Cosmetics
By DONNA GRACE

Have you noticed the new and
attractive cosmestics that are be-
ing displayed now? All of the
store and smart salons are offer
ing us what some Of them call the
Easter packages. They may be
the same things we have been
using, but in the new guise of
colorful wrappings and boxes we
are going to find them irresistible.
We believed it is advisable to
change the whole style and ap-
pearance of our cosmetics occa.
sionally even if it is only for a
short time so as to give the skin a
change and also to be sure we are
using what is best for us.
There is another reason, too,
and one of the best: You will find
a new cosmetic outfit will be a
real stimulus to you in doing more
for your beauty than you would
with the things you have been los
ing interest in, so why not put
your regular creams, powders and
every one of the old things for a
month or two and set out on a
new beauty routine?
The Hollywood screen stars do
this frequently, even though they
have some special pet Of a cream
or makeup. They know the fun
of trying attractive new things
will make daily beauty rites a
pleasure rather than a duty.
These girls never neglect their
face cleansing and the other little
treatments that will insure beauty.
The dominant note of beauty is
not due altogether to the change
we make in our faces and hair
styling. It is subtle thing that
may be inspired by a new scent,
and there is a definite charm in
the correct use of your perfumes.
It may be through the delicate
fragrance Of one of the new body
perfumes so popular just now.
Perfume applied to the skin will
last longer than on any fabric
and really gives one a conscious
assurance of perfect grooming and
cleanliness.
Try something new, even if it is
only q tube Of cream or different
ipstick. 1t will help to make us
conscious of the beauty we have
and what daily routine will do
for it.

beauty problems, if you write to

If you like the simple but fine
frock of solid-color woolen, you
will discover that several designers
have anticipated your preference.
Such a model is in rose-beige sheer
Woolen with short, puffed sleeves
and front closing to the knee-line,
where the simple bodice is joined
in pointed yoke to the pleated
skirt. Sleeves are also pleated.
Little round collar is Of white
piQue.
No matter how much you like
color, you should include one all
black afternoon or dinner dress in
your wardrobe. A grand number
is of black-silk crepe, ankle-length,
with triple-padded roll in lieu of
sleeves, and a black-cire satin sash
and a back panel of satin.
Unusual effects Of color are
noted in a little toque of bronzey
green velvet trimmed with dark
red dahlia petals touched with
orange red at their base. The
flowers are mingled with q few
yellow and green velvet leaves.

Indeed you are not selfish . the

Now please, I urge you, call a

thing before this momentous en-
counter is ground work. suspense.
the lead to the plot.
TEN SITUATIONS
Listed in their order, according
to Hollywood, the 10 basic situa.
tions are as follows
They meet by chance.
They meet as the result Of pur-
suit by one or the other.
An act Of heroism or rescue ef-
fects the meeting.
They're brought together by
common danger.
They meet because of mutual
interest.
They meet as the result Of mis-.
taken identity.
They meet as the result OF
trickery, or designs result in the
meeting.
They meet through enmity:
conflict brings about a meeting.
They are married as the story
opens.
They have been child h o o d
sweethearts.
According to 40 contract screen
writer's, at Columbia Studios,
that's all there is in the way Of
situations for Boy to Meet Girl"
ALI the ether ways are merely
variations of these themes, they
say.
BEST WAY
It seems to me that No. 5, "They
meet because of mutual interest, "
has it all over the other nine, be.
cause it includes that greatest aid
to Cupid-propinquity.
Outside of story books, the mil
tual interest Of Boy and Girl may
be slow in dawning, because all
young people have seasons of find
ing fault with their jobs, and dis
content may be the leading motive
in this bread-winning world. To
Sweeten the situation, Boy and
Girl find" each other.
Well suppose this great discov-
cry takes place in the office, shop,
factory where both are employed.
They see each other every day, and
propinquity Of "there-ness" will do
the rest. You can't get away from
the sorcery of that situation.
Girl may get mad" with Boy,
and he may seem the most detest-
able thing on earth, or Boy may
get equally mad" with Girl, out
there is that overwhelming temp
tation to look and see what the
other is doing, and an irrepressl-
BILE smile is the beginning Of a
reconciliation.
GREATEST WRECKER
And just as propinquity is the
greatest, maker Of matches, it
seems to be the greatest wrecker
Of marriage bonds afterwards.
Why? A goodly share Of the
worlds literature has tried to
explain that riddle.
It's tragic. but after marriage
the WEAKNESS Of. seeing one par.
ticular face is apt to set; in, .un-
less the situation is handled with
patience and intelligence by peo-

expense accounts.
So today our story centers on the
old-time friend of the budget
ground meat. Several new food
touches are added to give it snap
and interest.
The first recipe uses lamb in
stead of the usual beef, and blends
smooth, seasoned tomato and
chopped stuffed olives to add the
extra rich flavor. Tomato paste
can be substituted for the tomato
puree with excellent results. In
this case, add the concentrated
paste to the lamb mixture but
dilute the tomato for the sauce
with an equal amount of water.
Ground meat becomes a wholly
different dish if cheese is blended
with it. Pineapple can also be
used as an ingredient in meat loaf.
In this case, ground pork is needed
to add the necessary fat.
When you are preparing your
oven-cooked meat loaves, choose a
dessert and vegetables that can
also be baked in the oven at ap-
proximately the same temperature.

TEA BAGS

TEA BAGS
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
when using lace tableclOths,
what kind of napkins are used, as
/ have never seen ones to match?
when being served to tea with
tea bag, what is the proper
usage of the bag. Is it allowed to
remain in the cup? 49,"
1t is problem when the manu-.
facturers of lace tableclothS casu-
ally offer the cloth and leave us
high and dry" with the problem
Of locating harmonizing napkins.
More and more, fortunately, the
manufacturers are realizing this
problem. and making napkins that
match" even if the centers are
of linen and only the edging of
the napkins match the lace Of the
cloth.
Since your. set lacks matching
napkins. I suggest that you shop
for all-linen ones. These will be
appropriate, if the shade of the
linen matches the shade of your
tablecloth.
Sometimes, too, I've found, you
come across linen napkins with a
narrow lace edge that harmonizes
with the lace of your cloth. It's
question Of serious shopping {.
and good luck.
When tea is served via the tea
bag method, you leave the bag in
your cup until your tea is of the
complexion" the strength you
wish it.
And then, as carefully as you
can, remove the bag to the side Of
the cup, on the saucer, or to an
other small plate, if one is provi-
dentially provided.
Any way take the bag from the
cup. It isn't easy to remove the
tea-bag from the cup with punctili-
GUS care, for there's bound to be
an unattractive drip!

It is not necessary to take a gift

Anything for the new house is
appropriate as gift: something in

The invitation will. I think,
specify a time for the party

"from-to-." If you mean
that the invitation might suggest

would go to the party at any time
