“Qaack Chatter ’
The regular business meeting of the
Quack Club was held Friday night at
the Y. W. C. A. with thirt; -five mem
bers present. The girls had designat
ed their meeting as a “Mystery Meet
ing,” and all members were expected
to be present, as the “Mysterious
Nine” would be there. Many of the
members came perhaps, because they
were curious to know just wherein
he mystery surrounding the meeting
lay. The “Mysterous Nine” turned
>ut to be tha nine members of the
Executive Coirimittee, and Miss
"ta-hel Taylor, “Y” Secretar . For
he benefit of the twenty new girls of
the club, the “mystery” of the whole
Y” set-up was explained by Miss
Taylor, who spoke briefly on the pur
ose cf the Young Woman’s Christian
Association all over the woi Id, depict
ing how we as Christian girls and
women, here in Omaha, are a very def
inite part of the vast Y. W. C. A. or
ganization. Lucy Mae Stamps, presi
dent of the club, addressed the girls
In a rather brief but tactful talk on
‘Why the Quack Club” and thoroughly
went over the Constitution and By
laws. Each member of the Executive
Committee was asked to take one par
ticular phase of the Quack Club pur
pose, and briefly point out the mean
ing of it, telling how and why it re
lates to our club. The speakers were:
Estelle Roberts, who snoke on ‘The
Promotion of Education’, Faith Pat
! terson, ‘Self-Expression’, Hattie Breck
enridge, ‘Fellowship’, Mildred Holman.
‘Wholesome Recreation’, and Gretchen
{ Selectman, ‘Helping each girl live a
thue Christian Life’. The meeting
was carried out exactly as the Execu
tive Committee had planned it, and it
was generally felt bv members of the
‘mysterious nine’ that each girl left
that meeting with a better undersand
ing of the ideals and purposes of the
Quack club, and will strive to carry
them out to the best of her ability.
In an effort to stimulate more inter
**st on the part of the club members
vHendance oins are beiner offered to
the five girls who rank highest in at
'■pndance during the club season of
1935.
The next meeting of the Quacl
Club on Fridav night, will be devoted

FACIALS FROM TEEN AGE TO
THE MATRON
Group 2. Young Women from 20 to 30
Years.
ARTICLE IV
Women from 20 to 30 generally
play much too hard, work too hard,
take things too seriously, or in other
words begin to realize they have emo
tions and ambtions and give vent to
them. They do not seem to want to
relax or rest. Therefore relaxation is
the main purpose of facial treatments
for women between these years.
In women of this group, we watch
for dark circles around the eyes,
drawn appearance around the mouth
the result of fatigue. With the cush
ion of the third finger the lines around
the mouth are given a vibratory mas
sage. The number of times depend
upon the depths of the lines. Of course
a special lubricating cream is used for
this treatment.
Io rel eve tension and relax tne
eyes we massage the eyes beginning
in the corner working over the eye and
down, then back to the corner. Then
with the tips of the fingers starting
at the bridge a rotary movement and
then a stroking is worked out to the
temples. Such movements as these
are extremely soothing and it is pos
sible to feel the patron actually re
laxing while they are being given.
This completes the movements for
the facial, but the patron is not ready
for the finishing touch until she has
had from ten to fifteeen minutes rest
period. This step is not given to the
teen age girl because she is too peppy
to be given a forced rest. After the
rest period the patron is now ready
for the removal of the preparation,
an astrigent is put on, then the make
up. When a woman from 20 to 30
is very active she should have one of
these facials every ten days or two
weeks.
