The Fashionable "White Makeup"

The Fashionable "White Makeup"
nHow is it all the women look pale
IL now?" innocently asked an out-of-
town visitor in one of New York's fash
ionable restaurants. These interestingly
pale faces, to the sophisticated. are the
result of the white makeup which has
been borrowed from Paris. Perhaps there
is no type of beauty so lovely as that of
the clear. colorless skin with shadowy
eyes and warm lights in the hair. But
the natural type of this beauty owes
much of its loneliness to perfect health,
which glows through clear transparency
of the skin and in the scarlet of the
lips. Unfortunately most of the made-up
white faces look like CHASTITY death
masks, and when the scarlet lips are
CHASTITY. There are a few women who.
when cleverly made up in this manner,
do look more interesting and spirituelle,
but the effect on most faces is grotesque
and pathetic.

DOING GOOD WORK.

Prosecutor Booraem deserves
credit for the determined manner in
which he is endeavoring to solve the
Old Bridge arson case. It Is admit
ted that such a crime as this Is the
hardest kind to work on, and IL is
not surprising that mistakes have
been made. The Old Bridge case,
however, demands strenuous action.
The community is living in contin-
ual fear; insurance companies have
~boycotted it and an unenviable 10
toriety is brought upon the entire
county.
Let the work go on until the
guilty parties are sent to prison.
1t is to be regretted that any limo
cent person must suffer, but IL the
ban can be lifted from all by the
sacrifice OF g few, that course Is
sometimes necessary. To have al
lowed the Old Bridge crimes to pass
apparently unnoticed would have
been a gross miscarriage OF justice.
Something had to be done. The
prosecutor has done It. Whatever
the outcome he will have tho salts

worth doing we'll"

worth doing we'll"
We have all learned that from
childhood. At the present time this
applies to the movement TO establish
Fairgrounds in this city. We all
know that the start of anything is
the hardest and the most costly. To
equip a playground properly will re-
Quire a considerable sum OF money,
then must come the maintenance.
For this year both of these expenses
must be met, If we are to have any
playground worthy of the name.
Next year only the cost of maintain
ing the Fairgrounds will confront
the council and for hat reason the
expense will not be so great.
Perth Amboy does not do things
by halves. Either the Fairgrounds
are worth having or they are not. If
they are to be established there
should be sufficient funds to make
them a credit to the city. other
wise, it would be well to postpone
action.
1t has been figured out that two
Fairgrounds could be maintained
for $4,000. But after one is estab-
lished the second one comes much
easier because some of the expenses
involved In establishing the first one
can be devoted to the second. Be-
sides, by buying supplies in larger
quantities they can be secured more
cheaply. Some material can be
bought in such large quantities that
to get enough for two Fairgrounds
will not cost much more than buying
for the single one. We say this
merely to show that because two
Fairgrounds can be equipped and
maintained for $4,000. 1t does not
follow that one playground can be
established and maintained for half
that amount.
Much of the success of play
ground depends on the person in
charge. This means that a sufiici-
ent salary must be paid to get a per-
son who understands the work. Such
a salary is a part of the maintenance.
1t is the equipment that we are
thinking of at the present time and
for this feature the aldermen should
make ample provision.
1t is to be hoped that when the
ordinance fixing the budget comes
up ON second reading the aldermen
will see their way clear to amend 1t
SO that the Fairgrounds will be more
amply provided for than at present.
AS long as $1,000 is to be appropri-
ated anyway, 1t would be q good In
vestment for the city to pay q few
hundred dollars more and make the
-~qhsgsEound what it ought to be.
without giving 1t the proper start
q wrong impression will be gained
as to its usefulness at the beginning
and thus the whole Idea of what a
playground means VIII be lost.
Such an Institution Will be a great
benefit to this city and once 1t is
well established we believe the peo-
pie will be glad to give 1t their en-
~dorsement. It is necessary, however,
to have sufficient funds to make the
start right,

FARMERS MARKET AGAIN.

In a recent communication to the
EVENING NEWS =. r. Holm made
some very interesting comments on
the farmers market. When the al
dermen introduced the rules and
regulations for the market no action
uas taken ana rns matter was isssAl
over SO that the citizens could have
time to discuss the subject. Thus
far Mr.. Holm Is the only person who
has seensdt to take up the matter in
print.
There are two important features
brought out by Mr.. Holm which
should receive attention. In the first
place he declares that the farmer has
hce. guilty Of buying : crate q esgs
from one Of the local stores, at q
price which evidently shows thai
they were cold storage, and the next
day this same farmer raj found
selling these eggs as fresh country
eggs at the market. We all know
that there are dishonest people In
the world and there Is no reason
why the farmer cannot be just as
dishonest as the rest of US. Ii he
wants to be. To " such an in
stance as this there should be some |
thing In the rules that would permit
the city to bar any man from the
market at any time that It sees At,
so that If q farmer is found guilty OF
double dealing, such as is here men-
toned. the man can be kept away
from the market.
The second point made by M.
Holm is that a person bought some
thing from o farmer and after tax
ing It home found that he had been
grossly cheated. The farmer had
gone and there was no redress. 10
q certain extent this fault win be
eliminated by having fxed places for
the different farmers, but TO make
doubly sure that none can escape
responsibility every farmer should
be compelled to display his name
and address prominently at his stand
80 that every one may know with
whom they are dealing. Thus. II a
person buys something and finds 1t is
not what It was declared to be it
would be possible t get some salts
oa
We think that with these two ad-
ditions to the rules the points made
BY Mr.. Holm would be overcome.
Perhaps, If other people will make
their suggestions with the same
Freedom that Mr.. Holm has done,
other points might be brought on
and the rules for the market made
aa complete as possible:
