| NEW YORK, July 18—

| In a shadowy studio, conductor Fritz Reiner stood with hands upraised, head cocked slightly to one side. . He was conducting a phantom orchestra while nearby, a phonograph record spun out its music. 7 = pe A patrican young bl

. woman sat watching him in-

tently. Presently, the music

ended, the conductor's hands

fell to his sides and the young ‘woman shut off the record player. : “I have it now,” she said. “I can begin work at once.” The young woman was Ray Shaw, an eminent sculptress of hands, the most difficult subject a sculptor can attempt. Ray Shaw's roster of successful hand portraits includes those of such famous persons as Lily Pons, Clare Boothe Luce, Irving Berlin, Helen Hayes, Fannie Hurst, Bernard M. Baruch, the late President Roosevelt, Msgr. Fulton J. Sheen, Albert Einstein and Joe Louis,

Hands Tell Tales

“It's the character and expression which makes it so difficult to capture hands in clay,” Miss Shaw explains. “People learn to control facial expressions but they forget their hands, which are forever telling all kinds of interesting things about them.” But don’t ever believe it, she adds, if someone glances at your palm and tells you you're going on a cruise. She thinks it's impossible to predict the . future by palm-reading. To produce her telling por-

Have the water merrily boiling; use a tea bag or teaspoon of tea per cup, with an extra for the pot; don’t skimp the brewing time— three minutes or more will give you a fine full flavor. (For iced tea, use half again as much tea, and plenty of ice.) Frosty Iced Tea: Pour bubbling,

traits, Ray Shaw studies her subject in action. Thus, she watches Irving Berlin at the piano, Albert Einstein with the pencil he calls his only weapon, Rise Stevens fingering the rose which was important to an operatic role. Miss Shaw, who wants some day to start a museum of famous hand portraits, says that the most popular fallacy concerning hands is that the long, slender hand is “artistic.”

Elman Hands Square “It just isn't true,” she says. “A woman once told me that her daughter, who couldn't play

anything, had ‘musical’ hands. I expected the girl to wave her

hands in the air and produce music, like a juke box. Actually, most musicians have square hands with short fingers, like Mischa Elman’s.”

Though she was born in Lithuania, Miss Shaw has lived in New York since she was a child. She got interested in hand sculpture in her teens, because she felt that her own hands were essentially those of a peasant. Today, she is the only sculptor in the country specializing in hands.

“Joe Louls has surprisingly delicate hands,” Miss Shaw says. “He told me that a fighter’s hands need not be battered — just educated. And this is true of all hands.”

The Doctor Says— Anemia Not

One Disease Various Types Are Classified |

By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M.D. THE BLOOD contains small] round disks called réd blood cells, | or erythrocytes. | Normally, there are about five million .of these cells in each] cubic millimeter of blood. (There are more than 16,000 cubic millimeters in a cubic inch.) These! cells contain oxygen and a red coloring matter — hemoglobin —! which are indispensable to life. When there are too few red! blood cells or not enough hemoglobin the condition is called “anemia.” Anemia is not a single disease. Many different things can cause a

lack of red blood cells or hemo-| .

globin. One form is called pernicious anemia, or primary anemia. The cause of this condition is not known, though the discovery of the value of liver—and more| recently Vitamin B12 — has] changed it from a disease which used to be fatal into one which can be successfully treated in almost all cases,

” ” ” i WITH THE exception of perni-| cious anemia, the problem boils| down to finding out what has| caused the lack of red cells or| hemoglobin, or both. One of the most simple and yet a very fre-| quent cause is bleeding from) somewhere in the body. {

If a person loses more blood B¥;

than the system can replace, ane-| mia develops. If this is sudden,

as from a wound, the difficulty ®

can be remedied promptly by| stopping the hemorrhage and giving a blood transfusion. If hemorrhage is slow, it is necessary to find where the bleeding comes from and to stop it if possible. If this kind of anemia is severe, it may be necessary to give trans-| fusions or take other measures,

tions, iron being an important! part of hemoglobin. {

DR. ANSWERS—

Question: Regarding the article you wrote on fibroid tumors, do you think twice a year is often enough for a woman to be examined by her doctor? : Answer: Fibroids grow slowly and unless the physi- . clan has some special reason for advising more frequent visits, twice a year should be enough.

. » s Question—Many years ago I read that in order to mini mize attacks of sinus trouble one should refrain from eating sea foods. Answer—Barring the possibility of an allergy to sea .foods making the symptoms of a sinusitis worse, this must be considered only an old wives’ tale. :

| We, the Women— '"Underrated’ Husbands

Dull Home Fellow

Shines at Parties

By RUTH MILLETT ANY WIFE who has ever wondered why her husband, who may be rather a dull féllow at home, can shine so when he gets out in a crowd can find the answer in a discussion of family life made by Andre Maurols in his book, “The Art of Living.” “One can be one’s self in the family circle. Yes, but it is not possible to be anyone else in that intimate atmosphere; one - cannot rise above one’s self. + « » The members of a family may not underrate a genius in their midst, but they minimize him by their manner of appreciating, which is not under-

fact that there is such a man

That is the way it is and must be within the family circle. But some women carry that underrating” of their husbands. beyond the family circle, and then it is hard on a man’s ego. Mrs. Jones can't let Mr. Jones tell a story without inchIng into the limelight, adding little touches, contradicting a statement, or explaining that John had taken a few liberties with the facts in order to make a more amusing story.

” ” » MRS. SMITH does her underrating in another way. She isn’t content to let Mr. Smith shine as the success he has become. She must always be reminding his audience of how it was along’ the way, when she was pinching pennies and still having a hard time to make ends meet. Mr. Smith can’t shine in all his present splendor, even away from home, because his wife keeps bringing up the past. Mrs. Brown *tells all” and 80 keeps Mr. Brown from ever “rising above himself.” She shares with anyone who wants to listen to all of Mr. Brown's peculiarities, the way he is such Ia baby when he Is sick with nothing worse than a cold, and so forth. Mr. Brown hasn't any chance at all to “rise above himself” when Mrs. Brown is there.
