S. |. BIRD FAVORS
EARLY CLOSING

Insists on Cooperation of
Competitors

That s. L. Bird 4 Sons. owners Of
the big mems furnishings store on

the Saturday early closing movement
ana stand ready TO fully support a
concerted movement towards the
early closing idea. which seems TO
nave lost some OF its impetus. was
the statement made by Seaman l..
Bird, president OF the company, Mon.
day.
i have always favored the early
closing idea, said Mr. Bird. "In
fact, ! was one OF the first in nv line
or business TO indorse the movement.
and in the face OF the fact that some
OF my biggest competitors kept open,
we have had this store closed Satur-
day night for more than a year
Finally, as others gradually open
ed II became very bad business and
very unfair to us that we should. al
most alone in our line. stay closed.
and came 10 the conclusion aboht
two weeks ago that ii was not only
bad for Us, but also for the early
closing movement that two or three
concerns should close their stores
while others did not. For that reason
We have kept our store open the last
two Saturday nights.
IL believe in early closing and we
stand ready 10 boost the cause, but
feel that We must have cooperation.

ing from the fact that we kept our
store closed for more than a year,
and that we have made a conscien-
tious effort 70 bring about early clos
ing. the public can fully realize how
unjust the antagonistic demonstration
was which was made before our store

There comes a time in every girle
life when she wants to have her pic
ture taken for someone she loves very
dearly. naturally she wants TO look

When you have your picture taken
try and be as unconscious OF the cam

When Miss irene Hough was Judged

doubt on the part OF the film people

"The amateur said Mr.. Totten, di

But when Miss Hough made her
appearance on the scene IL was found
that she was particularly modest and
simple minded in doing just what was
asked OF her To make the picture play
a success.
Usually nen one goes TO have
ones picture taaen the first mistake
one makes is by dressing in some
strange manner that makes her pics
lures look unnatural TO friends. Then
In the anxiety TO look her best she
overdoes the smiling pose
A frequent mistake is that of hav
ing ones hair done at the hairdress
er's. Just why anyone should want
her hair done at the hairdresser's al
any time is a mystery to me.
The only thing hairdresser does
Is TO make your head look like one
OF those wax figures in the depart
ment store windows. You certainly
never look human after the polite
coiffure has done with you.
The reason why actresses, as a rule
are considered beautiful is because
they have. learned how to face the
camera and look unconscious.
They are not any better looking
than the average girl.
II will be seen by all the pictures
for which Miss Hough has posed to

that she also can do this.
Here is an important little hint tc
