"THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE SATURDAY, JULY 26, 1947 BEAUTY FOR YOU -- What a Hair-Do Can Do for You | By HELEN JAMESON Never within the memory of hair 'stylists have there been offered to the beauty-seeking sisters such a variety of colffures. The ancients and honorables in the pulchritude industry remember when every woe man carried a load of demountable locks upon her head. To appear without these factory frizzlets was to be outside the social circle, When the bob set the world on its ears, the long-haired woman was regarded as a museum piece. When the shingle supplanted the bowl cut, every head was shingled. So it went, Well, there is no sheep-fol- lowing going on now. It's every woman for herself. Now it's "ups-a-daisy" with your precious wool, if the idea pleases you . If not, you can sport the three-inch crop, which is ideal for the silly season. Or you can choose & middle course in the form of a center part and tendrils just to shoulders. Or you can have a ih of fun plotting and planning a design that is all your own. What more can a woman ask? This is style liberty. We have become emanci, pated. The sole requirements are chic and ess. How you get them doesn't matter There are a fe by beauty law-fjakers that will help any woman t0"determine what she should do to her hair. If you ares tired of your bob, and feel that the uppity arrangement just isn't for you, don't forget that between these extremes there are many pleasant possibilities--flowing locks just touching the shoulders, or the Grecian style that places curls or rolls just south of the crown of the head. If you are tired of your bob, and that the up-swept arrangement- ment gives your face more length than you like, you can pull the waves of your pomp slightly for- ward and wear a soft, fluffy bang, or you can break the line in the wind-blown manner. A too se- vere forward line is likely to im- part a brittle look if the features les laid down --Now it's an up-do, if the idea pleases you. * B® 0» are irregular or the cruel fingers of Time have made marks. While straight hair and the door- knob atop abound in photographs of lovely ladies who model for a living, any hair dresser will tell you that the style is no good with the custo- mers. Women still want softness. Curls will always be adored, by men as well as women, "scrubbed up" look --everything high and out of the way, as if one were about to take a bath--is all right for beauties. It is not flattering to the run-of-the- mill girl, and most of us are in that class. They Are All $64 Questions At Toronto Reference Library Every day's work is a quiz pro- gram and the $64 question is rou- tine at the Toronto Reference Library, College St. Questions are asked about everything from the commercial use of cornstalks to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Here are a few of the questions which Mrs. H. L. McCausland of the reefrence room had thrown at her by enquiring citizens Who was Lily of the Mohawks? How long have jibs been used on sailboats? What was the first type of street gas lamp like? Three American warships were wrecked on a Pacific Ocean island in 1880? What was the island's name? Don't expect to find the answers here, because this is not the refer- ence library, Mrs, McCausland an- swered them. Some enquiries relate to books. A woman asked for a book called, "Lay Me Low, Sarab." It turned out she wanted "Les Miserables." Some one else asked for a book on wea- ther but really wanted the novel, "Who Has Seen the Wind?" An absent-minded man was looking for a book with a red cover he once had read. That is all he knew about it. But the reefrence library aides found it for him. Last year the library answered 20,000 telephone enquiries. Librari- ans hunt up the information and cheerfully relay it. Questioners in- clude many foreigners, and English people seem to find their way to the nearest library as soon as thny arrive here. A Physician Advises You By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. CHECK INDIGESTION It is estimated that about half the people who consult the doctor do so because they think they are suffering from indigestion, What they do not realize is that one out of every five cases of so-called in- digestion is due to gallbladder in- fections and gallstones. This disorder cccurs three times as often among women as among men, Though it may be present much earlier, it usually does not begin to produce symptoms--pain, indigestion and the like--until after the patient is past 40 years of age. However, cases of gallstones have been reported in a child as young as seven. Severe Symptoms Gallbladder disease may flare up suddenly with very severe symp- toms or it may cause a milder dis- comfort over long periods of time. When it occurs, the first thing the doctor needs to know is whether or not operation is necessary. According to Drs. William Bates and D. C. Emenhiser of Philadel- phia, there are certain symptoms which indicate unmistakably that gallbladder disease is present, and that an operation with removal of the gallbladder is required. These include attacks of biliary colic which means that there are attacks of unusually severe pain in the right upper part of the abdomen, extending through to the back. Belching, sickness to the stomach and vomiting usually, but not al- ways, accompany the pain, along with chills, fever and an increase in the number of white cells in the blood. Following the attack there may be some tenderness in the region of the gallbladder, with excessive amounts of gas in the bowel and a feeling of fullness after eating, Of course, when such attacks occur, an X-ray of the gallbladder should be taken which may either show the presence of stones in the gallblad- der or that the gallbladder is not working as it should. A mild form of gallbladder dis- ease is known as acute catarrhal cholecystitis. This is an inflam- mation of the gallbladder which al- most defies recognition because the symptoms are neither severe nor clear-cut. This condition comes on gradually with some sickness to the stomach, slight fever aml some pain, in the right upper part of the ab- domen. Jaundice, or yellowish-green discoration of the skin, may or may not be present. Gallbladder inflammation may be a chronic or long-continued condi- tion. In chronic cholecystitis the gallbladder does not empty itself as it should, and this produces symp- toms of indigestion or dyspepsia. This disorder is much more diffi- cult to diagnose than acute inflam- mation of the gallbladder. When a person thinks he has in- digestion he should, of course, have a careful study made to determine whether or not the condition is due to gallbladder disease. Then either medical or surgical treatment can be carried out, The treatment used depends on the type of gallbladder trouble present.

Yet he not only spoils lovely complexions, if they are not given proper protec- tion with oils or creams, but he can burn the precious tresses atop a woman's head. It's grand to run around hatless, to bask upon the beach, to give your hair the air while motoring, but you'd better take care of it, if you don't want it to take on a strange shade by the time the leaves begin to fall, Sunlight, it is believed, benefits the scalp. It takes a whip last to the blood streams. Hair grows faster in the summer than in the winter season. But the color may change because of burning sun- light. Hence the need of a little vig home care at the present time, in summer. LJ Vigorous brushing will stimulate the sebaceous glands, the purpose of which is to exude oil to keep the hair healthy and lustrous. The firm bristles of a brush will sweep these exudations further along the shafts, After the brushing, give yourself a three minute scalp rub. The night before the shampoo, part the hair at various places, ap- ply mineral oil along the partings, using a small brush, a medicine dropper or a pledget of cotton to distribute the lubricant. If the hair is dry, use brillian- tine or some other reliable hair dressing after the shampoo. Spray it on with an atomizer, or spread it over the teeth of your comb. Your wave lines will be fluid and even, your topknot will carry a gloss. The use of mineral oil on the scalp will loosen dead skin scales if they are present; the shampoo will wash them away, Hair, like the complexion, thrives on oil. Manhattan Melodies By PAT USSHER' New York, July 26--(OP)--It's tourist time in Manhattan and you can find out-of-towners any day of the week admiring the formal gar- dens and fountain in Rockefeller Plaza, riding the buses along River- side Drive or gazing over the city skyline from the summits of its towering buildings. One of the chief attractions for pleasure-bent holiday-makers is New York's restaurants, which cater to a tremendous range of na- tional tastes and offer everything from the swanky elegance of the Colony to the rough-and-ready ser- vice of the counter joints. Worth Selling On West 52nd street, near Sev- enth Ave, a flight of stairs takes you up to El Flamenco, a Spanish restaurant whose paella is superb. Super Duet A good tip is to go there when you have plenty of time, order this dish and then enjoy the succulent odors as it cooks. It's guaranteed to pro- vide an appetite. On the Avenue of the Americas (which everybody still calls Sixth Ave.) near 52nd street you'll find the Faisan d'Or, a restaurant and bar notable for its good martini cocktails and its spaghetti. If you're looking for fish, there are scores of :excellent restaurants. Seafare on Eighth street in Green. wich Village, near Washington Square, is among the really good ones, Autumn Plans The theatrical lineup on Broad- way shows no change from last week but there's plenty of planning going on for fall productions. Joshua Logan, who directed the successful comedy "John Loves Mary," has been signed to direct "Mister Rob- erts," a dramatization by Thomas Heggen of his popular novel about life in the backwaters of the United States Navy. "Mister Roberts" is ex- pected to be ready for a pre-Broad- way tour in October . . . Barbara Everest, British stage and screen star, has been signed for a part in "We Love a Lassie," a Scottish comedy which the Shuberts plan to produce. The title originally was to have been "The Scuddievarigs." . . . Henry Adrian is trying to sign Paul Muni, the. movie character actor, for the lead in Edward Percy's melodrama, "The Shop at Sly Cor- ner," a hit on the English stage: Six-Foot Brunette Hollywood Queen Hollywood, July 26--Green-eyed Grace Tattu, a six-foot brunette who sniffs at the very words, "short men," today began her reign as Miss Tip Topper of America, queen of all the people who have to stoop to get under chandeliers. There's quite a few of 'em, too. Their first annual convention in Hollywood drew 300 six-footers from all parts of the U.S. and Can- ada. To qualify as Tip Toppers men have to be 6 feet four or over; women six feet, Miss Tattu barely made it. Chief judge at the Tip Toppers' own "Atlantic City" was Earl Car- roll, who hires "the most beautiful girls in the world" His helpers were Edith Head, who dreams up clothes for movie queens, and Rose- mary La Planche, who's an old hand at this beauty contest busi- HESS. She was Miss America in 1041. But Miss Tattu is just about the tallest beauty queen they'd even seen. Carroll practically had to This puts the "QO" in OOmph!

She was used to obstacles like that, she said. : The runners - up were Alma Schmidt, 6 feet one, from Pitts. burgh, and Leni Mazuren, six feet, from Vancouver. Miss Tattu is a local girl. Her exact measurement is six feet, one- half inch--vertically. - Horizontal- ly she varies this way: Bust--36, waist--26, 'hips--38. She wears three-inch heels, making her al- most six feet four most of the time. And she has a terrible time find- ing clothes to cover all of her. So do all the other 300 delegates. That's one reason they decided to hold a convention in the first place. "We hope to make a loud enough noise to influence manufacturers," explained President Don Shoe- maker. "We want beds long enough to stretch out in, telephone booths you don't have to collapse in like an accordion, and clothes designed for us stratoliners." Miss Tattu sald she'd just settle for cute shoes--size 9. MOUTH CLEANING Since sweet, sticky foods, left to ferment around the teeth, are known cases of tooth decay, dental experts remind Canadians that mouth cleanliness is imporant for general, as well as oral, health. If it won't interfere with one's nutritional requirements, the au- thorities suggest that a salad, or even a stalk of celery, be eaten af- ter sticky foods, to clean the mouth. Or, one may take a desert consist- ing of firm, raw fruit. This will leave the mouth in good condition. New Gay Applique [ Here's a bright future for your kitchen.

Pattern 7405; transfer of 4 WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT -- . * * Ll Giving a Housewarming Party? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEBCKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: "At long last" my husband and I have moved into our new house and we would like to give a Housewarming within the next few weeks, Is it taken for gran- ted that at a housewarming the whole house must be shown, or may we close off the rooms which are not completely furnished and which probably will not be for some time? 2. How soon before the House. warming should the {invitations be mailed? And for thy invita. tions way we use our Informals, which have our names (Mr, and Mrs."--) engraved in the center of the first page, and may I write our new address in the lower right corner? 3. Would you advise that we give the party on Sunday after- noon? If so, what are the usual hours? 4. Must the refreshments be on the elaborate side? What would be appropriate? 6. I have no service. Must I stand near the entrance door to take the guests' wraps or to tell them where to put their wra? Deborah 8. 1. At a Housewarming {t_ is taken for granted that all" the house will be shown, But don't worry that some of the rooms are not completely furnished . . . complete the details as much as posible, and show them "as is." Certainly friends will unaerstand this necessity and you don't need even to mention the "incomplete- ness." \ 2. The invitations should be mailed about two weeks before the party, not later than ten days before. Your Informals are per- fect for the invitations, writing your new address in the lower right corner. (And if you have a new telephone number you might write that also, with the invita- tion on the inside pages), 3} 3. Sunday afternoon, four to seven o'clock, is the usual time for a Housewarming---most con- venient time for the majority of guests, 4. The refreshments may be as simple as the usual tea-menu for those hours: tea and/or coffee and/or punch; small sandwiches with simple fillings, and perhaps made of different kinds of breads; small cakes or cookies; and perhaps such "nibbly" acces. hories as potato chips, popcorn, nuts, candies, 6. No, you must not be the one who stands at the door to direct the guests where to put their wraps, Your place, as hostess, is in the living-room, where you and your husband stand to re- ceive the guests after they have "rested" their wraps, My sugges- tion is that you ask several wo- men relatives or intimate friends to act as deputy hostesses,. one for each hour or half-hour of the party to direct the guests where to leave their wraps, and two or three to "show" the house to the guests, Only a "Thank You" Necessary To Acknowledge Sympathy Dear Mrs, Beeckman: My sister died recently, and I am at a loss what to say to peo- ple vho express their sympathy to me, I find it terribly difficult to talk about my sister, whom I loved dearly and deeply, but still I don't want to seem unapprecia- tive of kind words. Grace All you need answer to these kind words is the really-apprecia« tive "Thank you" you feel. Or, even more graciously, add the name, "Thank you, Sally." Or, if you wish, "Thank you, Mrs. Clark, You are very kind, and I appreciate it." People with even a grain of sensitiveness will sense that it is difficult for you to say more, or to speak further about your beloved sister, Movie Column By BOB THOMAS Canadian Press Staff Writer Hollywood, July 25--(AP)--Swing music is definitely on the decline. This is the consensus of five top band leaders, all of them proficient in the jive idiom. The bandmen, indulging in a tor- rid jam session for "That's Life," were questioned on the issue "Whither swing?" and only vibra- phone king Lionel Hampton attested that hotter music gets a 50-50 break with the sweet stuff in cur- rent demand. Colleague Louis (Satchmo) Armstrong said the trend is away from swing. Other com- ments-- Charlie Barnett: "The public doesn't go for the hot stuff any more. Everything I play has to be danceable." Tommy Dorsey: "We have to play sweet so they can dance. If they want to just listen, they'll go to a Juke box instead of a ballroom." Benny Goodman: "They still go for swing, if it's good. But most of it isn't very good these days."
