Those who like cats no doubt will attend the cat show at the Hotel Granada which continues today and tonight. Curiosity, not a particular liking for cats, prompted me to attend yesterday's show. And guess what happened? I found myself wanting to own a Siamese cat! I didn't go for the long haired type commonly known as Persian or Angora. Too pampered looking. They reminded me of the voluptuous, bejeweled and draped beauties of the harem (the story-book version).

Now, the, Siamese is something! It has a small head, not jowled like the Persian. The Siamese is quick and graceful, not languorous as is the long haired cat. It has a smoky nose area and the coat is short and smooth. The ones es I saw were all white and all buff. I give myself just about two days of wanting to own a cat.

Then I'll go back to wanting to own a dog. Cats aren't chummy enougn, in Margaret Mara my opinion. The cages of some of the cats in the show are plastered with ribbons they have won in other cat shows. One cage has so many ribbons that you can hardly see the occupant.

I hope that you do not forget to brush your hair regularly even if you have had a boyish cut. Hair and scalp need stimulating to keep healthy so you cannot get by with just combling your hair every lose day! It is said that men their hair more quickly because they wash it too often (under! showers when they bathe) and because they do not brush it.

They use a brush to slick hair down, not to brush it up and away from the scalp as do women. Don't make the mistake either of washing your hair too often. Every week or every 10 days more frequently. If douse it more hair will soon lack any lustre and will be rebellious. Encourage Curl is Every head' of hair has a natural line of its own-that is -it falls one way or the other.

Discover how your hair to fall naturally and then have it trimmed so it can fall that way. This will encourage any wave or curl it might have, especially if you keep brushing lit scalp and oil over distribute the the length of natural the hair. If your hair is short, after a shampoo push it up against your head with your hands while it is still damp. Do not comb it or brush Let it dry thoroughly as it will fall and you will be surprised to see that it has a little natural fluff and curl. Any girl makes a mistake to set her hair with setting lotion unless is too frizzy.

Hair 1o- tion only tends to make the hair dull because it coats it. The less you put on your hair the better. Once in a blue moon you discover a hairdresser who actually knows how to cut hair to encourage its natural wave or curl. When you find him, never let him go! He will keep your hair shaped as it should be shaped. Skytop Activities Contemporary Comment Entertain Boroites By RUTH G.
