Shouldn’t I stay home on problem days? Many girls do. A. Your monthly period is not a sickness. It’s a natural , normal part of your life. So, there’s no reason to stay home — unless your doctor says otherwise. Take your mind off yourself. Do things you normally do, things you enjoy doing. Get plenty of fresh air and exercise. This will help you feel better, look better, too! Q. I always have skin troubles on those days. What can I do? A. As young people grow toward maturity, oil glands become more active. Pores may become clogged and pimples develop. At maturity, your glands learn to function smoothly, and your skin will clear. Meanwhile, be sure you wash your skin with soap and warm water — 3 times a day. Don't be afraid of wr.ter! Science proves it can't harm you on those days!

What deodorant is best to use on problem days? A. Whatever deodorant you usually rely on should be effective during your period. So far as your sanitary protection is concerned, deodorant powders on pads can only mask the odor. They can’t prevent it from forming. This is another reason why so many girls prefer Tampax. Worn internally, it prevents odor from forming. Banishes all the other telltale signs — lines, bulges, ridges. Keeps your secret safe! Q. What should I do about “disposal problems" on visits? A. Disposal of sanitary protection can be embarrassing for girls who use pads. Tampax® internal sanitary protection solves this problem. Makes changing and disposal truly discreet. You simply flush it away, applicator, and all. Wouldn't you like to try Tampax? It’s so simple and dainty to use, change , dispose of. Comes in 3 absorbency sizes, to suit individual needs: Regular, Super, Junior. Ask for it wherever drug products are sold. Tampax Incorporated, Palmer, Mass. I have a complaint about the movie "The Defiant Ones,' starring Tony Curtis and Sidney Poitier. Throughout the entire movie, Tony and Sidney would light up a dry cigarette, which was impossible, because they were always getting wet!

Liz is the first woman Taylor 1 ever heard of. Is Tab really a wild game Hunter? Does Red really live in a Skelton? I’ve heard of a Courthouse, but someone Please ask Jerome what a Courtland is? If Paul is a Newman, can we presume that Pauline is an old man? If Lucy is a round Ball can we presume that Jack is a round Lemmon? M. Reed Fort Worth, Tex. This is fun! How about: Is Carroll really a Baker ? Arlene is truly a Dahl. W as Fredric born in March ? ( nope , August ) . 1 Fas Ava ever a Gardner? Oh well, enough of this . . . — Ed. A Newcomer Although I read Photoplay regularly, to my knowledge 1 have not seen any articles “A monster lover you have to be . . .” a more artful portrayal of history's most infamous count.
