Earrings that screw on are a con-

from being screwed on too tightly,

II your ears are well-shaped and

get the habit Of doing your hair so
that they show.
BY curling your hair behind them,
or wearing your hair 50 that just a

but the rest shows, or by showing
the tops and not the lobeS, you can
get a new effect that may be stimuli
lating, and certainly just changing
your hair Is interesting.
Last, but not least, comes that
important feature, makeup for
your ears. Do you know that ears

ally, but a certain brunei stage
beauty Is creating quite furore by
parting her black curls so that the
tops of her ears show through the

work. That is poor taste. For this
little added touch is a glamorous
