SHOULD A DIABETIC DRIVE
 A CAR?

SHOULD A DIABETIC DRIVE
 A CAR?
 In this column recently we told of the case of the automobile driver who drove his car almost at walk ing pace between two lines of traffic, colliding with three of the vehicles of course squawked loudly about it but our hero backed off a bit and went grimly on. He still had de- signs on a standing truck; having collided with the truck the drunk or crazy" driver skidded to stand still at last.
 A policeman (not Irish, strange ly enough) approached the driver in that different way you may have noticed, and politely inquired wheth- CT the driver was playing tag or just nudging his neighbors to make them see the joke. But the driver seemed too dazed to understand what the policeman was saying. It developed that the cratic driver was diabetic. The police surgeon certified that the driver had been under the influence of insulin and unfit to drive a car. A physician recognized as an authority on dia- beteS testified that the patient would generally have ample warning of any excessive reaction to inSulin, but that the drivers condition at the time of the accident might have been due to the fact that improve ment was taking place more quickly than he and his doctor realized, so that dose of insulin which had hitherto been only just enough was now an overdose; in other words, the patients own insulin- -secreting function had become partly restor- ed.
 Recital of this case brought number of letters from readers. They are almost equally divided, some thanking me for warming the public about this traffic hazard; others deploring my unkindness to victims of diabetes who have to drive cars.
 One correspondent describes the wrecking of his car and serious in- jury of members of his family by collision with 8 young driver who ran into the parked car in broad daylight without apparent reason, admitted negligence in the presence of police officers and other bystan- ders, explaining that he had failed to eat lunch after a dose of insulin then slipping away and dodg- ing about the country for @ year since the accident trying to evade responsibility. The victim rightly asks why person in such condi- tion is given a drivers license, which permits him to jeopardize the safety of the public.
 Another correspondent wonders how many eXcellently fit or capable diabetics will be fired from their jobs as a result of my exaggeration of the trif1ng risk involved.
 Altho many diabetics suffer such hardship as a consequence of my teaching, I still maintain that person who has diabetes is unfit to drive railway engine, surface or subway engine or an automobile. and it is 8 gross betrayal of the welfare of the public to license such unfit drivers in any circum- stance.

Glouying Yourself
WE, THE WOMEN.
By Alicia Hart

 It's mistake for any woman to dismiss news about and directions for applying evening makeup by shrugging, But I wear formal clothes so seldom!"
 Evening makeup is for every wo- man-to wear after dark
 It doesn't matter whether you are in formal clothes or not. Artifi- cial light calls for special cosmetics, skilfully applied.
 Besides offering practical way to achieve little added glamor- regardless of whether you are in a decollete dance gown or softly tailored day dress-evening makeup can and will help to dramatize your best features and make less attrac- tive ones less conspicuous. LOTS OF TRICKS
 WITH LIGHT AND SHADE
 It's all a matter of light and shade.
 For instance, if nature endowed you with altogether too little chin, try using a lighter n-skin- tones foundation film on the short, reced- ing chin and see what happens. Or, if you want to emphasize the hol- lows in your cheeks, try using dark foundation in them and a lighter shade on the cheek bones above.
 Remember that light foundation highlights, and therefore makes any feature more prominent. A dark shade achieves just the opposite effect.
 For subtle evening makeup, it is necessary to have one shade of foundation film matches exactly your natural skin tones, one three shades darker and one a couple of shades lighter
 SKILL WILL COME
 WITH PRACTICE
 With these three, the woman who wants to conceal double chin and emphasize high cheek-bones would blend the matching foundation over face, throat and forehead. Then she would carefully blend bit of the darker shade across the double chin and a speck of the light shade on each cheekbone.
 Gentle batting on edges between different shades of foundation elim- mates blotches anl hard lines. Af- terward, she would apply rouge and powder in the regular manner, us ing powder which matches her skin.
 Such a makeup job takes time and practice, of course. But it can be very successful.

Q, What is a phobia?

Q. What is a phobia?
 A It is the Greek word for fear and is applied by psychologists and psychiatrists to an unreasonable fear or dread, morbid dislike or aversion to some object or situation. There are many forms which such a mental disorder may take and the Greek word for the objects or situ- ations feared is combined with phobia to designate them, as "astlo- phobia-fear of storms" Some pho bias are almost unconscious and in- voluntary, as a creepy feeling when snake suddenly appears in ones path, Psychologists say that this tendency is inherited from primi- tive man who was always in fear of wild beasts and snakes. A phobia may range all the way from a cas- ual dislike to a form of insanity.

PLANTS NEED THEIR vITAMINs

Science and chemistry have made modern gardening practically fool proof. For instance, Vitamin B1 has recently been stabilized in liquid form. A little of this liquid-actual- ly one drop in a pint of fresh water. is said to promote rapid growth, strength and vigor. The vitamized solution should be used only twice a week, and better results are obtain ed if the solution is mixed fresh each time the plants are watered with it. If the plants need extra wa terings, use plain water. Indoor gardeners finds this treatment par ticularly helpful.

Pictured above, Number 1, is a completely automatic coffee maker. One simply pours water in the low CT unit, coffee in the glass bowl, and connects the plug. The maker stirs, times, turns itself off; then it con- trols the current to keep coffee hot. The coffee's outlet is through the spigot. No. 2 shows an all-alumi- mum coffee maker. The filter is of that metal with stainless steel spring. No. 3 illustrates combined broiler, cooker and toaster designed to operate right at the table. Made of brass with nickel and chromium plated sections, the broiler has a Cheat electrical unit.

e. What is the origin of coloring Easter eggs?

A.. The custom appears to be very ancient. Evidence of it is found in early Jewish history, also in the early history of Persia, Italy and Spain, The original purpose in col bring the eggs was to initiate the new colors of the earth, induced by the coming of spring and the blos- soming of the flowers. When the custom was first taken over by the Christian church, the eggs were decorated principally in red, to de- note the blood of Christ.

BEWARE OF HIGH NECKLINES

"Necklines are important for mature women and the high, plain ones of this season may make you look dowdy. Best trick I know to counteract this is to nick a collar front and back, about an inch and half deep-a heart-shaped cut to give the effect of a simmer neck and face. The right necklace will do wonders, too-not long string of beads or a chain, but one of the new choker necklaces that has pendants or tasSelS.
 And know high heels are the most f1attering kind but you can't be charming your feet hurt. There is a height of heel that is graceful but not too high. Judge for your self from the shoe that has been the most satisfactory to you"

Mature Women Can Dress
 Just as Smartly as the 'CutieS'
SCREEN ANOTHER" IS GOOD EXAMPLE OF THE TYPE
By LUCIE NEVILLE
NEA Service Staff Correspondent


 HollyWood-A reader wrote to ask despairingly, Aren't there any wo men in Hollywood except cuties? No movie stars over 40 or mature actresses who dress well and will pose for fashion pictures.
 Well, sir-there'S Spring Ewing ton. She has two grown daughters and acts her age on the screen as mother of the Jones Family. With a practical mind under her frivolous Shetland pony bangs, Miss Ewing ton knows her figure problems and builds her costumes around them, not around her best points. SOME CLOTHES CAN'T BE BOUGHT READY MADE
 Some Women's figures deViate so much from any standard that cloth es can't be bought ready-made and dlJ6Ieu LOT lllelll. Mloo DSh iSVOli said.
 Its almost impossible to buy the most useful dress l oWn-a plain black one with not single bit of trimming or color on it. Princess Anna Eristoff has made me one of black Bagheera jersey. That's an all-year fabric, between wool and silk jersey in warmth, and easier for mature figures than the shiny silk jerseys. To this I add all sorts of neckwear.
 Ut has a high round neckline but doesn't smother me, and thick shirring on the upper sleeves gives shoulder width without shoulder padding-you have to have a young neck for that
 Heartening to women whose fig ures aren't young enough to wear every seasons styles, is Miss Ewing tons opinion: q don'tbelieve in the current vogue of trying to change your type every time new waist line comes in. Start from where and what you are, and make it better.
