"Soap and water are the blono

faded look which so many light.
haired, fair-skinned women some.
how acquire with maturity" says
Bess Johnson, popular radio actress
I'm the first place." Miss john
son continues, blond skins seem
to be more susceptible to dust
particles than the olive type COM
plexions. Anyway, while a dark
skinned girl often can figure out
a way to hide-temporarily. at
least-a minor blemish or two, or
a few enlarged pores, no such
thing is possible for a blonde.
Her complexion has actually to be
flawless or 1t won't look flawless. /"
Miss Johnson's own beauty rou-
tines are essentially simple. fun
damentally healthful. She washes
her face and throat with an olive
oil coap, lukewarm water and a
complexion brush each and every
morning, scrubbing gently but
firmly, then rinses generously
with very cold water and dries
thoroughly with a rather rough
towel. She repeats the same
cleansing treatment before going
to bed at night, finishing with a
mild astringent.
MAKEUP DOWN
TO MINIMUM
The radio star uses a minimum
Of makeup, believing that cosmetics
should be used to dramatize the ma
tural texture of the skin and never,
never to conceal 1t.
For daytime, she applies thin
foundation lotion, powder, lipstick
and rouge. For evening, she uses
these plus a touch Of eyeshadow
and light coat Of mascara. When
she has finished up at all. Her COM
plexion has a glowing quality,
cheeks a natural looking bloom,
lips a healthful CLEAN.
Among other beauty routines
of which Miss johnson approves
are: Ice water rinses to close the
pores after soap and water cleans
ing: applying face powder lavish
ly, letting it set, then whisking off
the excess with a soft brush; US
ing rubbing alcohol on shoulders
and arms after q bath; whenever
possible, washing her face and
neck with soap and water during
the day as well as night and morn
ing.

BIRTHDAY BALL FUNDS RAISED
WILL BE DIVIDED 5000 BASIS

Definite information concerning
the Presidents Birthday Ball pro-
ceeds was received through L. B.
Chisholm from Juneau during the
week. the literature expected by the
local committee having failed to ar
rive.
According to a letter issued by
the National chairman, after Jan
uary goth, the successful commun-
ity chairmen for the birthday cele-
brations will be invited by the
Foundation for Infantile Paralysis,
Inc. to assist in the establishment
of new Chapters The plan IS to
bring infantile paralysis under con-
troll and to eventually stamp it out
some day.
The Trustees of the Foundation,
therefore, have advised the Com
munity Chairman (of Alaska, In this
instance) to divide the funds raised
on a $3.50 basis, one half to be sent
to the national committee and the
other half to be retained by the
community chairman in trust until
the new Chapter embracing that
particular community has been es-
tablished The instructions are in
terpreted to mean an Alaska Chap
ter rather than a Wrange1l, Juneau
or other town Chapter. In this way,
local problems can be combatted and
immediate aid given to those SUI
fering from the terrible affliction.
Plans are going forward for the
Birthday Ball at Wrangell which
will be given in the gym Saturday
night Harold Maki's orchestra will
furnish the music, and the gym will
be decorated simply in the national
colors, no expense being incurred
for the decorations.

PLACER MEN ASK EXEMPTION
FROM WAGES AND HOURS LAW

Placer miners OF Alaska have
taken a step towards securing ex-
emption of Alaskan placer mining
from the provisions of the Wages
and Hours law, it was revealed in
a communication to the legislature
at Juneau-from Glenn Darlington
and Company, in whose Fairbanks
offices a meeting of miners was re-
Gently held.
Congress will be asked to amend
the clause wherein seasonal work
is defined as fourteen working
weeks or less, and make placer min
ing in Alaska thoroughly exempt
Strongest reason advanced by the
petition is that extremely UMPIRE
dictable weather" makes any sci
time for seasonal occupation as fan
as placer mining is involved, int.
practical.
1t is brought out that should The
law go into effect as is, many min
ing properties will not be opened

The Bad Taste card party given
by the Legion and Auxiliary Friday
night at Elks Hall provided a lot of
fun for those attending.
The Nobody Home" sign on the
door was followed by numerous
signs inside the club rooms all in
extremely bad taste for hosts. Wet
paint signs hanging from most of the
chairs at the card tables. Prizes for
the best bad taste costumes were
hard to award as everyone present
was eligible to some degree. In the
end Mr.. and Mrs. Ed Morke were
declared the winners. High score
prizes were awarded Mrs. H. R.
Coulter and Charles Wagner but in
keeping with the bad taste program
they were not permitted to retain
them but instead had to exchange
with those receiving consultations.

lent taste, literally, though served
on paper plates, newspaper cover
