CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE HISTORY WAS MADE JULY Ist. The federal government has permanently settled Victory Day, and Thanksgiving, as annual Monday holidays. Heretofore the dates have been named each year, although they have been observed on a Monday, it is true, for quite a number of years. fi Some people are now advocating the setting of Dominion Day and R brance Day on Mondays in place of July Ist and November llth. Is there nothing thot they hold sacred? They are being big and concede that Good Friday and Christmas should be remembered on their proper days’ of the year, but , ‘advocate the adoption of a World Calendar as a catch all. Are our lives becoming such a set pattern that we can loose the connection of the commemoration of Confederation, with the date of July Ist. The prize line we have read on this is in part, “this would make the holiday worth a great deal more to Canadians.” Isn't that rich? How could any date other than July Ist have more significance to a true Cariadian. It has even been suggested that the change to Monday, would give the holiday planning committee more consistency from year to year. What could be more consistant than July Ist, we have seen it come around each year for quite some time now; never missed. What would happen to Monday closing which is becoming so popular with so many cities. Would all the Canadian workers be, willing to give up these days off with pay? We think not- Great plans are being made to celebrate British Columbia’s hundredth birthday next year, a milestone in our history. Let us remember that it is only possible through a birthday that we celebrate each year, July 1st. TIMELESS THURSDAY, MARCH’: 14, (1957 TOPICS From By Rev. F. E.

What is beauty? Some say beauty is as beauty does, Oth- ers that jt is only skin deep. » it isa fon of a@ great many little things. At- tention ot these little things can make beauty yours! A warm personality; a vibrant healthy look, a friendiy smile, 2 well-modulated voice, a graceful way of moving — all add up to an impression of loveliness, But perhaps the most import- ant part of beauty {s the .self- confidence and poise that come vith knowing that. you have made the most, of your good looks. To give Mother Nature all the help she may require, start off with “a sound beauty routine. Take your beauty steps one at a time and do them thoroughly. First master the all important basic care of the skin, hair, hands and ‘feet, then perfect your. make-up. Beauty is everywhere, in glass- es, bottles, tubes and jars, But it is only beauty Hf it is pro perly used. Care of the skin is the first step. It should be kept scrupulously clean. Black heads come but they can go, too. Soften the spot with cream and gently press them out. Check on whether you have dry, olly or normal skin. Then al- ways buy for your particular Then plenty of good old-fash- joned brushing for your hair. Keep it.as clean as can be, Don't neglect your scalp. Keep it well stimulated.. It is the basis of healthy, lovely hair, Give your eyes “a beauty rest once In a while. Beware of eye strain. Give hands and feet the same tender care. Shape and file nails with an emery board. Don't file too close to corners. And remember - the frosting for your beauty is your make-up. Learn to use it skillfully. Before you put on any new, take off every bit of old.
