About The Beach

PROTECTION is the word

this season. The hyper- suntan is definitely out. Not that 1935 doesn't like the old $117. It's only that 1935 is wise from experience;

it .knows that to protect the summer skin helps to keep youth. Over-indulgence sunbathing may age the skin from five to ten years! Re- peated doses of sunburn and suntan work havoc on skin transparency and render one fruitful prey to early wrinkles and coarse skin tex- ture. It's not worth it.

Let your equipment for the beach include a large, foppy straw hat; a very lange sun-nm- brella; plenty of large muslin or towelling beach rugs; extra large towels for covering up; large sun goggles. They are good be- ginning, but remember to add to them such skin essentials a3 sun- bain protective creams and sun-.. tan oil You'll stay pretty all summer long if you smart equipment: You'll stay cool too-and look it.

Don't wear tight-fitting bath- ing shoes. Get them somewhat longer than your ordinary size shoe Get open ones--it's then to let the water wash the sand away. Wear the heel which makes you feel most comfortable. Beware of falling metatarsal arches. Then, too, tight rubber. bathing shoes draw under the hot sun.

Don't drink ice-cold drinks too soon after your sunbath, Natur- ally, you have the sense to avoid them before, after and during summer (or any) exercising.

Don't try to get all your tan at once. Easy does it, does it beautifully. Take your first sun- baths (not more than ten minutes" worth the first day) in mid-after- noon. Try mid-morning for your fourth. (Not longer than half an hour this time.) It's the slant- ing rays you're interested in, 20 cultivate these halfway between dawn and noot, noon and sunset. They hold more than enough uil ⚫traviolet-more than you will be willing to accept. On the fifth day if your skin is not hypersen sitive and if is well-protected by sunburn creams you may be
