She would look her pret- . He will, no doubt, show it to fis pals, as boys do. She does a lot of tall thinking. She must be a credit to his taste. Let us hope that she doesn't rush to the beautytorium for a new hair- do, and then chase to the Phot. apher's studio. She must-stick hs hair arrangement with which he is familiar, Twenty-four hours should elapse after the shampoo and wave set so the silky strands will relax, not have a lacquered look. Another must; she must go to bed early the night before, have long hours of sleep. An early morn- ing appointment is best. She will look fresher then than later in the day. She should not make the mistake of wearing a hat. Pretty hair, beautifully arranged, appeals to the masculine eye, while hats have no meaning. A new dress, worn for the first time, may make the sub- ect of a photograph dress-conscious. The best feller has seen her at her most casual loveliest, so a frock of simple lines is the happy choice. It is important that the neckline should be becoming. A plain fabric is to be preferred to a patterned material that may take the attention from the face. It is best not to wear jewelry or ornaments unless they be simple ones; they break up the composi- tion, make a girl look too dressed up. There is the important matter of make-up which, for the purpose of the best possible photographic re- sults, must be just so, handled with care. Some photographer prefer to apply the complexion tints, or have attendants who do that little job. Some object to the application of powder. It seems that when the cosmetic calcimine is on the light yay will be absorbed by it and the clear modeling of the features may Photograph JAMESON She must stick to the hair ar- rangement with which he is fami- liar. > * 9 be dimmed.

BUNDESEN, M.D. LARYNX INFLAMMATION IF the people of the United States were ever subjected to the atomic bomb explosions so freely pre- dicted by the prophets of the next waz, would the survivors be more or less fortunate .an those killed in the actual blasts? In other words, would the intense radiation given off by such explosions cause strange and lingering illnesses more horrible than death itself. These are questions in which all of us are highly interested now- adays. For medical men, in whose hands would lie the protection of whole populations in the event of war, the correct answers are of su- preme importance. For this reason, plans have been set up to study the long-term effects of atom pomb rays on the Japanese .urvivors of the first such blasts in world history. Since a large number of deadly rays are liberated by atomic bomb explosion, there was much specula- tion at the time of the Nagasaki bombing as to whether or not the area would ever again be safe to live in. Since, however, the bombs burst in the air, only very small amounts of the products formed by the explosion remained on the site of the explosion and later investiga- tion indicates that the bombed ter- ritory is today safe for living and cukivation. - Thus far, studies have also allay- ed fears that atomic bomb radia- tions would stimulate widespread development of cancer among peo- ple exposed to them. To date, at any rate, there has been no increase of this disease among the people of Nagasaki. Scars due to burns, however, are frequently seen, There are also scars due to blast injuries from the force of the explosion, Most of the minor burns healed in the usual way. The more severe burns seemed to heal more slowly, but it has been thought that possibly this was the result of lack of good care. There is an overgrowth of scar tissue known as keloid formation. Such keloids do not seem to develop more frequently in the healing of wounds produced by an atomic bemb explosion than they do in or- dinary wounds. Some of the rays, of a kind pro- duced by the explosion, seem to be responsible for the development of tumors in both animals and human beings. These rays, given in small doses for a short period of time, may be responsible for the develop- ment of leukemia or tumors of the ovaries in animals Leukemia is a condition in which there is a great increase in the number of white cells in the blood. The exposure to the rays in the bombed areas was instantaneous, and no significant amount of radio- activity remained following the ex- plosion. ; Many of the survivors had dis- turbances of the blood-forming tis- sues. However, two years later, this condition had cleared up in most of them. Leukemia did not occur any more frequently in these persons than is expected in any population. Of course, continued studies are being carried out to détermine other possible effects of atomic bomb ex- plosions, and efforts are also being made to find methods of preventing and overcrowding such disturbances as may occur as a result of the ra- dioactive waves produced. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS A Reader: Is it ever necessary to catheterize a baby when the infant is sick? What is a catheter? Answer; Under certain conditions, it may be necessary to remove the urine from the bladder by placing a catheter into the bladder. Ways of Softening Caked Brown Sugar Caked brown sugar may be soft- ened in either of two ways. (1) Put sugar in tight container. A large glass jar is best, with screw top or tight-fitting lid. Leave room above sugar to include a slice of apple on a bit of waxed paper £o apple does not touch the sugar. After a few days the sugar will have absorbed enough moisture from the apple to be soft again. (2) Put the jar (left open) in the bread box along with a cut loaf of bread for a few days. When the sugar has softened sufficiently cover the jar tightly and store on the cup- board shelf. To prevent brown sugar from hardening, put into a glass jar as soon as package is opened and keep jar tightly closed. Air soon dries out the sugar if it Is left in a paper package. I | cLAMORIZING By HELLN A bath oil that softens and perfumes . * Get a look at an array of bath accessories and money jumps right out of your purse; there is no hold- ing it back. A woman may know how to cut down on the grocery bill, she may be an expert bargain stalker, she may be able to make a frock out of something she finds in the attic, but when it comes ta. cos- metic and bath luxuries she is just a softie, and who would chide her? Especially this season of the'year when a luxurious bath renews her spirits after a hot day. She pours a rich bath oil into the water, washes herself with fra- grant and softentd water. A ten- minute soaking, and snarling nerves quiet down, muscles relax, she knows peace of mind. It is a won- derful pick-up. It is a safe bet that, although the old Roman bath fans made a great ceremony of this hy- gienic rite, they had nothing on us for emerging wonderfully clean, thoroughly scoured. Scented Bath Accessories * FOLLETT the water, is a good sumer pick-up. * After the cold shower, have a brisk rub-down with a coarse towel that takes hold like the pangs of a guilty conscience. Then friction with a bath tonic. It will keep the | skin smooth and toned, it will dis- courage goosie flesh. Those little red points are no beauty bargains. Rub a foot powder into the soles of your feet. It will keep the little footies from getting hot and both- ered. It absorbs moisture; it is the deposits of the exudations sent out by the sweat glands that irritate the flesh, send the feet into a fever, Before having your bath, wash your face and cream it well. Re- move the cream and use a skin tonic to give added freshness. After that you can play with the make up box to your heart's delight. You'll look as fresh as a' daisy. You'll be ready for anything that is on the social calendar, Mutton-Chop Beards Surprise Londoners (From the Overseas Mail) Ont of a salmon pink railway coach on to a platform at Waterloo Station stepped a spruce old gentle- man with mutton-chop whiskers, carrying a Gladstone bag, and ac- companied by a lady arrayed in the "New Look" of somewhere around nineteen-hundred. They stepped into a waiting motor-car, which dated from about the time of the lady's costume, and drove off to the cheers of astonished crowds. It was all an act, of course--a part of the celebrations of the hundredth birthday of Waterloo Station. I don't know why it is, but we in London have a special senti- mental feeling about Waterloo. Perhaps it's the name, which seems to awaken overtones of memory, but none of the other great London railway termini seem to have the same associations. Waterloo . . . . in most of us fit stirs bitter-sweet memories of war- time farewells. Old Contemptibles For those in the mid-years that great echoing vault of a place,- not at all pretty to look at, is sacred with memories of the 1914-18 war ....the Old Contemptibles setting out from it. . . . the Red Cross trains coming. . . . crossing old Waterloo Bridge on the way back from leave --but the last link, that old bridge seemed, with war-dark London and Blighty. And we remember it in the last war, too, dim and grim, with the bombs crashing around it. Yes, it's one of the sacred places of England, is Waterloo--sacred with the joy and pain of reunions and partings, and I was glad they made a bit of a fuss of the old place and put out the flage when its centenary came round. Much The Same But, of course, the station that stands now isn't' the 'Waterloo which opened in 1848 with the proud claim that it had four plat- forms, "in order," as the chairman said at the opening ceremony, "that we may have no trouble or incon- | Simcoe & Athol Sts.

He already has Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood-- (CP) = Cecil B. De- Mille, long a pacemaker in the mo- vie incustry, will upset the present economy trend with his next pic- ture. It will be a costly epic. In these days when most produc- ers are cutting costs to the bone, DeMille plans to make "Samson and Delilah" in his usual lavish style.

Nice people, though. I'd like to see Bette Davis and Greer Garson break their slumps and bounce back in smaseh pict- ures. They add a lot of class to the screen.

But in one remarkable way Wat- erloo is much the same now as it was when it was first built, and that is in the way things look round about it. When the first train puff- ed out of Waterloo it passed through the gardens of Lambeth; and now flowers bloom again a- round Waterloo--wild flowers that crowd the ruined places where the bombs fell. F. T. WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT Acknowledging Introduction? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My sister overheard me yester- day saying "I'm pleased to meet you" when I was introduced to a boy on the beach. She says it is never correct to say this when I acknowledge an introduction. Is she right about this? Cynthia Yes . . . absolutely right! And, although you may not think so at this time, your sister has done you a great service to call your atten- tion to this "social error." Also you are a very wise girl to have decided to find out about this. As a matter of fact, if you acknowledge an in- troduction by saying "I'm pleased to meet ycu" (or "Pleased to meet you") you ,will immediately show the other person-of-the-introduct- that you just don't know what's what. And you'll admit, I'm sure, that this is an unnecessarily un- fortunate way to begin an acquain- tanceship. So please, dear girl, make a good first impression by saying, in a gracious, cordial manner, "How do you do, Mr. Allen." What a simple rule it is . . . all you ever need to remember is that "How-do-you-do" is the always- correct form to acknowledge an in- troduction, any introduction. (And incidentally, there is ano- ther error in your question. You say, "when I was introduced to a boy." It is always the boy who is introduced to a girl) Shall They Serve Cocktails Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My husband and I were married last year, have just moved into our new house, and are planning to give some informal little dinners, invit- ing either one or two other couples. We do not drink alcoholic drinks, but we are not narrow-minded about others drinking if they wish to. Before the dinners we are go- ing to give, do you think we should serve cocktails to the guests we know would enjoy having them? We don't want to seem prissy, but on the other hand neither do we want to establish a custom we would be expected to follow in our home. GKS. You and your husband do not ever have to serve drinks . .. and if you wish, you may right now dis- miss the whole question of whe- ther-or-not from your hospitality procedure. In other words, just take it for granted that your friends will take it for granted . . . make no mention of it, make no apology. Many hosts and hostesses do this . . . their number is indeed increasing . . . and they carry off the omission-of-cocktails with gra- cious nonchalance. A clever hostess can concoct a pre-dinner non-al- coholic drink that is delicious and intriguing, and she can serve de- lectakle canapes with this. Or if you wish, and if your cons- ciences and purses approve, you may serve cocktails to your guests even though you and your husband don't "indulge." But as you say, this is the time you must decide about the procedure that will be taken for granted by guests in your home. (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to answer questions submitted by rea- ders.)

INSULIN Preserver of life When your doctor orders insulin for a diabetic condition, you may be sure that it is nec- essary . . . that your life depends upon its use as prescribed. Because insulin would lose its effect if taken through the mouth, injections must be made directly into the blood stream by hypodermic needle. Thus the diabetic, taking in- sulin under the doctor's orders must become his own nurse, using the finest made injector, and quality prepared insulin. A good pharmacist, efficient and trustworthy, can be of real service. He will co-operate with the doctor and make certain that your insulin requirements are met promptly.
