BEAUTY and FASHION HINTS Ann Watson Smitherman Summer is here, and the torrid days of heat cannot help but make you uncomfortable. Here are a few tips that will help you to en dure the heat and also keep you fresh and dainty. An extra shower, the splash of cooling cologne (instead of per fume) the fresh nylons and clean white cotton gloves, the mid-day flick of powder in your sandals, the extra seconds for holding hot wrists under the cold water tap after washing your hands are all so relieving. Try the new liquid deodorant instead of the solid form. Try Revlon’s fashion plate non-greasy creme face powder in stead of your usual powder. A lighter shade of lipstick for sum mer wear and by all means spend a little time on your toe nails be fore wearing your sandals. Fin ger tips, lips, and toe nails all in the same shade of coloring makes a good show at any time. Give your hair extra curl dur ing the summer months. The sun and wind is very drying to the hair and scalp. Brush it more often, wash it more often, and keep it oiled with a very light oil. -o GOP Still Silent on Negro Bills Sounding off loudly over the veto of their pet tax “slash” bill, Republicans are eloquently sil ent over bill that would benefit and protect America’s great minority group. For 15 years, the Repubicans in congress have been underdog minorities and in that time, they clamored loudly and long for the passage of the anti-lynch and FEPC bills. They blamed south ern Democrats for blocking the bills they had “nearest their hearts.” What they would do when they got in power with these bills would make the Demo crats look very cheap. With only a few weeks to go be fore the adjournment there is little likelihood that the Republi cans will enact any bill concern ing lynching, poll-tax or setting up an FEPC. There is no hope for them at this session. As one well known writer states, “_but now they are in majority, the Republicans are not so passionately eager to see these bills passed.” LITTLE REGGIE , By Margarita / YOU HAVE \ i NOTHING TO > - WORRY ABOUT, l i HISS GRAPEFRUIT, I ILL TAKE CARE g raft JITTER Ixv v ^ .w^\ V .w "x' vJ f^\wx\fil by Arthur Pointer BEAL BROS.
