BEAUTY FOR YOU:- By HELEN J New faces for old ones sounds Plastic Surgery AMESON like a good idea. It comes to some women who cannot bear facial creases and who flirt with the idea of a facelift. : These victims of time's unkind behavior are forever seeking in- formation on the subject, and they might as well have the stern facts. In the. first place, there are few specialists who do this work, Time was when many charlatans flour- ished, making vain promises and sometimes causing injuries, but the medical profession got after them and put them out of business. The treatment requires the great- est possible skill. 'The operator must have vision, be able to know how the patient will look after treatment. Most of them will ac- cept only certain cases -- those supplicants whose appearance bears definite defects that interfere with social or professional life. They do not consider that ordinary wrinkles are anything to get into a frenzy about. It is the opinion of your reporter that professional women are justi- fied in resorting to surgical help, especially stars of the stage and screen; a pleasing, 'youthful ap- pearance is necessary for their work, "Many of them have had facclifts.

Friends Ask "Is It Your Engage- ment Ring?" | Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Topaz is my birthstone, and I | have a beautiful new topaz ring which I have just begun to wear on the third finger of my left hand. This is not an engagement . ring, but I thought it was very becom- ing to this finger and it never oc- curred to me that it would "look | like" an engagement ring until friends began to ask me if it is an engagement ring. I had always thought of an engagement ring as a diamond solitaire. Is it incorrect for me to wear this ring on this finger? C. H. It is not incorrect for you to wear this ring or any other ring on the third finger of your left | | gether? B. A. | (1) I suggest that, as there are to | be no bridesmaids, it "would be | | more effective to have the maid | of honor and the matron of honor | walk alone. . .even though they are to be dressed alike. This would give a far better balance to, the procession. And in this case the honor attendant who is closer to | the bride in relationship, who [ would be the one to be the actual | witness, should walk directly in front of the bride and her father. For example, if the bride's sister is to be maid of honor and her best friend the matron of honor, the sister would walk directly in front of the bride and her father. | (2) It would be best procedure | here too to have the honor attend- | ants walk along (the best man | not to take part in the recessional). | hand. . .there's no rule against this, A ring worn on this finger, dia- mond solitaire or any other ring, may mean an engagement, or, as in your case, it may mean only your preference about wearing it. However, since today some girls choose. stones other than a dia- mond to be set as an engagement ring--and very often choose their birthstone--you will probably have to decide between answering the "wondering-about" questions some of your friends will doubtless ask, FOR A LOVELY LADY { For the leading lady in your life - » . sweetheart, wife, sister or mother | | she's bound to love a disting- |uished French fragrance, com- | | pounded from a thousand flower | petals warmed by the sun in the { heart of France, exquisitely present- | {ed in perfume, Eau de Parfum, | | Sachet Powder, Dusting Powder | | with Puff and petite Perfume Com- | pact. % In the play Green Pastures, the character Noah observed, * very much, but I'se all | got."

Prompt Delivery Hollywood | Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood--(AP)--This week a different kind of banquet was held in Hollywood. : Cocktails. weren't served. No awards were given. In fact, 'noth- ing occurred that would evoke headlines inthe newspepers. The event was the second annual banquet of the Hollywood Chris- tian. Group. It was founded in July, 1949, by "certain Christian entertainers" with the purpose "to provide Chris- tian fellowship for artists of the entertainment world and to unite them in witness to those of their profession who lack a vital rela- tionship with the Lord Jesus Christ." The group is non-sectarian and inter - denominational, meeting every Monday night for religious discussions. Those directing the group's affairs "are understood to adopt a scriptural attitude toward intoxication, profanity or immoral- ity." Founders included Jane Rus- sell, Connie Haines, Porter Hall and Colleen Townsend. Guests were greeted by cowboy star Roy Rogers, who introduced Hall. The character actor offered a prayer in which he asked "God's help to avoid the pitfalls we -face in our profession." After dinner, Ronald = Reagan opened the program. Although not a member of the group, he expressed his interest, citing that "a generation ago, actors couldn't be buried 'in the churchyard." He | scorned publicity which he made actors appear "crazy, immoral and not like the rest of the world." | Rogers added that it's too bad | "people never hear the good things | about actors."
