THINGS THAT INTEREST WOMEN
BY BESSIE r. BELL
HOW 20 you LooK7

Now this matter Of looking
ones best, being beautiful at all
times depends so much on little
things-many things, and every
one important.
Your personal grooming, the
way you dress, your manner in
general, the way you talk, your
posture--the way you walk, the
condition Of your complexion and
the height Of your popularity, are
all important.
To be popular is to be liked by
people, and to accomplish this,
you must learn to like other
people.
Be genuine in your respect
toward others. Be willing to
listen when they desire to un-
burden their feelings. In this
manner the true YOU win be
reflected.
Refrain from making friends
simply to exploit them, since such
selhshness does not contribute to
beauty. If you persist in being a
braggart. or showing off your
good qualities you will find II hard
to make and keep friends. Strive
to lose your self consciousness. A
beauty does not indulge in self
pity. A beautiful girl never over
dresses, instead she is known for
her good taste in the selection Of
her clothes.
If you were not fortunate
enough to be born with good
taste in clothes, it's no matter;
it can be acquired, you know.
Never try to pile on every
piece of jewelry at once. To be
beautiful you'll always use good
taste. When you use good taste,
you will be gracious, well-poised,
and thoroughly agreeable at all
times. ETIQUETTE SAYS
Never comb your hair, or re-toueh
vo1r makeup in public, retire to

Hyde-Everett
Broadcast

Notable monuments, historic
ally important, were chosen by
the pupils Of the four sixth
grades Of Hyde and Everett
Schools for a radio broadcast
over WMEx in the "Know Your
City" series, sponsored by the
Boston Public Schools under d.
rection of radio coordinator
Robert c. Schimmel Of the Aud
io-Visual Department.
In preparation for the pro-
gram, the Grade VI students
went to the scene of the Crispus
Attacks episode on State Street,
to the memorial on Boston Com
mon and to the Robert Gould
Shaw Monument on Beacon Hill.
Wide research was made at the
South End Branch and Norfolk
House Branch, Boston Public
Library. The staff at the Robert
Gould Shaw House graciously
permitted use OF valuable in
formation there.
Miss Johnetta E. Jones intro
duced the program which was
recorded at WMEX on Wednes-
day, Feb. 8, and transcribed on
Sunday, Feb. IL, at 7:30 o'clock
to a large listening audience.
Also taking part were Maybelle
Bacon, Beverly A. Hyman, Edna
M. Lewis and Florine Howell.
Congratulatory messages have
been received from many sources
showing the wide listening audi
ence the program enjoyed. The
factual information secured by
the pupils was impressive and
showed their ability to find and
use reference books.

LEES PRIZES

In LIES early morning, we are
full of fire and energy. We see
something bright and dazzling
before us and rush toward it fleet
footed and sure. But, as the years
pass by, we lose our young
strength. Our hearts are not so
eager when we find that the
prize is not to be had so easily.
1t is more difficult to gain than
we thought. Having the notion
that good things were our right,
we assumed that we need only
to rush ahead and pluck them.
But, the wisdom of years teaches
that, "Life's prizes are not gifts,
they must be won" and, The
race is lot to the swift but to him
who endures,"

Dental Decay

Dental decay and loss of the teeth is usually thought TO he
a disease of middle life. However, developments in the field of
children's dentistry has shown that the foundation for most
dental disease begins in childhood, although MANY signs and
symptoms are not recognized then. The problem of prevention
OF dental decay and the eventual loss of the teeth should boyin
during the prenatal period. And, since the ravages of dental decay
is greatest during the first twelve years of life, it is important
mat adequate preventive and protective measures be instituted
very early in life too.
Baby teeth begin to develop about the eighth week Of life.
therefore, the future of the baby teeth depends to a great eytert
on the health and nutrtional state of the mother The bedfh
and diet of the expectant mother is chiefly the resnorsir1t,
OF the physician, but the dental health is most often NEGLECTED.
However, more individuals are aware of the Relationship ba,ron
a good functioning dental mechanism and nutrition e.radaY,
of expectant mothers.
The health and diet of the child during the first yoars IF
life are important factors in establishing good general ao,rb
as well as good dental health, because the baby teeth he-io A.,
calcify at birth. Any interference in Qualification OF he taot1
causes them to be poorly formed and to decay. Ricketts,, which H..
cur in the early years of life, interrupt the normal caliciGoa.
ton Of the teeth.
The dental health Of the baby must be respected ard cared
for from ne day Of birth. And each little tooth must be kent
clean by the mother. When the child is three years OF age no
should be given a complete dental examination including x.ray
All baby teeth that are decayed should be filled with permanent
Filings. The child should be instructed in the proper homo caro-
of the teeth, and informed about the Importance of good oral
hygiene. The child should have periodic dental examinations a,
intervals OF about six months, and any corrective measures that
may be necessary should be performed Immediately.

Fall Battle Front Opens At Gibbs

The fall battle front has opened at
Gibbs Elementary school with one pupil
violently and visibly killed. Note the word
visibly. Pupils are being slaughtered daily
at Gibbs, but not visibly. That is the rea-
son parents and patrons are so complacent.
The slaughter is not of the type that
permits one TO turn on the television and
see children dying on the visiscroens. 1t is
a slow slaughter of bodies restricted in ex-
ercise by limited equipment and no play
space. 1t is the slow slaughter of pupils who

Several years ago, the dedication of a
Negro school in Little Rock would have been
progress, but in 1850 1t simply means that
the aims and detectives of the times are be-
ing retarded. And the Negro is being used
to retard his W progress. Just how long
this condition will exist in Little Rock, de-
ponds entirely upon the Negro citizenry. As
long as the Negro wears a veil clouded with
ignorance and superstition and accepts the
white mans leadership instead of making
and supporting his own leaders, the state

Call For New Leadership
ey Robert DUR

On my way to the bank a few days ago,
I discovered that | would arrive fifteen
minutes ahead of the man whom | was to
meet in the lobby. As this dawned upon me,
/ slowed down and engaged in a conversa-
ton with a distinguished looking colored
man who stood outside an oculist's store
front.
Hello there, l began, you look like
you might have been a bishop or a great
physician.
He replied, "Well | am not even a
preacher or doctor, but | am a Christian,
and ! guess you see the Christian mark on
my face-they say you can see the beauty
of Jesus in a Christians face" He went
on to say he had been an officer in a
church for thirty years and used to work in
a steel mill, but had retired several years ago
and '0fen the Job of cleaning up around the
oculist's shop just to keep busy.
Alter 4 mad inquired as to the church
TO which he belonged, he named one of the
biggest churches in the city. / told him that
i knew Of his pastor-a man with many
college degrees, head of a great association
and a college as we'll, and a member of
many important boards, and that the church
was fortunate in having hat sort Of man for
its leader.
He replied that they were not satisfied
with their pastors pastoring because of the
very things | had pointed out. He asked me
II | had noticed hat their pastors name
was never seen in the papers as one connect
ed with movements for the benefit of the
people Of the city as a whole. He went on
TO point out that his pastor has to spread
out over SO many things that he does not
have the time TO participate in movements
Tor the benefit of the people and, therefore
was not giving them and the people out
side the church the kind of leadership they
needed so much.
! had the mar repeat his bill of par
ticulars foi the second time, for | realized
he spoke better than he knew. ! told him I
had ro idea that people on his level were
thin ng ir that way and that | had felt
for ila EDst part they were so begged
down i1 superstition, materialism and emo
tion1.sin, that they were incapable Of hun
gerirg for consecrated, devout and genuine
love-fcr-humanity leadership.
1 asked what they were trying to do
about the situation. | was told that they
had been trying for quite some time TO call
a meeting 20 declare the pulpit vacant, but
thai, although The church is supposed to be
atonomous, they could not call such a meet
Ing without the consent of the pastor in
question, and that he would not approve the
call for the purpose of busting him by
declaring the pulpit vacant.
This man is typical of many who must
have ana want and call for down-to-earth
Arkansas State press., 1950-10-13

good leadership, also Of the many without
capable, adaptable and consecrated leader
ship in the elementary and fundamental
avenues of life. This ought to claim the at
tention of those in position to supply con-
structive and progressive leadership.
| heard a great student of yesterday
and today, who day-by-day, increases in sta
ture as a philosophical realistic idealist, say
recently he was told that at one time during
the height of the depression which followed
World War /, there were 500,0 900 men in
Chicago ready to march through the streets
of the great metropolis, break windows,
smash doors and take food, clothing and
what have you for their hungry wives and
children, and that the only reason they
did not do this was that no leader arose,
as Hitler did in Germany, and said follow
me-
He pointed out that, as one ponders
this, il can be seen why men like Huey p.
Long, Theodore Bilbo and Gene Talmadge
were SO potentially dangerous-that such
men paradiSing under feathers Of another
section of the country or the world for that
matter could have furnished the leadership
the 100000 men in Chicago would have
followed, gathering momentum and an in
creasing host of u%nthinking followers
which could have the United States into a
socialist, communist, of fascist State, and
thus sounded the death kneel to free en-
terprise and our democratic institutions.
The call for good leadership, if unan-
swered, provides an opening for the avent
of corrupt and destructive leadership. We
can not, therefore, underestimate the all
Importance Of answering it and providing
such leadership. At even a sacrifice.
1t is my feeling that one can not really
win a fight-that in trying to build by
fighting one may win battles but no victories.
OF course, in the wake of battle, good leaders
may build temples of victory. AS we march
as to war, therefore, it would be well TO
keep in mind that old stubborn mule who
will not move no matter how much you
beat him, but who can be led over the Alps
with a little sugar or a few carrots.
In all the revolutions we have had, |
feel safe in saying that they were results
of the masses being led by someone who came
forward and babe them follow to a promised
paradise which may have been mythical or
real. Men are still willing to follow those
adept in the art of leadership. To keep what
we have gained, we must not relax or neg
lect the development, maintenance and sup
port of good leadership on all levels, eS-
pecially as it applies to those who are not
equipped to force and give unto themselves
that lamp. Enlightened s~elfishness, If not
altruism, demands this as the price Of a
good life tomorrow.
