~\ THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1947 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN | BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Complexion Packs By HELEN It is a good idea to supplement the washing and creaming of the complexion now and then with a pack or mask. Many beauticians give these treatments, have confi- dence in them, It is no trick at all to give them to oneself at home. A nice diversion when the family is away and no special task presents itself, If a member of the family catches you during this beauty rit- ual, it is likely that you will be told that you look like something that crawled out from under a stone. Alas, too true. But think how grand you will look afterward. "For y'ars and y'ars, buttermilk has had a reputation as a mild, harmless bleaching agent. Combin- ed with almond meal, it makes a perfect pack. The woman who sud- denly found that her skin has lost its lily white look, has become dingy, almost sallow, will find it of value. Mix the buttermilk and the meal until the mass is the consist- ency of whipped cream. Spread it on a clean skin surface. Only a light film is necessary. Go about your business for half an hour. Wring a large washcloth out of steaming hot water, hold close to the flesh, Repeat several times, then remove the mask thoroughly. Now is the time for action with the massage cream. Use freely, tap and ~slap for five minutes. LE SR The kaolin pack is our old friend clay beauty shops have used for many years, It is refined fuller's earth, It is a cleanser that is effec- tive, is the friend of the girl who is worried because the pores of her face are filled with atmospheric dust. There are two formulas. If the skin is oily the kaolin is combined with witch hazel. If the skin is dry, mineral oil is used instead of witch hazel. Add one or the other to the pow- der until you have a mixture that can be handled. Wash the face tho- roughly with soap, rinse with warm water, dry, then on with the pack. Start at tne collar bones, work upward. Now is the time for a pleas- ant half hour of reading. At the JAMESON Buttermilk is a agent. LE end of this period the application will be dry, may begin to flake: Re= move with warm waver, then on with a cream, The flesh will be flushed. Many a horrid little black- head will have been evicted from its snug little home. ade de White of egg, well beaten, is sup- posed to have astringent qualities. It is used when tissues have soften- ed. Proceed as with other packs but remove with cold water instead of hot. For a time the yeast pack was popular. Scme facial operators con- tinue to use it, especially for treat- ment of blackheads. Dissolve a cake in the smallest possible amount of warm water, and apply with flat- tened fingers. It is claimed that it has a way of burrowing into the tiny channels of the skin, bringing forth the deposits that clog them. WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT _ A Golden Wedding Party? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKEMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My mother and father will cele- brate their Fiftieth Wedding anni. versary the latter part of next month, and my sister and I are planning Open House for them. (1) The actual date is on a Monday, but we would like to have the Open House on the previous day, Sunday. Would this be correct? (2) Would 4 to 9 be correct hours? We are serving drinks, canapes, coffee and tea, and wedding cake. Should we serve something else . . . we want to have enough. (3) Who cuts the wedding cake? (4) If gifts are re- ceived, are they opened, or just plac- ed on a table? (5) Who receives the guests? (6) Is it proper to use paper cups, or should we use glasses? (7) The foods and drinks will be on a long buffet table, with a flower centrepiece 'and lighted candles. Should the guests serve themselves, or should we serve them? Marie A. 1. It is quite proper (and is often done) to have the celebration of such an important occasion on a Sunday, when the actual date falls on a week day. But generally the Sunday after the actual date is chosen. (2) These hours, 4 to 9, aren't consistent with your menu. Your menu is a tea-menu, and could appropriately be served from, say, 3 to 7. (For the later hours, 7 to 9, which cover a meal hour, dinner or supper, you should serve something more considerable.) For the 4 to 9 hours, you might add sandwiches, salad, and so forth. (3) Your moth er, the "bride," cuts' the first piece of the anniversary cake, and, as at the wedding reception, shares it with the "bridegroom." (4) The gifts should be opened . . . not to open them might certainly seem to sug- gest a lack of enthusiasm and ap- preciation on the part of the guests of honor. (5) Your mother and father, the guests of honor, and you and your sister, the hostesses, should receive the guests. (6) Use paper cups only if there are to be too many guests to provide china or glass ones for them. For a small sum you may be able to rent such items as plates, cups, glasses, from a local caterer . . . or why not borrow them from kind neighbors and friends? (7) Arrange the buffet items so that the guests can easily and conveniently serve themselves. Or you might in- vite several women relatives and friends to be deputy hostesses, two for each hour of the party, to pre- side over the serving from the buf- fet table. Proper To Have Junior Bridesmaid Dear Mrs. Beeckman: In my wedding party I am to have four bridesmaids and a maid of honor. I want very much to have as a junior bridesmaid a 15-year-old cousin whom I dearly love. But I have been told by several friends that since I am to have four brides. maids as well as my honor attendant it is not necessary, really not proper, for me to have a junior bridesmaid ur NOoA JI (ony) SIU SI 'osre I De a bridesmaid, will 'you please tell me then the order of the processional?

Men Invited To Engagement Parties Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Is it proper to invite men to an engagement party, or should only girls be asked? : T, N. It Is proper to invite men to an engagement party . . .either the party given to announce the en- gagement or the party that cele- brates the engagemen. (The en- gagement-announcement party is given by the girl's parents; a party to celebrate the engagement may be given by a relative or friend of either the bride-elect or the groom-elect.) (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to answer questions submitted by read- ers.) Change Your Lipstick As Costume Demands Today a woman should think about her lipstick, the only frankly artificial color on her face, as part of her costume. By selecting the right shade of lipstick to harmonize with 'her clothes, she can wear the costume colors she never dared try before, To simplify lipstick selection, a well-known beautician his prepared a color index, using nine basic col- ors, to which she has keyed the three lipstick families -- true red, blue reds, and yellow reds. 'With black clothes she suggests a selection from either the true reds, blue reds or yellow reds; navy -- true reds and blue reds; beige--true reds and yellow reds; gray -- true reds and yellow reds; brown--true reds and yellow reds; pink -- soft blue reds and 'yellow reds; blue-- true reds, blue reds and yellow reds; yellow--blue reds and strong yellow reds; lime--soft blue reds and light yellow reds. GARTER FOR THE PRINCESS Somerville, Mass, -- So that Princess Elizabeth could have "something old, something new, something borrowed and some- thing blue," at her coming mar- riage Nov. 2) to Lieut. Philip Mountbatten, she was sent a blue garter by Mrs, Ella Wehage, In return, Mrs. Wehage yester- day received a note of thanks and an invitation from the Prin- cess, through a lady in waiting, for a tea to be given at St, Jame's Palace Nov, 17, Mrs. Wehage said she would have to turn down the invitation. Telephone Prattle Annoys Most Men A girl can wreck the good impres- sion she makes upon a man by prattling over the telephone when he's busy. If the boy friend is working, try to resist calling him. If you do call, make it snappy. X He may be in the presence of his boss or of fellow employes when you call, which can cause him embar- rassment if his girl friend is too talkative. . He may be the very young guy in the office whom the switchboard op- erator likes to tease, and your calls will supply just the one needed to get her going. A man is slow to for- give a girl for that. There's still another reason to be cautions, Your friend may not be encouraged by the place he works ® use the telephone for personal chit- chat. This is a situation which can cause a man acute embarrassment, if his gir] persists in calling him, Go into your long talks, if you must, with another idle friend, put be sure that she is idle, Audience Outshines. Artists at 'Met' By HAL BOYLE New York -- Bosoms attracted more attention than "bravos" as the Metropolitan Opera opened its 63rd season with enough 100-watt dia- monds in the glittering audience to pale the house lights. The "new look" was reflected in a number of daringly low-cut evening dresses that brought wolf calls from bystanders assembled in the lobby and on the streets to watch fashion's darlings parade into the diamond horseshoe. tier. Therew ere acres of white ermine --enough to snowblind a careless man--subdued only by the tawny simplicity of broad expanses of ex- pensive mink. 5 As is usual in the pomp of open- ing night at the old "Met," the cast of Verdi's gaudy "The Masked Ball" played second-fiddle to the specta- tors, gathered in splendor for the kick-off of New York's social season. There were the Duchess of Talley- rand; Argentine Ambassador Oscar Ivanissevich; Mr. and Mrs. Walter Chrysler, Jr.; Thomas J. Watson, the cash register man, and Mrs. Watson; Warren Austin, wife of the chief United States delegate to the United ' Nations; Opera Singers Gladys Swarthout and Dorothy Kirsten, and Prank Sinatra, who also sings. Mrs. George Drew, wife of the Premier of Ontario, attended as a guest of her father, Edward John- son, general manager of the Metro- politan and former . resident of Guelph. Two other hardy perennials of opera openings were also present-- Mrs. Dasha Paretzkin, who stood in line 30 hours to become for the sec- ond successive year the first "standee" admitted, and Mrs. George Washington Kavanaugh, wearing her normal six diamond bracelets. She didn't drop a carat. Mrs. Kavanaugh lost a $5,000 bracelet at the 1946 opening and paid the Brooklyn housewife who found it a $250 reward. y The opera itself was something of an anti-climax. "The Masked Ball" is an elegant extravaganza, sung in Italian, of a Swedish king who makes free-and-easy with the wife of his secretary and is subsequently stabbed to death by the enraged husband.

There is scarcely a dish in which you cannot use apples and usually they are "never-fail" recipes. In spite of the fact that the old stand- bys, applesauce and apple pie, are always the family's favourites, there are indications that readers want to add new dishes to their repertoire. Take a Tip 1. Aprle sauce, smooth and clear, may be combined with cooked rice and whipped cream. Chill and serve with a spoonful of red jelly. 2. Apple sauce is something dif- ferent when jellied and served with custard or cream. Pour 2 cups of sauce through a sieve, then add to softened gelatine (one tablespoon gelatine in % cup cold water). Add a dash of lemon juice. Chill and when beginning to set, add a table- spoon of chopped nuts. Pour into wet moulds; chill and then un- mould on pretty plates. Serve with cream or custard. 3. Baked apples are always popu- lar. For something special, peel a third of the way down and {ill cav~ ity with mincemeat, then bake in moderate oven to prevent bursting of skin. 4.
