Supper, Program
One of the most unusual church
affairs held here for some time was
the white wing supper at the Pres
byterian church Tuesday evening,
attended by about 150 members.
White wings were provided for
the supper by the men of the con
gregation. Cleve Tandy directed the
preparation of the meal and S. W.
McKenzie was head of the dining
room. W. H. Huffman, who planned
the entertainment for the occasion,
put on a program which banished
all stiffness, and created a great
deal of merriment. A number of
comedy skits, including a clever
burlesque cn the white wing hunters
were staged by the men of the con
gregation. Mrs. A. E. Derrick and
Mrs. J. C. Gracy gave piano solos,
and the Harmony quartet, com
posed of Emmet: and John Carr
Sewell. Carl Henshaw, and Prank
Gilmore, sang several numbers.
The church parlors, in which the I
supper was served, were appropri
ately decorated with sunflowers, I
sorghum hay and other plants typ
ical of the haunts of the white wing.

IF FALL WINDS PLAY
HAVOC WITH THE SKIN
$
By JOSEPHINE HI DOLESTON
One of my readers recently wrote to me asking for a remedy for the
frightful beauty and comfort destroyers—sun and windbum. She stated
that no matter how much she exposed her skin to the hottest summer
sun she never burned, but at the first touch of
autumnal winds her creamy tan turned several
shades darker and burned like fire. After answering
her letter I thought it mirht be well to pass on the
information I gave her.
Those of you who have experienced windbum
know that it is even more painful than sunburn
alone. For myself. I've only had two bums in my
life, one an ordinary sunburn and the other a wind
burn that gave me several hours of the most tortur
ous pam I've ever experienced.
It was some year ago when I was in motion pic
tures. The day was one of the golden autumn days
in early October with a blazing sun and crisp wind
that is so characteristic of early fall. We were tak
JOSEPH1NC 1X18 s0*™* on the beach and my costume consisted
HUDDLESIDN of a rather scant bathing suit. By the end of the
day every visible part of my bodv was a flaming red
and I was in such pain I scarcely could finish the
scenes.
Arriving home my mother rubbed oils over my body but that did not
bring relief and 1 o'clock in the morning found me in a terrible state.
Mother called a doctor.
"Got any eggs?” he asked.
- “Yes,” Mother answered.
“Separate the yolk from the white
of as many eggs as you have,” he
commanded.
The whites of a dozen eggs were
beaten until stiff and then I sat
in a chair while Mother literally
covered my face, throat, shoulders,
chest and arms with the albumen
until I felt like a huge, frosted
cake. Then my legs, feet and
thighs were treated in the same
way and I had to stand up until
the “frosting'’ was dry, which took
abcut fifteen minutes.
I shall never forget the blessed
relief that came almost as soon as
the white of egg touched my skm.
The burning sensation stepped sud
denly, almost as though a light had
been turned off. long before the
albumen had actually dried.
When the white of egg was dry
I was wrapped in a sheet and tum
bled into bed and I fell asleep im
mediately.
The physician explained to Moth
er that the white of egg not only
drew out the fire, but formed a
protective covering over the sensi
tive skia. thus keeping the air from
irritating it further.
In the morning We sponged off
the white of egg with cool water
and found that most of the red
ness had disappeared. The skin
peeled off a few days later but in
large pieces instead of the more
lengthy process of finking, so that
w.thin m few' days all trace of my
misadventure was gone.
Of course, that was a severe case
and the average wmdburn does not
cover so much of the body nor is it
so aggregated. Consequently the
average treatment with white of
epq is simpler. I've recommended
this treatment before and in many
cases no peei ng at all results.
It is so ample, just smoothing
the beaien white of egg thickly
over the w.nd-burned area and let
ting it dry. It also is effective for
ordinary sunburn but most of you
have undoubtedly found a satisfac
tory remedy for that.
