This new look is one of individualism keyed to the gen-- eral trend of soft and natural influences in clothing fashions for the season: It gives top priority to waves, which usually • flow from a side part to follow the natural contour of the head. The waves also blouse out at the sides at eye level and over the ears, in addition to bringing a special fashion significance to the back of the head where they give a blouson effect at the lower crown area. A collection of the new styles was previewed before several thousand hairdressers meeting in Phoenix recently. After the Phoenix previews, the new # styles will be„shown through-' out the nation during National Beauty Salon Week, Feb. 9 to 15. This will be the beauty profession's nineteenth annual observance of this special week, which is heralded with the slogan, "Crown your beauty with a new hair style," naturally. Being natural, however, does not necessarily mean being casual; in hair styles itcanand does mean being artful without apparent artifice. This is a vital quality of the new styles. Another vital quality is that your new style definitely has to have a 1969 natural look, and not one from any other period. For instance, today's "natural look" is as far a cry from the flowing tresses of Botticelli's Venus riding in all her natural charm upon a half shell, as is the change in fashionable figures since the Renaissance. Today's "natural look" in hair styles must make the scene for every social need of the season, from the most proper church-going ensemble in the Easter Parade to the most dressy wear for leisure. It is particularly natural for topping the leggy look, be it predicated on the long lines of pantsuits, or the long legged expanse below the miniest of skirts. Hair length can still be described as comfortably short. It does need expert shaping and a soft permanent wave, prescribed just for yo.u, to give your hair the substance and easy care that is needed for the appealing natural look that it must have this season. If winter left any traces of drabriess, be sure to take some contioning treatments so your hair can look alive and vibrant. It's the fashion! ^Complexions, too, go natural, tnUhe soft rose 'and rachel families. Lips are generous and bright, and eyes ... eyes have a special treatment that enhances their soft delicacy... individual lashes added one at a time, or sometimes in twos and threes to the lower lid. What could be more natural!

Pa rty Charles Honors Sparks SHOP IN MCHENRY Spare By GERALD ANDREWS - Retirement Adviser J The Versatile Tape Recorder Last week 1 was at a tea in the community center when someone put a record on the player. Usual enough, except that this time no music came out. Instead of Mozart or Victor Herbert or Duke Ellington, we heard a long, loud, highpitched hoot, plus the clash of w h e e l s t h u n d e r i n g d o w n a track. 'lTie sound emerged from the distance, careened past, and diminished until it was but a faraway echo: a locom o t i v e g o i n g t h r o u g h a whistle-stop. You might consider this a strange kind of recording to play at a community tea. And, in fact, it's not my cup of tea -- if you'li forgive the expression. Still, many members like those sounds which don't ordinarily make the grade as entertainment. This mi&ht be called the age of the tape recorder. You find all kinds of people in various odd situations waiting to immortalize their favorites on the gamut of sound waves. ()ne of our members spends one morning a week recording the frogs in a nearby pond. And 1 know a number who do their bird watching with recorder as well as binoculars. 'ITien there's the devotee of the whizzing locomotive. When it comes to capturing the present moment in a permanent form, the tape recorder i s c h a l l e n g i n g t h e c a m e r a . Faces of friends and relatives have long been standard items in the family album . . . now their voices are being added. We can bring home, not only the sight of ducks on a lake, but also the sound of their honking as they descend from the sky or rise from the water. T h i s d e v e l o p m e n t i s , o f course, a matter of technology. People have found that tape r e c o r d i n g i s a s e a s y a s handling a camera. More and more of them, after exposure to the results, are taking up the hobby. If your taste runs to more musical sounds than the ones I've mentioned above,' well, you can have them too. Tape recordings of choice portions of Beethoven symphonies are not unknown in this fraternity of sound afi' ionados.

The only inconvenience is that sometimes you must drive around the block to reach a particular address. One-way people, on the other hand. They will run over you if you get in the way. More often than not, they're moving against the grain, forcing others to make room for them as they charge blindly about. Successful living must take into account some consideration of the other fellow. If this is not true, then the road of life leads to no worthwhile destination. No man is an island. \'o one can really walk alone. Choose your own road, uphill or downhill, along the crowded streets or off the beaten pathways and you will meet someone along the way. Nowhere on this earth can you really get away from your fellow man. Doesn't it make sense that you should recognize him when you see.'iim? Shouldn't you acknowlege that he has a destination of his own -- and the right to travel his own way so long as he shares the road with you? _ Barber Shop ^0 • Hair Coloring ^0 • Hair Styling ^ * Hair Pieces • Razor Cuts JANE'S by appointment 886-7771 Travelling Troubadors John Leighty and Allen Lyndrup will add to the romantic Venetian atmosphere as they serenade diners at the " Visit to Venice" spaghetti supper which the Women's Society of Christian Service of the First United Methodist church is sponsoring Saturday, Feb. 1.

PLAINDEALER PHOTO Audubon Chapter Acts To Save Allerton Park Dr. Ruggero To Address Woman's Club The Woman's club of Wonder Lake will hold its January meeting this Thursday, Jan. 30, at Greenwood school, 8 p.m. Icy roads were responsible for cancelling the regular meeting on the third Thursday. Dr. Ruggero of Wonder Lake will be the guest speaker. The doctor will show a film and talk about "Cancer Prevention". Daily, an increasing number of people are eager to save Allerton Park as word, of its peril spreads. Definite steps are being taken by - McHenry county chapter of Illinois Audubon society to organize a campaign by conservationminded individuals and groups such as garden clubs, bird clubs and Illinois Federation of Women's clubs. Mrs. Clyde Titus of Crystal Lake was recently appointed chairman of the project by Maurice S. Watson, president of the county Audubon club. Petitions to be signed Jty everyone interested in saving the magnificent park will soon be posted in stores, banks, office buildings and factories. Business people are being contacted for participation. The threat to Allerton park is described by club members as an alarm to everyone who values natural beauty -- not just to those who are living in the park's vicinity. Oakley dam, which would create a reservoir inundating the park, drowning virgin forests and destroying the artful .balance of natural and man-made loveliness, is the Army Corps of Engineers' "answer to Decatur's water supply and pollution problems. But it is not the only possible answer the club says. In fact, an internationally known engineering firm has developed the Harza Report which, the Save Allerton Park committee emphasizes, outlines twenty-one alternative solutions, none of which would be ruinous. Originally, the park--1,500 acres 26 miles southwest of Champaign at Monticello on the Sangamon river--was not endangered. The Oakley project which won Congressional approval did not affect Piatt county. But the Corps of Engineers without, it is contended, consulting the Piatt county board of supervisors or the city of Monticello or Congress, raised the height of the dam proposed, and almost doubled the cost to where it is now estimated as being in excess of $65,000,000 and could go to many millions more of taxpayers' money. This stupendous sum is in marked contrast to the free gift of Allerton park, supported with a perpetual maintenance fund which means it will never cost taxpayers a cent. Hundreds of thousands of people have been using the park, the Allerton mansion, furnished with treasures from many countries, and its grounds, for cultural and educational study or for recreatipn--an important escape from the pressures of this modern world. f It was in 1946 that Robert Allerton gave part of his homestead to the board of trustees of the University of Illinois, which later received his mansion and estate. There are many miles of trails and woodland roads in Allerton park. There are 17th century Italian stone figures, Bedford limestone copies of sculpture dating back to 470 B. C„ the Lost garden, hidden by encroaching forest, the Garden of the Fu Dogs, the House of the Gold Buddhas, avenues of Norway spruce, of wisteria and other flowering vines, Allerton House, the Gate House, the House in the Woods, the Brick garden, greenhouses, stables, the Spring garden close to the meadow, the Maze garden created of 3000 running ft. of privet hedge, Sunken garden, terraces, groves, the Garden Tower, a stone Adam by Rodin in a setting of clipped arbor vitae. Deer and small animals abound. It is a paradise for camera enthusiasts, botanists and bird watchers. Not all of the park would be destroyed by the Oakley project, but 600 acres of bottomland forest would be--40 percent of the total park area. This nearly virgin forest of unique trees and plants has exceptional scientific value and beauty. Over the years it has been used for scientific research by University of Illinois classes and the Natural History Survey. Senator William Proxmire of Wisconsin has labeled the project a "porkbarrel, boondoggle of the most blatant kind." TT» National Audubon Society, Sierra club, Izaac Walton League and Wildlife Federation art all supporting "The Citizen? to Preserve Allerton Park." But so far the Army Corps of Engineers is unimpressed and unhampered. The city of Decatur's approval must, it appears, be countermanded by the pleas of thousands of other citizens, who, aware of alternative solutions, are sighing petitions such as are now appearing in McHenry county.
