IT'S A HOT TIME

At this time Of the year we are
all confronted with the problem
OF how to keep looking fresh as a
daisy when in reality we feel like
Yesterdays gardenia. But, it EAR be
accomplished, at least to a limited
degree.
Cleanliness and beauty go hand
in hand and cleanliness is the key
note TO summer loneliness. Ne mat
ter how dashingly you may be
dressed, in your crisp new dotted
Swiss and Il big leghorn hat, You
won't make a very allurlng i'm
preston Il your powder is eaked
ON your nose, your lipstick smeared
beyond the normal line Of your
mouth, and your mascara streaked
across your cheeks.
The secret Of looking fresh on the
hottest days lies to a great extent
in the proper use of makeup. Few
of us look our best without a bit
OF artificial aid. But when using
makeup during hot weather, apply
it with a very light hand. A faint
sprinkling of powder lasts just as
long as a barrel of flour and GER
tainly is less likely 20 cake when
your face becomes damp. A bare
tracing Of lipstiek gives a much
cooler effect than a heavier applica-
ton and will not smudge as easily.
Mascara is best forgotten entirely
in the Summer in warmer climates,
unless you find some that is guar
anteed waterproof. A light appli-
cation of rouge is recommended, as
too much color may add to the hot,
wilted appearance.
To you Neutrality-suspicious. women,
I need not stress the Importance of
n daily bath. l would like to men
ton, however, that soap and water
The Omaha guide., 1938-07-23

are not sufficient in this scorching
weather-or in any weather for that
matter for assured daintiness.
There are a number Of reliable de-
odorants on the market. Choose
whichever YOU prefer and use IL re-
gularly according to your needs.
This is of vital Importance to the
f~astidions woman. Don't neglect it.
Your hair, too, should come in for
its share of consideration during
these Summer months. Your head
becomes hot and sticky and eonse-
%quently the hair should be washed
more frequently than in the cooler
seasons.
Avoid glaring nail polishes in the
Summer. A pale, subdued shade
gives a much cooler. more restful
effect. Many manufacturers are
putting out polishes especially de-
signed for Summer use. Try them
out and see if the result is not graft
flying.
Try to keep a pleasant frame of
mind. Avoid getting into a stew
literally. Letting little annoyances
put you in a temper just makes you
feel the heat more. Drink plenty of
water. Walk, don't run. Relax.
Don't let anybody make you hurry.
And see if you do not look, and ac-
tually feel, cooler.

TEACHER FLAYS NAZI
RACE HATE

CHICAGO, Dec.-(CNA) - Nazi
racial arrogance was condemned by
Kermit Elby, white, executive secre-
tary of the Chicago Teachers Union
in radio broadcast over VIGIL here.
"No. race has a monopoly on its con-
tributions to civilization" declared the
teachers spokesman. ITO the civiliz
ed person there is only one race-the
human race"
Warming that Hitlerite theories are
spreading iii this country and that
fascism "can happen here, unless all
people of good will unite to prevent
it," Eby said.
There is anti-Semitisin in the Unit
ed States. There are red-baiters in the
United States. There are people with
racial antagonisms who refuse to as
sociate with Negroes as equals. There
are others to whom the Catholic
Church is a menace.

HONORING A MODEST MAN

A new 16-room Negro school in
Montgomery will bear the name of the
foremost Negro scientist of this age
and a great American, the modest Dr.
George Washington Carver of Tuske
gee.
The children attending this new
school can take especial pride in it for
the name it bears. They can take
pride in the school because It will be
something of monument to humble
spirit that has risen to place of great
ness and respect from very slavery it
self. And they can take pride in it be-
cause DR.. Carver is an Alabaman who
achieved his unusual place without
leaving Alabama.
The Negro scientist does not need a
material monument. His works and
personal history surpass any monu-
ment that could be created by his own
people or his white friends.
But one could not think of better
Twin-City herald., 1938-12-17

analysis of his subject. AS Univer-
sity of Chicago faculty member, he has
had close contact with many refugees
from Nazi Germany, including Herr
Benes, brother of the former Czecho-
slovakian President. As a Congress
man-elect he can give a preview of
what we can expect from Congress
in the way of aid to the prosecuted
Jews and Catholics in Germany.

Nazi Persecution of Jews and Catho-
lies has made arrangements for the
