ACTRESS By JEANETTE D. MAY :

you might make something in that
way"
Hel0n's heart sank within her.
What-give up her dreams Of having
her name posted in enormous letters
as famous actress, to be photo
graphed for ten cent show! Horrible!
Nevertheless, going home to lot of
hungry children, with nothing to buy
food for them, sent her the next day to
studio where a picture play was just
beginning to be made ready for pres
entation to the public. Although the
manager had no experience at that
early date in producing such plays, it
occurred to him that the chief feature
in them was the acting, especially the
facial expression. Beauty was also an
advantage, and Helen was comely.
LET me see you look like a thief
caught red handed" he said.
Helen obeyed.
Good! Now laugh. Good again!
Look at me with naughty contempt.
Excellent! You are condemned to
death. You are an innocent girl listen
ing to the first words of love. That
will do. You have the power of ex-
pressing by your face what you feel.
In your case words are not needed.
What salary do you expect?'
"Whatever you choose to pay
~ will start you at $25 a week, but
I am sure you will soon be worth more
than that"
Helen was surprised. How easy was
the getting Of this situation compared
with her efforts to secure trial at
which she had failed! The manager
advanced weeks salary, anxious to
bind the bargain and fearing some 9TH
er manager would get her away from
him.
He gave her a part in the play that
he was about making photographs for,
and it was at once evident that she
would make great success. And she
did.
Helen Warfield within few months
was receiving $500 week and is now
prime movie favorite. She has seen
the day when famous actors and
actresses are proud to perform by pho
tograph She has a genius for in-
terpreting humanity by expression,
though she has no gift whatever for
rendering it in speech. The plays Sc
lected for her are such as may be rem
dered in this way. She has acted the
title role in some of the famous plays,
but they are those in which the
strength lies in the acting rather than
| the speech.
| 1t is needless to add that Helen War
field is making money, and feeding,
clothing and educating her charges is
a very simple matter. When she has
acted her parts sufficiently to be photo
graphed successfully in them her work
is done, while her competitors on the
| stage are obliged to work on for every
! cent they receive.

Invitation Paper.

The newest type Of paper for en-
graved formal invitations and especial
ly for receptions, teas, ETC., is the panel
sheet. An impressed border about a
half inch wide runs around the edge,
and the paper itself is cut long and
rather narrow. Although more expen-
sive than the usual formal style, it is
very distinguished in appearance.
Sealing wax is still in vogue and Of
fers much in the way Of charm and
personality in the appearance Of a let

New crocheted scarfs are being done
with irregular patterns which suggest
the art nouveau designs that come
from Vienna.

SILK LEADS IN FAVOR.
Though Cotton 10 Talked About, Other
Fabric Is Prominent.

While the attention is centered upon
cotton, one must not lose sight Of
silks. They occupy very prominent
place in the wardrobe Of the up to
date woman. All dresses intended for
afternoon functions are made Of silk
Delicate .voiles or ottomans, soft taife-
tas, silk velvets and wool velours are
all used in developing these dressy
frocks. Distinctive effects may be OBJ
tanned by combining these materials
with gold embroidered chiffon, jet or
pearls.
To 60 back to the less costly mate
rails, such as silk and fine cottons, in
which the majority of women are in
terested in these hard times, a dance
frock Of bordered organdie, taffeta silk,
striped wolfe or cotton Grape is now
considered the correct thing.

Spanish Boys Game,

Spanish lads have a game which they
call 'hobbybull." and it has some
thing on the American kiddies' hobby
horse, according to those who have
seen it. The boys of Malaga and
other Spanish cities find an immense
amount of excitement and amusement
in mock encounters with the hobby
bull, which is merely framework
mounted on wooden wheels and has a
pair Of horns dashed to its, forward
end. Armed with alscarlet cloth, one
of the boys iifuriates the hobbybull,
while another operates the animal = IL

Game Of Elements.

All seated around the room, one Of
the company holds in his hand soft
ball, to which should be fastened a
string, so that it may be easily drawn
back again. Sometimes a ball Of
worsted is used, with a yard or two
left unwound. The holder Of the ball
then throws it to one person and this
to another, naming ut the same. time
one Of the elements fire, air. earth,

touches him must before ten is count
ed mention a quality of that element.
Should any one speak when fire is NEIL

Schools Are Most Important
Part Of City's Work, w.
G.. Jolly Believes.

W G. Jolly, candidate for alderman
on the anti ring ticket, is Texas born.
Texas reared and has been engaged in
business in Texas. He came to El PasO
10 years ago from Austin and has been
engaged in the contracting business
during all of his residence in this city.
Mr.. Jolly has held no political office
in FL Paso When he first came here
he was senior member of the firm OF
Jolly & Morse, and later held the same
position in the firm of Jolly & Ware.
He is now general superintendent of
construction fc" the Phoenix-El PasO
Building company. Mr.. Jolly has been
directly connected with much of the
great building boom that Ell PasO has
enjoyed in the last 10 years.
Eel PasO needs more schools" said
Mr.. Jolly, and I am in favor of con
tinuing the work of building schools
until every child in Ell Paso is assured
of full time. At present many chill
dren are attending school on a half
time schedule simply for the reason
that there are not adequate accom-
mJdations for all of them. The very
backbone of "a city is its schools and
no city can boast of being modern and
progressive unless it insures full train
ing, during every day of every school
month, to every child in the city. The
school house, in my opinion, is the most
important feature of a city to be looked
after by the administration"

For the Job Of Alderman
Ben Levy Believes in Pro

Retrenchment.

For IL years Ben Levy, candidate for
alderman on the ring" ticket, has been
connected with the Union Clothing Co.
This makes him one of the Oldest mer-
chants in the city, in point Of service

Mr.. Levy came t. this city from st.

Up to two years ago Mr.. Levy had
not been in politics In the 1918 cleo
ton, however, he was aidermanic
candidate on the ring" ticket and,
with the remainder of the ticket. he
was elected by a large majority. Dur
ing his term as alderman he has been

Eel Paso as not got a high tax
rate" said Mr. Levy. eff comparisons
were made with other Texas cities of
this size it would be seen that Ell PasO
is not only not above the average but
has a very favorable rate. If The taxes
of the city can be reduced they should
be reduced but, under no circumstances
should any attempt be made to reduce
taxes if such action threatens the eff
cheney of the municipal departments.
FL Paso is spending money in i'm

partment apparatus, sewers, water

ments Ana FL Paso is getting value

Acid Stomachs Are
Dangerous
Common Sense Advice by a
Distinguished Specialist.

"Acid" stOmachs are dangerous be-
cause acid irritates and inflames the
delicate lining Of the stomach, thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action of the stomach, and leading to
probably nine-tenths of the cases Of
stomach trouble from which people suf-
fer Ordinary medicines and medicinal
treatments are useless in such cases,
for they leave the source of the trouble,
the acid in the stomach. as dangerous
as ever. The acid must be neutralized'
and its formation prevented, and the
best thing for this purpose is a tea
spoonful of bisurated magnesia, sim
pie antiacid, taken in a little warm or
cold water after eating, which not only
neutralizes the acid, but also prevents
the fermentation from which acidity
is developed Foods which ordinarily
cause distress may be eaten with i'm
punity if the meal is followed with a
little bisurated magnesia, which can
be obtained from any druggist, and
should always be kept handy.-Adv.

Kelly and Key Rate.
"The opposition is saying that the
Kelly administratio was not RESPONSE
bic for lowering the key rate; that the
legislature did it. I say to you that the
legislature had nothing to do with it.
The city council did it by cleaning up
the city, improving the fire department
and improving the waterWOrks system.
"The opposition viii probably name
you instances where the key rate has
increased insurance" he continued,
but If You will Investigate. you will
find that it has been because of a
trash box near the property or the
building of another house close at
hand
"The opposition is crying: Take the
school out of politics. Gentlemen, in
1910 the schools of FL Paso were $780,
600 in debt Today they are out of
debt If that is the result of politics,
L say we better keep them in politics.
AS for Kelly mixing in international
affairs, he has right, as an American
citizen, to take issue upon national af-
fairs. Kelly brought 60 Americans out
of the Juarez bastile while Grape Juice
Biz never brought one. Through his
influence he was able to do great
