Vitamins have a great effect
on the skin as well as on general
health. OF course, the skin re-
fleets general health, but some
skin defects seem directly asso-
ciated with vitamin deficiency.
Lack Of vitamin B can cause
LESSONS about the mouth, while too
little vitamin A can lead to ex-
tremely dry skin.
Dry skin is one of the factors
in aging which women must con-
Stantly fight if they are to keep
that youthful bloom past the
usual age for losing it. I often
mention the importance of skin
fabrication. but today I am think
ing Of what we can do to work
from the inside out.
Anemia can lead to sallow, life
less-looking skin. Some skin
eruptions decrease or disappear
with vitamin therapy. There is
today a whole lot of information
about what part vitamins play in
our physical condition, but there

There's a reason why fall and
winter fashion news begins to
make its appearance in news
papers and magazines so much
earlier than the seasons make
their appearance on the calendar.
Fashion is big business in nearly
every American city. June, July
and August find the garment in
dustry working at a feverish pitch
in order to start the gigantic
wheel of fashion spinning so that
when it stops you will feel that
the number you have selected is
q winner. This, whether or not
you do your fall and winter shop
ping early or late.
Those clothes have first to be
selected by store buyers, manu-
factured, shipped and readied at
their point of destination before
you can trot over to a rack and
just pick out what you like.
Our reporting the newest FASH
Ion developments Of the new sea-
son at this time is to prepare you
with some Of the trends to note
and to watch.
We. too. haven't even worn our
new summer bathing suit-if
that's any consolation!
There have been some changes
made where shoulder lines are
concerned they appear to be
wider, deeper, and when they
slope. they curve very gently.
MIDCAIF is the distance be-
tween the floor and the daytime
The long and short of it where
hemlines are concerned is quite
amusing in the evening fashions.
Some designers leave their simple
dinner dresses long and others
show very elaborate ball gowns in
the cutoff versions
It's done on purpose-the non
hitting look so many jackets and
coats have. Coat shapes are very
new and exciting with some fiat
and wide-looking designs =.
others that fall in the hourglass,
morning glory silhouette, and even
the cocoon shape is quite effective.

Why Grow Old?
Depends on Vitunnins

Is yet a lot to be learned. We
should endeavor to apply those
principles already known in a
well-balanced diet.
In the case of a dry skin we
should get as much vitamin A in
the diet as possible and, in ex-
treme cases. reinforce our diet
with vitamin-A capsules. If your
weight and your waistline can
stand it. increase the fats in the
diet. Eat more cream and butter
and salad dressings. This can
make big difference In the skin.
Married women still battle the
problem of the dry skin. Not
many Of them wish to sleep with
cold cream on. Again and again
this question comes up. have
already mentioned the fact that
there are some fine night oils
which leave very little shine on
the skin. There is also a night
stick which is greaseless and looks
more like makeup base than any,
thing else.
Also. remember that you can

NEW YORK.
radio and TV in the United
States give the public the finest
programs possible because they are
free and competitive" says Ted
Cott, vice president of NBC
and general manager Of WNBC
and WNBT, who recently returned
from a trip to Europe.
"Britain's best programs are
truly superb" said Cott in an
interview, "but there aren't too
many of those. When you COM
|bine all their programs, the aver
age is not too good.
I'm France one of the top TV
officials told me that perhaps in
five years they may have as much
as 80 hours of television a week.
Here in our country some TV sta
tions are on the air for almost
"a hours a day."
The NBC executive discussed
one idea that came out Of a con-
versation with British Actor John
Gielgud.
"Gielgud told me that the Brit
ish feel more at home when not
restricted to half hour or one
hour. They prefer to 60 at a
leisurely pace and present a drama
in an hour and a quarter or hour
and a half. I like the idea and
hope to do the same thing here.
Let the play and the actors be the
deciding factors. Why be limited
to the conventional time patterns
|of radio and Twp"
Colt said he was having some
of the better British dramas
transcribed over there by. their
excellent performers and sent over
for United States listeners.
He also spoke Of an "Interna-
tional Disc Jockey Hit Parade. ."
This would bring the best-selling
foreign records to this country
|and thereby give us an opportunity
to hear their favorites.
'The Europeans love our popular
SONGS" smiles Cott. I'm Paris
even heard American hill billy
songs in French"
Cott enjoys talking about the
achievements of American radio
and television. But he is observant
enough to admit that we can still
learn something from other meth
DDS used in other lands.

Is Everything Fictitious,
Or Does 1t Just Seem So?
Bv Horv Macarthur

You can say what you will about
television-and most of it will be
true. 1t is television, however. and
nothing else which has put the
finger on the ailment of our times.
It may even be unaware that
it has done this, but it has done
it nonetheless.
This disclosure of what's wrong
around here is made weekly at
the conclusion of Foreign In
trigue," or "Boing-Boing." as it
is known in some circles in tribute
to its musical signature. After all
else has been said, drama con-
cluded and credits listed, a legend
fills the screen. Gall characters
and situations are fictitious" 1t
reads.
Now, there is statement which
brings everything into focus. 1t
is at once explanation and conso-
lation. It is not, "All characters
and situations in this drama" 1t
is GALL characters and situations
are fictitious"
This is not as universal motto
as the philosophers, "This. too,
shall pass" but it will do and it
comes to us at the right time.
If you doubt the statements
truth, you can't have been paying
close attention to your televis1on
screen lately. Viewers have seen,
for instance. two great political
conventions in session. Many,
unprepared by previous knowledge
|of what a political convention
looked and sounded like. had
trouble believing their eyes and
ears.
On top of it all, the two con-
ventions named as presidential
candidates the two men who
seemed more reluctant than any
one else in the land. They did
not give the nod to politicians
running for Office and out there
fighting for votes. They selected
"a retired general who used to say
that no military man should seek
public Office and a governor who
said he would shoot himself II he
got the nomination.
This may be good but it still
looks fictitious.
Then there were those flying
saucers. A TV program named
1--WE, the People" talked a group
of grown men into boarding an
airliner and going aloft to search
the skies for unknown aerial OBJ
jects." A local television station
decided the saucers ought to come
to it. It asked its viewers to let
lit know about any strange lights
Evening star., 1952-08-12

in the sky or hallucinations which
overlook them. Then it stationed
a camera and crew on the roof
waiting in vain for a hallucina-
ton to fly by.
And what do the TV newsreels
keep showing us? They keer
showing us pictures of a fat de-
posed king living in royal penury
at lush resorts. Do you think he
really exists? He does not.
All characters and situations
are fictitious, like that program

! STOCKHOLM. - The nationa

cooperative known as K. F., plays
a very important part in Sweden's

Behind the network of retail
outlets is a vast network of flour
mills, bakeries. and plants turning
out articles ranging from shoes,
clothing. and light bulbs. to agri-
cultural machinery and chemicals.
