If your skin is flaky, rub it with a handful of moistened salt or a grainy cleanser. Remember this is an emergency treatment. As a habit, an ounce of prevention is better; so keep your skin well oiled and protected with a creamy foundation.

Bored by 'Differential Calculus,' Try Reading 'Winnie the Poo'
Are you frankly bored by "The Decline and the Fall of the Roman Empire?" Does "Differential and Integral Calculus" leave you cold? Then try reading "Winnie the Poo," "Pinocchio," or "Pecos Bill." Children's books, yes, but definitely a part of an approved course of study for college students.
Children's literature, a freshmansophone course taught by Mrs. Natalie Calderwood, delves into the study of children's stories. Students learn the criteria for good children's suitable for each age group, and the specialized techniques of presentation of literature to children.
Such questions as, "Is it wise to let children read fair tales?" and "Should one read out loud to school children?" are answered.
A children's literature library lines one end of the reserve section at Watson library. Approximately 260 volumes have been selected by Mrs. Calderwood as outstanding example of various forms of juvenile literature. Anthologies and discussions of writing for young people are included. Each year the best in new literature is added.
William James's "Smoky," packed with fast-moving blood and thunder, is typical of the group of western books.

The animal fantasy, "Wind in the Willows" is considered a masterpiece of writing for young people. Adults and children alike have enjoyed Kenneth Graham's book for
"Gay Neck," the story of an Indian pigeon combines the qualities of an animal and a far-away-places tale. The books about Arabia, the Far East, and Arctic regions, Europe, and South America are among the most popular in the collection.

For an easy way to brush up on your history, the children's library offers biographies of Washington, Lincoln, Franklin, Gandhi, Shakespeare, and many others. In the same educational vein, you can find simplified versions of "Beowulf," the "Iliad," and the "Odyssey."
Lindley's Kansas Cleaners WHERE QUALITY IS FIRST
Wallpaper Adds Sparkle, Color
Do you feel that your dormitory room lacks sparkle and color, brightness and interest? If so, take a few wallpaper hints—and with a minimum of work and energy place a few conversational pieces here and there in your room.
Wallpapering doesn't take any great professional skill. Statistics tell us, in fact, that almost two-thirds of all wallpapering is now being done by amateurs.
A well-worn stereotype came immediately to the senior's overworked mental processes. This home ec was the major with snap courses and extra curricular lab work toward an MRS degree, all very much beneath, of course, the superior intelligence of the KU newshen.
Priding herself in her own tolerance, good will and broad mindedness, however, the journalist asked the attractive and surprisingly sane looking creature if she had any good reason (other than getting-a-man)

"So you are majoring in home ec?" The worldly wise and "professional" J-school senior gave the home ec sophomore a condescending look, saved usually for stray freshmen and other lost or misguided souls.
The proper choosing of wallpaper makes all the difference between great success and an indifferent result. Choose a pattern that has imaginative design and good clear colors.
But it does require neatness to prepare a surface for covering. Cleaness is an absolute prerequisite. If you are papering over wood, take off the old finish; if it is a wall, remove the old wallpaper to the original smooth surface.

A Chinese wallpaper print turns an ordinary footlocker into an interesting antique trunk. Make a careful paper pattern, cutting around the brass, and using many coats of lacquer or varnish on the metal for a yellowed antique look.
Choose the gayest wallpaper you can find to cover a wastebasket you can make yourself out of two old hatboxes! Line it with a solid color.

Home Ec Is Necessary Decides Girl Journalist
Turn an old chest into something entirely new and different. Hand-some wallpaper can cover a multitude of decorating eyesores.
Apply a coat of glue size to keep colors from sunning and help the paper stick better. The easiest way to protect your paper is by finishing with a coat of sprayed plastic.
She led the newshen by the hand to Fraser, where English classes had been held in BJE (before journalism) days, and showed us a well-equipped and interesting department that (quote) prepares for homemaking, trains for earning a living and provides a liberal education (unquote).

After this enlightening experience, the J-major was convinced that there must be a "back to the stove and sewing machine" campaign urging every KU coed, whether majoring in physics or philosophy, to take a couple basic home ec courses.
You Can Have the Best at a Low Cost Economical — Cash and Carry — 12. E. 8th
The many possibilities include home management, child development, family relationships, food and nutrition, health of the family, clothing and textiles and home decoration.
As well as the general majors offered, there is the apparel merchandising sequence in the department of home economics and the schools of business and fine arts, and a combined home economics-journalism course.
ter answer was so impressive the journalist decided to look into this home ec business more seriously.
In well equipped and modern food laboratories home ec majors learn how to prepare the stuff dearest to man's heart. In nutrition and dietetics the composition of foods and your own dietary needs are studied. In sewing classes the styles and colors of clothes most becoming to you are emphasized—and in time one can learn how to design and construct original creations—equal to any Parisian "original," they tell us. In home decoration and housing courses, studied are house construction and design, furniture styles and qualities and types of fabrics used in decorating the home.
Vocational opportunities are wide and varied for the trained home economist, from housewife to school teacher, to dietitian, to department store or social service worker.
Now it is hoped that this rash testimonial won't cause a mass migration to Fraser—but that some will, nevertheless, stamped cautiously to the old flag-topped hall and enroll in courses that should, from all reports, provide training in boiling water, sewing fine seams, arranging flowers, and calculating calorie-less diets.
