TUESDAY, MAY 22, 1951 tHE DAILY T IMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN INTEREST TO WOMEN -~ BEAUTY FOR YOU: Good Looks Whimsies & Business By HELEN Vast sums of money are spent every year by women who would be lovely to the eye -- and what wom- an wouldn't? During the last quarter of a century the beauty industry has increased by leaps and bounds, as the expression goes. Beauty shops are flourishing in even the smallest villages. Millions of dollars are spent each year on face powder alone. Fads come and go, and all have an influence on husiness in gener- al. Time was when the false hair trade was going like a house afire. Grannie will tell you how she paid sixty dollars for what was called an inside pompadour, and a cor- onation braid thirty-six inches long and that weighed three ounces. It was the er: of the Merry Widow hat. Suddenly the customers lost in- terest in blanketing their heads with demountable tresses, and factory hair disappeared = almost over night. Some beauty shops, with large stocks of hair goods, went into bankruptcy. Wholesalers closed their doors. When the chemise frock appeared --designed like a pillow case and yequiring only three yards of material -- there were wails from textile manufacturers. They must be happy now, with the full skirts the girls are wearing when they fare forth for the gala evening. The bakers protested during the period of the reducing mania, when even the skinnies counted their calories, fearing to gain an extra ounce, The customers were not eating enough white bread and pastries. Plump ladies are still en- deavoring to shed their over- curves, but diet is not the absorbing subject of conversation that it was when the boyish shape was con- sidered chic and sassy. When some women decided not to wear stockings in the dear old summer time the hosiery manu- facturers went into a dither. These same women now have come to the conclusion that even the prettiest legs are most attractive when dressed in sheer nylons. Soon after the first world war, young . girls whose mothers were putting them into steel-riveted cor- sets came to the conclusion that they weren't born to wear saddles, so they chucked them into the furnace. For a time t he corset in- terests were in a state of dismay and worry. Women discovered that the unbound figure wasn't all that it should be, so foundation gar- nen. were designed. They give support, conceal figure defects, and are recommended as a health help by the medical profession. But for a time the corset makers were Pays Compliments 4739 SIZES 12--20 byron fteloms Just wait till they tell you how jovely you look!

A Physician Advises You By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. CHILDHOOD'S HAZARDS TODAY, accidents present one of childhoods greatest hazards. They actually kill more young- sters than any single disease and account for one-third as many deaths as all diseases combined. In addition, they maim and crip- ple many other children for life. The prevention of accidents dur- ing the first year of life is a prob- lem for the parents or others who may care for the child. Any acci- dent to a youngster under one year of age is directly the fault of those who are responsible for his care. Matter of Education Such absolute protection cannot, however, be continued into' the second and third years. From this time on, it is a matter of educa- tion; that is, the child must not only be protected but must also be taught to protect himself against accidents. Children learn soon in the second year which experi- ences can be painful, such as get- ting close to a hot radiator. It is the period between one and five years that is critical and most im- Accidental burns are, of course, frequent. in preventing burns, the parents should, naturally, never allow the infant to be near a stove, an open flame, or an open ht socket. The baby should not be allowed to play with matches or a lighter. Out of Reach ..Poisonings, also, are frequent in children, Parents should remember the child's climbing abilities and place poisons and caustic substances out of his reach. Infants should never be allowed near machinery with exposed mov- ing parts. During the first and second years, the child must be protected against falls, Stairways should be guarded by gates of some kind. Screens in upstairs windows must be fastened in securely. Of course, children learn from their own ex- periences in climbing about and falling so that they gradually learn to be careful. Various Dangers In teaching accident prevention, it is necessary for the child to learn (not in any way that is harm- ful to him) about the various dangers which may confront him, Children who have "had several accidents may develop a sense of insecurity and, of course, this must portant in teaching the youngster to avoid accidents, be guarded against, for such a feel- ing of insecurity may have an effect on the child's entire life. Accident prevention requires re- sourcefulness on the part of the parents. They must give some: thought to the subject and be able to anticipate dangers that will de- velop along with the child's ever- changing interests .and activities. They must also be able to estab- lish discipline in order to protect the child against major threats which cannot be removed from his reach. This all takes time and ef- fort, but it will pay off in wonder- ful dividends. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS L. T.. 'Do hormone injections have any contribution to make in the fight against infection? Answer: The only hormone com- pounds which have been known to be effective against infection are the new drugs, ACTH and corti- sone, and, sometimes, thyroid ex- tract, These, however, should be used only when other drugs, such as the antibiotics, have failed.

Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood: -- (AP)--The public seems to like off-beat casting, so here is my offering for today: Claudette Colbert expounding on television. You may think that the glamor queen of the movies wouldn't know any more about TV than she would about diesel engines. That's where she fools you. One of the smartest movie minds, she has been anaiyx- ing the new medium with the same cool calculation. . Miss Colbert was one of the first stars of top calibie to make a video venture. She appeared on Jack Benny's show last month. "1 did.it for two reasons," she told me. "1, because Jack is such a good friend of mine. 2, I wanted to see if television is like the mov- jes. I found out it is. "I think one of the reasons most of the actresses in Hollywood are scared of television is that they're afraid how they'll look on it, "I've seen some very beautiful women look like hags on TV. And I've seen some wonderful clothes look like rags. Looks the Same "So I threw three or four dresses over my arm and went over to CBS to test how I looked on a TV screen. I found out I looked just the same as I do on the movie screen." The actress predicted a healthy future for Hollywood in the new medium. "You've got to give people what they expect, and the public is too accustomed to the scope and action of movies to go for dramas that are limited to one or two sets. That is the theatre technique, and TV is not theatre. image on a screen you must use movie methods." BEAUTY IN THE SHADOWS The best way to shadow out what you don't want people to see under your chin, says Hollywood make-up master, Max Factor, Jr., is to use either an application of dry rouge or of dark make-up foundation. Either application must be faint. No matter how faint and undetectable it is, it will help to shadow out the appearance of a double chin or a creepy skin. But don't, warns Factor, use this shadowing-out trick anywhere but under the chin. Never carry it down over any part of the neck or up over the jawline toward the cheek. When you throw an|. .

Ours is to. be an informal wedding, to take place in summer, at eleven-thirty. My fiance would like to wear a white jacket, which I think too would be very nice. But his cousin insists that this is not correct for a morning wedding. Will you please advise us? 2. If this is correct, is it neces- sary for the two ushers to wear white jackets also? (I am having only one attendant.) D.v. 1. What do you mean by "a white jacket" . . . a white ainner jacket, "tuxedo" jacket? If you do, your finance's cousin is absolutely right . . . this is not correct for a summer daytime wedding. Not correct for the men to wear until evening, after six o'clock at the earliest. For an informal summer wedding . Wherever it takes place . . . the bridegroom and his. attendants may wear: (a) Blue or gray coats with white flannel trousers, or (b) White suits, 2. The best man and ushers wear the same type of attire as is worn by the bridegroom . . . only their neckties and boutonnieres may differ, Shoulds Friends Omit Giving Bridal Shower When There is to Be No Reception? Dear Mrs. Beeckman: The wedding is to be in a few weeks, and after the wedding there is to be a dinner for the immediate families only. Is it proper to give WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT:- Attire for Summer Wedding? By MRS CORNELIUS BEECKMAN the bride-to-be a shower even though , the people who wcald be invited, to the shower would not be invited to the wedding recep-, . tion? There is a difference of opin- ion about this, and we would ap- preciate your advice. MJ. It seems to me unfriendly an ungenerous not to give a shower in honor of the bride-to-be just because, for some reason, she and her family are not giving a wed-. ding reception, Ferhaps they can't afford to give a reception . . . if so, how happy her friends would make her by giving her the joy of having a shower! Or there may be another important reason, which kind friends might know and lovingly understand. But if iriends have in mind to give a shower for a bride-to-be just be- cause they know they will be "ree paid" for this gesture by being ine vited to a wedding reception, surely no right-thinking girls would wish to have a shower given for her under these socially-businesslike conditions. Also and here's comfort for those of the give-and- take social school of thought . . . today many brides don't have a wedding reception directly afer the wedding, but do wait until they return from their wedding trip and then give a reception or housewarming in their new home.
