Well, here I om in New
York City. . . . Along with
crowds ond crowds of other
people. . . . And I've seen so
much ond done so much in
the lost couple of days that I
don't know where to begin!
GuvutX
FIRST I simply must tell
about my visit to the Hel
ena Rubinstein Salon on
Fifth Avenue. ... A com
bination of restfulness and
efficiency that is an education
to learn about.
A telephone call was await
ing me when I arrived in New
York. . . . Because Vance Vau
pel, manager of Currin's, had
acted on my plea to see the Ru
binstein Salon here, and had
written to ask permission for
me to go through the place.
Amy Blalsdell, who is public
ity director of the Salon and
of Helena Rubinstein, Inc.
called me twice, in fact, before
we got together. . . . And then
she trotted along while a lovely-looking
gal called Mrs. Schil
; ler showed and explained
everything on the different
floors.
(Later Miss Blalsdell told me
the gal really is the Baroness
Schiller, and is in charge of the
Salon during the absence of
Madame Rubinstein in South
America and her niece. Mala
Rubinstein, in Mexico.)
First Floor
The lobby entrance to the Sa
lon is much like any modern
beauty shop,' only somewhat
larger. . . . But when you get
to the waiting room beyond you
begin to realize that this is no
usual place.
The waiting room Is circular.
... In the center is a round
"banquette," ... A circular
seat of padded blue satin. . . .
The rest of the furniture is in
blue or white satin.
Big mirrors reflect beautiful
gold-and-crystal candelabra. . . .
And the room is quiet, restful
and just about sound proof,
even though the noise of Fifth
Avenue outside is tremendous.
Off to one side is a small
room where there is a polaroid
machine to diagnose skin, and
on the other side a reception'
ist's office.
Second Floor
An elevator man called Leon
takes you upstairs to the floor
where the Five Day Wonder
Course is given. . . . And there,
for only $15, you can go to
school for two hours a day
(there are morning, afternoon
and evening classes) for five
days, to learn skin care and
make-up for yourself, posture,
exercises, hair styling, voice
correction, fashion lines, diet,
and a score of other things. .
All of which you are supposed
to continue doing at home to
make yourself over Into a more
attractive person.
There's a voice machine,
Which you talk into, and a rec
ord plays your voice back. . . ,
Another polaroid machine for
skin diagnosis. ... A doctor's
examining room. ... A Little
Theatre which is used also as a
gymnasium, where lectures are
given to gals from high school
age on up. . . . And dressing
rooms and showers.
Third and Fourth Floors
These contain the offices and
we skipped them. ... I had al
ready been on the Fourth Floor
to meet Miss Blaisdell. . . . And
anyway, Mrs. Schiller said
"They are seemeelarr to anny
ah-ther offeeces."
- Fifth Floor
This is where the actual
treatments for the face and
body are given. . . . Feet, too.
One room interested me tre
mendously. . , . And Miss Blais
dell said she had been to just
about all the salons and was
sure there is no other room
like it.
It is the Suntan Room. . . .
Where you He on a bed of sand
which is heated by infra-red
rays, while ultra-violet rays are
reflected up to a , spun-aluminum
ceiling and then back in
directly on your body . . . All
very healthful, especially when
you also have a massage dur
ing the treatment.
Another room on the same
floor is a kind of bathroom. . . .
With a huge gorgeous tub
where you lie in Rubinstein's
Pasteurized Milk Bath and get
invigorated while your skin is
cleaned out thoroughly.
Another room is fitted up to
prepare you for a massage. . . .
You lie on an electrically heat
ed pad and are covered with a
hood heated by infra-red rays.
... Your muscles relax and the
massage does more goodl
There's a smaller gym here,
too. . . A lot of Rubinstein's
I a IV I

Mantka
SHOPS in
NEW YORK
famous Lithe-Lines were hang
ing there, and Mrs. Schiller
said they are the basis of all
exercises in the Salon.
I haven't room to go into too
many details, but I mustn't fail
to mention the dressing rooms
fitted with day and night lights,
so you'll get the right make-up
before you leave!
Sixth Floor
This is the hair department.
. . . We accidentally broke in
on a distinguished-looking wom
an with a hair net covering
new pincurls . . . Miss Blais
dell told me her name (which I
forget) and said she is a photog
rapher for Vogue.
Anyway, besides getting your
hair done, you can get a pedi
cure, manicure, scalp treat
ments, etc.
Roof
I think we skipped several
floors, but by that time I was
trying to absorb so muqh in
such a short time that I forgot
to ask what was in between.
On the roof is one new de
partment you'll be Interested
in. . . . It's where you can
learn how to apply leg make-up
and how to take the hair off
your legs most efficiently. . . .
It's new this year.
I was interested in the lunch
time class. . . . Business girls
can take the leg instruction and
eat a box lunch furnished by
the Salon during their lunch
hour.
In another room In this pent
house, Mrs. Schiller teaches in
dividual make-up so you can
learn what's best for yourself
and keep up the food work at
home.
- The Whole Building
I was on five different floors
of the Rubinstein Salon and
was impressed by three things.
. . . The efficient set-up and the
restful decorative scheme, with
just enough beautiful paintings
and statues. . . . And the fact
that Thelma Davis at Currin's
For Drugs in Klamath Falls
knows a tremendous amount
about skin analysis and treat
ment!
CjancelcMti
IN Chicago we dashed through
Marshall Fields so fast that
my foot almost gave out . . .
The one I broke last March,
vou know... But I simply
had to see this huge department
store from top clear down to
subway walk.
But during my rush through
the china department I stopped
short at the sight of a display
of Franciscan china. ... It was
very importantly set out, all by
itself. . . . Seven patterns. . . .
All of them lovely.
This is the new china that
Garcelon's carries, you know.
Since I've been in New York,
I have had time to go to only
one department store, and that
was Bloomlngdale's. . . . Most
of them are closed on Satur
days, so I couldn't shop that
day.
At Bloomlngdale's a very nice
salesgirl showed me all that
was left in the store of Francis
can china. ... A tea set in the
Gold Band pattern. . . . She
said that there was such a rush
on Franciscan china late this
Spring that the store was vir
tually sold out. . . . "And ship
ments are so slow from the
west, you know," she moaned.
. . . The same old story!
Stadia 0 Beauty
THE popular hair-do on the
Atlantic coast is an up-do.
. . . And it's just about ne
cessary, because of the
neat. . . . Aimougn u
would look just as nice any
where. Fern Short at the Studio of
Beauty told me to bring her
back some ideas, so I'm going
to tell her about this one. i . .
There's a way of fixing several
combs on the back of your head
that will keep short hairs up.
. . . And really looks slick.
I tried In Washington, D. C,
to buy somo of these combs but
the heat wave there had sent so
many gals to the up-do that
every store I went to was out
of them in the color I wanted.
So I'm going to try to get
l". ' "v. i
some in New York.

Letter From "Down Under"
Describes Queer Scenes
In a letter to his mother, Mrs.
Kathryn Washburn of 352 North
Eleventh street. Corporal A. F.
(Floyd) Washburn describes Aus
tralia. Parts of the letter follow:
"I have come to the conclu
sion that at least Australia is
personification of individualism
and I came back just a little fas
cinated. After leaving the thickly popu
lated sections, you're in a land
so quiet and peaceful a person
just can't keep his mind on the
war at all. Deep-green grass
everywhere. Eucalyptus trees,
gum, and an occasional grove of
palms, and of course many others
whose names I wouldn't know.
Of course there are cattle sta
tions (ranches), farms and or
chards here and there but mostly
cattle as far as I could see.

i was to give tne teapot of an
engine a chance to catch its
breath. Anvwav. whpnevar It
did stop we would get out and
stretch (after all we were guard

bit. Well, the engineer would
always mow uie whistle and
Dresentlv hern (heir rami with
whine like an Alra Cobra. They
woum drop whatever they were
doing or whoever they had in
their clutches and fly merrily
away to watch the train come in.
or perhaps It was our fresh Yank
blood. They were as happy as
bird dogs. Some sat down, on
us, on tneir tails, and some stood
on their heads and for the life
of me I couldn't remember
which kind was which. If my

have a guilty conscience that
was a dirty trick.
