HEAD START Children's heads are getting bigger says a Texas designer of headwear who has been making children's hats for the past 15 years. He 1ases his averages on 10000,000 hats sold since 19H and attribes the increase in head and hat size to the fact that boys, and girls are healthier, taller and bigger.

Pressed Powder New Grooming Aid Pressed powder is rapidly becoming an indispensable aid to well-groomed women. I not adequate for every use. but it's perfect for the pocketbook. It can't open and spill powder all through other belongings and it doesn't dust up when opened in public. It also doesn't put sprays of powder on the shoulders and collar.

For all of these reasons, many women find it the perfect away-from-home powder. New from a well-known manufacturer Is a pressed powder compact, complete with mirror. The powder is a combination of powder, creamy foundation and an ingredient designed to hold moisture in the skin. The maker has added his popular scent to the powder. To go with it, the a a a indelible lipstick.

These two corne together in a special presentation, in harmonizing colors. Any bottled mint sauce in the house? Pour it over cooked green peas and chill. Serve on crisp greens as a salad with lamb chops. Add a few drops of peppermint extract to sweetened whipped cream. Serve as a topping' for chocolate pudding.

Girls Play Double Role With Fake Hair Lots of girls play a double role by keeping their hair moderately short and wearing a fake chignon. Once upon a time, this was an expensive purchase but today. Chignons made of the artificial fiber, clynel. are modestly priced. For most girls who want to wear them it is practical to own two: one to wash and one to wear.

Because they can darken enough to stop matching the natural a i chignons should be kept clean by- washing. First remove any pins, and brush the piece to loosen dirt and i Fill a washbasin with warm water and lots of sudes. Gently swish the hairpiece up and down through the suds. Take care to avoid prolonged soaking of the base to which hair is attached. Rinse suds out gently under running a water.

Place the hairpiece on a clean hath towel to dry at room tempter- a Don't dry near heat. iblot away excess moisture by patting the chignon with a towel. Once the hair is dry. comb it gently with a wide-tooth comb, against a i surface. The side of the washbasin is good for this.

To set the hair, start at the stitched edge, roll it up and pin it. Once it is shaped, pin a fine hair nor. over it to hold it in place.
