Oil Treatments


Q.-Many times have read
in your column where you have
recommended hot oil treatments
for dry hair. Will you kindly
tell me how to go about this?-
T. A.
A.-Saturate the hair and the
scalp with heated olive oil,
particularly the split ends of
the hair, massaging it deeply
into the scalp. After the oil is
absorbed, you may steam it
with hot Turkish towels, which
will open the pores and permit
the oil to penetrate more deeply
into the cells. Apply this at
night and shampoo thoroughly
the next morning.

With the advent of winter, a

the increased demands.

SNAKE CHARMER
NEEDED At zoo

Ladies, preferably young ladies,
with a "knack" for handling rep
tiles, will be welcomed at the
Zoo.
That institution needs some
one to take the place of Suzanne,
the beautiful snake charmer OF
circus fame, to handle the five
Indian rock pythons which ar
rived there yesterday after 10000
miles of travelling about with
the Ringing Brothers circus.
The five large snakes, in their
winter quarters at the Zoo, will
be exhibited until they are re-
moved for circus duty next
spring.
The need for a local snake
charming beauty is explained by
the fact that the circus queen
doesn't want them to "go stale"
during the winter. for fear that
when she takes them out next
summer they will resent handling
and may bite.
Suzanne, DR.. William M. Mann,
director of the Zoo, explains, will
answer all questions about her
snakes, and even send post
card picture of herself to anyone
who wants to double for her
during the winter.

$500 Hear Mrs. Roosevelt Open
Woman's Crusade
First Lady Stresses
Need for Trained
Social Workers

eve are living in an adventur-
Gus period; being afraid Of
what is going to help any Of us.
Unless we alleviate some Of the
suffering going on around us we
will have difficulty ourselves"
That is what Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt told $500 people gath
cred together in Constitution Hall
yesterday at the opening Of the
Woman's Crusade for support of
the Community Chest.
Doing All 1t Can
Warning her listeners that the
Government is doing all it can,
and that it is up to the public to
help, Mrs. Roosevelt continued:
ct has gradually become an
accepted fact that life does not
consist solely in just keeping
body and soul together"
She pointed out the necessity
for trained social workers and
commented on the criticism
aroused because these workers
have been paid. She pointed
out that anyone familiar with
social work would appreciate the
fact that it takes highly trained,
experienced workers to confront
successfully the problems that
arise.

There Are 81 Ways for

At the end of a crowded after

splendid wholesome, "hurry-up"
meal. Many foods combine with
Heinz Cooked Spaghetti to pro-
duce interesting and delicious
main dishes. Such a dish, with

most satisfying. Here are two

MOSCOW. Nov. 10 GNS).
While yesterday Moscow ap-
peared pessimistic regarding rec
ignition by the United States, to-
day it is swinging toward the
heights of optimism.
During late yesterday afternoon
and early evening, meager reports
Of the conversations between
Foreign Commissar Maxim Litvi-
noff and President Roosevelt and
Secretary of State Hull filtered in
from time to time, but were so
vaguely worded as to increase the
growing Encouragement over sue
cessful outcome of the negotia-
tons.
Dining Room HUNS
Then, shortly before 2 o'clock
this morning, the we'll filled din
ing room of the Hotel Metropole
began to hum like a beehive as a
well authenticated report was cir
culated that agreement had been
reached on all points and that
formal announcement Of recogni-
ton. would be made at II a. m.
(E.S.T0 today.
The atmosphere was electrified.
An American left the room
hurriedly and soon returned with
q large American flag which he
began to wave frantically, assisted
by a Russian neighbor, both OF
them cheering and futilely en-
deavoring to stage a snake dance.
News Sets City Attire
Another enthusiast tried to per-
suade the orchestra to play the
Star Spangled Banner but failed,
probably because the musicians
didn't know it. The news swept
the city like a prairie fire.
Correspondents began to be
called to the telephone by in
quirers eagerly seeking official
confirmation, which was impos-
sible. Long after dawn the bars
of the Metropole and National
Hotels buzzed as foreigners and
Russians alike discussed the news,
arguing the benefits, while some
enthusiasts predicted arrival Of
the millennium and arranged
parties tonight in the hope Of
honoring the occasion.
