MUSIC BATTLE THREAT

A fight between the American So

which music is controlled by the
corporation, they are undecided
whether to take a chance or to close

Plaid or striped taffeta is in
good favor, too. and the colors
may be as subdued or flam-
bouyant as you like them. We
also had some good examples OF
this fashion at the congress, and

selves.
Many Laces Used
Among the white materials
used there is conservative va
riety. Linen and linen lace are
fine, and starched lace is still
good. White crepe, taffeta or
satin, finely quilted, is a smart
and becoming touch. White en-
broidered batiste, or. fine Valen-
ciennes lace are also good.
Black and pink are much
talked of in Paris, and I've seen
some good examples of the COM
bination in town already. The
pink may be used just about the
same way that white is used,
as collars and cuffs. bib or YES

or as a bow or scarf.

Skin Needs
PROTECTING
Cream
By JULIET SHELBY

Frances Drake is a girl
with very definite ideas. She
thinks for herself and knows
the answers.
Although an American, she
has spent most of her life in
Canada and England, with the
result that she has developed
a British thoroughneSS which is
apparent in everything she
does. And that thoroughneSS
is as evident in the care Of
her skin and hair as it is in
her acting.
She believes very strongly in
keeping her skin Immediately
clean and in protecting it from
California sun, northern winds
and cold weather. And when
you look at Miss brakes clear,
Smooth-textured complexion, you
are convinced that her method
is effective.
Her makeup is so smoothly
applied and Subtly blended
with her true coloring that you
would not be surprised to hear
her say that she never used
makeup.
After thoroughly cleansing
her skin with a special cream,
she uses a powder base, which
not only enhances the lovely
texture of her skin, but serves
as a protection as well.
Why don't you benefit by the
wisdom Of this charming girl?
These winter gales that make
the temperature drop to alarm
ing degrees are not kind to
your skin, nor are the hot, in
tense sun rays, if you are one
of the fortunate darlingS who
can spend hours on boat decks
or popular beaches. Your skin
needs a protection, and your
makeup requires a foundation.
Some women dislike vanishing
creams, and in order to satisfy
every feminine whim, a cosmetic
house worked away until they
developed a liquid foundation
which, they claim, gives a "chif-
fon finish" to the skin.
And believe me, if properly ap-
piled with a piece of absorbent
cotton, it does gives a fetching
porcelain overtone to the face
and neck. Arms, back and
shoulders are more than flat
tered by it under artificial lights.
It contains no alcohol; it is
an admirable finish for an oily
skin and is not drying to dry
skins. Just recently two new
shades, a brunette and peach,
have been added to the five
which have flattered femininity
for some time. Match your own

Weighed 6 Pounds

The first three of these were
In the group Of bigger babies,
the last two were the httlest
of all the little ones. The three
larger were born first, the two
smaller last. Yet for weeks
there were fluctuations in indi"
vidual weights, with first one
little girl forging ahead and
the another.
At the time of the actual
birth the five were such pitt
fully undeveloped midgets that,
though they breathed and
whimpered, I did not see how
all of them could possibly live.
Then and there I baptized
them separately.
We had no scales to meas"
ure accurately their separate
weights, but on the second
day their combined weight was
13 pounds 6 ounces, on a scoop
scale.
An excellent pair of scales
was among the gifts contrib
uted for our use on the sixth
day, and after that a full and
careful record was kept.
Frequently the newspapers
published the cribside weights
of the sisters for days at a
time, registering the gains and
losses in the free-for-all family
competition.
At one time the combined
weight of the five babies was
less than 10 pounds-at Christ
mas time it had risen to the
neighborhood of so pounds.
The lowest weight ever reached
by any of the babies was that

EYedrOpper Used

During the first few months
the quintuplets had their
"ups" and downs" but they
gained steadily on the whole
80 far as weight was con-
cerned, while their general
health also improved and they
consumed more food.
The earliest feelings, "a
hours after the premature
birth, were started with a few
drops of water, milk and corn
syrup solution, which con-
tanned one-half drop of rum.
The average quantity taken
at this time consisted of two
eyedropperfuls of the above
mixture. Now the amount of
the regular feeding has risen
to five ounces.
Watching the scales, in the
case of these children, was a
business which kept us on
tenterhooks. They were rae.
ing with each other, quite un-
consciously. They were racing
with death, besides.
They could not afford to
stand still or to lose weight
for long. and so we watched
the swinging balance with out
ward calm but with inward
apprehension or hope. How
proud we were when Yvonne
and Annette gained 400 per
cent in six months. whereas
the average normal baby
merely doubles its weight!
Weighing this baby is less
thrilling business, in most in
stances, than weighing quintup-
lets. Nevertheless, weight charts
should be kept for every baby,
not for quintuplets alone.
For the first six months a
mother ought to weigh her child
once a week, and thereafter
twice q month.
