ABOUT YOUR HOME
Larger Homes Often
Have 2 Powder Rooms
ine iasnionaoie name to call
the old downstairs lavoratory
these days is “powder room,”.
This room, attractively deco
rated, can be an important ad
dition to any home. Color, wall
paper and light will do wonders
for even the smallest and dark
est lavoratories.
Larger homes often boast two
powder rooms—one for women
and one for men. In such cases
it is effective to decorate ac
cordingly.
Wallpaper may well be the
keynote of design and color. If
the room is small, the paper
pattern should not be very
large. If the ceiling seems too
high because of the smallness
of the room, remember that a
toohigh ceiling can be brought
down by covering it with a dark
color. A low-cedling can be rais
ed with a light color.
Draperies, rugs and towels
make pleasing strong accents of
color when wallpaper is used.
If the room is large enough,
a dressing table is useful as
well as attractive Anything
may be used, from a table
covered with a calico petticoat
to the most elaborate silken
affairs.
A long mirror on the door is
good when possible and will

Helped More Babies -Than Ever
Kvttl
f.
Greensboro — The Children’s
Home Society of North Caro
lina, Inc., reported today that
it helped more babies and chil
dren during 1965 than any oth
er year in its 63-year history.
L. P. McLendon, Jr., presi
dent of the statewide adoption
service agency, said help was
given to 856 babies and chil
dren. This was 72 more than
received aid in 1664, he said.
“The Society’s staff accom
plished this under great pres
sure, with many hours of work,
and in response to such heart
breaking appeals for help that
it seemed impossible to say,
‘No.’ ” McLendon said.
“Some couples seeking to
adopt waited longer than we
wanted, and that final adoption
paper was delayed in some in
stances,” he continued. “I can
assure you that every baby or
child accepted into care receiv
ed our usual high-quality ser
vice.”
At the same time, McLendon
warned that imbalance between
appeals for help and resources
with which to meet the ap
peals may spell difficulties in
the months ahead. When de
mand exceeds the agency’s
ability, he pointed out, it will
be necessary to turn applicants
away. McLendon said the Exe
cutive and Finance Committees
recently adopted a total budget
of $340,000 for the present year
The Children’s Home Society
receives support from United
Fund campaigns in many com
munities, through Carolina:
United and the Greensborc
United Fund. In addition to the
Greensboro headquarters and
nursery, there are district of
fices in Charlotte, Asheville
Greenville, and Wilmington.

Health And Beauty
Advantages Of Healthy
Complexion Are Many
- r
kJfJ
?-'
' *M 8
It is true that make-up can
make up for a lot in a com
plexion. But the mask of beauty
is always better worn over a
healthy, glowing complexion.
One of the most important
steps, is the matter of cleaning.
The complexion is skin, an
elastic membrane, resting on a
cushion of fat. The outside lay
er of skin is made up of dead
cells which are constantly being
cast off. The growth of new skin
proceeds from below the skin,
outward.
The skin is supplied from un
derlying tissues, through small
arteries. A stimulating facial
helps to give clarity to the skin
by increasing circulation.
Oily skins are best cleansed
with cold cream or soap and wa
ter. A double rinsing is a good
idea. After cream-cleansing, the
oily skin can be freshened with
a mild astringent.
Dry skins should be cleansed
with an emollient cream, follow
ed by a skin-freshener.
Enough rest and a balanced
diet are as important as any
thing you can do to achieve a
lovely complexion. In fact,
these are called the corner
stones of beauty.
Exercise in the fresh air,
when possible, is important to
the tone of your skin from head
to foot.
Bad complexion p r o b 1 e m|s
should always have the attention
of a doctor. Your body may be
lacking in important vitamins.
