Ed Roush. who was a great out
fielder for the Cincinnati Reds
and later for the Giants, defied
baseball tradition by ducking the
spring training camps every year
on the preteXt that he was hold
out. Then one spring he went
south with the Giants, labored
hard for weeks. and it ruined him.
He quit baseball after that.

rayon yarn viii be available to
manufactures of hosiery and
other civilian products. War plants
will be allotted more r4yon yarn
for use in tires, as "flaraehutes'
and cargo parachutes. A new
WPB order resulted in cut of
SIS per cent of the amount of
rayon yarn which formerly was
made available for civilian pur-
poses. Incidentally, it IS expected
that hosiery construction will be
simplified, and there may be a
further restriction on the use of

Looking Healthy
Saves You Time

The American beauty of 1913,
says one of Fifth Avenues most
eminent experts, will spend about
20 minutes daily on her beauty
care-and will set a standard that
compares all right with that of
the pre-war type who averaged an
hour and a half a day on her
beauty care.
There's a reason, this expert
goes on, why Miss 1943 will be
able to look as well with less time
spent on personal care-in fact,
several reasons.
That pre-war girl "strove for
pale, sophisticated look-of-
leisure the authority says, but
the wartime beauty "radiates
healthful beauty from within and
without"
She wears subtle makeup, a
short Golf, nails filed down to
working length and tinted with
natural polish, a tailored suit or
Stacks or uniform for work. The
pre-war girl Haunted wide, ma
terial-consuming skirts, painted
her over-long nails a deep red,
and thought a glowing complexion
was the result of a bangup make
up job.
In short, the new beauty doesn't
waste time on trivisls, and shows
il.
But. more important, the new
beauty has learned that a quick.
sensible routine of home-beauty
care is indispensable today. She
knows that nowhere is it so true
as in beauty care that a stitch in
time saves nine. She doesn't have
to go in for elaborate weekly re-
juvenation-her skin and hair are
KEPT in good condition.
She is not boycotting the beau
" parlor: she realizes that a
thorough and basic conditioning
treatment is just as essential as
brushing her hair, and really
brushing, at least twice a week.
She keeps her complexion clean,
gets a fair amount of exercise,
and has a healthful diet. She Is
healthy. and looks vital

Thoughtless
Smokers
BY EMILY POST

To the few Of Us who do not
smoke. life is one unpleasant en-
counter after another. This fact
is feelingly expressed in the fol-
lowing letter. What can one do
TO be rid OF smokers. even among
ones own friends in ones own
home. This morning I found a
cigarette had been put out against.
and left in, a lovely old silver
bowl that has been lacquered and
stands as an ornament on a living
room table. We have plenty Of
ssh-trays everywhere but We
can't have nothing but ash trays
! realize of course that the non
smokers are a waning race. But
please can no rule of courtesy be
impressed upon the smoking ma
Jority 10 make life more pleasant
for the helpless minority? Won't
you at least print something?
The only something can
think Of, in addition TO seeing that
an ash receiver is within easy
reach of each smoker. is to hold
an emergency receiver in your
own hand ready to thrust beneath
each threatening ash. Alas. how
ever. one watcher alone in a room
full of smokers might need the
five faces and ten hands of silva.
That this is not fantastic exag-
geration many owners of marred
possessions kow very well.
Turkey left Overs
Dear Mrs. Post: The family ate
half of a twelve pound. turkey on
Christmas. The next day we. for
the first time. invited new neigh
bors to supper. They came and
we had a pleasant evening. Or
so l thought. Later / heard that
the wife said her pride was hurt
because when we had finally in
vited them il was to share our left
overs. ! never dreamed for a min
ute that anyone could consider it
an insult to be asked to eat left
over turkey.
Answer: Unless the turkey was
unappetisingly presented-as a
half demolished carcass, can't
find anything hurtful to the pride
of any guest in the leftover pos
sibilities Of turkey either
creamed or curried. minced. or
made into croquettes or salad.
In fact, ! knew of nothing quite
80 delicious as left over" turkey
as base for delectable dishes.
An open House" for a new
Clergyman
Dear Mrs. Post: We've had
several new ministers in town
lately who soon after their ar
rival, gave open house" after
Moons to which all members of the
church were invited. Up to this
winter, we in these parts have
never heard of clergymen doing
this themselves. Always it has
been done for a new clergyman by
a church committee appointed for
the occasion. viii you please tell
me which is the generally accepted
way?
Answer: l think it more usual
that the reception be given for
the clergymen by the parishioners
of the church. The clergyman who
has long been resident but moves
into a new house usually gives
his own housewarming-but not
always even then.
