BEAUTY AND YOU
BY n. r. ELMO

Q. What is the correct rouge
placement for the oval type of
face?
A.For this perfect" face type,
start blending the rouge in the
center of the cheek, working back
towards the hairline. Blend until
there is a complete fadeout of color
along the hairline.
q. What can L do for better
grOOmed eyebrows?
A. Make a practice of brushing
them regularly, first against the di-
rection of growth and then smooth
ly into place. If they're too light, a
touch of brown eyebrow pencil is in
order.

identity all Democrats as Communists, after 20 years it may
again be time for a change, but with only one party in exist

the country needs its eststrength
PERHAPS IT is that the Republicans feel that their
greatest asset hes in the Communist appeal, and that their
tenure IS safe for at least 90 years if only they could make
the Communist issue live long enough At least, the writers
and commentators say, that should the Republicans success
fully pin the Communist label on the Democrats, there will
be easy sailing politically for a long, long time, and such ques-
