=~ can't she? FRAY MAY 3, 1951 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN In Jhe Home BEAUTY FOR YOU:- Saving Your Face By HELEN JAMESON Is your complexion on its own? Are yoa trusting to luck that it will retain the youthful bloom, the fine texture, the velvet-smooth surface? Not a chance! Time is against you, Middle-aged women who are free of wrinkles are reap- ing their reward for giving their faces the most fastidious care. The skin has many enemies -- atmos- pheric dust, strong sunlight, harsh winds, digestive upsets. It stands to reason that it requires a certain amount of attention. Neglected, the facial coating de- teriorates. An epidermal surface that is protected by clothing gets along very well. The texture does not become coarse, wrinkles do not appear. It is unfortunate that changes and defects must come where all can see them. Just one of nature's mistakes, a woman is likely to believe. Because cosmetics are used free- ly, women stay young-looking long- er than did their foremothers who did not enjoy the privilege of play- with creams and lotions. Creams serve a useful purpose. They keep the skin from drying out, scales from forming. There is no doubt that they are a force against the arrival of premature wrinkles, Oils have been used for centuries for the purpose of keep- ing the skin soft, smooth and healthy. Faces must be kept scrupulously clean, even if nothing else is done for them. The right kind of soap must be used, one that lathers freely, and it is a good idea to friction it in with the fingertips. "The use of a cream beforehand, for the removal of make-up, will make the job more thorough. As a rule, an emollient should be used after- ward, too, especially if the skin is inclined to be dry. But your cleans- ing cream at the top of your cos- metie list; it is more important than rouge or lipstick. They are just the frosting on the beauty cake. Often one preparation will do double duty for you, and that's easy on the good-looks budget. If a cream acts as a protective agent and a foundation before powdering, The middle-aged woman who is free of wrinkles is reaping the re- ward for doing her beauty chores. > * & so much the better. A good powder not only removes the shine, but also protects against dust and wind Powder should be fluffed on lightly, never' ground in with the pad to clog the pores. If you get on a bit too much, are fearful lest you look as if your countenance were calcimined, remove it with a powder brush. Rouge should be applied by addi- tion rather than subtraction. If you put on too much it is difficult to create an even film. There is no sense in putting too heavy a coat- ing on the lips. If you try to blot it away, your lips may be spotty. TIPS FOR TEENS:- More Dating Problems By ELINOR' WILLIAMS A girl can change her mind,, night to see his favorite TV show We all do, at times-- and so do boys. Guess it's human nature. One of the queries we often re- celve in the daily mail is from high school girls who've changed thelr minds about a certain special boy. First, Judy dated happily with Bill. Then something happened . . . a silly argument, an angry misunder- standing or another boy. So Judy switched her Friday night movie date to Fred. But pretty soon she began to miss Bill and discovered that she liked him best, after all. The big question is this: How can she find out if Bill wants to resume dating as much as she does? You--or Judy--can use the direct approach, if youre the type and know it will work. Simply stop for a chat with Bill the very next time you see him, commenting that it's good to see him again and why doesn't he come over tomorrow (or some other similar suggestion that you're sure he'll welcome). But usually an indirect approach is best.- Get some girls and boys Bill knows together for your pet pas- time and invite Bill casually, tell- ing him that the others are plan- ning to come, so it will be fun if he can make it, too, Or if there's a girls' club dance or party coming up, invite him. If he's a bridge or canasta fan arrange a threesome and ask him to be the fourth at your home and serve the refreshments that you know he likes best. By in- cluding him in a group, perhaps you'll "break the ice" and can re- sume date-fun with your favorite Bill again. Here's hoping!

Try removing spots caused by the weight of furniture with French chalk. Use a small brush, rub the chalk i in, and Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood --(AP)-- The trouble with writing science fiction movies, observes Richard Landau, is that science too often catches up with fiction. Landau, a writer of musicals, was pressed into service for the latest of Hollywood cycles--science fic- tion films, he hiked out to a university bone up on science. Then he went to work on what must be the ultimate in science fiction yarns--a prehistoric atomic film. It is cal- led "Lost Continent." The gimmick is this: The United States Army sends out a test rocket with atomic power. The gadget is supposed to return to the proving grounds, but this one fails. A plane is sent out to fetch it. The party pursues the course to a radiactive Island in tke Pacific where the plane crashes. Tic army officers ascend to a plateau where they find a civilization of 160,000,000 years ago. , All this was strictly in the dream +. *}| division when Landau penned the script many months ago. So what happens? Government announce- ments and the Las Vegas experi- ments indicated that atomic rock- ets are in the development stage. And then an expedition of the Navy and the University of Cali- fornia announced discovery of a lost continent in the Pacific Be- tween Hawaii and Wake Island. "I just can't keep ahead of them," frets Landau over his typewriter. "The Brave Bulls" is good in some respects, not so good in others. On the credit side are the fine Mexican settings, exciting bull-fight scenes and a sensitive portrayal of the troubled matador by Mel Ferrer, but the theme gets off the track too many times and is never sure ot where it's going. The result is an interesting story that reaches cer- tain heights but quickly drops back to trivialities. The climax is also a disappointment after such a dra- matic buildup.

A good choice for the woman who shoes have flexible leather soles, NO girl can expect to march in the good-looks pageant unless she takes care of her feet, gives them leather cases in which they find comfort and ease of movement, seeks professional attention if corns, calloused spots or ingrowing nails are tormenting her. When trotters hurt, one hurts all over. Also, one is likely to develop a grouch or a mournful disposition. Glance from the feet to the face of a woman who walks painfully, or whose heels are crooked, and you will invariably see a tense mouth and lines between the eye- brows. Time will eventually leave tell-tale lines on a complexion that was once smooth and free of creases. Worth thinking about if you find yourself hobbling in uncomfortable shoes. Love Gay Color?

LJ ® Little Attention Consider how little attention most of us give our feet, ye how depen- dent we are upon them. Not only must they support the weight of the body but be ready and willing to take us at high or low speed where we will. It is imperative that they be bathed daily as the exudations of the sweat glands deposit chemicals that are irritating. They should be dried thoroughly, especially be- tween the toes where soft corns often form. Calloused spots can be softened by the free use of mineral oil after which a toilet pumice stone can be used lightly. Trouble Wilt Result Nails must be cut straight across. If trimmed down at the sides the flesh will thicken and trouble will result. In warm weather it is ad- visable to use a foot powder. Fric- tion it into the skin, sprinkle it in your shoes that should have flexible leather soles. For every day wear you can't beat oxfords for comfort. Yes, everyone knows that those gorgeous ones with high heels are tempting. Fall for them, enjoy them and look nifty, but keep them for .the gala occasion. They are certainly beau- tiful and you will find a host of offerings, but do consider foot health as well as appearance.

BUNDESEN, M.D. SALT IN THE DIET THE salt shaker is by no means the only source of salt. If it were, both the doctor and the patient, in cases where the so-called salt-free diet is required, would have a far easier time of it. But salt, or rather that part of it which is harmful in such disorders as high blood pres- sure, chronic kidney disease, and certain heart ailments, is to be found in nearly all foods, Salt is made up of two chemicals --sodium and chlorine -- and it is the former which it is important to restrict. Practically all foods con- tain some sodium. Certain sub- stances used in cookery, such as baking soda, contain it in great amounts, and thus may be greatly injurious for patients to whom salt is forbidden. Sodium, in one form or another, is added to many foods, such as canned vegetables, and bak- ed foods of all kinds, such as crackers, cakes, and cookies. Sodium phosphate is added to many uncooked breakfast foods, Sodium benzoate may be added to canned goods as a preservative. All animal products, such as milk, cheese, eggs, and seafoods, are ra- ther high in sodium; cured or pro- cessed meats are particularly high in sodium. Vegetables, fruits, nuts and cereals, if not salted, are com- paratively low in sodium. Thus, while a salt-free diet is practically impossible, a diet low in sodium can be planned if the matter is handled with care. Some sodium is necessary for normal nutrition. A lack causes weakness, muscle cramps, and tir- edpess. Persons who sweat a great deal may have to take additional sodium in the form of salt tablets. As stated before, certain illness- es are treated by restricting the amount of sodium taken into the body. The doctor must deeide when such a low sodium diet should be used and will outline exactly how much of a restriction is necessary. There are certain salt substitutes on the market which are helpful, since they make the low sodium diet more palatable and, hence, easier to follow.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN -~ In Jhe Conmuuruty 'Perfect tea is so easy to make with "SALADA' TEA BAGS WHAT SHOULD [ DO ABOUT:- Sending a Wedding Present? By MRS, CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: 1. Formerly there seemed such a definite distinction between wed- ding invitations and wedding an- nouncements; that is, wedding in- vitations were sent to relatives and friends, announcements to acquaint- ances. But nowadays it seems that everyone is sent an invitation, and very seldom are announcements sent at all. So what is one to do who is more an acquaintance than'a friend of either the bride or bride- groom or of either family? Must one always send a present when one receives an invitation? 2. And in the few cases when one does receive an announcement, is one supposed to do anything about acknowledging it? SL 1. You're very right about this dilemma that arises from today's new custom of generally sending in- vitations to the entire list, and therefore no announcements. And many people are puzzled by this same question, But as a matter of fact there is no obligation for any- one except relatives and intimate friends to send a wedding present. 2. It is not strictly necessary to acknowledge a wedding announce- ment . . . but it is gracious, polite, to at least write a friendly little note of good wishes. arteries might be another contri- butory cause, and an added fragil- ity of the blood vessels may also be a factor. You are in need of a thorough physical examination to determine the cause; then proper treatment can be suggested.

Unlimited Courtesy . . . one item, thank Heaven, on which we don't have to economize! On Envelopes Never Write City And State On One Line Dear Mrs. Beeckman: 1. On the inside envelope of en- graved wedding invitations should the names be writtén "Mr. and Mrs. John Hill" or "Mr, and Mrs, Hill?" 2. On the outside envelope is the address written in three or four lines --that is, is the name of the city and the name of the state written on the same line? June bride 1. The inside envelope carries the surname only . . . no need to have the first name. Correct: Mr. and Mrs. Hill. 2. On ALL envelopes . . . business professional, social . . . the name of the city and the name of the: state should be written on separate lines. And this is particularly important on wedding invitation envelopes, which should follow a very definite ly prescribed form.
