SOda- Water Paste ReIieyes Burn Of Su1- -Sc0rched Skin
BY ALICIA HART

Some of the most panicky trips to the bathroom cabinet for relief for sun-scorched skins come when a girl thinks she has become in- mune to a burn.
 If you have to seek relief, the best remedy - because it's usually handiest - is paste made of wa ter and bicarbonate of soda. Or plain cooking soda, for that mat ter.
 Using this remedy is no fun, so don't invite it by staying out too long. The treatment involves plastering your smarting skin with the paste, and keeping the appli- cation wet, all of which is pretty messy. But, according to movie star Babe Hale, who claims she has saved her skin with this rem- edy, it works by stopping the &C., tion of the burn.
 Of course, laundry starch, used to soften your bath water, serves as dependable demulcent for burning skin. It leaves an invisi- ble film that stays on, if you'll gently tap yourself dry, and con- tlnues to Soothe skin and reduce irritation. There are also unguents that will calm down an angry skin.
 A serious burn, which causes you to run a temperatufet is some thing else again. That's a danger signal run up by the body which says that you've stayed out too long and exposed too great a body area

New York, Aug. - (UP) - If you want to be a secretary in the big towns, honey-like Manhattan or Boston-Rule 68 says don't get too friendly with the boss wife.
 You may say hello" or even goodbye, but make like clam if she comes any closer Get busy on the telephone, or crawl under your typeWriter-but don't do any loose talking.
 And don't come to work with hairy legs, or walking behind a per- fume wall that almost bumps the old man on the chin.
 Odor Leads Off
 Those are but two of the 1O1 pit falls which Dr. James F. Bender, di- rector of the National Institute for Human Relations, has compiled after consulting people who hire girls on reasons why they fire girls.
 No. on the list (Dr. Bender shudders to mention it) is body odor.

complexion. They also get sore at scratching the head as habit" and Rule 33 warns against Whistling while you work.
 Manhattan employers grow bitter when secretaries open personal mail by mistake" or ask for loan. They also turn thumbs down on ills who squint, or who send out for "snacks' several times day.
 Watch Those Legs
 Some bosses complain to Bender because their girls "let the office clock run down." while others ob- jected to shiny nose, or swing ing the crossed leg" as a habit.
 Rule "A cautions women workers against appearing "habitually wor- ried" while No. 75 warns against "untidy handkerchiefs."
 Bosses even complain because their secretaries diet On the other hand, they don't like it if a dress looks too tight.
 But there's not one single whisper as to what girl should do, If the boss invites her out to dinner or asks her to sit in his lap.
 Bender figures such items are purely personal problems-too hot to handle in anybody's booklet.

These include Charles H. Goren of Philadelphia, who during our recent trip to California brought out an interesting point of play in connection with today's hand.
 With the club opening declarer was immediately down to four trumps. Now how should the heart suit be played?
 Ordinarily, Goren pointed out, a small heart should be led toward the queen-jack to protect against four trumps in one hand. But in this case, another club would be returned and with four-one break in trumps, declarer would be automatically defeated. One of the opponents would have more trumpS than he had.
 Therefore, with only one chance to make the hand, the correct play was to lead the ace of hearts, hop ing to pick up the singleton king. That was actually what happened on this hand. Two more rounds of hearts were taken and Goren led diamonds until West took his high trump.
 We all find ourselves in con- tracts that look hopeless. The aver age player will play this type of hand in routine fashion and lose it, but the expert takes the one chance that may make it possible to win.

The things that are coming to light 1 aren't pleasant, and the May Carson case is probably just a be- ginning.
 But let's not forget three impor- tant facts. If we remember these, nothing the Senate committee brings to light will make cynics of us:
 The first is that in any venture which involves as many persons and as much money as did the war effort there is bound to be some crooked dealing. Patriotism isn't virtue equally shared by all = not even in a democracy. In the armed services we had our heroes and our deserters, and it is only to be ex- pected that the same was true on the home-front, in industry and in government.
 WEMOCRACY STILL LIVES | The second thing to remember is that the very fact that the pitiless eye of publicity is being turned on suspected wartime corruption and graft is proof that our democracy is still functioning in it's own sound, if slow way.
 Finally, we should remember that the fact that we are so upset over the findings of the Senate commit tee shows we aren't a nation of cynics who can shrug off such violations of our trust.
 So long as the little fellow hangs on to his faith in democracv and retains his power of indignation, we'll be able to take care of the big fellows who don't keep faith. But if the little fellow becomes cynic, we are lost.

In the doctor business there is a physical or chemical incompatibility say when a solution of iron is mixed with some vegetable astring- ent liquid-an inky substance pre- cipitates and alarms the patient, altho it is still as harmless as be- fore the two were mixed. Then there is therapeutic or physiological ompatibility-as in a combina- ton of medicines that counteract each other, as in that familiar old horse medicine, the ABS tablet or pill, used regularly or habitually by so many misguided folk. The com- bination of aloes or aloin with bel ladonna (atropine) in that physic would be ridiculous if it were not so injurious to the poor dupes who take it to prevent what they have been led to believe is "autointoxi- cation" The horse, medicine (aloes) irritates and congests the delicate bowel and other pelvic organs Gn- cidentally causing and constantly aggravating hemorrhoids and other rectal troubles as well as functional difficulties in Women) and tends to produce gripping (and the strychnine in the pill or tablet increases this effect); the belladonna tends to pre- vent gripping. Unfortunately the belladonna tends to prevent the natural digestive functions from proceeding, for three or four hours after the medicine is taken. But fa1 oi,, ha 0F Ln belladonna is over and past within four hours-but unfortunately just once more, it is only a few hours later that the horse medicine be- gins to gripe.
 So there you are, in the throes to give surcease. This is no time to remind you, I know, but it is my duty as health adviser to point out that gripping, however uncomfort- able, is the least significant effect of this horse medicine The de- rangement of the physiological functions of the digestive tract and the irritation and congestion of the rectal and pelvic organs by frequent Ol IldDlludl uOSlllS WlIIl dlOtS Oi aloin are the main reasons why any one with regard for his or her health will leave such medicine if it merits the name of medicine to the veterinarians.
 For that matter-I am not specialist" nor an authority" nor an authority" about anything Il can't see why any infant, child or adult should require or receive or take any kind of medicine to reg ulate" the bowel.
