Brown Pencil

Do use a brown eyebrow
pencil instead of a black one,
even if you are a brunette.
II you are a true brunette,
use a combination of brown
and black pencils.
Don't place rouge low on
the face. This is aging. Do
blend 1t outward so that
there is not a defined line.
Don't put on two orEmore
coats of foundation or make
UP base. Make the first one
heavier, rather than to put
on coat after coat.
Don't powder heavily over
lines. The powder settles in
the creases and make them
more noticeable.
Mascara
Do use mascara, but be
sure that the brush is not
too wet. If it is, the lashes
will stick together. Black
mascara is flattering to
everyone but the very blonde

Here are a few dos" and
"don'ts" I have learned from
interviewing many experts in
the field of makeup, which is
truly a magic land that can
make you look more beauti-
full than you naturally are,
or less lovely than you nat
urally are.
Any woman can be made
more attractive with make
up, even If it is just a bit
of powder on her nose or
light mascara on the lashes,
or a touch of lipstick and
rouge.
Do make down instead of
up. When make up is too
heavy, it obscures natural
beauty and creates a harsh,
hard appearance. 1t should
be applied with a subtle touch
and should look as natural
as possible.

just a hobby-began at the

avenue NV.
Three pairs of fox terriers
bore the names Yankee and

studies in Mr.. Thompson's act.
The dogs had been trained to
perform a variety of acrobatic
tricks, but the climax of the act
was their bell-ringing rendition
of 1.-THE Last Rose of Summer"
Mr.. Thompson gave up the
circuit from Maine to Florida
and as far west as Chicago
while there were still many

Skills are "Wasted"
Our limited review has
shown that a serious problem
exists in the assignment of
personnel in the ready reserve
of the army" the report said.
Many of these individuals
have valuable skills, acquired
during their duty with the ac-
tive military forces, which are
wasted.
"a potentially more serious
matter is the inability Of Re-
serve units to promptly and ef-
fectively carry out their as

blamed the situation on an
Overriding emphasis" on keep
ing units at their authorized
strength, regardless of the
qualifications of the men tC
fill unit vacancies.
They said they found similar
conditions in Reserve units still
on inactive duty.
Requirements Well Chosen
BY contrast, the investigators
found that men taken from the
Army Reserve reinforcement
pool to fill vacancies in mo-
bilized units were generally
considered by the unit COM
manders to be qualified for the
positions assigned and to re-
quire little additional training
