Not. particularly new, when you come to think of it, for cosmeticians for some time have been telling plain women to piay up their eyes if they would be attractive, But a New York salon has evolved a definite new technique for match- ing make-up to the eyes. All make- up, they say, from eye-shadow to powder and rouge, should be chosen in a harmonious scheme to accentu- ate the color of the eyes. A Tip From Clothes It's the same principle on which clever women match their clothes to their eyes. Blues and blue-greens for blue-eyed women, rusts, browns and tans for brown-eyed indi- viduals. When it comes to make-up, the beauty salon does the same thing. Blue-eyed women need make-up tinted to match the blue of the iris. Eye-shadow should be blue, lip- stick red with a purple cast, powder also with a bluish overtone, rouge on the purple side.

Hazel eyes—Powder with green pig- ment in it, lipstick with some yel- low in it (they do come that way), light brown eye-shadow, and rouge with as much golden overtone to it as you can discover. Brown and black eyes—(Black eyes usually are not pure black, but are very dark brown, so they're classed together)—Sun-tan pow- ders, if your skin isn't too white, at least a decided rachel powder, an orange lipstick, dark brown eye-shadow, and rouge with lots of orange in.it. The beauty salon with all these ideas says blue eyes are sparkling; brown eyes are mysterious; gray eyes are dreamer’s eyes; hazel eyes are mischievous. Take a look at yours, and see if you agree. Alaska” by Lester D. Henderson. Safest Drivingige, 32-31, Expert Finds AMES, Ia., Dec. 28—Dr. A. R. Lauer, Iowa State College psychol- ogist and traffic safety research worker, describes the “safe driver” as: A man without domestic troubles, between 32 and 37; above five feet ten inches in height and weighing between 170 and 180 pounds. Dr. Lauer, who has tested 15,000 drivers in several States, says the person “who is above the average in mentality, physighe and person- ality, or at least is neither brute nor shrimp, Ph.D. nor ignoramus, routine bookkeeper - or - scientific genius,” has a pretty good chance of being a good driver. SR AT PR SR E Connecticut is ealled the “nut- meg state” because of an alleged practice of some early ’citizens of manufacturing and selling wooden nutmegs as genuine. M. S. Electron Nearly Wrecked This Afternoon ‘Automobilefbsed to Pull Pounding Craft to Safe- ty of Dock Lee An automobile and a rowboat pre- vented what may have been unlimit- ed damage to Glenn Goudie’s 40 foot heavy duty cruiser Electron this af- ternoon. The craft broke loose from its moorings at.the Cash Cole Dock, and when the engine failed, drifted into a precarious position at Keeney's Float, from where it was pulled by Sheldon Simmons in his automo- bile after Bud Dotson had rowed a line across to him. Early this afternoon Jim John- son, who has been watching the craft for Glenn Goudie, went up town to change clothes. When he re-| turned, the craft was working hard at its lines and soon snapped three bow lines and broke loose. M.S. Electron Drifting back against the piling in the heavy seas running in before a half gale of wind, the Electron smasted its mast, and took out two piling in its wild plunging before it was moored at the Keeney Float as the clutch failed. Icing fast and crashing heavily against the float, a line was brought down and Bud Dotson launched a skiff to row it over to the Cash Cole dock where Sheldon Simmons and several willing hands made a heavier line fast to the rear of Simmons’ car, and the boat was pulled to more quiet waters, after two hours of la- bor, Gus Gustafson could not get the motorship Estebeth away from the dock with the wind and seas run- ning as hard as they were. This is the third time this year the M.S. Electron has had hard luck. Last spring she hit the rocks in Gambier Bay. This fall she was slightly crushed in a bad Taku wind in Juneau’s harbor. Glenn Goudie, owner of the craft is in Hirst, on Chichagof Island. UNION AIDS THE BOSSES SAN JOSE, Cal., Dec. 28.—Califor- nians accustomed to long bickerings between. emj\oyer and employee took some cheer from a gesture of the Dried Fruit and Nut ckers’ union. The union men got together to assist the growers in a sales cam- paign to dispose of this season’s bhuge prune crop. A large adver- tisement urging all friends of Ia- bor to do the boss a good turn and buy a crate of prunes was pub- lished in the newspapers. - RELIEF OPPOSED DURING HARVEST BAN JOSE, Cal, Dec. 28.—A reso- lution of the Associated Farmers of California condemned issuance of relief to able-bodied men while crops were left standing in the field for lack of farm labor. One of a number of growers’' organizations in the state, the Associated Farmers includes many of the larger agricul- tural operators.

A large ridge of high barometric pressure extended from the Arctic Ocean north of Barrow southeast to the Green Lakes. This pressure distri- bution has given rise to light snow over southeast Alaska and north- ern British Columbia and the Canadian prairie provinces, rain from Vancouver Island to the Columbia River and fair weather over the rest of the field of observation. Heavy rain fell over the Puget Sound region, Seattle reporting a 24 hour fall of 3.06 inches.
