.BEAUTY-
Clarifying
Yourself
By Alicia Hart

Many of our modern beauty aids
were used, in one form or another,
by the women of ancient Greece
and Egypt.
Today's cosmetic experts have i'm
proved on the old formulate and have
created new ones, of course. They
have discarded useless ingredients
which were supposed to have a
magic power in favor of those which
are scientifically effective.
EGYPTIAN LADIES
HAD THEIR "PERMANENTS"
But there's nothing startlingly
new about many of the preparations
we use every day.
Iridescent eyeshadow, for instance.
Cleopatra achieved about the same
effect with a finely ground powder
of mother of-pearl which she duS-
ted on her eyelidS.
Women of Egypt gave themselves
permanent waves" by letting the
sun bake mud onto the hair. First,
the hair was washed, then wound
around sticks. then smeared with
mud. They sat in the sun until the
mud caked. After which, it was
broken off, the sticks removed and
the hair combed.
Naturally, the process was by no
means pleasant, and probably none
too efficaciouS.
But getting modern permanent
Ill
forever either.
CLEOPATRA HAD
HER MAKEUP" KIT
The modern counterparts of the
milk baths which Poppea, Neros
bride liked so well, are found in the
paSteurized milk preparations avail
able in dainty packets today. Poppea
filled the tub with milk. but we SIM
ply pour pasteurized milk into tub
of water. The same softening, relax
ing effects are obtained. however.
The Greeks used perfumed oil on
their bodies after bathing. Now we
may apply cream or creamy lotion
from head to foot before stepping
into the tub and follow the bath
with a rundown of scented cologne
or luxurious bath powder or one OF
the specitl after-bath lotions.
The hair curriers' of Cleopatra and
her ilk were not much unlike our
marching irons or plain electric
curriers' for home use. And their
dressing table jars and pots were
every bit as handsome: Their rouge
may have been more crude, their
powder coarse, but containers for
them were stunning.

Transforming dull stringy hair
into a shining, fluffy halo! That's
just one of the many miracles
skilled beauty operator performs.
No wonder her profession is such a
popular and profitable one.
BY studying scientific methods at
home you, too, can take the first
step toward beauty career.
The right treatment for oily hair,
for instance, is simple The hair is
washed at least once a week, using
gentle shampoo preparation. After
the shampoo an aStringent scalp
tonic is applied to restrain the over
flow of relaxed oil glands.
Moisten cotton with the tonic
into scalp, as small sketch shows.
Repeat this tonic treatment two or
three times between shampooS, first
giving the hair a brisk brushing.
What to do for dry hair? Sup
plement the deficient natural oils
with fabrication, using an oily tonic
or pomade.

q. How can one determine the
proper temperature for a room in
which small children play?
A. Have a thermometer about
three feet from the floor. The tenn
perature should be from IS degrees
to So degrees if the children are prop
erly dressed and protected. Healthy
babies are much better off in a cool
room. They should be protected by
screens against drafts of cold air.

Q. What is the proper method
for waxing a floor?
A. Use either a clear or colored
floor wax. The colored wax makes a
warm looking floor. Use a small
amount of wax and rub long and
hard following the grain of the
wood. A flannel cloth may be used
to polish it by hand, or a heavy
weighted brush or an electric brush
polisher may be used. New or re-
finished floor will need to be waxed
every two or three weeks for the
first six months and about twice a
year thereafter. This finish has a
soft sheen and is easy to apply and
care for. A dry dust mop may be
used to care for it, and worn spots
can be re-waxed without showing.

Morrison Will Put

Is Expected to Assist
Former Vondy Coach
BY the Associated Press.

PHILADELPHIA, March S.
Temples football followers who have
become accustomed to watching the
Owls depend mainly on off tackle
thrusts are in for new deal"
The signing of Ray Morrison to a
five-year contract yesterday as head
coach to succeed Fred Swan means
that the Owls this fall will go in
for the razzle- dazzle style of foot
ball.
Morrison, who resigned at VAN
derbilt University to accept the
Temple job at reported $4,000
yearly salary, won Nationwide fame
as "ringmaster of Southern Metho-
dist's aerial circus" when he coached
the Methodists from 1922 to 1894.
will you continue to favor the
open style of play?" he was asked in
a telephone conversation at Nash
vile.
Much as I can," Morrison re-
piled. II like to take a chance, you
know"
Morrison will bring with him from
Vanderbilt Henry Frnka, who is ex-
pected to coach the ends, important
positions under Morrison's wide
open type of play. Frnka is a grad
uate of Austin (TexD College.
Josh Cody, who resigned as head
coach at Florida yesterday, is also
expected to be one of Morrison's
assistants. A Temple official said
Cody's appointment probably will be
announced formally within a few
days.
Last year Temple won only two
and lost seven games.

Lands only wants to be sure that

case I amt a-going to do nothing
like that. I like Aderholt. He may
make good some day. So may the
others, but they amt good enough
to me to try trick ways to hang on
to those fellows and keep some other
club from getting them"
The Old Fox, who wrote Lands
for particulars when the news
broke. doesn't want any of the three
some in camp this year.
None of them is ready" he ex-
planned. Here's all that would
happen: Lands might make me
