CORNELIUS BEECKMAN A Beauty Grief Many Girls Have By HELEN FOLLETT Hands Up for Inspection By BOB THOMAS By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. By HELEN JAMESON Fashions and beauty fads re- {lect the period. If you doubt that statement, look through a history of dress. It's interesting reading, by the way. When women flung corsets strings over bedposts and pulled their waists down to eighteen inches, when they fainted at will, when they rode in phaetons and carried sunshades, it was their ambition to have tiny, dimpled useless-look- ing hands. They wore gloves that werd ckin-tight, almost impossible to draw on. What a change since then! Driv- ing motor cars, flying planes, do= ing all manner jobs--women still desire to have hands that are white and smooth, but they want them to look capable. Size is no handi- cap; they are perfectly willing to dispense with Victorian dimples. There is almost as much differ- ence in hands as there is in faces. If they are beautifully formed, you are that much to the good. They are unquestionably an asset in which one takes pride. Hands are a sort of index to one's personal habits. We have an unfavorable opinion of the women whose nails are not perfectly groomed. Even the hakd-working housewife can find timeqto lay on .the nail polish, use the soothing lotion. We often hear of the aristocratic hand. There is no such thing. Lovely, attractive hands are not confined to any particular class or walk in life. It is good luck if one is born with long, slender figures. A bony hand can carry an ele- ment of attractiveness. The muscu- Jar hand of the tennis player or golf enthusiast is interesting. One might say that the best hand is the one that expresses the most capacity, whether of a mental, artistic or useful nateure. That means that anyone, blessed with intelligence and good sense, can make the grade. 77 nr NY They wore gloves that were skin- tight. . * + * A certain amount of daily care is necessary. Without it, hands can look old before their time. Since cold water absorbs, the natural oil of the skin tnd leaves the flesh dry, some creamy substance should be used in addition to lotions, Any massage cream will serve, but, if you wish to cut down the beauty overhead, you can substitute lanoline or cocoabutter. Thump it into the backs of your hands, work on the knuckles, and do little cir- cles over the cuticle surrounding . the fingernails. Jr. Miss! Thts! Your whole spring wardrobe -- date and day!

GIVE A BOOK OF FAMOUS PLAYERS THEATRE TICKETS Vo foritin®s D4, ON SALE AT THE REGENT PRICED FROM $1.00 to $2.25 Hollywood -- (AP) -- You think you've got troubles? Listen to James Kerns, After a full year of assorted dif- fieullies, Kern has just finished directing "Two Tickets to Broad- way." At least he thinks he has finished it. with this picture, you can't be sure, So much has been printed about the travails of this movie, that I went to the director for a first- hand report. He said the problems were due to a couple of factors: Bad luck and Television. > It all started with the original story about a ycar ago," Kern re- lated. "The idea came from the success of Kay Thompson and the Williams Brothers. Reversing it, writer Sammy Cahn though it would be the basis of a good story if a man were teamed in an act with four girls, Howard Hughes liked the story and bought it." Kern was hired as director and went to work trying to find a top male comedian for the film, Meanwhile, Janet Leigh was signed for the leading female role. The budget was ticking off, with still no prospect of a leading man. Sid Silvers, who was writing on the picture, rame up with the solu- tion: Split the leading role into two parts, a singer and a comedian. After much finagling, Tony Martin and Eddie Bracken were signed for the roles. "But aitnough Tony sings like an angel, he is a non-line-reading actor," explained Kern. "So the talking had to be done by some- one else. Because we didn't have a top-star name, we had to bolster the cast with names, and added Ann Miller, Gloria De Haven and Barbara Lawrence." Also, Jimmy Durante, who had been written into the picture, was snatched away by television. Two different producers had come and gone and Wald-Krasna inherited the chore. The budget was hiiting the ceil- ing and so was Hughes. The script? "Every morning, Sid Silvers and I would arrive at eigit and go into a corner of the stage and write the day's work," said Kern.

Phone 42 Fight those unsightly blackheads with scrupulous a | cleanliness. Work up a lather with a good complexion soap, then rinse well. Use a soft brush now and then. ® * Comedo is the polite name for blackheads. This condition is no minor good looks grief. Little girls of fourteen or fifteen may sudden- ly be aware of an untidy complex- jon that makes them unhappy. One excellent weapon in the war against blackheads is a complex- fon brush. The bristles must be firm enough so that they will not mat down when they come in con- tact with water. A bland soap, used with a brush and plenty of fairly hot water, will often clear the pores of unsightly deposits, Hot moist compresses are recommended by physicians who specialize in diseases of the skin and scalp. Diet is an important part of the treatment; certain foods seem to enrage the sebaceous glands, cause them to be over-active, sending out too much of their oily fluids. Fats should be cut down to the limit. They include butter, cream and pastries. Little daughter must keep away from the cookie box. Chocolate is deleted in every form, and that's pretty 'tough on girls who love to linger at the soda fountain and candy counter. The diet should include lean meat, sea foods, poultry, all kinds of vegetables, all kinds of fruit and one quart of milk a day. The daily bath is essential. The skin is an organ of elimination and, to function normally, it must be kept scrupulously clean; the effect is vitalizing on the com- plexion, . Powder pads must be clean. Another rule is "Hands Off." Pressing out blackheads with the finger tips means that the flesh cey .be bruised, often causing scars. A comedo extractor, to be bought at the drug store, is the proper means of freeing the pores of these unsightly deposits. Woman Nature Lover Has Unusual Hobby Langham, Sask.--(CP)--A kind- hearted nature lover, Mrs. Oliver Thue, took in 15 sickly hatchery pheasants last Summer and expects to be caring for a flock of healthy young birds this year. Mrs. Thue got the ring-necked pheasants from the Beaver Creek Provincial Hatchery when the birds were to be destroyed as unlikely to survive against predators when turned loose. : Im her "infimary," she's nursed the birds to maturity and their chance of reproducing healthy off- springs is assured. All were born of sound strain but developed gimpy legs, wings or other physical de- formities. Mr. Thue has given up hunting and becoming chief assistant in the infirmary, a low structure that's provided warmth all winter for the birds. He bought 25 ring-necked pheasants from the hatchery last spring at 50 cents apiece and look- ed after them until they were old enough to fend for themselves. Neighbors in the area about 30 miles northwest of Saskatoon keep him posted on their whereabouts. None were shot last year despite the open season. The Thues for the last three years have fed 30 or 40 prairie chick- ens twice a day as well as Hun- garian partridge. There's a pigeon called "Chippy" living with the domestic chickens. He (or she) has been there ever since Mrs. True chopped her out of the side of the well one winter day two years ago and thawed him out behind the kitchen stove, A mildly cured ham will keep up to two weeks in the ordinary re- frigerator. It could be stored from two to four months in the deep- freeze section. HEARD ABOUT THE NEW KIND OF DRY CLEANING THAT GETS OUT MORE DIRT?

In the maxillary sinuses, which are located under the cheek bones, this opening is badly placed, right at the top of the cavity, with the result that it does not drain rapid- ly. For this reason, in the majority of cases of sinus infection, it is the maxillary sinus which causes the trouble. The symptoms of sinus infec- tion consist of headache, partic- ularly in the morning, a discharge which drips into the throat from the nose, coughing in the morning, and pain on one side of the face and in the neck. X-ray examina- tion will usually show that one of the maxillary sinuses is darker than the other. Over Long Period Once established, this infection is likely to become chronic, never clearing up completely but smol- dering along over a long period of time, with occasional flare-ups into an acute stage. Treatmeént with antibiotic drugs, such as penicillin, will not per- manently eliminate the condition. An acute attack, however, may be controlled with the use of one or another of the antibiotic drugs. Other methods of treatment con- sist of draining the sinuses by using suction and by putting packs of cotton, dipped in an antiseptic, into the nose, When this treatment does not bring the necessary im- provement, as is often the case, washing of the sinuses with an antiseptic solution may be tried. After the washing, some penicillin solution should be left in the sin- uses. Improvement often begins by the end of the second day of such treatment. If three or four such washings do not completely clear up the condition, the process should be discontinued. However, after each cold or other infection of the nose or throat, the sinuses may well be washed just to make sure that reinfection does not take place. Large Opening A chronic sinus infection may also be treated by making a per- manently large opening for drain- age. Unfortunately, this opening or window often closes up. If it re- mains open, a cure of the condi- tion will result in practically all in- stances. None of these procedures is of value in chronic sinus infection in children. Drugs which shrink the lining membrane of the nose, thus increasing drainage, are help- ful, but these must not be used too often. If the infection still continues, more radical treatment may be employed as the individual reaches maturity. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS JM.: My gums have been re- ceding. I am 30 years of age. What can I do to stop this? Answer: You should consult your dentist about this matter. In many cages, the cause of receding of the gums cannot be found. It may be that you are developing pyorrhea. You should not delay in having treatment carried out. Be sure to wash the baseboards every time you scrub the floor. Use a brush to get into the crevices, but | be sure not to let the soapy water run into the openings. % More lasting than toilet water vy Less costly than perfume extract PRESENTS Tote TOILET ESSENCE Exciting, cherished TWEED now presented ho in Toilet Essence.

Phone 68 Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Is it ever correct to sign one's name to a Valentine? S.HM. Yes! If a valentine is sent as a greeting of friendsihp, and there is no connotation of romance or romance or "heart interest," there is no reason why i% should not be signed, just as any other friend- ship-greeting-card would be signed. As a matter of fact, very many of the valentines this year are design- ed for just this "friendly Valen- tine" sending. For example: "A bit sentimental? Why shouldn't I be, About one who's been Such a good friend to me!" It's a Challenge . . . To Write a v Thank-you Note For An Unwelcome Gift Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I'm really ashamed to write to you . . . but I do so much need your help that I'm going to "con- fess" and ask your advise. My question is this: Do you think that I am wrong in not writing a thank- you note for a Christmas present I just loathe? I have the suspicion, too, that this gift was a left-over gift. I have delayed writing my thanks because they would not be sincere. (Also, as a matter of fact, I have not as yet received a thank-you note for the Christmas present I sent to the person I refer to above.) Yes, I do think you are in the wrong not to write the thank-you note that you really should have written for this gift, even if you "loathe" the gift, and suspect it's a "pass on gift." If so far in your life-time you haven't had to write a thank-you note for an unwel- come gift, the chances are you'll have to some time or other . .. so why not gallantly accept this chal- lenge with a grown-up point of view and write your note at once? Just dare yourself to write a gracious note . . . it can be done, I assure you! For you can (1) put enthusiasm into your words to thank for the thought, and (2) mention the gift by name, and thinking of some features, or at least one feature, about which you can comment with some degree of enthusiasm. For instance, the color: "It is such a pleasant shade of blue, and will go well with a new blue dress I have"; or the design, "The design is so interesting" ("in- teresting" is a word I especially recommend for you to use, for any gift can be "interesting" from any one of several points of view!). (Judging from your last sentence it is obvious that you and your friend have come to a deadlock in the ability to choose "the right" or "the welcome" gift for each other. And so I hope that by next Christ- mas you and your friend will straightforwardly decide to "Let's face it," and give up your custom of exchanging Christmas presents. This should be done oftener!) Women Ushers at Afternoon Concert Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Our local woman's club is spon- soring a concert to be given on a Sunday afternoon soon, a benefit for a local charity. We are plan- ning to have several of the club members usher af the concert. There seems to be a difference of opinion as to what type of dress they should wear, and whether or not, they should wear hats, What do you advise? These ushers should wear simple afternoon dresses . . . street-length of a color not too light; and small hats. To identify them- selves as ushers, they might wear small identical corsages; or cards with "Usher" printed on them, or even arm bands, Salmon A La Quebec Savory Lenten Meal Salmon"s so good, and so good for you that it has become one of Can- ada's favorite foods. During the meatless days of Lent, there are many tempting variations in ways to serve this delightful seafood, so use it often, and congratulate your- self on your budget-saving economy. You can combine it with many staple foods to make appetizing meals at low cost. For instance, one half-pound tin of salmon, com- bined in casserole with noodles, macaroni or potatoes (as is our re- cipe today) makes an ample meal for 4 lucky people. Salmon a la Quebec 12 1b. can of salmon 2 cups mashed potatoes, hot Chopped parsley, 2 tbs. Butter White sauce, 2 cups ' Flake salmon, strain liquor.
