quite a few dates with a boy, for about two months, Af- ter a while, and for no reason that I could figure out, he stop= ped seeing me, Recently I learn- ed through some friends of his that he is in the army and is overseas. Would it be proper for me to obtain his address through some of his friends, and write a friendly letter to him? Since this boy stopped seeing you and with no explanation and since he didn't even get in touch with you before he went over- seas, I think you will have to be realistic. Even if you haven't his address, he has yours (I judge), and he'll use it if he wishes to. FOR OUR EASTER PRAYER "Grace and Pgace be multiplied unto you" . . .. the beautiful and inspirational greeting expressed by the Apostle Peter in the be- ginning of his epictles. . . is a pray- er particularly appropriate for this year's Easter. Mrs. Beeckman will be glad Should I Do? submitted by rea- ders).

Two-Color Suit Dwarfs Hip Size Smash style hit which tops a dark 'skirt with a light-colored jacket may not have been created for the hippy girl but she can take full advantage of it for figure im- provement. This solves her problem by giving her a light top that magnffies pro- portions, a dark skirt that dwarfs hip size. Another style boon which design- ers make available to the hippy girl is that of placing details at a safe } distance from her hips. Details-- often of eye-baiting color--which _ flag attention away from her hips are placed at the throat, shoulders, waistline and above the elbows, Skirt disguise of hips--long lack ing in fashions--is back in pleats and gathers, released below the waist; in a circular flare that bells out from ihe slender, upper part Toe to conceal the bulge below. Back fullness is often inserted in a sheath of a skirt to hide a hip bulge that needs concealment, Buus, 32KINGST.WEST @ USHAWA eo CREDIT EWELLERS PHONE 389 CONSUMER'S RATION COUPON CALENDAR APRIL CONSUMER'S RATION COUPON CALENDAR SUN. | MON.
