F astidious Women
Advocate New cream
Worlds Most Pampered Beauties Inspired Chemists
in Developing Cleansing Preparation

A new cleansing and night cream
g rapidly gaining favor with fasti-
dious women. It Is FL zambu cream,
soft, rich and fluffy. The worlds
most pampered beauties, the mag
nolia-skinned South American wo1n-
en-, inspired the chemists who de-
veloped this wonderfully soothing,
generating eInollient cream. 1t is
y pale ivory In color, and is made
with d base Of fine lRi1olln imported
trom South America. 81 zambu
promotes more thorough cleansing
han your skin has probably ever
Known, for 1t gently penetrates deep
into the pores and removes all
traces Of CRIME and makeup.
X It softens the skin, leaving II sup
pie and smooth. And by reason Of
its lubricating action, It discour-
ages q tendency to wrinkles In even
the dryest Of skins. :
In this blustery cold winter
weather, many dry and delicate
skins begin to show q tendency TO
chap. El Zambu cream Is perfect
enollient for such dryness and
chapping. It retards scaliness in
even the dryest skin.
Lanolin Is the basic ingredient Of
many medicinal salves and ONT
ments--highly priced for It's cling
Ing, soothing qualities. Lanolin from
the sheep-wool Of the rich pampas
Of South America Is the worlds
finest: and lends to Ell Zambu
cream o texture as light and fluffy
rs that Of whipped cream.
In preparation, this fine cream Is
blended with scientific precision and
thoroughness to insure eveianess OF
texture, and.to render 1t homogen-
Gus and non separating. This Is &C
complished by q new rotary whipper
somewhat like that used in the
home kitchen for whipping cream.
This special whipping motion ernul-
sites the pure ingredients Of the
cream and produces the smooth
texture, the fluffiness that Is so de-
Sirable In q skin cream.
Today women are busy as never
before; putting their shoulders to
the wheels Of industry, running
homes and caring for their families
as well. They are working In de-
tense industries where the skin Is
subject to all kinds Of temperatures,
atmospheric changes, dust and
what-not. When not working IN the
home or in defense plants, women
are spending extra hours in civilian
defense work, q great deal OF this
out -doors In all weathers. These
exacting activities and the under.
current Of strain in the tempo OF
today's emergency living conditions
call for intelligent skin care.
Dust and CRIME must be scrupu-
lousy removed from the face with
regularity and tforoughness. That
parChed, dry feeling brought about
BY indoor atmosphere and factory
working conditions must be coun.
teracted. EIarshness end scaliness OF
the skin, which may be attributable
to contact with chemicals, gases and
other elements encountered in In
dustry, call for careful eradication.

The telling and the translation Of
the tale by Vaz were recorded by
Richard Hakluyt, British geographer
and historian Of the sixteenth CEN
fury.
Vaz relates how the Viceroys and
Governors Of the New World sought
favor with the King Of Spain by
discovering new lands. An expedi-
ton sent forth by the Governor of
Peru sailed westward for 800 leagues
and found out between nine and
fifteen degrees Of southerly latitude
eleven great Islands being one with
another 80 leagues In compasse.
Found Grains Of Gold
1.-THE greatest Island that they dis
covered was according unto the first
finder called Guadalcanal."
They were not sure at first wheth-
er 1t was an island or a maine
land" but they made q landing and
found what In those times marked
the success Of all voyages-gold.
Vaz recounts, 1.-THE gold that they
found was upon this island or maine

small grains of gold hanged up in
the houses thereof.
"But because the Spaniards I'M
derstood not the language of the
country, and also for that the In
dams were very stout men, and
fought continually against them,
they could never learne from whence
that gold came, nor yet what store
was in the land
Called isles Of Solomon
The whole group of islands was
named the isles of Solomon, to the
end that the SpaniardS supposing
them to be those Isles from whence
Solomon fetched gold to adorne the
temple at Jerusalem, might be the
more desirousN TO goe and inhabite

But an Englishman, Sir Francis
Drake, cut short these hopes for
colonization by suddenly emerging
from the Straits of Magellan into

He S Inflated

Dick got his first initiation
into the navy in front Of the
Book Building.
A long line stood there. Just
before they were told 10 start
marching toward the Fort
Shelby. a navy man COM
manded:
Wakefield and Martin fall
out. You'll ride with me In the
station wagon"
II might be explained the
station wagon was filled with
some 200 or more articles of
luggage.
Big Dick and his other pal
rode along. Dick smoked big
cigar, seemed perfectly relaxed.
When the station wagon ar
rived in front of the Fort
Shelby. Wakefield and Martin
got out.
Thanks for the ride" Dick
said TO the naval man in
charge.
Thanks, nothing" he was
told. you two guys unload
this wagon"
We saw Wakefield two hours
later
81 knew then ! was In the
navy" said Dick smilingly.
But I'll get along"
And. indeed. he will We've

II hadn't thought much about
that" he answered. I'm
through with baseball for the
duration, except perhaps a. a
part OF the regular physical

one job right now--to he n good
navy man. That's full-time

You know, I've never held any

shaken.

Needed Assurance

Wakefield has been described
as a cocky youngster. He's
good and he knows il. II he
didn't have his full share of
self-assurance. he'd never have
overcome the tremendous handi-
cap of the. extravaGanf publicity
that preceded his entry into the
big time.
He was on the spot from the
very start. but that didn't
even slow him up. Instead, he
became one of the recruits of
any year. with a freshman bat
ting record that has rarely
been matched
He hadn't lost his confidence
when we talked 10 him yester-
day. but he was changed some
how. more solemn and deter
mined. He wasn't just
breezy, hkeable kid any more.
he was a man. ready 10 tackle
a real mans job.
The gravity OF this war Is
something very real and close
10 Wakefield. He has
younger brother. Bob. who is a
marine private somewhere in
the southwest Pacific area. He
has an older brother. Jack, who
has been in the army almost
three years and is now a second
Lieutenant on duty in California.
"I've always wanted 10 fly
and the navy offers the most
thorough training In the
world" Dick told ms. II know
I'm very lucky TO get this
chance and I'm certainly going
to give II everything I've got.
Those navy fliers are the
finest. MY only ambition right
now In to become one Of them"
