lust Plain Clothes

Clothes may not make the man
but they have great deal to do with
the motion picture actress. In no other
walk COR ridel of life do clothes carry
SO much Importance as on the ami
mated screen.
Clothes are the principal expense OF
the motion picture acrtess, and actor
too. for that matter. Every little
change Of fashion must be observed
and the artist must keep right up
to-date.
The reason for this is plainly TO be
seen. The ladies Of inland towns and
cities of twenty thousand or so in
population have become dependents
on the motion pictures for fashion
hints. They no longer rely solely on
this or that fashion sheet but attend
the motion pintures TO ascertain how
the favored actress appeared in the
latest release.
Watch Custom.
The film manufacturers have taken
cognizance OF this prevailing custom
on the part OF the film fans and they
release feature film these days just
as soon as possible after It is COM
plcted. This is done to keep the fash
ions up-to-date.
Not only must the successful movie
star OF the present day be strictly up
to- date in fashions but she must take
care not to wear the same gown too
frequently. II she is not careful, she
will hear from the feminine sex
Women have no heistancy in writing
to the film manufacturing companies
suggesting that Miss So-and-So be in
structed to purchase a new dress "for
we have seen that dress she is wear
ing in three of the plays released by
your company"
The question OF gowns is an i'm
portant one in FINLAND and no small
item Of expense. II is believes that
movie stars are well paid for their
work and IT is a fact that their COM
pensation is commensurate; however,
a Koodly slice from the pay envelope
goes toward the purchase OF gowns
While on the subject Of gowns they
are important in another way, being
In fact the bugbear OF the producer
Maybe the director has Madge. the
tenement worker, wearing a MILDLY
blouse in scene three. The picture
contained 2l5 scenes. II Is necessary
in the second reel that the director
cut back to scene three. What were
you wearing in scene three" he asks.
Madge has forgotten. SO has nearly
everyone else; the assistant didn't
make a note OF II. And so time is lost
while II is definitely ascertained that
Madge wore in scene three.
Shoes Count.
Another important thing is shoes.

expensive production

The Democratic standard bearer,

from war but he averted a catas-
trophe that would have caused as
much injury to Pine Bluff, probably,
as war with a foreign lower: a great
railroad strike. The people of this
section particularly owe him debt OF
gratitude for this great service. One
way to partly discharge this debt is

bLAMES FARMERS
GREED FOR HIGH
COST OF FOOD
New York Commissioner of
Weights Declares Size of
Crops Misrepresented.
Blames Farmers greed

i'ioAiSo ~ OIL iiICI OCu
New York, Nov. 1S.-An assertion
that the Western farmer underesti-
mated their crops submitted to the
federal government and thereby
forced up the price of wheat, pota-
toes, onions and cabbage, in the latest
contribution to the high cost of food
investigation here. The charge is
made by Joseph Hartigan, commits
sioner of weights and measures, who
has just returne dfrom tour of 20
states, undertaken to determine the
reason for the high cost of living, and
incidentally to complete arrange
ments for farmers congress to be
held here in February.
Mr.. Hartigan's investigation con
WINGED him. he said, that the govern
ment estimate of the wheat crop in
this country this year was based on
statistics furnished by the farmers.
who "knowingly concealed at least %
per cent Of their wheat crop" Ac-
cording to Mr.. Hartigan, this surplus
has been held in reserve to be dumped
into a market, supposedly short many
millions of bushels, at a price other
wise unobtainable.
81 do not charge the farmers with
being out and out dishonest" de-
clared Mr.. Hartigan, "but the least
that can be said of them is that their
action was unpatriotic. They are
doing the same thing in many parts
of the country in regard to potatoes,
cabbages and onions. have not the
slightest doubt if these reserve sup
plies were realised we would hear
considerably less about crop short
ages and the cost of these farm pro-
ducts would be reduced to the retail
purchaser at % per cent at least
from the prices no wprevailing.
Commissioner Hartigan said that
the cost of food in New York is so
per cent more than it ought to be,
despite the fact that it is 20 per cent
lower than it is in most other parts
of the country. The reason for this,
he explained. is that the city is able
to buy cheaper because so large a
supply of food is sent here. !
