mysteries of marriage, for even the
|dumbest know that the daily spat
is bound to end in disaster and that
none who engage in 1t come out un-

Time and again they have wit
messed the tragedy of a marriage
that should have been happy and
successful wrecked by the quarrels
lof a husband and wife. They have
seen them kill love. They have seen
them break UP homes and orphan
little children. They have, seen them
turn into bitter, disappointed and
|disgruntled people, fighting over
trifles about which neither one real
ly cared.
And it isn't because they are too
ignorant to know what they are
doing. They know that no affection
can stand the wear and tear of
perpetual friction, and that those
who fight together continually end
up by becoming enemies. They
know that a word can stab as deep
as sword and leave wound that
will never heal. They know that
a house that is place of strife in
stead Of peace is mockery Of a
home, and that the unfortunate
children Of wrangling parents are
nearly always ill-adjusted to life
and foredoomed to nervous break
downs. They have had their doctors
tell them over and over again that

peace and harmony.

The new coiffures sweeping your
hair back of your brow and strip
ping your face Of any reassuring
tendrils demand beauty in the faces
they bare. Step No. ! is to get YOUR
self skin you're proud of, one you're
willing to expose to the scrutinizing
eyes Of your "best friend" If there's
any magic formula to achieving
same, the closest we've ever come to
1t Is in the isyllables, "scrub-a-dub-
dub" for there will never be any
substitute for the soap and water
approach to beauty. One Of the
loveliest compilations we've ever seen
belongs to young woman about
to become a grandmother; she's
young because she looks it! Asked
her secret, she admitted that every
morning she scrubbed her face-yes,
scrubbed with brush!-then

for use in technicolor and then mod
ified for everyday use-so the stars
wouldn't 60 around shatterfng illu-
sions, I guess, after they removed
the stuff. For all of that, you don't
have to be a makeup artist to
apply it. All you do Is shake the
little bottle so that all the glam-
orizing oils get in solution, turning
it upside down In the process
before you remove the cap, OF
course. The generous drop that re-
mains in the cap when you take 1t
of Is sufficient to give you one
makeup, although If your nose has
q tendency to shine, it's good idea
to see that it is well covered with
the foundation. With the drop on
your finger, all you do Is dot it on
a dot on each cheek, your forehead
and chin and blend all to satiny
finish. One Of the six shades Is
sure to give you just the glow you
need-and the lanoline and oil base
Is fine winter-def1er to boot.
To dust over this foundation, try
the special face powder created to
go over 1t. Designed expressly for
use with tinted foundations only, 1t
comes in one shade that goes with
everything. So natural you can
barely see it, so light you cen hard
ly feel 1t, it's nonchromatic (noncol-
ored to you and meD sheerness en-
ables your foundation tinted skin
to glow through. In other words, the
CLOVIS beneath and the light powder
supplies the desired mat finish. Be
sure to fluff of the excess after
powdering, leaving just enough for
q lovely satin-smooth skin.
For most people mascara is a bit
risky for daytime use, especially
since the early-morning hours offer
no time for the painstaking care
mascara requires. And daylight is
so cruel, too, on makeup mistakes.
A good compromise Is a dark eye
lash pomade. After you're all set
with your makeup, apply this to
your lashes to remove every last
vestige of powder. You'll find it's
plenty glint-giving for the ayern.
Best Of all If you should make mis-
take, you won't be stdng to tears.
If we ever doubted it before, we
know now definitely that a good
lipstick would be our No. choice for

goes with all but fuchsia dresses

teeth look glistening white. What

SAVE BED SHEETS.

I read the Clearing House regu-

suggestion than the one I submit
below.
Save bed sheets:
These days it's hard to get good
bed linen, and I'd like to suggest q
way to save your sheets, When you
change sheets on your bed each
week, remove the bottom sheet (to
be laundereO. Then reverse the top
sheet and use 1t on the bottom.
Tuck the wide hem under the mat
tress so the wear will be in q differ
ent place than when on top. II
you are in the habit of pulling the
sheet up around your neck or wiggle
your feet, this will ease the strain,
and your sheets will last longer.

or a s4-pound steak, or " to "a
pound ground beef, etc.
If you have roast beef Sunday,
then Monday night you make the
gravy first, slice your meat thin, add
to the gravy. Now you have hot
roast beef.
They only sell small chickens, so,
there you are. Two can eat anything
any one else eats with little
planning.

the promise for fulfillment OF
those obligations" the introduce

Private enterprise has already
demonstrated the possibilities in

record of the corporation speaks
for itself. The various projects
point the way to expansion into
a diversified, balanced, agro-in-

high grade foods, beverages, feeds
