SHINING THING S.

I like shining things, wings.

When the sun proclaims a day new born.

something quite different from what i‘. did in the days when to be

ambition. Indeed, the very word "pretty" has been replaced by such terms as smart. good looking. charming, beautiful, exotic, in-

divldual-iooking, chic, trim and neat. " ’

Modern woman wants to be all

of these, of course. If she can't she'll take any one of them in preference to "pretty." ' _

As a result o1 all the talk about the importance of sleek coiffures, diets, tailored clothes and indivi- dual make-up, there are, as o matter of fact. few pretty girls. By this we mean the curly-headed. plumpcheeked woman who was just that-pretty and nothin! more. In her place we have the exquisitely groomed, simply dressed girl with haircut that shows the shape of her "fine head, a lust- rlght figure~not fat, but not flat like the past-war curveless bodice —and feminine appeal that spells beauty rather than more pretti- ness.

There always have been women like this, of course. but they used to be generously interspersed with pretty ones because pxettlness was the vogue. If you doubt that it isn't today. look at screen and stage stars whose looks and per- sonal appearance either set a trend or rdlect it.

Kay Francis certainly is lovely. but one thinks of her as beuatlful and smart rather than pretty. Contrast her with petite Mary Pickford of the regular features Who used to be considered one of the prettiest ‘girls in the world. Prettiness was important then.

Joan Crawford. Marlene Dietrich and Katharine Hepburn are to- day's beauties. Yet not one of them really is pretty. Joan's month ls too big. Marlene has hollow cheeks that make her interesting but never pretty. Katharine Hepburn hasn't a single really pretty fea- ture. Yet everyone of tho women is beautiful by modern standards.

FLORIDA MOSS I5 DY NO MEANS USELESS

Old Spanish moss that clings to the more than 15.000 live and water oak trees that add to the beauty of Orlando. Florida. is not as useless as it appears to the visi- tor.

Bunched, tit: grey moss has been |ut. to many uses in domestic life. some have found that it makes very good stuffing for mat- tresses upon which to sleep. . Architecture of small buildings has been given a unique touch with moss-covered roofs. Fences and walls have been draped with the Spanish moss. adding to the beauty of homes in residential sections of the city.

Probably the most ridiculous use the moss was ever put to was when a young Orlando miss tried it out as a bathing sult—but it did make a very attractive sun-suit! Children of Seminole Indian families in the territory find it lfmts the "fig leaf" for garment. and skirts have been the result.

Years and years ago, historians‘ tell us. Persian men and women cleansed their bodies with oils, in- stead of using soap and water for bathing purposes. Indeed. they used these oils so copiously that the Spartans contemptuosly as- sertcd they could smell a Persian 200 feet away. And that they weren't particularly fond of tho odor ,eitherl

Many women in this part of the globe seem to object to tho use of lubricants on their bodies- Thcy refuse to recognize the fact that the _skln of the body requires lubricating just as much as the skin on the face. A rough, flaky, itchy akin is anything but a plea- sure to possess. It may be suitable for a weather-beaten fisherman. but it's no‘. the kind that adds to any girl's charm.

And when the revealing beach season rolls around the girl who cares for her skin during the winter has nothing to fear. Oil baths should always be taken immediately before you retire at night. After you have taken your warm, cleansing bath, dry your body thoroughly with a flirkilh towel. Then smooth a generous quantity of warmed olive oil or evvcet almond oil over your entire body. You may substitute a good cold or nourishing cream Ior this purpoaqifyou prefer. Manage the chosen lubricant well into I your skin.

You would think to hear these wives talk that business was some sort of orgy in which men indulged, and that they Just simply had. the time of their lives slaving over desks, or wrestling with cranky customers, or lis- tening to sick people tau their symptoms, or whatnot.
