should not attend movies because its
life is molding at this tender age, and
movies might become effective.

I’m bo sorry I was not with yon

valentine. Mr. Walter Moore won first
prize for men, Mrg. Sims won first for
Ladies and Mr. Jack Whitman won
the booby.
The last Saturday we went Up to
Mrs. Bessie Wilson’s house, 2812 Cald
well Street, for club meeting. We
had a nice time playing brdge. Mr.
Walter Moore won first prize for men,
Mrs. Orange Smith, first prize for
women and Mr. Charles Sims won the
booby prize.
Mr. Charles Sims may be the booby
but he sure is a loyal member of the
sick committee. You can prove that
by me.
The Fair Play Club wishes to thank
the Joyeux Bridge Club for the invi

Fechner Makes Radio Address
“The past two years—C.C.C. years
will be regarded by historians as the
brightest in the history of modern for
estry in America”, said Robert Fech
ner, director of Emergency Conserva
tion work, in a radio address over a
natonal network, in which he outlined
the conservation progress being made
by the C.C.C. throughout tthe coun
try. “The years of 1933 and 1934",
the director said, “will be referred to
as the years when the country defi
’’ teI-v turned its back on a policy of
allowing our natural resources to be
wasted, to one of planned manage
ment of our timbered areas along
lines which will result in their expan
sion, protection and improvement”.
Ii* rector Fechner recounted briefly
the growth of the C.C.C., since its be
ginning in the spring of 1933, of the
establishing of 1400 camps in far and
flung forests and parks of the country
in two months and the ideals beh'.nd
the gigantic conservation program.
He quoted president Roosevelt’s re
marks to the men shortly after they
were settled in their camps. “Through
yon”, the President said, “the nation
will graduate a fine group of strong
young men of clean living, trained in
self-discipline and, above all, willing
and proud to work Jor the joy of
working.”
Today, seventeen months later, I
have no hesitancy in stating that the
President’s prediction has been ful
filled one hundred per cent. We have
accompj.shed a huge amount of work.
We have graduated a fine group of
strong men.”
Nearly 1,000.000 men have been giv
en employment in the Forests since
the program began. 900,000 or more
are enrolled men, and others are army
officers, foresters, technical experts,
school teachers and skilled and un
skilled mechanics.

HEALTH,BEAUTY
AND CHARM
Keep Young and Beautiful—If You
Want To Be Loved.
FACIALS FROM TEEN AGE TO
THE MATRON
Group3—The Danger Age—30 to 40
Years
The contour of a woman’s face is on
trial between the ages of 30 and 40.
It is then that lines, unless they are
softened or erad cated, become chronic
and deep set. Muscles, too, begin to
lose their elasticity and droop unless
they are properly strengthened and
exercised. It is during these years
'that the contour of the face is pre
served or lost.
This 'is truly the danger age, and
I am not going to be secretive about
what should be done for the complex
ion at this stage. We must be on the
alert, first for deep creases in the fore
head, now exposed by fashion in the
new streamline hair dress and or the
face hats, 2nd, for drooping lines at
the corner of the mouth, 3rd, too pro
nounced character lines at the nose
and mouth, fourth, sharp frown lines
in the forehead, fifth and last, but by
no means least, the double chin caused
by sagging muscles.
After the preliminary cleansing and
simple massage movements, I begin
on the forehead, for it is there that
wrinkles first begin to appear, mak
ing women look prematurely old. For
this, I use either a massage cream or
muscle oil. With smoothing manipu
lation, I smooth out the lines, one
hand following the other. I then
stretch the forehead with the deep
center wrinkle between my middle and
fore fingers. With the forehead fin
ished, I work on the frown lines. They
are treated .n the same manner as the
forehead, with first a smoothing and
then a stretching and rotary massag
ing.
The eyes are next. I give them a
vibratory massage. I put in plenty of
muscle oil, especially if crow’s feet
are beginning to appear.
To build up the muscles of the
mouth, as to elinate a double chin, I
give muscle strapping exercise, doing
the double movement, that is, one tap
with the left hand and two with the
right, repeating several times. This
simulates the circulation, tends to
dissolve fatty tissues and strengthens
the muscles.
Rest period of relaxation for ten
minute? is very necessary for this
patron.
For this group I recommend a facial
every ten days, depend/ng upon the
patron s skin. It is also very essen
tial for patrons in this group to fol
low up the Beauty Salop treatment
with home treatment. I advise the
use of muscle oil. If any help is
needed, or .f you feel in doubt, you
may ask any question through this
column, or you may secure a free
facial at our salon.

NATIVE TO 6 MONTHS
Virgin Islands.—(CNA)—Leon
ard W. {McIntosh, an Island Na

convicted here on a charge of
larceny of government material.
The case was so (flimsy that
even the government attorney re
fused to prosecute McIntosh.

of the hearing, carried on the pro
secution, found the defendant
guilty and fined him $200. The
defendant was denied a jury
trial.
The indictment had been pend
ing for six months. McIntosh has
a wife and four children and has
been unable to get' work since his
conviction.
The American Civil Liberties
Union is investigating the case
