WhV Tolerate Catarrh?

You have noticed, no doubt, that any
cold aggravates nasal ca,arrh, and the
flow of mucous amazes you that such
Objectionable matter could find lodg-
ment in your head. To ignore this
Catarrh when the cold subsidies is
wrong because it continues to slowly
injure the delicate Innings OF the nasal
passages and clog them W.
TO correct catarrh, cleanse the nos:
,rils frequently with solution OF warm
water and salt, insert vaseline on re.
firing, and take a spoonful OF SCOTS
Emulsion after meals for one month
SCOTS acts through the blood to feed
the tissues, and contains soothing
glyccrine to check the inflammation
and heal the sensitive membranes.

PHOTOPLAYS AND
PHOTOPLAYERS
Fake Acting Schools
Target for Wrath
Of Screen Stars,
Actress Asserts
BY GARDNER MACK.

Motion picture actors throughout
the country are much incensed over
the propa ganda OF the fake schools
of motion picture acting that
spring up throughout the country
and simply take money from mis-
guided young men and women
without giving them the slight
est instruction. That schools can
teach acting to the person VINO
has natural ability in that direc-
ton. the average actor or actress
will admit. But they Will not ad-
init that acting can be taught TO
anyone who is not naturally adapt
ed to work on the stage and they
are especially severe on the
schools of acting that have been
referred to for asserting that such
a thing can be done.
Beatriz Michelena. who has been
the star of several notable picture
plays, is one of the most outspoken
of her craft regarding the schools
and Miss Michelena has recently
started a movement against the
schools among the members OF the
acting profession working for mo-
tion pictures.
These schools" declares Miss
MiChelena, ARE doing INFINITELY
more harm than many of us real
ize. Their pernicious influence is
not to be at all measured by the
dollars they take away from their
victimized pupils. What Is to be
far more regretted, and condemn
ed is the false Impressions they
create through their advertise
al i
tions in the motion picture pro-
fesSion.
1T is largely due to them that the
impression has gained circulation
that there is great demand for
pretty faced girls as picture actress
es, and that. with no other requisite
than this pretty face and short
course of instruction. one might find
immediate employment at a fabulous
salary. we all know that there
is this misConception among many
and that innumerable girls believe
motion pictures a short cut to easy
money We also know Just how
far mistaken they are in this. Thoy
will also be disiiluSioned. but often
too late. Relying on the rosy eNpec-
tations engenderCd in the first in
stance by the fake schools and their
criminal publicity. they have started
out to become picture actresses with
out adequate equipment in either
courage or talent They have broken
away from previous moo,ingS and.
when the shock of disappointment
comes, often have no place to turn
Shattered hope means moral strain
that many girls are unequal to.
II believe that motion picture peo-
pie should employ every device to
show these fake schools in their true
colors."

ARMY PATTERN WILL BE
NEW STYLE IN SHOES

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug 24,-Wholesa1e
shoe dealers in Atlanta have announc-
ed that the styles for the coming seas
on will more nearly approach the
army pattern in shape, and that even.
tually that sensible shoe in all lines
will be reached. According to the
dealers people who wear shoes-and
that includes most everybody-ought
t. rejoice at the information.
The so-called army shoe is made
the shape of the foot-which is en-
tirely different from the common
shape of shoes. Until the army shoe
was fashioned, the shape of the foot
had nothing to do with the shape of
the shoe. AS a matter of fact, the foor
is abused.

RESTRICTION HAS GOTTEN
INTO THE COURTS AGAIN

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 24-The city
OF Atlanta's attempt to regulate the
living of negroes in residential sec
tons occupied by white people has
again got into the courts.
Two years ago the city council
passed an ordinance which was drawn,
i was thought, in conformity with all
court decisions, both state and federal,
bearing on the subject, but when the
validity of the ordinance was attacked
in the courts it could not stand the
test.
A second ordinance, drawn to con-
form to the decision of the supreme
court which nullifed the first ordin-
ance, was then drawn by the city at
torney and passed by the city council,
ard a number of negroes have been
prosecuted under this ordinance.
On appeal from recorders court to
the Fulton superior court the ordin
ance has been upheld, but the negroes
resisting the ordinance are now pre-
pairing to take a second appeal to the
state supreme court.
Meanwhile the citizens affected by
the movement of negroes into their
neighborhoods have no recourse ex-
cept what moral persuasion they may
Be able to bring to bear on their new
neighbors to move out
