Lovesick? Sleepless Nights?
Topaz Legendary Cure
For Victims of Insomnia
Insomnia sufferers have been advised throughout the ages to try
a variety of ridiculous cures for their unfortunate malady. Many a
night has a sleepless victim lain awake counting pasture after pasture
.of drowsy sheep.
Oddly enough, the topaz, November's birthstone, has the legend
ary power of curing insomnia. It is also said to dispel sadness ; and
is called -the emblem .of true
friendship and lasting love.
, Island in Red Sea
The. symbolisin of the topaz
goes even - further. Those who
wear the golden-hued stone are
said: =to iemain devoted to their
partnerg.for life.
•The, ancients found certain
yellow-green stones, actually to
day's peridot, on an island in the
Red-Seal-The island was called
"TopazoS,"• which means "to
seek."
Later' all yellow stones be-
Came knoWn by the name topaz.
Today ;most; of the stones called
topaz are reality a variety of
quartz,- - -to which many other
beautiful gems belong as a fam

Precious Topaz
.!: , 'Mucli of the stone comes from
Brazil As found it is a six-sided
crystal, to which. the name "ci
trine"- is applied by mineralo
gists.
More rarely one comes upon a
piece of -what is called "precious
topaz." This quality is found in
several colors and has a chem
ical -structure altogether differ
ent from that of quartz.
•...Being so rare, naturally pre
cious topaz demands great re
spect and a correspondingly
high price. Much blue and pink
topaz is also mined, but ..rthe
yellow-brown, similar in 'ap
pearance. to the quartz variety,
is' found more often.
Cameos, Intaglios
Topaz comes in many shades
of yellow to brown; and is there
fore well-suited to the -colors-of
late autumn. The stone is - .hard
and durable, and is especally at
tractive in many types -of jewel
ry. It is effective when Of,
in modern gold mountings.
A good ring stone, the - .topaz
lends itself to carving,into,‘ both
cameos an d intaglios. Both
types of topaz are worn -.well
with the duller shades. of au-.
tumn and winter. •

week courses. . .
Plans for a play begin months
before the actual production. Sets
designed by regular dramatics
classes are sent to the technical
crew. In the loft of Schwab Audi
torium, the designs are repro
duced in actual backdrops and
stage background. When they are
finished, they are , loWered to the
auditorium through a trap door.
Furniture Planning
Meanwhile the props crew is
planning the type of furniture to
be used on the stage. If the play
is se in a certain period, most of
the Props must be constructed by
the crew. If the play takes place
in modern times, the furniture is
borrowed or Players' props are
used
What kihd of advertising will
be most effective is the question
of the advertising crew.. After de
ciding'on a medium and choosing
a basic idea, the crew must design
posters, paint store windows, and
publicize the play so that every-
One wants to see it.
Sound and light crews must de=
cide what special effects will best
enhance dramatic moments in the
play. In workshop meetings,
members have-learned the uses of
various lights and - sound gadgets
and how to operate them.
When the play is first picked
for production, members of the

"SATURDAY'S
HERO"
Men's Faces Give
Hot Tip to Women
Coeds, if you want that "skin you love to touch," ask your date
how he does it. Believe it or not, the male takes better care of his
facial complexion than does the fair sex.
This little-known fact was the unexpected outcome:of an inter
view with beauty specialist Idah Gustaf son in a downtown
drugstore. She is there this week to give tips on beauty care.
Said Miss Gustafson, "I admire
the way men groom because they
do a thorough job of cleansing.
"My advice to women," she
continued," is, - let's take a tip
from the men and really clean
our skin!"
Shaving -.otion •
The secret of your date's lovely
complexion is that he shaves.
Shaving does more than just re•-
move whiskers. It removes scaly,
dead skin, and leaves in its place
a smooth, tlansparent layer of
new skin. On women, Miss Gui
tafson said, the dead skin is al
lowed to accumulate.
After your date finishes shav
ing,
he applies shaving lotion.
Lotion, Miss Gustafson says, ab
sorbs soil . from the pores of the
skin and reduces them to their
normal size.
"On the "o ther hand, women
don't know how to wash their
faces. What they do, the spe
cialist said, is to put new make
up on without effectively remov
ing the old. Just soap and water
is not enough. When you clean
out a tub, she said, you don't
use soap , and water, you use
scouring powder. The same prin
ciple applies to removing -o 1 d
make-up.
Natural Beauty
However, all is not•lost. Women
have a chance. First apply a
cleansing-cream, Miss Gustafson
advices. Apply the cream to the
skin in upward and outward
strokes. Then remove grime and
cream with a tissue and apply
a skin freshener.
Aft e r this, dab on a special
paste-like cleansing preparation.
When this is done, let it dry and
remove with a dry wash cloth.
Do this for seven days and you
will have a complexion almost as
fair as that of the well-groomed
college lad.
"Men," Miss Gustafson said,
"don't like girls who wear a
mask. Make-up should enhance
the , natural beauty of the skin.
There is no substitute for good
skin."
- .So, coeds, take a tip from your
male friends, and strive for that
peaches-and-cream- complexion.
