Il Is not quite ten years since Maxim Lltv1nor'
then Soviet Foreign Commissar, stood before the
League of Nations Assembly in Geneva and made
the first speech ever to be broadcast directly from
the floor of the League chambers. The subject OF
that speech was the heartbreak of small state in
Central Europe. "Czechoslovalda, said MIR. Lit
vnoff, "is suffering interference in its internal
affairs at the hands of neighboring state" The
independence of zone of the Oldest most cultured,
most hard working of European peoples" was in
danger II am sure, ladies and gentlemen, that the
sympathies, if not of all governments at any rate OF
ali peoples represented in this Assembly, 60 out to
the Czechoslovak people in this its terrible hour
of trial"
The wheel of fate has turned in ten years. Lit
vinof when last heard of, was in forced retirement
The "neighboring state" of which he spoke as then
threatening Czechoslovakia's independence has
been destroyed in titanic war. But new neigh
bor employing the same familiar pressures, has
taken the old neghbor's place. Once more the SYM
pathes of the peoples of the world go out to the
Czechoslovak people in this, its terrible hour OF
trial"
For such value as it may have for propaganda
purposes, the empty formaties of false demo-
cratic procedure apparently to be observed The
ill and weary Benes swears in the stacked Cabinet
which could only have evil results" Parliamen-
tary "approva is assured But, behind this facade,
the right of free speech ends, the opposition is dis
persed the hunt is for dissidents For the second
time in decade "one of the Oldest most cultured,
most hard working of European peoples" feels the
hob-nailed boots of the totaitarians

Potatoes Are Plentiful; Learn
To Cook Them Different Ways
By IDA BAILEY ALLEN

"WE have bumper crop of pota-
toes this year. l announced to the
Chef.
"That's good; the potato is the
most popular vegetable in the world;
it is the most versatile; and fortu-
nately easy to digest. But you know,
Madame, many people are eating
less potatoes because they think
they make them fat. Often l hear
people say, i am not eating bread
and l am not eating potato because
| am reducing"
Reducing Diet
"That's because the principle un-
derlying a reducing diet is to cut out
foods that cause fatty deposits in
the body" l explained. $50 the doc
tor invariably advises little or no
fat, no sugar or sweets, and great
ly restricted amount of cereals,
bread and potato, which are classed
as starchy foods. But a little starch
is needed each day to act as fuel in
the body to burn up the other food,
so it can be utilized. So if you a-e
trying'to reduce you can take your
choice; two slices Of bread a day or
two average-sized potatoes. They
have similar food and caloric values.
But fortunately most people-and
this includes young children and
adolescents--don't have to worry
about reducing. When cooked to
save full values, potatoes are an inn
portant source of vitamin c and
some B complex vitamins."
How about peeling the potatoes?
How much is wasted?"
PLENTY" l said. "In the first
place potatoes should not be peeled
except in rare cases as when fried
raw, or roasted in the pan with
meat. Instead they should be we'll
scrubbed and cooked in the jackets.
And when peeling them use potato
scraper or very sharp knife to pre-
vent waste"
Soggy Potatoes
"And many persons do not take
the trouble to prepare potatoes
properly" said the Chef. They
have soggy boiled potatoes, lumpy
mashed potatoes, burned baked pota-

Gore Of Your

Complexion

is that golden glow of summer
disappearing from your complex
ion? Let US hope that it is making a
slow departure, that it is not going
patchy. If it does, it is possible
that ones face may be slightly pie
bald, and that is no laughing mat
ter. You can help along this period
of transition if you have a few mo-
ments to spare for before-bedtime
freshening treatment.
The skin is in constant state of
decay and renewal; dead scales
fluff away, new ones are revealed.
By stimulating this natural process
you can be rid of your tan, if that
is your desire. After the nightly
face washing with bland soap and
a thorough rinsing, dip washcloth
in warm water, hold close to the
flesh. Repeat half dozen times.
Rinse with cold water to bring a
reaction of the blood streams, dry
gently, apply little cream. Follow
by applying good freshener lotion.
In the morning use cold water
and, after a gentle drying, apply n
lotion made by combining equal
parts of strained lemon juice and
peroxide. The peroxide should be
from a freshly opened bottle. A hint
to the girl who is a summer freckle
collector! Let the lotion dry on the
flesh.
An old fashioned beauty treat
ment consists of buttermilk laved
on the face with pledgets of cotton.
The acid in the butternilk has a
mild bleaching effect.
A face pack, used once week,
will not only whiten the skin, but
will have cleansing effect if the
pores are dust laden.
Take three tablespoonfuls of kao-
lin, mix with enough witch hazel to
form a pack the consistency of
whipped cream. Apply to a clean
skin surface. Pick up your mystery
story and read until the mask be-
gins to fake. Remove with warm
water, use little cream with light
friction,

plished by dipping a clean cloth in
glycerine and rubbing the wood un-
til as much is absorbed as possible.
Next, go over the surfaces with
linseed oil, and then remove the ex-
cess with a clean cloth. Finally, wax
and polish.
The result is a soft, mellow fin
ish, rich warm glow that is the
distinguishing feature of fine old
maple. 1t will be difficult to believe
that the piece came from the unfin-
ished furniture department.

have been changed"
DID not permit the vague un-
easiness which my fathers an
nouncement had given me to show
in my eyes or my voice. Instead, l
kissed him tenderly, and spoke
cheerily, albeit with the rueful note
in my voice which l knew he natu-
rally would expect from me at his
tidings.
THAT is bad news for all of us"
l told him, smiling. "But, only be-
cause we shall miss you. You have
planned everything so well, that
am sure we can go along without
you, and then you can check on us
when you get there"
Il don't think l shall have to do
any checking" he said, bit drily.
But l thank you for the adroit
compliment nevertheless. The only
angle which worries me is that of
Faith. l am afraid she is counting
on the drive out with me, and l did
not have the moral courage to en-
tighten her. AS usual, l passed the

fingers against his lips. "I'll attend

Il know you WILL" he said. "But,
will it make it any easier if you tell
her that l am going to bring her one
of my very special granddad sur
prises ?"
l shook my head at him reprov-
ingly.
Il am afraid you are a crooked
politician at heart" l told him,
with your shameless bribery. But
of course I'll tell her, and while she
really would rather have you than
any surprise, am sure the promise
will go far to console her. But,
warn you! Sometime I'm going to
talk to you seriously about your Law
ishness in the way of grandfatherly
surprises"

"And fat lot Of good that will
do you," my husband said, edging
nearer to US, and putting an afiec-
tionate hand on my fathers shoul-

at me.
