Sometimes it is ad- visable to substitute a cosmetic meal for soap; it has cleansing proper- ties and is not drying. Before washing the face a light eream should be used to remove ghke-up.

This is al- ways a difficult time of year for the homemaker who likes to serve fresh vegetables yet serioisly tries to keep within the limits of a food budget. Many inviting imported vege- tabes are available for those who are not-on a slim budget, while our winterized storage vegetables do . The best way to overcome this in-between season is to make use of canned vegetables and, when possible, com- bine a canned one with a fresh vegetable, Oanned diced carrots with fresh cooked celery or canned peas with cubed turnips are inter- esting and full of flavor if the canned ones are only heated hot and mixed with the fresh cooked ones at the last minute. To make the best of old potatoes prepare them as scalloped « or creamed with a little diced onion. Then, too, potatoes whipped: creamy with milk and lightly seasoned with nutmeg tend to take a new lease on life, : This is also the time of year to serve your own home-canned fruit and vegetables.

SOUTH (Next to Burns Shoe Store) Telephone 5590W A Physician . Advises You By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. CHILDREN'S AILMENT BLOCKING of the upper breath- ing passages in babies and young children may result from a number of disorders. The site of the trouble is found as often in the throat or voice-box as in the windpipe. Swelling or inflammation of these structures, "little tumor growths, the "collection of thick secretions, and the formation of abscesses can all hamper the child's breathing, in some instances so severely that there is danger of cutting it off altogether. For this reason, all such cases demand prompt treatment and careful observation. » Occasionally, a condition, known as retropharyngeal abscess, occurs, though it is seen today much less frequently than in the past, thanks to our new anti-biotic drugs. In this disorder, an abscess forms in the back wall of the throat, making necessary an operation to drain ft. Due to Allergy Swelling of the back part of the throat .may also occur in angio- neurotic edema, a condition re- lated to hives and evidently due to allergy or oversensitivity. Al- lergy may also bring about a sud- den swelling of' the tissues of the larynx or voice-box. This may offer an extreme hazard if it is not treated promptly with a drug known as epinephrin. If this does not bring immediate relief, an operation, known as tracheotomy may be needed so that the child can breathe. Blocking of the larynx may be present shortly after birth and in these cases it is probably due to sor? relaxation of the muscles in the larynx. A child with this'coh- dition has characteristic noisy breathing during inspiration, and there may be some indrawing of the areas between the ribs, par- ticularly when the baby is breath ing rapidly. In order to make the diagnosis sure, an examination with a laryngoscope may be car- ried out. The larygnoscope is made up of a tube and light which make it possible for the doctor to look directly into the larynx. Fortunate- ly, this condition gradually clears up without any special treatment, usually by the time the baby is one or one and one-half years of age. Little tumor growths, known as papillomas, may occur in the larynx and must be removed surgically. Comes On Suddenly Croup in children usually: comes on suddenly at almost any time of the day, but generally about mid- night. Relief from croup, which is due to slight inflammation and spasm of the larynx, may often be obtained by making sure there is plenty of moisture in the room. A more serious condition is the one known as acute laryngotra- cheobronchitis. This is due to an infection by various types of germs, particularly streptococci. The disorder is much like croup, with noisy breathing, hoarseness, and coughing. There is high fever and great distress. The larynx may swell to such an extent that tracheotomy becomes necessary. As a rule the infection is treated by giving antibiotics, by keeping the child at rest, and by having moist air in the 'room. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS W. J. B.: My bones crack at the wrists and ankles a lot. Does that mean I am deficient in calcium? Answer: Cracking in 'the joints may be due to a number of dif- ferent causes, such as jnflamma- tion of the tissue around the Joint; to some of the cartilage or other tissue that has broken off and become loose in the joint, or to actual inflammation of the Joint itself. . It is. not due to ficiency. 2 An X-ray of the joint might be helpful in revealing the cause, so that proper treatment for over- coming the trouble can be suggested.

If the beauty budget looks Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood--(AP) -- Does it seem to you that Hollywood is getting more self-conscious every day? Well, it does to me, even if you haven't noticed There are movies about "the town ("Sunset Blvd.") books ("The Disenchanted") plus all kinds of public-relations cam- paigns to explain what Hollywood is or isn't. : Now the ultimate has beeh reach- ed. They are making a film call- ed "I am a Movie Studio." I went out to see about this- project and was introduced to Gordon Hol- lingshead, veteran shorts producer at Warner's. } "I got the idea for this film from the requests we have received to make films for commercial com- panies," he explained. "It occur- red to me that if all those other big industries had films to sell themselves to the public, why shouldn't we? "Also, wherever I go, people ask me if I can get them inside a movie studio, So I decided to make a film that would do a public rela- tions job for the industry and sat- isy people's curiosity about the studios." He sald the film will open. with a helicopter shot of the studio, Then a voice will start: "I am a movie studio . . ." "Then we will go through every department in the studio and show how each contributes to the making of a movie," Hollingshead related. "We'll show the human side of a studio--like Gary Cooper talking to a bunch ofgcowboys outside a set or Joan CrAwford walking her dog. And we'll also show what a massive undertaking the produc- tion of a film is." Owen Crump, who is writing the script for the film, told me it will include a variety of facts and fig- ures about a movie studio, Warn- er's in particular. For instance, did you know that the plant has: Enough electricity to light a city of 40,000? Twenty-two stages, including one termed "a roofed ocean," 120 by 320 feet, with a tank big enough: to float a submarine? A sound department that in- cludes 9,000 different sound effects, from a peacock's love call to a burp? 3,000 employees? 140 acres and 12 miles of streets? Shops that can make anything from an airplane to a yo-yo? thin and skimpy you can give your- self a home permanent. What more could the girls ask? The smart woman will condition her hair for several weeks before her appointment. She will apply hot mineral oil freely to the scalp and to the hirsute growth as well. Lubrication relaxes the shafts and they will take a stronger, better wave than if these home treat- ments are not given. Twice a week should be the rule. Give your halo a ten minute brushing and have the right kind of brush. Treat a strand at a time, holding it away from the head, sending the bristles through it with a rolling motion. Use mineral oil as hot as the scalp can comfortably bear. With a medicine dropper trickle it along various partings. Give your brain thatch a brisk friction, moving the flesh about, pinching it. Oil the ends of the hair; they are always dryer than the growth close to the scalp.

WHAT SHOULD [| DO ABOUT: Acknowledging Sympathy Notes ? By MES CORNELIUS BEECKMAN 'Dear Mrs. Beeckman: « My mother passed on recently, and I have written all the thank-you nofes for the letters of sympa and funeral ' flowers. Should I also write notes of thanks for Mass cards and sympathy cards? : » OT. Yes. You should write a thank- you for every gesture of sympathy sent to you as a memorial thought of your mother. Cards, as well as flowers. And it is particularly im- portant that you write some words of appreciation for Mass cards, spir- {tual thoughts. a "Mess of Kinfolk's Trouble" Is In The Past . . . Forget It! Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I need your good advice. I am 46 years old; my husband has been dead a year (he was killed in a car accident); my only child, a son, is in the service; and I am living here alone, I have 4 chance to marry a man' who seems to really love me, he is 58 years old, has never been married, and has enough money to support me very well indeed. But, though I believe that I leve this man more than I ever did my husband, I'm really afraid to mar- ry because I was so unhappy with my first marriage, The reason I was unhappy? In-law trouble, all on my husband's side. My husband was a |, good, moral man, and a good fath- er, and this man I'm going with knew him very well. My mother-in- law lived with my husband and me for nineteen years -- she had daughters, but she and they couldn't get along" together. And there were many, many other in- law complications and disagree- ments. in my husband's family. My family and relatives seldom came to see us because they knew what an unhappy time I was hav- ing with my in-laws. I'm afraid to tell this man all the ups and downs I had with these in-law troubles, for I'm afraid he might take it the wrong way. Now what do you ad- vise that I do -- go ahead and ex- plain the unhappy mess of kinfolk's trouble I had m my marriage? (His parents are dead, he's the only son in the family, he lives with his sis- ter, and he has three other sisters). Or should I marry this man and say nothing af all about these trou- bles I had? Puzzled. Don't clutter up your life . . . don't clutter up your heart and your thoughts and your chance for happiness . . . by foolishing clinging to the destructive memories of this "unhappy mess of kinfolk's trouble." That, devastatmg kind of trouble should be completely forgotten . . , and I mean completely . . , just the moment it is over and one's duty or responsibility concerning it is over, Apparently you did your duty, probe ably took more difficult responsibile Ity than you should have taken (your sisters-in-law, I guess, plan- ned it this way) . .. and now that it is over, let go, and let your useless nfemories go. There just isn't one bit of sense in your "hashing over" these troubles with the man you aré considering marrying. He'd only be bored (or should be) by your troubles-recital, If you love - him and have faith in him, marry him, and spend your thought on showing him a bright future, not a dull past, The Bible has wonderfully wise advice for you (Phillipians 3:13-14; "This one thing I do; forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark."
