J THURSDAY, JULY 6, 1950 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN 2 ~ OF INTEREST TO WOMEN -~ In Jhe Community BEAUTY FOR YOU :- If Dry Skin Is By HELEN Different ages bring different good-looks griefs. The majority of teen-agers have oily skins; the ma- jority of women have dry ones. Youngsters are active, get plenty of exercise, eat too much ice cream and too much pastry. The sebaceous glands, created to keep the skin smooth, are over-doing the job, Wo- men--Ilacking exercise in tthe open air, finding their circulation slow- er, cutting down on fats lest they take on adipose panniers--are vic- tims of the dry skin, And that's just too bad. The dry skin wrinkles early, it looks scaly when powder is | applied, and there is no health in it. The condition can be corrected. The dry skin may be that way be- cause it is thirsty. Drink five or six | glasses of water a day--unless you are a demon tea or coffee drinker, in which event you can cut them | down to four, Do not be afraid of using soap and water unless the combination Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood--(AP)--Don't mention men to Joan Blondell. She has given them up forever. Or so she says. The bouncy blonde is in town after shedding her third husband, broadway producer Mike Todd, in Las Vegas. I made the mistake of asking her if she thought she'd get hitched again. ""I don't know why I'm even talk- ing fo you," she retorted, "When I see men, I feel like taking a scythe and swooping away at them." Fortunately her gesture was strictly figuratively, but there was no doubt that her late marriage had left her very much anti-men. "I've tried marriage and it hasn't worked," she said, "The trouble now is that I've got to convince my children that marriage is a wonder- ful thing." She indicated that will be one of the greatest performances of her career. : "For four years, my husband didn't want me to work, or at least Your Problem JAMESON causes discomfort. Suds and friction help to remove dead scales that are ever present, Use cream to remove | make-up, have a rousing scrubbing, rinse with tepid water, use cream | again. Avoid hot and cold water. It is important that oily cosme- tics should be used freely, not just spread over the flesh, but worked in with the fingertips. Massage is stimulating, will help the glands to function normally. After patting in a light cream, many skins are in perfect condition for powder without the use of a make-up foundation. One has to ex- periment with these toiletries, find out which kind will produce an ef- fect of smoothness, In mid-winter cold or mid-summer heat you may find that a heavy cream serves as a protective measure, The kind of powder to be used is an important detail of the treat- ment. It should have an oily base, yet be of light, fine texture. When making a purchase, consult the at- tendant, If you patronize a cosme- tic bar, you will probably come in contact with a better-informed at- tendant than you will find at the cosmetic counter.

The majority of teen-agers have oily skin; the majority of women have dry skin, * + ment, too, as the powders are in open containers. A cream rouge is preferred to the compact when the skin is rough; the color is less concentrated and your blush will look less artificial. Put it on in little dots, then blend them, The diet should contain a certain amount of fat, upon which seba- ceious glands thrive. A little more butter on bread and cooked veget- ables, more oil in the salad dress- ing, more cream in desserts. And do not fail to drink more water. Your facial tissues need it. If they don't have it they may soften, and the first thing you know some horrid little furrows, will appear. Black For Summe Maintains a Cool, r Washables : Unruffled Look These days, even the smartest of | city-slicker women look forward, along with their. suburban sisters, to the cotton season. Some of them have already pushed the season ahead, for cottons in more formal moods were spotted this winter at cocktail parties and evenings on the town, Cottons--and we use the word generically to denote washable fabrics--are no longer relegated to informal times and places; they've not even limited to warm weather But warm weather highlights their undeniable attraction, and Ameri- can women, revel in the cool fresn- ness of washable frocks. "This summer you'll see plenty of black. It's cropping up everywhere in summery fabrics. It is a subtle accent for tanned arms and shoul- ders, it maintains a cool and un- ruffled look through the steamiest weather. Smart, sophisticated black combined with the sweet tidiness of washable fabrics is a winner on all counts, You'll see it as a solid note and as a background for prints; in pique, voile, nylon, broad- cloth, dotted swiss, linen, gingham, chambray and organdy. To retain its personality, black must keep its clearness. And that, brings up the question of washing. Black needs special care to avoid a blurred and grayish look. New type detergents don't combine with chemicals in the water to form what is known as a hard water scum. Thus, black washable fab- rics stay as inky black after wash- ing as when they were new. Another must for black clothes is to treat them gingerly with the iron, particularly if they're linen | or linen-like fabrics.

The piano classes, which culmin- ated with a recital at the end of the season, were among the schooi's mest popular, Each student was provided with | a soundless cardboard piano dum- my. A similar one was mounted on the blackboard, and under the first song to be learned, "Autumn Leaves." it With one hand the teacher play- | ed the song on the piano, singing it at the same time so the pupil would learn words and tune to- gether. After a second playing the class was singing in chorus and fingering the notes on their piano dummies. One by one, the students were called to the piano to play and sing At. the end of the 40- period each student had mastered the first lesson. "The secret of this kind of teach- ng lies in immediate musical ex- perience," explained John Hummell one of the graduate students. He added that children taught by this method usually are enthia- 1 siastic and learn the fundamentals easily. 3 emphasized as the primary goal.

BUNDESEN, M.D. DANGER SIGNS Most women do not realize that secretion from the breast is posible at any time of life from a few days after birth up until old age. Thus, if anything of the kind is observed they are likely to become panicky for fear that something is seriously amiss, and sometimes there may be During the maturing period or adolescence, the breasts often be- come swollen and may have a milky discharge. Again, it is natural that women who have had children should have some secretion from the breasts now and again, Throughout adult life and even in old age, the cells in the breast break down and may be discharged in the form of a secretion. 3 Danger Signs However, such secretions can also be danger signs of disease. Bloody, watery, or pus-containing secre- tions are the ones to be watched as they may indicate the presence of infection, a cyst, or some more harmful tumor growth. In order to determine the nature of the discharge from the breast, it should be examined under the microscope, as well as chemically. The source of the discharge from the 'breast can beg ascertained if each part of the breast is massaged gently towards the nipple.
