P Convention Opens Sunday The National Convention of the Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. will open Sunday, in Seattle with Mrs. Bonnie Smith Researches Inc]ian Lore She is known up and down the Canal as "Bonnie Bee". For the past four years she has livedon Highway 101 near the Valley Center, where she owns and operates a garden and gift shop specializing in bedding plants and Indian baskets. Prior to this she ran a combination grocery store, fruit market and hamburger stand in Lilliwaup for nine years. She is, above all, interested in Indian lore. Therefore it is not surprising that the craft she has chosen to share is the making of Indian dolls. INDIAN DOLL • Fold dark brown yard back and forth until there are 19 strands of yard, each measuring 19½ inches. DO NOT CUT YARN. Bring ends together and tie in center with lighter weight yarn, clipping close. Place knotted section in the middle of a two and three-quarter inch styrofoam ball, holding firm with left hand. With right hand divide yarn over front and back of ball, leaving bare ball showing in a one inch area on each side. Pull yarn taut and tie with yarn close to ball, forming the neck. For arms, fold yarn back and forth until there are 14 strands, each measuring 51/2 inches. Divide the yarn body of doll in half and insert arms. Tie under arms. Tie ends of arms one inch from ends, forming hands. Clip yarn on ends and fluff. Divide lower yarn in two equal portions, forming legs. Tie ends one inch up from the bottom, and IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll It's time to begin thinking about Christmas - time to start on those hand made-gifts, the ornaments, centerpieces, decorations; and here in the Christmas Treasurers column you will find each week complete directions for making something of interest. These instructions are supplied by talented local people who are ingenious of mind, skillful with their hands, and generous with their information. Anyone with a handicraft idea to share may call Jan at the Journal. 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 clip yarn to form feet. F'or hair, black yarn should be folded back and forth until there are 19 strands, each of which is 12 inches long. Tie in center with black yarn, leaving a loop by which to hang up the completed doll. Spread Elmer's Glue on back of head arid on bare sides of head; Were $10.99 Bonnie Smith divide hair in even strands, and attach. When thoroughly dry, divide at nape of neck and tie with ribbons to give effect of braids. A strip of bias tape makes the headband, which is to be decorated with bits of felt or tiny beads. Place a small feather in the back hair so that it will project above the head. Round black circles of felt makes the eyes. The nose is a furniture nail, and a v-shape cutting of red felt forms the mouth. Make a skirt by gathering at the top edge a 2V2 inch strip of bright felt. Cut with pinking shears ¼ inch strips of felt in contrasting colors to make sash and trimming for skirt, both to be added with glue. The finishing touch is a necklace of tiny shells o beads strung on thread. Bonnie Smith is constantly studying and researching the history of all Indian tribes of the United States, but is giving most of her attention to those of the Northwest. She is compiling this knowledge into book form partly for her own reference and partly to present information to other collectors of Indian artifacts. She is on the mailing list of the Department of Interior for Indian Affairs, and receives bulletins and pamphlets dealing with the latest findings on Indian lore. Upon completion of her current project, she plans an original manuscript based on the Indians of the North West - their babels, crafts, and heritage. This fall site traveled for two weeks, visiting various reservations to purchase baskets for her private collection and to collect material for her book. Her goal is to encourage Indians to maintain and preserve their arts and handicrafts, and she hopes to create this interest in others, and to further the appreciation of Indian skills. She collects artifacts-beadwork, carvings, and baskets with the symbols of many tribes. She has pages and pages of drawings depicting the symbols once used by primitive peoples in lieu of writing. She explains that each tribe has certain symbols significant to them, and these appear on their handicra, f(s. another of her hobbies - gardening, tier premises are a profusion of flowers, with cleverly designed beds of blooming plants, a fish pond, and an Oriental garden complete with figurines and dwarf evergreens. Her husband is Floyd Smith, who has been with the Hoodsport Lumber Company for the past 37 years.

Yes, to achieve real depth of color, mascara should be applied to both the tops and the bottoms of the up'per lashes. Apply to the tops of lashes first. Then, apply to the bottoms with a sweeping upward motion. This will curve the lashes upward. WHEN TO APPLY EYE LINER Q. Should I apply my eye liner before or after I put on my false lashes? A. For the best results, apply an eye liner both before and after you set your false lashes in place. First, with a pencil liner, draw a line very close to the roots of your natural lashes. Then, after your false lashes are in place, use your liquid liner to draw a line along the with eye catching brassy buckle 2 Styles to choose from. "TURTLE PRINT" first again in fashion news.
