Valley league so1tban teams. Cal

vile. exhibited an outstanding
brand Of indoor in the first week
of play. timely hitting, and bril-
liant fielding featuring all games
The attendance, however has
been disappointing Only q. few
hundred fans have turned out ior
each game and if the fans cen
tinue to stay away from these
games the Valley league will have
a difficult time finishing the sea
son out Of the red.
The fact that the valley league
is trying TO buck the amateur
fights in BraWley and Fl Centro
partly accounts for the poor at
tendance at the games. Valley
league games are scheduled Tues
day and Friday nights and the
amateur boxing matches. are held
in Brawley Tuesday nights, and
in FL Centro Friday nights.
If officials Of the two crganiza-
tions would get together and map
out a program to hold the two
events on different nights both
outfits would benefit by the
change of schedule.

2 chicken bouillon cubes in / pint
Of boiling water. This heated 10
minutes and the / tablespoon Of
tapioca and remainder Of the
curry powder was added and
cooked until the tapioca was trans

with toasted croutons.
Two kinds Of sandwiches were
made. The corned beef left from
the dinner last night was sliced
thin, spread with mustard, and
put on lettuce between thin slices
Of buttered white bread.
Then Jane had an inspiration.
There were some dried apricotS on
the shelf and some cream cheese
left from their gift cheese pac&-
age. So she stewed the apricots,
pressed them through a sieve,
added mayonnaiSe and cream
cheese (about equal parts Of cheese
and apricot pulp and spread them

nearly always flaunts a veil, often
a gorgeous one that is caught into
a bow in the back. SO that re-
leives the severity. And the Bre-
ton has q softly creased crown, or
it rolls more on one side than the
other somehow 1t manages
not to look mannish either. Like
wise your Gaucho or Spanish
sailor, with its chin strap, looks
merely intriguing, not like 1t was
meant for q toreadore.
BeretS for Suits
Other shapes are correct and
smart with tailored suits, too.
There will be any number Of
berets worn this spring, and they,
too, can grace q suit. Some Of
them look like sailor hats, pulled
down over the right eye; most
all Of them are rather different
from berets Of other years. But
they make grand suit hats.
=, Then you have your brimmed
hats with peaked crowns, or with
shallow round crowns, and so on,
ad infinitum. They are Tyrolean,
peasant, Chinese and so on in
their inspiration. They are not
masculine looking, however, and
they contribute great charm to
your suit.
Feminine BlOuSes
Blouses and. scarfs add to the
effect. Frilly blouses are grand,
and they may be in almost any
fabric. Batiste or handchief linen
are among the Smartest, and
there's considerable hand work on
them, just to be sure they are
not tailored.
All sorts Of shirts are good, too,
but they nearly always have a
pleated jabot, a bib front, pleated
softly, or something else to break
their severity. Many mannish
shirts are worn, and with four-in-
hands, but they are always in ar
resting colors, or somehow defy
you to call them masculine.

Beauty
Fac1aIs Bring
Relaxation
By DONNA GRACE

While most Of our beauty work
may be done at home by our.
selves, we must not feel that we
may be doing just as well as if
the work were done at beauty
salon.
Your beautician expects you to
keep up all treatments at home.
That is the reason for the creams
and other beauty aids ready for
home use, but they know you
should go to a shop from time to
time for a real professional treat
ment.
These experts have had years
Of training and experience and
know every phase of the work, so
do not fee. that it is an extrav-
agance to make frequent visits
to a reliable shop.
The facial-masSage movement
for home work may be simple, and
II you have my method you may
keep your skin refined and nice.
The back, however, needs about
the same treatment you give the
face, especially for the formal
gowns, and it Is difficult to ma
nipulate the back muscles by
reaching around the shoulders.
This is really one Of the best
things in a facial as the right ma
nipulation over the muscles at the
back Of the neck will relax the
whole set Of face and neck muscles.
Face and neck exercises will also
relieve the tension on these mus
cles, and they should be done every
day whether we go to shop or
not.
You may have my Facial Mas
sage Method, also the Face and
Neck Exercises without charge, If

To describe suits and hats
roughly. they sound severe. Suits
are Of the same fabrics that men
wear, and as meticulously tailored.
But they fit differently and some
where, somehow, they betray our
femtninity. Add to that the fact
that even the most severe hat will
have q veil, or q tilt to it that will
take away its mannishneSs, and
beneath your chin there win be q
frilly handmade blouse, or a gaily
printed one and you can't look
anything but feminine.
Various Sailors
Two Of the most popular hats
for wear with suits are the HON.
burg, copied almost exactly from
q man Homburg, and the Breton
sailor. Or the Spanish sailor, with
chin strap, which has rolled brim
something like the Breton, but has
q different crown, SO really gives
an entirely different effect.
Both these hats sound severe,
and both are mems hats, adapted
to women's wear. But your HON.
burg rolls differently, and 1t

bet glasses.
They had been so joyous over
the cost of last nights dinner that
I tried to get an approximation
on this and they had not the
least idea, as there were so many
odd things brought from their
emergency shelf.
Balanced Menus
"But from now until pay day
we will have it down pat, as we
have only 81 to spend, Gid Mary
tell yOu," Jane asked.
I told her that I had heard
about their budget, coming up on
the elevator, and I asked II
they were much concerned about
the nutritional value Of their
foods. -,...
"Oh, yes. We try to always
drink . pint Of milk q day. You
know we have that delivered
quart every day, and the milk
man Is paid, in full. l did that
today, thank goodness"
I could see that 1t was getting
too late to start any wide dis
cusSions on food, but calories
were only calories to them and
minerals and vitamines some
thing in the tomato Juice ad-
vertiSementS.
Hoping to get across a few
rules of menu planning, I pointed
out that bread, from which the
sandwiches were made, and tapi-
oca were both energy foods,
and while energy foods were i'm
portant. especially in cold, snowy
weather, there were many other
The Washington times., 1936-02-12

types Of foods that must be IN
cluded in q well balanced menu.
Fruits and vegetables have GER
tain substances that no other
foods have, and unless these
were included health might be
impaired.
Mary chimed In with:
"True. They do nice things
for your complexion, too. And I
can remember my mother telling
me that carrots would make me
beautiful. I ate them in abun-
dance but 1 must have started too
late or"
stopped too soon? You still
can have them-alI that you
want. In fact there are some in
the refrii orator now. Those that
you washed yesterday and put in
the old mayOnnaise jar so they
wouldn't dry out" said Jane.
Thanks. And next time, for
dinner, let's have some vege-
tables. I think we both would
enjoy them"
Seeing that they were starting
to revise some Of their economy
dinners, ! quickly said good
night" but promise to have for
you, tomorrow, some Of their bud

SMART HATS TO WEAR WITH SUITS

note Of chic to your spring

burg that is growing more
popular by the day. It's Of
gray felt with a generous
veil making a bow in the

from the severity Of the hat.

YOUNG WIFE"
r seems to me this lady should
take up with her husband the
question of going out to an oc-
casional dance. In her letter she
says nothing about his reactions
to this subject.
She doesn't drink, nor Is she
the type which lives on thrills,
so it's reasonable to suppose he
would not object, especially as
her mother is willing to look after
the child.
Personally I'm a great believer
In husbands and wives talking
out their problems. And in these
days it's pretty difficult to imag-
inc any reasonable man object
ing to his wife's having an &C.
caSional outing with friends, espe-
cially as her mother Is willing to
look after the child.
She quotes from Shakespeare
"every dog will have his day."
and it's only reasonable to sup
pose that every wife Is entitled
to an afternoon or evening.
I'd be glad to hear what other
readers have to say on this sub
ject.

Health Counsel
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.

There are only four factors
which have been statistically
proved to operate as .preventa-
tives of the common cold.
First, contact. Colds are Ger.
tainly spread from one person to
another. Moral: Avoid cold con-
facts.
Second, age. Young people and
young adults are far more suscep-
tible than others. 1t is probable
that after the age of 40 repeated
colds begin to confer immunity,
and people after SIS are usually
free.
These elderly people, however,
have more severe colds when they
do get them. These figures are
based upon the report of the U.
S. Public Health Service survey Of
1923 and 1924.
VClAbAAAbAUu
Third, weather. The incidence
of cold, wet weather is directly
proportional to the number of
colds in a community. We men,
toned yesterday the apparent
contradition that people who work
inside and who bundle up in
wooden underwear are more liable
to colds than those working in
an outside occupation. I believe
that this is due to ventilation or,
rather, the lack of it, in most
American office buildings and
workshops, not to exposure itself.
Whatever we think, though,
there is undoubtedly a relation of
bad, wet weather to colds, and
proper hardening and protection
Is advisable.
Fourth, susceptibility. There
is a definite group In the COM
munity who catch more colds
than others. This amounts to
about IS per cent Of the entire
population. For this group, when
it comes, the vaccine against the
cold virus will be a great boon.
Undoubtedly a great many OF
them also have colds because
they have q chronic infection in
the sinuses Of the nose or some
where in the throat.
There is q wide and well-de-
fined impression that the eating
Of fruits will tend to prevent
colds, and also to reduce their
virilence once acquired.
The method Of DR.. william M.
Mackenzie is as follows:
cat the first sign of cold or
influenza, all food is stopped, but
plenty Of cool, pure water IL
given throughout the course Of
the disease. Food In an inflamed
alimentary canal is worse than
useless, win not digest, and taxes
the tagging heart in an effort to
get rid Of It,. No one will starve
