La-* Sunday he wa3 tollin’ about | science, and what I might be worked | out to increase Jo»- Serra our average life of 40 years, as it is now, to 70. And medicine and cience, he says, they are not bucking religion or vice versa. But while science, it is finding ways to prolong life, it also is findin’ ways of eliminat ing the human race—like poison ges: and such. So whm you leave the church, maybe you dor’t hav' the answer to everything or anything and aro even confused ,but pnrdner, you are liable to Vinda halfway wonder to yourself, on the way home—what is next, after 70.

And with competition being what It Is, you have to make the most of your possibilities to accomplish your end. While beauty Is not an absolute .essential to romance, it Is certainly a stepping stone, nnd with all the modern methods of gilding the Illy there Is no excuse for oeing detinlte ly plain. Unruly eyebrows can be put in line by a hit of expert tweez Ing, lifeless cheeks nnd Ups can be delicately tinted, tmd there are numerous coiffures to suit your par ticular demands. Colored polishes draw attention to carefully mani cured nnlls (he sure they are care fully manicured before you risk calling attention to then;). A faint eye shadow at night will make your eyes look larger and more lustrous. A dash of perfume behind each ear will add a mysterious aura to your comings and goings—provided it Is 1 faint enough to be mysterious and not so overpowering that It an nounces your arrival before you get In sight. However, when going about this program of self-improvement, re member that moderation is the key note of success. Beauty aids are aids only to a certain point. No man wants to be seen out with a i girl whose lashes are heavily bead- j ed with mascara, with eyelids so shndowed she looks ns though site were recovering from a severe ill ness, rouge standing out in glaring spots on her cheeks, and looking for all the world like a walking cos metic counter. Practice the art of make-up in front of a well lighted mirror. It Is really fun, and, once you have acquired the knack, you will be more than gratified by the results. You've got Spring in the con- J spiracy with you—April showers. May flowers, and all the rest. Jane Is only two months off—and June, I am told. Is the month of weddings,, Let’s see what you can do!

McNamara JOHN TASKER HOWARD, A.S.C.A.P., interpreter of current trends in American musical culture, occupies an outstanding position among contemporary men ot music. Author, composer,, pianist, lecturer, radio speaker, he constantly reveals a spirited nationalism born of pride 1n tile achievements of native American musicians. His zeal for historical accuracy has made him a storm-center of numerous controversies. It was his personal effort that finally settled the dispute over the’ birthplace of Stephen Foster, and indicated the restored musical shrine at Pitts burgh as the building that really cradled the great American com poser. Similarly he dispelled the myth of Foster's having written “My Old Kentucky Home” in Bards town, Kentucky. His encyclopedic work, “Our American Music,” and his biogra phies of Stephen Foster and of Ethelbert Nevin are permanent con tributions to the library of Ameri can standard literature. His musi Val compositions include orchestral [and choral music, organ and piano (pieces, songs, the music for Percy MacKaye’s folk-masque. “Wake field," and many arrangements of early American songs used In his radio broadcasts and lectures. Born November 30. 1890, In Brooklyn, New York, grand nephew of a namesake who founded Ply > louth Church of Henry Ward (Beecher fame. Howard first studied ■nualc with his mother. He left ‘Williams College after three and one-half years, before he completed work for his Bachelor’s degree. In 1937 the College conferred on him an honorary degree of Master of Arts. Brief experience hi commerce convinced Howard that music was his life work. He occupied editorial posts with musical publications, then began lecturing and radio work, and the writing of books and biographical pamphlets. His "Our American Music” is a standard reference work in schools and colleges. His library in his Glen Ridge, New Jersey, home is rich wilh rare historical documents bearing on the development of mu sic in America. Howard’s enthusiasm for modern’ music is stimulated by his associa-1 tions in the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, of which he has been a member for many years. More than one thou sand creators of music are included, in this organization, founded in' 1914 by Victor Herbert to protect] the performing rights of its mem bers' musical works. Howard’s writing and radio broad casts are prepared with meticulous care. "Hard writing makes easy, reading” is his motto. He has found that for each minute on the air. he spends an hour in prepara-' tion. Howard has five enthusiasms—he lists his family first (he personally teaches his daughter piano); then' come contract bridge, golf, cross word puzzles and his cocker spaniel, "Tucky,” an abbreviation of “My Old Kentucky Home.” But the driv ing force of his life is his national ism, his work for recognition of [ American composers.
