CARE OF FACE IN SUMMER
Problem for Athletic Girls Is How to
Keep Skin White and Smooth
During Hot Months.

The athletic girl has problems of
her own to face just now, for she
wishes to be not only athletic but
beautiful as we'll, and 1t Is rather hard
to run the two together In summer.
The summer girl plays golf or tennis
all afternoon In the blazing sun and
swims all morning, drying of after
ward on the beach In the same sun
shine, Then when evening comes
around she puts on a low-necked,
sleeveless gown and looks aghast at
a dark-brown neck and arms, with the
discoloraton ending usually at the ell
bows and at the base Of the throat,
making the most vivid contrast with
the pure white skin which lies beyond.
To keep the neck and arms white
and smooth, especially In summer, re-
uuires little time and attention. Tho
proper care Of them night and morn
ing will keep them from tanning If the
girl uses little discretion. The sun
baths after swimming are the worst.
for it is the water drying on the skin
which makes such a deep tan. If she
will dress Immediately on leaving the
water. the summer girl will find that
the rest OF her exercise will not harm
her skin, provided she cares for 1t
properly night and morning.

HANDLING Of h DAMS BY
LANE PLEASES MOORHOUSE
PLAN TO PUT REDNIAN ON "HIS
OWN FEET DECLARED
TO BE RIGHT IDEA.

That Secretary OF the Interior f.
X. Lane is on the right track when
he advocates standing the Indian on
his own feet" in his annual address
is the belief of Major Lee Moor
house. former agent on the Umatilla
reservation. Major Moorhouse in a
statement this morning declared
himself heartily in sympathy with
the secretary Of interiors proposed
line of action, stating that from his
knowledge of the Indians he believed
they would best be helped to attain
high citizenship by being treated
less like children and wards and more
like reasoning humans.
That part of Secretary Lanes ad-
dress referring to the Indians is as
follows:
at is the judgment of those who
know the Indian best, and 1t is my
conclusion after as intimate study
as practicable of his nature and
needs, that we should henceforth
make a positive and systematic effort
to cast the full burden of independ-
ence and responsibility upon an in
creasing number OF the Indians of
all tribes. If, year by year, a few
from each of the tribes can be made
to stand altogether upon their own
feet. we will be adding to the dignity
OF the Indian race and to their value
as citizens"
