,uld Haze at Least One Baby If It Is Possible
Stars Use
Oil On
Skin
By JULIET SHELBY

If you were to come face
to face with Dolores del Rio
in a bathing suit, you would
become inarticulate. Her
breathtakingly lovely skin is
a rich, even bronze, with q
smooth transparency that
few women can acquire.
Actually she is what I would
call an incompatible bathing
beauty!
Yet Dolores swims but little;
she donS her bathing suit to lie
in the sun. Between pictures she
rushes to Mexico, or to the
desert at Palm Springs, where
she spends most of her waking
hours in sun-bathing. She is a
sun worshipper, if ever one lived.
She confessed to me that she
can stay in the sun for four
hours, scantily clad, without
feeling any i'll effects from the
heat.
Lucky girl! Most of us have to
crawl out of the sun after twen-
ty minutes, or else suffer with
sunStroke for hours afterward!
But don't think she doesn't pro-
tect her gorgeous skin when she
is enjoying those strong, hot

He Double Crossed Her

He DOuDle-CrOSSed Her
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I fell in love with a girl who
is very pretty. She said she
loved me, too. One day 1 made
a date with her to take her to
a dance, and it was just my luck
that an old acquaintance showed
up, too.
I double-crossed the girl I
really love. Since then she won't
even look at me. I know it's all
my fault and have sent notes Of
apology, but OF no avail.
Since she gave me up I can't
sleep. I am ashamed of myself
and would do anything to prove
that I'm sincere. Please help
me. L. c.
How can make any sugges-
tions on your case, when you
do not inform me just what you
did? If you said or did any,
thing unforgivable, and the girl
will not accept your plea for for
giVeness, I'm afraid you'll have
to grin and bear it.
Time is the great healer. Why
not wait till things have blown
over a little and then renew
your attempts at reconciliation?
Meantime, if you can afford
it, you might try sending her
flowers-few girls can resist
them.

Get Right Care

From long observation I can
report that big families are not
necessarily a killing strain on
the mother, provided she re.
ceives the right sort of care
before, during and after the
arrival of the babies.
Nor is there necessarily
given good stock and proper
care-a high infant mortality
among big families.
Too much can be made of
certain widely quoted figures
on maternal mortality. While
the problem is getting earnest
attention from doctors them
selves, through their medical
associations in New York and
elsewhere, yet the actual sta
tistics ought not to be printed
without careful Interpretation.
To say, for example, that
$4,000 mothers die annually
makes the business of having a
baby sound pretty dangerous.
But this very computation is
swelled by the inclusion of all
the deaths which occurred not
while women we're trying to
have babies but while they
were trying to avoid having

rays. LaviShly she smearS her
body with a common oil which
she doctors by blending it with
a rich perfume.
When the sun absorbs it, she
once more applies it generously.
And that is how she retains the
beautiful texture and shade Of
skin which is the envy Of every
woman who sees her.
Many other Hollywood stars
use this same oil. They recon-
mend it for body massage as we'll
as for Sun-bathing. 1 know sew
eral stars who are massaged
with it every day while they are
working on picture; others ap-
ply it to their bodies before a
hot bath, two or three times a
week. ~'''t I
The Hollywood climate is dry

Natural Function

It is right to focus atten.
tion on measures to safeguard
maternity, but too much alarm
ist talk frightens women. If
only they would realize that
there is nothing to dread about
the natural function of crea-
ton! A normal woman, under
proper medical care and super.
vision, should feel no fear of
the process.
Probably as much suffering
and danger, in the long run,
Is experienced by women who
can have children but refuse to
have them IS by the mothers
of the race. Methods employed
to avoid maternity often not
only injure health but imperil
life.
Nature, moreover, says that
q woman was made to bear.
The really dangerous adventure
is for her to go against nature,
deliberately and of her own
free will, for nature has way
Of taking revenge.
If the organs and glandular
SecretionS designed for con.
structive growth-for the little
human baby-are not used for
that purpose the whole balance
of the body and of the nervous
system may be destroyed.
What trouble can be stirred
up by glands suffering from
unemployment at their proper
job is something about which
doctors find out more every
day.
The Washington times., 1935-01-31

guished mainly by the unusual
one-sided bodice, which was
beautifully draped, and by the
lovely train, which was beauti-
fully shaped and bound so that
it looked quilted about the
edge. The veil was of tulle
with real orange blossoms,
which made the brides bouquet,
too.
But the clothes that we are
really interested in are the
other things in the trousseau,
which we will no doubt see here,
such things as her pill-box hats,
street coats and suits. There's
black Persian lamb coat, made
full and flaring, three-quarter
length, with a detachable hood
collar that gives it a nice line.
Then there's a beige wool
street coat with huge beaver
collar in plastron effect and
wide cuffs of the same fur. It's
very much like coat we showed
at the Fashion Congress not so
long ago, except that the local"
coat was of green wool. BY con-
trast, there is no fur on a black
velvet evening gown, which is
long, has slim sleeves, and a
large draped collar that is al
most a ruffle.
The Washington times., 1935-01-31
AUOid Penalties

The woman who can have
babies and refrains through
timidity should "take heeG lest
a worse thing befallr Her
nerves and emotional stability
can be so adversely affected
that as a result she becomes
neurasthenic, pathologically ir.
ritable, even deranged.
These are among the phySi.
cal penalties which menace
the wife who goes A. w. o. l..
from natures own mobilization
of womankind into the army of
motherhood. She should neither
ignore nor put off too long her
active duty.
To the contrary, the woman
who brings life into the world,
nurses it, cares for it, finds
that her whole personality is
vitalized and enriched. Having
a baby, instead of being a
menace to her health and hap
pinesS, is the natural Stimula-
ton of both!

She Wants
To Marry

written Exclusively for The
Washington Times)
Dear Miss Fairfax:
During my summer vacation,
I met a girl, and when I re-
turned home, she called me up
and invited me to see her.
She had followed me to Wash.
ington.
went over that night, and
we have had quite a number
of pleasant evenings together.
All of a sudden she told me she
loved me, but I can't say that
I'm in love with her.
She's good company and all
that, but ! just don't care
enough for her to marry her,
and she's always talking of
marriage.
It has been four months since
we've been seeing each other.
Should I keep up this friend
ship or break off with her?
LEWIS.
Watch your step, my dear
young man, o, this girl will
have you walking up the aisle
with her. You say you respect
her and enjoy her company.
Well, she might make a good
wife, but if you are not so in.
clined, why marry at all?
Often in cases like yours, men
find themselves married, with
out knowing how it came about.
Some young ladies are great
strategists, and if you're not in
love and don't wish to marry,
better leave while leaving is
good,

The Little Tasks


The Little Tasks
It lies in great and noble tasks
Mans lofty sphere to prove;
But, ah, it is the little tasks
That always speak of love!
The kindly tasks, the tender
deeds
Which every heart recalls,
These fill the spirits vital needs,
These build a homes four walls.
Sometimes the mighty tasks
must be
Through wealth or power
wrought;
The small tasks done by you
and me
Need only gracious thought.
And yet, these little tasks can
send
A gleam across the day,
Across the years unto the end,
No care can take away.
The proud, aspiring being asks
On splendid quests to move;
But am glad of little tasks
Because they glow with love!

wedding Plans
Dear Mrs Reecknan.

Wedding Plans
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
am going to a church we'd
ding followed by a reception in
the church parlors. What is
the proper way to give money
as a gift? Should it be in the
form of a personal check,
money order, or just the cash
with card?
Is it proper for the sister of
the bride to be an attendant?
The bride has chosen a maid
of honor, a matron of honor
and a bridesmaid. The maid
of honor and the bridesmaid
have gowns alike. What is the
proper way for them to march
in to the altar. R.
Your wedding gift should be
sent before the wedding, ten
days or a week before, if pos.
slble. If you are giving money
for your wedding present, it is
best to send it in the form of
a check, and the check should
be accompanied by a note ex.
planning that you thought that
the bride-to-be might like to
buy with this money something
that she would especially like
to have for her new home.
If you haven't checking
account, or if for some reason
you don't wish to send a check,
send your gift in the form of
a money order. But don't send
1t in the form of money!
Yes, usually the sister Of the
bride is the maid of honor or
II married, the matron of honor.
If the maid of honor and the
bridesmaids have dresses alike,
then I think that the matron of
honor should also have a dress
like theirs. If this isn't accord.
ing to your wishes, then I Sug.
gest that you call the maid of
honor a bridesmaid, and have
the bridesmaids, dressed alike,
walk together, before the ma.
tron of honor, who would walk
alone before the bride and her
father.
Or you might invite another
friend to be another bridesmaid,
have them walk together, after
the ushers, then the maid of
honor walking alone, and then
the matron of honor, walking
alone.

Physicians almost universally
concur in the belief that every
woman who can do so should
have at least one child. Per-
sonally, 1 have said sometimes
that, if I were a married woman,
I'd have a child every two or
three years.
In our little Canadian COM
munity are many who keep up
that average for a long period
and seem none the worse for it.
Ten children are the usual
number per family.
I brought II babies to one
woman, and another in the COM
munity has had % children, all
but one of whom are now liv-
ing.
Perhaps this state of affairs is
the reason why the outside world
is far more impressed than Mrs.
Dionne's neighborS with her
achievement. She had only six
offspring before the arrival of
the quintupletS, so her friends
feel that she is merely filling
her quota!

Wedding Anniversary

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
When a couple is married on
Thanksgiving Day, when do
they celebrate their anniver-
saries? On the date or day? A
says the day, since that was the
day particularly chosen for the
occasion. B says the date is
the correct time as anyone else
who gets married on a certain
date. B.
1t is customary to celebrate
wedding anniversaries on the
date. But there is no reason
why this couple should not cele-
brate their anniversary on
Thanksgiving Day if they chose
that day because of special
sentiment for the meaning Of
the day.
