Colour-Key To Charm

And Energy

COLOUR is of vital importance in building up

the personality of women. If a woman finds her right colour-key she can magnify her charm and energy a hundredfold.

She is the first and only woman "colour director," Mrs. Natalie M. Kalmus, a warm, vivacious blondo with violet blue eyes. Her husband, Dr, Herbert T. Kalmus, is founder and director of Technicolour, the original colour film company, and she has been

Washington, Feb. 3. The human race is develop- ing faster than it ever did, in Ales the opinion of Dr. *Hrdlicka, curator of anthropo- logy at the Smithsonian Insti- tution.

Dr. Hrdicka, quoted by the American Magazine, says our descendants will be taller than we are, handsomer, have less hair, fewer teeth, and better

brains. They may even loso, their fifth toes. Most will come through superhuman tests of endurance.

Dr. Hrdlicka has spent 39 of his 66 years studying hun- dreds of thousands of living and dead human beings from the Ice Age up to now. Six months of each year he spends digging skeletons. To-day he wonders If some scientists will dig up his skeleton In ́ 6000 A.D. and call him a pri- mitive man.-United Press.
