We live a carefree, careless existence In the summer and often fail to take even the simplest precautions to preserve our beauty. It is usually so hot that we let our beauty routine slip and as a result we end up In September looking thoroughly unkempt und It takes most of the winter to get hack In condition. Keep Hair Clean Hair, to he beautiful, must he healthy and healthy hair must be clean and well-brushed. To save yourself the added chore of recondi tioning your lmlr In Hie fall, work out a routine of care and stick to It. Select the best time of day to brush your hair and keep at It sys tematically regardless of the tem perature. Shampoo your lmlr as of ten ns necessary. Don’t think Hint because you washed your hair every two weeks in winter, once every two weeks will he sufficient now. Your hair gets hot und sticky In summer and needs to be washed oftener. The simplest hulrdress looks well if your hair Is Immaculately clean. If your hulr Is naturally dry. you may find oil shampoos beneficial, es pecially during the summer months. Sun mid wind are drying to the hair und scalp, at best, and if your hair is dry to start out with, the results may be disastrous. It is a wise rule never to go out in the sun without a hat or some sort of covering over your head. The sun has a tendency to bleach and streak the hair, mak ing your "crown of glory” look for all the world like u tabby cat. * Reconditioning Suggestions Tf my warning lias come too late, • however, here are a few suggestions which may help repair the damage. Olive oil is tin effective and Inex pensive aid to parched scalps. Rub it in the scalp and leave it in over night for the best results. Then, If your hair 1ms become streaked from over-exposure to the sun, a good hair coloring will quickly re store it to its original shade. Be sure that you select a coloring that exactly matches the original shade so Hint as your hair grows in you will lie unable to distinguish where the coloring stops and your natural colored hair begins. Remember that soft, gleaming linir is one of the greatest assets a woman can have. Don’t spoil your chances by failing to tuke the proper precautions. What are your beauty prob lems? Write Marie Donning, Larieuse Beauty Foundation, Room 321 — 319 North Fourth St., St. Louis, Mo., and she will be glad to answer them. Be sure to enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope. 4 ■" ... Opals For Luck By Ann Joyce They were both young and evli dently very much in love, these tv,4 prospective customers who werf .looking over the display of scan kplns st Stows A Wells JewelrJ I store. "Oh, John, there’s s beauty 1' exclaimed the girl. "Tbs one wltl tbs pearl setting." "But look at the one next to it Alice," replied the young man "Why. It's alive! It'a on fire!" “Of course It Is, John. It’s an opal. But you don't want an opal Bad luck, you know. The young man Jaughea. “There’s no such thing, dearest Not sines you're wearing my ring. Ah, there’s Mr. Stowe." "May we see that lovely pearl pin in the case?" Alice requested. "I wan* to buy one for—” “For me,” finished the young man. “Yo. remember. Mr. Stowe, you sold me s solitaire the other day." "And I'm wearing it," laughed the girl as she (tripped off her glovo. “But about the scarf pin. John. Don't you like the pearl setting? "I prefer the opal, Alice, uut year choice le mine.” “Both the same price," the Jewel er told them. "But an opal, John! I’ve always heard—” “NonEense, dear. Is there really any bad luck attached to an opal, Mr. Stowe?" "Absolutely none," replied the Jeweler. "And there’s no store more—alive, ae you put It. Tra pearl pin la beautiful, too, but some foolish people say pearls mean tears. Both superstitions.” "Ws’ll take the opal, Mr. Stowe.” decided Alice, "and defy the bad luqi.” “If you never have any more bad luck than tbla opal brings you. young people, you’ll never have any,” remarked Mr. Stofte as be wrapped up the flaming jewel. — It was soon after the purchase of the omjl pin that thing* began to happen! — First Alice lost ClyUe, her Pek inese. Clytie was returned after a few days but those few days were harrowing onea for Alice. An engagement present from a rich sunt was broken when It ar rived. Secretly Alice was g ad. ,, Then her aunt sent her a check i Instead when she heard of the acc’. dent. The* came a near accident with her car. Not a real one hut near enough to cause Bob, her brother, to advise her that being in love waa no excuse for falling to watch the traffic lights.* The climax came when John to'.d her one evening that the. paper he waa working for was to cease pub lication. "It’g that opal, John!” exclaimed Alice. "Things have gone wrong ever since I gave it to you." "Nothing stayed wrong, dear.” re plied John, "but If I thought the opal was up to any tricks I’d get rid of It much as 1 like It. It’s so full of flashes of light and beauty —;uet like you.” "Try It anyhow, John,” begged Alice. "Maybe I’m Just silly, but let’s see.” When John came again the ex ‘‘JITTERBUGS” NOTHING NEW “Swing” music and the “jitter bugs” dance are 'hand-me-downs from ages past rather than pro duets o? the machine age, say experts on music and dancing at the University of Omaha. “ ‘Jitterbugging’ is nothing more than a reincarnation of old folk dance forms,” Miss Ruth Diamond head of the women’s department of physical education, said today. “The open dance position used by ‘jitterbugs’ is the old fashioned polka reborn. A very fast taming variation of this in which the dan qulslte stone of Are and light wae ' no longer In evidence. Instead he wore a somber dark pin in his tie. Alice looked at It sorrowfully. ‘Til have to buy you some bright ties te cheer things up a bit," she sighed. “Now let's see what hap pens." \ Alloa's girl friends gave her a euowar soon after, then a lineal! shower. Her rich aunt sent her eome old family silver. Her father gave her an extra check, "Just for luck" he said. Even Bob took hex out oa the golf links explaining* "John** such s crackerjsc* golfer you ought at least to know * mrjhJ# (rom a caddy.” Then JoTin came In one evening with two theatre tickets, a bunch of vlolete and a smiling face. a ‘‘Honey, I’ve got a Job—a better one than I bad. I told you mg «wae ceasing publication. thfl'l because It and another one hare been merged. I'm to be In on the combination with a better salary. Bo corae along. We’re go ing out to celebrate.” Alice w as half laughing and halt crying ea she pinned on the violets. “Now, John, will you believe la opals bringing bad luck? As soon as you got rid of that pin our luck changad. That dark pin was ugly hut It did the trick. Why aren't you wearing it?” “I shell If you say so,” answered John, “Tt I can etop laughing long enough to get It out of my pocket. Here It la ” l "Out. J hn. thle Is the opal pin. I don't understand.” “I’ll explain, sweetheart Ton know I don’t believe In opals bring ing bad luck. So 1 had Ned Lodqr* an artist fellow I know, daub soma dark oolor over this one eo It couldn’t be recognized. I've really, been warn Ing It Just the same only under a cloud as you might say.' Things h*ve been coming our way lately aad today when I found out about si new Job I took the pin back to Ned and bad him clean tt up. 8o here Is my opal, lovelv as. ever, wt.L all the bad luck or good luck Intvt May I wear It now. AH«er "TTf cj. rse, you silly darling, laughed t 'Ice. “No, I'm the silly one. Whj. now I Just loy# that bemtlHl t pal." •• Wa'lt have to tell Mr. Stowe, tM jeweler all about It," said Jobs* “It wotjt ts long bsfors ws’11 hard te ecnet R him as*l*—about a ret* dW»« ttww" :ers sometimes dance apart and then come together again, is a bouncing polka which was done by the modem jitterbug’s grand parents.” Asserting that the "jitterbug” is a problem for psychologists to explain Mr. Martin Bush, head of the University of Omaha depart ment of music, declared that “swing” music, like “jitterbug” dancing, is centuries old. Mr. Bush scouted the notion that “swing” is a serious vival to what he calls “good” music. “Swingers of tunes are not taken any more seriously by musicians than the average adult gets excited over the small boy who rings the door-bell and runs.” -0O0 EDGAR BROWN FIGHTS ON FOR NEGRO ARMY FLIERS Wsshingiton, D.
