Name 1— —— Address - How to Banish Oil From Your Skin Summer brings better chances for the girl with oily skin. Gradual sun-tanning will help materially. But don’t try to get your beneficial sun-tan all at once. It will harm you greatly. Exercise in the open air is also another a : d to ridding your skin of its excessive oiliness. If nothing else, at least walk a mile or two every day. Try getting up a little earlier and walk all or part of the way to your office. Fruit juices, salads and fresh and raw vegetables all are part of the cure. These things are plentiful and cheaper now. Include them in your beauty budget. Another simple but important part of the treatment is soap and water. Yes, fre quent washing of the sitin with lukewarm water and mild soap. This washing is not Clean New Fabric With Care To wash or dry clean —that is the ques tion. Phil Cooper, an eastern expert in cleaning for many years, gives a few use ful hints about cleaning the newer fabrics. "Marquisette needs very careful treat ment,’’ he says. "The fabric is processed • with a gum arabic in order to give body and stiffness. This gum arabic comes out entirely in washing and to a slight degree in dry cleaning. So watch yourself and don’t let a marquisette dress get very soiled. Have it dry celaned quickly be fore it must be given a long run in the fluid, then it will retain its original con dition. “If you must wash marquisette at home, first dissolve a little clear gelatin in the water and make sure there are no undissolved particles left in the water. After washing in this mixture, shake the dress well to get rid of surplus water and press it nearly, but not quite, dry on the wrong side, using a damp cheese cloth.” Another new fabric is called congo cloth. It can be successfully washed at home and also perfectly dry cleaned. “For washing, use very soft lukewarm or cold water. Add a small amount of soda to soften water if necessary, dry at room temperature and press 100 per cent dry," Mr. Cooper says. As to the printed and flowered cotton and linen material now being used for hostess gowns and so-called peasant dresses, Phil Cooper has this advice: "Trust them only to dry cleaning be cause they are dyed with a top dye which is not fast and likely to run or fade with washing. However, if you insist on wash ing them yourself, follow these rules and you may have fair luck. "Wash only in cold water with a-little vinegar or salt added to it. This will keep*he color from running. When press ing. be sure the washed material is no more than three-fourths dry. Press on the right side with no cloth, anc under no circumstances use any beeswax when pressing.” to form the Targeteer Club. Current popularity of air pistol shooting began at Florida resorts early this year, when many socially prominent vacationists discovered its fascination. Since then this type of shooting has won great favor in the movie colony on the west coast, it has been a popular choice at charity bazaars, hostesses have discovered it to be the answer to their entertainment problems, and many well known sportsmen have found it the ideal pastime for keeping their aim true. only cleansing, but it also is slightly anti septic and also mild and stimulating. Oily skin needs scrupulous cleanliness. If you use a cleansing cream or liquid cleanser, be sure to us an astringent or skin freshener afterward in order to re move every trace of oil from the skin. For powder base, select a slightly thickish lotion, the kind so often used for chapped hands. For evening and special occasions, liquid powder base can be used. Use a light, fluffy type of face powder, never a heavy type. SWING ON TO BEAUTY THERE "SWING MUSIC" in the air these days. Not from a night club orchestra but from the warmth of approaching summer and the excited new green on the trees. Swing yourself to health and high spirits as you walk along the street. Let those arms fly out as you step forward, hold the chin up. take in as much young summer air as your lungs can hold. Try it, you'll be amaied how the swing attitude will brighten your spirits. Or take a swing on the tennis courts. It there isn't one nearby, investigate. Nearly every town and city these days has a public play ground where there are first-rate courts. Call up the authorities and find out if you need a iicense to play. Get that license now, if one is needed, start looking around for friends to olay with—and start swinging toward beauty. Cool Fruit Juices Are Refreshing You’ll like these desserts built around fruit juices. They seem tc be perfect answers to the tired summer appetite. In hot weather people don’t want heavy desserts any more than they want heavy entrees like roasts and steaks. Something light and appe izing that won’t build up body heat and make the “dog days” seem even hotter than they actually are—which, heaven knows, is hot enough—is called for. So try some of these recipes and see if they don’t help solve that annoying summer-dessert problem.
