SQUARE DANCE

fFrom Mrs. T. J. H., Washington
To Mrs. w. N. c., Arlington: !:
Our church has held a number of
successful squade dances although
not for as large a group as you
anticipate.
First, be sure you contact a
good caller. This is of prime i'm
portance. For decorations. we
used corn shucks and pumpkins
in the fall, or perhaps green's and
holly in January. with an imi-
tation harvest moon hanging in
the middle of the ceiling.
The decorations which gave the
most atmosphere. however, were
huge pictures which we drew on
brown paper and painted with
poster paint of square dances,
flddlers. ETC.. and put on the
walls. If possible, you should try
to sell your tickets beforehand
and know how many are coming.
Advertise extensively. Fruit punch
is by far the best seller in re-
freshments, ice cream, homemade
cookies and doughnuts for some
thing more substantial.

How Women Over 35
Can Look Younger
by Helena Rubinstein
by Helena Rubinstein

1T is now established beyond any
shadow of doubt that estrogenic
hormones can make women over 35
look younger, and clinical tests prove
that these estrogens car, be safely ap-
piled tn cosmetics.
Doctors have discovered that up to
35, woman's skin receives an abun-
dant supply of natural estrogens
through the blood stream. These nat
ural estrogens enable the supporting
under-t tissues of your skin to retain
moisture. This moisture gives your
skin the full. firm look that is the
secret of young beauty.
When natures supply of estrogens
begins to dry up, after the age of 35,
your under-skin loses its natural mois-
ture, and your outer-skin actually be-
gins to collapse. Its radiant fullness
and freshness disappear. You begin to
show tragic signs of age-dryness,
wrinkles, repey throat. old-skin
hands.
Your Skin LooIss Young Again
Now it is possible to counteract this
aging of your appearance. When ap-
piled externally, through gentle
massage, my famous Estrogenic
Hormone Cream helps your un-
der-skin retain it's vital moisture.
Your under-skin fills out normally,
and your outer-skin gently stretches
and smooths out. Tiny lines become
less visible. Excessive taking

what the doctors call discrimination
is arrested. The hormones dilate
your blood vessels, and stimulate cir
culation. Your skin looks young again!
Millions of women have already
benefited miraculously. Says Mrs.
Mary Roberts of San Diego: Il really
find Helena Rubinstein's Estrogenic
Cream simply marvellous. l can
honestly say there is remarkable
difference in my skin"
But these admirable results don't
often happen overnight. l advise you
to try my Estrogenic Hormone Cream
for at least 80 days. 1t contains 10, 900
international Units of natural estro-
genie hormones per ounce, a quantity
carefully measured to give you excel
lent results.
A Thrilling Experience
IF you are over 35, it is thrilling when
you begin to look younger. Compli-
ments come your way. What have
you been doing to YOURSELF" your
friends ask You are gloriously aware
that you look prettier, brighter.
Your husband looks at you with
new interest. Life suddenly seems
more exciting.
More women are using Helena
Rubinstein's Estrogenic Hormone
Cream than any other brand. 1t is
now on sale at all good department
stores and drug stores, at only $50
plus tax for 80 days supply.

JACKSON CUBS CONTINUE
SOUTHERN LEAGUE Wins
BEAT ATLANTA BRAVES Ga SUNDAY

The Jackson Cubs continued
wins and were still undefeated in
Southern League play as they beat
the youthful but highly rated At
lanta Braves Ga at Browns Sta
dunn here Sunday afternoon.
The Braves got off to an early
lead when Jones, the pitcher, bat
ting in the cleanup spot, dashed
a double to the right field wall for
two runs.
The Cub half of the third frame
opened with Norwood blasting a
low fast pitch over the right field
fence to tighten the score Az in
favor of the Braves.
From the Cub half of the third,
still unruffled by Norwood's blast
over the right field wall, Jones,
the young Atlanta lefthander who
undefeated in three years of At
lanta high school play, held the
Cubs hitless and scoreless until
the last of the eighth when a flock
of errors and two walks and one
hit Melted the Cubs d runs and
put them in the lead by a Ga
score.
In the fifth, Manager Hender-
son sent in Lefty Smith, the ex-
Lanier High School star, to re-
place Jackson on the mound for
the Cubs.
For the five frames during
which he worked Smith did not
permit a run and held the Allan
tans to one hit while striking out
five.
Jones, the young Atlanta star,
went the distance and but for er-
rors in crucial spots would have
held the 4-2 lead the Braves took
over Jackson Cubs Carter.
This Sunday the Cubs will tan
gle for the first time with the
Mobile Shippers, noted as the best
team in the league.

Carter whips
Williams To
Take Crown

New York, May %. - James
Garter, virtually unknown New
York Negro who had lost two of
three 1851 fights, wrenched the
world lightweight title from Ike

technical knockout victory in 2:49
of the 18th round at Madison

of the crown since 1916, under

this afternoon making the 1876

1873.
The new champ, born in Aiken,
S. c. q years ago, but raised in
the Bronx, dropped the old champ
four times before Referee Petey
Scalzo stopped it to save groggy
Ike from serious injury.
Because Carter was ranked 18th
among the contenders in its latest
ratings, the National Boxing AS
ISOLATION refused to sanction this
as title bout. But the New York
State Athletic Commission gave
its blessing.
Carter, biding his time while
Williams shot the works early,
dumped Williams for five with
long right to the left temple mid
way in the fifth. 1t was a shot
out Of the blue as Williams seemed
complete boxing master up to that
time.
Carter swarmed over Williams
with a body attack that sent him
sailing through the ropes onto the
ring apron in the tenth. He got
back at the count of four.
