has gained national fame as a
leader in this field.
One of the most complete sound
systems in Washington is provided
at the Penn Theater. There is a
double amplification system, so
that if anything goes wrong. a
switch from one system to the
other may be made without in
terrupting the program.

Energy and
Galleries

Mabel E. Baldwin dedicates
"Diet and Like It" to those who
would reduce and to those who
would not gain, but whatever her
system does to the contours, it's
going to prove a ray of purest
light serene to the lean beef and
boiled egg consumers.
The pineapple and lamb chop
advocates will also welcome it,
while those who have endured
the starvation pains of an 18-day
diet will flounce into an agony Of
self-pity.
In brief, Mabel E. Baldwin does
away with all the worst parts Of
diet. She let's you eat and natur-
ally you like it. Her method is
something like the method worked
out by Well-known life insurance
company, in which the counting Of
calories measures the daily energy
intake and the daily energy out.
put of the body.
She simply tells you how much
energy you spend according to
your lights and occupation. Then,
she shows how easily the caloric
value of the days food supply
may be limited to do away with
the storage of fat. All this evolves
into a reducing diet, including
such toothsome combinations as
cheese and ham sandwiches spread
with butter, as well as an &C.
caSional dish of baked beans.
The trick is knowing how huch
to eat of each food and what to
eat it with in order to make the
loW-calories diet a protective diet
as well. Furthermore if your
height is less than feet 6
inches, your diet differs in caloric
value from diet suggested for
persons 5 feet and over.
There are many pages Of
menus and charts to record the
progress of weight reduction,
which according to Miss Baldwin,
will amount to from to IL
pounds month. Only. Of course,
il you follow her instructions
faithfully. But those are easy.

Skin Lotion for
Hot Days
By JULIET SHELBY

Summer days always bring
more natural makeup to the
fore. In fact, the summer
months offer a grand excuse to
give your skin a rest from
rouges and powder, providing
you use the proper protective
lotion.
Lots of good healthful out-of-
door exercise and sun bathing
give your skin a better color.
You find you need less rouge
and actually, if you try it, you
can get along without any dur
ing the day. OF course, at night
we always go little more CLAM
orous, and then bit of color in
our cheeks is necessary.
But take a girl like talented
Margaret Lindsay, for instance.
This attractive Warner Broth
ers star is a natural beauty.
Looking at her you would swear
that she uses no makeup what
ever, and yet Margaret uses a
powder foundation, powder and
a becoming shade of dark lip
stick. The effect is extremely
natural, not artificial.
You should strive to get such
an effect during these next few
months. For all sport and cas-
ual clothes call for such makeup,
and the obviously rouged
cheeks and lips, and the powder
that does not blend with your
own skin tone all Shrek Of
carelessness!
One foundation on the mar
ket beauties your skin even on
a sweltering day, leaving a deli
cate Semipowder film that is not
only most becoming but quite
suffices as your entire skin
makeup. A vivid lipstick or g.
soft harmonizing shade is the
only other touch needed.
You have a choice of three
smart Shades-the newest be-
ing a deep Indian tan shade,
excellent for sun-kissed ladies.
This flattering skin finish
guards the skin from drying

only to weigh him regularly,
for example, but to keep a
weight chart so that the doctor
can check up on whether the
child is gaining normally for his
age and birth weight.
If the doctor advises it, the
mother will know how to keep
a food chart, showing the baby'S

when she turns her attention

You should try to meet a girl

Sheers for Street

Dotted street frocks are ultra
smart this season, both alone
and combined with plain color.
Navy, brown and dubonnet are
the popular colors for dots, on
the street, and you'll find many
dark dots on pastels, or on
white.
In the evening again you have
dots for a compromise. If you
don't want your gown to be
too formal, no matter whether
it is of crepe or organdie, have
it dotted, and people just can't
tell the difference. An organdie
with big embroidered dots and
puffed sleeves can be for a gar
den party, dance or what have
you, without a possibility of
criticism.

Optinnist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
InterIude

We grow so far away
From selves of yesterday,
We scarcely can recall
The things which meant their
all.
No echoes, drifting, float
Across high wall, wide moat
That shuts away the past
AS with distant vast.
Until we tread one day
Some once-familiar way.
Then, with a sudden change,
This self, today, grows strange;
White magic lets us through
To all that once we knew;
Old loves, old dreams arise
Before our startled eyes.
We enter now once more
A long-forgotten door.
Again the ecstasy;
A little hour, then we
Are swiftly thrust away.
The past grows vague and gray.
