American Women Neglect
Skin Care, Expert Warns
Bt gay pauIey
UPI Women's Editor
New York (UPD A girl's
face may be her fortune. But
many of us females aren't
collecting any interest on the
principal.
Ainslee Arenas, for 25 years
a beauty technician, teacher
and lecturer, says that neglect
cuts steadily into our "invest
ment." A good skin needs the
same careful watching we
give the bank account.
"All babies have beautiful
skins," she said. "But what
happens as we grow up and
older? It is a combination of
neglect and physical condi
tion - diet and general health.
Cleanliness is a basic rule.
The skin has an oily surface.
Dirt sticks to oil. Bacteria
breed in dirt. So: Pimples
and blackheads."
"Maintain - Don't Rebuild"
Miss Ainslee, as she is
known In the cosmetia indus
try, believe in skin "main
tenance." "If you maintain,"
she said, "you don't have to
rebuild. But some women
take 10 years to get a mess,
and expect miracles in a
week. It's like dieting. You
put on those pounds over a
long period. They don't dis
appear over night"
"This thing of sleeping in
cold cream all night is ridicu
lous," she said. "After 15
minutes, your skin's had it.
Or maybe 30, if you have not
been giving it daily lubrica
tion. "Start skin care before you
need it. After 30, daily
cleansing and lubrication are
a must. They'll keep you 10
years younger looking than
you are. At 50 you'll look 40;
at 60, you'll look 50. I think
the gain is worth the trouble."
The beauty authority says
that each skin has its own
special problems, and every
cosmetics counter is stocked
with creams and lotions to fit
your type. The general types

are dry and oily. She sug
gested a "balanced diet" of
lubricant first, non - drying
astringent second.
Like An Old Girdle
Young skin doesn't need a
heavy lubricating cream, she
said. The skin "over 45" does
"by then, it is like an old
girdle. It has lost some of its
stretch. The oil of the lubri
cant acts as a filler. You're
pumping temporary new life
into it." .

Suit Amazes
Russians at
Moscow Show
They did everything in Mos
cow but throw the suit to
the wolves and still it came
through almost as neatly press
ed as the day it arrived.
At the American Exposi
tion, the Russians found it
labeled a "self-pressing suit"
for men which holds its press
under any conditions from
sleeping in it to wandering
in a pouring rainstorm.
The surprised Exposition
visitors watched a model con
tort himself at the thrice daily
fashion show in an effort to
rumple his suit but without
visible effect. Most of the
watchers thought there was
a "trick" to it, according to
Michael Daroff, president of
The House of Worsted-tex,
Inc., and maker of the suit,
who attended the fair.
Rather than any "trick," it
was American fashion and
fabric ingenuity plus quality
tailoring they were seeing,
Daroff explained. The suit is
made of an exclusive blend
of dynel and worsted which
looks like fine flannel but
has special hard-wearing quali
ties. Thousands of American
men have already discovered
its "built-in valet" qualities
for traveling, office wear, or
in school wardrobes, he said.
The suit will be worn 126
times at the Exposition, thus
equaling almost a year of
ordinary wear. Neither the
heat, the hard wear, or the
contortions of the model have
put a wrinkle in this suit that
didn't hang out between wear
ings, Daroff reported. To the
Russians, he said, a suit is a
covering while in America it
is a badge of status and com
pliment. Accessories

Washington (UPD Diplo
macy still is a man's world,
but the females are moving
in.
The state department said
at present there are 2,494
women employed in its for
eign service - mostly secre
taries and other personnel
who back up the actual diplo
mats. The number of petti
coated envoys, however, is
relatively few: 298, which is
about 10 per cent of the total
number envoys.
To get in the foreign serv
ice at any level, a girl must
pass a stiff examination which
requires a well-rounded edu
cation. But there is no dis
crimination other than in mat
ters of assignment.
There are some "hardship
posts" in faraway places
where it is considered unlike
ly that a woman would be
sent, said a department spokes
man. But even here, the lines
are being relaxed; there is
now, for instance, a woman
on the staff of the embassy
in Addis Abba, Ethiopia-
Salaries range from $5,225
to $20,000.
And although there is no
differentiation because of sex
in hiring, there is one regula
tion; if a female career officer
marries within the service,
she must submit to resigna
tion "which may or may not
be accepted."
On the other hand, many
of the women who chose the
diplomatic service as life-time
jobs have risen to high rank.
An outstanding example is
Frances B. Willis, now ambas
sador to Norway, and with
31 years of experience. Miss
Willis previously served as
U-S. Ambassador to Switzer
land. m

Diamond Weave
Hosiery Shown
United Press Iniernaiional
Hosiery styles include a
wealth of diamond-patterned
weaves. For daytime, there
are crisscross patterns in
black, charcoal, brown, beige
and green. Evening hose com
bine black and gold diamond
point lace designs. Most are
seamless.
A variation of a blanket is
the latest cover-up for fall.
One St. Louis manufacturer
shows a plaid wool blanket
slashed in the center to make
a poncho for stadium and
sportswear. The poncho comes
with a hood and closes with a
slide fastener under the chin.
Flattened, it can be used as
a lap robe or blanket.
The poncho goes into lounge
wear for the indoors, too. One
manufacturer shows fringed
ponchos in vivid, striped cot
ton knits and printed cotton
flannels. They're paired with
solid color capri or toreador
pants.
The sweat shirt inspires
some of the newest campus
fashions. One St. Louis de
signer uses the pull-over in a
two-piece costume. The slim-
cut skirt is in wool tweed, and
the same tweed is used for
the front of the pullover; the
back and neck are wool knit.
The demure silhouette re
turns in fashions for small
girls. The "Louisa May Alcott"
look shows in tiny waisted
dresses, with large, puffed
sleeves; in ruffled pinafores,
middies, and princess styles
worn with black or matching
tights. t

First School
Largely Up to Mothers
By PATRICIA McCORMACK
United Press International
New York (UPD M-E-M-O
T-O M-O-T-H-E-R-S:
Your child's first day in
school will be happy or hec
tic; touching or traumatic.
The outcome depends on
how well you prepare him
for his entry into a new world
and his break from the old -home.
"
It depends, too, oh your
view of formal education and
on how you conduct yourself
when first you usher him in
to a classroom.
' Rebecca Adinoff Winton,
director of early child educa
tion for New . York City
schools, said teachers most ap
preciate mothers who bring
the child to the classroom
door, introduce themselves
and child, kiss the child good
bye and depart.
Mrs. Winton said some
mothers upset the apple-cart
by:
-getting nostalgic at sight
of blackboard and smell of
chalk. It reminds them of
their first days in school and
they can't pass up the tempta
tion to tell teacher all about
the way school used to be.
-insisting that teacher lis
ten to all the things that
Junior or Janie can do. Some
times, the history includes a
clinical report going back to
pre-natal days.
-telling teacher that she
has warned her child to ex
pect little pleasure in school,
making school and teacher
look like a boogie-man.
"That first day," said Mrs.
Winton, "a teacher must spend
most of her energy making
the children feel at home.
Teachers need a chance to do
their work well. They can't
afford to let the children get
a feeling that teachers is ne
glecting them
On the child's preparation
for the first day of school,
Mrs. Winton suggested that
parents' consider the follow'
ing:
The child should have
necessary shots given long in
advance. If injections are giv
en that first day of school,
needling and pain will be as
sociated with school in the
child's mind.
-Clothing should have but
tons and zippers that the
child can manipulate.
-Child should know his
name and where he lives. If
he has been going by a nick
name but is using a formal
name in school, let him know
what it is, so he can answer
the roll.
-The child should have
some notion about where the
school is in relation to his
home. Well in advance of the
first day, make a practice run
or two to the school via what
ever transportation the child
will be using.
-Tell him that school is
pleasant place and that he
will meet many new friends
there and that his teacher is
looking forward to meeting
him
-Tell him the teacher is a
nice person who is going to
help him to learn many
things." But don't be too spe
cific. School has changed
quite a bit since you were in
the first grade. Let the teach
er tell him what he will learn,
-Try to arrange for him to
have a preview of the class
room so that he won't feel
strange about the furniture,
the lay-out. Show him the
school-yard and tell him that
is where he will be playing
with some of his new friends,
Such preparation will do
much about the fears and
anxieties your child will have
in connection with the break
from home. Fears center
about his relations with other
children, his new physical sur
roundings and his teacher.
The child who is going to
school for the first time, like
all students, will need certain
things throughout the year,
For example:
three nourishing meals a
day; plenty of rest; love, con
fidence, and understanding at
home; time to play and -
time to study.
