ENTER THE BLONDE VILLAIN

Inc notorlety of the blonde BEAST of Ger.
many is likely to upset some pretty firmly fixed
traditions. The northern nations, predominantly
OF the blonde type them, selves, have given their
angels and heroines light hair and eyes, while
theIr Villains OF romance have usually been made
dark by contrast. Presumably the nations of
more sun-tanning climes have pursued an opposite
course. But our subconscious tendency to asso-
cate the virtues with the blonde type and the
wees with the brunette has been rudely checked
oy the history Of the last four and a half years
Formerly the popular fancy in or out of fiction
Wou!d have pictured a vampire" as a brunette,
out the other day a Newark, N. J. Judge declared
a vampire to be a woman who flirts on the
streets with men, bleaches her hair, camouflages
her lace, DISCUSSES herself with clothes and gives
wrong names, but is unable to change her eyes
or dimples.' w.
Men can protect themselves from street "yam-
ri-~o' ~ tuA4I-o ~"uy mi Syoo anu I in
on, but the Newark judge, with a view to their
greater protection, warns them to be on the look
out tor "bleached hair. This is the interesting
POINT, for it makes the vampire a blonde. The
blonde beast" of Germany has brought about
many changes, and it begins to look as if one of
them is to involve the bringing down of the flax |
angel from her long established ped |
and the substitution in her stead of a beauty
with dark eyes and mahogany-colored hair.

PRIVILEGED observation-disclosures

L.. EVERYBODY wants self determinations ir
these times, and no few are even clamorinp fo,
the right to watch over and regulate their neigh.
oors: 1t is not to be wondered at that the people
OF the District of Columbia should want to be
Amerlcanized' and demand the right to vote. in
spite OF the paragraph in the Constitution which
vests IN Congress exclusive legislative power
over the seat of Government. The Washinqton-
lans want to elect their own mayor instead of
having the President act in that capacity when he
appoints the Districts commissioners They do not
say so, but presumably they are willing for Con
gress to continue to cut down their taxes bv sad
dllng one-half of the expenses of the District on
the whole Union of States-one of the unusual
privileges which Washingtonians enjoy. In the
revolutionary period following the Wal for Sec
cesslon the Districts desire to vote and govern
itself was granted. In consequence it accumulated
! debt OF twenty millions in three years and Con-
gress found it desirable to take charge again.
From all accounts Washington has cleaner
government than any large American city and
certainly its citizens are peculiarly fortunate in
matter of taxes, the only price paid for such extra
advantages being the lack of the ballot. Many
outsiders in these times would gladly change
places with them. Another interesting point is
that the great majority of the residents of the
District can retain their citizenship elsewhere
and, when the desire to cast a ballot is strong
enough they can take a train and vote in the old
town. Is a matter of fact Washinetonians
to the privileged rather than to the disad-
class.

Before the war Great Britain had nearly a

to see that the bars put up against such incoming

Housewives to Buy Only Cooking Fats Made
From American Oils.
Washington, D. c., March 20, 1919.
Editor Cotton Oil Press:
Dear Sir - government of the United
States has an iron-clad law that keeps the ORR
entail laboring man out of this country. He is
excluded for one big, principal reason; after
which trail a lot of little reasons.
The big reason is that he will work so cheaply
that good American labor cannot compete with
him. The importation of Oriental labor would
undermine our industrial life; American labor
would go hungry.
Hundreds of government agents patrol the
Pacific coast night and day to prevent Oriental
laborers from entering this country.
Why does the Southern housewife take the
products of cheap Oriental coolie labor into her
kitchen and exclude an all-American product that
is trying to lift the great South to a higher plane
of prosperity?
At the outbreak of the war the Government
stabilized the products of oil mills in the South
and put an embargo on exports. In furtherance
of Mr.. Hoover's plans to pileup q surplus of food
fats IN this country the gates were opened wide
to imports. At that moment tankers ploweds tssseir
across the R>cific and flooded America with
vegetable oil; oil produced hy
he 04iart from Tfr;nvs+ s.

Comiskey Opposes
Lengthening Worlds
Series Sc h e d u | c

Chicago, Sept. 3.-Charles A
Comiskey, owner Of the Chicago
Americans, declared his opposition
to the proposal of the national base
ball commission that the worlds
series be increased from seven to
nine games. He said that it had
been the custom to play series OF
seven game to decide\ the world
championship and that he could see
no good reason for changing.
II believe that when an organiza
ton establishes a custom it should
be followed" President Comiskey
added. "Of course, if the league
votes for nine games, then we will
have to see what is to be done. |
sympathize with the fans who want
to see the games each fall and who
are disappointed because $4,000 ca
pacity ball park will not seat 10000
persons, but this situation cannot be
avoided"
Members Of the White Sox had no
game scheduled Wednesday and the
players witnessed the game between
the Chicago Nationals and Cincin-
natl to get line on the club they
expect to meet in the base ball
classic next month.
