Television Changes Cosmetic Fashions New York--(CP)--Television may revolutionize the cosmetics industry and change the color of your make- up. Frhat is what such experts as Eli- zabeth Arden say. In television the old-type make-up is not satisfactory; make-up is in light brown tones, starting with an almost tan foundation base, brown eye-pencils and eye-shadow and an orange-red lipstick, Canadian-born Mics Arden predicts! this orange- red is the shade to watch for in lipsticks for fall, Television lights bring out a girl's freckles or a man's beard, unless the skin is covered with a smooth foun- dation. The usually = photogenic Clare Booth Luce was a striking ex- ample of this when she was on tele- vision at the Republican Convention in Philadelphia. Her friends--and Mrs. Luce--were horrified at the re- sult, Rouge is definitely out. However for television a deeper shade of brown is used to accentuate cheek highlights and emphasize the lines of a face. To cope with the bearded look on men's faces a simple pancake foun- dation is used, to which is added a second lighter, almost white pan- cake. The men may look as if they'd fallen into the flour box under or- dinary light but before the televi- sion cameras, it's just right. There's no hard-and-fast rule for good television make-up. . Studio lights and the subject's own coloring determine the shades to use and how tc use them, But an elaborate job is not necessary, the experts agree, and you can leave the camera, and no one will stare at you any more than usual, Chinese Regard Canadians Highly Winnipeg--(CP)--1It is a cause for pride if one is a Canadian in China. Canadian doctors, nurses and mis- sionaries are highly respected by the Chinese people -- and they have high regard for everyone from the Dominion, says a former Winnipeg- ger. She is Miss Vivian Stack, former UNR.R.A. worker who is on leave from Shanghai and is spending a few weeks in Winnipeg with her parents. Miss Stack now is employed by the Board of Trustees of Rehabilita- tion Affairs--known as BOTRA-- which is carrying on UNRRA pro- jects in China. ---- MENU TRICK A good trick for summer-meal planing js to cook enough macaroni for two meals.

JEAN MAGILL whose marriage to Mr. John Mec- Nab is to take place in Simcoe Street United Church on Saturday, September 18.

Blandford, 22-year-old heir of the Duke of Marlborough, .is a relative of Winston Churchill. He and his sister, Lady Rosemary Spencer- Churchill, are guests of the. King and Queen at Balmoral Castle; Scotland. The despatch says that if the marriage were arranged, it seemed hardly likely than an official an- nouncement would be made imme- diately because "the King and Queen would prefer to await their return from the visit they will make to New Zealand and Austra- lia with the Princess early next year. "The engagement may be an- nounced toward the middle of July, 1949, the date of the return from Australia and the marriage would then take place in the autumn'-- two years after the marriage in 1947 of Margaret's sister, Princess Elimbeth, to the Duke of Edin- burgh. The despatch says that the Mas- quess had been especially invited to Balmoral for Mdrgaret's birth- day party and "this event naturally gave further encouragement to the rumor that the marriage is virtu- ally certain." Self-Centred Girls Seldom Win Friends Every once in a while a young girl shows by her behavior that he is almost completely self-centr- Whether she knows it or not, she is put down as "selfish" by her gang, which is a personality stigma. If a selfish girl is ex- tremely pretty, or talented. or well- to-do, her selfishness may be tol- erated by her pals. But the chances are, unless she rids herself of this trait, that she will never win any real friends. The time for a girl to curb any tendency toward selfishness is when she is young. Here are some typical traits which should be scotched. One is a lack of thought- fulness of people. Another is an unwillingness to make generous overtures to othres. A refusal. to 80 out of one's way to help people, of course, is another glaring indi- cation of selfishness. Even if unselfish behavior must be worked at, the effort should be made. What is certain to happen, even if the effort is forced, is that the emotional satisfaction which comes from being genercus to other people will be so rewarding. To Special Luncheon at Ex. Invited to attend a special lun- cheon at the Canadian National Exhibition on Warriors' Day, Aug- ust 28, are two outstanding stu- dents from the Oshawa Collegiate. They are Miss Sonia Jacobson and Richard Donevan. On Warrior's Day, Canada's greatest instruments for keeping the peace", as Kate Aitken, women's director of the C.N.E. describes them, will be honored guests of the Women's Division. They are 600 young Canadians considered. by | their educators to be outstanding among the thousands attending high schools and collegiates within a 500 mile radius of Toronto. Selection of the 600 was done on the basis of their scholastic standing. leadership qualities and the ability to get on with others. "It is to these young people we must look to keep the: peace of the future, so what more appropriate guests could be invited to our Warriors' Day luncheon", the women's director said. This luncheon to honor out- standing ygung Canadians will. be addressed by two of their own number. Fourteen-year-old Lorine Welch of Aneaster, Ontario, will discuss, "What Youth has to Give Canada". Richard Stackhouse, 18- year-old Belleville youth will reply with "What Canada has to Give Us", Both 'these young people are financing their studies with money earned from profitable hobbies -- Miss Welch by growing and selling flowers and Stackhouse by playing the saxaphone in a dance band. Names of the 600 to whom invi- tations have been sent were sub- mitted to the C.N.E"s women's director by high school and col- legiate principals except in rural areas where selection was made by teachers in the public schools. Telephone Etiquette Writing in This Week Magazine, Emily Post had this to say, recent- ly: "Pew of us imagine that our telephone manners are bad, but from the complaints that I receive daily, it is obvious that most of us have faults of one sort or another. To test yourself, see if you can an- swer 'Yes' to all of the following questions: Do you make sure of the correct number, instead of disturb- ing strangers by 'calling from mem- ory?' "Do you, on a party line, space your calls so that others may have a chance to use their telephones? "When calling friends who may not recognize your voice, do you identify yourself at once and avoid putting them in the embarrassing position of not knowing to whom they are talking? "Do you give a thought to the situation of each person you call? For example: (a) Do you make business calls well within office fiours? (b»Do call busy house- keepers after als \rather than be- fore them? (c¢) Do ypu avoid cails to mothers at their children's meal or bath times? "If you want to have a conversa- tion of any length, do you ask whe- ther the other person is free to listen or whether to call back at another time? "When your call is not answered quickly, do you wait long enough for the person you are calling to get' to the telephone, so that she will not have been disturbed just to answer a 'dead' line?" Urges Housewives Take. Up Art Hobby Montreal--(CP) -- Stella Holden Ireland of suburban, Westmount is urging young housewives to take up a hobby or two in some particular form of art in which they have tal- ent, Although Mrs. Ireland has two children--Audrey, 10, and Peter, six--she finds time to practise sculpturing under the tutelage of Albert Zucca, well-known Montreal sculptor, Before coming to Canada she 'won two art scholarships in her native England. . Audrey and Peter have found their hobbies already, Audrey has worked as a child model and taken part in plays; Peter, who discovered an aptitude for music, has been taking piano lessons for four months, O.G.H. Student Nurses Hostesses At Evening Garden Party and Fair Varicolored lights twinkled above gaily decorated booths last even- ing on the spacious lawn of the nurses' residence of the Oshawa General Hospital. This was the set- ting of the Garden Party and Tea sponsored by the student nurses of the hospital. While cries of "Play Bingo", min- gled with that of "Try your luck at the fish pond", Dr. W. K. Blair and Dre B. A. Brown were trying to guess weights. Prizes were giv- en to those whose weight was guessed incorrectly--and there seemed to be a great many people coming away with prizes. The lady customers were complaining that the scales were several pounds over--but it was all in fun and no one minded. Three pretty girls, a blonde, a brunette and a redhead, literally bared their legs to entice the cus- tomers--mostly male--to encircle their ankles with a hoop from a distance. Flowers and home cook- ing vied with the refreshment booth in popularity, while the Penny Throw proved to be a quaint ate traction. When 'you became weary of walking around a refreshing cup of tea was served in the residence. The prizes for the various booths were donated by many of the local merchants and the flowers and home cooking were gifts of the friends and families of the host- esses, who seemed to be having even more fun than the customers. This is the first project of its kind undertaken by student nurses since 1941, when unlike last even- ing, it threatened rain all after- noon and evening, However, last night proved to be perfect weather for an out-of-doors' party. 'The proceeds are to be used by the girls to send parcels overseas, one of which is sent each month. Some of the money will also be used to pay for a badmington outfit which they have purchased and one or two other small items for comfort and relaxation, The following are the various booths and their conveners and helpers. Refreshments -- Miss Enid Blackburn, assisted by Miss Eileen Carson and Miss Beth Fin- nett; Weight guess--Dr. W. K. Blair, Dr. B. A.
