Kcnnell-Ellis Mrs. Horsfall Makes Visit State Regent of DAR Tells of Experiences at Na tional Meeting in Ohio By MRS. W. A. JONES Mrs. William Horsfall, Marshficld, state regent of the Ore gon Daughters of tho American Revolution, in a charmingly informal manner told of her experiences going and returning from tho Continental Congress of the National Society, held in Cincinnati, Ohio, during the week of April the nintcenth, and of tho proceedings of the congress, at the called meeting of Eulalona chapter, Friday evening, at the home of the regent, Mrs. Hurry Gocller Sr., 125 Pine street. Mrs. Horsfall presented to Mrs. Lloyd Goblc, first state vice-regent, the Jewel belong ing to that office, which will be worn by Mrs. Goblc dur ing her term of office. This vice-regent's bar belongs to the state. Mrs. Horsfall related stories of interesting contacts she made on her travels across the continent. One had to do with an American college bred woman who had lived for some lime In China and was made a prisoner by the Japs, was confined in a room with a glass front, with a grinning Jap always on guard watching her every move ment. She lost forty-two pounds In a few months while a prisoner, but was fortunate to be released when prisoners were exchanged. Another story was about a soldier from a New York family of wealth and position, who had failed to pass the examina tion for a commission, failed in mathematics, and was en route to Texas for army ma neuvers as a private. Ho was trying to write to tho girl of his choice about his failure but afraid to do so. There were two morals to this story: first, more stress should be placed on mathematics in our school, programs; second, if the girl is in love with the uniform instead of the man, tho soldier is better off with out her. According to the slalo re gent, the more than 130,00(1 Daughters of the American Revolution, are giving their best work to their govern ment, their army and their navy. The National Society has no other program for the duration, she reports, but to serve in every possible ca pacity to help win this hor rible war. Daughters have purchased bonds all over the country, amounting in all to hundreds of thousands of dol large; blood donations and funds for this effort have been given in vast quantities; hospital services in the inter est of the returned wounded soldiers Is being carried on with earnestness and devo tion. Mrs. Horsfall said "This war must bo won, and it takes all of us to win it." Also she added this thought: "Don't hesitate to read tho awful side of war. The more we know of the awful side, the more we will strive to help, and the quicker the war will bo won." Tho speaker gave high praise to the WAACS and the WAVES. The program for Oregon Daughters follows the lead of thp National Society, according to tho state regent. A beautiful tribute to the late Mrs. J. B. Montgomery, organizer of DAR In Oregon, was read by Mrs, Horsfall, s I and she asked the chapter to stand for a moment of silent prayer honoring the memory of this grand old lady of Ore gon. The meeting closed with the recitation of the Daugh ters' creed by all present. Mrs. Goellcr introduced the speaker. The Gocller rooms were decorated Willi flowers, with an arrangement of red, white and blue peonies cspc c i a 1 1 y effective. Assisting hostesses were Mrs. Bert C.

I'VE been writing about leg make-up and what it will do for you now I'd better say something about putting it on. After your legs are perfectly smooth (DuBarry Foundation Lotion or Special I Cleansing Preparation) ready for the make-up. Barry Leg Make-Up liquid type and should plied directly by hand. IT'S a good Idea to wet your legs first because the lotion ! will slide on more easily. Then j pour the leg make-up into the I palm of your hand and ing at the instep, smooth It on the leg with long, overlapping strokes. Blend it up and over, up and over. THE overlapping of each stroke is Important because in order to get that smooth, even look you have to avoid skin showing through. That's why you will keep blending it on your legs, even going over the same area several times with your hand in long even strokes. Then, when it Is dry, take a piece of cotton and simply rub off any powdery surface . . giving your legs a beautiful, dull finish. AND here's another professional trick I've picked up. After the make-up has THOR OUGHLY dried, you can even immerse your legs in a tub of water . . .and if you don't rub it but allow it to dry thoroughly again, the stockings will "set" on your legs. I've found that it is a smart idea to apply leg make-up at night before taking a bath just so it CAN set . . . and Incidentally, It WON'T come off on your sheets. DUBARRY Leg Make-Up is only a dollar for a big bottle (30 pairs of make-up stockings) and comes in two very lovely shades . . . Bronze and Tropical, so you can change off. There will probably be lots of questions you'll want to ask if you never used leg make-up before . . . and that's what I'm here for.
