Bleaching Golden Hair By HELEN JAMESON Dyeing is the bYeautician's most difficult work. * % * The worst heads are those on which onie dye has been used over another. Mixing chemicals can create hues that nature never dreamed of--taupe, green, even pur- plish casts. Hair can 'be dyed successfully. You can have titian, warm brown tones, or lovely chestnut shades. But these miracles do not come about by casual selections of color- ing agents or by hasty treatment. Dyeing is the most diffieult work done by beauticians; some of them refuse to do it because women are often disappointed with the results. A few grey hairs can be touched un here and there at home, but cel- oring the entire growth is an ex- pert's job. Manhattan Nelodics. ' New York--Let it be recorded that at least one British play, Ter- ance Rattigan's "The Winslow _ Boy", has found favor on Broadway this season. Two\previous London productions, *Duet for Two Hands" and "Under the Counter", proved resounding flops in Manhattan. But if the pub- lic follows the lead of the critics, "The Winslow Boy" wHl do much Jo restore Britain's somewhat wilted framatic prestige here. The Rattigan drama is away to a good start at the Bmpire Theatre where Alfred Lunt and | Fon- laine teamed successfully last sea- jon in the sime author's "O Mis- lress Mine". "The Winslow Boy" is the case history of a 13-year-old naval ca- flet who was dismis from the paval academy at Osborne shortly pefore the first World War on the ds that he stole and cashed a five-shilling money order. His fa- ther, convinced of the boy's inmo- sence, fights the case against the mtrenched power of Government snd the Admiralty, and {finally plears his son's name. The cast shows excellent team- work under the direction of Glen Byam Shaw with Alan Webb ex- selling as, Mr. Winslow and Frank Allenby as the family's lawyem The curtain went up y night at the Ethel Barrymore The- ptre on "This Time Tomotrow" but the critics are still puzzling over the 'meaning of this play by Jan de Hartog. The author introduces a girl dying of tuberculosis and a young research scientist and his el- derly chief, both seeking a cure for sancer. Aided by hypnosis, halficinations, thunderstorms and blackouts, de Hartog's characters discuss the na- ture of death and of love and try to find out what keeps alive the girl, who according to X-rays of her pondition should be dead. The up- shot appears to be that death is not the end for man. Something that has been claimed before in less con- fusing language. San Jaffe as the elderly scientist heads a cast that does its best with unwieldly roles In this Theatre Guild produc directed by Paul Crabtree. Two other openings this week were F. Hugh Herbert's "For Love Or Money", at Henry Miller's '(hea- tre, an agreeable and sophisticated pomedy, and "Twin Honeymoon", by 8. Smith, a wispy piece of -humor nonsense, at the Royale.

By KAY REX Canadian Press Staff Writer Oitawa, Nov. 6--(CP)-- Autumn has ushered in the apple season. They may be' eaten raw, cooked with meat, or in any number of puddings--perhaps that's why they are known as the most versatile fruit on the market. If Mother's looking for an apple dessert there's a new recipe for Apple Up-Side Down Cake, destin- ed to make the family's mouth wa. ter. Ingredients: One-quarter cup butter; three-quarters cup brown sugar; three apples; one-quarter cup butter; one-third cup white su- gar; one egg; one-quarter cup mo- lasses; one cup flour; one teaspoon baking powder; one-half teaspoon soda; one-eighth teaspoon'salt; one ginger; one-half teaspoon mon; one-third cup boiling water, Melt one-quarter cup butter in baking-dish. Add the brown sugar and cook together. Pare and core apples. Cut each apple in half to make two thick rings, Arrange rings of apples in butter and sugar mixture. Cream one-quarter cup butter. Add white sugar and cream well together, Add well beaten egg and molasses, Beat thoroughly, Sift dry ingredients and add to mixture. Lastly add boiling water, mixing quickly. Pour over apples in baking- dish and 'bake in moderate oven for 40 minutes. Serves six. And for a dinner dish apples may be used with baked ham. Ingredi- ents: One slice uncooked ham (about 13% inches thick); one tea- spoon dry mustard; two teaspoons vinegar; two apples; onehalf cup brown sugar; one teaspoon butter. Trim rind from ham, Mix mus- tard and vinegar together = and spregd on ham. Slice apples thinly and spread in layers on ham, Sprin- kle with brown sugar and dot with butter. Bake in a moderate oven unl ham is tender--about 45 min- ul Buying "by grade" is one thing the consumer section, Dominion de- partment of agriculture urges every housewife to do if she wants to get the most for her money. In its free booklet "Don't Guess, Buy by Grade," the department yr- ges all Canadian consumers to tion make a point. of buying aiost of the more commonly used foods by grade. The packages in which these foods may be purchased carry tne mark, or it may be stamped right |i on the food--as it is on beef or poultry. However, unless the con- sumer knows about these grade- marks and the regulations concern- ing them she doesn't get full benefit Tran the sumers who "buy by grade" have an important part to play in maintaining the standards of grad- ed foods sold in Canada, say de- partment officials, Inspection of graded foods is carefully carried out by department inspectors, but occasionally the consumer may find she has bought a food not genuinely |' believed to be the grade designated. In such cases she should either re- turn the product to the person from whom it was bought, or report the matter to the department inspector. HOUSEHOLD HINT If you haven't developed your own system of ironing dresses, try this method: Iron the sleeves first, then the blouse part. Next, iron the skirt. Iron the hem up and down, never around the width of the skirt, Iron the collar and any trimmings last, If your skirt has a lot of pleats, iron the hem and the whole skirt on the wrong side first. Then put in the pleats on the right side, with a press cloth on the right side over the fabric to prevent shine, A piece of tissue paper under the pleats will prevent its imprint on the skirt. Press in several pleats at one time, pinning them wn if necessary. Always iron with the grain. Iron into guthers, never across them. Close a zipper before ironing. Place & thick towel under the zipper and use a pressing cloth over it. Double thickness sections such as collars, cuffs, pockets and facings, should be pressed on the wrong side first, "= PHE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE A Physician Advises You By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. CHRONIC EAR INFECTION UNFORTUNATELY, there is no way of telling how many peo- ple damage their health by neg- lect and failure to seek medical aid at the p-oper time. Their number is certainly legion and among them must be counted the many victims of chronic otitis me- dia. Chronic otitis media simply means long-continued infection f the inner ear. Its two. main ymptoms are deafness and a dis. charge from the ear which per- gists over a long period of time, Preventable Disorder » In the vast majority of cases, otitis media is a preventable dis- order, and when it is present it usually indicates negligence, be- cause every case of chronic mid- dle ear infection starts as an acute infection, and, in this stage is most easily treated. A continuing discharge from the ear may indicate that the ori- ginal infection was so severe that it persisted in the middle ear or extended fo the bone of the mas. toid area, which is in back of the ear, Scar Tissue Another cause is the formation | of scar tissue in the middle ear. Still a third cause .is what is known as cholesteatoma, which consists of a mass of dead tissue cells in which crystals of a sub- stance known as cholesterol are deposited, This' mass may cause pressure on the surrounding tis- Ws and contribute to the con- inuance of the infection. Infection jn the nose and the upper part of the throat also may contribute to the contiguance of the infection in the ear. Contributing Factors In treating chronic otitis me- dia, first of all, efforts must: be made to get rid of the factors which may be contributing to the infection: This may requiré oper- ative treatment in certain cases, such as removal of the adenoids. After this is done, : the next most. important thing is to keep the ear "clean. - The discharge should be removed regularly and completely by washing the ear with a mildly antiseptic solution. Some physicians advise putting hydrogen peroxide into the ear'to loosen up the secretions. The more discharge that is present, the more frequently" will cleans. ing be required. _ Using a Powder. : As the discharge dries up, it is also advisable 'that a powder be put into. the. ear, such as boracic acid with iodine. It is not believ- ed that the use of pénicillin and sulfonamide. products, are of amy: Ag particular value after the: chro) ic' stage has been reatheéd thoy both may be very valuable d ing the earlier acute stage, -If the patient's hearing re- mains good, surgical treatment is not urgent. However, if the pat- ient-is rapidly losing his hearing, surgical treatment may be neces- sary at once. The type of surgi- cal treatment to be employed will, of course, depend upon the extent of damage to the, tissues. Recurring Discomforts If left untreated, chronic otitis media always tends to get worse and to cause many recurring dis. comforts in the way of headache, giddiness and a feeling of sick- ness at the stomach, While the hearing defect may be slight at first, it will become more and more marked if the disease Te- mains unchecked, In view of its serious conse- |: quence, there should be no need to emphasize the great import- ance of preventing it altogther by proper treatment of any acute Pretty Please of / Anne Adams If she had Three Wishes, this frock would be first!

HEALTHY WEIGHTS Declaring that there is direct re- lationship between health and weight, the Department of National Health and Welfare advises every- one to find out how they "stand on the scales of life."

And for that matter, it was done hundreds of years ago. So what? The outline of the eyebrow should conform to the shape of the eye if it is to be a flattering frame to soul windows. When it is a mere thread, scoots far upward at the far end, the eyes appear smaller. When plucking, work from upper and lower border so the eyebrow will remain along the bone ledge just above the eye socket, where it belongs. Lovely Eyelashes Even though lovely eyelashes are appreciated beyond bold and pre- cious gems, they receive little care or attention unless the growth | starts to thin out, and then | is much bawling and lamenting. Twice a day they should be bath~ ed with warm water, then with cold so that the circulation of the | blood streams will keep brisk.

WHAT SHOULD [ DO ABOUT -- Choosing Christmas Cards? By MRS CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Christmas cards this year have gone all-out for Christmas! They salute the 1947 Christmas with a triumph of the richest and most vivid 'colors'and designs ever to ap- pear on Christmas cards. Whole- heartedly and high-heartedly they shout "Three Cheers for Christ- mas!". . . no hinting around about it. Elaborate or simple, expensive or inexpensive, this year's cards look like Christmas cards, are the lovely and inspiring cards that should tri- umphantly blossom forth in this post-war Christmas. BRILLIANT COLORS: Christ- mas cards this year have a superb eye-appeal, a glorious outburst of color. Rich colors, vivid colors, gay and buoyant colors that rejoice in the messages they will carry free friend to friend. New color repro- duction processes are available this year, and obviously Christmas card manufacturers have overcome short- ages of fing paper (even parchment is back), printing facilities, and de- corative materials. And 'tis said that psychologically we're all yearning for brilliant colors, after the res- trictions of wartime. And these thrilling colors we've been given, particularly the traditional Christ- mas colors of luminous red green, are something to cheer about! DESIGNS: Everyone of you will find many, many designg to your own taste and to express your own personality, You'll find all the tra- ditional Christmas designs, usually glorified by the use of beautiful col- ors. The story of the Nativity. The Mother and Child motif. The Three Wise Men with their searching fa- | ces. The Shepherd and His flock. | The Herald Angel. Reproductions of religious paintings. The celebration of an old-fashioned Christmas. The country home standing silent by starlight; sleighs, snowmen, Christ- mas trees, candles, lighted on Christmas trees or on a lovely man- telpiece, Christmas stars. - Notice particularly that in the designs of this year's cards there is a definite trend toward taking one simple Christmas item and giving it great significance, in the dramatic treat- ment of the design and in the strik- ing adaptation of color... one gleaming red Christmas tree ball, for example, one brilliant star, a small, appealing angel, a Christmas wreath, a Christmas bell on gold or silver paper. Always popular, and seem- ingly even more so this year, are the "old days" type of Christmas designs, the sleighing, home-com- ing, party-going type of nostalgic cards . .. and 'the long' length of the ladies' dresses show the "New Look" of "when Grandmother was & girl"! = ACTUAL MATERIALS are used. On many of this year's cards actual materials are used. To add sparkle there is often a glittering abundance of inset rhinestones. Glittering se- quins decorate the Christmas tree. Paper bells hang on windows that are trimmed with real lace. Clrist- and | mas candles are made of red satin, | the flames of yellow yarn. Snow- | banks are made of sparkling bits of | cellophane. Glittering metallic cloth | is used for costume details. Gold and | silver stamping has returned. A | wartime process developed for print- | ing aviators' maps bn silk and ray=- on has been used to achieve repro- { ducticns of many rich details. And [git paner, appropriately rich and | radiant, has returned! RELIGIOUS CARDS. Beautiful things have been happening in the werld of religious cards. You wil. find a wide and appealing variety of these inspiring cards. Most beau- tiful and impressive are the cards that carry Biblical quotations, short and of special appeal at Christinar- time. Many of these are ied in manuscript-style, after t fashion used by medieval monks, and with elaberately illuminated initial' le*- ters, These cards are hand-stencil- ed in glowing colors, with golds and reds and greens predominatin: And very good news... many cf these cards are on beautiful parck- ment stock, which gives them an even more beautiful and traditional personality. Most beautiful of all is the one that triumphantly carries the benediction most inspiring this year: . Glory to God in the Highest And on Earth Peace | Good-will to Men. BENDIX!
