“Life is a blend of the good
and the ill, and we must bear
what shall come by His will.
There must come tears to the
brightest eyes, care visits the
rich and the st rong and the wise,
No one escapes when the rain
pelts down, today you may
smile, but tomorrow may frown,
So stand to your portion of
sorrow and strife, and know that
it Is all in the battle called -
Life.*'

Your professional beautician
knows the answer...
Why does some hair
break off when combing?
.Your hair is precious and delicate... and none of us like to see
it break off for any reason. Scientists tell us that excessive use
of hot combs and over-processing of hair with chemicals often
are major causes of brittleness resulting in hair breakage. But
hair that is naturally curly and tangles easily frequently breaks
off in everyday combing. Notice how irritated your scalp becomes
when you comb in contrast to the way your beautician does?
Your professional beautician knows that curly hair mats and
tangles so easily that it should be softened before combing.
Otherwise, unnecessary irritation to the scalp and damage to
the shaft and ends of the hair occurs. To achieve this needed
softening and a temporary relaxing effect that prevents break
age on alt human hair (including wigs), most beauticians rely
on Clairol® Hair-So-New® spray-on creme rinse. For combing
ease and for beautifying your hair in many other ways, trained
beauticians stock a complete family of fine Clairol products for
your specific needs.
Visit your expert hairdresser, who cares about your hair care
and your comfort. Whatever the nature of your hair problems,
only your professional beautician knows the answer for sure.

THE LEISURETTS
Mrs. Geneva Brown’s
on E. Lenoir St. was the set
ting for the third meeting this
fall for the Leisuretts, who met
Thursday at 11 a.m.
As the members entered the
house, each carried her pack-
age and put it into the box that
had been prepared as a cheer
box for a needv family.
The devotional period con
sists of a Thanksgiving song
and with each member saying
a Bible verse which had the
words 'Thanksgiving or praise’
in them, afterwards silent pray
ers were offered for one of the
sick members.
The business part of the club
consisted of minutes read by
the secretary, Mrs. Marie Hill,
a discussion of their Dutch
party which the club has each
year in December. Each mem
ber tells the secretary what she
will bring so there won’t beany
duplication. During this period,
the members drew names so
they would know with whom they
would exchange gifts
Christmas.
The members were happy to
have Mrs. Addle Harris back
with them after an extended
illness, but very sorry to know
and report that Mrs. Mary Cul
ler is sick.
An interesting game was
played. Three members tied
their scores and each received
a prize. They were: Mesdames
Clintie Ligon, Garnell Watts
and Mae Ligon.
