Most bojs ask mc out for a specific occasion, but when one asks mt what I want to do, I ncitr know what to sug gest, especially if it's the first date. What should I do? A. Whatever you do, don't give him the "1 don't care" routine! By the time a boy aslts you out and you accept, you must know something about each other's interests. Try to remember what he talks about. He may have given you some clues about things to do. Has he seen a certain movie? Does he swim, bowl or play golf? Do you? Before datetime think of everything you would like to do that you think he would enjoy too. Keep his finances in mind and don't insist on an expensive evening if you think he can't afford it. He'll appre ciate your consideration for his interests and wallet—and will be calling soon for another date. Q. I love to ride la sports can, bat I always feci awkward getting la a mi oat of them. IT* not ao bad when I'm wearing slacks or bermdai, tat skirts mn a real problem. Is there tmj way to grt la and oat gracefully? A. The beat solution to this problem is the side approach. To enter, sit down sideways, keep your legs together, and swing your knees around until you face forward. To get out, reverse the procedure. With Eleanor Roosevelt. Mrs. Saber's point of view—We must, in the words of the Convention TTieme, Teach, Reach, and Serve—Now, Not tomorrow, or the day after, for, "Tomorrow is Now. Now is the time to do the things that needs to be done. Following the Supervisor's ad dress, the Convention honored Mrs. Lucille Cooke upon having achieved 25 years of service. Gifts to the honoree included a handsome purse. The dynamic Mrs. MyiJUe Knox, toastmistress for the evening, led the group in appropriate songs at both the Honor Service and the Ban quet later. Mrs. Cooke expressed her philosophy of life—Give a per son his flowers while he's alive—by pinning lovely cor sages on her officers who had given so unstintingly of their time to the service of the So ciety. Wednesday—Mrs. Baber met with the Young People, assur ing them that she understood their problems, which are the problems of young people the world over; she understands why they like to do certain things, though they may not make sense to adults: and ad vised them to take their prob lems to their supervisors. She installed the following officers: Matthew Holland, President: Marie Deloatch. First Vice President: Lillie Ann Har riott, 2nd Vice President; and Donald Hall. Treasurer. Later, the Y. P D. gave an impressive service, highlighted by a very colorful skit entitled. ' New Nations Challenge Chris tianity." The skit, done by the Wilmington Area youth, dealt with the rise of those African nations which have gained their freedom since 1948. Particular stress was laid upon the idea that Christianity should serve these young, weak nations.

You'll find that the side ap proach soon will become habit and you won't worry about the "ins" and "outs." Q. My face is so dry! I feel like my skin is going to shrivel up and crack off, but I can't keep my face covered up all the time. What should I do? A. Outdoor summer fun is hard on delicate skin, but that's no reason to hibernate from sun and wind! Just be sure to use a rich lanolated cream every night before going to sleep. Massage it in with upward mo tions arching from the bridge of your nose across your fore head. Then, with alternating sweeps of your palms, work cream up into your neck and from your chin to ear lobes. Always smooth upward. With index fingers, cream from the side of your nose out over your cheekbones to your temples. Then, gently pat cream around your eyes. Be sure to blot off the excess with Kleenex tissues to you won't get any on your pillowcase.

Teenagers Join In Beautifying Community A group of older Negro teen agers in the Lakeview commu nity just northeast of the city have shown what community spirit and action can do. Just recently organized under the encouragement of Miss Ro salie Duggins, one of the four •'VISTAs" (Volunteers in Serv ice to America) assigned to Ope ration Breakthrough, they busi. Ed themselves during the past weekend and this week giving new coats of paint to nearly 200 mail boxes in their com munity. Although the project was con ceived before then, it actually began taking shape with a dance held at Lakeview School by the club last Friday night. Using the proceeds' from the small admission charged, the club the following day purchas ed enough paint to get the pro ject well on its way—but not enough to complete. Funds from the dance pro ceeds were running low when a former city policeman who now operates a hardware store agreed to help the club by sell ing it enough paint at whole sale prices to complete its pro ject. The club's treasury re ceived still another "shot in the arm" through contributions giv. en by many of the residence whose mail boxes were painted. In fact, it is reported that the club now is considering paint ing the outer woodwork of the community's library.
