THE DAILY TI MES-GAZETTE PAGE EIGHT | BEAUTY FOR YOU Problem of Dry Skin By HELEN JAMESON Wise nature provided the hu- man skin with a wonderful oiling device in the form of a system of sebaceous glands located in the underlying tissues. They help to weather-proof your skin and keep the cutaneous surface from flak- ing and cracking. Without them our facial coverings would be like parchment and we would be sub- ject to premature wrinkles. It sometimes happens that the little oil gushers slow up, go on strike. The cause may be sluggisn circulation, although practically all dermatologists are of the opinion that diet is a factor. As an excess of fats in the diet will excite the glands, a lack of it will practically put them out of business. Women who have gone through a reducing campaign, deleting fats and sweets, have found that the character of the complexion changed from nor- mal to arid. The 'drys" often develop a fear of soap, believing that it is too dry- ing. It is a well-known fact that men have better complexions than women and they lather their faces every day to remove their incipient beards. Shaving soaps are of extra- mild, fine quality, and it may' be worth while for the dry-skinned woman to try one of these me- diums. If dryness persists, she should use a cosmetic meal that is cleansing as well as soothing. Or, she can try this treatment that permits the use of soap and prevents drying results: Use a thin cleansing cream or oil. Remove the first application and spread on a second one. Dip a washcloth in warm, soapy water; place it over the face, holding close. Don't move the cloth about. Rinse with warm water, dry gently, ap- ply a heavy cream, permitting it to remain on over night. The flesh will lap it up. Casual creamings are not enough when the epidemis is dry and sensitive. : Cold water is not recommended for these cases, nor should very hot water be used. It is to be regretted that cos- metic meals are not more popu- The "drys" often develop a fear of soap. * lar. They contain oil that is solvent and penetrating; the bran part of the meal acts like a complexion brush, is very cleansing. The skin is left smooth, of velvety Softness. When applying a cream there should be i hn of friction to ex- ercise the tiny fibers under the skin, tone the tissues, and hustle up circulation, Astringents should be avoided; so should tonic lotions containing alcohol. Both are drying. Before exposure to strong sunlight or harsh winds, cream should be used. A foundation cosmetic acts as a protective agent but one should use the 'oily tpe. Special foundation creams for dry skin will be found at cosmetic countefs. WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT Answering the Telephone? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I loathe the habit some people have of saying "Yes?" when they answer the telephone. How do you feel about this, Mrs. Beeckman ? Rosalie B.

Hostess Does Not Appear At Stag Dinner Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My husband is planning to give a stag dinner here in our home next month, his guests to be a group of his fraternity brothers who are to discuss with him a certain college project. We have decided on all the details of the dinner (menu, extra service, and so forth). I think that, as hostess in our home, I should greet the guests and occasionally appear during the dinner and after dinner to see that everything is provided. But my husband insists that it is absolutely incorrect for the wife to appear at her husband's stag din- ner. Which of us is right about this? ' Reader Your husband is.

BUNDESEN, M.D. HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE CCNQUEST of the ills which come with advancing age is the goal which modern medical sci- ence has set itself. While victory is still far on, the great amount of research being done along these lines today holds great promise. One of the most important of the problems affecting the health of middle-aged and elderly people is high blood pressure. If it could be sclved, hundreds of thousands of men and women could be saved from illness and death. Exact Cause Unknown So far we have not been able to discover the exact cause of figh blood pressure. Many theories have been advanced. Of these, the one now most in favor holds that it is due to spasm of the muscular walls of the network of blood ves- sels in the abdomen known as the splanchnic vascular region. These muscles are controlled by certain nerves of the involuntary nervous system. It is an increase in the action of these nerves that is re- sponsible for the tightening up of the arteries. Some surgeons have devised an operation for the relief of high blood pressure which involves the cutting of the over.stinulating nerves. While it does not bring about a cure of the high blood pressure it does seem, in many in. stances, to lessen the severity of the symptoms and to prolong life. Just which patients should be selected for the operation is often a difficult matter to determine. However, there is no question that when there is extensive damage to the kidney present, the cperation should not be performed. Further- more it should not be done when there is extensive hardening of the arteries, a condition which often accompanies high blood pressure. The operation is not often per- formeqd in those over fifty years of age. . - SThus, Drs. Paul G. Flothow and Hunter J. MacKay of Seattle, Wash., think that any patient un. | der fifty years of age, who suffers | from (igh blood pressure without any great degree of hardening of the arteries or loss cf kidney func- tion, should be given the benefit of this type of operation. The cperation may be carried | out in various ways. Some favor cutting of the nerves both within the chest cavity and within the abdomen. It would appear hat with this procedure the results are scmewhat better than with the cutting of the nerves in either area alone. A number of tests have been sug- gested to determine whether or not the operation will give beneficial results. These consist of giving the. patient one of various prepar- ations which put fim to sleep, and determining the bleed pressure beth before and after the prepara- tion is given. If a drop in the blood pressure occurs while the patient is asleep, it is felt that the operation will be beneficial. Questions and Answers 8. 0.: Will you please tell me scmething about tularemia? How long does the serum given remain in the system? Answer: Tularemia Is a disease caused by a germ known as the bacillus tularensis, which is trans. mitted to a man 'by handling in. fected animals. Rabbits, particu. cularly, are infected. Certain' lice or fleas also carry the disease to man. : The general symptoms are chills, fever, and weakness; in scme cases, death results. There is not much which can be done to prevent the | disease, although these who han. dle rabbits should wear gloves | whenever possible. Of course, all | rabbit meat should be thoroughly 200ked. The serum which is given in the treatment of the disease would ex- ert its effect within a short period of time. It would cause no diffi. culty in the body no matter how long it remained. round oyster crackers in oyster soup or oyster stew? Or is it bet- ter to put them on the bread-and- butter plate and eat them separate from the stew? SP. It's correct to put the crackers in the oyster soup or stew ... but not too many at a time, please. (But it's correct, too, if you prefer, to take the little crackers to your bread-and-butter plate, and eat them from there, dry and crisp.) ..

A company of young profes. sional actors has just set out on an eight-week tour, taking their own scenery properties, costume and lighting along with them, The company is giving 64 per- formances in scfiools, village halls, canteens and social centres. The pregram which was planned with children over seven particularly in mind, traces the history of the theatre in Britain from the tradi- tional balled to the modern play. The mimed ballad of "Robin Hood and Allan.a.Dale" is followed by the mediaeval miracle play "St. George and the Dragon." St. George is the most successful item on the program for young children, with its eatchy rhymes, duels be. tween St. George and his enemies, and its comic doctor. Biggest thrill of all is when the youngsters are allowed to come up on the stage and try on the animal masks worn in the play. Two scenes from Shakespeare-- the quarrel between Oberon and Titania from "A Midsummer Night's Dream," and the wooing of Kath. erine in "The Taming- of the Shrew", are saved for high school audiences. The same goes for the school scene from Oscar Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest." Modern drama is introduced by a one-act play written by two mem. bers of the company, The various items are linked to- gether by a spoken commentary describing the history and gradual development of the theatre in Bri. tain, and there's plenty of time for the children to ask questions-- as well as try on masks--when the show is over. The travelling playhoue has been a great success. Many of the child. ren had never seen a play before, though most had been to a movie or two. It's hoped the tour will stimulate the children's interest in acting so that theyll soon start getting up shows on their own. It's likely, too, that the scheme will spread to other rural areas of Bri- tain. __ Wife Preservers 4-2. E.Ct0.
