refinishing the craft-promising

picnics during the summer. This
way, everybody pitched in. The
old paint was taken off the boat
and replaced with a shining new
finish in jig time. Georges par

available for the slaving landlub-
bers. Now all George has to do is
make good on his promise. Nobody

Though American women have

to achieve the "doe-eyed" look.
women of the East have used it
effectively for centuries. all with
the aid Of kohl, a little known
product here in America.

replied.
The eyes Of the women Of the
Near East including areas such
as Syria, Asia, Saudi Arabia,
Egypt, Iraq, Iran. Palestine, Tur-
key. and Lebanon. are generally
their most beautiful feature. The
emphasizing of their large black
alrnond-shaped eyes with their
long, luxuriant lashes has been
done with kohl.
The way Of applying kohl has
varied very little from the way
the women Of ancient Greece
Egypt and early Jewish women
first used it to intensity the luster
Of their eyes.
The powder is a collyrium COM
posed of "liban" and aromatic
resin. 1t is a species Of franklin
cense, less expensive than some
but equally good for producing the
kohl. Kohl is also prepared from
the smoke black produced by
burning almond shells. Kohl

is ground up with other materials
and is used to dye the eyebrows
and eyelashes black and to en-
phasize the edges Of the eyelids.
1t is applied with small probe of
wood that tapers toward a blunt
end and which many women dip
into rosewater. then into the
powder. and draw along the edges
OF their eyelids. Blue and brown
kohl is used with many women,
combining two colors such as
brown and blue to achieve a color
more satisfactory to their own
personal coloring.

Not to be overlooked Is the fact
that many who use kohl invest 1t
with medical properties. Original

that it cures redneSs of the eyes,

Worlds Worst Advertisers

A better way to tell the American
story to the rest of the world is
something this columnist has been
harping on for five long years
probably to the boredom of a lot of
readers.
Propaganda, of course, is a word
used to cover a great many mean
ings, and to some people it means
angled news, deliberately twisted
to put across certain cause. But
the best propaganda is the truth.
And the most powerful weapon to
make people think you are doing
good is to do good.
But while we have been doing
great deal of good through the Mar
shall plan and in many other ways,
we have failed to tell the people the
truth about that good. Thus the
wheat we sent to France and Italy
went onto the normal channels of
trade, brought in revenue for those
governments, balanced their bud
gets, and kept them in power. But
the American people got little or
no credit.
By contrast, in 1947, when the
United States actually was supply
ing 80 per cent of the wheat used
by the French people, the Soviet
government landed one cargo of
wheat in Marseiles. The wheat was
carried in an American lend-lcase
ship, and the Russians required the
French to pay dollars, while our
wheat was given away. Yet, by
staging a parade through Marseil-
les, the Russians created the i'm
preston they were the only nation
coming to the rescue OF the hungry
people of France.
This was partly what inspired
the friendship train. Organized on
the west coast so that it could
cross the continent and be a gen.
uine contribution by the American
people, neWsreels of the trains prog
ress were sent to western Europe
in advance and shown in the motion
picture theaters there, to give the
people concrete evidence of how
Americans from every walk of life
were anxious to contribute to their
welfare.
Propaganda doesn't have to be
carried by radio or by the printed
word. The best and most wholesome
forms of propaganda are by person
al contact.
