NNtural self, avoid affectations, SATURDAY, MAY 26 1951 oy THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE -AGE SEVEN | ~ OF | BEAUTY FOR YOU:- Charm Possibilities Are Many By HELEN Glamor girls are everywhere. In Hollywood they are a dime a dozen. You see their pictures in society columns and in fashion magazines. Usually glamor has to be built up; it calls for clever make-up, professionally created hair-dos, smart clothes. But even these lovelies are not super-duper dollies when their heads come out of the shampoo bowl or they have strange hardware that is a part of the 'permanent wave treatment. Good-looks are a blessing, no doubt about it. But they are not the whole story. Charm means more, in the long run, than per- fection of features and figure. The most glamorous young lady will make others lose sight of her beau- ty if she has a sharp tongue and a nasty disposition. Pulchritude alone never brought happiness. It is not only how one looks, but what one is, what one thinks and says, how one adjusts one's life to the happiness of others, that show the true value of an individual's charac- ter. Any girl who has intelligence, and hose heart is in the right place, an make herself attractive and popular. If she has a charming personality she will win out, be ought aftar. She must be her na- It often happens that a pretty girl, resting on her beauty laurels, is blotted out of the picture when p gay, good-naured; animated girl vith sparkling eyes joins the party. Charm oils the wheels of life. It helps ug to get along amicably with pur fellow creatures. It brings love nd friendship. It creates poise, is n insurance against self-conscious- ness. It is spontaneous sweetness and pase of manners. The charming voman is usually a bright, happy person whose very presence is a onic to less fortunate souls.

Personal magnetism is something that you aren't born with; you must cultivate it. If you make little social blunders, you determine never to make the same ones again. You avoid criticism, never allow your- self to get into arguments of any kind. You know that to be cynical is to make other people dislike you. | And it is just as bad to appear bor- | brings with her an atmosphere of armony. She is true to her own ed, to show lack of interest in what | others are saying. Hello Homemakers! Many jobs| pop up so suddenly during the month of May that we homemakers equire extra help. These helpers heed to know how to be of assist- nce without "upsetting the apple- art." Let "us review items from our housekeeping notebook that are a de for those that require some uition. 1, Fry fresh fish in a small amount of salad oil for 12 minutes, no longer. 2. An easy sauce for fish is made with one cup plain white sauce. Beat 2 egg yolks and add .the sauce, then stir in 2 tbsps. but- ter, and 1 tbsp. lemon juice. Beat for 1 minute and serve. 3. If the boys plan to take the frying pan to the river bank for frying the trout be sure to rub the outside with soap. The black 'scot can then be washed off. 4. For an economical pudding us- ing maple syrup beat 3 eggs and add 32 cup maple syrup, 2 cups milk, 3% tsp. salt, 2 tbsps. chop- ped nuts and 1 cup soft crumbs. Pour into greased custard cups and oven poach at moderate temperature for 30 minutes. 5. Deep-dish rhubarb pudding is stylish this month. Serve the dessert with cream into which you have sprinkled a little nut- meg or cinnamon. 6. With a cheese souffle for a supper dish serve a platter of vegetables: riced potatoes, but- tered asparagus, corn niblets; and also a dish of tomato aspic flavoured with fresh mint. 7. Keep ice-box cookie dough in waxed paper in the refrigerator. When you want cookies, just slice off as needed and bake fresh cookies. 8. Keep baking powder dry or it will lose its leavening. Then too always shake the box occasion- ally and use a dry measuring spoon for level measurements. 9. Crisp any wilted asparagus by placing the stems in cold water for awhile. 0. Rolls and muffins even though bone-dry can be freshened by sprinkling thoroughly with wa- ter and sealing in a piece of aluminum foil, then heated in a warm .oven for 20 minutes, HOUSEKEEPING FACTS . Sorting clothes for washing is a good opportunity to remove pins which might tear clothes, turn pockets inside out, turn down cuffs on slacks, get rid of sand, grass and grit and give each garment a look-over for stains before placing in soapy water. 2. Soaking clothes overnight in water which has cooled down and in suds that have died down has a doubtful cleaning value. The old-fashioned long- soaking tends to give clothes a grayish cast. Tests indicate that 15 minutes soaking in warm suds is best. , Never wash woollens in hot water; use lukewarm suds with '3.or 4 inches of Suds. Do not soak and do not operate wash- ing machine longer than 3 to 5 minutes. Rinse 3 times and press out the water each time Soften the water for rinsing all clothes. If you use borax mea- sure 1 teaspoonful per gallon of water. Never leave wet colored clothes in a basket. If it begins to rain before clothes are dry, hang them on hangers covered with foil or wooden hangers. When 'damp closes have to be kept before ironing prevent mil- dew by storing in the electric refrigerator or hang to dry and redampen next day. . Let skirt hems dry before iron- ing. Then iron from htm to waist, never across the width of garment. This is important when the skirt is made of any material which has a tendency to stretetr or distort. . Most rayon fabrics should be pressed while slightly damp, al- though spun rayons usually look best if ironed when almost dry. . Use the electric steam iron on rayon and wool blended fabrics. . Always hang slacks or any type of trousers by the legs after washing. The wet weight will take almost all the wrinkles out. . When ironing skirt or blouse collars press from each corner towards the back of the collar to eliminate those undesirable wrinkles which persist in crin- kling the front edges. 16. THE QUESTION BOX Mrs, R. K. asks: What kind of cleanser can I use on plastic dishes? Answer: Cleansing chemicals de- stroy the finish of plastic. Use soap and water only. i Miss H. C. asks: How do you take care cf a wooden salad bowl and the spoon and fork? Answer: Wipe out with a waxed paper after each use, then with a damp cloth. Never immerse in wa- ter or soak. Keep away from heat and do not keep in the refrigerator for more than an hour at any time. If roughened smooth with sand- paper, never varnish or paint them. Anne Allan invites you to write to her (care of this paper). Send in your. suggestions on homemak- ing problems and watch this col- umn for replies. Starch, Sugar Included In Well-Balanced Diet "Nutritionists generally find that in a good well-balanced diet, at least 50 per cent' of the calories are supplied by relatively inexpen- sive and palatable starches and sugar," scientific director Robert L. Hockett of Sugar Research Founda- tion says. "Aside from the economics, there are two physiological reasons for this. Carbohydrate is necessary for the , roper utilization of fat for the body. - Secondly, carbohydrate is needed to spare expensive protein to be used for dts exclusive end of body-building and tissue repair. Sugar is very efficient in both these functions," Hockett adds. "To use protein and fats for energy is equiv- alent to burning mahogany logs for heat when other cheap fuels are available." Among the most encouraging signs in the progress of dental med- icine is the growing evidence that immunity to decay can be built into the teeth by supplying proper nut- rients to the mother before the | child is born, and to the child be- fore the teeth erupt. Just what ele- ments produce this immunity is now the subject of intensive re- search. NATIVE POPULATION | Canada's census in 1871 showed | 83 per cent of the population was born in Canada; now it may be higher. | INTEREST TO WOMEN -~ Hollywood J Highlights Hollywood--(AP)--His pro foot- ball colleagues may never let him live it down, but Bob Waterfield is making his acting debut in the movies. And he's out-Flynning Errol. Never was Flynn so brave. In "Jungle Jim in the Forbidden Land," Waterfield plays a former football hero who is downed in the wilderness during a wartime army flight. Sort of like Tom Harmon, you see. Unlike Harmon, who came back to announce sports on television, Waterfield remains in the jungle to become the leader of a native tribe. He likes it there, but he is sought after by a lady photographer (Sheila Ryan) and Jungle Jim, who is" Tarzan with his clothes on (Johnny Weismuller). All three become involved with a mad doctor, who is making syn- thetic diamonds, and the inevitable marauding natives. This problem is resolved when Waterfield tosses a forward pass with a packet of dynamite. Meanwhile, he has been throwing some passes at Miss Ryan, who also decides she likes it there in the jungle and stays with him. Easy Money I found Waterfield, the star quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams, taking the rigors of his new job quite easily, "It's easy," he admitted. "I don't have much dialogue, so I don't have to study at home or anything. It's mostly action, and that's not difficult. Can you think of an easier way to make a few bucks?" I couldn't.

Dial 5-3053 GLAMORIZING:- * LARGE, awkward hands are a beauty problem, especially to young girls who are often appearance- conscious to a morbid extent, They should not let their minds dwell on the subject. When maturity is reached the hands will be in pro- portion to their bodies. Nature ad- justs these matters. Awkwardness of movement is not unusual among teen-agers. They will outgrow that affliction'in time. A big help is found in maintaining correct posture. It will give them a set-up, grown-up feeling, will create self-respect, The slouchy pose is sometimes due to shyness. Girls who are taller than they should be often let their shoulders droop for- ward, having an idea that will make them look shorter. It doesn't. They just don't look pretty. In Warm Water Large hands in adults may be improved to some extent, even though fingers can't be made any shorter, palms any narrower. Now and then the hands shouls be soak- ed in warm water to which Epsom salts, have been added. Rinse and dry, apply a hand cream. Hold the hands in an upright position while giving this treatment, use a firm stroking movement from finger bases down to the elbow. Hands and Make Any Size It's amazing! You can crochet a fifteen-inch scarf in No. 30 cotton for a tray. Or do a long runner for the table or buffet. Scarf makes up in any length including lunch-mat size! Pattern 7050; crochet directions.

Hands Should Be Graceful By HELEN FOLLETT oi i pe No matter how shapely and graceful your hands are they will look prettier with polish. Choose from many attractive shades. J * arms can always stand more atten- tions than they receive, Many women with extremely thin hands have well-developed figures and, in this case, the leanness is due to the wasting away of subsu- taneous fat. Women who do a good deal of dishwashing and laundry work are often victims of this con- dition that makes the hands look old and wrinkled, with knuckles prominent. Use of Lotions The daily use of lotions and a weekly massage with a heavy emol- lient will do much to restore youth- ful appearance. Lanolin can be substituted for the usual face cream; it is nourishing to the tissues, has a wonderful effect upon the skin, making it soft and smocth. You can buy it in tube sorm at your druggist. And to keep hands looking their best, don't skip the weekly mani- cure, No matter what the shape of your hands, polish will improve their appearance. Fashion Flashes EXQUISITE is the detail and de- sign that marks this season's dance dresses. One model has a buttoned- down-the-front, snug basque bodice of black silk taffeta, cut to mold the shoulders at the deep oval neckline. The skirt is of palest pink silk chiffon printed in black medal- lions that are re-embroidered in tiny black beads. A taffeta un- derskirt holds its bell shape. Bodice has long, tight sleeves. * + » EVEN FURS play a role in the popular ensemble act. A vivid green taffeta evening dress has its own topper of white broadtail lined with the vivid green fabric of the dress. LJ REMEMBER the rooftop hat? Well, its here again! Paris shingles is what one store calls its rooftop series, all done in two-toned, sewn, crinkly straw, softly veiled. A nice choice for daytime wear with suits. * + + a MORE THAN ONE smart store in various parts of the country re- ports a call for velvet-trimmed or part-velvet hats. One important specialty shop has been showing a handsome hat--rounded and deep in the crown and with deep mush- room brim--that is all velvet save for the brim lining, which is in white or natural straw. And it's selling, too, for wear with sheers. (LR A NEWS OF HUES from the top furriers includes word of new fox shades.

Personnel Chairman A Physician Advises You By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. INTERNAL EAR DISORDER IT is fascinating when we know that the body gains its sense of balance through little structures located in the internal ear; thus anything which damages or dis- turbs these parts is likely to result in the annoying symptom of vert- igo or dizziness. Generally, these conditions fall into one of three groups. In the first, there is a disturbance of the tiny semi-circ- ular canals of the ears; in the sec- ond, occur those conditions which exaggerate the ear's nervous re- flexes, and in. the third, those which destroy the reflexes entirely. In one disturbance of the semi- circular canals, the victims appear as if they were intoxicated. This is due to their unsteadiness or in- ability to stand. In addition to this severe dizziness, there may be sick- ness at the stomach and vomiting. Attacks occur at frequent intervals. While they last only a few hours, their effects may be felt for days. Deafness and ringing in the ears accompany the attacks in most cases and the power of hearing is slowly lost. The same sort of symptoms may occur with a long-continued infec- tion in the middle part of the ear, and gradual nerve destruction re- sults. There is dizziness, ringing of the ears, and jerking of the eye called nystagmus, along with cther evidences of disturbance of the in- ner ear. Infections of the middle ear, such as occur with meningitis and mumps, are usually responsible for this latter condition. However, the overdosage of certain drugs, such as streptomycin and aspirin; in- juries, and hardening of the art- eries which supply the ear, all may cause enough damage to bring on attacks of dizziness. A disturbance of the reflexes may bring on dizziness and vertigo. This most often occurs in middle-aged and elderly persons, particularly after nervous strain and worry. The dizziness usually shows up after sudden movements of the head. However, severe attacks may last for several days, or there may be slight symptoms which persist for weeks or months, with, dizziness which is felt especially in the morning. These symptoms may disappear after rest and relaxation. The inner ear may be damaged by infections and poisons to such an extent that all reflexes from the ear structures are lost. In such case, the patient.can neither walk nor stand steadily, and there is much. dizziness. No treatment seems to be of any particular permanent help in these cases, since there is nothing which will restore the nerve. Whenever a patient is suffering from attacks of dizziness, examination of the ear structures and testing of the ear reflexes should be made to de- termine the source of the diffi- culty. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Mrs. DW.K.: IT am 40 years old and about two months ago had a hysterectomy. Will I still get my menopause? Answer: If both ovaries were re- moved at the time of your opera- tion, you will go through surgical menopause immediately following the operation. If, however, your ovaries were not removed, you will go through the menopause when it would normally occur. It is difficult to pound small tacks into corners. If you force the tacks through small pieces of paper, and hold the paper instead of the tack, you won't have bruised fingernails, * .

A girl whom I have asked to be a bridesmaid writes me that she has "a light green organdy gown with matching light green underskirt, gloves," and gold shoes" She probably is not financially able to buy another dress. What would then be appro- priate for my other bridesmaids to wear? Also my maid of honor and my matron of honor? And would I be able to wear satin and lace? --R. E. My dear bride-to-be, you must plan your own wedding, what color-scheme you want, what dress- es you wish to have your attend- ants wear. You must not let one "light green organdy gown" provide the keynote to your wedding pic- ture! 'Today bridal attendants' dresses can be very lovely, very simple, inexpensive, and if this girl unfortunately cannot pay for her dress (as chosen by you), either she should withdraw from serving as a bridesmaid, or, more happily, you might be able to give her this dress. But no girl should have such thoughtless taste as even to suggest that she wear a dress she happens to have, and thereby up- set all the bride's plans. A bride- to-be tells her attendants . . . they don't tell her. Which Initial, When Only One Initial is to be Used? Dear Mrs. Beeckman: If the bride's silver is not to be marked with her three future ini- tials, which single initial is proper? --R. A. She may use either the initial of her maiden surname, or the initial of the surname of her future hus- band. Bride's Attendants Pay For Their Own Costumes Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I have been invitéd to be a bridesmaid at a wedding which I} think is to be a very large and for- | mal wedding--and expensive! Does the bride buy my gown, hat and other accessories, or do I? I'm so anxious to know! --A. R.' Bach bridal attendant is expected to pay for her own dress and other details of her costume . . , although her costume is chosen by the bride-to-be. The only exception is that the bride's family provides the flowers that the attendants carry. Organdy for Mid-August For Bride and Matron of Honor Dear Mrs. Beeckman: (1) My sister is to be married the middle of August, and I am to be her matron of honor. She and I will wear floor-length gowns, which I am planning to make. Do you think that it would be appro- priate for us to wear organdy that late in the summer? (2) My little daughter, two and a half years old, will be a flower girl. I have a niece who is nine years old, and since she is the only other child in the family and has always been loved 'a great deal by my sister, my sister and I were wondering if it is ever possible to LILLIAN MAE MARSH SCHOOL OF DANCING ® BALLET o TAP ® TOE ® CHARACTER eo BARRE MASONIC TEMPLE SATURDAY INFORMATION 3.7253 Yall the SANITONE man CLOSETS JAMMED WITH WINTER CLOTHES?...

(1) Yes, mid-August is a perfect time for organdy . . . and this charming, light-hearted material is very popular with brides this sea- son! (2) Yes, it is possible for a little girl to be a ring bearer, but a ring bearer is usually only four or five years old. My suggestion is that the bride's .(and your) niece be another flower girl, to walk with your so-young daughter . .. and I also suggest (what is occasionally done today when either one or both flower girls are particularly young) that you have the flower girls walk together, and preceding (instead of following) the matron of honor, who can keep a protecting eye on them. The Experts Say Live if you must in a two-room flat but that doesn't mean you have to get all your meals in rese taurants. y It's possible to cook some mighty tasty dishes on a two-burner grill and the National Health Depart- ment has put out a booklet to show you how to do it--nutritiously, In "Meals for One or Two," the department has listed the equip- ment necessary for the makeshift kitchenette. It also trots out some hints on how to cut down on the housekeeping bill. Covered jars are best for staple goods--these could be old tobacco or candy tins painted over. ' : A pressure-cooker saves time and heat. A double-boiler also is suggested to save cooking space. In the food line salads are cheap |and easy to arrange. The depart- grated carrot and cabbage; tomato, lettuce and green pepper; spinach .leaves, cabbage and radish slices; celery, cabbage and raisins; orange and grapefruit sections, chopped apples and sliced bananas. Suggestions for desserts: Pudde ings such as rice and tapioca serve ed plain or. with fruit flavors; gelatine desserts such as plain jellies, fruit jellies (when almost set fold in fruit). Buying For Two When shopping for two you can count. on two servings from half 8 pound of boneless meat, filleted fish, fruits and vegetables. Three servings from half w= pound of cottage cheese; four to five servings from a 20-ounce can of fruit, vegetables or juice.
