Many Juneau mothers of high school students may have noticed an unaccustomed lack of appetites on the part of their offspring this noon, and here is the explanation.
 In order to swell the depleted funds in the treasury of the Girls Club, an auction was held this morning around II o'clock, of cakes baked by the girls, or possibly by their mothers Spirited bidding fol- lowed the salesmanship of Auc- tioneer Colleen Hellan and soft drinks were sold also Superinten- dent A. B. Phillips auctioned off the first cake to Lois Allen for five cents, it being a beautifully decor ated birthday cake complete with candles.
 Jerry Moore and James Klein, dressed as internes And carrying a stretcher and equipped with castor oil, appeared from time to time to carry anyone away who looked as though he needed their attention.
 Following the auction, the stu dents held an impromptu dance in the gym to the strains of the pho- nograph, which was presided over by Bill Harris.

Distinguish
Between Love
And DaIliance.
BY HELEN ROWLAND

N MANY A soldier or sailor is
bothered by the question Of
which of two girls he loves, and
would like 10 marry, before he
leaves.
How happy he'd be with
either dear c harmer, were
t'other dear charmer away" as
the poet put IL, long long ago.
In fact, nearly every man has,
at some time, imagined himself
in love with two girls at the
same time.
But THIS is as impossible as
facing east and west at the
same moment. The truth is that
he IS not IN love with either of
them, yet. He merely thinks
them both adorable-and that is
not love. To love a woman, il is
not enough 10 think her adora-
BILE; you must find her INDIS-
PENSABLEi
Never marry if you can pos
sibly help it," If you can't help
ii, you'll know it's love.
A WELL-KNOWN psycholo-
giSt has said that no man can be
wholly in love with two women
al a time He can only be half
in love with one girl and 80 per
cent with the other.
But how can even a pSycholo-
gist be sure that man can
divide his heart up so exactly
just as the ice-cubes are divided
in a refrigerator, or measured
out scientifically like the ingre-
dents IN a cocktail?
WHY COULDN'T a man be
90 per cent in love with one girl
and just / per cent dazzled or
hypnotIzcd by some brcath-tak-
ing glamour girl or some little
cutie he sees around the office,
every day?--Lots of men are.
HIS problem IS 70 discover
(which is love- ard which is
merely a temporary infa,uation
or flattered vanity He would
find out very quickly II he were
separated from both women for
a few weeks

Short CurIs
Need Expert
Shaping
BY DONNA GRACE

THE NEW halo hair style
is. as the name implies, o.
frame of curls around the
head while the crown IS left
plain and fitted 10 the head.
Another new line in the halo
is its smoothness next 10 the
face.
Instead Of the curls framing
the face. the hair is set fiat at
the sides with the curls begin
ming about two inches back
from the hairline. The hair
should be short for the best
effects Of this frame of curls
but the length should be deter
mined by the quality Of the
hair.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1943-10-12
Determines Length

Stiff, coarse hair has much
more body and thickness than
thin hair and can be short. II
takes more Of the soft. fine
type TO make a good curl, so,
there will be less hair cut off.
This halo style requires a
good permanent unless the hair
is naturally curly. The naturally
curly hair Will need expert
cutting and should be set by
an expert from time 10 time.
When we'll shaped and curled,
one can easily arrange the curls
in the correct line.
The curls should be set so
that daily brushing will not dis
arrange them. All short hair
needs daily brushing to keep the
ends in place and the hair
smooth.
