Gel Teen-Ager Down

By Ida .

Skin blemishes of some sort plague close to 90 percent of you teen-tigers. If acne is your beset- ting trouble. take a healthy ap- proach to the problem. Realize that acne is a self-limited condition. That is, after a certain period, it gradually disappears in most cases.

In the meantime. you can help yourself best by keeping your skin hygienically clean. in fact. thor- oughly cleansing your face with soap and water probably does more than any other one thing to im- prove the condition. It's important to avoid soaps with a high fat con- tent. Dermatologisis recommend soap containing hexzicliloropliene. an antiseptic ingredient found in

lthe deodorant type soaps.

At night lather your fare well. gently niassaging the soap in with your fingertips. Then rinse off all traces of soap. Do a thorough job of rinsing. that's important too. Finish by splashing cold water over your face. It's an excellent plan to wash away the grime of the day when you conic home from school.

All grease. dirt and cnsiiiclics should be rcinoved at least twice daily.

Lct that word ”clcuii" apply to everything that touches your face. Use a clean handkerchief. a clean powder puff and compact pad. You girls should try to avoid powder- ing over old makc-up. Keep your hair and scalp clean too. for skin troubles can start there. Don't rub your hands on your face. and don't pick at the pimples. ever.

certain foods from the diet. If you skin tends to break out chocolate is the one food above all to avoid. That goes for chocolate in all forms - chocolate candy. cake. cookics. puddings. frosting. sauces, ice cream, hot chocolate and cocoa. Nuts. including peanuts and peanut butter can aggravate the acne. Or soft drinks may be taboo for you. Take the healthy attitude. ”any- thing for a clear skin." and you won't want the foods that are troublc makers for you. Skin spe- cialists warn aganist taking iodine or bromide medications.

Eat plenty of fruits and vege- lablcs, lean meats and whole grains. Drink tltrcc glasses of milk. but not chocolate milk. If the fat in the milk causes trouble. or boosts calories too high. switchto boosts calories too high. switch to skim milk or buttermilk. Butter- milk is often surprisingly helpful in complexion troubles. The food pattern that banishcs bulges can improve your skin too.

About all. be healthy minded about your problem. If you dwell on it until everything seems wrong. it can get you down. Concentrate on your assets. let the real you shine through. Then it won't be long before someone will notice .your wonderful smile and your friendly good humor. There need be no -blemishes on your personal- ity! And when you forget yourself and stop fussing. chances are your .skin will improve too.

ELLEN'S DIARY

Can Spring Be

This week brought nice spells of sunshine again to Island places. to wash the farmlands with its gold and to spark a responsive bright chord in folks' hearts. We hailed its return happily. watched it now. seeping Into the depth of the val- ley, iewelling the wavelets on the millpond. warming the hillsides. It gave us once more the glory of the sunset with the days commencing 'to linger now as though a little loath to leave the brightness and enter the dim aisles of the dusk. And we enjoyed the solemn still- ness which bears them then through the fading shades of the afterllght .into the quiet and rest of the night.

This week we found again it wishing-star to ask in make-believe from the recesses of a woman's heart those wishes nameless and unspoken but still very dear. The moon too we had-. as it climbed above a roof and dissolved the dlmness of night.
