But she is so young-look- ing, so gay and charming and so seemingly carefree, that those who meet her socially are always amazed to legrn the size of the family she cares for herself. How does she keep her youth- ful gaiety, her calm good looks, her enthusiasm for living, in the face of all that work? She has learned the trick that 8 great many successful men have learned. When she has a chance to leave her job behind, she leaves §t completely. 'When she goes out for an eve- ning, she puts the children out of her mind. After all, if she couldn't have found a competent baby sit- ter, she wouldn't have -left them. And if she has someone with them who is competent, why worry about them? DOESN'T BROOD She doesn't talk about how hard she has worked all day, simply be- cause she has put that out of her mind, too. And she isn't mentally doing to- morrow's work when she should be having fun because she isn't thinking about tomorrow. Somehow many women seem to think it enncbles them to carry their troubles and worries around with them constantly. But the woman who can't get away from her cares and respon- sibilities, even for an evening, soon becomes a worried, anxious, drab woman. And what's noble about that?

Individual Tricks Give Women Charm So what if Susie has lovelier hair than you, Mary has more clothes or Jane a better figure? Don't let that give you an inferiority complex which can blight the de- velopment of your individual beau- ty. Don't waste time idly envying your friends their special attributes instead of adding up your own plus-qualities and finding ways to overcome your deficiencies. Better than envying Susie her luxuriant mop is to find out why you aren't proud of yours. Maybe you're not brushing it enough to bring up its natural luster. Maybe a different hair-do would be more becoming. Don't be afraid to ex- periment until you find a hair-do calculated to do as much for you as Susie's does for her. Instead of wishing you could trade wardrobes with Mary, study your own clothes to see how they can. be pepped up. Learn to use mix-and-match costume "separ- ates, which will put an almost un- limited variety of cqgtume effects into a limited warairobe. Never pass up an individualized trick of using a belt, ribboh, scarf, jewelry or piece of neckwear in an original way. This will help you to build a reputation for cleverness that is more to be valued than a closet crowded with togs worn with no imaginative effect. Efforts aimed at shaping your figure to better proportions are a more constructive approach to beauty than envious admiration of Jane's figure. Take stock of your habits of diet and exercise to dis- cover what you can do to improve your figure. If you're eating too many rich foods or nibbling sweet snacks between meals, resolve to drop an axe on these indulgences. If you can't claim daily exercise as a habit, resolve to add an outdoor sport or indoor calisthenics te your everyday routine. At Otter Lake Camp SEA RANGER NAOMI WILSON Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C.

Rockbrune, the bride is the former Miss Betty Jean Rock- Her husband is the son of Mr, Jack LaRocque, of Field, Ont., --Photo by Hornsby Studio By FLORENCE MILLS Paris--(AP) -- Slim lines replace the padded outlines of the new look in most of the French fall fashion displays thug far. Skirt lengths remain about the same, from 10 to 14 inches from the floor, but much of last year's exag- gerated fulness has been removed from the silhouette. , (New York designers earlier re- pudiated the new look, showing a preponderance of slim skirts for street wear in the fall previews last May and June.) One of the few designers clinging to the bouffant line is Christian Di- or, author of the 'new look," who shows a silhouette in which a full circular skirt is lined with buckram from waist to hem, to make it stand out, parachute fashion. Main points emerging from the shows indicate trends, Waistlines are extremely tight. Waistline seams fall anywhere from the top of the ribs to mid-hips level. Many dress- es are cut in three sections, bodice, waist yoke and skirt, Skirts are mainly straight with an abundance of detail] placed around the hips, or comprise a close ftting sheath which merges into a deep flounce at the knees. This last is the nearest thing to a new silhouette so far. Swing skirts have replaced the fabulous fullness of the 'new look" dresses. Many have built-up waistlines. that extend nearly to the bust and are teamed up with dressy blouses or wool-jer- sey sweaters. A genera] back-to-the-twenties trend is perceptible but most have a definite 1949 flavor. Furs For Emphasis The loose, wrap around coats that have no buttoned fastening are clearly lifted from this era, and the addition of fantastically long and luxurious fur stoles and fur lining, which run the gamut through mink and chinchilla, leopard and cony,( supplies the modern touch. Hips are spotlighted with fur also Many jacket - peplums are laid around with fox or Persian lamb. Some coats are so voluminous they look like capes into which col- ossal sleeves have been inserted. Brief coats look like full cut edi- tions that Chinese coolies' wear and often have graduated hemlines that dip at the back, Some, particularly Dior's, are stiffened with buckram. Many are fur-lined. Capes of all lengths, topping dresses or adding extra warmth to heavy winter topcoats, have staged a comeback, Evening wear has changed very little. Billowing dresses, long Tiny Waistlines, Hip Detail Keynotes of French Fashions sheaths, slit to provide a little leg movement, and Grecian drapery are all featured. Satin is the favorite so far for billowing skirts, the most popular length seems to be ankle level in front, dipping to the floor in back. ; : Broadcloth, in gll weights, heavy klanket velour, wool jersey and plaids are prime favorites for coats and dresses, Colors range through beige, soft greys, deep browns, for- est greens, with occasional sun yel- lows and brilliant reds. All shades of puce, mulberry and lilac are popu- lar, Throw Away Stale Prescriptions, Cures A warning against stocking up the medicine cupboard with old remedies "be:ause age may change a 'con-eatratizn of ingredients" is given by Cr. ©. P, Ereaux ¢f M n'- real, one of Canada's leading :k'n specialists, writing in "Health" magazine published by the Health League of Canada. Nor is it wise to "pass on the remedy to cousin Jim so successful- ly used in treating Aunt Ma'i da's itch, because Jim's skin may burn under its action," he says. Women daily invite skin irrita- tions by the application of "cos- metic = camouflage," the writer warns, "while even the miracle drugs of sulpha and penicillin can prove dangerous and should not be used on the skin without a doc- tor's order." Dr. Ereaux agrees that patent medicines have value, but adds that "one thing the makers do not sell is the medical common sense re- quired for their administration. Such judgment comes only from long 'medical experience." "Many a fine pair of shoes have been . bought for the dermatolo- gist"s baby from proceeds of the layman's { treatment follies," he warns, "If you want to play doctor my counsel is to look before you buy, consult before you try, and don't be foolish." Self-medicators delight to experi- ment on their owh hides and mix up their own treatments, "What is true for an alcoholiday is equally true of mixed treatment in the cdre of the skin, He instanced the case of applying mercury ointment to the skin previously painted with iodine, or, the reverse. "The fireworks set ablaze are wonderful to behold on the' epider- mis," he states.
