But now when you're doing homework, war work and then some, you wish you really had a way to do it. That's why I asked the pretty Cuban radio singer, Emma Otero, how she manages to look lovely in spite of rushing from rehearsal to broadcast and back again She says her secret is to apply powder first, then add a liquid powder base as a topper (instead HER makeup lasts. of as a base). By smoothing the foundation makeup over the pow- der, you get a clear and clean look minus a shine. And you thereby avoid cakey or spotty pow- dering. less time because makeup last longer. She uses no rouge, preferring the languid Lat- in look of her olive complexion set off only by darkly shining lip- stick and excellent eye makeup. If she uses any rouge, she puts it lightly over her entire face (and {she means lightly!) after the base application and wipes it off with tissue to leave a rosy tone but no red color. You may prefer to put some ex- tra powder also on top of the puff (nose, chin and forehead may need it especially). Try wiping it off lightly with tissue. This is the time to be concerned with correct color. If you're not sure yours are right, next time you buy makeup consult a makeup spe- clalist free at beauty salons or cosmetic counters. And remember, as Miss Otero does, that diet often can do more for your skin—not necessarily a starvation diet’but more balance Lo the food ‘you're choosing. Her suggestion for an art in | 2ye makeup is to put it on precise- iy almost eyelash by eyelash and to spread your eye shadow slow- ly and smoothly., Be sure to re- Imove the~ surplus. | Three Little Words Ruined His Racket BALTIMORE, April 4 — Patrol- man George Parke watched a tall, skinny guy in a shabby suit pre- senting a card to passersby.
