Nhe Yuga pulchritude sory: There is the important matter o the disposition. That, . too, ig have a quality of charm, else a is lost. External loveliness it everything. Let the most besuuiful of women have & sharp tongue an a disregard for the feelings of her fellow creatures, washout. hop woman can be an angel -- never saying a tactless word, . al- ways able to hide her feelings. But she can try! If she keeps on trying, she will overcome her small faults and failings. If she has a sudden flare of anger, let her hold her tongue: If every woman held true to the slogan "Don't start anything," there would be fewer family battles. Not only that, but better-looking faces, since the wo- man who has no emotional control almost invariably is cursed with premature wrinkles and a sour facial expression. A bright-eyed, smiling, good- natured woman will keep the do- mestic wheels oiled and running smoothly. The Pappy and the kids will catch her high spirits; the atmosphere of the home will be sunny. Such a woman need not fear old age; She will always be young because she finds life zest- ful and interesting. She will have her off-days, as we all do, days when she may not feel like laugh- ing. But she 'doesn't let these things change her character, or her attitude towards others. She carries on. Consider Gloomy Gussie. Let's take her apart. She makes it her business in life to be down-in-the- mouth, always expecting the worst. She is a chronic complainer and fault-finder. = Nothing that any member of the family does ever suits her. At times, she is down- and she That, however, is is a Dian King Features Syndicate. Pappy and the kids will catch her high spirits. *> right mean, seems to enjoy being mean. What does she look like, this lemonated creature? Drawn-down lip-ends have brought sagging tissues: In the course of time her face will look like an old walnut, full of creases. Her dismal outlook interferes with nutrition, slows up circulation, and she grows old pre- maturely. Serves her right. If the years teach a woman anything, it is that fussing, quarreling and blubbering never buttered any parsnips. Keep sweet! Smile if it kills you! It will help you to face life with courage and strength. SOCIAL COSTS Vancouver -- (CP) -- A total of $8,089,862 was spent in state sup- port of 16,574 persons in Vancouver in 1950.

All-Female Play Grim Production Of Spanish Plot New York (AP)--Broadway occa- sionally sees plays with all-femin- ine casts, but they're usually on the comedy side, such as Clare Booth Luce's "The Women" which had a good run a few years back. The latest all-feminine play how- ever is completely in the opposite mood. Newly-arrived on Broadway, 'The House of Bernarda Alba" is a drama of a domineering mother and her five frustrated dayghters, a story of Spain 50 years ago. As the new presentation of the American National Theatre and Academy, 'Bernarda Alba" is a grim production. It does not esem' like- ly to attract more audiences than those small groups who support the usual art movements. Written by Frederico Gargia Lorca, a distinguished Spanish dramatist who was killed by Fascists in 1936, the play presents a harsh, morose and brooding story of Sen- ora Bernarda. With her five mar- riageable daughters confined almost like prisoners in small, austere rooms arranged like cells, she rules with a hand of iron. The reason Senora Bernarda gives for this sup- pression is they must remain in strict mourning for eight years for their father. In this tragic, introvert family, sister becomes enemy of sister and eventually the whole household is one of bitterness that threatens to explode any second, and it does, ending in a shooting and a suicide. Mourning Women Naturally in a drama of this type, where there are no men on stage for contrast, there is a tremendous anxiety and burden on an all-fem- inine cast. They do it in the style of Greek tragedy, even to the point of opening the play with a proces- sion of mourning women weeping for the death of the father. Katina Paxinou, recently from several impressive film perform- ances in Hollywood, is moving and impressive in the firm, disciplined role of the mother who is deter- mined to cut off her daughters from the world--especially from men. Helen Craig and Ruth Ford ste excellent as two of the daugh- ers, But it is an unhappy disagree- able play, more suitad to drama festivals where audiences are in the mood for serious study of theatrical subjects. Do not allow your nice new aluminum kitchen utensils to stand in dishwater for long periods of time. This has a tendency to dull the finish. i ¥ PRE-NATAL CLASSES Starting Wednesday, January 24th, at 2.20 p.im.,'d néw series of pre-natal education classes will begin.

Then listen to the plaint of Valli, who is launching a campaign for the return of her first name, which is Alida. "What would you think if people /{ just called you Thomas, nothing else?" she inquired, I fumbled for an answer and she continued: "Now you know how silly I feel to be going around with only one name. It doesn't make sense and it's confusing. People' get me mixed up with Rudy Vallee. "In Europe everybody known me as Alida Valli, "What's wrong with the name. I've had it 28 years and I like it, I want it back." The actress lost the handle when she was brought to the United States by David O. Selznick four years ago. Some bright studio mind apparently thought the single name would sound more alluring. Oddly enough, the Alida is hers and the Valli is not. Her rea] name is Altenburger, - "The name is Austrian--I come from the north of Italy" -she. ex- plained. "When I started in the movies, they decided the name wouldn't do. So I ran my finger along a list of names in the tele- phone book and arrived at Valli." Classified' ads are sure to pay. Phone. 35 with yours today..

A ---- -- GLAMORIZING:- Some Common Skin Troubles By HELEN FOLLETT wil : 3 If skin is dry and reacts to soap and water, cleanse it every day with a good cream. leaves skin refreshed. * . easy to understand that the first requirement of complexion care is fastidious cleanliness. There is the normal complexion, the dry one, the oily skin. For the first it is advisable to use soap suds at least once a day, prefer- ably at bedtime, and to follow the lathering with a rinsing of warm water, dashes of cold water, a gentle drying and the application of a cream. Over-Active Glands The complexion that carries a shine, due to over-active glands that don't know when enough is enough, can have two soapy scrubbings a day. If a complexion brush is used, so much the better. THE normal, healthy skin is a beauty blessing. It has a perfect oiling system in the form of sebaceous glands that keeps it from becoming dehydrated. Sweat glands carry on so that there is ever present an almost invisible amount of moisture. These exuda- LJ Especially recommended is a lavender-scented cream that * tions attract and hold to the sur- face the dust of the air; so it is The use of creams should be lim- ited. If it is necessary to apply one when the flesh is chapped, remove it in half an hour; neyer let it remain on over night. It may happen that the dry skin kicks up a fuss when it comes to contact with soap. In that event a cosmetic meal can be used in place of soap. Some of the meal is sprinkled over a moist wash cloth, the cloth is passed lightly over the facial area. Creams must be used freely and often. A thin yone should be at hand for the removal of make-up, a heavy emollient frictioned in after the meal is used. The smart thing, of course, for the "drys" to do is to get at the root of the matter, which usually is a diet that does not contain enough fat of which the sebaceous glands are in need if they are to do business as usual.

A Physician Advises You By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS _ AT its beginning, rheumatoid arthritis appears in an innocent guise. Patients in these early stages often come to the doctor complain- ing only of a single swollen painful joint in one of the fingers and this is likely to subside within a week. For a time everything appears to be normal until renewed flare-ups in other joints ofcur. By the time the larger and more important joints show signs of the disease, the patient's general health Is damaged. The exact cause of the disorder is unknown, but it is generally as- sumed that it must be made up of many contributing factors, Fatigue, acute infection, emotional disturb- ances, chills and injuries have all been known to bring on initial at- tacks. Disease is Active When the disease is active, rest in bed is of the first importance. These patients are often nervous and tired, and rest and quiet are extremely helpful to them. Pain- relieving and quieting drugs are used to keep the patient comfort- able. Patients are given iron-con- taining preparations and calcium or lime if the bones show a loss of calcium in the X-ray plate. No special diet is necessary, ex- cept that it must be well balanced, supplying all' the necessary food parts. As the patient begins to improve, carefully supervised exercises may be employed. Heat treatments are particularly beneficial. The giving of plenty of vitamins is also valu- able, since most of these patients are undernourished. : Two Preparations In recent times, it has been found that two preparations are of great help to many patients with rheuma- told arthritis. These are cortisone and ACTH or adrenocorticotropic hormone. The latter is one of the secretions from the pituitary gland located at the base of the brain. This secretion seems to stimulate the formation of another secretion by the adrenal glands, which are located above the kidneys. The fact that these preparations appear to'be of value in patients with rheumatoid arthritis would seem to indicate that some as yet unidentified glandular deficiency maybe a factor in producing the disease, The treatment of this condition is a complex procedure. There does not seem to be any one single drug which will cure the condition in all cases but, with the combination of drugs, heat, exercise, massage, rest, and diet, many cases can be checked and crippling prevented. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS B.Q.R.: My husband had syph- ilis about five years ago. Would it be wise to have another child now? Answer: If your husband is com- pletely cured, it should not inter- fere with your having another baby. N. M.: I have had epilepsy for years. Will I have these attacks the rest of my life? Answer: With proper treatment, in many instances the epileptic attacks may be controlled. To restore color to ecru or egg- shell curtains that '.av: been wash- ed clean, and to cover up any faded streaks, add. strong tea to the last rinse water.

CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: For several years I have been a | member of an organization, and now I am the head officer. This organ- ization is now planning to give a dihner in my honor, and that prob- ably means that the dinner ¢hair- man will propose a toast to me. I have always been uncertain as to what one should do when a toast is proposed in one's honor, Do I rise? Or just what is the procedure? Mary Elizabeth When the toast is proposed, do not rise and do not lift your glass, After the other guests have drunk the toast, and are seated, then it is courteous for you to rise and thank them. If you wish (and I hope you will) you add a few words of ap- preciation of the honor they are giving you, perhaps, too, something about your deep interest in the activities of the club, and of your hope to take part in these interests and activities for many years. Formal Tea Hours Dear Mrs. Beeckman: What are the customary hours for a formal tea or' afternoon re- ception? Alys Usually from four to seven o'clock. Sometimes from four to six.

In the lower left corner of the invitation are the words "Black tie or dark' business suit." My husband, who is a junior executive in the company giving the dinner, is to sit at the speakers' table, though he is not to be a speaker. He has asked me to ask you what He should wear une der these circumstances. Your husband should I should wear a tuxe edo: ("black tie"). I am quite sure that although the other guests are given a choice of attire, the men at the speakers' table will all wear "black tie."

Supplies Greek Lad With Artificial Limbs Ottawa --(CP)-- Thanks to the women's auxiliary of the Canadian Legion Branch at Leduc, Alta. an 11-year-old Greek boy has been fitted with two artificial limbs to replace the legs he lost in a land- mine evplosion. The story was told here by the Unitarian Service Committee of Canada. The boy, Vassilies Anag- nostopoulis of Macedonia, stepped on a mine a year ago and it ex- ploded, tearing off both his legs. The victim wrote a letter to Queen Frederica of Greece asking for help and she recommended his case to the Hellenic Society for Crippled Children, which receives aid from the Unitarian Service Committee of Canada. As a far-reaching result, young Vassilies now can get around on artificial limbs given by the Leduc organization through the U.S.C. Dr. Lotta Hitschmanova, US.C. executive director, has received a letter of thanks from the Queen's lady-in-waiting. It reads: "Her Majesty the Queen of the Hellenes was informed by the Society for the Protection of Crippled Children of Athens that you helped a Greek crippled boy named Anagnostopoulis to be fitted with artificial limbs. "Her Majesty the Queen has in- structed me to transmit to you her sincere thanks for your kinde ness to the little boy under her protection."
