 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
Written for NEA Service

You think women dress to please men. Well, if you are right, then why is it that some women:
 Wear flat-heeled shoes, tailored shirts and plain felt hats with man. nish suits? (Men invariably hate such severe get-ups.)
 Buy completely wild, completely crazy hats? Anything that makes the average male feel conspicuous usually infuriateS him. (Being seen with a woman in an attention-get- ting hat generally makes him feel conspicuous)
 Who Likes Red Claws?
 Use scarlet nail polish? (Can you name more than one you ever heard say he liked it?)
 Keep right on wearing girdles? Gust remember how many times your husband has said that you look better without one.)
 Wear perfume only for dress-up occasions and then wear too much of it? (Men like perfume-but a little goes long way)
 Are careless about tobacco stains on fingertips? eff you hold the cig- arette up instead of down your fin gers won't get stainedD
 Tolerate clipped and cracked nail polish?
 Prefer ultra-chic clothes to pretty ones?
 Choose heels so'high and slender that a graceful walk is quite out of the question?
 Wear sports hats that won't stay on in a high wind? Some Camouflage Their Figures
 Cling to boxy jackets and other clothes that hide the natural lines of the figure? (The only figure a man thinks should be hidden behind lose folds of material is the bad figure.)
 Wear black continually?
 Reshape their mouths-With hp- stick quarter of an inch thick?
 Do you STILL think women Gress to please men?

 o. Please give me some hints on roasting turkey.
 A. Young turkeys should be roasted in an uncovered pan, so that the steam will not draw the juices, and do not add water while cooking. For even cooking, turn the turkey from side to side, and have the breast up about one-third ot the time.
 O. How long has the birth rate in the United States been declining!
 A. About twenty years.
 @. Please give me a recipe toi Hungarian goulash.
 A. Use the following ingredients: 2 pounds lean beef, 11s quarts meal stock, 6 diced potatoes, l cup toma- to puree, 3 tablespoons butter, tablespoons flour, tablespoon pap rika. Cut meat into one-inch cubes and brown in fat: add meat stock and simmer over Q low fire Tor 2Hs

 And, there's the woman whose well-meaning husband gives her something to wear that isn't in line with her own idea of chic. She can save his feelings+and he1 own-by wearing it when just the two of them go to movie-or for a Sunday afternoon ride.
 THIS FELLOW

 Then there's the problem of knowing what to say when you get a present and don't know what it is one of those gadgets that looks like it might do anything, or noth- ing. A man told me the other day about a wary male who had solved the problem of what to say when proud parents had him tiptoe into the nursery to see bundle from heaven. He always takes a look, beams at the parents and says, Now THERE'S a baby" And, of course, he's right.
 Why not borrow his inspired ob- servation when you unite the pres ent that looks like nothing you've ever seen before, and say with en- thusiasm: Nov, THERE'S pres ent!"

SINUS TROUBLE

SINUS TROUBLE
 Air spaces in the bones Of the face, called sinuses, are lined with mucous membrane and communicate through small opening with the rear of the nasal passages. Con- gestion, swelling, inflammation or infection of the mucous membrane or lining of the rear portion of the nasal passages may close or nearly close the opening into a sinus, or the inflammation or infection may spread into the lining of the sinus, and that is sinusitis.
 One pair of sinuses between and behind thee yes are called ethmoid sinuses; another pair behind the brows are the frontal sinuses; a pair in the upper jaw bone behind the cheeks are called maxiliary si- nuses or antra of Highmore. A pair of Sphenoidal sinSes or rather a group of cells in the bone still deeper behind the nose are less frequently a source of trouble.
 Inflammation or infection of a maxillary sinus often occurs from extension from the root of an up- per back tooth roots of these teeth sometimes protrude through the floor of the sinus. 1.
 Allergy may be responsible for moderate sinus trouble, just as coryza, machine gun sneezing, hy- peresthetic rhinitis or annoying watering at the nose and tempera- mental stuffiness or congestion in one or the other nostril may be purely an allergic reaction. Aw, let's not talk about allergy now if you are curious about it, send stamped envelope bearing your ad- dress and ask for Relief for AL lergy".
 m my opinion a factor which contributes to the development of sinus trouble in many instances is calcium shortage.
 A leaflet distributed to the pulp lie by the Surgeon General, U. s. Publis Health Service, Washington, D. o., under the comprehensive title Sinus Infection: Cause, Smyp- toms, Treatment and Prevention covers the question Of Symptoms gingerly enough:
 A head cold that fingers on or re- peated attacks of head colds may be the only warning that sinus di- sease is present. The usual symp- toms are nasal obstruction and 8 discharge of mucous or pus depend ing upon the severity of the infec- ton. The discharge may be slight, and evident only as post-nasal dripping, or it may be very pro- fuse. Dull headache or pain is pres ent over the affected sinus. In the acute stage, when the natural drainage of the sinus is interfered with, headache is more severe.
 Then under the heading of Diag- nosis the Surgeon General devoses two and half lines to advising that a physician competent in the treatment of diseases of the nose should be consulted for diagnosis and that the x-ray is of conside- able assistance.
 We'll, that's enough to play along with for the present. Later we shall discuss the more common manifestations of sinusitis and give some practical information and suggestions concerning prevention

A SLIM, TAILORED AFTERNOON STYLE
PATTERN 275

You're young as you feel and lookr" says this becoming frock by Claire Tilden. For Pattern PTS has been knowingly designed for youthful matrons with accent on slimming lines and details rather than on frills and furbelows. Those double front panels that go from shoulder at hem seem to steal inches from your girLh and add inches to your height. A row of tiny buttons sewn down the center seam nicely breaks up' your width-across. Buckle your belt smartly in front or start it from the sides of the panels and tie it neatly in back. You may choose between long or short sleeveS-both are in straight, simple style. The softness of the side bodice sections is nicely darted- in at the shoulders and gathered in- to the waist-seams. Don't you love the youthful, carefree look of the optional collar-and- d-bow trim? The collar may be in contrast, if you like, or you might omit 1t entirely, leaving just a simple V-neckline. A graceful fruit, leaf or flower print would be an attractive fabric se- lection-or you might try soft, dark material. Use the Sew Chart for reference.
 Pattern 275 is cut ill womens sizes 34, 36, 38, 40, A, A, 46 and 48. Size 36 requires yards 39 inch fabric.
 Send FIFTEEN CENTS (15c) in coin for this pattern. WRITE CLEARLY SIZE, NAME, ADDRESS AND STYLE NUMBER.

 Christmas dinner should be con- genial, intimate and not too mas sive. Whereas Thanksgiving din- ner is the great ceremony of har- vest, Christmas dinner is just part of the great Christian holiday. Food must, of course, be special and plentiful, but eating is only pal of the days festivities.
 Since Christmas dinner is not complete without children at the table, the menu should be adjusted partly to young digestive systems and youthful favorites.
 For the small family, a large roasting chicken or capon is a good choice. So is large duck, If goose, the traditional Christmas bird, is chosen, remember that goose is rich and therefore do not serve too many other rich dishes with it.. Roast beef, tender, red in the center and nicely Drowned on the outside, is another favorite and it takes little watching in the cook ing. The Christmas menu should
