Press Club
Is COOKING
For a Cause

Associated Press Reporter
Ruth Cowan Qike many Of her
colleagues in the Fourth Es-
tate) probably would be the
first to admit she's better
known for her by-lines than
her culinary ability.
But when she casually asked.
"Who says we can't cook?" she
won a contest for naming the
cookbook now being compiled
by the Women's National Press
Club for publication early in
November. (Her question be-
came the title and Ruth will
be rewarded by not having to
pay for her dinner at the
clubs stunt party next spring)

Care Of yonr fingers and
toes is extremely important.
not only in achieving that
charming, well-cared-for look,
but in physical comfort.
Hangnails can become sore
and infected and ingrown
toenails can be incapaciating.
Callouses can be painfulnsTo-
day ! would like to list a few
tips for the care of hands
and feet
/. Buy stockings which are
long enough. Many women
who buy correctly fitted shoes
buy stockings which are too
short. These can be almost
as damaging as shoes which
are toe short, You have a
half-inch to spare in the
toes.
2. The habit of cutting toe
nails straight across the top
will sidestep ingrowing toe
nails.
3. Walking barefooted is
good exercise for the feet.
Grip your toes against the
floor or lawn as you walk.
4. Alternate hot and cold
baths are restful to the feet.
5. Pain in the legs may
come from weak arches. If
the condition is not too ex-
treme special exercise will
help.
6. You should treat your
feet to a softeing lotion just
as you do your hands.
Z. Extremely dry skin may
come from vitamin deficiency.
8. Clear polish is very smart
looking for daytime wear.
8. Clawlike red nails are no
longer smart. The length of
your nails should depend
partly on the life you lead.
Very long nails are completely
impractical for the woman
who does her own work be-
cause, of course, they break off.
A moderately long nail is best.
10. Cuticle oil or cream will
do wonders for the dry skin
surrounding either fingernaiIs
or toenails. Use this every
night If you have dry cuticle.

63-year-old Johann Altman

Johann owns and runs q rs
acre farm near here that Is
the pride Of the district.
It is as modern as could be
found in Austria. The majority
Of his farming is done with his
tractor and the collection Of
machinery that makes his
equipment barn look a little
like a farm equipment show
room. He loves nothing better
than to show of his tractor.

combine: the power drills and
saws in his workshop. and the
monumental hydraulic press
that he uses to press the fruits
from the farm.
you should ask him about
the washing machine" his wife
Johanna broke In as she came
around the corner with q big
fiat baking sheet filled with
cookies which she slipped into
the greenfield stove. She
laughed and disappeared back
into the kitchen.
yah. Mamma likes to do
things the old way" Johann
grinned. "A while ago I
bought her q new washing
machine and it's been sitting
out in the passageway ever
since. The old ways seem to
suit her fine. You should
watch her now"
Taking Herr Altmann's in

Deauville.S . small Norman

antly one month q year.
Deauville is handy to both
London and Paris. In August
It also has q rich race meeting
and q lusty polo tournament to
attract those who are inter-
ested in the most expensive Of
sports. Also attracted are those
who are interested in the own
ers Of all this horse flesh.
Deauville Is the only place
on the map which has held
Prince Ally Khan's interest for
two full weeks at q stretch and
it's horses that intrigue him.
The repeated equestrian chal-
lenges offered him by Group
Captain Peter Townsend
peaked his natural interest
even more.
Horsey People
Many horsey people have
been going to Deauville for
generations. The Americans,
the Ralph Beaver Strassberg-
ers have had q house there for
years and have almost given
up Paris to stay there the year
around. Mr.. Strassberger
claims to have been the first
man to take Marjorie Post to q
party. That great event took
place at Annapolis when he
was q midShipman.
