George suggested that all married
taxpayers should be given the privi-
lege of dividing family income and
filing separate returns on each half,
which those of the eight community
property states have.
The treasury would lose money
under such a plan, but George said
it could be made up by increasing
surtax rates-which begin at five
per cent in the house bill-to a
point nearer the II per cent recon-

Soap and Water First Step
In BIemish Treatment
By DONNA GRACE

ALL YOUTHFUL skins are
beautiful except the few who
may have biemish and black
head trouble. The blemish, of
course, covers all skin eruptions
but the worst form is in pimples
and acne eruptions. These are
indeed beauty handicaps and
should be banished Immediately.
The best way is prevention.
and the skin that has daily
cleansing with plenty of soap
and water is usually in good con-
dition. The oily type skin may
be annoying at times, especially
during the adolescent age. Even
fastidious girls and boys may
have pimples or blackheads so
the treatment TO remove them
and keep the surface thoroughly
clean is what they should know.
The Remedy
Blemished skins have been the
direct cause of developing an
inferiority complex in sensitive
young persons. They are con-
scious of their unattractiveness
and other children are not only
critical of their defects but
avoid them as associates. This
is real heartache for many and
the young should have sympathy
and immediate help.
One of the first steps in cor
recting blemishes is TO avoid
touching the fingers to the face.
Fingertips and nails are seldom
antiseptically clean and when
brought in contact with sensitive
skin may aggravate the infec-
ton.
You know. modern skin spe-
cialists tell US nearly all blem-
ishes are due TO surface infec-
ton, and not. as the old-timers
thought. TO impure blood We
know improper diet may disturb
the digestion and cause occa-
sional blemishes but the best
authorities apply the remedy to
the surface of the skin with sat
isfactory results.
Home Treatment
Acne blemishes are stubborn
old things and may require
longer treatment but the aver
age case of skin blemishes re-
spends TO simple home remedies.
Those affected should not feel
they are different from others
and go off to moon over their
misfortune. but forget these un-
slightly spots and go to work at
once to do what is necessary.
We have a good home treat
ment used successfully by thou
sands throughout the country.
II is so simple one can prepare
il in few moments at home
and the results are amazing.

THERE ARE so many food

that you need more of this ele-

Or they may tell you that you
are not eating foods in the right
combinations-that that's the
whole trouble with your weight.
Or you may be assured with
earnest fervor that you need a
dash of magnesium to bring out
your magnetic personality.
Obscure Mineral
Usually the stress is given TO
some obscure mineral. One you
don't hear much about. And IL
seems almost logical to believe
that the lack of some such ele-
ment in your diet-rather than
just too much foods making
you fat,
If any mineral is lacking, it is
very apt TO be calcium, phos-
phorus or iron. These are rarely
stressed by the faddists. There's
no mystery in them. But they
are, nevertheless, the ones that
are important. And if you get
enough of these minerals, you
get all the others-they are
present in the same food sources.
Low Calories
No food combination is going
to make you slim unless it is
low enough in calorieS. There
is no combination of foods that
has any e h mic reaction
against fat. The thing to be
sure of is that the foods COM
prising your menus supply all

ELWO0DS' PARROT.
WeH-Known To Visitors
'CREENBACK,' DEAD

"Greenback", known to most
Key WeSters for IA years as the
pet parrot of Mr.. and Mrs. Ray
Elwood, 500 AShe street, is dead.
The parrot, whose wide ac-
quaintance among Key West resi-
dents was described in The Citi-
zen about three years ago, died
Friday night at about 800
O'Clock. Mrs. Elwood found the
pets body lying stiff on the floor
of its cage when she returned
from revival meeting.
Constable Elwood attempted
to have the bird mounted, but
was unable to find anyone who
could do the job. The body has
been encased in cement by
Charles Richardson, Son-in-law of
Mr.. and Mrs ElWood, and on the
top of the block, he inscribed:
Blessings on thee. noble
bird;
The Master called and you
have heard.
ElWood purchased the bird
from Dr. Armando Cobo when it
was six months old. At that
time ''Greenback" had picked up
two words of Spanish, which he
repeated occasionally, but since
then all his conversation had been
in English.
"Greenback" wandered away
from home about five years ago,
but an ad in The Citizen brought
him back three days later. He
disappeared" on a number of
occasions but always came back
himself or was found soon after
leaving his cage.
He was fond of women and
would call Bye Polly" after
them as long as they were within
hearing. He would sit for hours
in the branches of a hibiscus tree
on the ElWood sidewalk and keep
up running conversation with
passersby.
'Greenback" disliked small
children of both sexes and look
ed on men with no particular
favor. After a girl had reached
the age of about IL he was will
ing to offer his friendship and
enjoyed riding on the handlebars
of girls bicycles.
