Grandmothers Prove That Old

Age No Longer Holds Terrors

~By HELEN JAMESON:
(Distributed by King Features Syndicate, i

Hooray for the dear old girls! They were like that when |

grannie was a be.le. Not a-tail.

Had to be dignified and state
ly. Just sat around, waiting to die. There~s No age limit. now
to activities. As long as one can keep on going, one keeps on

gong to town. It~s swell. Old age has no terrors if one doesn~t;

have to be an Alice-sit-by-the-fire. Grandmothers are holding down jobs, joining in the merry evening, dancing, having

fun.
Of course the ancients and hon
corables among us use makeup. Why

not? Remember the hue and cry
that went up when they bobbed
their hair? Or maybe you're too
young. The world was in a state of
frightful commotion about it. Short
hair was not respectable. Can you
beat that? What has the length of
hair got to do with character? Anyhow, the new viewpoint shows that
we're stepping.

SKINS GET DELICACY

There are complexions that, as
the years roll by, assume a satiny
delicacy. They are neither dry ~nor
oil. They lose the natural. tea-rose
tint~a blend of gold and pink. This
probably. is due to a slacking of circulation, laziness on the part of the
capillaries which, resting just beneath the surface of the skin, produce the rosy tone.

A complexion of that character
is improved aud enlivened by the
addition of a film of iouge placed
high on the cheeks. A rich damask
shade is better than faint pinks.
There must be restraint in the application, also careful blending with
powder so no clear-cut border lines
will be seen. We have no patience
with any face decorator who does
not endeavor to make a neat job of
it. The use of makeup is one thing;
the abuse is something else again.

The lipstick should be on friendly ecolor terms, with the acquired
plush. Vivid smears are fatal on a
face that has taken on tiny pleats
and furrows, as every woman of advancing years should know. They~ll
make her look blowsy and brittle
when she should appear sweet and
mellow.

SHOULD HAVE ORANGE CAST

The dark-eyed lady of olive complexion may find that her skin
grows even darker with the birthdays piling up. She is tempted to
use a lighter shade of powder, but
that~s bad beauty business. Her
~rouge and lipstick should. carry an
~orange cast if there is to be ~color
harmony.

For the florid skin there can be
no cut and dried rules. Some will
accept rouge, find it flattering,
Others get along better without
synthetic help. The seeing eye and
the mirror tell the story.

Complexion batik is not to be selected casually. In -some beauty
shops there are opportunities for a
try out and - professional advice
from facial operators.

Let Claire Tilden do your. ~figuring~ for you, if you wear size
36 or over! Her new Pattern, 476,
will figure on your budget as well,
because it Jaunders easily and
saves your other clothes. The
font buttoning set in the long
narrow panel gives you the slender
lines you need; and a center panel
repeats the effect in back. Those
bias side sections in the bodice
come below the waist in a downward curve front and back. Their
bias contrast would look especially
slim in checked or plaid fabric and
an optional belt may mark the
waistline further. An all-over print
on black is smart or you may emphasize the up-and-down lines of
this frock by making the center
front. panel and the revers of a
contrasting fabric. The revers
might be trimmed with buttons to
match. those down in front. For
at-home wear you'll want short
sleeves: if you make this dress for
street wear in a sheer wool crepe,

~lone sleeves are anpropriate. The

Should Exercise Special
Care In Makeup Of The Eyes -

Clear Eyes Are The Result
Of Plenty Of Sound Sleep

BY MARIE DOWNING

BEAUTIFUL eyes are not only
the ~windows of the soul~ in the

People look first into your eyes

end remember them longest.

Are your eyes as lovely as they
can be? Of course, eye make-up applied 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 0n
the shut-eye if you want pretty
eyes during their waking hours.
Next, avoid eye stain, If- you need
glasses, wear them~the old, ugly,
horn-timmed spectacles have siven away to modern glasses styled

~to add rather than detract from,

your good lcoks, Never read or
sew in pcor light, for you'll squint
ahd bring those aging little lines
around ycur eyes. The lighting
experts say at least a 100 watt light
bulb for readire' and close work.
It is also a good icra to wear sun
glasses in bright sunlight, but be

sure they are the grcund glass
variety, for poor sun glasses, which
distort the vision, are worse than
none at all,

EYES NEED CLEANSING

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
skin around the eyes is. different
from the rest of your face, Use eye
cream every~ night, smoothing ii
well up to the eye brow line ~and
well under the Icwer lashes.

As to eye meke-up Use your eyebrow pencil lightly, with ~short,
light strokes, avoiding a harsh,
heavy line. Chocse black or brown
aceording to the tones of your
skin and hair. Black for brunettes,
brown for lighter coloring, Choose
your mascafa the same way, and
use it to darken the tips of the
upper eyelashes, making them ap
pear lorg and thick, A Ys hand
with this, please!.

NICE IN EVENING

Eye shadow.is a nice evening
accent, when use sparingly. Just.
a shadow on the eyelid, right next
the lashes and faded to nothing._
