TO SIX LICKS AND A DRAG Last week in “Six Licks and A Drag” an untrue statement was, made concerning the Cyclops. I will quote what this columnist wrote—“They said last but not forgoten. Lost but nit found, saw but not seen her majesty, the Grand Duchess, Cyclops was seen strolling thriugh lovers lane with a number of lowly characters. Be cause it is a practice of ours not to reveal names for a personal reason, mainly liable suits. We' will not reveal our lucky boys but in order to be a true columnist a pure-soul of the type and honest to goodness Copywrite, we hardly thinking it is fiting and proper to be seen in a dryable position.” The above statement which I have just quoted evidently was supposed to be a lick to me. I question the above quotation very much. First I wisa to thank the columnist for the new title that has been bestowed upon me, I would like to ask this columnist when I was seen in lover’s lane? However I have rn ver been seen with lowly characters. I confine myself to the best Class of peo ple. And tto this fact I have nev er been in a dragable position.— And since you claim to be a true columnist and a pure soul of type and honest to goodness copywrite I think it would be fitting and proper for you who claim to be honest, to print Ithe truth. I hope you learn in writing your column to print the best things about peo ple. Do not try to drag other col umnists. It will make you ap pear ridiculous in (the site of the public FASHION PARADE Miss Rozella Thomas who is ^ strictly on the draped side. Wore a lovely new dark blue coat dress with stripes of many colors on the cillar and pockets. She carried a dark blue purse and white gloves and she wore a white hat and dark shoes. Miss Delores Williams was seen wearing a complete blue outfit. GLAMOUR GIRL OF WEEK Ruth Blanton. I am so sorry that I didn’t have YOU CAN BE ATTRACTIVE This week we are going to dis cuss yiur skin. Your skin is your autobiography. It is the tell-tale of your physical and emotional staminja. It is exceedingly res pinsive to initemal changes, func tioning somewhat like the kidney* and throws off 70 percent of the body's waste. Your skin depends largely for its beauty on internal regularity, but it must be kept ex ternally clean, softened and pro tected. Keeping externally skin clean is the most impirtant of the three rules- Soap and water can do a good cleansing job, but it cannot remove very well your lip stick, rouge and eye shadow. A cleansing cream is absolutely es sential. The ideal arrangie-meut, is to use soap only once a day and preced it with a cleansing cream. People with oily skin should use the liquidfying type of cream. Those who have dry skin should use the heavier type of cream. a longer column for this week but six licks and a drag: gave me a new name. I believe they called me the “Grand Duchess”. This was suppsed to be a lick, but it was quite a surprise. I was so elated and amaped. I was sur prised to write much this week. I’ll be watching you til’ next week.—“The Cyclops” or shall I say “The Grand Duchess” GROSS JEWELRY AND LOAN COMPANY formerly at 24th and Erskine St. New location 514 N. 16th St. Phone Jackson 4635 Birthplace of Japan According to the oldest historical chronicle, the Nihon Shoki, the earthly history of Japan began near the picturesque place shown above. It was known in ancient times as the Land of Hyuga, on the Pacific shores of the present Miyazaki Prefecture. H.I.M. Jimmu Tenno, Japan’s First Emperor, started from this point to unify all Japan. Shinto priests are shown on the stone steps leading to Udo Shrine, sacred to the memory of the first Emperor. Superfaltted soaps are best for any kind of a skin. You should use an emollient. Something a cream or a lotion which will return to your skin the oil which steam heat, cosmetics and modern diet remove. Remember your body chemistry changes, and the same cream you used last year probably won’t be the kind you should use this year. Please wash and cleanse your face before you bathe; the hath essence that steams so deliciously from your tub was not intended for your face and may I add neither was the bath soap. You should have a face soap an da nice bath soap un less you have a gentle bath soap then it may be used for your face. Next important thing is skin pro tection. Too many women consid er protection as essential only for the very old. Very young or those sad-eyed hypochondriacs who as sure you their skin is like tissue paper. The simplest way to blast this fallacy is to look at your skin of your body, (the areas which are protected such as your torso and compare it with unprotected, ex posed areas. The answer is ob vious protected skpn flourishes. If you have a young skin use a cream lotion which forms a prot ective film. If lines are beginn ing to insinuate themselves, use a heavier lotion or a thin foundation cream. Do not use (powder sus pended into lotions daily) Stimul ation too is essential for the skin the best method is exercise which not only flushes your skin with fresh blood, but induces sweat, which brings the oils in sebaceius glands Ito the surface and forces out accumulated waste matter. Massage if the back, neck and scalp is marvelous for the face, and also soothing to the nerves. DARING! SENSATIONAL! DIFFERENT!
