TWO MEDFORD (OREGOK) MAIL TRIBUNE Ttlity January . 1SS7 Housewife, Cold Cream Defended By GAY PAULEY United Pri Correspondent New York (U.PJ Hubby complains about her. Cartoon ists poke fun at her. But Flor ence E. Wall defends tha house wife who runs around in cold cream and curlers. Miss Wall said this woman is doing herself and those who have to look at her a favor she's working at the young look. Miss Wall, a cosmetics chem ist for 30-plus years, has no patience with the woman who "lets herself go around the house, and then heads for the beauty shop when she wants to make a killing." "That's expecting a miracle," said the sprightly Miss Wall, whose beauty credo is based on prevention. She recently became the first woman to receive the Society of Cosmetic Chemists' annual medal for contributions to the field. Florence Wall, a graduate of St. Elizabeth college, Morris town, N. J., and New York uni versity, has spent most of her scientific career in cosmetics. She helped to pioneer development of modern hair dyes; organized NYU's first accredited courses related to cosmetics: has taught cosmetology at NYU and other schools, and has written six text books in the field. She believes a woman should start preventive care of her skin in her 20's "certainly not later than the 30's," she said. "Neglect the skin and the fig ure when you're young . . . and pay the price later," she said, in an interview. "I believe in the retaining rather than restor ing idea." Her beauty prescription the combination of cosmetics and facial massage. And, with regu larity. "It is like the concert pianist who said that when he neglected practice one day, he could notice the difference in his playing," she said. "Two days, and the critics noticed. Three days, and the public no ticed." "The woman who 'uses cos metics has a better skin than the one who doesn't," said Miss Wall. "Even in casual application, there is some massage benefit." She makes no recommendation for specific brands of creams and foundations "none of them is harmful," she said. But she divided them into three major types: cleanser, which she said should not penetrate but "flush out" soil; emollients, which are the rejuvenators;" and the fin ishers, now usually liquid. Skin beauty also depends on diet, rest, and general health, she said. Miss Wall practices what she preaches most of the time. "Sometimes, I neglect mas sage," she confessed. "But daily cleaning is automatic. "I'm comfortably past middle age," she added. 'And for me, I don't think I look bad." Nutritionists Now Use 'Basic Four' For Meal Planning New York (U.PJ The "basic seven" of proper meal planning has been reduced. It now is the "baste four," with U.S. Depart ment of Agriculture approval. The Nutrition Foundation, a research organization underwrit ten by tho food industry, now lists the basic needs of each day's mesl as milk, meats, vegetables and fruits, bread and cereals. "This new plan need not re place others being used effec tively," said Dr. Charles King, foundation director. But he point ed out it was easier to follow. The basic seven, a guide to meal planning for many years included fats and sugars, and separated the fruits and vegeta ble categories. The foundation explained that fats and sugars still were diet essentials but usually appeared in meals in combination with appropriate foods anyway. "Most people use sugar in cof fee or tea. or on cereal," a spokes man explained. "And fats are included in such things as salad dressing." Enjoy corned beef hash at a mo tnpnt'i notice. Add 2 table spoons new moisture-free instant minced onion to a package 01 in stant mashed potatoes; cook ac- cordina to label directions. Then add 1 egg and a can of corned beef. Shape into patties and fry in butter or bacon drippings until golden brown.

Every physician has treated emotional fatigue under such names as chronic exhaustion, psychoneurosis, benign nervous ness, functional disorder, anx iety state, or neurasthenia. Ac cording to some estimates, as many as two thirds of all medi cal patients suffer from such dis orders or similar combinations of physical and mental disturb ances. Experimentally, fatigue can be produced in any normal person by lack of sleep or threat to security. Remove the obstacle, and recovery follows. Each case requires individual understand ing and treatment, ranging from actual change of environment to simple rest and reassurance. If, however, the disturbance is more complicated and of long standing, psychotherapy may be necessary. If fatigue has you in its grip, try to identify it. Where and why did it come to you? Is it physical or mental? Can you change it, or do you need help? If you indeed need help, seek aid quickly from an understand ing friend, a minister, a physi cian, or a trained counselor. De stroy this menace, before it be comes a pattern of your life. 'I'm tired all the time," com plains Sherry. "I can never get rested, no matter how I try." "I wake up tired, yawns Joe. "I get even more tired during the day, and boy, am I a wreck by night!" From every side we hear com plaints of fatigue. Even seden tary workers who expend little physical energy complain of chronic fatigue. We are a nation of tired people and seem unable to rest ourselves before the pat tern becomes a genuine disease. We are tired of traffic, of chil dren, of office routines, of pro fessional struggles, of in-laws, of finances, and of ourselves. In short, we are emotionally ex hausted. Life offer too many stimuli, too often unpleasant, to us. But my weariness is as real as the holes in last years' shoes, you argue. I'm used up and no doubt about it. Emotional fa tigue is genuine. It translates itself into aching muscles, pains, Visitors Leave For Coast Home Mr. and Mrs. Perry Evans.

Quickly Memorized Importer Distributes , New Smoked Octopus Philadelphia OJ.R) It tastes "almost" like smoked oysters and its flavor is "a little more sporting." What is it? Smoked octopus. Martin A. Dabrow (president of Penn Foods Distributors) hopes smoked octopus, imported from Japan, will have the same acceptance that fried grasshop pers have had. Never heard of fried grasshop pers? Dabrow's firm sold over 150.000 cans last year. Dabrow said the tentacles of the octopus are as edible as the ! claws of the lobster, "and more ; delicious. "I never sell anything or bring j it into the country unless I first eat it myself," Dabrow said "Smoked octopus tastes almost like smoked oysters, and its I flavor is a little more sporting." i A few years ago Dabrow im- ! ported fried agave worms (Guas- nos de Maguey Fritos) from Mexico. Although the worms ' didn't sell too well, Dabrow said, : he has built a substantial busi ness on other exotic delicacies. x Sri .'VP '17 1? pmmk I Holiday Visitor Leaves for Home; Son Visits Here Two visitors spent the holi days at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C.
