PAGE SIX .THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE THURSDAY, JULY 24, 1947, | BEAUTY FOR YOU - Gardening has Beauty Perils By HELEN JAMESON Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how does your garden grow? Also, how is your back holding out? Look at your hands. What about your complexion? Is your hair sunburn- ed? If you are a bit dubious about these matters, you'll be spending hours at some beauty shop getting repairs when the leaves begin to fall. It is barely possible that you'll never be quite the same woman again.. Hands can stand so much abuse and no more; then they look old. The complex- ion that carries too heavy a coat of tan gradually becomes coarse of texture, Hair that has been sun- burned may remain discolored. Pulling weeds is something that should be done with gloved fingers. A squatting position will not strain the muscles of your back, nor will it cause. abdominal muscles to go slack, as will the stand-up-bending pose, If you must bend, bend at the hips, not at the 'waistline. The hips are natural hinges, were meant to serve. Keep the legs rigid, and throw the. entire. torso forward. Such little habits help a woman to hang onto the youthful silhouette. If you do get your hands grime- laden, add cornmeal to the suds when washing them, and apply a soothing lotion immediately after- ward. Wear a wide-brimmed garden hat. It will protect your hair from the color-changing rays of the sun. It will shade your face so that your eyes will not suffer from the strong sunlight that causes squinting. It will keep freckles from lodging on the back of your neck. As no wo- man ever. sees the back of her neck, she never gives it a thought. It should have a moment's cream- ing during the bedtime beautifying season. Never use soap and water im- mediately before going out of doors or directly after coming in, espe- cially if your sacred complexion is sensitive, Apply a light cream; let it remain on as long as you can. An enthusiastic gardener seems to have no thought of time. She'll go the chances are, The enthusiastic gardener has no thought of time, wv * right on digging and fussing," no matter how tired she may be. She should remember that fatigue bugs are poison to the human system. Over-fatigue causes chemical chan- ges In the internal organs, inter- feres with digestion, takes away ap- petite, Have fun, Mary, and let's hope your garden gives you great Joy, but don't sacrifice your health and your good-looks for it. There are benefits, of course. Be- ing out in the fresh air creates good circulation. It makes for rest- ful sleep. There's nothing more soothing for a nervous system that is out of kilter. Just take it easy, that's all. And do your beauty duties. Clever homemakers work out space-saving ideas; covers, storage cabinets, bedroom closets. Best ideas on paper submitted to the Canadian National Exhibition will pin $100 prize. Entries close August st.

BUNDESEN, M.D. CAUSE OF ASTHMA UNKNOWN MOST of us take breathing for granted and so go about this most important business of our lives without giving it a thought. But the patient with asthma knows what it is to fight for breath. Sub- ject to the recurrent attacks for difficult breathing, he literally gasps for air, getting what little he can in wheezing, panting breaths. The not known, although in many cases the attacks are due to oversensitiv- ity of the patitnt to some food which he eats, or to some dust or pollen which he breathes in, or some substance with which he comes in contact. Emotional -Disturbgnces According to Dr. Alex Epstein, of Bern, Switzerland, emotional dis- turbances often contribute to the beginning of asthmatic attacks. Often the relief of such emotional disturbances may require the ser- vices of a psychiatrist, that is, a physician trained in the treatment of mental and nervous disorders. Nose and throat disorders also are important, contributing causes of asthma. It formerly was the custom, in the treatment of asthma, to carry out various surgical procedures such as the removal of the ton- sils, but it was found that this of- Vten tended to make the attacks worse, Infections in the sinuses should be cleared up when they are present, but operative measures should be avoided if possible. Change of Climate Some patients with asthma are benefited by change of climate, par- ticularly to a warm, dry climate, but these represent only a small percentage of those who have this condition. According to Dr. Epstein, many asthmatics have a condition of al- kalosis, that is an increase in the amount of alkali in the blood and tissues. In such cases, the giving of an acid substance, such as phos- phoric acid, over a long period of time, may result in definite im- provement. Lack Certain Substances Dr. Epstein also found that cer- tain asthmatics were suffering from a lack of calcium or lime, the vita- min C, as well as riboflavin, which is part of the vitamin B-complex. In such cases, t! ing of ca' cium preparations and vitamins in large amounts may be of benefit. In all cases' of asthma, an ef- fort should be made to determine if the patient is sensitive to any par- ticular foods, dust, or pollen, and of course in such instances, the patient skould be kept out of con- tact with these substances. Various drugs are helpful in re- lieving the attacks, such as epine- phrine and ephedrine, as well as new preparations known as bena- dryl and pyribenzamine. Of course all such preparations should be utilized under the difection of a physician, Public and high school students may earn holiday money by coming out on top in the Public Speaking contests at the Canadian National Exhibition.

Suez MONTHLY FEMALE WEARNESS 2 This fine medicine is very effective to relieve pain, nervous distress and weak, cranky, "dragged out" feelings, of such days--when due to female functional monthly disturbances. Worth trying! | LYDIA E PINKEAN $ VEGETABLE coMPOUND exact cause of tsthma is GLAMORIZING -- Hot Weather Footwear By HELEN Feet must be well pedicured if you wear sandals and playshoes. File the FOLLETT nails carefully, then apply polish. LJ This is the time of year when special attention must be given to the little footies, Trot around all day over hot pavements and they are likely to protest. Toes will twinge, soles will smart and, unless you are an earth angel, you will feel grouchy. as Do you know that each little pedal has 52 delicately articulated bones? Unless you select correctly designed and properly fitted shoes you won't be able to march along the beauty road. You'll get fur- rows between the eyes. When feet hurt, you hurt all over. Sandal Season This is another sandal season, and that's just dandy. Those nude summer versions give lightness and glamour to the foot for every cos- tume, every occasion. They are of hygenic value because they keep the human trotters air conditioned. They should, of course, have firm, flexible leather soles to give proper support; that is important for open types and the more closed patterns. * A higher-riding look is apparent in some of the newest summer mod- LJ] \ els, harmonizing with full skirts, Sometimes the illusion is created by the use of front straps, often by T straps. The ankle strap creates the high, smart effect; it' may cross in the back; then they'll look cute coming and going. Medium Heel : When you wear your tailored suit, select a shoe with medium heel; that is suitable, and what the shoe designers order, You can have high heels for dress wear, if you like, though chiropodists continue to cry down the stilt, as well they should, since they throw the body out of balance, have a deplorable effect upon the bones of the foot and the muscles of the legs. But, if the women want them, they will wear them, and there's nothing to be done about it. For play and casual clothes there are sandals of all colors. The most popular one is the strong san- dal in white, with low platform leather sole. But if you go in for these styles be sure your feet are well pedicured. File and shape toe- nails carefully; then apply your nail polish. Women Investigators Search : For Missing Clergymen By R. 8. SUMMER CALES At Amen House, in the shadow of 8t. Paul's, I found detectives who are considerably stranger than fiction. They are women in cool summer dresses. They are patient but in- exorable, They track down not the criminal but the meek and unag- gressive in black clerical cloth. They could call themselves "the bureau of missing parsons" but they are in fact on the staff of Crockford's 2,000-page Clerical Di- rectory--the Who's Who of the Church. The key to their job is the ap- pendix of more than 270 names in the current Crockford, in which the editor agonises: "Every effort has been made to trace their pres- ent whereabouts but without avail." This is what the staff of Crock- ford's told me about their work: "This year's record appendix of missing parsons is due to wartime scattering and changes. But there are more than 100 persistent cases. Every effort is made to trace them, Our work is really detective work." Together we Investigated the case of the missionary who ten years ago walked into the Booth Bird Museum at Brighfon, deposit- ed six or seven biscuit tins of valu- able butterflies he had collected in the Philippines, Java and China and announced: "I may not come back. If you do not hear from me after two years e I am dead and the collection will be yours." The other day the museum staff began to set up the collection for exhibition. "We. never heard a word," they said. 5 But without moving from the top-floor room, with the City roof- line all about us, we followed the missionary step by step to Central Africa, Lusaka in 1940 to Ndola in 1940, back to England and the Agricultural Youth Hostel, Bodicote, Oxfordshire, 18 months ago. There we paused for the mo- ment, baffled. But when I left Amen House 1 left in the hands of the special in- vestigators of Crockford's the Strange Case of the Vanishing But- terfly Collector. TIPS FOR TEENS. -- Looking for a Job, Smarty? By ELINOR WILLIAMS When you come right down to it, school is a lot of fun--you can dress as you please, get in on all the latest fads and act pretty much as you want to. You know, the class cut-up, the school big-wheel or the life of the party. But once you go job-seeking, it's 8 different story. Lots of high school boys and girls tell us they've had trouble getting even a part« time job. Could be they've gone about it in the wrong way, so here's & suggestion straight from the peo- ple who do the hiring. Nobody wants to hire the boy in jeans, obviously in need of a hair cut, or the bare-legged girl in a soiled, initialed raincoat, with her hair pinned up in a kerchief., When you apply for any job, wear neat; appropriate clothes and see that you're at your best from shoes 'to hair pinned up in a kerchief. When scuffed shoes back there with your | school books. The world you're try- ( ing to enter is a grown-up one, Mind your manners when you apply--and when you're working. Chancés for a good position or ad- vancement depend on the impres- sion you make. Save the jokes for your spare time, as well as those blue jeans. And by the way, you'd better replace them with a hat and gloves, too, if you're a city worker. Here's a tip for future job-seek- ers: don't forget that a school re- cord follows you close as a shadow. Employers consider conduct as well as grades, so make them both good while there's time. If you hanker to depign dresses, tinker with mo- tors or become a nurse, take as many related courses as you can in school and try to get some real ex- perience as well. You see, there's a lot'more to getting a job than Movie Column By BOB THOMAS Canadian Press Staff Writer Hollywood, July 23 -- Attention Larry Tierney! Rudy Vallee is mus- cling in, i Armed with a megaphone, Vallee was an idol of the bathtub gin era. Now he wants to sport a gat, but, unlike a present-day crooner, only on the screen. He would like to play the law-breaking side of fllm mur- der stories. : "Yes," he said, "I would like very much to play tough roles, And I know I can look tough. "Why," he exclaimed, "I often scared my band with this puss." Around the Lots : John Garfield got around $150,000 for his role in "Gentleman's Agree- ment," but nothing for being an extra in "Daisy Kenyon." He seemed to be enjoying himself more on the latter . . . the Angela Lansbury-Pet Shaw two-some is getting steadier . . Enshrined in the little red schoolhouse at 20th-Fox is a picture of Republic star Roy Rogers. Edgar Bergen has an answer to the autograph nuisance. He hands out phoney money. It's "Charlie | McCarthy mazuma--illegal and very tender" , . . Dan Duryea, going from one color epic to amother, has a method for keeping the two charac. ters straight. In "River Lady" he wears a moustache . . 3 Donald O'Connor was sweating out his first preview in four years, "Something In The Wind." He has no ground for worry--he's the bright spot in the film . .. can you swallow this? Van Johnson and Hume Cronyn are col- laborating on a murder yarn, "The Man Who Died at Capistrano." Brief Review "The Bachelor and the Bobby- soxer" (RKO--95 minutes) is sur. prisingly good fun, despite its rather forbidding title. It starts slowly, but once you get used to the idea of Cary Grant courting Shirley Temple ( if only in jest), you will be amus- ed. Of course, Myrna Loy gets him 'at the end, but only after some hilarious episodes. For the best Bride's Budget, the clever bride-to-be will get $100, plus a complete trousseau and wedding outfit.

(AMPBELLS FLOUR FOR LIGHTER - PIES, CAKES AND MORE TENDER PASTRIES WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT -- College Songs at Wedding? College Songs Especially Appropriate At Their Wedding Reception Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My flance and I met when we were both undergraduates at the same college. (During the war we met again when we were both in service overseas . . . and now soon we are to be married!) We are very "sentimental" about our college meeting, and we would very much like to ask the small orchestra we are having at our wedding recep- tion to play the Alma Mater and other songs of our college. Would this be proper, or would it seem silly? If proper, when should they be played? 8.C. Indeed it's proper to have the orchestra play college songs . . . this is often done, and in your case, is especially and gloriously per- tinent! Provide the music if there is any doubt that the orchestra may not be familiar with it. Sometimes college songs are played by the or- chestra (and sung by the members of the wedding party, or by the guests in general) between toasts at the bride's table. And sometimes "game tunes" of a college are play- ed and sung . . . the "here's to" cheer-songs, with the names of the bride and groom filled in after the "to", How To Announce An Engagement In The Simplest Way Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I have just become engaged. and no one knows of the engagements except my flance's family and my family. There will be no party given by my parents to announce the en- gagement . , . they are planning to send formal announcement to the two local newspapers, This news- paper announcement will not be made until I receive my engagement ring, which is being made from a special design and which I am to have quite soon. Must I wait until the public announcement is made before I tell my relatives and close By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECEMAN friends that I am engaged? (It's terribly difficult to keep the secret®), AIMEE, It's just the reverse, Aimee . , . you should tell the Happy News to those it concerns most, your rela tives and your intimate friends, be- fore your parents make the formal newspaper announcement which is for the general public. The correct procedure, natural, simple, dignified, is this: When you and your parents have decided on the date when th announcement will be published, you tell your news to those rela- tives and friends who live near enough to be told by word of mouth, and write notes to those who live at a distance . . . telling or writing each one that the announcement is to be made on such-and-such a date and asking "Please keep the secret until then!" Your fiance fol- lows the same procedure. It is ne- ver necessary to have a party of any kind to announce the engage- ment . .. but it is always necessary that relatives and friends of both flancee and flance be given the hon- or of being told the news in the proper way. (And incidentally, print ed or engraved engagement ane nouncements are never in good form or in good taste.) In Best Form For Invitations and Announcements . . . "Junior" Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My bridegroom-to-be uses "Jr." after his name; his father, for whom he is named, is living. Which is . better form on our wedding invita. tions and announcements . . , "Jr.", or, "as I have been advised by my engraver, "junior"? I should think it would be the form my flance cus- tomarily uses with his name, "Jr.". And if "junior" really should be used. shouldn't it be capitalized, like "Jr."? REN.
