OF INTE )| BEAUTY FOR YOU:- Steam Treatments for Blackheads By HELEN _ "Dust-filled pores cause much un- happiness among the young fry and, unless the condition is corrected, a child may develop acne, a skin dis- order that is not quickly overcome, even under professional care. Eight-graders are particularly like- ly to be afflicted. "The explanation is simple," a medical man tells us.."Along about the age of thirteen or fourteen, cer- tain changes take place in the glan- dular systems, The sebaceous glands are overactve; they send out an ex- cessive amount of oil that picks up atmospheric dust, putting a black cap on the wax-llke plugs in the pores. These blockades increase in size, the walls break, invading bag- teria take possession and pimples form. Then you have a case of acne that may continue for years unless something is done about it." Most skin specialists put acne pa- tients on a diet, one that is fairly free of fats. No butter, cream, rich pastries or chocolate. As a little girl is dreadfully conscious of the speck- Jed complexion, she is not likely to "rebel against these restrictions or deprivations, The diet should include fruit juices, especially orange juice. Lun- cheon should include one vegetable, dinner two, and perhaps a green salad. There should be three large glasses of milk a day, from which the cream has been removed. The daily bath with plenty of friction is part of the treatment, pulously clean, if it is to function normally. Twice a day the face should be washed with a rich soap suds; not just swished over with a washcloth, but massaged with the fingers until the soap lathers freely. A rinsing with warm water follows, then the flesh is given a steaming treatment to soften the blackheads and heal the eruptions. There should be at least five hot, moist compresses, JAMESON .

Then a cold rinsing, a gen- tle drying with a soft towel, and an application of a soda solution--one teaspoonful of ordinary baking soda dissolved in half a cup of watef -- should be allowed to dry on. Large blackheads should be re- moved, but never pressed out with the fingers. At the drugstore one may purchase a comedone extrac- tor, a steel instrument with a small circular opening that is placed over the black point. Pressure is applied evenly, so the skin will not break and cause a scar. WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT:- Giving a Luncheon Party? By MES. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My husband and I moved here quite recently, and we have been invited to several homes to dinner, but I would like to begin to give small informal luncheons, inviting women I have met in my church work, or a club here, and several wives of my husband's business connections. How many courses would I have to serve? (I have Jocated a maid who promises to come when I reed her, to cook or to serve, or both.) And would I have to plan an elaborate menu? --Florence T. Today's luncheons are customar- ily very simple, usually informal, and an elaborate menu is rarely served. Three courses are the maximum: soup or an entree; the main course, sometimes meat, very often eggs in some form (perhaps shirred eggs with chicken livers, or an omelet); dessert, usually sim- ple, and always uncomplicated by "fussiness." Many famous hostess- es achieve a specialty of one ex- cellent casserole dish and serve this as a first course, accompanied by a simple green salad, and with an interesting kind of bread or small hot or heated rolls or biscuits; and a dessert; only two courses, Or often there is some other kind of hot first course, after which salad and cheese are served. Or, in sum- mer, for the first course, melon or grapefruit; a hot course; then ice cream or ice (with plain sugar cookies) or, a favorite now, berries or fresh or stewed fruit with the now-so-popular sour cream. After- luncheon coffee is served in the living-room. Dear Mrs. Beekman: | A friend of mine {s going to! give me a supply of those beautiful, | large, soft-like-linen paper napkins, | and has asked me to tell her what initials I'd like to have printed on them. What is the customary choice for this? I'm married, and my surname is Baker, --A. B. The hostess' three initials are usually used. For example, A, S. B. . « « for Alice Smith Baker. Very often, in marking of this kind, the initial of the surname is empha-. sized in the monogram-design . . . therefore, when you write your in- itials for 'your friend to give for the order, underline the initial of your surname. Unkind to Relatives and Friends Dear Mrs. Beekman: We wanted to have our engage- ment announced in the simplest way possible--no fuss, no engage- ment-annduncement party--and so my parents simply sent the formal announcement of the engagement to the two local newspapers. Since then we have been severely criti- cized by my relatives and his rela- tives, by my friends and his, and by our mutual friends, We have been told that it was incorrect, dis- courteous, for us not to tell them personally, that it seemed so 'cold' to be informed by reading the news in the newspapers first. Was what we did really so incorrect? . --Ann I, Indeed what you did was incor- rect, and unkind, and most incon- siderate. An an- + eng it and, naturally, most naturally, rela- tives and intimate friends expect to be informed (by word of mouth or by telephone or by note) of the en- gagement of a relative or close friend. They can't be expected to feel honored or complimented by receiving this important news through the newspaper announce- ment. This isn't the way of court- esy, thoughtfulness.

BUNDESEN, M.D. TREATMENT OF WARTS THOUGH warts usually cause no symptoms worthy of treatment, they can be both disfiguring or dis- abling, depending upon where they occur, While they appear only as blemishes on the face and hand, they are definitely painful when they occur on the soles of the feet. For one or the other of these two reasons, people so affected have a common desire to get rid of them. Warts are small overgrowths of the skin tissues. They vary in size, color, and shape. They are slightly more common in women. It would seem that warts can be passed from one perosn to another by direct contact. Often they disappear with- out treatment of any kind. Common Type The most common type of wart is known as the verruca vulgaris. These warts are raised, hard, grey or yellowish swellings, varying in size from 1/10 to % inch. At first the surface is flat and smooth, but becomes scaly or crusted. These warts occur most often in children and adolescents, and are found par- ticularly on the hands and fingers, but any part of the skin surface may be affected. In getting rid of these warts, lo- cal destruction is suggested as one of the good forms of treatment used by many doctors. This may be ac- complished by using the electric needle. A local anesthetic to reiieve pain may have to be injected around the wart when treatment is carried out. If the wart is large, actual cau- tery or heat from a hot iron may be employed to burn the surface. This surface is then removed by scraping, and further burning is carried out until all of the wart has been removed. Tend To Recur Warts in the bearded area of the face tend to recur and spread ra- pidly because .they are frequently injured in the process of shaving. They are also removed by electric needle and cautery, It is suggested that an ointment of aureomycin be | applied to the face after shaving and before retiring. This helps to | relieve the humber of recurrences and speeds the healing. Warts around the nails are dif- ficult to remove permanently. It is suggested that they may be treated by cutting away the overlying nail and then using a form of acetic | acid, followed by a salicylic acid preparation. This is kept on for a | week, the dead tissue is cut away, and an antiseptic ointment put on. If, during the time the salicylic acid is on the wart, it becomes extremely painful, the ointment may have to be removed. A single treatment usually brings about a cure. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS D. G.:. My grandson, age 5, swal- lowed a button and it is still in his stomach after a week. What would you suggest? Answer: X-rays should be taken REST TO WOMEN -- GLAMORIZING:-, o& daughter is learning that a achieve that MOTHERS should take little daughters by the hand, lead them along the beauty way. Children are ever mindful of appearance and at an early age should be taught about the importance of good grooming, They must be told how to brush their teeth proper- ly, sending the bristles away from the gums instead of pressing into the delicate tissues, They should take pleasure in brushing their hair. When they dally in the bath tub they should be made to scrub elbows and knees with extra dili- gence, using a brush for the pur- pose. At the teen-age period they should have their own cosmetics, then they won't be dipping into mama's precious toiletries. The hands of young girls are often from time to time to determine whether or not the button has pass- ed into the intestine, Once it is in the intestine, it should pass into the bowel and out of the body. Even if it should become fixed in one po- sition for a period of several weeks, operative removal is seldom re- quired. Teach Your Daughter Beauty Tips .

If she is nof subpiied with them the mama will never be able to find hers. 3 Young girls love perfumies, Only the most subtle, delicate bouquets are suitable for sweet young things. No birthday gfit is more welcome, With them should be a word of caution. They should be kept in a cool, dark place so evaporation will not take place.

Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood-- (AP)--How does the United States look through the eyes of a nine-year-old Italian boy? It's a - wonderland of slot machines, television and Gene Kelly. » The boy is Guido Martufi, a lad with a dark, expressive face. He arrived from Italy a few days ago with his father, Amerigo Martufi. Amerigo, so named because he was nearly born in Brooklyn (his parents moved back to Italy short- ly before his birth) is barber for the movie crowd in Rome. "I cut the hair .of all the actors and di- rectors," he said, "all except Ro- berto Rossellini; he has no hair." Because of his connections, he has been able to get movie jobs for his sons, Guido and Roberto, Boxing Mouthpiece Guido landed a good role in the recent "Teresa" and has been brought to Hollywood for a part in "Westward the Women," He speaks no English, so his inter- preter is Johnny Indrisano, who told me that Guido's chief passion since his arrival is slot machines. "When he got off the plane, he saw a cigarette machine and asked what it was," Indrisano related. "I showed him how it worked and he was fascinated. Now he wants to put money in every one he finds, just to see what comes out. "I took him up to see a tele- vision set in a store in Hollywood and he was amazed. When I turned on a baseball game, he Perfect tea is so easy ' to make with "SALADA' TEA BAGS started looking around the store to see where the players were." No Kelly On a studio tour Guido had one disappointment: "I met Clark Gable, I met Esther Williams, I met Fred Astaire, but'where is Gene Kelly?" He is wild about Kelly. What does he like about Kelly? The translation is roughly: "He's so simple, so plain, so down-to- earth."
