That Body Of Your:

By James W. Barton. ILD.

TEE EMOTIONS CAUSE SOME SKIN AILMENTS

Most of us think of the skin as just a. covering for the various organs and tissues of the body. As I matter of fact, the skin is an organ and just as important to our health as other organs of the body.

The skin contains the sweat glands that help regulate the tem- perature of the body, the oil glands which keep it soft and pli- able; it records various sensations from the nervous system and brain -cold, heat, pain-and is supplied with all the various body tissues found in other organs. There is muscle. nerve, fat tissue and abil- ity to hold sugar-energy-for fut.- ure needs.

In The Canadian 'Medical Assoc- iation Journal, Dr. D. Cappon, Toronto Psychiatric Hospital. states that "if we stop for a moment to think about the skin, we recognize that it is the 0l')JOCllVC visible part of the human being who hides the mysteries of his body underneath it. It is the physical boundary be- tween oneself and Lhe outer world.”

In addition to the physical sen- sations-hoat, cold. pain-it has mental and emotional functions; it provides a means of communica- tion between the inner and outer worlds of the individual.

The skin shows outward signs of inward disturbances. which. help the ph,iSlClall in making his dia::- nosis and pi-cscribiiig treatment.

There were letters, but Elizabeth wanted a bigger share in the war. Finally, she broke down her fath- erls oppositon and. at 18, went to camp in the Auxiliary Transport Service.

Withotit ballyhoo, she learned to take apart, repair and drive a three-quarter-ton truck. Under a liberal coating of grease smudges. Elizabeth thoroughly enjoyed her new role and felt she had honest- ly earned the right to her uni- form.

0 O I

To celebrate the finish of her driving test. she drove her truck to London with her instructor. After circling Piccadilly Circus twice, she roared down the red- macadamed Mall and through the main gates of Buckingham Palace with the klaxon blaring full blast.

The armed guard didn't know

The King and Queen admired Philip for his achievements as a Naval Officer. for his keen mind. and perhaps most of all for his integrity in maintaining strict ai- lence-even among his closest friends-about his feelings for El- izabeth.

Nevertheless her parents were conscious that Elizabeth had never had a real date like any normal girl of her age in any other coun- try. They felt she was too young and had too little opportunity to meet people of her own age group on common ground.

It was not until after VJ-Day, when she was l8-and Philip had been reassigned to duty in South- east Asla-that Elizabeth was al- lowed to take part in London's social whirl. She was able, for the first time, to dine in a public rest-

tough enough for them when Elizabeth was in the public view only on official occasions. Now that she was in the social whirl it was worse. Only as individuals among a crowd of young social- ities could they be together at all. At that they had to appear completely disinterested. Even a privately shared .l0'-46 hlid L0 be treated with decorum. For a. couple to whom laughter was as natural as breathing, this. in it- sen, was a major problem.

Elizabeth declared later: "It was marvelous! First we shouted for mummie and papa. then we cheer- ed them when they came out.”

Elizabeth and Philip had seen each other fairly frequently in the last few months of the war.

Philp had acquired a fast black automobile, referred to by his American Navy friends as "The Royal Hot-Rod", and whenever he could wangle leave from his tem- porary duties as instructor. he would burn up the road to Lon- don or Windsor to visit with the Royal Family.

It was obvious to the family that Elizabeth and Philip were in love, but the subject of possible mar- rlage between them was never op- enly discussed.

Modern Eiiqueile

By Robert: Leo

Q. Would it be all right for me to give a shower for my nephew's fiancee? she is a stranger in town. and none of our friends or rela- tives have met her as yet. A. Not a. shower. Guests should never be asked to bring presents to one who is a. stranger to them. on the other hand, it would be very nice for you to give ti party (not a. shower) in honor of the girl. for the purpose of introducing her to your relatives and friends. Q. How does a married woman sign her name to ai telegram ask- ing for reservations at a hotel? A. She must include the "Mrs." with her name. so that the room clerk will know how to address her when she arrives at her deo- tlnation. Q. What is a good fruit course to serve for luncheon? A. The most popular fruits are grapefruit, melon. or a mixture of fruits cut into small pieces.

.. ,., . 6 l-2-inch slices bread; hree tablespoons butter.

"PRINCE Wl'l'll0UT-.l-NAME;" While Elizabeth was having her first social season. Philip was in Asia on the staff of his uncle. Lord Louis Mountbatten, who inspired his naval career.

On the rare occasions when they dared dance together Elizabeth and Philip would fix-it through one of their closest intimates for the band to play the "Oklahoma" hit tune, "People Will Say We're In Love."

That lyric-which both knew by heart-became the theme song for the sad little Princess and her Prince without-a-name.
