CALLING DRAFTED MOTHERS

By ERAINE TURIN Editor's Note: Mrs. Turin is a Coral Gables resident and mother of a draftee. She is an accomplished author and playwright, and recently conducted a radio program for the mothers of boys in the service. Today those who have little, if any, political or social "prestige," yet who represent the large majority of our civilians, realize, unfortunately, that their suggestions on correcting bad situations are permitted no recognition. As a result, they have come to a state of "helplessness." They are "helpless" in the face of pending catastrophes, while those endowed with this so-called press "prestige" too often misuse that privilege at the cost of jeopardizing civilian life and property. After these many months of warfare, our home fronts stay perilously unguarded—and particularly from the fire dangers which indenciary bombs can create. Draftee mothers of our nation, this "helplessness" obviously breeds dissatisfaction and hardly makes for unity. And when you consider for what your soldier sons are fighting—to protect a democracy, which is supposed to show no favoritisms to any—it seems to me that you alone can adjust this situation of "helplessness." For you come of every group of civilians. Some of you may enjoy that "prestige" while some of you may not. But all of you have sons in the armed forces; therefore, all of you are selfless in motive—no matter what your position may be. And if you will get together, you can accomplish that which others, more selfishly inclined, are less disposed to do. No one in a true democracy should be pushed aside; no one should feel "helpless"—and especially in time of war. We are being warned of the hazards which are likely to result from a total war; yet no palpable aid is offered us against such likely hazards. Those without "prestige" can do nothing about the issue, while those with this "prestige" are apt to consider promoting themselves instead of effecting a solution here. The other evening I saw a showing of a moving picture which was aimed to instruct civilians how to cope with the fire menace this war can bring. It showed that one type of bomber has nestled in its belly 2,000 incendiary bombs, which solely is effective to penetrate any kind of roof. Accordingly, it portrayed that each family should have two buckets of sand and a certain type of water shovel to keep fires from spreading. It also showed the necessity of owning two extinguishers—water, not chemical. Chemicals, as well as the flood of water, increase the power of magnesium bombs to burn. There was no showing, however, that this equipment would be forthcoming to civilians free. But how many can afford to buy this kind of equipment, which solely is effective here? Are only those whose purse will permit that expenditure allowed to safeguard their lives and property? England warned her people to the dangers of bombs, poison gas and shrapnel, yet gave them all the protection possible by providing gas masks, steel helmets and shelters. Now we are made bomb-conscious over here, but no equipment is offered. There is no harm to inform a sick man of the precariousness of his ailment when he is assured of a cure. In fact, to warn him, under this circumstance, gives such a person the power to help himself. No state of "helplessness" is in that situation. Drafted mothers of our nation, in like manner this wartime "helplessness" can be avoided. But to let the large majority of our people succumb to it kills incentive for working together—for assisting your soldier sons who require all of our efforts. And since it is in your province to awaken those who take advantage of their so-called "prestige," this column urges you to do so. For such "helplessness" disrupts that for which your sons are fighting; a true democracy where sound suggestions, not "prestige," should be given full recognition. (Copyright, 1942)

Glassed foods are aiding Uncle Sam today as the Government mobilizes the glass industry on a vast scale to take over the job of supplying the nation's housewives with packaged food. Vegetables, fruits, syrups, milk and hundreds of other products are glassed today in bottles and jars made by the new duraglas technique which insures lighter but stronger glass containers.

Fashion's decree for junior misses is "look smartest by wearing a hat."

This model is navy blue felt with a gold eagle centered front. Lenore has acted since she was five-is now thirteen.

Diary of a Beauty Authority

(In this week's column, presented as a special feature to women readers of this newspaper, Madame Rubinstein advances some beneficial facial exercises.) By HELENA RUBINSTEIN NEW YORK — I don't know how many times a week women come to me, lamenting that they neglected their beauty care in their teens and twenties and are paying the price for that neglect now. "I'm no longer young," they wail: "I didn't start my beauty care early enough and now it's hopeless!" If you are one of these women, don't despair. There is hope to make amends, although you will have double homework. You must give the danger areas—eyes, throat and chin — concentrated attention. But what a change you will see in time! In addition to a cleansing-softening routine and an emollient (night cream and chin astringent) you must add to your beauty routine: (1) a local stimulant and an anti-dry lotion; (2) facial exercises. After you have cleansed your skin, apply a local stimulant. Instantly you feel the blood rushing to the surface of your skin, working for your loveliness. This intensifies the effect of a chin astringent and the night cream which you apply later. Whenever you have a few free minutes, use a soothing, anti-dry lotion which is especially good for the eye area. Make eye compresses by dipping pads of cotton in the lotion, then place them over your eyes. Tie down and relax for ten to fifteen minutes while this lotion soothes your eyes and banishes the strained appearance around them. When you remove the pads, pat your skin with them so your entire complexion gets the benefit of the lotion. Let me caution you that face exercises require practice, but the effectiveness of facial exercises cannot be over-estimated! I have known women of forty and fifty who have followed these exercises faithfully and they have as clear-cut a contour, as bright a gaze and smooth an eye area, as proud and firm a throatline as a young woman in her twenties. The muscles of the cheek are mainly non-voluntary and it is necessary to exercise them to bring the blood to the surface. Blood helps to expand and contract the muscles and keep them firm and strong. Exercise 1 — Take a deep breath and hold it for a count of five—then blow out the breath vigoroulsy through the nose and mouth at the same time, WITHOUT PUFFING THE CHEEKS. Exercise 2 — Puff out the cheeks hard and, turning out the head slowly from left to right, blow little puffs, keeping the cheeks full of breath. A good alternative exercise to this is that delight of the younger generation — blowing bubbles. Exercise 3—Stand erect, shoulders back. Pugh chin as far forward as possible. Hold this position and move the jaws as if chewing, but drop the lower jaw as far as possible with each movement. With the neck still thrust forward, turn head to the right and then to the left, repeating chewing movement. Relax for five counts with head thrown as far back as possible. (If you have any personal beauty problems, Madame Rubinstein will be happy to answer them for you. Simply address Helena Rubinstein, care of this paper.) Next: How to Care for Your Hair at Home.

Mary Anderson, one of Hollywood's newest glamor girls, is pictured above in the kitchen of her Los Angeles home preparing a meal. Domestic as well as beautiful, Miss Anderson has equipped her kitchen with the latest devices for convenience. Her new canisters are of decoware, the newest in metal kitchen utensils. Peace and wild rose designs enhance the beauty of this new kitchenware. A complete emergency medicine cabinet is the pride of this housewife. Bottles of tanic acid for burns, rubbing alcohol, iodine, spirits of ammonia, bi-carbonate of soda, boric acid, collodion, aspirin mineral oil argyrol and peroxide made by the new duraglas technique to withstand heavy shock are essential. Bandages, triangular and roll, compresses, cotton, band aids and adhesive tape complete the list.

Hats for Spring Reflect Return To Sentimental

Remember the day, remember the hat. What woman doesn't treasure the memory of some extra special occasion—and the hat she wore that day? What man doesn't remember the girl of his dreams as she looked in her big-brimmed wonderful hat? There's more than protecting the hair — more than complementing the costume—in the wearing of a hat. Under the brim of a flattering—face-framing hat masquerades a touch of romance. Because a hat is so close to the face, it becomes an intrinsic part of the personality. A woman's hat is like her smile—it builds up and enhances her personality. But a woman without her hat presents to the world a negative quality, according to fashion experts. Men Know Hats Whenever men are put to a vote about the kind of hat they like best for women, five times out of six they vote for a hat that is definitely a hat—not just a piece of froth. They like a hat that "does something" for the wearer—that accents her coloring, accentuates her good features, and minimizes her less desirable features—though they don't reason it out that way. They only know they like a hat when it makes a woman appear more beautiful than she otherwise would. Beauty and romance are a part of the new season's hats. Sentiment is returning to popularity, and with it are returning hats of the fond remembrance variety—hats that strike a tender note. Some of the newest hats have wide brims which may be turned up a bit at the side. If not large, they may be massed with flowers for sentimental effect. Veiling and soft lines are a part of the fashion picture. Delicate colors which give a soft glow to the complexion are favored. Hats for Work Hats for walking and for work—hats with slacks and hats with sweaters—are not so likely to be of the sentimental variety. Pull-down visor caps, berets and sturdy casual felts that will fold
