By now you must be aware that your skin takes very good care of you and requires very little in return. But, if continually abused by alkpline products, im- proper cleansing and poor dietary habits, side effects will appear, such as blemishes, large pores, wrinkles, rough, ness and general lack of healthy color. Every skin requires and de- serves a certain amount of your time and atten- tion. Like the'individual it covers, it bas a personality. Dry skin is not neces- sarily found on just the rfiature woman, it can also be the problem of ai young skin. The skini color is usually very fair and has a tendency to burn easily in the sun. The skins obvious signs are peeling and flaking, chaps easily and a general all-over taut feeling especially after washing with soap and water. Dry skin can be the result of many things: a systemie mal- function of the oi pro- ducing glands, environ- mental conditions such as dry climate, the sun, snow, wind, indoor heat- ing systems and even certain medications. Dry skin has an all over shiny look and or a rough texture with blackheads and large pores. The oil residue most frequently ap- pears in profusion on the chin, nose and forehead, commonly known as the "T" zone. Oily skin is more prone to develop- ing acne and white- heads. But the blame for these problems cannot be put solely on the fact that the skin is oily. Any combination of condit- ions may be to blame, such as improper clean- sing, hormonal imbal- ance, nerves. poor diet even humid weather. Keeping the skin in an acid balanced condition is essential. This pre- vents susceptibility to invading bacteria which can contribute to infec- tion. Combination skin is the most common skin type found. It can be found on any age skin. It is recognized by the shiny "T" zone but at the same time there is a noticeable dryness in the cheek, jawline and hairlîne areas. Black- heads and large pores are usually evident on the nose and chin. This skin type needs the most sPecialized attention. You are treating two different problems, oily and dry. The goal here is to cleanse the oily areas and lubricate the dry areas. Normal skin is rare and beautiful. It is easily noticed, because it has a fresh and healthy color, a firm moist and smooth tex- ture and freedom from blackheads and blem- ishes. This skin really does not need make up but to help retain this normal condition it does need a simple but per- sistant skin care rou- tine. The aim is to maintain its natural acid mantle. This skin type has a tendency to go dry if not taken care of properly. The skins natural acid mantle is a thin water- in-oil layer covering the stratuum corneum which aids in the biolog- ical functions of the skin and protects it from drying out. This acid mantle is mildly acidic, at a ph range of 4.5 to 5.5. By usng acid bal- anced products on your skin you are helping to maintain this natural barrier. Alkaline pro- ducts are too harsh and tend to strip off this natural barrier leaving the skin unprotected to the elements.

Bell Faces Challenges At Home and Overseas company would like the government to reduce the 45 per cent tax on the telecom- munications industry to the same level as that of manu- facturing and processing industries. These are current- ly paying about 40 per cent. "Another thing we think the government should do is raise the investment tax credit for our industry. In the United States, for example, they get a 10 per cent credit on their purchases of telecommunica- tions equipment," Mr. Inns said. The two changes would ease Bell's struggle to find capital. "Not having to borfow $250 million dollars for capital expansion every year for the next five years would help us greatly to meet the almost unbelievable growth in demand for services that we are experiencing." Looking to the future of Canada's telecommunications industry, Mr. Inns said that a breakthrough in the field of fibre optics could be revolu- tionary. Fibre optics uses a tube of glass not much thicker than a human hair to transmit telephone, communications and replaces the large copper cables now in use.

Described as the largest telecommunica- tions contract ever awarded, Bell's share in the deal is worth $1.1. "That one contract alone means millions of dollars of foreign money coming into Canada and at least 500 jobs here. "Saudi is a big job. Starting almost from scratch, we have to leave behind in five years time a fully operating telephone company," Mr. Inns said. "It's quite a challenge but I'm not sure if it is any tougher a challenge than to meet the telecommunications needs of our customers here in Canada during the next five years." "The problem is mainly one of money, of course. We estimate that during those same five years our customer demands will require capital expenditures of about six billion dollars. That's an awful lot of money." The Bell vice-president explained that some of this amount could be raised if the government were to do two things: Mr. Inns said the telephone ForaIfirrangomentsl 0GgFTSOC 0 TERPIEC~ Solve your gifting problems with *CUTFLOWERS * DRIED FLORAL ARRANGEMENTS * POTTED PLANTS (BUY 5 OR MORE POINSETTIAS OR AZALEAS FOR A WHOLESALE PRICE.)
