Learns About

LONDON.-One large group

Life mixed up with Red Indians.
"Ruggles of Red Gap" and Hol-
lywood movies picturing the ma
ton worried by TN over abun-
dance of gun molls and blazing
tommy guns.
Much of that is going to
change, no yever. if British
school teachers have their way
with "Know America" projects.
Already, at one L n d o n
school, 500 pupils have COM
pleted 100000 hours of study
about America.
The ll~cdmistress of this Peck
hame School in southeast Lon
don said it went even further
than that. The parents of all
the children got interested, too.
GETTYSBURG ADDRESS
"GOES BRITISH"
Each night in the homes of the
Jones, the Smith, the Roberts,
the small tradesmen who COM
pose this borough, you could
hear echoing around the kitchen
table Lincoln's Gettysburg adj
dress and the Battle Hymn Of
the American republic.
Even the family heads went
off to work each morning as
signed to collect information
about American civil air lines of
the raising of cattle in Texas.
Typical classroom projects
were albums. Freddie Groves,
age II, had the Stars and Stripes
and an eagle for the cover of his.
Inside were pictures of President
Roosevelt. Cordell Hull was
labaled the second most impor-
tant man in America. "He be-
lieves in Anglo American friend
ship" General Macarthur was
allotted the center-spread-No. 1
spot.
Doreen Cheeseman had a pic

also established correspondence
with other same-age pupils who
live in each of these 48 states.
To spread this "Know Amer

for
Facial Beauty
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Service staff Writer

Even the simplest personal
care routine will add to the
beauty of your skin in more
ways than one. For example, the
simplest step of all-cleansing-
does more than just cleaning il
the cream or soap is used cor
rectly. For proper usage gives
you a bit of massage in the bar
gain.
Smooth the cream on with up
ward and outward strokes, and
pat it in along the jawline be-
fore removing it. Do not "slath-
err" on as you probably did in the
lush days. Making it 60 further
also gets in more massage.
ALWAYS AVOID
HARSH SCRUBBING
When you wash your face with
mild soap and water, move the
washcloth or complexion brush
upward from chin to ears, up
ward from nose to temples, up
ward on forehead, and gently
around the eyes. Notice how
much better you skin feels after
ward. 1t won't feel that way af-
ter a skin-stretching up-and-
down or harsh scrubbing.
Tonic, night cream. even foun-
dation lotion and powder, should
be applied in the same gentle,
systematic, upward-moving way.
When you remove makeup,
hold piece of cleansing tissue in
each hand. Place hands on chin,
then move the tissues upward in
exactly the same routine-up to
chin, up from nose to temples,
up on forehead, around and
around eyes.
Never scrub your throat down.
Begin at the base and work up
ward and outward to the jaw
bone.
For the best results, protect
your hair with towel or home
made makeup banda plain
four-inch strip of muslin, long
enough to 60 around your head,
will do. Fasten it securely, tuck
ing every hair under it, then go
ahead with your cleansing, cream
treatment, or makeup job, with
out worry about your hairline.

Of 7 Women
Valuable Jewels
Reported Missing

EVANSTON, H., Oct 24-(P)
Police followed several ave-
nues of investigation today as
they intensific their search for
the slayers of Mrs. Lillian Gal
vim, wife of a wealthy radio
manufacturer, and her maid in
tie Calvin home Thursday night.
Capt. Daniel A. Gilbert of the
states attorneys office said au-
thorities had definite informa-
ton that jewels valued at $685.
227 were missing from the Gal
wins fashionable home, and in
line with this development, they
advanced several theories.
One was that the women had
been shot to death by men who
were members of gang of Jew
ell thieves. Another was that the
As year old Mrs. Calvin and the
30-year-old maid were slain by
a robber who became frightened
at their outcries and shot them in
panic.
Still another possibility was
advanced by authorities-that
members Of the Roger Touhy
gang who escaped from State
vile prison two weeks ago, had
been principals in the robbery
Staying.
Gilbert said the brutality of
the slayings had "all the ear
marks of a Banghart job Basil
(The OVID Banghart, notorious
gangster and Touhy lieutenant,
was one of the escaped cOnvicts.
Police learned that the jewels
were missing after the arrival
home yesterday of Mrs. Galvin's
husband, Paul V. Calvin, who
told police that eight articles of
jewelry were missing, including
a S17.500 diamond ring.
At the request CT investigators,
an inquest was continued until

In the growth of the modern

Armada 0yerwheIms
DRYDEN Team 1915

Coach John Holodnicks Ar
mazda High school squad wallop-
ed Dryden 1916 yesterday, with
left halfback Bill Van Norstrand
carrying the ball over for the
three touchdowns in the Little
Six League duel. The game also
saw some mighty fancy blocking
on the part of Jack Priestap, Ar
mazda fullback.
Armada scored once in the
first period and twice in the
fourth. Van Norstrand took over
the first when he ran back a
Dryden punt, swept the end for
the second, and climaxed a
march up the field to go over
on an off tackle slant for the
third score.
Armada goes to Almont in the
final game next Friday, and a
win will give the locals record
of three wins and two losses.
