HO w and w HY
IN ALL DEPILATORIES
THERE'S SOME RISK
BY ANN ALYsIs

OF all the skin blemisheS, the
most hated by sensitive women is
unwanted hair. And they will try
almost anything that is recon-
mended in order to free themselves
of this disfiguring growth.
There are three ways in which
this may be accomplished: by
chemicals, mechanical means and
by electricity. The chemicals used
for this purpose are called depila-
tories and have the property of dis
solving horny substances, and as
might be expected of drugs having
such caustic qualities, also have a
very irritating effect on the skin.
Indeed the thing we must fear in all
skin applications, Is their setting up
such an irritation as may spread, or
become so deep seated as to be diff
cult Of cure.
Mechanical means such as tweez-
ers are preferred by some people,
while others find the small safety
razor the answer to their problem.
The so-called wax removers have
been found satisfactory by many.
Removing hear by means of cleo
tricity is thought by many to be
the best method, but this too, at
times causes irritation. 1t seems as
though that risk must be run no
matter which method is chosen.

Regard Fashion Less
There will always be certain wom-

fashion with bated breath. But, in
the main, American women are be-
coming less and less concerned with
the dictates Of the fashion czarS.
We no longer have radical up
heavals in the style Of women's
clothes. Along with our bobbed hair
and our careers we are gradually
acquiring more sense about dressing
ourselves. Almost imperceptibiy we
are putting comfort first and style
second when we plan our clothes.

Eleanor's aunt, telling her it was

IntenSito
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON


Paul Poiret, famous French de-
signer who is visiting in the United
States, says the women of our coun-
try lack daring because they are
afraid to wear anything different.
This is the reason, he tells us, why
buyers who go to Paris refuse to
purchase any styles save those that
have already been accepted and
worn.
Perhaps we might point out to M.
Poiret that this could be interpreted
In two ways. 1t might prove, you
know. that the American woman
will no longer wear anything she
does not particularly fancy, or that
she is so pleased with the present
sensible styles that she flouts the
opinion Of even such a notable au-
thority as Paul Poiret.
Extends Freedom
For along with some Of her other
freedoms, the American woman is
on the verge OF hberating herself
from the domineering fashion ex-
perts. The French designers plant
proves this. No longer is she amen
able to the dictates of another's will,
nor will she bow to the whims Of
those who needs must alter the
fashions each season in order to
make business thrive.
There are, Of course, slight
changes in the mode each year, but
taken as whole our gowns are not
much different in cut from those
worn five years ago. Skirts may
f1uctuate a bit, but the intelligent
woman realizes what length suits

CONGRESSMAN ALLEN
VISITS DAM SITES
Prominent Member of lrriga-
ton Committee FavorabIy
Impressed with Boulder
Dam Project.

Congressman John c. Allen, of
the 14th district of Illinois, a
prominent member of the House
Committee on Irrigation and Rec
lamation before which Boulder
Dam legislation has been for sew
eral years, was an arrival Thurs
day evening.
Friday morning, accompanied by
AL Kellogg of the Imperial Val
ley, Mr. Allen visited the Boulder
Canyon dam site, then went down
the river through the canyons and
viewed the Black Canyon site. He
returend to Vegas shortly after
one o'clock yesterday, very much
impressed with what he had seen
and apparently entirely converted
to the proposal to build a high
dam at Black Canyon.
Mr.. Allen and Mr.. kellogg were
guests at luncheon of a, few mem
bers of the chamber of commerce.
In the course of his remarks Mr..
Allen expressed the conviction that
the coming session of Congress
would be largely devoted to flood
control legislation. He stated that
the Boulder Dam project is a ne
cessity TO the southwest and
should be built for the preserva-
tion of the Imperial Valley if for
no other purpose. AT the same
time he urged the necessity of an
agreement between the states In
trested.
Mr.. Allen is a colleague and
close friend. of Martin Madden, the
chairman of the powerful commit
tee on appropriations of the house
and will very likely have a con-
siderable influence on his views
with respect to Boulder Dam legis-
lation. Mr.. Madden has not been
able to visit the project and there
fore will avail himself of the op-
portunity to see it through the
eyes of his friend, Mr.. Allen.
Mr.. Allen and Mr.. Kellogg left
yesterday afternoon. for the I'm
perial Valley.
