SATURDAY, JANUARY 4, 1947 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE . PACE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU-- : Lovely Chin And Throat Contour BY HELEN JAMESON Old Pop Tfine has & mean way of taking a woman by the throat. He gets his claws in, makes it stringy. Or he takes a notion to form a lit- tle hammock under the chin. He couldn't do these unkind acts if one had been on one's guard, start- ed early to gather ammunition for a life] war against birthdays, A woman must take out beauty in- surance, especially if she is y or more, When the fragrant emol- lent is spread over the sacred complexion, the neck must get its full share, not only of the cosmetic, but also of petting and patting as From the centre jaw line down to where an Adam's apple would be, i thick layer o! ues er the collarbones are interlacing muscles, All this fleshy substance will, remain normal if a woman is. in good health, if she does not per- mit herself to gain too much weight, or to suffer from malnutrition. Ov- erweight brings the spare chin and peck tissues. Underweight causes fiddle strings and necklace creases. Always, when considering beauty ills, we must realize that hy- | genic habits are a factor for well- being. * It is the woman who has taken excellent care of herself who remains youthful of appearance in the autumn of life. Few women understand that gas- ly massage, together labric tion, will keep the face and neck in form, free of the beauty troubles that beset them in middle-age. Certain exercises are helpful when throat fibres have lost tone " and {here are signs of sag along the jaw e, Sit erect in a gtraight-back chair, hands on the hips. Keep the chest lifted, 'Take deep breaths as you make the various movements. A good opportunity to air-wash your lungs. Lapping up the oxygen will perk up circulation, give coloring to the complexion, With the head held level, lift the chin slowly. Keep the teeth tight together, endeavour to pull up the muscles, With the chin held high, move the head from side to side with all the muscular effort you can muster. Back to first position and repeat. turally hold their heads beautifully. They have an air of charm, of dig- nity, For them there is little wor- ry about the neck going into a de- cline because the fibres are strong and resilient. Muscles cannot be- come flabby when they are con- stantly working. With the head balanced, every movement is a form of exercise, Women who are accustomed to slee] on high pillows that throw the head forward and cause throat tissues to fall into folds, are likely to find, to their dismay, that while the face and hands are still young in appearance, the neck looks old. Deep, fresh-air breathing, scientiously pursued each day, do much to restore conditions normal, ill to The Movie Column By IRIS WILSON Canadian Press Staff Writer British producers came to the forefront in moviedom this last year by winning five places in what the New York Film Critics called the 10 best of 1946. Three of the 10 were American made, while France and Italy each took one place among the laurel winners, The list, in alphabetical order since no comparative ratings could be made: i "A Walk in the Sun" (American); "Brief Encounter" (British); "Dead of Night" (British); "Henry V" (American J0pen Oy" atin: "Stairway to Heaven" (British); "The Best Years of Our Lives" (American); "The Li ay ish); and "The ell + er's Daughter" (French). Commenting on the overwhelm- ing majority of British films, Arch- er Winsten, New York Post movie columnist, said: "There is no good purpose in denying that American flilms have hit a new low in quality while en- joying one of their most prosper- ous years." winsten said that out of hund- reds of other Hollywpod products mentioned only three others were seriously considered: 'The Spiral Staircase," "The Killers," and "Smokey." "If Hollywood producers can't re- alizé how badly they have failed this year in matching the best from other countries, then the future of American Alms is pretty dark in- eed."

BUNDESEN, M.D. ATOMIC medicines may be the next great news in the never-end- ing fight against disease. Already one substance--radioactive jodine-- made by use of the cyclotron or atom-splitting machine, shows promise of furnishing us with a swifter, surer weapon against toxic goitre than we ever had before. Thus, the same science which created the tremendous destructive force of the atom bomb may be the future means of saving innumerable lives and preventing untold suffer- It is too early yet to do anything but hope, but first results indicate that hope is; well-founded, at least s0 far as the. treatment of goitre is concerned. ,. .. Enlarged Thyroid Gland Goitre simply means an enlarge- ment of the thyroid gland. Some- times this enlargement takes place without producing 'any adverse symptoms, This condition is called simple goitre. In other instances, the gland not only enlarges but pro- duces an excess of its secretion to bring about the condition we call hyperthyroidism or toxic goitre. The symptoms include loss of weight and strength, rapid heart beat, nervousness, and symptoms affecting the eyes. In some in stances, the eyeballs protrude, Toxic goitre, if allowed to continue with- out proper treatment may result in permanent damage to the heart and other tissues. For many years the X-ray has been used along with other forms of treatment for hyperthyroidism. Studies have shown that with X- ray treatment about one-third of the patients are improved, one- third are cured, while the remain- der are not benefited. Iodine also is used in the treatment of toxic goitre. 'When given in the proper dose it tends to relieve the symp- toms at least temporarily, so that other measures may be employed. Radioactive Iodine Drs. Earle M. Chapman and Rob- ley D. Evans of Cambridge, Massa- chusetts, have used. radio-active fodine in treating a number of patients with hyperthyroidism, The preparation is given by mouth, Af- ter it is administered, the iodine collects for the most part in the thyroid gland. The radioactive iodine in the gland delivers internal radiation which is much like X-ray treatment in its effect. They treated 22 patients over a period of about three years, Four- teen patients responded well to just a single dose of the radioactive Week's Program Adelaide House Oreh dezvous Club Executive Ren TUESDAY Junior Girls' Y Club To Keep Fit (Afternoon) Bowling (Adelaide House) Tap Dancing Intermediate Girls' ¥ Club Sketching Club Young Business Women's Council To Keep Fit (Evening) Film Council WEDNESDAY Archery (Girls) Archery (Boys) Brownies Guides Archery (Adults) THURSDAY Handicraft--Ceramics Record Club Archery (Advanced) Handicraft (Glove-Making, Eve) University Women's Club FRIDAY ub After Church Fireside OFF-COLOR The American Optical Company of Southbridge, Mass, studied : the incidence of color blindness in the United States and discovered that $0 per cent of the nation's color- blind are male, Be Charming In This Look your most glamorous In this robe, Pattern 4958, for your leisure hours.

Only two of the patients were not cured and these two improved to a great ex- tent. . Patients who did not respond to other forms of treatment reacted well to the administration of the radioactive iodine. Reactions much like those which occur following X- ray treatments were noted in six patients who were given large doses of the radioactive iodine. It would appear from these re- sults that treatment of toxic goitre with radioactive jodine is simple, easily carried out and without any serious dangers. Of course, the sub- stance should be administered only under the direction of the physi- clan, COMING OUTSTANDING SPEAKER E. A.

Glamorizing uv Guard Against Sleeplessness By HELEN FOLLETT ' A well-balanced health program keeps movie star Marguerite Chapman fit, "* LJ TAKE IT from your good-looks reporter; if you can fall asleep like a baby, awaken refreshed in the morning, you are a better-looking woman than you would be if you tossed half the night. If you are a poor sleeper you are using up en- ergy during the day and not get- ting your batteries recharged. Continued loss of sleep means that you should consult the family doctor and find out what's the mat- ter with you. It may. be some di- gestive disturbance, or nervous ex- haustion, or just the bad habit of worrying. Troubles seem worse at night, when the house is quiet and everybody else is asleep. Awaken to sunshine and an interesting day and away the worries fly. Too Much Excitement Excitement and nervousness will * * keep the sandnian away. Drag home at a late hour from a gay party where there has been talking, danc- ing, smoke-filled air, and you won't be able to settle down to a state of relaxation. You'll keep thinking aboit what Molly &iid and how Katherine looked in that horror of a dress she woré, Wheels go 'round inside your héad. Sleep will not re- fresh you. You'll have to wait until the next night to catch up. There is no insurance against sleeplessness, but there is help; a good level mattress, plenty of fresh air, a dull book to read and five minutes of breathing exercise 'while you are flat om-your back in bed.

Disposing of My It was the children's poet, Long- fellow, who wrote those stimulating words, "Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think." A beautiful way to take to your heart these urging words of the poet who loved children, is to save your Christmas cards and send them to children, particularly to children who are sick, at home or in hospitals. Appeal to your chil- dren to save their cards too, to give to less fortunate than they. Gather all the cards you can (Christmas cards and other greet- ing cards), and for an "extra added attraction", loosel€af x yourself) and some tubes or jars of paste or some rolls of transparent tape so that the children them. selves can have the delight of as- sembling the cards and pasting them in the groupings and patterns they consider most effective, 'One bright-eyed little patient once told me she preferred to have the cards loose so that she could be her own "book-decorator." . It's touching and heart-warming to hear these little patients, sick at home, or temporarily in a childrens ward, or, alas destined for a long stay in a hospital; exclaim joyously about the pictures, watch them thoose their favorite designs and favorite colors, and eagerly plan their patterns for the scrapbooks. It's a good idea for you to paste the most colorful and drarhatic pic- tures on the covers of several scrap- books and let the children choose the book that appeals to them most. And they love to "swap" some of their pictures for others nearer to their heart's desire! 'The children are shehanied too given to them), such as flowers BS a ts.
