Dark brown coats Of tan or sun
burned, peeling noses will have no
place in the beauty picture next
summer. Frilly, feminine clothes
will be as important then as they
are now. But with them, a COM

will be positively incongruous.
This, then, is the time to decide
not TO let your enthusiasm for
early spring sunshine get the bet

when the sun is brightest and hot

spend vast sums on recondition-
ing treatments next September.
Use sunburn preventive on
your face. neck. arms and hands.
A red, peeling nose just isn't at
tractive even though IT proves
that you aren't the kind of woman
who spends sunny week ends in the
house.
A coat of unprecedented tan may
set off your denim fishing Stacks,
but it won't do much for your

For active sports. you might use

bright hpstick and no powder.
This kind OF makeup Is especially
nice on hrunettes. A blonde
might use a preparation which is

lipstick and no rouge.
Gone are the days when all sun
tan preparations were excessively
oily, sticky or otherwise unpleas-

lightly. pleasantly oily. The
greaseless ones do not make your
face feel intentionally dry.
There are lotions. oils, creams and
liquid powder types from which

your skin from the burning rays
OF the sun. but they do not make
you look like scarecrow while
you have them on.

Answer: Whenever the broken
piece can be replaced by an exact
duplicate. IL should be But this
is not always possible, either be-
cause the item would be too ex-
pensive for the guest to replace,
or on the other hand because a
duplicate is not TO be found. A
substitute might be acceptable II
the broken piece was an odd dish
or an ash tray or a vase or a
figurine. but if il belonged to a
dinner set, let's say. then an I'M
matching piece would not do at

ing told the owner how distressed

thing that her hostess surely
realizes she did not mean TO do.

ABOUT THE FIRST THING THAT A
dictatorship does is to take away the bar
gaining power of labor unions, and tell the
laboring man when and where and how he
shall work. 1t also tells the farmer when

kind of thing-Morris Tribune.
