BEAUTY COUNTS FOR

Chicago Employers Say Plain

Chicago, Special: Do good looks aid
q woman in the struggle for business
success?
Chicago says NO"
Following a report from New York
that attractive features n faultless
ments for business successor the
theory that ugliness is stupidity-per-
ons who have much to do with the
employment of girls and women We're
asked for their views. The answer in
every case was that beauty has little
or nothing to do with 1t.
Plain Girl Brighter.
Mrs. Reynold Robins, whose hus-
band is one OF the city's 'parlor social
ists,' said:
There isn't a word of truth in such
a statement. There is a tremendous
capacity in the plain looking girl. and
in most cases the plain looking girl is
MUCK brighter than the pretty girl. The
latter can be intellectual and bright,
but much energy is lost In keeping up
her appearance.
Take the girl who is pretty, but
who lacks certain mental capacity, and
when she gets to be 25 years old there
is not an attraction about her. The
plain looking girl with the average
amount of intelligence is always at
tractive. To be neat and clean and

ulties is to be pretty"
Efficiency Counts.
w pay absolutely no attention to
that said Joseph Basch, of Siegel
Cooper company. What we want is
efficiency, and that is what we get.
While the pretty girl need not be dull.
it is in most cases in the plain girl that
the greatest brightness and intelligence
is found. Patrons are not interested in
a s%alesgirl's looks; what they want is
to be waited IN promptly n intelli-
gently.
we have had a regular stampede Of
marriages." said Mr.. Basch, and he
Went on to say that the girls who We're
bright stood a great deal more chance
OF marrying than those h nave only
! good looks. This sentiment was echoed
by the woman who has charge of en-
| Eloying the hello girls" in the tele-
phone colnpany's exchanges.
Good or bad looks hav nothing to
do with our employment of operators
she said. "The plain girl is the pretty
girl if she has the other qualifications
for he work here. Girls who are n
cent in youth and character are always
pretty girls. Lots of u girls marry"

Colonel Plummer, Of New York. who
hates the sight Of an automobile,
bought the other day, a handsome
brown mare to match Barbary Belle.
A day or two later he asked his groom
what he thought Of the new arrival.
John replied:
She's certainly a fine lookin' ,oss.
sir. but I'm afraid her temper's a bit
too touchy."
What makes you think so?" asked
the colonel.
"she don't appear to take kindly to
nobody, sir; she don't like me to go into
the box to feed her"
'Oh. she'll settle down in a day or
two. The surroundings are strange you
know. I do not think there is anything
wrong with her temper"
Il didn't at first, SIR" said John. but
you see she kicked me out O. the box
twice. and when you comes to think
about it-that's sort o. convincin'."

Scored by Cardinal Gibbons in
an Interview
COMMENDS The LAWS
In South Carolina and Canada, and
Says Family Life in Them Can
Be Favorably Compared With
Family Life in States Where 1t is
Easy to Obtain Divorces.
Easy to Obtain Divorces.

Cardinal Gibbons, in an interview
at Baltimore on Wednesday replied
to remarks of former Supreme Court
Justice Henry B. Brown on the sub
ject Of divorce before the Maryland
Bar Association at Old Point Com
fort last week. The Cardinal said:
Justice Brown has taken exceL.
tion to my views on divorce and re-
marriage. He is reported to have
referred to the founder Of the Chris
tian religion as an 'idealist, whose
sentiments. while suitable to less
favored times and circumstances. are
not adapted to this enlightened age.
The learned jurist will permit nc 10
say that the teachings of Christ have
been the basis of all Christian ieg's'a-
ton for nearly 1000 years, and con.
tinue to be the light and guide Of
millions of souls And there is NJ
subject which he treats more fully
and clearly than the question of mar
riage, foundation stone of our family
and social life.
"In three of the gospels he pro-
claims the unity of marriage and
permits separation Of married coup
lie only in the cause of adultry.
do not see why law which has been
enforced and cordially accepted in
every age and country where Christi
anity dominates, should be consider
ed obsolete or impracticable in the
United States.
The multiplication Of divorces"
the Cardinal continued, is largely
ascribed by some writer's not to our
divorce laws, but to the eager and
reckless manner in which minister's
of God otficiate at marriage services.
But are not these persons confound-
ing cause for effect? Divorces are
multiplied not by ministers. who
willingly assist in i'll assorted mar
RACES, but because loose legislation
on matrimony renders it easy for
married parties to annual the mar
riage bond.
''lf the civil laws Of al! our States
were as strict as they are in South
Carolina and Canada. the persons
contemplating marriage would Sc
riously and respectfully reflect: they
would study each others disposition
and temperament before engaging in
a contract which would bind them
for life. And certainly the peace and
good order in the family life in South
Carolina and Canada can be favor
ably compared With The domestic
conditions existing in those States
where divorces can be easily obtain
ed.

FIRES THE JURY
Acquitted DEPENDENTS Who Ad-
mitted Guilt.
SERVED THEM RIGHT
The Jurors Very Much Dumb-found-
. ed, Left the Courtroom Crestfallen'
The Action of Judge Memminser
Is Generally Approved by the Peo-
p,s of York County.

A special dispatch from Yorkvllle
to the Columbia Record says Judge
Memminger Wednesday morning dis
missed a panel of York county jurors
as unfit for further service IN MS
court, because it had deliberately
failed to convict of carrying conceal
ed weapons in case where two oe-
PENDANTS openly admitted that they
had pistols.
The case grew out of picnic TO"
at TirZah last August where there
was promiscuous shooting and TWO
RusselIs and a Robinson had been
indicted for assault and battery with
intent to kill and carrying concealed
weapons. There was a good deal
of conflicting testimony in the case
hut both Of the Russells admitted
that they had pistols.
The jury Tuesday night brought
in a verdict Of not guilty on all
counts. Wednesday morning Judge
Memminger had the jury called ana
puickly told it that if it saw Mt TO
make itself and the county OF YORK
r;diculous with such verdict he dld
not propose to allow it to make him
ridiculous.
If the jury saw proper to acquit
on the ground Of self-defense men
who had shot other men in the BACK
as in this case, that was not MS
lookout. for he could not help HIM
self. but when it came to acqulttlns
defendants of carrying concealed
weapons. where there had not even
baen denial Of the charge, 1t was
more than he would stand for.
He did not care to criticise the
i,ry or lecture it, but he would not
continue to try cases before 1t. ne
therefore told the members OF the
nanel to consider themselves as
missed from further attendance on
conrt and instructed them to get
their pay and go their ways. Then'
,nrninp TO the clerk, the judge OF
dered the drawing of special fenlfe
of II men with which to MI 'ie
n,aces of the men dismissed.
The Jurors were dumbfounded Tor
a few minutes and finally lett the
court room very much crestfallen'
Judge Memminger's action, though
coming in the nature of surprise
has met with unqualified pubic ap-
proval.
