Hair Growth on Women's
Legs Spoil Their Looks

A heavy or dark growth Of hair on
the legs spells their looks. no mat
ter how shapely. It doesn't look
pretty even under stockings. Most
women consider it a part Of good
grooming to remove msightly hairs
regularly, especially during the
summer when legs are exposed.
Women who use a razor for this
purpose might take a lesson from
the men in the conservation Of the
precious steel blades. It is in keep
ing with the times that razor blades
be well cared for. Always wash the
legs with a cloth wrung out in soapy
warm water before using the razor,
as this softens the hair and makes
it less resistant to the blade. Then,
be sure to wash and dry the blade
thoroughly after each use. To keep
it from rusting, wrap it back in its
little paper cover. People who live
near the seashore should be particu-
larly careful about this, because salt
air tends to corrode the steel and
this, of course, makes it nusable.
A good soap and water scrub will
remove the dry skin particles that
sometimes give a rough or dan
druffy surface, and extra scrubbing
of the heels will help prevent the
formation Of callouses where the
shoe comes in contact with the skin.
For extra glamour, spread on some
fesh-colored hand lotion or suntan
lotion, depending upon whether
stockings or socks are to be worn.

Of our insurance companies in
coping so we'll with the current
problems caused by the conditions
which we are undergoing which try
mems minds as well as their souls.
1t is noteworthy to observe that
during the 81 years existence of
the NATIONAL NEGRO INSUR-
ANCE ASSOCIATION no member
company thereof has ever failed.
1t is doubtful that this can be
said of the membership of any
other business association of any
group. The statement, "a member
company of the National Negro In
surance Association" has the same
significance to the insuring public
as Approved by Good Housekeep-
ing" does to the consumer public.
For the first six months of this
year, IS of the reporting COM
panies showed an increase in insur-
ance in force of $60,63S,S47 over
the corresponding period last year.
Twenty-four showed an increase in
income of $1,4S3, 254.1S. The num-
Der of employees increased by S62.
The general health conditions
and the mortality rate of the poll
cyholders showed improvement.
Even with over sixty million dol
lars more insurance in force for
the first six months of this year,
the amount of sick claims paid
showed a decrease of $16,637.24;
the amount Of death claims, a de-
crease of $5,56s.7O.
These Negro owned, manned and
managed insurance companies are

My New 1913 Astroloey Readings Are Ready

D. NJ. W.: am II years old and
I am going with boy 10. For the
past 10 months / have been living
with him as a common-law wife
because his mother won't consent
for US to marry. Must 1 change my
way of living and go back home or
stay and see if his mother will give
her consent?
Ans: This boy can wrap his
mother around his little finger
and if he had been very anxious to
marry you, he could have persuad-
ed her during these 10 months. As
long as he can live with you with
out marriage, he isn't going to tie
himself down. You are the loser
not he. As soon as his fancy
for you passes, he can walk out of
the affair and his many friends will
congratulate him for getting out of
the situation so easily. While you
have thrown away your good name
and own self-respect and can
never live it down among your fam
lily and friends. Yes, you should
leave him. But it won't ever be the
same at home again The thing for
you to do is to go to some other
city and get a job and make a
fresh start. You have seen that
there is nothing for you to gain by
this free love" set-up. So don't
let yourself be talked into it again.
]. R.: A few months ago 1 signed
to join the WAACS. Since didn't
hear from them right away, l took
it for granted that l wasn't accept
ed. Since then, a friend has been
very nice to me to take me in her
home and give me a job in her
beauty shop. appreciated this
very much as things were going
bad for me at home. But several
days ago, l was ordered to report
and take a physical exam and an
intelligence test. l am worried, as
l hate for this lady to find out as l
have never mentioned anything
about this to her. 1 want very much
to get into this Service, and am also
afraid that I won't pass the intel
igence test.
Ans: When Uncle Sam calls you
to report for service . what any
one else thinks about it doesn't
matter a great deal for you
have to go. I do think that you
should explain things to this lady
in a nice way and show her that
you are not unappreciative of her
kindness. A nice gift would be most
appropriate. AS for passing the in
telligence test you can buy a
book from the book store that will
give you a general idea as to what

Special Wrapping for
Bread, Cake, Butter

More than 100000 pounds Of
butter will be wrapped in specially
impregnated parchment paper dur
ing the current year to protect It
from losses due to mold.
Great quantities of butter are ex-
pected to be saved from spoilage as
a result. thus helping to conserve
stocks.
Mold rarely can be recognized in
butter except by an off" taste,
according to food experts. Its growth
can be retarded even in warm
weather, however, by wrapping the
butter in paper treated with a mold
inhibitor. The baking industry also
is attacking the mold problem in
baked goods by Incorporating mold
retardents in increasing quantities
Of bread, pies, and cakes.

billion loaves of bread will be pro-

type of test will be given. This will
apply to any branch of service.
Your high school education may not
be adequate enough to permit you
to become a commissioned officer
but everyone can't be officers.
NJ. E.: l am in love with a boy
and he says he loves me but he
won't do right. He wants me to
marry him. He drinks quite a bit
and usually on pay nights won't
even show up. Then when 1 do see
him he is broke. I think he would
be poor husband. Should marry
him?
Ans: No. A leopard won't
change his spots D.. nor would mar
riage make a change in this boys
ways. The only difference is this
if you were married to him, it would
be your bread and butter money he
was squandering. AS it is, he
doesn't seem to think enough of you
to want to spend his money to en-
terrain you. He prefers to throw it
away on his other friends. While
YOU are doing good if you get a
cOca-eOla out of him. Surely you
wouldn't risk your future welfare
with someone so ineOnsiderate of
you.
J. L.: My husband and l have
been married 4 years. We quarrel
all of the time. He used to be real
good about bringing home his en-
tire pay check and let me manage
it like l want to. Just because I
bought few expensive clothes and
things for the house he got mad
about it and now he does all the
managing. This causes a big row
every pay day. Tell me what to do.
I love my husband and hate to
leave him. But it seems that we are
growing farther apart.
Ans: You are going to continue
to grow farther apart until your
marriage is nothing but a knock
down drag-Out if you don't stop
nagging your husband about money.
He started your marriage on a
partnership basis and let you
manage the money. You knew that
his salary wasn't large and in.
stead of spending it cOnservatively
you threw it to the winds. He
doesn't resent your having pretty

Hello, Folks:
Well, this week l guess most
everyone has had enough outside
recreatiOnal interests, what with
private Halloween parties having
been held and big name bands
having appeared at local halls and
theaters. :. More folks turned out
to the Duke Ellington dance held
at the st. Paul Auditorium last
Saturday mite. 1t was surprising
to see how many local lads we
have still floating about, as yet, un-
touched by the draft. Saw
LOUIS BROWN, who was busy as
could be dividing his dances
around. SONNY" BELL was
really enjoying himself, wasn't he?
ROBERT JONES was still Civ
ing what st. Paul lass the grand

NEY looking, as always, ever-styl-
ish. CHARLEY hurley was
round and about greeting his
many friends. That young
mother, DAISY MeADAMS, was
still looking as cute as ever. q.
JEANETTE DORSEY was deep
ly engrossed in the many fine
pieces played by the orchestra q.
GERALDINE and EDDIE WITH
ERS were looking as devoted as
ever. "DIZZIE LIZZIE" the
dame who spends all her time
chasing other wOmen's husbands,
was there as active as ever. .
That charming couple, BURIE and
LOUISE CARMICHAEL, were
having their usual good time. .
Saw VICTOR GALLOWAY and
EARLINE STOKES, who were
really enjoying the Dukes sOphisti-
Gated rhythms. The dashing
CECIL TAYLOR, JR, was quite
the man of the evening, what with
