I, OUR
NEIGHBORS
By SALLY MEREDITH

Hello, Greenbelt:
The Tessim Zorachs had their
baby christened last Saturday at
the Washington Cathedral. Act
ing as godparents were Dayton
Hull and Howard Custer, of
Greenbelt, and Miss Catherine
Lutz, of Washington. Peggy
Zorach's mother and father were
here for the week end in honor of
the event.-Back after a lengthy
trip to Florida are the Roy S.
Bradens. According to Mr.. Bra
den, the trip was wonderful, but
they are delighted to be back
Ernest and Josephine Hight, of
l8-E Crescent, spent last Sunday
at JOS mothers home at Mitchell
vile, Md.-We're glad to well
come Mrs. Kinzer back after her
long illness. She seems to have
completely recovered, and is look
ing grand.
The Hospital Auxiliary will
hold its regular Christmas meet
ing December II at 8 pm. 1t
will be held at the home of Mrs.
Ann Hull, ga Hillside.
The James T. Learys were back
over the week end. AS you know,
the Learys are former Greenbelt-
lers, having lived at ct Ridge
until the last of summer.
We are sorry to hear that Bill
Long is laid up with serious IN
juries, which resulted from an
automobile accident on November
%. He will be at the Post Hos
pital, Langley Field, Va, for
about one month, and probably in
bed for six months or so after
ward. Helen is planning to join
him on the 18th, as they plan to
make their home near Langley
Field when Bill is released from
the hospital. Tough shedding,
Bill. I know you'll be glad to
hear from your many friends
who'll write you as soon as they
know about it.-Robert Nicodemus
was bitten by a dog in Parkbelt,
Tuesday, while delivering papers.
The injury was serious enough to
warrant a doctors care.

Household Hint

Try using up. that old boctle of
rootbeer extract, (the kino you
make the drink with) in making
cakes, frostings, flavoring almost
anything. Lime jello and rootbeer
extract, plus sugar fuse your own
discretion), make a nice pleasant
dessert that you will surely like it.

TTLTRA-FEMININITY was stres-
~ sed in the Brigance designed
resort collection shown by Lord
and Taylor's this week. Against
the exotic background of Fefe'S
Monte Carlo mannequins wove in
and out of tables crowded with
fashion press, permitting a close
view of the intricate fashioning
and unusual fabric and color COM
binatiOns used. Brown-Or tor
toise tan as he calls it-played as
important q part in swim suits,
shorts and slacks as did senti.
mental pink and blue. Brigance
began q new motif trend with his
Vertes designed dove and lace
prints. Most unusual was the use
of upholstery satin stripes in
grey and yellow for q bra swim
suit. And as for whether mid
riffs will reign ON the beach this
winter and next summer, we
have a feeling that this designer
is making an attempt to taper of
on this style with his bare back
bathing suit and attached halter
which covers the midriff in front.
But no style is discarded abrupt
ly, and many of his best selling
models were the popular abbrevi-
ated bra and shorts type.
THE MOST BRILLIANT first
L night of the season, the open
ing of the Metropolitan Opera
with the performance of Mo-
zart's ''The Marriage of Figaro"
brought out one of the best
dressed audiences in years. Red,
purple and black were the favor
ite colors for the formals worn by
the creme de la creme. And as to
silhouette, there were infanta
gowns of slipper satin, many slim
lined and low wasted models,
some with front fullness and
others plastered with paillettes.

Death
By SEYMOUR LEVINE

By SEYMOUR LEVINE
Many noble heart you've stilled
On many fateful day,
And many hapless thing you've
killed;
No life is where you stay.
You wither flowers wet with dew,
And kill the birds that sing;
No living thing can answer you
When it has felt your sting.
The world is yours and always
was
The stage on which you played;
You've acted in the role you chose,
And countless lives have paid.
And yet you know you cannot win,
For life has left it's seed;
Whenever something new is born,
1t scorns your deadly creed.

 The very dry complexion may Do annoying, but It's not beyond rec pair. It can be coaxed back to nor. maj surprisingly fast with conscien- tlous care. So if your skin feels tight or inclined to draw after washing, if 1t looks parched, flaky, rough, or coarse, get yourself sup- ply of rich creams and get busy.
 For Q week or two, use cleansing cream instead of soap and water, and be sure your skin tonic iS nilld aS milk. Night cream, however, can and should Dc one of the richest variety possible preferably, one which b absorbed quickly.
 USE CLEANSING
 CREAM NIGHTLY
 Begin your nightly cleansing with cream, ahd Do sure to include the throat aS well as cheeks. Then pat on tonic and let it dry. And then smooth out Q generous layer Of emollient. Use upward and out- ward strokes, Enassaging the Omolli- ent Into the neck and throat, and over tho cheeks and across the fore- head.
 Pat brlskiy but not too smartly with the fngertips till the skin feels e jingle. You'll be surprised how much of the cream will disap- pear in this process-aSld the more, the better. Remove the excess only, allowing c film to remain on over- night.
 Naturally, your complexion won't become firm and fine with ono treatment. But if you repeat this routine every night for Q month, you should improve it notably. After that, you may return to soap and water cleansing, but even then it would be e good idea to sleep with cream on face and throat three times week.
 Use clockwise, rotary motions with the fingertipS. At eyes, press the fingertips, which you've dipped into the rich cream, firmly on the edge of the eyelids nearest your nose, and rub lightly around and around. Ver- teal lines above the bridge of the nose will yield to daily massage and batting.
