The Larieuif! Beauty Bureau was established by the {
Godefroy Manufacturing Company to study methods
of preserving women's natural beauty, and to make
the results of this research available to the public.
Beautiful eyes are not only the
“windows of the soul'7 in the poetic
sense, but they are your most im
portant beauty feature. People look
first into your eyes and remember
them longest
Are your eyes as lovely as they
can be? Of course, eye make-up ap
plied ever so deftly and sparingly,
does a lot to bring out the beauty of
your eyes, but that’s the last step.
First of all, clear eyes come from
plenty of sleep, so don’t skimp on
the shut-eye if you want pretty eyes
during their waking hours. Next,
avoid eye strain. If you need glasses,
wear them—the old, ugly, horn
rimmed spectacles have given way
to modern glasses styled to add
rather than detract from your good
looks. Never read or sew in poor
light, for you’ll squint and bring
those aging little lines around your
eyes. The lighting experts say at
least a 100 watt light bulb for read
* ing and close work. It is also a good
idea to wear sun glasses in bright
sunlight, but be sure they are the
ground glass variety, for poor sun
glasses, which distort the vision, are
worse than none at all.
Your eyes need cleansing too, and
a reliable eyewash belongs in your
beauty kit right next the mascara.
Powdered boric acid, from the drug
store, can be made quickly into an
approved eyewash.
” Now for the cosmetic touch. Eye
creams are important. They are
different in texture from ordinary
skin creams, for the texture of the
efein around the eyes is different
f
from the rest of your face. Use eye
cream every night, smoothing it well
up to the eyebrow line and well un
der the lower lashes.
As to eye make-up. Use your eye
brow pencil lightly, with short, light
strokes, avoiding a harsh, heavy
line. Choose black or brown ac
cording to the tones of your skin
and hair. Black for brunettes, brown
for lighter coloring. Choose your
mascara the same way, and use it to
darken the tips of the upper eye
lashes, making them appear long
and thick. A light hand with this,
please!
Eye shadow is a nice evening ac
cent, when used sparingly. Just a
shadow on the eyelid, right next the
lashes and faded to nothing above.
Choose brown or green eye shadow
if you are a brunette or have brown
or hazel eyes. Blue or violet shadow
are best choices if your eyes are
blue, violet or grey. For a heavy
eye make-up (and enter here at your
own risk, we think it smacks too
much of gilding the lily) black eye
shadow, mascara, brow pencil.
There! The eyes have it There
never was a man who could resist
a pair of beautiful eyes. They’re
keys to his heart for sure.
What are your beauty problems?

Beauty Bureau, 3509 Lindell

MY SCRAP BOOK
by LUTISHA—
SOMETIMES
If times are hard and you feel
blue,
I Think of others worrying too—
Just because your trials are many
Don’t think the rest of us haven’t
any,
Lfe is made up of smiles and tears
Joys and sorrows mixed with fears
And though life seems to us one
sided,
Trouble is pretty w-ell divided,
If we could look into every heart
We’d find each one had its part.
And those who travel fortune’s
road— ^
Sometimes have the biggest load.

this week, we’ll see what’s the
main spill that’s going on these
days aroun’ and about the Avenue:
in the hash joints: the drug stor

time of the year when the weather
is very frone and etc.
IT WAS MORE AMUSIN’ THAN
CONFUSIN’—
Why it should snow for the first
time on Halloween for a long time.
Many were surprised to see those
large white snowflakes failin’
down to the good earth. Although
some were almost praying that it
wtould quit, but mother nature had
better plans, and so it snowed a*l
night.
THE MIDNITE SHOW
At the Ritz last Saturday night
was tops, yes indeed- Why it was
jammed and everyone got their 27c
worth and you can bet everything
was on.
CALLIN’ ALL CARS— CALLIN’

women’s hearts. This time it was

DEFENSE NEEDED
Fighting on the streets has be
come youth’s ambition today. A
group of Nazi Germans attacks the
enemy and all of them beats him
up. That is exactly what happen
ed after the free dance last week.
It was the second gang fight sines
the other dance- Floyd Wtebb hap
pened to be the enemy. Altho war
is going on in the European coun
tries, and all of you boys have the
will to fight, including your draft
cards, pleaz don’t fight on the
streets or in Dance halls. If you
want publicity, the boxing ring is
yet open.
THREE IS NOT A CROWD
At least that’s what George
Station thinks. He is having a
heck of a time trying to choose
between M- J... and C- S- So he
paid both their ways to the dancu.
The only trouble was, he couldn’t
dance with but one at a time.
MAN ADVANCED
Viewing the situation from i
glance it seems that David Hughes
is second man to the major. At
last he has struck the luck with a
race business man for his boss.
OMAHA U GOSSIP
Well it seems that those qua t
ers are not coming in as fast this
year as those dimes did last year
The crowd all had comfortable
seats and the strutters that strut
around all night, had no hard time

; WEINER SHOP—
24th and LAKE ST.
Going north on 24th Street, w i
, find ourselves at the American
Weiner Shop. Just in time to se
a mix-up. A bad black thunder
boat with an 111, license drove up
'and two half high Cats entered
I this shop. The waiter with the
water took their order. Then they
decided to stand up by the dead
beat machine and lend the mus c
their listeners; then--the manager
ordered them to sit down! This
insulted them and after introduc
ing themselves os FBI. men, starr
ed after their shooting irons; but
on the second thought they spur
around the block, and came bad;
and spoke their peace. After the
scrap was over, the manager or
dered everyone out that was thru
spending their Uncle Sam. Whatta
world!!!
Until this time next week
