Uneasiiness Felt IN North
Over Shortage Of Ice
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Feb. lit is too early
to become alarmed over possible
ice famine next summer because OF
the unusually mild weather Of Decem-
Der and January, according to big
dealers in Chicago and other Central
West cities.
Reports have indicated that consid-
cradle uneasiness was felt in the
Northwest and in other districts where
the supply depends almost entirely on
natural resources instead of artificial
manufactures.
AS an indication OF the unseasonal
weather. it is pointed out that Lake
Superior. from White Fish Bay to Evil
Name, has for some time been free
of ice. The situation is without pre-
cedent in lake navigation history. The
ships wintering in the bay at Duluth
have been floating free at their moor
ings.
AS far north as Lethbridge, Alta,
the ice dealers have been hoping for
long cold spell. At Lethbridge the
ice in the river broke up late in jan
uary and the channel was clear in
two days. 1t may be necessary to
depend on the mountain lakes to the
west for meager supply.
Operations in the north woods have
been hampered by lack Of cold weather
this winter. according to reports re-
ceived here, while snow was heavy.
the ground was not frosted solid and
the sog in marshes prevented firm
, roadways through the woods.
The long warm spell also had its
effect on big coal dealers. In num-
Der of Central West states where coal
shortages were feared last Autumn.
there is now surplus and number Of
mines for time ceased operation.

CHAPTER VIII.
BY MANYA RUDINA


Famous New York Artist MODEL
The moment when girl model is
called upon to decide whether she
will pose in the nude, is the most
difficult in her career.
One day l received a note from a
painter asking me to pose for fig
ure" which means to pose in the
nude. My first artist friend had rec
commended me.
1 imagined all sorts of unpleasant
possibilities. 1 was not sure how l
should act. and what my feelings
would be. I spent sleepless night
and then I went to a girl friend
an artists model-who had been pos
ing for three years. What must
do? Tell me how you felt, and what
happened" I asked her.
Il first posed nude before a class
of students" she said. 81 thought
that would be better than before just
one man. But when I went behind
the screen to disrobe. I was so ner
vous and frightened that it took me
a long time to get ready. l was
shivering with fright.
81 tried to walk out from behind
The instructor and the students were
waiting for me. But 1 could not
move step. Finally, the artist came,
to the screen to ask If I were ready.
My mouth simply would not open.
Getting no answer, the instructor

standing as if paralyzed. He gently
took my arm and led me out. When
I reached the throne l was in a
fainting condition.; all noticed it, and
the artist helped me down and led
me to a couch, throwing a covering
over me. Then he sat down beside
me and began to tell me that there
was no need to be frightened; that
there was nothing wrong or improper
in my posing; that the class had
artists models posing in the nude
for them every day, and no one
thought anything about it."
When 1 had heard this story, I
resolved that nothing of that kind
should happen with me.
Men who are not artists think
there is something wrong about

student at an art school-mention-
ed the girl had posed nude before
his class. The fiance flew into a
rage and broke his engagement to
my, friend. In his philosophy any
man was necessarily a bad girl.
There is nothing in the human
form of which to be ashamed. Evil
dwells only in the mind. 1 know
from experience that it is possible
for an artist to paint fully draped
figure and express more of evil in it
than in any nude. It is rather cloth
ing that adds suggestiveness to the
figure. Most women dress much more
~suggestively than any artists model

The wearing, or the absence of cloth

The next day I went to my first

me.
