Constant Exposure
Dries Natural Oils
In Milady's Hands
Because your hands are con
stantly exposed to the weather,
to dusty chores, or to water, their
skin is steadily robbed of its
natural oil, says the August is
sue of Charm, "the magazine for
the business girl." This oil must
be replaced in order for the skin
to maintain its smooth texture.
Massage your hands with cream
or lotion before and after laun
dering, gardening and dusting.
Wear loose gloves while you sleep,
and let your hands absorb a sup
ply ol rich cream at night.
Use nail cream or cuticle oil
on Hangnails. When you remove
harsh cuticle, approach the sen
sitive matrix the moon with
caution, for it is here that nail
injuries occur most easily.
Use only the shades of polish
that you know wjU be complexion
flattering. Rosy reds and deep
pinks emphasize the clarity of the
sKin; ournisnea red-browns en
rich a tan, Use the more deli
cate pinks on nails which are
exceptionally tiny. Be wary of
the red-black shades. Outline
moons and tips to make hands ap
pear their most feminine. For an
illusion of length, use polish over
the entire nail.

Dialers Deplore
Teen-Agers Who
Tie Up Telephone
By ALICIA HART
NEA Staff Writer
Some teen-agers spend their
evenings glued to the family tele-.
phone as though that instrument
had been specifically invented
for their use.
The thoughtless girl's chit-chat
that ties up the lines is a nuis
ance to her family as well as to
purposeful callers who squirm un
der the never-ending busy signal.
Telephone Manners
The girl guilty of these faults
needs to brush up on good tele
phone manners: Chain-calls are a
number one violation of the rules.
Etiquette requiresthatothermem
Etiquette requires that other
members of the household be giv
en a chance to make and break
dates, speak to the doctor, lawyer
or the grocer.
Coy time-wasters over the tele
phone should be saved for face-to-face
encounters. Voice camouflag
ing, cory "Guess who this is?"
routines are not only time-wasters
but can be a threat to friendship-
It's practically impossible to be
"cute" successfully over the phone.
However, the "voice with the
smile," intelligent, friendly and in
terested will get a girl places.
"Friendly" Treatment
No girl should be miserly with
this "friendly treatment." Her
parents' friends and tradespeople
will appreciate it, and she'll gain
social poise and the ability to be
at ease with all kinds of strangers.
Finally! Since any girl hits the
the roof if her telephone messages
are garbled or rendered unintel
ligible by the sister or brother who
errs in that department, she should
be considerate of other people's
messages. Keeping pencil and
memo paper handy by the tele
phone is one guarantee that a
message will be written down ac
curately on the spot and that it
has a better chance to be taken
accurately and legibly,

Chen Yu Presents
New Fall Colors
Chen Yu has brought out
twelve new shades of nail lacquer

range of fashion colors.

and leading color for fall; next in
importance is teal; then, deep
hennas, rusts, coppery tones,
browns, mossy greens and slate
blues. Olive green and navy also
look promising for autumn and
early winter.
All of which means that there is
no one nail lacquer shade which
may be worn with all the new
fashion colors expressed by the
fabric designer and couturier.
Rather, they say, you will choose
from the twelve new Chen Yu
shades.

Frequent Use Helps
Silver Preservation
It's a wonderful paradox that
nothing preserves sterling silver
like constant use, says the August
issue of Charm, the magazine for
the business girl. In the same
way as do fine woods and real
pearls, sterling silver develops a
patina, a lovely luster, in the
wear and handling.
Washing Important
Wash silver as soon after meals
as possible, because there are
some foods notably eggs which
leave marks on flatware. Salt
makes tiny black pits in silver, so
brush your sterling salt shakers
extra carefully after each meal.
Don't rub them, or random salt
grains may become imbedded.
Line your sterling bonbon dishes
with doilies before you use them
to serve salted nuts.
Between meals, store silver in a
woqden chest which is lined with
nontarnish cloth. Or, line a draw-
er in your dining room sideboard
or kitchen cabinet with a half-
yard of non-tarnish silver cloth
Simply place half the cloth in the
drawer, arrange silver on it, and
fold the remaining half over the
silver, Charm advises.
Cloth Bags for Storing
To store hollow ware, buy some
specially constructed cloth bags
like pouches, with strings at the
top. Or, make them yourself,
from non-tarnish cloth. Just
stitch a square bag in the proper
size, make a hem at the top, and
pull a drawstring through the
hem.
As a final word of caution: Be
sure to count your silverware be
fore you put it away. For al
though you can't possibly wear
out silver, you can very easily
deposit a knife or fork in your
disposal unit with the dinner
scrapings.
no extra cost for upkeep. A prom
ise of this good behavior for six

ly like a barber's pole in two
toned colors, such blouses were
designed to be the gay upper half
of pleated skirt fashions. Typical
styling of those is seen in the
solid color wool jersey skirt,
knife-pleated to look as straight
as a plumb line when static, as
fluted as an unfurled fan when
it goes into action.
Box-pleated skirts with ereases
that stay as sharp as a gent's
freshly pressed pants flaunt their
permanence in all-woolen clan
plaids. These invite both crepe
and jersey blouses and fleecy
reefers as campus companions.
Reefers in a choice of colors are
made to look their jauntiest with
hand-span pockets, slot openings
and gold shank buttons.

New Plastic Capsule Works Like Magic

A plastic capsule shaped like

The opposite side of the small
square gauze or flannel pad,
which when given a squeeze
breaks the capsule and saturates
the material for instant applica
tion, is a heat-sealing fabric of
matching size.
These liquid-filled capsule pads,
which also provide the traveler
with a skin lotion, a baby oil,
various medicants and salves
without adding the weight of bot

luggage, offer another advantage
