Thai Body-Of Yours By June: W. Bulol. ILD. IIDOD - THI NW3 OF LEI

"Blood in the magic gift of life. '.llhe.ro is no substitute for it. It can come only from human don- ors. It in our best Wonder medi- cine,, as whole blood..as plasma (the liquid part), as any of half a dozen parts or fractions that scientists now can draw from it."

I am quoting from the Public Affairs Pamphlet. "Blood-Your Gift of Life." which includes an illustration showing the various substances contained in this magic gift-red cells. white cells, oxygen. carbon dioxide. minerals. proteins and others. It is written by Alton L. Blakeslee, the noted health health writer. There is about a gal- lon and a half of blood (12 to 13 pints), in the normal sized person. It is mostly water and salt and "billions of tiny ships or cells. red and white." It flows through 60,000 miles of arteries. capillaries and veins to bathe all the tissues of your body. to take them llfe-giv- :'ng and life-sustaining oxygen. to carry back carbon dioxide and other wastes. And it is just as im- portant to have these Wastes re- moved by the skin. lungs. kidneys and large intestine as it is to re- reive oxygen. A stove or boiler cannot burn properly if ashes are not removed.

Blood contains everything neces- sary for life and health. It carries hormones. the powerful chemical regulators of life; it carries vita- mins and enzymes (ferments which help substances to "get together" and produce other valuable sub- stances).

The red cells are the food and oxygen carriers and the white cells light of! harmful organisms. For rnany years the liquid part of the blood. the plasma. was thought of as just a liquid to carry the cells. but now it is known that it is as necessary to life and health as the cells themselves. Plasma can be dried to a powder and stored in bottles for five years. It needs only to be mixed with sterile water for injection into human veins.

Plasma. has come into great use during wartime as it prevents death from shock. shock has been 3 major cause of death in war and civilian disasters because of the great loss of fluid from the blood. Plasma is rich in protein. now considered our chief food, which riot. only maintalru body structurel but repairs worn parts as well.

some of the uses of the parts of the blood are (al to light shock. (b) to csyry antibodies which fight dis- ease. (cl to prevent anemia (thin blood). ldl to clot blood. prevent- lng death from bleeding.

Something in the Eye

Do not rub the eye when you feel something has lodged in it. Close the eye and gently pull the eyelid free of the bull; frequently the tears will wash out the speck. If this does not work. look in the mirror. and see if you can detect the speck with the other eye; it so. remove it with the corner of a clean handkerchief. If none of these remedies work. apply a cloth wet with boric acid solution and go to a doctor at once.

Pie Crust

Too much water makes a pie crust tough and also makes it hard to roll out. Add about a teaspoon- fu1 of water at a time. and use as little flour as possible on the roll- ing pin and board.

I-llcr dinners were frequently referred to as "samples" and in- vitations to them were not me- coptcd with alacrity the second time. Her wealth was great. how- ever. and her social persistence was un-tiring, so there were usually some guests at the table. The dinner was of the usual in- adequate kind.

Royal Fashions Eye - catching

By KAY REX Canadian Press Staff Writer TORONTO. Nov. l5-(CP)-Ev- ening gowns turned the heir pre- sumptive to the British Throne into I fairy Princess durin the month-long tour which ende this

week.

Magical creation: were the wand which. for thousands. sped Princess Elizabeth into the never-never- land of Kings and Queens and palaces.

Canadians-the lucky ones who curtaeyed, the masses who only glimpsed a smile from a passing car-wanted it that way. They were like the small boy in Quebec who saw a pretty brown-haired girl. then asked when the Princess would be coming. Their imagi- nation demanded an ethereal cre- ature. all sparkle. not quite real. Princess Elizabeth did credit to the role given her. By day she was a smartly tailored youngEng- lish woman; evenings she became the Princess of a thousand dreams. when the tour began Oct. ll, she greeted Quebec officlaldom in a gossamer gown of grey silver lace and tulle at a state dinner. An ermine cape about her shoulders, diamond tiara sparkling beneath the street-lights. she fed the fancy oi the crowds who saw her enter.

Canadian Wedding Gift:

The cape was frequently noticed during the trip. together with a full-length coat of wild mink. Both were made in this country. The latter was one of Canada's wed- ding gifts to the Princes. The former also was a wedding pre- sent, given by the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire. Norman l-Iartnell, the British designer famed for his embroider- ed ball gowns. is believed to have created most of the Princess" for- mal attire.

A favorite dress was the quoise and cream brocade she wore in Washington Nov. 11 and for the state dinner Oct. 13 in Toronto. The tires had a wide. soft-flowing skirt and a large bow on the left side. Both collar and bow were trimmed with turquoise velvet.

While the Royal wardrobe was said to contain 18 complete out- fits. the Princess were most of them twice and several more fre- quently.

Favorlto Outiltl

A favorite was a dress of "robin red" crepe with full flaring skirt in which she appeared at Ottawa's civic luncheon Oct. ii. A match- ing tailored wool coat with black velvet insets on the sleeve and collar and close-fitting hat, com- pleted the ensemble. Winnipeg. Vancouver and Halifax residents saw her in the same dress.

An outfit described at different times as olive green. moss green. forest green-or just plain light green-caught the attention of Victoria women during the visit there Oct. 22. It included a velvet coat with shaped skirt and crepe tucked dress. the same worn in Montreal a week later-

Brown was another shade which met with Royal favor. For the trip from Ottawa to Toronto, the Princess wore a full-skirted velvet coat in chocolate brown with matching head-hugging feather hat and shoes.

But while other outfits in slate blue and mustard yellow caught speculative glances of feminine admirers. the evening-gowns still held the dream appeal.

There was a pale yellow picture dress with diamante: chosen for the state dinner at Winnipeg Oct. 16. and the gown of gold and white lace at Ottawa.

Sometimes Her Royal Highness appeared on formal occasions with a. diamond necklace. diamond drop ear-rings or bracelets. Always she had on the blue ribbon of the 600- year-old Order of the Garter. And -just like a real Princess-she always wore a. diamond tiara.
