MONDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1947 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU-- It's a Question of Eyebrows ! silky selves? Do you watch for every new little fuzzer, pounce upon it, it out by the roots, fling four winds? You do? You be spanked. eyebrowless look does you. serve the lovelies of the silver screen. Eyebrows that fail to meet Na- like mama, know best-- give warn- ing that you should confine your- self to minor corrections, The space between them must be kept clear and little shafts that stray outside the fold must be removed. But to form an entirely new pattern of a single marching line of hairs may destroy the good-looks with which you were born.. This practice has done that little thing many times. The explanation is, of course, that, once a girl starts tweezing, she be- comes fascinated with the diversion and can't stop. Deleting the growth from the lower border means that the eye- brow is placed too high, making the eyes look smaller. If the nose is long, it is wise to have a fairly wide space between the eyebrows, Keep the inner ter- minal on a line with the inner cor- ner of the eye. Girls who like to extend their brows with a crayon should leave at least one inch of space between the far terminal and the hair line at the temple. The thin, pencil-line eyebrow has a particularly unhappy effect upon the woman with a full, curved face and heavy features; it calls atten- tion to facial defects. The present trend favors eye- »\ - <2 H nda. The thin eyebrow has an unhappy effect on the woman with a full face. * bb brows of normal proportions. That isn't always easy. Continued weed- ing hag weakened the papillae from which the shafts emerge, and new hairs sometimes do not appear. If that is your trouble, friction your eyebrows with mineral oil. It pro- duces a pleasing glitter and may help the growth. If you need a deeper coloring and prefer the crayon to mascara, sharpen the pencil, apply with tiny strokes, the way the hair grows. By that method of application you will not press into th® flesh, make your precious map appear untidy. The best color for blondes and brunettes is a dark brown. Black offers too great a contrast to the skin, The Movie Column By HELEN BANNERMMAN Canadian Press Staff Writer There's a real-life scene missed out of "The Beginning Or the End," Metro - Goldwyn-Mayer's film of the development of the atomic bomb--the missing scene --(goes in between the scenes where Maj.-Gen, Leslie R. Groves (played by Brian Donlevy) learns he is to head Manhattan Project and the one in which, backed by his confidential secretary, Mrs, Jean O'Leary, he outlines the pro- ject to a picked group of military, scientific and maunfacturing lea- ders. In between Mrs. O'Leary learn- ed what her boss' New York was. "The General had been slipping off to mysterious meetings and keeping some of his papers locked up till finally it got to the point where I told him I couldn't do my work . properly if I didn't know what he was doing," Mrs. O'Leary told me while holidaying briefly in New York. "Even then he didn't actually tell me what it was all about, He just gave me some articles from scientific journals on nuclear physics and atomic speculation. It was worse than trying to put a jig-saw puzzle together." Mrs. O'Leary, an attractive brown-haired widow with a 15- year-old daughter, is played by blond Audrey Trotter who was picked for the important role partly because there is a striking resemblance between them, except for the difference in hair color. In the film she became "Miss" O'- Leary to save explanations when she and Col. Jeff Nixon (Robert Walker) fall in love. "Since"the Colonel didn't exist in himself but was a composite of several of Gen. Groves' assist- ants, the love affair is fictitious too." Mrs. O'Leary said. "I felt terribly gypped when I saw the Londoner Awarded LO.D.E. Scholarship At the meeting of the Provincial Executive of the IODE. last Thursday in Hamilton, four inter- esting reports were made. The Ontario award for the I.O. D.E. post-graduate scholaw:hip (Overseas) under the I.O.D.E. First War Memorial, has been given to Mr. John M. Harrington, London, Ont. Its value is $1,500. Mr. Har- will commence his studies in a British University next au- tumn., The post-war service convener re- ported 9,969 articles of clothing valued at $4,714.54 had been sent overseas during the past month. The need for the continued support of all post-war projects of the Order was stressed. The second War Memorial Cam= paign chairman reported that to date the sum of $153,865.21 had been raised by chapters in Ontario. A new chapter of the I.O.D.E. has been organized at Lakefield, Ont. MEAT COUPON DONATIONS Voluntary donations of valid meat coupons by Canadian consu- mers, from the time this plan was started by a group' of Victoria, B, C citizens last spring up to the e.nd of the year, amounted to 1,- 686,337 coupons.

BUNDESEN, M.D. NOW is the time of year when many people not only contract virus pneumonia, but ever present, too, is our old winter enemy--the common cold. physicians For years now, and the "man in the (street" have must in honesty admit is no known method either of pre- venting or limiting colds or even of overcoming them rapidly when once they have developed. A Small Organism The cold is probably caused by a virus, the smallest of all disease- producing organisms and the one which, generally, we know least about. It is hoped that a concerted la tory effort both in America and abroad will be made in the future to learn more about the virus responsible for the cold so that a preventive vaccine may be develop- ed Colds in themselves are probably not dangerous although, of course, they cause a great loss of time from work. Their chief danger lies in the fact that they open the door to secondary infection with germs such as streptococci, staphylococci, and pneumococci causing pneumon- ia. In view of this fact the modern man is lucky to have the advan- tages of such things as sulfonamide drugs and penicillin. Lessens Symptoms In many cases, the administra- tion of these preparations not only seems to lessen the severity of the symptoms, but also helps in pre- venting infections of the middle ear, the sinuses and the lungs. By all means the sulfonamides or peni- cillin should be used in most cases, under the doctor's direction, when complications of a cold develop, particularly when they are due to streptococci, staphylycoccl or penu- mococei, In some instances it is recom- mended that the sulfonamide drugs be used in the form of a spray into the nose or throat. In others thie use of a penicillin solution gpray into fhe nose, throat or both is re- commended. In some instances the penicillin may be given by injection under the skin or taken by mouth. A person with a cold of any se- verity will do best if he remains in bed at rest. This not only will help him get well faster but will also keep him frcm coming in contact with well persons and spreading the in- fection to others. The diet should be moderate, well- balanced and, of course, plenty of fluids should be taken. If fever is present, it is always well to have a physician, since the fever may in- dicate the beginning of one of the many cold complications. Household Hint Chamois should be washed in lukewarm water, using rich suds, The stubborn spots of soil should be scrubbed lightly with a' stiff "brash! Rinse the chamois sevéral times in lukewarm softened water and hang to dry away from in- tense or artificial heat. Crumple the chamois in your hands several times while it is drying to prevent its becoming stiff when dry, : Wash your kitchen knives promptly after use in hot, soapy water, and dry thoroughly. Do not let cutlery remain in water, as moisture may loosen the handles. It is a good idea to keep a pan of hot soapsuds in the sink for quickly washing knives and other utensils as you use them in pre- paring a meal. This plan makes dishwashing easier at the end of a meal, and saves clutter in the kitchen, Gay Enchanter 4652 | SIZES 12-20 Anne Addams Such a dashing carefree air to this dirndl!

You know! Bright red circles on the cheeks vivid lipstick, mascara laid on the eyelids with too heavy a stroke, Some women have given up counterfeit 'blushes. Pallor is becoming to some women, especi- ally those with dark eyes, dark hair, finely-textured, transparent skins, Oftimes the rich, golden complexion appears at its best when it is without the synthetic touch. The mirror, the seeing eye, good taste and judgment should direct one, Some of our bedizened sisters are completely out of beau- ty line. They do too much to make themslves lovelier, miss the mark, look worse than if they left well enough alone, Rouge Compact If the rouge compact is one's constant prop and companion one should learn how to use it to best advantage. If the face is round, forehead narrow,. chin full, use the rosy pigment high on the cheekbones. Touch the chin lightly; it will appear to be less * * prominent, go ment, When cream rouge is employ- ed it should be put on in tiny dots, then blended with the finger tips, after which the lamb's wool pow- der pad should go over the bord- ers of the application very light- ly. into A Fair Skin The fairer the color of the skin, the lighter the hair, the more re- straint on synthetic aids, The deli- cate loveliness of the blonde needs little retouching; it is gild- ing the lily. The brunette, if she has flair, wears her clothes smart- ly, can commit make-up murder and get away with it. If the skin is inclined to be sal- low, raspberry shades of rouge and lipstick should be , avoided they can make the face look greenish, Orange-reds are the best bet, There are some new shades of rouge that are much like the tone of a deep, ripe ap- ricot. The blondes will love them, They make the skin take on a gol- den cast, ; After applying ilpstick, be sure to blot it with a cleansing tissue. This will avoid a glaring look. Fashion IT ISN'T EASY, to' choose from among the wonderful silk prints available this year. Black silk crepe, printed with a design ol huge off- white lily petals and.green leaves, is used for a handsome dress with long torso lines and a deep square neckline with self-banding and. a big bow. Skirt has a cascade of handkerchief drarery, and a neat- ly tailored self-belt. EE IE RATHER LATE in the season for velvet suit, but we've seen it around town lately at smart spots. A beau- tiful suit of black velvet has a long, fitted jacket, scalloped all the way dawn the cut away front. The deep collarless neckline is scalloped too. RB. THE BROWN FAMILY -- both in furs and fabrics--is doing right well this season, Nice for afternoon wear is a dress of light brown silk satin made with a deep bertha collar in lieu of sleeves. Long bodice has side closing with self-colored discs. Skirt is slim, slightly flared at hem.

While they were light- ing their candles, the group joined in singing one verse of "In Christ there is no 'East or West." It. was significant that those who presented the drama which depicted the spreading of the Gospel to parts of the world In early days can, as Canadian Girls In Training also be witnesses or disciples for Christ today, by accepting their theme, "Ye Shall Be Witnesses'. Several contests were enjoyed, pre- pared by Mrs. Brown. A Jjsnlighs of the evening was the judging of a baking contest to which six girls contributed: Jean Brown, Ruth McNeely, Margaret Brown, Marilyn Booth, Christine Gray and Norma Booth, Mrs. Stephen Saywell judged the contest and praised highly the | effort of the girls. | After lunch, the evening was brought to a close with the singing of 'Taps' and 'Sing Your Way Home', Tells What Increase In Prices Is Legal Because comments about the price of restaurant meals and also of ice cream are being heard, the follow- ing information from Harriet Par- sons, Educational Secretary, Con- sumer Branch, Wartime Prices and Trade Board, will be welcomed by all who are wondering about the in- creased rrices and asking thewmn- selves what increase in price is le- gal.

Since I am going to invite both boys and girls, should I ask the boys and tell each one to invite the girl I know is his "best girl?" 2. Would it be proper for me to invite a certain boy. I know very well, to be my partner, tell- ing him the occasion of the par- ty? 3. If those I invite ask about gifts, should I tell them there are or aren't to be any? 'J.B, 1. No. Since apparently you know all the girls and boys, it is vou yourself, the hostess, who should do the inviting. It is only when the hostess doesn't know enough girls or boys to balance the nomber of each, that she asks some of the guests to invite otn- ers. 2. Yes. It is quite proper for you to ask this "certain boy" to help you with the entertaining. 3. I doubt very much if the guests would ask you about whe- ther or not they are to bring gifts (although they might ask each other' about this). However, if anyone does, I suggest you be cas- ual about your answer, saying perhaps something like, "Oh, this is more of 'just a party' than a birthday party!" Special Problem for Processional, Recessional Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My daughter's wedding party is to consist of: two ushers, best man, one maid of honor, one bridesmaid, and a junior brides- maid (eight years old). Will you please be so kind as to give us your suggestions as to the proper processional and recessional? The processional: first, the two ushers, walking together; next, the bridesmaid; next, junior bridesmaid; then maid of honor; last, bride and her father or who- ever is to escort her. For the re- cessional I suggest the reverse of the processional: first, bride and bridegroom, the only "couple" in the recessional; next, maid of honor, alone (of course if the bride wishes, the maid of honor may walk with the best man); next, junior bridesmaid alone; bridesmaid alone; last, the two ushers, together, (If the 8-year-old girl is not exceptionally tall for her age, she may be a flower girl, instead of a junior bridesmaid. A junior brides- maid is generaliy of that in-be- tween age from'a tall ten to six- teen. If you decide to have her as a flower girl, she would walk directly before the bride and her father in the processional; and directly after the bride and groom in the recessional). First on the Finger . , . The Wedding Ring Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Is the wedding ban gagement. ring worn finger? or the en- rst on the : M.M. The wedding -ring should be put first on the finger . . , then the engagement ring is put on above the wedding ring, The wed- ding ring should not be put above the engagement ring.
