makeup

:oundution

IN ORDER to achieve good results in makeup,
attention must be paid to proper foundation.
1t is at this initial step that many women go
astray If the foundation is not satisfactory, both
in shade and application, then the rest of the make
up process has little chance for success.
One Of the prime problems encountered is the
selection of the correct foundation. Here, the
pexion plays vital part. After distinguishing the
true flesh tone, it is often advisable to select
foundation that is slightly darker. Tests will in
dictate exactly which shade will produce the desired
effect.
After determining the right shade, the type of
foundation must be selected. Cream foundation is
used when more covering powder is desirable.
This creates a heavier, more "made-up" look.
Liquid foundation is indicated when thinner, more
natural look is desired. The modern trend leans
toward this natural effect. Cake makeup is rarely
advisable since the composition may cause adverse
effects on the skin, such breaking out"
Care should be used in applying the foundation.
The main purpose of any foundation cream is to
obtain even fermentation over the entire area The
easiest way to do this is to apply the base by using
quick, patting motion rather than several dots.
One must be quite expert in blending the dots into
a smooth distribution. BY patting the base onto the
face, even the novice can achieve even distr-
button. The flat surface of two or three fingers
should be used in this process.
The foundation should be smoothed from the

outward from the outer Of the eye to meet the
above application. After the area of the eye has
received coating the rest of the face should
be covered by using long downward strokes. The
downward motion nsures smoothness by flattening
the soft downy hair which grows in that direction.
Any surplus should be carried down onto the neck.
The application is finished by patting the face,
making that the foundation has not been applied
too heavily.
The importance OF a good foundation cannot be
over emphasized. 1t is here that good makeup
job begins.

Lashed out at Jackie Robin

Il have great admiration for
Mr.. Robinson" said Mr.. Ken
nedy. but the fact is that be-
fore the convention he told our
representative that even if Mr..
Stevenson were nominated he
would be for Mr.. Nixon"
Mr.. Robinson, who has pub
licly stated his opposition to
Senator Kennedy, has accused
the Democratic candidate of
having breakfaSted with Ala
bama Gov. John D. Patterson
and the head of a White Citi-
zens Council, both of whom the
eXbaseball star condemned as
"bigots."

breakfast with Gov. Patterson, "

he sell out and make some deal

the South as did my brother" ."
Notes Khrushchev Tie
| Mr.. Kennedy then observed
that Mr.. Nixon had break
tasted with Soviet Premier
Khrushchev. In fact" he
added, they exchanged gifts.
Does this make Mr.. Nixon a
Communist or disloyal?"
AS for Mr.. Robinson:

O. Nuts, which is a non-union
shop. Robinson was charged
before the NLRB (National
Labor Relations Board, and
the NLRB partially sustained
the charge, that Robinson had

union"
Mr.. Kennedy added that the
head of Chock Full O. Nuts, a
chain of refreshments shops,
was a Republican and "an
ardent supporter of Mr.. Nixon" "
Mr.. Robinson, vice president
in charge of personnel of
Chock Full O. Nuts, immedi-

statements.

grist in the mills Of Com

Whatever the motives of
the kneel-ins, they have
placed the Southern Chris
tian church in a position of
choosing. Many of its lead
ers. deeply disturbed by the
arrival of a time of decision,
nonetheleSS are painfully
aware that those churches
which have usherS at the en-
frances, like doorkeepers at a
secret lodge, instructed to
make arbitrary decisions as
to who is coming sincerely to
worship and who isn't, are
in an untenable position bor-
dering dangerously on the
ridiculous. They know it is
not wise for organized Chris
tianity anywhere to make it
self appear ridiculous.
Unless a church wishes. as
it may, to become a private
club with a private member
ship list, it cannot continue
in the preposterous posture
of having a committee at the
doors which will pass judg-
ment on who is sincere and
who isn't.
In time, all but those
churches which wish to pro-

of course. simply decide that
