bh" MONDAY, JULY 3, 195 THE DAILY TI MES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN In Jhe Home YEAUTY FOR YOU :- Here Comes The Bride! By HELEN JAMESON Considering the numerous social activities that precede a wedding-- considering the shopping, the dress fittings, the excitement of opening gifts, the clang of the telephone-- it is a wonder that the beautiful bride doesn't have to be carried up the aisle on a stretcher, instead of leaning on the arm of a nervous, perspiring father. The best advice one can give the dear girl is to snatch moments of rest whenever she can, If she is wise, she will seek the quiet of a beauty shop the day be- fore her wedding and have a facial treatment. It will bring freshness and glow to her complexion and-- what is more important--she will find relaxation. She will, of course, / have a manicure and a hair-do. The permanent must be on the books at least two weeks before the Great Day. It takes the hair that long to find out what has happened to it, and settle down, No new arrangement! The hus- band-to-be doesn't want his best girl looking like a stranger, and that often happens when a new coiffure is flaunted. Wear your hair as he has been seeing it. Men are senti- mental guys, usually conservative, course you do--apply a little less have to get used to changes of ap- pearance in their women. If you use make-up -- and of of everything that you use ordin- arily. It is better to be a sweet pink- and-white lily than a red rose. Be careful with the lipstick, You are bound to be kissed and you don't want to leave cfimson marks right and left, Better curtail the use of mascara, even the kind that is sup- posed to be water-proof. You may y possibly shed a tear--it has hap- pened before--and a little muddy puddle under your eyes will not add to the sum total of pulchritude. Allow lots of time to get into your wedding gown, This is one oc- casion when you must not look hur- ried or flurried. Long before you don your veil, have everything ready that you are going to wear or carry. (im il (im Wiie2 1 1 The prospective bride should snatch every possible moment of rest. > + 9 Let your bridal trappings be sim- ple. A well-cut frock with few de- corations is more effective than one that carries too much fluff- stuff, The choice of the veil is im- portant, and the manner in which it is arranged on your head. If you have pretty hair, don't cover much of it. And your slippers! The wise bride-to-be will wear hers before the great event, to be sure that they are comfortable. Nothing on this day 'must be wrong. Take a look at your cosmetic stock; be sure that everything need- ful is packed away in your luggage. All the little beauty items must go with you on your honeymoon, TIPS FOR TEENS :- The Curfew Question ELINOR WILLIAMS a Many a battle rages between high ichoolers and their. parerits on the :urfew question . . , and hundreds of letters from 'teen girls to this column ask, "What is a reasonable time for me to come home on date nights? My mother is 80 old- fashioned . . ." Some parents are undoubtedly unreasonable when they forbid their daughters to have dates until they are 18, when high school days are past and they will have missed so much normal 'teen-time social life, fun and wholesome experience in working, playing and getting along with others. Some parents do this. But other mothers are merely taking many important factors into consideration when they set date curfews and are trying to protect you in ways that you may not re- alize. Here are some reasons for a | sensible deadline on date nights; you'll be glad later on you observed them now:---- 1. Trouble -- If you stay out after the movie and local soda shop close, there are no places to go except the kind where you can get into trouble possibly through no fault of your own. 2. Your reputation -- Girls who stay out late after the "main event" of the evening (movie, dance, etc.) often acquire a "wild girl" tag that sticks, though unwarranted, Boys have more real regard for a girl who is cherished and protected enought at home to have and keep sensible dating hours. 3. Your safety -- Avoiding too- late hours in cars helps you avoid danger from accidents ('teeners aren't always cautious drivers) and from necking. Both easily can lead to serious trouble.

Designer Of Ultra Lingrie Says Women Tired Of White, Want Color By SAUL PETT New York--(AP)--There's a re- volution going on in ladies' under- wear, It involves a tactical change, not a difference in over-all strategy, says John Norman, who designs lin- geries. More and more women, he says are breaking away from demure whites and pinks and blues and are wearing reds, greens and other high colors. "These are by far the most pop- ular boudoir numbers," Norman reports. "Even brides are dropping the usual white lingerie. They're wearing green, yellow, lemon and lime, even black. Imagine a bride in black lingerie?" "The essence of sex," Norman said, "is subtlety, Here's what I mean." He exhibited a red pair of panties. "You see," he sald, "we achieve our effect by the red and by adding a fringe of Flemish lace on the back. --*The-art--in--this business isto show flesh when you least expect it and hide flesh when you wouldn't expect it. Look at this 'bitter sweet' nightgown. The shoulders and neck are nothing but nylon lace. Suddenly it reveals bare arms and then, of course, there's the abrupt plunge at the bodice." Norman, 32, is handsome and a bachelor. He gets his ideas princi- pally from paintings and particular- ly from the French impressionists, "They really got glamour in wo- men," he said. Who make, the best lingerie de- signers, men 'or women? "Men, definitely," Norman an- swered. "Women are abt to get prissy at the wrong time." Are bachelors better lingerie de- signers than married men? "Of course, I'm prejudiced, but I'd say bachelors" said: Norman. "A married man, especially one with daughters, is likely to let his home life interfere. In this busi- ness, you have to be completely un- inhibited" OF INTER "No A Physician Advises You By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. SKIN MOLES MOLES "occur in great variety. They can be hard or soft; black, brown, or skin-colored; flat or ing, hairy or smooth. They can also appear on any part of the skin, though those on the face and legs are the ones most noticed. Certain lumps on the skin are often mistaken for moles. These are made up of brownish or black accumulations of outer skin cells, and are known as keratoses, Mostly Harmless The vast majority of moles are harmless. However, there is one type of mole which is small, flat and black, that may be a type of skin cancer known as a melanoma. Careful examination by a physician is needed to tell the difference be- tween this type of mole and the harmless kind. Moles are really birthmarks; that is, the cells which produce them are present under the skin at the time of birth, For various reasons, these cells may not begin to grow or push through the skin until later on in life. Whenever a mole is located in an area where it may be repeatedly irritated, it would seem best to have it removed. Of course, those which are disfiguring may also be removed, merely to improve the appearance. Surgical removal seems to be the best method of treatment. The small scar which is left after sur- gical removal is almost impercen- tible, After the mole is removed, it should be carefully examined under the microscope to make- sure that it is not of the cancerous kind. Of course, once the original moie is completely cut away there is no likelihood of recurrence. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS SP.: When I get hot my face and neck get red. I am 44 years old. What would you suggest? Answer: The condition you de- scribe is possibly due to some cir- culatory disturbance. It may be that you are heat sensitive. The symptoms may also be due to the beginning of the menopause or change of life. You are in need of a thorough study by your pyhsician to deter- mine the cause so that proper treatment may be used. Plans for shower parties are al- ways exciting at this time of the year. Fruit salads arranged in cer- eal bowls on leaves of lettuce are always attractive as well as tasty. Begin with a spoonful of peanut butter sprinkled with cocoanut, then place a spoonful of cottage cheese mixed with maraschino cherries and continue with circular arrange- ment of alternate fruits, sections of grapefruit, quarters of peaches, and strawberries, stems on, In the centre, place a small diamend- shaped mold of lemon jelly and accompany this dish with a fruit dressing. Serve with melba ' toast and cheese tea biscuits. Tea or coffee with assorted cookies may complete the refreshments for the special occasion.

Don't forget, while cultivating flowers, that you must continue to cultivate good looks. Digging in the soil, planting things, cutting blooms are likely to do terrible things to your hands. Dirt and grime will ruin the deli- cate texture of the «in r ruin fine fabrics. The hands must be protected if they . young looking, be velvet-smooth and of pleasing color. Wear your cotton gloves, Mary, and don't say that they are clumsy. Be thorough when washing your hands. Add cornmeal to the suds. The tiny kernels will dig out the dark lines in your knuckles. Rinse every bit of the suds away and dry thoroughly. Once a day use a lo- tion. Continued washing of the hands robs the flesh of the natural oil that keeps .it from gciung rough. An occasional massage Is a wonderful help. You can use co- cocoa-butter, or lanolin; both are soothing. A little baby oll smoothed on the hands is effective, too.

Visit Wellington, N.Z.--Mrs. Richard- son, a Fredericton woman, came to New Zealand 10 years ago when her husband took up a university ap- pointment in Wellington and has just returned after spending several months in Canada and the Uanted States, . When she first came to New Zea- land she shivered in tthe uninsulat- ed houses and sighed for Canadian central heating, but apparently she has unconsciously become used to New Zealand habits, for when she returned to Canada she found the atmosphere of Canadian rooms hard to take. Her first action on reach- ing an hotel was to turn off the heat and open the window. As national president of the Y.W. C.A. in.New Zealand, Mrs. Richard- son visited many Y.W.C.A. centres in Canada and the United States, and has returned filled with envy at the fine facilities they have ac- quired in recent years. WHAT NICER for a country club luncheon than a frock of snowy white pique, the neckline cut in a square with deep scalloped curves, the skirt moderately full. A wash- able hand-painted design of big red roses, green stems and leaf clusters brightens the bodice and trails onto the skir't. : EST TO WOMEN -~ ---- Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS din Hollywood-- (AP) -- Allied ser- vicemen were disillusioned in the second world war to discover that the South Pacific was not like Dor- othy Lamour movies. Maybe that's because they didn't get to Tahiti. Charles Mauu, a Tahitian chief, says the South Sea movies look like home to him. "We have four movie theatres in -|'Tahiti," said th: husky 31-year-old Prince. "The people like those pic- tures with Dorothy Lamour and Ray Milland. They didn't seemp, ex- aggerated at all." Mauu, son of a chief and descend- ant of 'the Bounty survivors of Pit- cairn Island, described his 1,000 ac- res of ocean frontage at Tahiti: "We grow everything and from the ocean we can get shrimp, crab and any kind of fish. The weather is perfect the year around. It rains a little, but that makes everything green." But are there any girls to match Dottie Lamour? And Girls Too "Oh, yes," he replied. "There are many, many beautiful girls in the islands, and they are very friendly. They wear sarongs, or in the bigger towns, dresses made from sarongs. Not many of them go around with- out tops any more, as they do in Ball." After a few months in Hollywood, Mauu speaks Engilsh fluently. He also speaks French, Tahitian, Fi- jlan and Chinese. May Play French-Canadian "I had no idea of a movie career," he continued. "But I was given a job as an Indian in 'Annie Get Your Gun.' Then I played a South Sea islander in 'Pagan Love Song.' Now I may play a French-Canadian in 'Across the Wide Missouri' and 1 am going to test for the role of Jim Thorpe, He was an Indian, you know. "I like working in the movies; it is very stimulating. There is plenty of time to settle down in Tahiti when I am old." MUCH INTEREST all over the country in a collection of beautiful clothes inspired by ancient and traditional costumes of Greece. Ac- cordion pleated gold tissue lame-- the draped bodice strapless, with a rope effect at the waist and near the knee where it forms a puff -- makes a lovely dress. With it a na- tural colored raw silk coat heavily embroidered in gold. In Jhe Communuty Discover How Good Iced Tea Can Be!

By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs, Beeckman: 1. These are the wedding plans: informal wedding, bride to wear a street-length dress, . . .ceremony to be performed in the rectory. . . reception to be held in the bride's home, for about twenty-five close relatives. Is there any type of en- graved or printed invitation which may properly be sent out and still be in good taste? If not, will you please give me an example of an invitation to be written. by the bride or her mother? 2. When the toast to the bride is proposed, is it necessary for each guest to touch glasses with the nearest guest, as I have seen done ar some weddings? During the toast to the bride and bridegroom do all the guests stand? 3. When do the guests who attend the marriage ceremony at the rec- tory congratulate the couple? ME. 1. It would really be inappro- priate to send any kind of formal invitation for such a very informal | wedding. Correct for this small, informal wedding is either a word- of-mouth invitation or a cordial little note, written by the bride's mother, the hostess of the wedding. And then, if the bride wishes, her parents may send out formal en- graved announcements to all those not invited to the wedding. Also it is very thoughtful and charming for the bride's mother to write to close relatives and intimate friends who live at a distance, to tell them about the plans for the wedding, and add the hope that the relative or friend may be able to be present. The note to be written by the bride's mother to the relatives who live nearby and therefore will probe ably attend, may read somewhat like this: Dear Aunt Grace, Marion and Philip Roberts are to be married in the rectory of our church (give name and address of church, if necessary) on Saturday, July 22nd, at four o'clock. We all want so very much to have you and Uncle Richard come to the ceree mony and then, directly afterward, {to our house for an informal gathe ering of the close relatives on both |siaes. Please do say 'ves, we'll be | there!' Lovingly, | 2. No, it is not necessary to touch | 8lasses, . . raising the glasses a bit, ! just before one drinks the toast |to the bride, or indeed any other | toast at the wedding, all stand. , . I'except the one (bride, for example) {or ones (bride and bridegroom, for | example) to whom the toast is proe | posed. 3. The guests invited to the Ceres mony and not to the reception usually do not have an opportunity to offer their best wishes to the couple. , .if this is done, it h-'ds up the reception and the :ption | guests are kept waiting. However, | if there are only a very few guests | who are invited to the ceremony tnd not to the reception, the bride and | bridegroom may stop briefly to | greet them. But it must be brief, (only a few minutes, and no time must be taken to form a receiving MRS.
