. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1951 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE | BEAUTY FOR YOU:- Eyes Right? They Should Be By HELEN J. Do you know that some women are better looking wearing g. than without them? It is certainly true of the woman who has little hammocks under her eyes, as they conceal them. Also if vision is not perfect, that clear-eyed look is gone because the lids are constant- 'ly being drawn together to protect the eyes from the light. Special- ists who are authorities on the sub- ject say that few individuals past the age of forty enjoy normal vis- jon. And look how many young ped- ple are wearing specs these days! It isn't that eyes are getting weaker, but that early examinations reveal defects. ' Let us consider the difficulties of the misguided woman who, be- cause of vanity will not put glass panes on her soul windows. She tumbles over the unseen step, looks awkward, takes a chance of break- her leg or turning an ankle. must ask somebody to look up a number in the telephone book, or read the menu card at the restaur- ant. When arriving at the party she sees only a confusion of faces, has to stare and squint to 'distinguish her hostess, At the movie she drags the family down to front seats where they don't want to go but must because mama can't see well. When doing her shopping this woman is at a disadvantage. If she is to be sure about fabrics and the quality of different items she needs second sight. The best way to get that is to beat it to an eye special: ist, get glasses, wear them all the time, not just occasionally. If she does not make an effort to find relief from faulty vision she will squint and scowl, develop facial furrows that cannot be erased. Her sense of values is lacking. Designers of spectacle frames and lenses are making interesting offer- ings. Behind some of these smart looking models a pretty face can remain distinct; clearly standing apart from the glasses before it. The symmetry of the face is not changed. The eyes may even ap- When doing her shopping this woman is at a disadvantage. * + » pear larger and clearer than if she didn't wear glasses. Flesh-gold frames blend unobtrusively into the color of the skin. Then there are designs that make long noses look shorter, short noses longer. These smarties think about everything. Nobody wears glasses by choice. But once they have been pronoun- ced necessary, there is no choice. It is silly to be prejudiced against them, as impaired vision can bring along a trail of troubles--extreme nervousness, grouches, headaches, chances of accidents, WHAT SHOULD 1 DO ABOUT: Replying to Formal Invitation ? By MKS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: To settle a discussion, will you ease" answer this question: When one regrets a formal invitation (by a formal reply, of course), is it nec- essary to give a reason for regret- ting the invitation? "A" says this is the polite thing to do. "B" says it 3 not necessary. Who is right? oth ::A" and "B" are right. When one writes a regret for a for- mal invitation, it is indeed "polite" (as "A" says) to give a reason for regretting. But "B" is right too, for in today's social usage it is not con- sidered "necessary" to give a rea- son (or excuse)» for not being able to accept the invitation. The usual form is: .'r. and Mrs. John Smith regret that they are unable to accept the very kind invitation of Mr. and Mrs. Robinson or Tuesday, the first of October 0 INTRODUCTION- QUESTIONS FROM A ' TEENAGER Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I am sixteen years old, and I have two questions concerning introduc- tion that are bothering me. 1. How should I introduce my mother to one of my girl friends? 2. How should I introduce my father to a boy schoolmate? Janet 1. May I tell you first that your question is worded incorrectly? You introduce anyone to your mother . . . not your mother to, for in- stance, a girl friend. That is, men- tion your mother first in the in- troduction. A correct form for your introduction: "Mother, this is Mar- garet Allen," or "Mother, here is Margaret Allen, who is in my Sun- day School class." 2. And your father is not intro- duced to a boy . . . the boy is in- troduced to your father. Mention your father first in the inrtoduction. Like this, for instance: "Father, this is Tommy Robinson." WHEN IT'S A MISTAKE TO "COME IN FOR A WHILE" Dear Mrs. Beeckman: When I drop in to see a friend and she says she must leave in, say, fifteen minutes, but very cor- dially invites me in for that length of time, should I accept her invi- tation or should I leave at once? I feel that perhaps if I don't ac- cept her invitation to ¢ome in for the fifteen minutes she mentions, she may think I'm offended by her telling me she must leave, a a S. Myr: It's a mistake, I think, for a visi- tor to come in at all when it is perfectly obvious that her call is inconvenient. In probably ninety- nine cases out of a hundred the one called-on is making a special effort to be polite by quickly men- tioning a period of time before her necessary departure. Undoubtedly she hasn't. the fifteen minutes to spare ... . except in a special ef- fort toward courtesy. ABOUT CUTTING A SERVING OF MEAT Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Is it correct to cut a of meat into mouthfuls before start- ing to eat it? ; No ... NOT AFTER NURSER DAYS! Cut one piece (a small mouthful) of meat at a time, as you are ready to eat it. BOW TIES Tall, slender men are well-suited to bow ties. They are advised by style experts to wear more of them, especially in the new narrow styles. The study of medicine is a selec- tive process in itself. Seven years of intensive study in college, plus one year of practice in a hospital,. | are the minimum requirements, It | is wise to trust your precious health only to a conscientious physician of recognized standing. Avoid the quack, the charlatan, the "cure all" type of doctor. Al- most invariably they do more harm 'than good. Select your physician as you should your pharmacist -- with care and confidence. When your physician writes a prescription, bring it to us to be filled. We are specialists at this work. KARN'S DRUG STORE 28 KING ST. E. OSHAWA, ONT. Next to Post Office Dial 3-4621 Prompt Delivery A000 Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood (AP) -- New York fashion models need not apply to fill Hollywood's shortage of danc- ing girls. They're not wanted. That's the blunt statement of Le- roy Prinz, in command of the beauty brigade at Warner Bros. Gals who wear the latest clothes in the fashion mags are not suit- able for, films, said the dance director. "Why, the public would throw rocks at Hollywood if we put that kind of girl in our musicals," said Prinz. "They may look all right in fancy clothes, but without them they look awful. With their legs gud flat chests, they look like bean poles." The lack of enough dancing girls for films was caused by two fac- tors, he said: 1. The public appetite for mu- sicals and other escapist fare. 2. The rise of a new kind of dancing girl. He explained it thus: ¥ "The 'chorus girl' is a thing of the past. Until recent times, all a girl had to do was & semblance of a time step and could get in the chorus. But nowadays, the girls don't dance in a line. MUST BE TOP "The dancing girl of today must have many attributes. She must be good looking and have a good figure. She must know how to tap dance and must be a ballet dancer as well. Also, she must sing, read lines and do comedy. "The result is that the business is attracting a much finer calibre of girl. The dumb chorus girl of the past is disappearing." Prinz cited Virginia Mayo as a prime example of the new type of show-business girl. She started out as a dancer, but her training soon pulled her out of the ranks. CAPSULE REVIED "A Streetcar Named Desire" stretches the censorship code about as far as it will go. The sex-ridden Tennessee Williams play is tran- slated almost intact (except for a couple of franker passages). The result is a highly-charted picture of baser emotions in New Orleans' French quarter. It is one of the best-acted pictures of the year, with Vivien Leigh brilliant as the world- weary southern belle. Marion Brando is amazingly na- tural as the brutal husband, and Kim Hunter is fine as his for- giving wife. , Fashion Flashes TRICKY methods: with veils mark many of the hats in top- bracket collections. A little sailor of white melusine has a red velvet band and a matching red face veil with a long end to pull through a loop at one side of the brim, to be adjusted to suit the wearer. * bb THIS AUTUMN will see the up- surge of the good, useful black dress for daytime wear and for late-day wear. Inky black ribbed silk crepe for a smart dress that is stiffened and curved to look very new. The asymmetric neckline closing is repeated in the crossed peplum. Jewelled pin accents the bodice line and the small slanting collar and keyhole neckline have a detachable white ottoman band. * +b MORE POPULAR every day is the report on the strapless bra slip, so suitable for today's clothes. Made with an eye to sheer blouses is a new one of nylon tricot, with front zipper and bra-boning, and insets of nylon elastic in back and sides. Bodice is nylon embroidered mar- quisette, which is repeated in the full hem flounce. * + NICE WAY to do up a simple lit- tle hat for dressy wear is with one of those new sheer veils dotted here and there with large sequins.

BUNDESEN, M.D. ANGINA PECTORIS THE patient with angina pec- toris is subject to sudden attacks of pain over the heart and radiat- ing up :into the neck on the 'left side and down the left arm. The attacks, which may last from a few seconds to a few minutes, strike without warning and so violently that the sufferer is stopped in his tracks and is scarcely able to move until the pain subsides. In addi- tion to the pain, there is marked pallor and great anxiety. Such seizures are, at least in part, the penalty angina patients pay for exerting themselves be- yond their capacity, or for over- excitement. Some, for instance, get into, trouble when they climb stairs; others when they attempt to hurry. Even an emotional flare- up can bring on an attack. SLOW AND EVEN PACE For these reasons, such patients should cultivate a "take-it-easy" attitude, undertaking only such activities as are well within their powers, and setting a slow and even pace for themselves. They should, of course, be under the care of a physician. The diet for the angina patient should consist of easily-digested foods, containing moderate amounts of green vegetables, fruits, and meats. He should be careful not to overeat. : When an attack manifests it- self, certain drugs, such as nitro- glycerin under the tongue, or amyl nitrite fumes, may be helpful. In the last year, an operation for this disease has been employed which increases the circulation to the heart with good results in some cases, NEW DRUG USED A new drug, known as khellin, which is derived from a plant that grows in the eastern Mediter- ranean countries, has been report- ed to have been used with success in the treatment of some cases of angina pectoris. This drug has been krfown to medical science for many years as a relaxing drug in the treatment of kidney pain.
