ORDER OF THE SHAVE

The man Of the house will
bless you for these shaving
secrets from professional BARRIERS.
To wit: Wash the face with
plenty of soap and hot water
before lathering, to soften the
beard. Then work up a fluffy
lather mot too thick or too thin"
and apply generously. Next, hold
A stearning towel or wash cloth
close to the face for more soften
ing. Apply a little more lather
and then the razor blade-sharp,
clean, and dry. Always shave in
the direction the beard grows,
taking long strokes with the
grain. Wash the face again in
stead of just wiping off excess
lather, and finish off with lotion
or powder.

BEAUTY HINTS
INSIDE CLEANLINESS

II is a fact that internal clean
illness is a great promoter Of ex-
terror beauty. Proper elimina-
ton, and a pure rich blood fur
nish a background for a fine clear
skin. When you see woman
with the unblemished, healthful
skin, you may be sure she is
clean inside, for poisons have a
way of showing themselves
through boils and pimples and
muddy skin. If you would have
outward beauty, you must have
inward cleanliness. Take extra
precautions, therefore: take teas
for elimination, and purifiers and
tonics for the blood then, fire.

And now, you will be ready for

BY JAMES EDWARDS

NEW YORK; had often want
ed to 60 to Bermuda-the island
of Paradise. had often dreamed
Of loafng in the pink coral sands
under a warm, soothing sun and
view the law-hanging fieecy
clouds floating by. AT last this
longing was being fulfilled. After
working three years making NOV
ing pictures, touring the country
performing and lecturing, / was
having my first vacation.
Sitting there on the plane as
we approached the runway, /
thought back how close l had
come to not having my dream
fulfilled. 1t had been very close;
I was 20 minutes late when my
cab pulled into the air terminal.
I was informed by the red cap,
who took my bag, that the plane
was waiting for me. A 20 minute
wait for any plane was unusual.
I rushed in to present my ticket
and ran through the cold, driving
rain to the plane. The Colonial
Airlines stewardess greeted me
with a smile and showed me to
my seat. AS / walked down the
aisle, ever yone turned as if
to say, so you're the person who
has been holding us us!" We
TAXED out and took off. AS we
rose into the air looked out of
the window and mocked the rain
and cold, knowing that soon /
would be in a land of tropical
splendor.
About so miles out and over
the Atlantic ocean, began to
look about and observe my fell
low travellers. The atmosphere
within the plans was that of ex-
citement. The reason for this feel
ing, I was soon to learn, was
that three-quarters Of the pass
engers were honeymooners. Being
a bachelor, I naturally felt out of
place.
MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
AS we neared the island, I was
fascinated by the many beauti-
full lights below. One light, in
particular, attracted my atten-
ton. It was a gigantic white fin
ger reaching up into the dark
blue sky. Later l was to find out
that this was the beacon light of
the U. S. Army Air Base-Kinley
Field. Upon landing, l was told
by the stewardess to remain in
the plane until the rest of the
passengers h ad departed. 1
thought this strange at first, but
upon leaving the plane, the rea-
son was made clear. At the foot
Of the steps stood 10 or Is people;
flash bulbs were popping all over
the place, Os I walked down the
steps, reporters began asking
questions. It was all pretty won
derful.
The first Bermudians to greet
me officially was my friend and
host, Mr.. Hilton G. Hill, Presi-
dent Of the Bermuda Tourist
Association, and the Hon. e. T.
Richards, colored member of the
House Of Parliament of Bermuda.
As l stood there on the landing
strip, a strong balny breeze was
blowing in from the ocean. !

CHOOSE WISELY FOR
SERVTCEABLE SLIPCOVERS

Slipcovers should be designed
for the washing machine as well
as for the sofa and chairsl Think
in terms Of the washing machine
first. The perspiration and soil
that accumulate on slipcovers re-
spond best to soap-and-water
cleaning; instability is even
more important than color and
pattern. Washable fabrics offer
so much variety in weave and
color schemes that it's easy to
find something you like which is
also save suds. Pre-shrunk cot
tons save worry in laundering
and many rayon and other syn
thetics are washable also.
Whether you plan to make or
buy new slipcovers, take your
time in shopping to be sure that
they will give you the longest
and most satisfactory service.

One consolation in this period
of high prices is the knowledge
that it doesn't take a big budget
to look well-groomed and attrac-

If hair is kept shiny clean;
fingernails tapered, shaped, and
spotless, and face well-scrubbed,
you'll give a good impression
without quantities of makeup.
Keep lingerie crisp and dainty

blouses laundered and pressed.

The Importance of having chill
