PAGE EIGHT THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE - 'WEDNESDAY, APRIL 14, 1948 | BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Naturally Curly Hair 'By HELEN women with na- ly s realize how lucky tI are. They don't have to shell out money two or three times a year for a permanent, spend half a day getting .it,- and then suffer disappointment if the oper- ator was not experienced and con- scientious. Their fairy godmothers must have kissed them in 'their cradles, lucky creatures. Hairdressers say that many of them do not make the most of One wonders turall their blessings. If there is the faint-4 est pattern of an undulation, it can be encouraged and strengthen- ed, the wave accented. The girl who fusses because she has a cowlick does not realize that it is the be- ginning of a wave line. If she works long enough, pets her hair, she may evenyually numbered among the curly girls. It is the aol mothers of little daughters to do everything possible to retain the spiral tendency of shafts inclined to coil. By brush- ing the hair and wrapping it over the fingers, much can be accom- plished, 'To make pigtails of locks that show the slightest inclination to kink up is a good-looks crime, is being unfair to a child. Even if she yowls for braids she shouldn't have them because, in later years, she will realize how. priceless is the curl with which one was born. 'When Curly Locks is a big girl-- doing her shampooing at home, in- stead of patronjzing a beautytor- jum--she should keep in mind that, unless the laundry job is thorough, the undulation will gradually weaken. If soap deposits are left on the shafts they will prevent the absorption of moisture in the air that tends to send the silky threads into spirals, The soap 'should be melted, and it should be bland. There should be three soapings, and three rinsing with a. bath spray and a current of water that is strong enough to rattle one's brains. When shampooing, one deals with atmospheric dust, oil sent out by sebaceous blands, dead skin scales--all of which form a combination that puts up resistance. Use plenty of elbow grease Cold water is death on waves, be they natural or the kind you buy JAMESON io. RSS Even if she yowls for braids she shouldn't have them, * + @ at the beauty shop. After the hair has been thoroughly washed, turn on the hot water and give the top- crest a good steaming. Comb out the tangles, strand by strand. While the hair is wet, sweep it away from the forehead and back at the sides, using the fine teeth of the comb for this pur- pose. Then do the push-up trick, sending the hair forward. It should fall into a perfect pattern. Pinch the edges of the wave lines to make them strong and anchor them with wave combs. The ends of the strands will have to be wound into pin curls or put up on metal curlers. Hair has to have a strong curl to form ring- llets without extra special atten- tion, . Luh Theatre Talk. By MICHAEL O'MARA Canadian Press Staff Writer Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, England -- (CP) -- Looking dimly into Shakespeare's garden from his hotel suite here, actor Esmond Knight; fighting his way back from total blindness, is content and con- fident on the oe of his first Shakespeare festival, His a wife, Nora Swinburne, and this year's leading lady at the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre here, Diana Wynyard, have taught him his part by reading to him the lines he cannot see. He now is letter-perfect in rehearsal as Grat- iano in "The Merchant of Venice." Knight was blinded jn HMS. Prince of Wales' 1941 action against the Bismarck. Surgeons removed his left eye and told him he would never see again. But he refused to give up hope of returning to the stage. At last, through heavy glasses off stage and a contact lens on stage, he can tell night from day and material things from shadows. Here in Shakespeare's country, with its quiet, storied atmosphere, he feels he has found a satisfac- tory journey's end. Knight and his fellows have made a going concern out of the theatre here, Already 50,000 seats worth £10,000 ($40,000) are sold for the first 13 weeks of the seven- month season opening April 15. The main 1948 squabble may come from a production of "Ham- let," which, it is understood, will be staged in Victorian costumes. London's Evening News has taken sides in anticipation, proclaiming: "Whatever else Shakespeare meant 'Hamlet' to be, he did not write it--this vast, far-reaching search'into the hearts and motives of men--as a verbal stuffed dummy for a clever costumier . . . Shakes- peare himself once said something about tickling the groundlings; but this, surely, is tickling the airy- fairies." No matter how the experts re- ceive what the theatre produces, it's sure to be packed at almost every performance, bad weather or good, by students, tourists, and Britons who have travelled by motor-coach and excursion train, some for hun- dreds of miles, on pilgrimages to Bie = idyllic land of Shakespeare's bi DONKEY VS DOG Port Elizabeth, South Africa -- (CP)--Fishermen here watched the death struggle between a donkey and a bulldog until the donkey tri- umphed. The bulldog hdd a grip on the donkey's leg, but shifted his grip to the throat. The donkey seiz= ed the dog in his jaws and shook his head until the dog's back was broken.

BUNDESEN, M.D. BODY'S NEED FOR PROTEIN The body is like an in that it cannot operate without fuel Give it what it needs and it per- forms its complicated tasks with amazing perfection. Deprive it of some needed element, and it will still go on for a time but with greatly diminished efficiency. Proteins are one of the substances most needed by the body. The body cannot supply proteins for itself. The food we eat must furnish them --food such as meat, milk, eggs, and whole-grain cereals--and, if it does not, the effects are quickly noted in loss of energy and endurance. Also, the abundant vitality of health is soon replaced by a feeling of general weakness and extreme fatigue, Climbing stairs, for in- stance, produces a feeling of weak- ness in the legs and tiredness out of all proportion to the effort. The heart beats slowly as a result of poor circulation. People suffering from lack of profein often feel cold. In many cases, -there is also less- ened resistance to infections, Need for Proteins In view of these important facts, we should all learn something about proteins and how to satisfy the body's need for them. All proteins are made up of sub- stances known as amino acids, some containing more, some less. Modern research has discovered that there are at lelist 10 different amino acids which the-body must have for pro- per functioning, and all of these must be supplied by the protein foods we eat. Not one of them can be manufactured by the body for itself, Hence, doctors rate proteins ac- cording to how many of these es- sential amino acids they furnish. Those which contain all ten are called complete proteins; those which do not are reganded as in- complete, Most Valuable Proteins Proteins of greatest value to the body come from such foods as meat, milk, eggs, fish, fowl and cheese. Vegetable proteins, such as those from beans, peas and whole-grain cereals, belong to the incomplete class. They, are healthful but can- not be relied on alone to supply all ten amino acids which the body | must have. The moderately-active' man needs about 70 grams of protein a day, | while a woman requires about 60 grams. During pregnancy, about 80 [ grams are necessary. These amounts are supplied approximately by one average serving of meat, one egg, and three glassfuls of milk. Grow- ing adolescents in their teens need between 80 and 100 grams of pro- | tein daily. How then is a person to get the required amount of pro- tein? Pint a Day It is a good idea to start with milk. The adult should take about a pint a day, and children and adolescents about a quart. Then, in} addition, there should be one serv- ing of about three ounces of meat and one serving of a whole-grain cereal, beans, or peas. Severe protein deficiency does not develop very often except during certain diseases in which large amounts of protein may be lost from the body, such as in some kidney disorders. But unless we take care to eat enough of the right foods, a milder deficiency which will yet be enough to sap strength and = destroy efficiency, may creep up on us unawares. It is possible to determine, by chemical test, the amount of pro- | tein circulating in the body. When | such protein deficiency is found to be present, it should be corrected | immediately, not only by an in- crease in the protein in the diet, but by blood transfusion, if neces- sary, or the use of what are known as protein hydrolysates. The latter | are mixtures of the amino acids which make up the various pro- teins, There are also protein mix- tures containing milk proteins liver, which are quite useful in treatment of protein deficiency. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS C. R, 8. Does a brown, coated tongue mean anything? 'A. A coated tongue sometimes many cases no cause for it can be discovered. If one is in good phy- sical condition and feels perfect- ! ly well, no attention should he paid w the fact that the tongue is coat- ed. MULTIPLE MISTAKES No one can afford to make a thousand mistakes of the same sort and government nutritionists, in pointing out that Canadians average about 1,000 meals per year, enlarge upon the danger of multiple mis- takes. We can afford to err once in a while but we will suffer if we per- sist in ignoring the cardinal rules of nutrition. According to the ex- perts, the only sure guarantee of optimum health from food is to plan meals around a wide variety, including milk, fruits, vegetables, meats and whole grain cereals, and fo use these in as fresh and natural a state as possible. A rut is a grave with the ends | kicked out--From An Explorer of Changing Horizons, by P. W. Wil- son, GLAMORIZING \ / Helpful Tips on Skin Care By HELEN FOLLETT When applying creams, always use upward and outward 'strokes. LJ COMPLEXIONS vary to a re- markable degree. Some are fine and delicate, like a sheer fabric. They must be treated tenderly, coddled and petted if they are to retain &he exquisite transparent quality. They call for creams of thin consistency and light massage. Some are of firmer substance, carry a dull surface, -require the lightest film of powder. Scme seem immune to the elements, are not affected by strohg winds or sun- light, while others flare up and protest. But no matter what the condition may be, the facial coat- ing must be protected against the ravages of time. Cleanliness Important For every type of complexion there are, toilet table aids. Three needs are ever presnt, scrupulous cleanliness, lubraction and friction. Unless the skin has a peeve against { soap, use it once a day, preferably at bed time. Do a thorough job, fluffing up a rich lather. Lave away with warm water .If coarse pores are present or the tissues are relaxed, finish with a cold rinsing. The change from hot to cold water brings a quick reaction of the blood streams to promote good coloring. When buying cosmetics, read the labels. Often, at cosmetic counters you will meet young women who will give you valuable information concerning the right selections.

For two years, the cartoon fiz- ard has been gathering material on the northern territory. Last summer he made a thorough tour of Alasfa, even into the Arctic circle; and he has posted a man to gather material there the year around. "Few people realize the im- mense possibilities of laska," Walt said. "It will be an easier land to settle than was the Ameri- can west, because there are no In- dians." Walt said he plans to usé the material as "factual entertain- ment," similar to the subjécts he has made on South America. "I plan to show what is there, plus the fable and legend of the land," he explained. The film will com- bine live action and cartoon. As yet, he doesn't know whether the films will take the shape of fea- tures or of short subjects.

There is strong evidence, they say, that tooth decay is most common among heavy consumers of refined sugar products, such as candies, jams, jellies, cake, etc., and sweet soft drinks. The dental experts sug- gest the "protective" foods,--meat, eggs, etc, for healthy teeth. And they reccmmend thorough chew- ing, so as to exercise tlie muscles of the jaw and massage the gumsy WISDOM Taste is the feminine of genius.-- Fitzgerald, Quoted in Time Re- membered, by Frances Horner. WHAT SHOULD, I DO ABOUT Good Taste in Widow's Wedding? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I am a widow in my forties, and soon I am to be married to a wid- ower, two years older. (1) I would like to have a reception in a hotel, a supper followed by dancing. Would this be correct? (2) Would it be correct to have a wedding cake? (3) Would it be the correct plan for the bridegroom and me to receive the guests? (4) What form of invitation would you sug- gest? (5) Who proposes the toast t othe bride and who to the bride- groom? ® Kay. (1) The circumstances of the wedding . . . for example how Jong you have been a widow and how long your fiance has been a widow- er, as well as other circumstances . . . should direct your taste about the type and size of the reception following the ceremony. Of course there may properly be a reception, but for a widow, it is usually a simple, informal occasion, with a restricted number of guests. (2) Yes. (3) Yes; you, the bride standing at the right of your bridegroom. (4) I suggest you invite the guests either by word of mouth or by cordial little notes of invitation. (5) The first, and most important, toast, is the one customarily made by the best man, "To the bride and bridegroom, and to their happiness always." After this toast, the bridegroom rises and expresses the thanks of his bride and 'himself. Then anyone who wishes may rise and propose a toast. Plans for a Thirtieth Wedding Anniversary Celebration Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My parents are to celebrate their Thirtiegh Wedding = Anniversary soon, and we would like to sur- prise them with a celebration, to be held in: my home. Besides the family (six) I am planning to in- vite twelve or fourteen of their friends. (1) Will you please tell me what is the symbol of the thirtieth wedding anniversary? And how could we use this? (2) What kind of entertainment should we plan.to have? (3) How and hy whom should the gifts be present- ed? Would it be appropriate for two of their grandchildren (the oldest grand-child is my 38-year-old son) to be dressed as the couple were dressed on their wedding day, and have them present the gifts? Or would a simpler way be in best taste? Blue Eyes. (1) Pear] is the traditional sym: bol of the Thirtieth Wedding an- niversary . . . and some lists in- clude ivory as well as pearl. But today not too much attention is paid to the' anniversary "labels," particularly when it is a symbol not eagy to plan in gifts and, most particularly, in gifts appropriate for, both husband and wife. The sts . generally give an article which they. think those being feted will appreciate, something dJecora- tive for their home, or something of convenience pr deep comfort. As a symbol of the anniversary, you might use a pearl-gray cloth on the. tahle (you may be able to bor- row a damask one, or make one of linen or cotton or radiant, pearl. gray rayon). (2) Usually 'there is no especially planned entertain- ment, for a wedding anniversary is an ion for reunions, talking of "old days and new," the serving of special refreshments (if not a dinner or luncheon) the festive cutting of the anniversary cake (this should be a gala feature of the anniversary celebration) and the serving, of it to the guests, toasts to "the bride and bride- room," and other festive features. ut if you wish to plan fos bridge or any other game your parents and friends like, there's no reasop not.to. Sometimes nowadays there is a "sing," of old songs and new songs, the guests provided with small books of the. songs or at least the lyrics. "Here comes the bride" might be sung as your mother, the "bride," comes forward to cut the first slice of the bridal cake, which she shares with her "bridegroom." (3) I think it would be best taste for each guest to hand to your mother and father his or her own gift. Unusual feat- ures, such as you suggest are de- finitely not welcomed by the couple being honored by the party . . . dressed - up children shouldn't "steal the show." What Price Grabbing a Seat! By Mrs. Beeckman I wonder . . . is getting a seat really worth the disagreeable shov- ing, pushing, slamming, and the losing, of all sense of personal plea- santness and dignity and decency ? And I wonder... is getting a seat really worth it to a man who grabs a seat when a woman is standing by? Or is it worth determindedly keeping your seat whether you are man or woman or teen-ager, when you see standing wearily near you an old person or an incapacitated person or a woman (or man) carrying a baby? I might be con- vinced that getting or keeping a seat under any of these conditions is a great and wonderful personal victory . . . IF 'the "victor" didn't always look so nastily and seif- consciously grim! (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to answer questions submitted by readers). 4 Obstinacy and heat in arguments are surest proofs of folly. --Montaigne. A Foxa 7 SIMCOE ST.
