PAGE SIX THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE TUESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1947 BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Choice of Ornaments By HELEN JAMESON : "Think how much of the world's industries are devoted to the business of making Woman dec- yrative and attractive! Looms produce exquisite fabrics for her to carry on her svelte back, Dress fesigners search museums for de- signs for her costumes. Men dig for diamonds for her to place apon her fingers. Gardens and forests provide ! er with delicate perfumes. Beauty shops thrive by the thousands to give profes- sional attention to her hair, to teep her complexion youthful gfnd lovely. Cosmetic chemists supply her with the synthetic blush, nail glow, the dozens of items for the toilet table, If Woman should suddenly de- eld» that she doesn't care how she looks or what she wears, that she is through with all that, that she would just as soon retire to a vast wilderness and get old and homely in peace, she would throw a monkey wrench into innumer- able industries. But that will never happen. When a woman doesn't care how she looks, she doesn't care about anything, It is her desir. to be decora- tive, but not too much so. She, herself, must dominate her attire, When she arrays herself in glad rags, she must know when to stop. To be over-dressed ruins the picture. Jewellery calls attention ot it- self more definitely than any other detail of dress, be it real or synthetic. An elaborate necklace makes pathetic the neck that has become wrinkled and yellowed with age, just as showy rings are no help to hands that have aged. The woman who is afflicted with large ears makes a mistake when she wears jewelled pendants. There are ornaments suitable for elderly women, but they must be selected with the utmost care, must be of delicate character, A pretty arm can carry an ar- ray of bracelets, but even the prettiest hand should not bear 'more than a single ring. 4dea is decoration, never display, The If Woman should retire to a vast wilderness, innumerable indus. tries would suffer, > +P except perhaps on the grand so- cial occasion. Few women realize that brooches, clips, necklaces and earrings can seem to change the contour of the face. A clip worn at the centre front, has a slender- izing effect upon the round face, while two clips, one at each side of the neckline, draw the observ- er's eye in a horizontal movement across the wearer's face and neck, giving an impressioa of more width. Choker necklaces increase the width and roundness of the face, add fullness at the neck, Numer- ous short strands of beads are helpful if the neck is thin and the face long. No woman who is cursed with a double chin should wear them. Fashion Flashes ; NEW EMPHASIS is on the three-piece suit. Handloomed avoollen, in a chrome yellow and «deep black narrow and wide line plaid, is used for the high-button. «ed jacket of a smart suit, with matching topcoat of the bold 'plaid.

INDIVIDUAL Styled PERMANENTS and HAIR WAVING Phone 2583W ISOBELL"S BEAUTY SALON 43 Colborne East Uperated by Joyce Almond A Physician Advises You By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. USE DDT WITH CARE DDT, the powerful insecticide developed during the war, is an excellent thing but, because of the very gualities which make it valuable, it may also be danger- ous when used "hit or miss." Recently there have been many reports telling of the widespread spraying of DDT in efforts to check infantile paralysis. Since we are not even sure what organ- ism causes infantile paralysis, or whether any of the insects affect- ed by DDT carry it, such attempts would seem to be more in the na- ture of wishful thinking than an intelligent attack. They may al- lay pu.nic, but they are not very likely to stop th: spread of the disease, Indirectly ,they may con- tribute to its spread by causing ordinary precautions to be ne- glected and, at the same time, they may menace health in other ways. Kills Many Insects DDT is a substance which kills many insects. Therefore, it has a great deal of value in the elim- ination of insect pests, particu- larly in agriculture. Large areas have been spread with mT solu. tions to eliminate mosquitoes which carry malaria. It has also been widely used to get rid of parasites which infest human be. ings, such as body lice, This substance has been care- fully studied and a nu:nber of in- teresting things have been dis- covered about it. For example, it has been noted that DDT stimu- lates the growth of certain plants, such as potatoes. On the other hand, it may be injurious to cer- tain other plants, such as canta- loupes and other melons, It would appear, too, that it aids some in- sects directly and some indirectly. For example, certain parasites live on a number of insects, The DDT will kill off these parasites, thus checking destruction of the insects, Certain Insects Growers of peas have found DDT effective in ¢ iminating cer- tain insects .which damage the peas. The green pea vines are stored and often fed to dairy cows and meat animals during the win- ter months, The question has arisen, therefore, as to whether or not the DDT left on these vines may not have some injurious ef- fect on these animals and upon the persons who drink the milk or eat the meat from these ani- mals, Five cows were given these pea vines over a perfod of from 118 to 141 days. None of the ani- mals showed any toxic or ill ef- fects from the DDT which they received from the vines. Animals which were fed milk from the the cows grew as well as those which received milk from cows which had not ingested any of the DDT, However, it was found that the milk from the cows re- ceiving the DDT contained 15.8 parts per million of DDT. The substance was also found in the tissues of the slaughtered ani- mals, DDT in small amounts does not produce toxic 'symptoms. How- ever, deaths from the ingestion of .large amounts of DDT have been reported. Thus, i. would ap- pear that care should be taken in the use of this insecticide. The one 'mportant rule to follow is never to use more DDT than will accomplish the desired purpose. Certainly widespread spraying of this substance, when no good is to be accomplished, is hardly worth while and may constitute a menace to health.

By HELEN FOLLETT After creaming your face and neck, pat on a little skin freshener, Often enough you have seen a lovely pink and white face and a yellow - neck. How come? The poor neck didn't get any of the cosmetic care that the complexion gets at bedtime. The creaming stopped just north of where the Adam's apple would be, if a wom- an had one, And there is something else to be mentioned; a neck can look older than anything. If it starts to sag a bit, nothing is done about it. An observing woman will notice that, when she holds her head up, the softness disap- pears, Benefits of Exercise Beauticians can do a lot for a down-trodden neck, but they stress the benefits of exercise, turning the head from side to side with a strong muscle pull. When they treat the jeck, it is not a perfunctory petting of cream, but vigorous sweeps of the palms of the hands to send blood streams hustling, and to tone the muscles, After that, there comes a five- minute slapping movement. Home treatment should consist of the nightly application of a heavy emollient that offers resis- tance to the fingertips, so pres- sure is deep and firm. Follow by applying. a good skin freshener with a pledget of cotton. Cold water should be applied freelv several times a day. Few women understand that cold ap- plicaitong are of wonderful cos- metic value when tissues have gone into a state of dissolution. What they need is nourishment. They get nou-ishment from the blood streams. Make the blood streams gallop and sulcess will come unless condition are too de. plorable, Fine Georgian-Style Crystal Specially Made for Princess Descendants of glassmakers who made handblown glassware for the Royal houses of Europe and Asia, craftsmen of the Brierley Hill Glass Works in England made table crys- tal for Princess Elizabeth on the occasion of her wedding, R. 8. Wil- liams-Thomas, a director of Royal Brierley Crystal, sald yesterday. Here on'a visit from England, Mr. Williams-Thomas revealed that his firm, glass makers to the Royal Fam- ily since 1834, presented the Prin- cess with 140 pieces of Georgian style crystal decorated with 2 small crown and script E. The Princess selected the style, known as the Royalty Pattern, from among the samples submitted for her choice, and a 'very charming" letter of thanks and two invitations to the wedding were received by the firm. The Royal Family always chooses sieiple glass styles, said Mr, Wil- liams-Thomas, whose firm, in addi- tion to having manufactured hand blown crystal for the Royal Family since the reign of Qeen Victoria, has made table glass for the past Czars breath and swelling of the legs. Rapid and noticeable beating of the heart may also be present, If you suspect a heart enlargement, have a careful study made by your ~hysician, of Russia and kings f Spain, for a number of Indian rrinces, and the kings of Siam and Italy. The dozens of goblets and tum- blers, wine, champagpe, sherry and port glacses, as well as decanters, water pitchers axd/other miscellan- eous pieces whicl¥ made up the firm's wedding present to Princess Elizabeth, were all hand cut, blown and engraved by workmen whose art has taken them many years to learn. Glass making in Stour. bridge, Eng., where the Royal Bri- erly firm is situated, is a craft of the village and was introduced into the district by the Huguenots when they came from France at the be- ginning of the 17th century, The crystal makers are often therefore the sons, grandsons, and sometimes great-grandsons of former employ- ees. While the art of blowing the mol- ten glass through tutes of two or three yards in length is old and many of the wheel-cut and engraved patterns are traditional, there is, Mr, Williatns-Thomas reports, some change in glass styles over the years. Different countries also seem to have "slightly different tastes in glass. Bimply cut glass ratfier than engraved ware is preferred in Eng- land and Canada, while a slightly more ornate style is popular in Aus- tralia.

CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs, Beeckman: I am always at a loss as to exact- ly how I should address the en- velopes of our Christmas cards to members of the clergy, either to a priest or to a minister of any Pro- testant dencmination. Will you please give me some guides about this? Sarah R. First, an important rule to re- member is that you should always write THE before REVEREND, The reason is that the word Reverend is not a title (like "Mr.", for exam- ple). It is an adjective, an 'adjec- tive of courtesy used in addressing those in God's service. To a Roman Catholic priest your Christmas card envelope should be addressed: The Reverend Joserh J. Kenna or The Reverend Father Kenna. If he has a scholastic de- gree: The Reverend Dr. Joseph J. Kenna. A monseignor is address- ed: The Right Reverend (nate), or The Very Reverend (name). A Christmas card envelope to a Protestant minister should be ad- dressed: The Reverend John Wells, (Do not write The Reverend Wells: that is, without his first <name.) If he has a scholastic degree, you write The Reverend Dr. John Wells (or The Rev. Dr. John Wells); or The Reverend John Wells, D.D. If he is married, address the card to both him and his wife: The Rever- end (or The Reverend Dr.) and Mrs. Jchin Wells, Wedding Ring Should Be Put On Finger First: Then Engagement Ring Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My sister and I do not agree on the answer to the question as to where the wedding ring should be worn; that is, whether it is to be put on the finger first or after the engagement ring has been put on. I have been married for four years and have always put my wedding ring on my finger first, as my bridegroom did. in the marriage ceremony, then put my engagement ring on top of the wedding ring. My sister is to be married soon, and she insists that the correct way to wear her wedding ring (which is to be a diamond band) is on top of her diamond solitaire engagement ring, as a guard for the engage- ment ring. Which of us is correct about this? And would the answer be the same whether the wedding ring is a plain one (a gold or plati- num band, for example) or a dia- mond band? Amy A. You are right about this ... when the wedding ring is put on the finger, 'there should he no other ring on the finer. This is true in the marriage ceremony ... that is why the bride either leaves her en- gagement ring at home or (more customarily) wears her engagement ring on her right hand, so that the JUBILEE PAVILION Is Open for Rental on Tay Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday Fl bib the Fall Season | wedding ring may be put on her finger with no other ring on the finger. And this is the correct posi< tion of the wedding ring thereafter, no matter what the type of the wedding ring, plain band or dia mond band. The fact that the wedding ring is a diamond band definitely, most definitely, does not mean that it should be worn as a guard for the engagament ring. How "Unmarried Woman Signs Hotel Register Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I am 27 years old, unmarried, and shortly after the New Year's I am to start on a business trip for my firm, How should I sign a hotel register ... with or without the "Miss"?
