beneficial results. ! know it's fun
to dabble in these advanced prep
arations but I'm sure you'll forego
their use. when you realize that
such indulgences will prove dis
astrous rather than beneficial.
Rouge is a matter of individual
need. Some girls have no coloring,
even in their early teens and in
such cases / think you should be
permitted to use a good rouge If
YOU will take the time to apply j.
lightly. bend smoothly and choose
a tint that matches with the gen.
eral one OF your skin and COM
plexion.
Any operator In a beauty salon or
partment of a shop will be glad
SaleswOman in the cosmetic de-
to help you select the right shade
OF rouge for your cheeks and lips.
After your choice has been made,
apply the rouge lightly because
your w natural color will come
up as you become interested in
dancing. playing or tennis. This Is
an unfailing sign of youth.
AT night, before you 90 to bed.
no matter how tired you are, re-
move your makeup using cold
cream first even though you follow
this with a soap and water wash
ing. Nothing removes cosmetics as
completely IS creams because the
oils used in their composition pene-
trate deeply into the pores and so
minimize the possibility of black
heads and such blemishes.
Use light weight powders be-
cause as a general rule the texture
Of your skin is too fine and deli
cate to make the use Of heavy
powders advantageous. Heavy pow
ders were formulated to meet the
needs Of women whose skin has be-
come coarsened as they grow older.

 RESCUE DRILLS ESTABLISHED !5|l
Training and Apparatus Enables Kennecott Crew
 to Stop Big Fire

Mine rescue training and appar- }atus combined recently enabled the crew at the Bonanza mine of the Kennecott Copper Corporation to prevent "a disastrous. fire there, according to word just received by B. D Stewart, Mining Super visor for the U- s. Bureau of Mines in Alaska. ll
 In fighting the fire, one of the crew. was overcome by gas and had to be taken out. He recovered in a few minutes. after reaching the open air Ut ige . sss
 A letter received by MT. Stewart from Superintendent w. c. Doug las, gave the folio wing account of the fire; .f t as.9 f4lHs
 "A fire started in the shift boss office on the t50 or Main Level of the Bonanza Mine son November 4 It was first discovered when the men went into the mine to go on the day shift. The shift boss office was small room cut out of solid rock, but it was boarded on the front and also had wood en roof. When the fire was. dis covered the office was completely demolished and the fire had spread over the entire station and into the incline.
 The Bonanza men who had been trained in the use of the McCaa Breathing Apparatus made five trips into the fire from II am. to Il pm. and were able to extin- guish the fire entirely during their last trip.
 "The work of fighting the fire was carried on with only one mis- hap and this was caused by the nose clip of one apparatus being knocked off by the man catching it on loose wire. This man was knocked out immediately by gas, but he was revived in less than a minute after the other hel- met, men brought him to the clear air.
 Without the McCaa Breathing Apparatus and the training which the men had received from MT. Miller (first aid instructor), we would have been helpless in fight ing this fire and the Bonanza in cline would have been completely destroyed for over q distance of 100 feet from the 150 level to the sheave wheels. The fire would also have spread into the Mother Lode sampling plant md this would have been seriously dam aged As it was, the damage was entirely repaired in two days time and we lost only three shifts work in the Bonanza and Jumbo Mines"
