SUNRISE DAIRY. BATESON'S MODEL DAIRY. Here's Health An acre of white potatoes on the average, say agricultural researchers, produces a larger tonnage of food than an acre devoted to anything else. This is the largest and most valuable crop in the world, exceeding any other table food plant — in- cluding any cereal. Potato varieties which were most important commercially at the beginning of the century have been replaced by newer, more disease-free types. Sever- al of our outstanding varieties -- 'all on the Big Ten list -- hadn't even been heard of in the 1920's. What makes the potato such a gift to mankind is that it comes near being.a complete though low protein food. Be- cause of their high mineral and vitamin content, and the large amounts consumed, potatoes are one of our most important protective foods. Best of all, men and boys, women and girls all love pota- toes, so if you have a small - size population explosion right at your own dining room table, you will want these recipes from the test kitchens of the United Fresh Fruit and Vege- table Association, suggesting appetizing main dishes which feature the mighty potato.

FRIENDS HONOR MARILYN CHAMNEY Miss Karen Beattie of Lon- don and Mrs. Bob Cook ofClin- ton were hostesses at a linen and pantry shower held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Stewart Beattie last Saturday evening in honor of Miss Marilyn Charnney, bride -elect. About forty rela- tives and friends attended. The chair was decorated with a white bell and streamers: A social time was enjoyed by the guests and a dainty lunch was served by the hostesses, Wingham Advance -Times,. Thursday, I v, 25, 1955 -- Page S features from The World of Women 3eauy Through the Ages Bridge -builders and beauti- cians have one thing in com- mon --they owe their jobs to the human desire to improve the map of nature. Humanity's first make-up job was strictly a masculine af- fair, according to recent data on beauty history compiled by Leerning-Pacquin, specialists in skin care. Cavemen were colorful old settlers, dying their bodies to attract their wo- menfolk and scare off their enemies. At one time, all the best Britons were blue and American Indians were fam- ously gaudy. The B.C, belle had a formid- able arsenal of beauty aids. A 6,000 -year-old compact has been found equipped with tiny tweezers, cuticle stick and rouge applicator. Queen Nefer- titi used red nail polish over 3, 000 years ago. Egyptian come -hither glances were freighted with green eyeshadow and a mascara -like substance known as kohl. Charcoal eye- brow pencils were in every B.C. boudoir, Flappers thought they were daring when they affected that flour -faced "vamp" complex- ion, but the women of Greece and Rome anticipated Theda Bara by some 20 centuries, They achieved that pale, inter- esting look by coating their faces with a white lead " foun- dation," then dusting them- selves with chalk powder. Helen of Troy used a dif- ferent beauty approach --she was thought to keep her classic features lovely with this recipe for a facial mask: "Take two pounds barley, two pounds bean flour, mix with six eggs. After drying in the sun, grind powder and add one-sixth pound of powdered hart's horn (important). Pass this through a sieve and corn - bine with twelve narcissus bulbs mortar pounded, twelve ounces of gum, and eighteen ounces of honey." The strange formula seems to have worked wonders for Helen. According to one his- torian, when Paris became smitten with her charms and carried her off to Troy, the fair Helen was sixty years young. In their attention to facials, Grecian women did not neglect body lotions. An ancient text states, "oil is the remedy for the body." Unguents and per- fumed oils, considered essen- tial for everyday hygiene, were kept in beautiful stone urns and glass bottles, many of which now adorn our museums. Not only adorning museums, they have recently sparked a new trend on the beauty scene. To re-create the pampered look of Ancient Greece, one manufacturer introduced its new formula lotion in a ceramic glass vase, When knighthood was in flower, medieval women thought that an herb called lovage would rid them of freck- les. Their loose, flowing cos- tumes did not stress the waist- line, but a 16th century French queen, Catherine de Medici, decided that beauty should definitely go to waist. She de- creed a 13 -inch waistline for her court ladies; to achieve it, they encased themselves in corsets of steel plates. A centuries-old prescription for smooth hands recommended rubbing them with bread dough. But one early 19th century belle based her beauty formula on milk instead of bread. Na- poleon's sister, the Princess Borghese, bathed in milk every day --and contemporary ac- counts reported that her skin had a rich luster and smooth- ness that was the envy of her court. Bibles Shown at Goforth Auxiliary The Goforth Evening Auxil- iary of St. Andrew's Presbyter- ian Church met in the council chambers on Tuesday evening of last week. The president, Mrs. S. Forsyth opened the meeting.

Prayer was offered by Mrs. S. Scott. Mrs. J. Lee, accompanied by Mrs. G. L, Fish, sang a solo, "It Took a Miracle of Love". Mrs. B. Corrin spoke on Jeph- thah's daughter, a famous wo- man of the Bible. The offering was received and dedicated by Mrs. R. Mac- Donald. A collection ofmon- ey and gifts was received for Huronview residents. The topic, "Influences of the Bible" was introduced by Mrs. R. McKague with discus- sions by Mrs. S. Scott, Mrs. B. Corrin, Mrs. R. MacDonald and Mrs. M. Jenkins. A beautiful display of Bibles ranging from an old family Bi- ble over a hundred years old to a modern version, were shown.
