These trips are perfect If they are planned In advance. The wardrobe will alwtys consist of the clothei we are most likely to use.

Those whose ikln Ii dry must apply a lubricant for the whole trip, as harsh winds are likely to Injure the fine texture. Avoid uilng soap and water after this exposure. The cream will be used when coming in but soap and water ihould be the before-bed-time method. We believe one ihould tvoid all lavish uie of makeup and give the skin a rest Rouge and heavy eye makeup are not ln keeping with touring.

MEMBEROF THE CANADIAN PRESS AND THE AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1939. TURKEY TIPS THE SCALE - There wu no undue haste about Turkey's decision at to where to place herself in the war relations of Europe, and it cannot be regarded as a snap judgment when, after lining to the fullest extent the allurements, combined with threats, which comprise the respective diplomacies '. Berlin and of Moscow, she has elected to be a partner of Britain and France, to the full extent of war if certain of her Balkan neighbors should be attacked, an alliance with 15 years to run. As pointed out recently by The Daily News, Turkey is both traditionally a friend of Britain, and today a modern state with a revolutionary internal program, and while she hu less European soil to defend than ever before in her history, and is developing herself into an Asiatic power, the is taking a lead for the solidarity of the Balkans, and particularly for the integrity of the very ones that were her enemies in the War of 1914-1918. Turkey's reservation that she is not to be drawn into a war with Russia through this alliance also means a .whole lot. It means that she hu stood out against Russia, and proposes to stand out so, but also that Russia, in view of this Turkish friendship, will now seek its, ad ventures in a different direction. This alliance just about seals Germany within her •Southern borders, for noW Hitler has another foe to face if he should start on the Balkans, Russia having closed the EMttohim. But probably one of ite greatest indirect effects will be to offer Italy overwhelming reasons to keep out of the war—Italy, which could be attacked by three fleets, in a Sea where it can be commanded on every side. ' Italy hu no cause for anxiety over the Turkish stand —unless a further strain on her already brittle relations with Berlin could produce ii If, u his actions suggest, Mussolini Is determined to keep out of the war, and if he Is u disturbed by the Berlin-Moscow manoeuvres as he should be, Turkey's action is a made-to-order escape from i Axrjs troubles. The much-emphasized clash of Turkish- Italian influence in the Southeast la trivial compared with the losses both Powers would suffer from Nazi-Communist domination of the Balkans. Turkish neutrality, reasserted on the basis of Ankara's rejection of Soviet ambitions and fortified by a military alliance with Britain and France, is the best reuon Italy could have for staying neutral. The Turk's loyalty to the British means that war on the side of Germany would spell certain defeat for Mussolini. Alone in the Mediterranean, Italy would face the combined Und, (iea and air forces of Britain, France, Turkey, and almost certainly strategic Greece. Vulnerable on four aides, cut (if from her own African bases, she would also be denied military aid from the Nazis, while subjected to a trade blockade. The possibility of Turkey being pushed into war by deterioration of her Russian relations or a Nazi-Soviet drive on the Balkans is added reason for keeping Italy out It could even mean Italy's coming in on the side of the Allies, if for no higher motive than the' protection of her Balkan-Mediterranean interests against the ascendency of .Turkish influence at the war's end. The effect o£.Turkeyfs stand on the Balkans them- selves is no less important. Indeed it has shaken down the Whole war diplomacy to such an extent that it might well be looked back upon as a decisive turn in the conflict.

Clever Bit of Card Magic Rates First Trick o' the Week .By PRAZIER THOMAI Thli week'i puzzle wu ient to me by Jtck Dean, and In my opinion it U a very clever bit of card Magic Perhaps, If you like this effect you will write Jack and tell him io.

EFFECT: The magician borrowi a deck ot carda and asks that they be shuffled and mixed to the audience's satisfaction. / He now explains that being a magician, he hu at all timei perfect control over the pasteboards. To prove hii itatement, he placei the lint finger of hli right hand over the deck which is held ln the lett hand. Now, very slowly, he raises the finger. . . and to the surprise ot all a card rises from the deck! The card rises right ilong with the finger, seemingly following It md being under its control at all times. Of course, the spectators are greatly mystified, EXPLANATION: To explain thto trick, Jack sent along a very clever drawing, and it ii trom thU original drawing that the picture above has been reproduced.

P., ipoke ot ancient wan where all the people, rich and poor, wcrlficed all. He told ot the Roman army besieging Carthage, and after a long tlege the City wnt to uk termi of peace. The Romant uid: "You mutt bring all your armi and weaponi here and pile them before ut before we will talk terms," They did, and the Romans burned them before their eyei and then dictated termi. — They muit ill leave their City and not come within 80 milu ot ii The Carthagenlant refused their peace termi. They gave all they had. The women give their long hair for ropu. The rich gave all the metal in their homu. For ten long yean they fought on aiid the Romans had to luve. At the end they wera not to debt to Carthage. SimUarly Pruula gave all ln lta Seven Yean War in Ihe Eighteenth Century. But in the war of 1914- 18, Big Business made no lacri- ficet, but grew wulthy, and Canada was left with a staggering debt The people, meanwhile, gave and did all that wu uked of them. Giving detallt ot the Britiih war louu in human livet, from Field Manhal Halg'i llgurei, Mr. Winch contrasted them with the "louu sustained by industry, and gave particulan of large war profita ot many companlei. He charged that "Induitry made no wcrificei, but grew wealthy on tbe blood and tuffering ot the loldlen." And now In thb war, when the Government caUed for contracti making a profit of only 5 per cent no industry offered to take a lingle contract and the Government must offer more.—According to Hon. C.

It Canada could find miUioni for war tor destruction, the could find money for conitruction. If she could feed men In the army, the could find It for her unemployed. The C. C.
