Were it not for this service these neighborhood youngsters would do without adequate dental care, would learn- too late the value of brushing teeth, drinking milk and eating bone - building foods. _ Behind the clinic project is a group of civic-minded women, members of the Alpha Epsilon Chapter, Delta Theta Tau Sorority.

then director of the city board ‘of health, they learned the dental field in Indianapolis needed help. With ‘an initial investment of $600, some new and some second-hand equipment, plus donations from business firms and individuals, they opened the center clinic.
173 Treated
Then came World War In With a record of more than 800 cases the clinic closed in the summer of 1943.
month the resourceful group reopened the clinic in an even better location on the main floor of the community house. Last year 173 school-age children from 6 to 14 years old were treated. So far this year there are 154 cases. Five dentists—Dr William F. Hanning, Dr. E. A. Elliott, Dr. 8. N. Constant, Dr. Sheldon Hall and Dr. Thomas Es-mon-—and two hygienists Mrs. Clifford Ulrich and Mrs. H. 8. Frum-—each donate their professional skill for a half day a week. The clinic is held Wednesday mornings during the school year.

Adhanaeum Miniature Actors Learn Cues For Second Dramatic Presentation
By JEAN MAN EY

THERE'S A WHOLE new crop of princes “and” around town these days.
They're members
of the Athenaeum Junior Theater. Mrs. Alma Fitzgerald and Mrs. George Farkus are the real-life _godmothers of the Junior Theater. They are both active in the Athenaeum Adult Theater and decided that it was high time the children took to the stage. They began last September to organize the group. The miniature actors were recruited from the members’ families.
At Christmas the Junior Theater presented its first effort —a short skit at the children’s party. The play was a big hit. Young members in the audience clamored for more and the actors picked up the cue.
Story of Play
“The Magic Whistle” went into rehearsal soon after the first of the year. However, it takes quite a long time for the very small thespians to learn their lines so the date for the final production is still uncertain. The play tells the story of an evil magician who uses a magic whistle to terrorize
the inhabitants of a peaceful -
kingdom. John van Biezen is the character who collects all the boos and hisses. Ilse Bried, twin sister of _-Ricky, is the fairy princess. Isle is 4 and not quite certain what everyone's doing,
but she thinks the whole pro-
Mrs. Fitzgerald is directing the play. She claims she's having the time of her life while the mothers of the actors marvel at her patience.
The members of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Athenaeum are standing by to help with costuming problems. Each mamma is committed to dress up her own youngster for his part, but the auxiliary will take. a hand with the more difficult ensembles. Mrs. E. J. Ruddle is chairman.
Sets for the Junior Theater

Since that isn’t very likely to happen on the corner of Washington and. Meridian Sts., Mrs. Kurt F.

Hoosiers Veto It Hoosiers, however. have already vetoed the whole thing. For the uninitiated the principle is fairly simple.

Then a triangle is penciied in between the eyelashes and eyebrow, This is filled with eye shadow.

Going back to Hoosier conservatism, it will take nerve to wear the finished product out of the dressing room. After a four-day survey not one-woman-was found either during the daytime or partying at night wearing “l'oeil de biche.”
Natural Look Popular ‘Mrs. Pantzer, popular Civie Theater leading lady, believes that the French got the idea from the Near East. There, Moslem women who still go veiled on the street, use “koh!” around their eyes, Their biack rings make the eyes larger and more dramatic. However, Mrs. Pantzer points out, that's the only feature they have that shows. © “If we. makeup our eyes

Maybe it's because we're from the corn belt," but we like to

we're going to stay that way.” Mrs. C. D. Bridgman, anothér one ‘of Indianapolis” ~ most attractive matrons, thinks excessive makeup makes the eye grotesque. “I may be mid-Victorian,” she says, “but I.feel that the less makeup one uses the more interesting the face appears.”
'Too Obvious’ Mrs. Renalto Pacini, dark Latin beauty, admitted that she had practiced making cat eyes in front of her mirror. However, she thinks it's

No Male Reactions ‘A former cover girl says that she used eye makeup behind bright lights especially . for black: and white illustrations. Yet away from the camera she thinks it makes women look “perfectly terrible. They either seem like they are 80 years old or like they have holes instead of eyes.” It was possible to get »
