PELOUBET'S SELECT NOTES,
by Wilbur M. Smith, DID. Inter-
national Sunday School Lessons
For 1942. w. A. Wilde, Boston. So.
An "old reliable" commentary for
I teachers and their classes. A vol
ume of excellence. The present
author is a worthy successor in
this work. Himself scholar and
conservative in viewpoint, his 10y
atty to Gods Word will impress
those who read his comments.
There are many quotations from
great voices Of the church. Help
full are the teaching aims set forth
in each lesson. Suggestive for
discussion are questions at the end
of each chapter. The book is well
illustrated, and some pictures are
in color. Says DIR. Smith: Let us
open the Bible this year with new
conviction of the greatness, the
richness, the adequateness, the in
finity, the unfathomableness of ev-
cry page we shall be studying,
knowing that here indeed are the
very words of life, deeper than
life itself, richer than any one life
could ever be, made for the full
ness of our life, leading to Hira
who is the resurrection and the
life, and as our hearts, begin to
throb with the Joy that comes from
discovering new truths in this
great volume of inspired truth,
this joy will be communicated TO

There's lots of rainy days for trav-
elm with mud and ruts a-plenty,
but, Jonas, it's a good old road if
you travel it right. Ise glad amt

precautions to prevent prema-
turely laying" skin.
The treatment for this type oil
skin is really not complicated at all
and even very lazy woman could
hardly object to following this sim
pie procedure: In the morning,
cleanse your skin with a rich, con-
centrated cream, allowing it to re-
main on while you bathe and
dress, so that your skin can receive
the fabrication it needs. Then pat
a milky skin lotion into your skin
to finish your morning treatment.
In the evening, cleanse again
with your rich cream, to remove all
dust and CRIME and to take away
any parched, dry feeling. Combine
this cleansing with quick mas
sage, moving the cream over the
surface of your face with broad
upward and outward movements.
Remove cream with tissues and pat
on skin lotion. Then apply film of
special night cream to guard your
skin against dryness and fiakiness
while you sleep.
The dry skin is especially sensi-
tive to climatic extremes and
should be carefully guarded from
too much heat or too much cold.
Protect it in the winter from cold
winds by wearing a foundation film
beneath your makeup, and in the
with special sunproof
protectives.
Qf you have any questions regard
ing your own skin problems,
Madame Rubinstein will be glad |
to answer them personally if you
will address your inquiry to
Helena Rubinstein, in care of
this paper.)
