Hatcher, and his parents. 6 PHS Graduates To Get Mary Washington Degrees Good Looks Not Mailer of Age We cannot hang onto youth all of our lives and there is no reason why we should want to. Rather, we can have something far better: good looks at any age. For that reason, women who insist on bleaching their hair past the age of 40 are only empha- siing the years. For blond hair brings out and cruelly emphasizes wrinkles.

It's far wiser to soften the blond shade gradually to a ven light, soft brown, then add some sparkling highlights. Change yout make-up, too. Jarratt Woman At QES Meeting JARRATT Mrs. C. F.
