-HEAUTY~---' GIOrfng
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart

A beauty preparation which serves more than one purpose is inc valuable to the traveller or to one who spends almost every weekend out of town. If you are tired of trying to squeeze just one more jar into an already bulging bag and of making your hostess guestroom look like a cosmetic cabinet, do consider some of the special items that are being featured now.
 For instance, there's @ new cologne that is milky instead of clear and which serves as clean ser and powder base, as well as skin freshener. Compilations which do not need heavy night creams can use the light creamy liquid as Q softener after soap and water cleansing. One who travels by train, plane or car could get along very well with a bottle of this, loose powder compect and @ lipstick.
 If you like liquid powders, you can leave your box of regular face powder at home. Remember, how ever, that 1t takes some skill to ap- ply these smoothly and evenly. Pour a bit in one hand and, using fingertips of the other, cover one small area at a time. When face and throat are entirely covered, let the liquid set a few moments, then dust off the excess.
 When you are miles and miles away from your favorite manicurist, nail lacquer that really will stay on on for more than Q week is e pretty important time saver. One particularly good brand comes in several new shades tht re fittering to suntanned hands, is easy to ap- ply and will say on wek in spite of daily dips in salt water.

closely concerned her own life. From time Co time she stole q glance at the handsome young profile beside her. A rather good profile, too, promising much in strength of character and determifi- ation of purpose. Bob's blonde hair was always just Q little ruffled; but this only added to the devil-may- care expression which radiated in every word he spoke and in oil his actions.
 Sixteen years is Q difilcult age in the life of any pretty girl. But to Mary, life was just . succession of thrills, misgivings, dates and problems. She had worked hard ct her studies ell through the past semester, and Q sigh of relief es. capped her lips, as she prided herself that already she had completed her third year of High School. "But phooey on studies tonight: isn't va- cation just starting?" she told her. self. And Mary was content in the thought that life owed her Q grand time ct sixteen, anyway, and she meant to go to town.
 But with all the ecstacy she felt at the prospects of romance, she found her heart caught in the ripe tide of two separate attractions, There was Bob, blonde and confi. dant; but how about dark.eyed Donald, who always enjoyed being In her company, with all his shy. ness? All the while she was trying to pay attention to the continuity of the screen story as 1t unreeled before her, that very disturbing comparison between her two widely different lovers rose to her mind. "Why is Donald so shy? If he loves me and wants me to 90 steady with him, why doesn't he say the things that want to hear?" Her thoughts con" tinued the same trend: "He has Q nerve to expect me, to cut out Bob, when he never invites me to the exciting places that Bob always taxes me to-" On and on this trend of thought occupied the vacillating mind of Mary, pretty and sixteen
 Again she stole Q secret glance up to blond Bob. But this time ne sensed her interest; and answered merely by Q pressure of her gloveo hand as 1t lay on the arm beside him, Was 1t the handsome dark haired hero of the motion picture which reminded her 50 of DonaloY But with that image Mary's heart rose in her throat, or 50 1t seemed For 1t was only yesterday that ne warned her over the phone, that sne must definitely decide whose gri friend she intended to be. He told her that he did not favor two" timers, and If she went out again with Bob or any other fellow ne was through.
 What should she dop Her parents were sColding her too. But heE heart was tormented as, over ana over, she asked. herself the question; DO I love Donald, with all his pc" culiarities? Or do I really care for Bob? He's swell boy; @ bright per" sonality, and he knows how to give me Q good time. Her thoughts at this point were. interrupted by the general commotion which always oc- CUTS, when the first show of the eve ming Is over, and many people are making for the exits. Here IS her letter:

Along with 1t are certain other characteristic signs-notably dry- ness and loss of hair, absence or thinness of outer thirds of eyebrows, complaint of feeling cold under con- ditions which are comfortable or even too warm for normal persons, general hebetude, dopiness, indispo- sition to work or play, inability to be happy, perhaps tendency to- ward melancholia.

 do not think 1t safe or wise for any one to take thyroid in any cir- cumstances except under medical supervision.
 But do think 1t is safe and wise for every one who is not under medical care to take suitable iodin ration, and this includes school chil- dren as well as adults.
 am glad to send to any reader who provides a stamped envelope bearing his address, instructions for taking a suitable iodin ration.
 In these instructions I say:
 Adults may not show goitre as a manifestation of iodin shortage, but instead of chronic tired feel- ing and lack of usual or former ambition, energy or pep. with lit- tie refreshment from rest or a vacation. a tendency toward ac- emulation of fiabby excess weight. depression of spirits or melancholia. premature aging, graying and falling of hair, poor circulation (cold hands and feeD, mental torpor."
 There. reckon that will cover half the ills flesh is heir to. And do hope the mental torpor is not so deep that you forget to inclose the stamped envelope with your ad- dress on it-the name of your town, not City" or "Locap as so many mentally torpid folk do.

Paris Styles
Ny MARY FENTRESS

Paris (UP)-Maggy Rouff has taken a firm stand about the tall ored. close-fitting jackets that arc becoming to a small percentage or women and are distinctly ugly on most women. This couturiere con- tinues to make the loose, swagger coats that come to finger-tip length. Her new jackets hang straight or slightly fiaring from fitted shoulder yokes topped with simple little turn over collars.
 The fitted waistline, which has been so much emphasized this sea- son at every Paris dress house, is shown at Maggy Rouff's also. But this designer reserves the fitted waistlsne for the moulded suits with pepium flares on the jacket, which can only be worn by the very slender.
 Outstanding in the collection is a shit in black made with straight slxIrt and a short, loose finger-tip iacket. The cool blouse if of a printed chiffon. With a tailored blouse, the suit becomes practical for street wear.
 This loose jacket is seen through out the collection. It is used as q IIQht.weight wrap to be worn over pastel or printed summer silks. For evening wear. the same type Of iacket in satin is used over a chif- ion evening gown. Sometimes the Jackets match the gowns. sometimes they are a contrast in tone. or sometimes they arc in sa solid color. which is particularly prominent in the print evening gown.
 For fall Maggy R0uff Is showing mnottled tweed Jackets with man. nisls collars of velvet. The jackets. naturally, are full and loose.

Wire communication brought to the
attention of scientists the fact that
electric currents are continually flow
ing in the earth's crust from natural
causes. This knowledge did not become
known until the middle of the last
century when these currents mani
Tested themselves as a source of inter-
ference in the grounded circuits of
telegraph lines.
The general characteristics of earth
currents have, since the existence Of
telephone communication, interfered
with the operation of the lines and
more recently with radio transmission.
Earth potential differences were OBJ
served during electromagnetic storms
on various circuits of the Bell Tele-
phone System with the result that sci
entiic studies of earth current condi-
lions as related to radio transmission
and magnetic storms were first under
taken by the Bell Telephone Labora-
tories soon after the Inauguration of
transocean telephone service in 1927.
These Investigations have estab-
lished a definite correlation between
abnormal earth currents, magnetic
storms and variations in transocean
radio telephone transmission. More
recently the scope of the work was
extended to include study of normal
variations as distinct from the dis
turbed conditions to which the previ-
Gus studies had been restricted.
Locations were chosen for these
further measurements at Wyanet, Illi-
nois, which is situated in the Missis-
sippi Valley where the soil is believed
to be very deep and the geographical
formation homogeneous; at New
York, which is located at the northern
edge of region known to have high
resistivity; and at Houlton, Maine,
which is much more northerly than
either of the other two places and is
in the region where auroras appear
frequently. At these locations continu-
GUS recording has been done over a
period of time. Measurements were
also made for short periods at vari-
GUS points along the Atlantic Coast.
The underlying causes of earth cur
rents are not completely understood,
but it has been definitely established
that they have daily and annual cycles,
which vary with geographical loca-
lions. When solar disturbances occur
and during auroral displays large
transient earth currents flow and
there is an accompanying disturbance
in short wave radio signals. Further
extension Of the knowledge Of these
currents and more complete coordina-
ton of the data with the associated
solar and magnetic phenomena and
with radio transmission are needed
because of their bearing on the en-
cheering Of radio circuits. That
knowledge the telephone laboratories
engineers hope to obtain by these tests.

Use Closet Space
For Wrapping Shelf

A convenient place to wrap up
packages and keep all the paper and
Irvine that is needed for that trouble
some operation is joy seldom real
lied in our homes. If you have a
closet in which you can spare one
end, set up a shelf about 80 inches
from the floor and as deep as the
space will allow. On the wall on
one side you may install a bracket
to hold roll of wrapping paper
and at the other place for the Irvine.
If you save the paper and Irvine from
packages received, provide rack be-
meath the shelf, like magazine stand
for the paper and small drawer for
the Irvine. Another way of keeping
the Irvine is to set up some hooks
above the shelf to hang the pieces of
Irvine over. This keeps them from
getting tangled.
