© discolorations that will not make THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1948 THE DAILY T IMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Necks Need Attention Dy BELDN VAMBESTIY If you are an outdoor girl, have n flirting with the sun, enjoying manner of summer sports, you would do well to take an eagle's "eye view of your neck, not only the front, but the sides and back. Sun- purn and tan may leave an after- 'math of rough skin surface and your heart rejoice. They may, in- stead, make you mad. There is many a lovely gardenia- bi and-rose face that is upheld by a neck that is as yellow as a daffodil. \ That combination does not make for a becoming color effect. Also, there are young faces combined with old necks. The explanation of that sad state of affairs is found in short-changing the neck when cosmetics are used. Why stop at . one's Adam's apple?. Why not start at the collar bone, sweep up- ward over the throat, anoint the regions below the ears and give the back of the neck a few friendly wallops? Makes, sense, doesn't it? There may be a few tell-tale lines when you let your chin droop. Keep your head on the level and you won't have them. Get into the habit of sending it down or for- ward and, first thing you know, you'll have a horrid little neck- lace lines playing ring-around-a- . YOSy. | Beauticians can do and are do- jing much for downtrodden necks Not just the portion that you see . , in the mirror, but the rear struc- | tare that you never see at all un- Jess you use two mirrors, and how ¥ten do you do that? They lather on a heavy cream, do vig- jorous thumbing, use steaming com- Ipresses if there are freckles or spots of tan left over from the sum- mer season. Of course, the neck suffers in e winter, too. It is frictioned 'with scarves and collars. Dust- laden furs hug it, sometimes cause iblackheads to form. Neck care is {an all-the-year-round job. Too bad 0 add to your beauty duties, but on't think for a minute that rubbing your neck to a state of aming redness is all that it ex- cts of you. * | A little pad of flesh may sneak Ly i? * Dutributed by King Features Symducste, los. Get some member of your fam- ily to give it a good hammering. + + % up just south of the neck. It won't be any help at all when you wear that new formal. If you are in- clined to stow away your calor- ies, instead of exercising, like a good girl, and burning' them up, this little pad may appear to vex you. If it does, get some member of your family to give your neck a good hammering with doubled fists, after which the flesh should be picked up and rolled between fin- ger and thumb. That will settle it. Fat cells will be crushed to nothing= ness. Finish the treatment by frisking an ice cube over the tissues that have taken punishment. Serves 'em right. By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN ar Mrs. Beeckman: What type of birth-announcement the really correct one? Is a "Mr. ttached on which the baby's name s written by hand considered to be n as good taste as engraved an- imouncements? LAs soon as convenient after the jDy's birth, my husband will tele- gtone to our intimate friends"here in town. Should we also send an nnouncement to each one whom e have a4 ady notified with a personal call? 'It has been my im- pression that the birth-announce- ents serve to give news of the vent to those who lived far away nd would not otherwise hear of it. MN. : Bi Mrs." card with the tiny card : There is no prescribed formality * which must be observed in giving . put the news of a baby's birth. As matter of fact, the smartest thing do is to make the birth- \ @nnouncement by telephone, tele- graph, and by notes. Relatives and Intimate friends who live nearby e notified by telephone. To far- way relatives and friends tele- grams may be sent. Or brief, in- ormal notes may tell the news. Dear Aunt Anne, Peter Allen Noble, Jr. arrived pn November first. Everybody well nd flourishing! %o Devotedly, Mary and Peter. (These notes may be written on | plain white cards, on semi-note paper, or on the mother's or the 'Mr. and Mrs." informals.) Formal announcements may be ent, and properly, attached to the dr. and Mrs. card, the small card . =pgraved with the baby's name and jj e of birth. If you choose these pods, the formality should be maintained by having the baby card engraved also. Or, most informally, | $he printed birth-announcements may be sent. Either the formal or Informal cards may be sent to ghose otherwise informed of the irth . . . they may wish to keep em as mementos of this happy ent, or for reference as to birth- date.

CHURCH Friday, Oct. 15, 2.30 p.m. Admission 25¢ do the bride's grandparents sit? (2) And where do the parents of the bride and the parents of the bridegroom stand in the receiving- line? J.B. (1) That depends. The bride's mother and father sit in the first pew on the left of the aisle. If the bride has brothers and sisters, they usually sit in the pew behind the mother and father. If not, her grandparents are seated in this pew. (2) First in the receiving-line is the bride's mother, who is the hostess of the occasion and so stands first to greet the guests. If the bride's father is to be a mem- ber of the receiving-line (he may prefer, as host, to circulate among the guests, making necessary in- troductions, --and --so-forth), he stands next to the bride's mother. Then the bridegroom's parents (or his mother only, if the groom's father prefers not to be in the re- ceiving-line), Next, the groom; at his right, the bride; at her right, her maid of honor; then the brides- maids. Devotedly, Giving Gifts to Four Girls Who Are to Serve Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I am having four of my girl friends take charge of the serving at my wedding reception. Would it be proper for me to give them gifts? "Would it be necessary? -D. 8. No one could tell yo'i that giving these gifts to these kind friends is "necessary" . . . but of course it is proper and of course it is gracious for you to give each girl some re- membrance of thi. occasion. These gifts need nto be expensive or im- portant ones, or at least not im- portant except in the sense that they are chosen most thoughtfully and with a high sense of apprecia- tion for the services these girls are contributing to the happiness of your wedding day. The Families Get to Know Each Other Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My fiance and I are to be married next month. Our parents and fam- ilies do not know each other very well, So that they may get to know | each other better, which family should be the first to extend an invitation to their home? --C. M. The only social must is that the fiance's parents, after he has told them of his engagement, come to call on you to welcome you into their family. After this so-import- ant call, either family may take the first hospitality-gesture. This depends entirely on convenience and inclination . . . therefore most often the first invitation is given by the family more "given to hos- pitality", more inclined toward en- tertaining.

The days when the cut of a waist coat was the symbol of a man's ele- vation in the world of society have gone, certainly, but since the days of the brightly colored garments v lca the beau of the 18th century affected, the British male seems' to have lost much of his delight in coats of many colors, Tartans of course have increased in number enormously compared v .ue days when there were the dozen or so great clans of the Scot- tish Highlands, and before World War IT certain woollen manufactur- ers in Scotland were producing hun- dreds of different clan and fam- ily tartans. The firm of Peter Mecarthur and Co., Glasgow, actually carried in stock about 230 varieties, Today, firms of weavers, like John Lawson and Sons Limited, Kilmar- nock, are already hard.pressed to meet overseas tailors' demands for fine tartans, and report increasing orders brought phy the returning fashion of wearing tartan waist- coats with men's evening dress which has sprung up in the United States. Favorite tartans are the Royal Stewart-Queen Victoria's eight-col- or favorite; the MacLeod, with yel- low background, broad black checks, and a red line; and the Buchanan which is red, blue, yellow, black, and white in marked opposition.

But do the girls pay heed? They do not. That women neglect the care of their feet, even abuse them, is evident by the way ma of the ladies walk. Many locom painfully. The clump along, or they shuffle. With these movements their bodies are thrown out of bal- ance; in time the fine lines of the silhouette -suffer. Sore feet are also responsible for mental depression, When feet hurt, you hurt, all over, These specialists advise you to wear heels of medium height, shoes snug at the heels, fitted long at the toes when shopping, walking or go- ing about household chores. Uppers should be of soft leather, roomy across the forepart, soles of flexible leather to give firm support and the maximum freedom of move- ment. When the feet are bathed, a firm brush should be used. Work up a Sie Vo sn a 0 vw gently to stimulate circulation. Ld * rich lather, scrub gently. You will stimulate circulation, and drive away little red patches that are forerunners .of corns. Also you will get rid of the dry, hard skin at the back of your heels, the penalty for wearing shoes that slip at the back. After the bath friction the flesh with mineral oil, Or, if you wish, apply a soothing foot powder; sprinkle some in your shoes if the footies perspire. In cutting toenails, remember the oft-repeated, but oft-violated rule; cut- them straight across, not rounded at the edges and no short- er than the flesh at the end of the toes. Following this practice you will never have an.ingrowing toe- nail, that may become painful, Don't select shoes In a hurry. It {is best to buy them in the after- noon; believe it or not, your feet may be a bit wider after a day of shopping. Seek comfort and a per- fect fit as well as style. Be kind to your feet and they will be good to you. Orce Crowd Shy, Mrs. Henry Wallace || Now Well-Dressed and Poised | New York -- (CP) -- Quiet, good- looking Mrs, Henry Wallace says she'd rather stay on her South Salem, N. Y., farm than live in the White House. But stie has indicated she doesn't expect the November 2 presidential election to require the move, any- way. "I hope my husband gets a big vote--I think that's important and I think he'll get a larger vote than many people expect," was all she'd say about his victory chances when she held a news conference recently. Ste is poised and confident now at any public gathering, but there was a time when Ilo Browne Wal- lace shied away from them. She didn't dream in 1914, when she married Henry Agar Wallace who was then a reporter on his father's paper "Wallace's Farmer," that she would some day be called upon to speak from the: balcony of the White House, as a substitute for Mrs. Franklin D, Roosevelt, That was when her husband was vice- president, When the Wallaces first moved to Washington in 1933, Mrs. Wal- lace was immersed in her hcene and family. Her hair was pulled severely back, she wore unbecoming spec- tacles and didn't bother about clothes. Then political life began to make demands on (er. She was--rather unwillingly at first--forced to "pinch hit" for Mrs. Roosevelt on several occasions. She "blossomed out," as her friends say. In 1941, she was chosen the "Best Dressed Woman in Public Life."

"Do you think the Negro people are ready for full integration in the Wallace party?

Mrs. Wallace, visibly embarrassed, hesitated and then answered: "I should think they will be . . . yes," and then escaped into the next room. 4 "I will not campaign," she has often said. "I don't like. speech- making and try to get out of it whenever I can."

Hollywood Hi-4lights By BOB THOMAS 1] Hollywood--(AP)-- Just how bad is Hollywood's depression? Here are the facts and figures waich point to one conclusion: The motion picture industry is at its lowest ebb in history. Strangely enough, movie theatres are doing a healthy business, only slightly below last year, But two things offset this: 1. Movies still cost too much to make; 2. Not enough money is coming back from. showings of United States films overseas. This year's foreign coin will be less than half of 1946's. The pinch is on in Hollywood and its hitting a lot of people hard. For every three people working in the studios in 1940 there are now two. A couple of years ago, about 1,- 200 extras were working every day. Today the average is 400. Despite an urgent need for more and better scripts, 480 writers are working for studios, compared with 600 in 1946. For every three pictures shooting in 1045, there are two today. And half of the 1948 crop are quickies. These are mere figures, cold and factual, but they mean everything to those who make their living in the movie industry. The motion picture relief fund rolls also show the depression. All over town you can see the de- pression's res§lts. Night clubs are failing nightl®, and the shops that rely on the movie trade are moan- ing and groaning. Mother's Favorite A precious Sew-easy Special for busy Mothers!

BUNDESEN, M.D. THE AGED HEART Today medical men are devoting more time and thought to the prob- lems of the aged than ever before, not only with the hope of prolong- ing life but of making it more com- fortable during the declining years. * This is a very worth-while effort because the aged are faced with gradual physical and mental de- cline, Changes occur particularly in the connective tissues of the body, and these changes interfere with the nutrition of the body tissues in general. Older Age Groups Many patients in the older age groups suffer from diseases affect- ing the coronary arteries which carry blood to the heart muscle, as well as from high blood pressure and some degree of heart failure, Hardening of the arteries through- out the body may limit the blood supply available to the various body structures. In treating these conditions in the aged, so-called physical medicine has been found to be of some im- portance. By physical medicine is meant the use of such things as heat, light, massage, and exercise. Heart Disease Patients In patients with heart disease, physical medicine will not cure the condition. but may bring about enough improvement so that the pas tient can live a more comfortable and more active life. Certain forms of physical treatment may be used at home. These include such things as simple, mild exerc' and mas- sage, The correct use o: ...ese meas- ures helps to prevent the weaken- ing of muscles and aids in keeping the patient in better physical con- dition, so that as his heart disorder improves, he can more quickly re- sume normal activities. Many patients with heart disease are benefited by baths in so-called mineral waters. Many of these min- eral waters contain carbon dioxide. There is evidence that the carbon dioxide is taken up by the skin through the mineral baths and has an effect on the smaller blood ves- sels near the surface of the body. With such treatment, patients seem to have less severe attacks of heart pain and are able to take more ex- ercise without discomfort than they uld without the baths. C Heat treatment seems to be of value in hardening of the arteries in the legs, with such symptoms as numbness and tingling. The heat is | of value, but only when ly applied in the right amounts. L] should not be so much heat applied that the temperature of the legs is raised higher than the tem; ture of the body as a whole, ere is value in heat for these patients, but it must be moderate. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS A Reader: What would cause white spots along the tongue in the morning? Should this condition be treated? Answer: The white spots on the tongue may be due to an infection with germs or possibly with a fun- gus. They may also come from ale lergy or sensitivity, A thorough study should be made so that the exact cause may be found and the proper treatment carried out. BOTTLED SUNSHINE In a climate such as Canada's, children cannot depend on getting sufficient vitamin D from the sun to prevent rickets and build strong bones and teeth, Nor {s the regu~ lar diet usually rich enough in vita- min D. Sufficient vital D may be had only in the form of fish liver oils and other reliable prepa- rations, Serious Accidents Do Happen at Home One of every three accidental deaths occur in the home! The number of serious but not fatal accidents is very great . . . and of course minor mishaps are fre- quent. A serious injury to some mem- ber of your family can spell real hardship for the entire family, so practice a safety program in your home. Let a doctor examine at once any serious injury. For minor injuries a * well stocked medicine chest that con- tains fresh, sterile bandages in several sizes should always be kept in readiness. Buy these from a trusted druggist.
