COUNCIL HAS APPROVED
PERMANENT AUTO TAGS

The subcommittee on legislation,
in the Maryland Legislative Council
has officially approved the proposed
plan to issue permanent auto tags in
Maryland.
The council will hear the report Of
the committee at its August Fl meet
ing, and it is expected the group will
endorse it and submit it to the Legis-
lature in January.
Automobile owners would retain
the same license plates year after
year under the proposal. The num-
bers would never change, but the date
would be stepped up each year.

When substituting evaporated milk
for fresh milk, use equal parts of
water and evaporated milk. For ex-
ample, u cup water plus 12 cup
evaporated milk equals cup whole

is non-perishable. It may be whipped
and while it should not be used as a
garnish may be incorporated into chill

Der the old ounce Of precautiOn. A
little sunshine never did anyone any
harm, but an overdose can wreak
havoc with the sturdiest. Taken in
moderate doses, the sun is the best
possible medicine in combating
colds and general rundown condi-
lions, but remember that moderation
is an important factor.
Before exposing your skin to the
sun for any period Of time, be sure
to apply Oil to the exposed parts.
Applied before you go out in the
sun, it keeps the skin from drying
out and wrinkling; applied after a
sun bath, it helps replace the nat
ural oils Of the skin. If you are in
the sun for long stretches, re-apply
the oil from time to time. Be sure
to build up your resistance to the
suns rays gradually-a few min
utes the first day, a minute or two
more the second, etc. An overdose
of sunshine, before you have &C..
customed your skin to it, can have
dire results.
Be sure to drink plenty of water
before embarking on a sun bath.
The sun makes you perspire and
removes the liquid from your sys-
TEN, and you must replace it con-
stantly.
Don't let my warnings brighten
you unduly. If you'll follow these
simple, sensible rules, you can have
your full quota Of fun and come
through the summer with glowing
health.

At the beginning of the summer
it is wise to decide whether you are
going to avoid any hint of sunburn
or whether you'll just take the sun
with your finland then chart your
curse accordingly.
Foundation Cream Protects The
Skin
For those Of you who would pre-
fer to take precautions against the
sun now rather than combat its eff
feet when Fall sets in, the first re-
quirement is a good foundation
cream. Make it a rule never to go
out by day without first generously
coating the exposed portions of your
skin with this cream. Foundation
cream not only protects the skin
from sun, wind and glare, but serves
as an excellent powder base. You'll
find that your makeup goes on
more smoothly and remains intact
hours longer when applied over a
powder base. A good foundation
cream, too, helps soothe and soften
the skin.
Your next step is to invest in a
large brimmed hat. The brim will
serve to keep the sun off your face
and neck and at the same time pro-
tect the eyes from glare, thus avoid
ing squint and frown lines. Long
sleeved dresses, too, are in order
and you will have to give up all
idea of sunback dresses and
deep V-neckS. You may think the
more concealing dresses will prove
a great deal warmer for summer
wear, but it's surprising how little
difference they make. Anyway, it
will be worth it when fall comes If
you can point with pride to the fact
that your skin is no darker in Sep
TENDER than It was In May.
A Word Of Warning
For those. Of you who are too in
terested in outdoor spOr,s to be will
