TUESDAY, MAY 11, 1948 / THE DAILY TIMES-CAZETTE PACS SEVEN | BEAUTY FOR YOU Do Hats Go to Your Head? By HELEN JAMESON Time was when millinery was more or less standardized. Re- member the era of the cloche? No, you're too young. But mama does- A mere skull cap without a do.dad on it. What now, my little chick- adees? No hat looks like any other hat. They've gone all-out for trim- mings. Milliners have to make a living, don't they? Considering the prices of some cute little numbers, they are doing right well by them- selves. Some women are hat crazy, and it is easy to understand their mad. ness. They may stint on clothes, hunt bargains until they are ready to drop in their tracks, have fights with the butchers (calling them hold-up men), yet, when it comes to getting helmets to cover their ambrosial locks, they empty the pocketbook and drain the check- book ' govern the game, They know that no woman with a tall, long face should wear a tall, long lid. The sweetie-pie with a face as round as a cream puff should not wear a round little bun of a chapeau. Of course, this season's offerings are of such diverse architecture it is difficult to classify them. Some of them look as if they had been run over by a truck but, when plac- ed over the noble brow, they have chic. It's wunnerful! Remember the song from Pina- fore-- 'Ribbons and laces to set off the faces of pretty young sweet- hearts and wives?" Of ribbons and laces we have plenty, also gay flow- ers, bits of feathers, pretty orna- ments. There are hats for all ages --the bobby-soxer, the mama, the grannie. One is thrown into a state of confusion. Believe teacher, one must go slowly, and ponder deeply, for a hat can make or break the pleasing composition that is Wom. an. Unless the hat you are trying on is flattering; unless it excites you, brings out the color of your eyes and fits neatly with your coiffure, don't be tempted. Continue on your shopping pilgrimage until you find the right one. dry. These girls know the rules that |. Time was when millinery was more "or less standardized. * bp To purchase a hat and then dis- like it is a minor sartorial tragedy. Maybe you wear it because you think you should, having spent good folding money to get it. You'll never feel at ease in it. In the course of time it will join that dis- mal array at the rummage sale, poor thing. Some other woman might have loved it. If you are the conservative type and have fixed ideas, do change. Hats of severe lines are no help even to the most dignified dame. Seek softness of material. Don't be afraid of pay colors; 'they do something to a woman's soul. It is a mistake to let a sales- woman persuade you into making a selection. She is just following the dictates of her own preferences. They may not suit you at all, Take your time, lady, take your time. Picturesque Ceremony For Thelma Farrow In the Ukrainian Presbyterian Church with the Rev. John Jacen- ty officiating, the matriage was solemnized on Saturday of Thelma June, daughter of Mrs. Gordon Far- rell and the late Mr. Farrell, and Michael Yourkevich, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Yourkevich, all of Osh- awa, Ferns, snapdragons and stocks formed the floral setting for the ceremony while Mr. Orest Salmers played the wedding music and Mr. Steve Salmers sang "I Love You Truly", during the signing of the register. : Mr. Kenneth Farrell gave his sis- ter in marriage. The bride was gowned in white satin brocaded bengaline styled with an off-the- shoulder effect, inset with nylon net, and a wide scalloped collar. The fitted bodice buttoned down the back and the long sleeves ended in points over the hands. The skirt fell in draped folds from the waist to the knees and two side drapes from the waist ended in a long train. She wore a headdress of seed pearls to which was caught her full-length veil of embroidered tulle illusion, Her jewellery was a three strand pearl necklace, the gift of the bridegroom, and a gold bracelet which was formerly her mother's and which was sent to her by her grandparents, Mr, and Mrs, James Bell, Glasgow, Scotland. &he car- ried a cascade bouquet of red roses and white gypsophila. * Miss Kay Iwasnick was maid of honor in a gown of American Beau- ty rose moire taffeta styled with an off-the-shoulder effect, tight fitting bodice and side bustles to hold out the full skirt, She wore a matching sheer coronet and finger- less lace gloves. Similarly gowned in apple green moire taffeta were the two bridesmaids, the Misses Dorothy Weeks and Olga Tureski. The girls all wore pearl necklaces. Miss Grace Farrell, sister of the bride, was the junior bridesmaid in a gown of maize nylon. The little Misses Patricia Hraynick and Eu- genia Yourkevich were flower girls and wore maize nylon dresses, also, and carried old-fashioned nosegays of sweet peas. They wore the bride's gifts of gold lockets. The maid of fionor carried a cascade bouquet of NT: LL by up. pale green carnations and white | snapdragons, while the three brides- | maids carried cascades of deep rose | carnations and' white snapdragons. | Mr. Michael Tureski was the best man. The ushers were Mr. Jack Tyson and Mr. Michael Worchelaz of Hamilton. At. the Ukrainian National Hall where the reception was held, the guests were received by the bride's mother in a street-length dress of black and white silk, with black and blue accessories, and a corsage of red roses. Mrs. Yourkevich, the bridegrcom's mother, chose a dress of street-length black and white silk jersey. Her accessories were black and her corsage was of pink roses. Later the bride placed her bridal bouquet on her father's grave. The destination of the wedding trip was London, Ontario, and De- troit, Michigan, For travelling, the bride changed to a black wool ga- bardine tailored suit with Kelly green and white accessories, Yellow rosés formed the going-away cor- sage. On their return, the newly wed couple will reside in Oshawa. HOUSEHOLD HINTS One-inch ribbon in a matching color makes an ideal facing for hems that are let down. Satin ribbon is best for light fabrics and corded for woollens. Small holes made when unravelling hemlines can best be repaired with mending rubber and matching fabric. After dyeing odd stockings, one can match the plain. seamed to pencil-seamed by stitch. ing over the plain seam with brown thread. It takes about 10 minutes per stocking," Flowers for Tea Morning glories for your after- noon tea apron! Simplest embroi- dery on such a fabric-saver!

BUNDESEN, M.D. PLANTAR WARTS TREATMENT Suppose you were left a fortune on condition you went about forever after with a pebble in your shoe. It seems a small price for a prince- ly inheritance but a novelist once dealt with this situation and decid- ed correctly that the fortune would be discarded about the third day to get rid of the pebble. However that may be, there are some unfortunates who, in effect, have all the discomfort of the peb- ble without the consolation of fin- ancial reward. They are those who suffer from plantar warts. Now warts may occur on any part of the body, but they are most disabling and painful when they develop on the sole of the foot. Exact Cause Unknown Their exact cause is not known but it has been suggested that they. may be due to an infection with a virus. Most warts are easy to deal with, but plantar warts are another story. They are very stubborn and difficnlt to eliminate. Tip: usual treatment consists of the use of X-ray. However, such treatments are not always avail. able, and sometimes they do not destroy the growth. A new treatment has been pre- sented which is simple, does not disable the patient, and cures a high percentage. It causes no com- plications, Ring Pad A ring pad is put around the wart so that when the patient puts his weight on his foot, the wart pro- trudes through the hole in the pad. Then phenol or carbolic acid fs applied to the wart in the proper dilution and immediately followed with nitric acid. The substances are applied carefully, in small amounts, and only by the doctor to make sure that just the wart itself is touched by them and that the surrounding normal skit is not damaged. Before those substances are ap- plied, the wart is pared down with a sharp knife or razor blade. If blisters or other signs of ringworm are present in the area of the wart, the treatment must be-delayed un. til this condition has been cleared No Discomfort In the treatment with phenol and nitric acid, the patient expe- riences no discomfort. An oint. ment, made up of solicylic acid and placed over the wart in the ring, softens the wart so that it is trim- med more easily at the time of the next treatment. The entire pad is then covered and fastened to the foot with strips of adhesive tape. The patient is permitted to bathe and is instructed to continue with his usugl activities. Vigorous ath- letics, however, are prohibited. The dressing should not be disturbed. In four or five days, the dressing is removed, and the wart with the surrounding callus is pared down as this as possible. The procedure is then repeated as before. From two to 12 treatments will be required to eradicate the wart, the average being six. After the treatment is completed, the patient should be examined monthly to make sure that the wart has not recurred . QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS R. A.: Will you please tell me something about hysteria? Answer: Hysteria is a disorder in which the individual is easily in. fluenced by suggestion, and in which certain body states are pro- duced by this suggestion.

It costs a heap of money for Uncle Sam's girls to powder their noses. They don't want their faces to shine like a good deed in a naugh- ty world. Complexion glimmer puts them out of beauty form. It is something that even the bravest woman cannot endure. Despite the violent interest in the rouge pad and the lipstick, powder is the basic element of complexion decorating. The study of the various colors of these fragrant cosmetic calcimines is interesting and fasci- nating. Chemists have produced tints to match every skin, that of the blonde, the brunette, the red head, the betwist-and-betweens. All blondes are not the same type. The Nordic goldie-head needs a creamy powder, the Anglo blonde with ash hair, brown eyes and gar- denia skin can use rachelle with satisfactory results. The Celtic blonde, who has brown eyes, will choose a dark rachelle, She will fin- ish her facial tinting with a coral L Choosing the Right Powder FOLLETT Movie Star Evelyn Keyes is careful to choose just the right shade of powder for her complexion, L 3 rouge, cardinal lipstick, brown eye shadow. Old Standby Rachelle is the good old standby for blondes and brunettes; it comes in varying tints and one must find the right one. The average brunette with brown hair and brown, eyes. needs a tone somewhat stronger, so she will select ochre that blends beautifully with rouge of medium red and lipstick of a rich wine color. The exotic beauty who is" ever ready to put out the eye of the other woman can find a powder that is flecked with gold. It is won- derful for the Titian haired lovely, adds a charming touch of the un- usual. Green powder sounds terrible, but really isn't; it is of a most delicate shade. If the fair haired darling uses it when she wears a black for- mal it will pnake her skin even more transparently clear. For the white haired lady with delicate complexion mauve powder is a happy thought. A touch of mauve eye shadows; lips tinted with dull, rich red and the effect is stun- ning. 'Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Do you think it's a good idea to recall yourself to someone to whom you are befng introduced for the second time . . . for example, to tell the person, who apparently doesn't remember you, that you were introduced to him or her at such-and-such a place at such- and-such a time? = I think you shoudd mention this previous meet- ing . . . but my brother thinks this is usually unnecessary, that you should, as he says, "just skip it." "Sis" | I agree with your brother that | under most circumstances, it's bet- ter just to accept the second in- troduction, particularly when, as you say ,bthe person "apparently doesn't remember" a previous meet- ing. There's npt much grace or point in insistag, to the obvious embarrassment of the other per- son. "You don't remember me, do you? I met you ast summer when you were visiting Bill Harrison in Hampton." However, there are some Occa- sions When there is a real reason for mentioning the previous meet- ing, and, if so, this can be done gracefully and . straightforwardly. "I'm Frances Graham, and we met last summer when you were visit. ing Bill Harrison in Hampton. I want very much to write a message to Bill, and I hear he has moved to California. Do you know his address?"

SALADA TEA CP Don't Change House Exterior If It's Like the Rest in the Row If yours is one of the countlessbright, umsual colors. families that have bought "stock houses" in a development project, you probably have been wondering how you can make it stand out from the crowd. "Well -- don't," says Gabriel Scognamillo. A movie company art director, Mr. Scognamillo bought a "cracker- box" stock home in a Los Angeles GI development. After looking at what other homeowners in the de- velopment had done, he decided that some were successful, and others awful. Most attempts at individuality should be made on the inside, Mr. Scognamillo advises. When he bought his home, the walls inside were all white. He repainted, using chocolate brown in the living-room, | pale blue in the nursery, elephant gray in the master bedroom, jungle green in the study and red-and- white wallpaper in the halls, These different colors help give each room individuality and eliminate any feeling of monotony about the house.
