The thampoo must be so thorough that 'he growth is soft and silky, every air separated from its. neighbor. hough the shampoo agent may be he blandest of soaps, it must not leave deposits on the delicate 'hafts or a coating of soap scum on Lhe scalp to interfere with the func- lioning of the glands there. , Massage of the scalp is another equirement. Brushing helps to perform this function, though not hs effectively as friction with the lingertips. Spread fingers and humbs over your head; keep the lingers stationary and do circles ith the thumbs.

In that case, oil treatments are recommended. Once a week after brushing your locks, apply hot min- eral oil along various partings, us- ing a medicine dropper for the pur- pose. After the oil has been dis- tributed over the entire scalp, give yourself a brisk friction. The oil should remain on over night. When shampooing next morn- ing, start with a rinsing of fair- ly hot water, using a bath spray. Three soapings, three rinsings! Do not brush the hair while it is wet. Use the coarse part of the comb to get the tangles out.

Rations of those living in the countryside are even lower. An_announcement that sugar will be rationed is expected in Ger- man momentarily. INTEREST TO WOME Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood-- (AP) -- Slick-topped character actor Fred Clark today called on Hollywood's glamor boys to toss away their toupees. "You're making it tough on the millions of bald-headed Ameri- cans," Clark advised. "They may get inferiority complexes because they see every male film star with a full head of hair, whether it's his or Max Factor's. . "The baldies of America are in danger of feeling socially and romantically inferior because of the way are are pictured in the movies. There's no reason why Hollywood can't have at least one romantic star who is bald." Clark himself has had a fine head of skin for many years, but he is no oldtimer. He shields his exact age because he fears produc- ers will think he is too young for the character roles he portrays. (My spies report he is in his 30's). Successful Shiny-Domes The actor is living proof that a shiny-domed male can be success- ful socially and professionally. He is one of the film town's most pop- ular escorts, his current date being Benay Venuta. He is also one of the busiest actors, with or without a toupee. ' He has appeared on the screen both ways, but shuns the hairpiece in his personal life. "The toupee is just as dishonest for the male as the falsie is for the female," he reasoned. "I think it is much better to look bald than phoney. Most women can spot a toupee at 10 paces. The movies may be able to trick audiences with fake hair, but it's too easily detected in person." Clark cited science to support his argument. He observed that studies in recent years have shown that baldness is a sign of virility. The fact that baldness occurs in- frequently with women -adds to that belief, he said. Natural Hot Streams Heat Icelandic Homes Winnipeg -- (CP) -- Mrs. Sigur- geir Sigurdsson, wife of the Luth- eran Bishop of Iceland, says Cana- dian women would be interested in 'the way modern homes are heated in Reykjavik, Iceland's capital. "About 80 ner cent of the homes are heated by hot streams of water | that flow from volcanges.and are | piped up from the ground," Mrs. pose of the head, a neat back are all dependent upon the spinal col- umn, figure, wear clothes with elegance, she must make her backbone per- form as nature tall, the balance or equilibrium of the stance creates the lines of a fine and graceful silhouette.

"So Reykjavik is pretty much a smokeless city." spent the Christmas season visiting friends in Winnipeg. Before re- turning to Iceland, they are visiting the United States and Mexico. It is Mrs. Siguardsson's first visit to Canada, although her husband has been here before. "You have so much beautiful snow here," she said. "I love it. In Reykjavik, where our home is, it snows, but it generally melts soon after it falls." Mrs. Siguardsson and the bishop | of the body, its musculature, the nervous system, the inner organs are then in position and align- ment. If it tires you to stand for any length of time, you can be pretty sure that your posture is not cor- rect. You are leaning too far for- ward or too far back. In course of time, either one of these habits will have a deplorable effect upon the figure. Fibres that should be strong will sag, and then what? Fat cells will arrive, take up resi- dence on weak muscles. * Correct positions assumed when standing, walking or sitting tend to improve the appearance of the back, and a neat back is essential if one is to flaunt a bare-top eve- ning 'gown. If you are a ballet fan, note the. lovely poses of the dancers, the erect carriage that is spirited and beautiful. No flattened chests among these pretties, no thickened waistlines; these defects would put them out of business. Note the way the arms are mov- ed, the poses of the hands, the ease of the shoulders. It is the duty of every woman to retain her youthful shape. It is a pity to permit it to change just because one doesn't know how to keep in form. There is many a tubby-shaped woman who, in her young days, was lovely and slen- dér--waist trim, hips neat, arms of normal proportions. Exercise and regard for the laws of health would have kept her that way. MODEL SHOE STORE'S GIGANTIC ANNUAL OF FOOTWEAR Once again our Big Annual Shoe Clearance is here! Yes! ...

BUNDESEN, M.D. CAUSE OF HEADACHE THE patient who goes to the doctor complaining of headache should not always expect a speedy diagnosis of the cause of his trouble. Most people today realize that headache is a symptom which may be present in a great variety of conditions, and that to trace down its cause in the individual case often requires much time and skill. Not infrequently headache is one of the most ¢common symp- toms of what is khown as a psychoneurosis, that is, a mental condition due to anxiety and emo- tional conflicts. When a person has a headache, the physician has the problem of deciding whether it is due to actual disease, such as an infection or high blood pressure, or whether it is caused by some emotional trouble. Hence, in every case of headache, the physician must give the patient thorough physical and neurological examinations. The latter includes an examination of the back part of the eyeball or retina and a test of the eyesight. A description of the headache, its location when it occurs, and the patient's activities at the time the headache begins, must also be ascertained. Period of Worry When headaches occur together with a period of worry or excite- ment, it is likely that an emotional factor is a part of their cause. Then, too, a headache which is forgotten when the patient has something interesting to do is not likely to be due to any actual disease. Some patients 'will say that they have a headache contin- uously, but at the same time.they show no signs of suffering. These headaches, too, are emotional in their origin, The more vague the description of the headache, the more likely it is that the headache comes from psychic causes. If the headache is made worse by talking about it, emotional causes are probably re- sponsible for it. Back of Neck There are some headaches which begin at the back of the neck and pass upward and forward. These headaches are probably due to muscle tension and for the main art are emotional. It is helpful, in determining the cause of the headache, for the physician to talk with some mem- ber of the patient's family, since he may be able to throw some light on the disturbing situations which the patient may have kept Hidden from the physician. When the headaches are due to psychic causes, the patient requires reassurance, explanation of his "Thank you" enough? WHAT SHOULD 1 DO ABOUT: Acknowledging an Introduction? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN WOMEN'S BEECKMAN-- Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Last evening at our club meet- ing, the discussion happened to get on this question: When some- one says to you, after an introduc- tion and perhaps a short talk, "I am very pleased to have met you," Just what shuld you reply?. Sev- eral of the girls insisted that it is enough to reply "Thank you." But to me this seems rather curt. Is Marie M. No, "Thank you" is not enough. Let's figure out why it isn't. When you acknowledge this pleasant com- ment . . , "I am very pleased to have met you" . .. your acknowl- edgement should have two parts: (1) your "Thank you" for the gra- cious comment; and (2) some words to show that you, too, had plea- sure in the meeting. (Otherwise, how could the other person know that you also enjoyed the meet- ing?) For example, "Thank you, Miss Clark, I am so happy to have met you too," or "Thank you. It was a very special pleasure to meet you too, Mrs. Dale." And you may, if you wish, add " ... and I hope to see you again (or 'soon'-or 'very soon.):" Or you may even further 'personalize' your . acknowledgment by saying, "Thank you, Mr. Davis. I enjoyed so much our chat to- gether about Texas . . . I hope we can continue it sometime soon!" Or, "Thank you. Margaret Thomp- son has told me so much about you, and I enjoyed so much chat- ting with you. I hope we three can get together sometime soon." " sir. (Masseur ig often, and how very often, mispronounced "mass- ewer.") : . Masseuse (feminine) ., . , is correctly pronounced "Mass-erz." (Masseuse is very often mispro= nounced "mass-soose.") Adoption of Child not Announced in Newspaper Dear Mrs, Beeckman: Is it correct to send to a news paper for publication the ane nouncement of the adoption of a child? Parents. No . . . the adoption of a child is not announced in a newspaper.. Telephone Discourtesy . Rude and maddening and very silly is the person who calls. on the telephone and begins "Guess who this is," or "I'll bet you don't know who this is," or "This is a friend of yours . I'll give you three guesses." These tactics seem par- ticularly ridiculous in these busy and high-tensioned days. HEREDITY If a child is making steady pro- gress in growth and is otherwise healthy, don't worry if he doesn't conform to popular age-height= weight charts. Individual children grow according to their inherited structural characteristics. To keep them safe from major contagious diseases that so often have injur- ious effects upon their health or in some cases prove fatal, children should be protected by vaccination and immunization against smallpox, diphtheria and whooping cough. How to Pr "M and "Masseuse" Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Will you please tell me the cor- rect pronunciation of Masseur and Masseuse? (I hear them pronounced in such strange ways!) A. N. Masseur (masculine) .« IS correctly pronounced "Mass-sir." Slight accent on the last syllable, condition, and help in regulating his life to eliminate the basic ten- sions which are at the root of his headaches. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Mrs. A.
