Art and Historical Society has VFW Auxiliary Marks Birthday At Banquet A patriotic color scheme with bowls of red and white roses and silver candelabra holding | red, white and blue candles was used on the banquet table at the VFW Auxiliary’s anniversary celebration at the post home on Novembéer 4. The tables were arranged in a horseshow with Auxiliary president Nan Villareal and Commander Charles Machin at the head of the table. The huge birthday cake was al- so decorated in the chosen color | scheme and the beautiful clubroom was a festive looking picture for the lovely affair. Frank Cates played soft dinner music. The charter members of the Aux- iliary of Post 3911 were in charge of the lovely affair with Ruth Higgs as chairman and Nell Houry, Mary | Smith and Ruth Plowman as co- chairmen. The president was presented with | a corsage of rose buds in hono: of the oecasion. The post chaplain gave the his- tory of the Auxiliary and told how this group of ladies held their meetings any place available until money could be raised to build the VFW Club. With the aid of the Post, the la- dies have worked hard to keep go- ing in spite of hardships and ac- complished much in helping veter- ans and underprivileged children.

Crews Waynesboro, Tennessee - st Welcome | Wonders Can Now Be Done. For Skin of Any Age! Dry skin can be overcome..." Crow's Feet” made less noticeable by Grace George The great benefits that have been brought to all mankind as the result of research in the fields of specialized medicine and physicotherapy include important new knowledge of the human skin and its care. For example, it is now established that the condition known as “dry skin” need no longer plague a woman's very existence and add unwanted years to her appear ance. Also, out of this new knowledge has come a successful treatment for those age-adding lines at the corners of the eyes called “Crow's Feet.” This condition is often directly related to excessive skin dryness. The indi cated treatment for “Crow's Feet,” therefore, is the same as for dryness Results are most satisfying. The skin gaims new elasticity overnight from just one treatment, and as it becomes more and more elastic, softer and more supple with continued treatment, those “Crow's Feet” and many other tiny lines become softer and less noticeable. The face appears fresher, smoother and younger looking. The Treatment Is Simple This very desirable change in one’s appearance is quickly accomplished. A special lictad solution containing pure lanolin, with a PLUS in it, is applied to the surface of the skin. Certain components of this special lanolin solution (known as cholesterols and esters) then penetrate the skin to alleviate the condition of dryness and to make the skin softer and more elastic This wonder liquid is Lanouts Pius Liquid and is only $1, plus tax wherever Cosmetics are sold. It is best used at night, first as a make-up remover. then a few drops gently massaged in just before retiring Results can be speeded up if the skin pores are first opened with a hot, wet towel. Used. as a powder base, it keeps the Lawouiy PLUS in contact with the skin during the day, thereby still further accelerating its beauty action In any event, LaNouin PLUS Liquid used im this manner does wonders for dry skin and “Crow's Feet.” Important Shampoo Improvements Have Been Made, Too The action of soap and synthetic detergents on human hair has been carefully studsed. with a view to developing a shampoo that would cleanse thoroughly and beautify. too. Such a shampoo would have to rinse out completely (with one rinsing) so that no dulling residue or film would remajn on the hair.
