TUESDAY, JULY 17, 1951 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU: Teen-Age Beauty Problems "Just keep yourself nice and clean, dear," the mother of forty years ago would say. "Scrub your teeth and brush your hair and look after your fingernails. Youth in itself is so attractive it needs no embellishments." If that were said to # modern teen-ager, she would be likely to retort, "Mother, are you kidding?" She would let forth roars of laugh- ter. Today a girl of fourteen is an up-and-coming young lady. When she is ready for high school she has the privilege of using a lip- stick. The kids enacted this law for themselves and nothing can be done about it. The army, the navy, and the Supreme Court couldn't stop them, so what can parents hope to do? They know as much about pre- vailing fashions and what's new in the way of hairdos, as do their mothers -- more in some. cases. Some hard-working mothers, en- gaged in tramping the domestic treadmill and taking care of younger children, may get out of touch with modern trends. Their daughters can advise 'em, and most of them do. Girls of fourteen may look ages older in long formal frocks, but what of it? The wise mother will not protest. She should stop to think that in just a few years, perhaps, her baby will find her wings and fly away to make a nest of her own. The major good-looks griefs of teen-agers is acne. To avoid this, a girl must give her complexion the most fastidious care. She should wash Her face night and morning. She should use a bland soap that lathers quickly. It is more effective if frictioned into the flesh with the fingertips. Rinsing with warm water must be thor- ough. A complexion brush is a help. If blackheads have appeared, a scda solution should be applied, after the bedtime washing. I oJo Beach or Market You'll tan -- beautifully!

Can you honestly say you knew them all? Put your chamois cloth in an inve:ted jam jar after use, and it rema' s damp and supple for next time. Stop ladders in your stockings with a spot of nail varnish. Rub inkstains with a cut tomato, leave juice on long enough for it act on the ink, and then wash out; or cover the stains with made mustard, leave to dry, and then wash as usual.

When blackheads are present, it is wise to forego the use of cos- metics as much as possible. If creams are used, they should be wiped away within an hour's time. Blackheads sometimes develop in- to pimples, in which case the diet may be at fault. Pastries, choco- late and ice cream should be avoid- ed. Fats in any form stimulate t | the sebaceous glands. The shampoo should be no hurry-and-rush affairs. The soap should be melted and there should be three applications with' plenty of friction, each soaping followed by a rinsing of fairly hot water from the bath spray. Once a day an orangewood stick should be passed under the nail eaves. Bacteria can lurk there. The daily bath is of cosmetic value, has a beneficial efféct upon the complexion.

'A Physician Advises You By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. POLIOMYELITIS THERE is perhaps no disease which parents fear more than poliomyelitis, and justly so, since, in its severe form, none can be more crippling to children. As the season for its worst outbreaks ap- proaches, it is well to consider again what is known of this dis- order. Recently, the virus which causes polio has been isolated, a scienti- fic triumph which gives hope that before long a vaccine may be de- veloped to prevent it. UNRECOGNIZED CASES It has been pretty well estab- lishe¢ that polio is passed from one child to another, though it often appears to skip about erra- tic. lly because of the many mild and unrecognized cases, which can, however, give rise to danger- ous cases -in susceptible young- sters. Therefore, it is good rule to keep children out of crowds during the summer months. The first symptoms of the dis- ease may be those of an ordinary cold. There is a general feeling of tiredness, and later the child de- velops a stiff neck and severe headache. Fever is usually pre- sent and the child has trouble sitting up. DIAGNOSIS CONFIRMED As a rule, diagnosis is con- firmed in its early stage by re- moving some of the spinal fluid and making a laboratory test to determine whether or not a spinal infection is present. Later, severe muscular aches and cramps de- velop, followed by painful paral- ysis. Deformities occur because muscles opposing the ones pa- ralyzed distort the body parts into odd positions. A recent study of 2709 cases offers what may be valuable hints to parents. Of these cases, 21 con- tracted the disease within a month after removal of the child's tonsils, and 18 others within a period of two to three months after this operation. : BULBAR TYPE Twelve of the first group and four of the second had what is called the bulbar type of infantile paralysis, a +t in which the brain stem is affected avd the pa- tient has trouble in breathing and becomes unconscious. Com- parison studies show that the risk of developing infantile paralysis was three times as great in those having undergone tonsillectomy as in those not having had the operation, and the risk of devel- oping the bulbar or brain stem type of infection was eleven times as great. : Although the number of cases studied is not too great, it is sig- nificant that tonsillectomy may increase the risk of infection dur- ing the poliomyelitis season, and that it increases the chances of developing the bulbar or severe form of poliomyelitis during this period. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS C. 8.: Could a trichomonas in- fection become serious? Answer: Usually trichomonas infections do not become serious. Fashion Flashes A RADICAL CHANGE in the neckline marks the very newest suits being developed for Fall. After the collarless, horseshoe and oval neck- line, now we are to have the por- trait or stand-away neckline. The cut shows a neckline that stands away at the shoulders, is open to all sides and is finished with a little cuff, rail or flange. 4 + +> FRESHEN UP simple dark sheers with a large white sailor collar in organdy, pique or mylon, finished with a single bloom or a flower cluster. A matching flower theme pinned to handbag or glove adds ah finishing touch. db + * VERY NEW, because this old fav- orite hasn't been around for some time, is the good dinner dress of black chiffon. Jet black silk chif- fon is msed for a dinner dress with a short, swirling skirt, and a bodice that is drawn in draped folds to a deep V decolletage. Armholes- are edged with Black velvet cording, and velvet is used for the rhihestone- buckled belt. * GETTING BETTER all the time is the storm coat, now treated to 1'_h styling and a clever use of color and fine fabric.' The trend is to the pyramid or loose coat rather than the usual belted trench coat line. Red, white and blue checked wool tweed makes a hand- some stormcoat with a big navy blue mouton collar. Cut on flared lines, the coat has a half belt in back and big pauch posers with flaps.

Bet you didn't, It was believed that the fair ladies of that time were famil- jar with the permanent wave. Tresses were rolled on wooden roll- ers, covered with clay and heat was applied. So we are told by those who are supposed to know, but maybe they are just guessing. They came to these conclusions by giv- ing a keen look-see at lady mums mies. When the uppity hair-do raged a few years ago mgny women still kept their locks shorn. There is much so be said in favor of the bob, especially during the heat of summer. It is a tremendous con- venience; it is astonishingly be- ¢oming to young, middle-aged and elderly women; it saves .a great deal of time in arrangement, FREQUENT TREATMENT Of course, if you have a perman- ent, there must be frequent treat- ments. Nature keeps pushing out the new, straight growth to the tune son's crop of hot weather clothes, of which the stores still have a very wide selection. Cut on simple, button-front sleeveless shirtwaist lines, but very dressy, is a dress of white linen mesh cirbroidered all over in white cotton cord in a rib- bon and scroll design. a Se IBY STILL GOING WELL is gray, in various shades. It is used for all types of clothes, from coats to girdles. This is confirmed by mid- season showings in Paris and Lon- don and by early Fall collections shown here. : * + » ve NEAT AND CLOSE to the head | the line taken by nice little avel hats now in the shops and atop smart heads. Faille ribbon, done in layers, makes a peaked- erown rooftop hat with crisp chick- en-wire veiling piaced at the edge, visor fashion, Rhinestone clips are used at either side. * » WHILE w FLIGHT, a crease- resistant linen suit makes a smart appearance. Moygashel linen, in a delicate coral color, makes a charm- ing suit. A narrow collar tends into curved tabs that are buttoned down with coral and rhinestone buttons. Similar buttons fasten the slim jacket, which has slit pockets on the rounded hips. +» * SUMPTVOUS fur coats are on their way for traditional summer fur sales.

If the forward hairline is becom- ing, the forehead not too high, the hair should be brushed away from the face because a graceful line on the forehead, temples and around the ears is a special mark of beauty. If the brow is low and broad a centre parting is usually becoming. The back of the head and neck are seldom considered by the aver age woman when planning a coif- fure. A multitude of bad points can be disguised when the hair is longer and cleverly arranged, but with short hair the back of the neck should receive as careful treat- ment as the forelocks. SHORT, PLUMP NECK Sometimes it is best to curl the ends upward, especially when the neck is short and plump. The curled-under effect makes a long neck look shorter. Not long ago a young man was asked, "What do you first notice about a girl when you meet her?" He answered, "Her hair. If it is frowzy that's all I want to know about her." Hollywood Highlights By JACK QUIGG \ For Bob Thomas Hollywood (AP)--*"I fear nothing, when I'm in the right . . . ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-taa," sang the plump little man, rocking his head and jiggling up and down in his chair. Lou Costello, who has done just about everything else for laughs, was demonstrating how he hopes to get them with song. He warbles for the first time on the screen in "Jack and the Bean Stalk." Seated at his desk in a studio office clad in the cream and orange medieval costume he wears as Jack, he chirped away. "In every Italian there's a little bit of singer some place," he said beaming. "I dance, too," he added, and did a little jig "Jack and the Bean Stalk" is Ab- bott and Costello's biggest project to date. FIRST FANTASY It's their first venture into fan- tasy, and it's their first picture in color, They classify it as a music- al, another first. Costello is making the film with his independent movie company-- he hires Abbott. He said he got the idea of a "change of pace" film while he was sitting in his library one evening. "My little girl, Christine, kept asking me to read her 'Jack," he said. "I read it, looked at the pret- ty pictures, and thought 'what a movie this would make' Haven't some of the beggest grossers been fantasies?--the Disneys and 'The Wizard of Oz' for instance." The film puts the boys in cos- tume for the first time but they won't be out of character. . Lou will still be the comic, pratfalling in and out of scrapes. an avaricious tow butcher who goes with Jack to the giant's castle to seize the hen that lays golden eggs, treats his partner as meanly as ever.

CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: A friend and I (we are unmarried women) are invited to the summer cottage of two elderly sisters. They are in very affluent circumstances. We are not. We are most anxious to. expréss our thanks for their hospitality in appropriate ways, but, since they have so much, it is difficult to think of any appro- priate gifts that would be accept- able. There is, however, one place not far from the cottage, where we could take them to dinner. But would one such occasion be en- ough in return for a week's hos- pitality? We would deeply appreci- ate your advice as to what we could do that would be in good taste. ---M. -R. I ve a very definite feeling that it would not, or at least might not, be fitting for you and your friend to invite these two kind older ladies to a meal. They may be, probably are, of the conven- tional school that maintains that while you are visiting, you are a guest, and that all the gestures of hospitality should be theirs. Since you speak of their "summer cottage," wouldn't it be better to postpone the return-of-hospitality unti' they return to the city? And, in thc meantime, I urge you and your friend to put your observation and your imaginations high-heartedly to work, and so be abl. to choose some delightfully thoughtful gifts for these two friendly ladies. You'll be surprised, I'm sure, to observe, while you are on 'your visit, how some little gift-item may be "just the thing we've wanted." Look there, then look in a specialty shop or gift- shop, and you'll see what I mean. Or choose just the right book for each hostess; or send them a box of an especially delicious candy or other delicacy that is a special- them some phonograph 'records (an album, perhaps) of the kind of music you observe they especial- ly enjoy; or some delicately fra grant sachets, old-fashioned laven~ der perhaps; or send them a subscription to a magazine you are positive they will enjoy, and will think of you with deep appre- ciation every time it arrives: WHEN BRIDE'S MOTHER AND FATHER ARE NOT LIVING Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My parents are dead. I live with a twin sister. I have a married sister, the oldest in the family, and also a married brother. I am go- ing to be married soon, and I am paying for my wedding. My twin sister will be my maid of honor. Therefore would it be correct for her to announce the wedding, and may the invitations be sent in her name? --J, T. When the bride's mother and' father are not living, the invita- tion. and announcements are, if possible (and if agreeable to all concerned), sent out in the name of her nearest male relative, and, if he is married, his wife's name is of course included. The second choice is a married sister, her husband's name included. Either of these is better than t6 have your twin sister sponsor your invita- tions and announcements, as nat- urally - this would emphasize the fact that you "passed up" your older brother and sister. My advice is that you write notes of invitation (even if your wedding is to be on the side of formality) to your wedding, or invite by telephone when possible. And then, since you dre giving your own wedding, you-and- your bridegroom. may. properly . send formal announcements in your MRS.
