heavy liquid consistency.
Place a generous amount of this
cream into the palm of the right
hand, then rotate the left elbow in
the cupped right hand for a few
minutes. Now straighten the left
arm and massage the cream into the
skin, beginning low on the forearm
and working upward towards the
shoulder. So much for the daily
elbow massage.
The paste for bleaching the el
bows is made by adding equal parts
of witch hazel and peroxide to suf

smooth paste. After cleansing the
skin, spread a generous coating of
the paste over a double layer of
gauze and apply to the elbow. Nar

should remain on for one hour, and
its removal followed by a nourish

The bleach may be used two or
three times each week, more if you

prove most effective if done each
night before retiring.
One or both of the above men

it isn’t necessary to use the bleach
unless the elbows appear discolored.

Education Bill Is
In Danger of Veto
By Governor Moody
AUSTIN, July 2.—(A*)—The house
measure creating a nine-member
state board of education is in dan
ger of veto by the governor, Senator
Margie Neal, Carthage, sponsor of
the measure, declared today as a
result of the failure last night of
the senate to adopt an amendment.
As passed by both houses, the
measure declared no person who
previously had accepted funds for
campaign purposes from a book
company should be elected state su
perintendent. Miss Neal sought to
make the measure apply only to
persons who accepted campaign aid
after the act became effective, but
the move mustered only 16 votes. A
two-thirds majority would have been
necessary to adopt the amendment.
