If your hair Is very thick and

and, in some instances. even
thinned occasionally. II it is wiry
and unruly you will profit by hot
oil treatments and one Of the
creams made for dry hair.
If you have very fine hair you
would do well to have frequent but
light, loose, permanents. This type
hair cannot be curled at all tightly
with happy results and yet it needs
Ia permanent to give it body. Have
them lighter and oftener.
Thin women should not wear
severe hairstyles. The hair should
add softness not only to the face
but to the silhouette. Shoulder
length hairdos are not always be-
coming to the thin lady. Most of
them think it is because they
usually have long necks. Il 1t Is
worn long it should still be loose
and soft so it will not emphasize
the straight up and down look
which adds to the impression OF
length of face and figure.
Many women want to know how
to make their hair grow. There is
only one possible method and that
is the one you should use anyway
in order to keep the hair healthy
and cleaning. mean that homely
rule Of daily scalp massage and
daily brushing. These pay much
bigger dividends than women know
until they have tried it as a long
time rule. Naturally fine health
and good nutrition play their part
also.

Few women think of their hair
dos as a part of their silhouettes
1t is true that the most important
factor in determining hair style is
the shape of the face but the
figure should also be considered
whenever possible.
If you are very tall it stands to
reason that your hair should be
flatter on top. If you are bulgy
more height on top is indicated
Fat women should beware of bushy
looking hairdos.
On the other hand, many over
weight women make the mistake
of having their hair cut very short
even mannish looking in the back,
which is unattractive. The fat
woman should also beware of tight
small curls or waves. These are not
good on anyone but are especially
bad for the overweight.

Have you tried those well-Wear-
ing table mats that are made of
plastic that is embossed with a
realistic three dimensional sur
face? They are styled in a smart
hemp pattern which looks and
feels like an expensive place mat,
but are popularity priced. The
mats are treated to resist flame
and boiling water, and discourage
staining, discoloring and tearing.
You'll find they will not slide or
scratch the table surface; they
will stay fiat and not curl at the
corners. Clean simply by rinsing
under the faucet or with a damp
sponge. The place mats are ap-
proximately IL by IS inches and
are available with matching
coasters in a leaf design.

KINGBIRDS.

Kingbirds have acquired . bad
reputation as fighters. That Is the
impression some have when they
see the little kingbird dash after
q hawk or crow.
The courageous kingbird, though
often the victim of crows and
hawks, is canny. He watches for his
enemy to come within reach before
he makes a wild dash for ride
Once he lands upon the enerny's
back, he clings fast with long sharp
toes while he uses his sharp beak
to inflict wounds.
AL during the mad ride through
the air, the attacker screams. This
must confusing to the hawk OF
crow. 1t is amazing to see how the
pair perform in the air. When the
kingbird is convinced he has
classified his foe sufficiently, he
hops off and returns home.

honey bees. His other names. Bee

been gazing unhappily at dummy's

tinued the suit, knocking out

down the heart queen, hoping that
East had the king and would ac-
cept 1t, thus making the heart jack
good for an entry. East was having
none Of that, however; he held up
the king, and now, no matter how
declarer maneuvered, he could win
only eight tricks.
North-South then launched into
the foresaid bidding argument,
which was natural enough consid-
ering that slam could have been
made in diamonds by virtue Of the
heart fineSse.
1t would be improbable to report
all the suggestions made by North
and South relative to what the
other should have bid; the more
pertinent issue is that South was
actually playing a three-no-t trump
contract and should have made it!
He should have been very happy at
the opportunity to unbloc-. his own
club king on East's ace! This would
assure him Of an entry to dummy,
and even though he could not un-
block the diamond suit. he could
take the heart finesse and, by win
ming it, collect five heart tricks toI
round out the contract.

N. Y. U. WORKSHOP-DR. ALPENFEIS
SHOULD RETURN

SHOULD RETURN
FOR THE second summer New York University has con-
Quoted its Summer workshop in these Islands. To us it is of
distinct advantage. Right here at home, without the need to
exPend great sums or break up family life, many Of our teach
ers have an opportunity to improve their training, and as a
result to do better work in the classroom, and open the way
for increased salaries.
THE PLACE OF education in the life of these Islands
or any community for that matter, cannot be overestimated.
And in a free world this becomes even more important, for
only in terms of a thoroughly enlightened and educated pub
lie can freedom thrive. 1t is for this reason that totaltarianism,
or dictatorship, by whatever name it is known, first seeks to
control the processes of education, and it always begins with
the press, then the radio, then the schools, and then down the
line. TO have our teaching staff improved means broader hori-
IONS tor the coming generations, and for this no price is too
high to pay.
Q THE SECOND year land we hope very many more)
the Workshop has been headed by DR.. Ethel Alpenfels, Pro-
fessor Of Education at New York University. DR.. Alpenfels
had not been here very long before she began to realize lust
where and how the greatest good could be done, and she pro-
ceeded to follow that course. Given opportunity for further
visits her contribution will become most significant, and be
most worthwhile.
OUT OF THE Workshop experience may grow even big
ger things. We once envisioned a combination residence and
extension course where many of our teachers could take work
duringthe summer here, carry on during the winter, and then
spend a year, or whatever time was agreed upon, in residence
Such a plan might present obstacles but if it can at all be-
worked out then the merits would certainly overbalance the
difficulties.
DIR. has won a place in the heart of the
people Of these Islands, and it is hoped that she will make
education here a sort of project, and continue to work with
it. The superintendent of Education of St. Croix and Saint
Thomas are to be given credit for continuing to work closely
with these projects, and planning for others in the future.
