Treat Your Eyes With Care
By PATRICIA KING
NEA Beauty Editor
NEW YORK—(NEA) —High
speed thrill seekers are quick
ly joining the fleet of hard
water sailors.
Groovy birds know just
where the winter-sports action
is, whether it be on the slopes
or frozen lakes. And if you
prefer raw excitement, board
an iceboat and clip along at
speeds of 100 miles an hour
and more. Wind booms
through the shrouds and the
scream of razor-sharp run
EVEN WITH SKI GOGGLES, the glare of son on the snow
can cause headache and fatigue. Skiers stop for an eye
break. Eyes irritated by overexposure to wind and sun
glare while ice-boating (inset) also require a few drops
of eye lotion for qnick relief.

DEAR POLLY—The lady
who has trouble with her pat
tern envelopes getting torn
should save the plastic bags
that nylon hose come In and
slip a pattern in each bag.
Mine are almost the same size
as a pattern and you can see
through them.—GLADYS
DEAR POLLY—I am a young
mother, still learning new
things to make life happier for
us and our new baby. When
bathing baby I always had a
difficult time washing between
her toes. One day, as I was
struggling with this, my hus
band gave me a good sugges
tion. He said I should use a cot
ton tipped stick for getting be
tween her toes —one for wash
ing, one for rinsing and a third
for drying. This certainly end
ed a small and uncomfortable
task during her bath. Thanks
to daddy, bath time is happier
for baby and mommy, too.—
MRS. D. R. R.
DEAR POLLY—If you have
never tried it before, try roll
ing the lumps out of powdered
sugar rather than sifting,
which Is tedious and time-con
suming. Put the sugar in a
plastic bag and roll from the
corners toward the open end so
as not to break the bag. Happy
rolling, girls!
Polly, the Pointers are just
great. Thanks to each one who
makes them possible.—HAP

Thanks to you as you, too,
are one of those that make the
column possible.—POLLY
DEAR POLLY—When I fin
ish a bottle of pills but wish to
retain the label bearing the
prescription number (like cold
pills or other refillable pre
scriptions), I note the type of
pill on the label and paste it on
the inside of the medicine
chest. Does anyone have other
ners, makes you feel like a
giant seagull.
Regardless of the sport,
skiing or hard water sailing,
you are vulnerable to winter’s
hazards. Wind and glare can
be hard on the eyes, skin and
hair.
Eye protection belongs at
the top of your check list.
Recommended are large, rub
ber-rimmed goggles with pol
arized green lenses, either
plastic or safety glass. Amber ■
or yellow lenses are good al
The devotional, “An Enduring
People” was given by Miss Ruth
Travis. The meeting closed with
the CWF benediction. During the
social hour the hostess served
refreshments to the 11 mem

Navy surplus masks which

that no skin is exposed.
Skin, protection should in

make-up foundation, applied
more heavily around the
mouth and eyes. Apply suntan
lotion during breaks in the
action and use waterproof
mascara and cream-based lip
sticks. Apply lipstick often to
prevent chapping. A good
heavy-duty night cream will
help replace moisture lost by
a day in the wind and glare.
Your frosty weather kit
should also include a few per
sonal comfort items, such as
hand lotion, tissues, a head
ache remedy, antiseptic and
a plastic bottle of eye lotion.
Clothing should keep you
warm even after long hours
on a frozen lake or slope.
Start with thermal underwear
and wear relatively loose-fit

circulation. Be sure to overlap
breaks where gloves join
