Posed by Bette Davia for Lois Leeds.

1f you don't like your Ears, wear your hair in such a way that they don't show!

"DEAR LOIS LEEDS"

"Dear Lois Lreds-Is there any method other than dampening the hair when set in pln curls? My hair is so dry-ENERGETIC."

You can use a hair folton especially formulated for Dry Hair. And you cán massage your scalp with oint- ment and brush your hair regularly to overcome the dry condition,

"Dear Lols Leeds- -In liere Ruy treatment for wrinkles under the eyes? --E."

Yes, rooth the eyes by using eye Jotion and damp compresses when resting. "Fingertip" lightly under the eyes, using a rich eye cream.

"Dear Lois Leeds-What type of shoe is most beconding to the large foot?-G.E."

The simple, lassie pump; straps, no decorations. In oxfords, the classle type, without fancy trim.

Minute Makeys

GABRIELLE

If you use liquefying cleansing cream, do you know that it does a grand cleansing job when used on a small pad of cotton? But this method takes too long when you have very little time. So, when you are at leisure, maite several dozen little round pads of-absor- bent cotton. Squeeze them out in water. Place them in a glass jar. Keep in the Ice box. They will save you time!

SIDE GLANCES

"Dear Lols Leeds-Makeup clogs my skin. What method for remov ing blackheads and what dally care do you suggest?"-T. G."

Makeup need not clog the pores if you cleanse properly. Soap and wenter, plus a goud cleansing cream, will keep your skin in perfect condi- tion so for as cleanliness is con- cerned.

"Dear Lola Leeds-What type of hat other than a large-brimmed one (which suits me), would you suggest?

isn't suitable A large brim

with everything--W," L.“

If you do not like small hats, why not wear ribbon bows or a clever beaded brand around your hair when a large one isn't appropriate?

"Dear Lois Leeds-I have small cars but they stick out! Is there any remedy for this-WORRIED."

None, other than plastic surgery, which might be effective. But, be clever and dress your hair so that your ears don't show-only heart

Governor of Hunun, „Wang Yung- yuan, was in favour of shipment of rice to Kwartung, but the Hunan provincial council, an advisory body, objected. The price of rice in Con- ton is about CN$900,000 a picul, while the price in Hunan is lower by half.

This ruling has been handed down from FL memorandum following UNRRA'S legal adviser in Shanghai, Jerome J.

THE controversy about the Roosevelt Memorial is compli cated by the fact that two distinct issues have been raised.
