Euporean sisters The American wom-
an is recognized the world over. The
type is besides found in bewildering
| variety, yet each is unmistakable. The
blending of many familiar types of
American womanhood in the composite
photograph reproduced herewith af
| fords unique opportunity for judging
| The typical face.
Familiar as the type, or rather
| types, are. few perhaps can call up
definite mental picture of the general
| type itself. The composite face of
| American women, therefore, fills long
| felt want. A score or more of artists
have patronized the American girl.
| The drawings are almost always in
teresting, many of them are charming
and all may be readily Unidentified as
the American girl. yet no two are alike
or even similar. No other country in
the world, it is safe to say, affords
such an opportunity to it's artists. In
| England, for instance, there is a well
known type of beauty, somewhat pale
and eXpressionless, perhaps, but I'M
mistakable English. And there is only
one. In America there is often single
family in which every daughter il
lustrates an entirely distinctive beau
ty, yet without losing the family re-
semblance.
The composite photograph combines
as far as possible the most character
istic types of American beauty as il
Illustrated by twenty we'll known New
York women. 1t is too much, of
course, to claim that the list is COM
plete, but it is at least fairly represen-
tative Nor can it be claimed for
such blending that the ideal type of
American beauty has been attained.
So varied and distinctive are the types
that hundreds of types would have to
be considered in such balance. The
composite face, however, is as general
and representative as it well can be.
Compare it with TIE typical beauties
of other countries, allowing for the
impressionistic effect inseparable from
such a picture, and the result to the
most critical eye cannot fail to be re-
assuring.
The American woman as portrayed
In her composite photograph contrasts
strikingly with the typical faces of
other countries. The face Is perhaps,
less nervous than that of the typical
French woman, especially the young
French woman, but to the American
eye, at least. it seems better balanced.
in contrast with a characteristic Eng
lish face the difference is especially
marked. The two faces express an en-
tirely different mentality. The Amer
lean woman, set beside her English
cousin, suggests wider and more varied
interests and an unmistakable air of
independence which strangely becomes
her. Compared with the typical
Teutonic face, the American woman
| appears the more alert and
vivacious.
Among those whose photographs
make up the composite are Miss Helen
Morton, Mrs. ChAuncey NJ. Depew,
Mrs. Payne Whitney, Miss Alice Roose-
velt, Miss Nathalie Schenck, Mrs.
Cornelius Vanderbilt, IT.. and Mrs.
John Jacob Astor. = Kansas City

that the employers consented to arbi-

portion of them.
The result Of the industrial dis
turbances has been the organization
of the employers to combat the organ
izations of employees. They have at
tempted, and at times succeeded, in
forcing rules of their own making, by
resorting to lockout methods. They
have worked along well-defined lines,
which they summarize as follows:
The development of the lockout as
the most effectual way of breaking a
strike.
The establishment of a moral obli-
cation to see that nonunion men may

The right to appeal to the courts as

these methods was supported by the
