TOM MOORE PROVES
HE'S NO TENDERFOOT

Lets walk bit. left my shock
absorbers at home" says Tom Moore
in his new Goldwyn Picture, 60
West, Young Man." The incident is
only one of the amusing moments in
the comedy-drama which comes to the
Pastime tomorrow. 1t grows out of
the unusual situation in which young
Dick Latham finds himself.
The pampered son of rich parents,
he leaves home as the result of a quar-
rel, and through series of amazing
adventures finds himself, after an in
oredibly short time, the rough and
ready sheriff of wild Western town.
Riding is difficult, handling a gun is
harder still and reforming the town
seems hard at the outset, but isn't.
1t is when Dick is riding with Rosa
(rlayed by Ora Carew), a true daugh-
ter of the mountains and plains, that
he voices the confession that riding Is
net his forte. Just what he means by
shock absorbers is not hard to mag
inc. He Is sore all over. But when
the time comes Dick by no means Is
a tenderfoot. He is able to cope with
the most desperate situations, as ev-
e.y well-ordered screen hero should.

CHILD WELFARE
REPORT SOON TO
Be ANNOUNCED
Conditions Of Children In Kentucky
Are to Described Soon-Inves-
tigators Have Been Here.

According to a statement given out
Sunday by Raymond G. Fuller, edi-
torial secretary of the National Child
Labor Committee, the report of the
committee on Child Welfare in Ken
lucky" will be ready for distribution
in about ten days.
1.-THE keynote of the report" Mr..
Fuller said, lis the idea that child
welfare is a profitable bill of invest
ment for any state"
1.-THE report" he added, ''is a letter
written at the request of Kentucky
people to all the people of Kentucky
suggesting that more stock be taken
! in the enterprise. 1t describes exist
ing conditions affecting children In
respect to health, schooling play, Ia
Dor, dependency, delinquency and so
on, gives an analysis of State laws and
administration and outlines a compre-
hensive legislative program"
The National Child Labor Commit
tee made the survey Of conditions in
Kentucky upon an invitation from the
the Kentucky Child Labor Association,
the State Federation of Women's
Clubs, the State Board of Health, the
Louisville Welfare League and other
Kentucky agencies and through its re-
port is giving such assistance as is
possible to the people Of the State in
their efforts in behalf Of child welfare.
Spanking of the National Child Labor
Committee, Mr.. Fuller said 1t was or
ganized by a citizen of Alabama, Ed
gar Gardner Murphy, and in 1908 was
incorporated by Congress as an organ
ization for the promotion and stan
dardization of child labor legislation.
at does not claim infallibility," Mr.,
Fuller said, indeed, its principal rec
concentration In this instance is that
some body of Kentucky citizens be de-
signated by the Governor to consider
the whole field of child welfare legis-
lation and formulate a program thor
oughly adapted to the State. The find
ings and recommendations in the re-
port are for the use of the citizens of
Kentucky themselves, such use as they
may see fit to make of them"
while the National Child Labor
Committee opposes child labor" Mr.
Fuller said in closing, at favors chill
dren's work" "Children's work be-
comes child labor, however, when it is
too severe, too monotonous, or when
it deprives children of education and
play.
THE wage earning function of the
family or of the community does not
belong to the children. 1t is the duty
of society to see to it that the poverty
of parents does not rob the children
Of their rightful opportunities.
Through mothers pensions chill
drens scholarship and in other ways
society can make It possible for chill
dren to go to school and in this man
ner be helped out of poverty"

FRITZ SCHEFF INSISTED
ON PLAYING IN KENTUCKY
PrIma Donna Appearing Here Tonight
Had Manager Change Schedule to
Include Kentucky Cities
Visited Husbands Grave
Yesterday.

FRITZ Scheff, the great Musical
Comedy star who appears at the
Washington tonight in "Glorianna'
had her manager change her schedule
so that she might play Lexington and
Maysvllle on the present trip because
of her love for the old state OF Ken
lucky.
Pie Lexington Herald says:
81 love Lexington" said Miss Scheff
last night. "There is something about
your town that gets in ones blood and
when 1 discovered that my route call
ed for jump to Knoxville instead of
the Blue Grass l insisted that 1t be
changed. In consequence we are play
ing several one-night stands in the
small Kentucky towns and the trip Is
very hard, but am more than glad to
do it and feel amply repaid for the ad-
ditional trouble in the splendid recep-
ton that has been accorded my play
here"
Miss Scheff came in by way of Paris
Monday morning and visited the grave
of John Fox, Jr., to whom she was
married several years ago and subse-
quently divorced.
She declared after the performance
that it had so unnerved her as to make
a continuation of the performance diff
ficult. "Mr. Fox's memory meant so
much to me-" she said with tears in
her eyes, land the horrible coinci-
dence of this fiippant widows part l
have to play following the trip to his
grave and the memories engendered
by a return to this beautiful country,
where we spent so many happy hours
together, made me absolutely miser-
able"
Eyes that flashed over the footlights
to enthrall the hardest of the theater-
going critics brimmed over with real
tears, and there was a sob in the voice
that had thrilled so glorious when she
finished.
But, anyway, she smiled, 1.-The
warmth of the reception tonight took
a great deal Of the sting out of my
gloomy spell and made me love Ken
lucky more than ever"

was attended by farmers.
They believe that Cohen would
serve their interests in the National

contention on the fact that during

FRITZ SCHEFF
HERE TONIGHT IN
MUSICAL COMEDY
Famous Prima Donna Returns to Mu-
steal Comedy and Favors Mays
vile With Her Appearance
Tonight.

She's been away-and now she IL
coming back to her real love-musica
comedy! And everybody should be
glad for It is none other than our ever.
adorable FRITZ Scheff who strayed
from the "talkies" or is 1t the singles
over to the movies, and who is now
returning to the fold In John Cort's
rainbow division of musical comedy
"Glorianna", coming to the Washing
ton Opera House tonight.
FRITZ Scheff is one Of the favorites
who deserted the footlights for the
studio and Location" She was cap
tivated by the new sport-and its at
tendant salary. After her first week
at camera work, she wrote very dear
friend: "My work today has consist
ed of padding in woodland brook,
while the cameramen were turning
their little machines. For three days
have been working on a private
yacht, and just think Of drawing the
salary they pay me for this!"
At first she was amazed that such
things were possible and as delighted
as youngster with brand new toy.
But her return to world of bright
lights, jolly songs and sprightly
dances tells new story. FRITZ is
back in the fold! After all the fur
of motion picture work, after the big
salary and new experiences, Miss
Scheff is back where she belongs.
And in the interim, fling at vaude-
vile failed to quench the longing
FRITZ Scheff had for musical comedy
Too longed for company to surround
her. But the proper vehicle was not
to be had just then it seemed. And
when John Cort offered her the star
role, she was still in the throes of the
two-a-day and a contract stipulated
that she must finish certain number
of weeks. So Mr.. Cort placed "Glor-
lama" on Broadway without FRITZ
But now, the contract having fulfilled
she is coming to the Washington as
its bright and radiant star, and the
adorable FRITZ is happy to be back
again-even as the playgoers are hap
py to have her back.
A success even without Miss Scheff'
"Glorianna" has proven to be the pro-
verbal riot" with her as Glorianna
Grey. And so that's why everybody
should be glad-Fritizi is back-to aid
to the glory of "Glorianna".

GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKEN HAIR
She mixed Sulphur with it to
Restore Color, Gloss,
Youthfulness.

Common garden sage brewed into
heavy tea with sulphur added. will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just
a few applications will prove a revela-
ton if your hair is fading, streaked or
gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
phur recipe at home, though, is trou-
blesome. An easier way is to get
bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound at any drug store all ready
for use. This is the old-time recipe
improved by the addition Of other in
gradients. q
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. BY darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
no one can tell, because it does it so
naturally, so evenly. You just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morning
all gray hairs have disappeared, and,
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy
soft and luxuriant.
This preparation is a delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention OF dis
ease. p

they disagree only when the sire to
be used on this foundation is IN
question. A man of long experience
knows that the Shorthorn sire IS the
most valuable sire to use on such
foundation. do not wish to under
estimate or detract from the worthy
beef characteristics of other breeds,
for the Shorthorn can never be bene-
fitted by their decline, but in all fair
ness | wish to remind the breeders OF
the potency of Shorthorn blood in the
making of market-topping beef.
Mr.. John J. Lawler, said to be the
heaviest individual buyer of cattle In
the United States, gave the three fol
lowing reasons for Shorthorn prefer
ence: zone is that in buying stock
cattle at the market it is possible to
make a better selection than in the
case of other breeds, and this is an
advantage not to be ignored. Second
ly, the grade Shorthorn is superior
steer to the grade showing a pre-
ponderance of the blood of other
breeds. Even a moderate infusion OF
Shorthorn blood imparts the scale
and spreading capacity that make
the Shorthorn a profitable animal. In
the third place Shorthorn Will, at
three years of age, give US at least
200 pounds more weight than steer
of any other breed, and fixed charges
being the same that added weight
means prot1t.
The profit in all kinds of livestock,
whether cattle, hogs or what not, will
be found in making the most weight
at the lowest cost of feed. The Short
horn will make better returns from
farm roughage and so-called waste
than any other steer. For sllage teed-
ing they have no equal. There should
be more Shorthorn cows on the farm
I do not mean that those specializing
in dairying should have Shorthorn
cows. but for the farmers purpose
thew have no equal. The male calves
can be matured, thus materially add
ing to the commercial beef supply,
and when the COW has outllved her
usefulness she can be fattened for
beef. Anything that grows on the
farm makes money and no cattle grow
like Shorthorns. Our method OF
handling cattle has for it's object Sc
curing growth. We aim to be pro-
ducers, not gamblers, depending on
favorable turn in tickle market for
profits, and it is because the Short
horn insures a maximum gain mat L
think that breed is best for the farm
ef.

,e Essay Written by Dawson Boy
Admiration of the Shorthorn Average Farm Conditions

that section at that time we're Short
horns. Other breeds have been taken
into that section and the result is
that the cattle soon lost the uni
formity which they used to possess.
On account of the crossing of these
new breeds not only was there lack
of uniformity, but also a lack of
quality, lack of size, and the Short
horn temperament, which has always
been a delight to the cattle feeder,
was missing.
There is now a general tendency
to get back to the Shorthorn on the
beef producing farms. A few years
of unsatisfactory experience will
convince the farmers that there is no
breed that quite takes the place of
the Shorthorn; that Shorthorn steers
may be grown on the farm with more
profit and less inconvenience than
any other breed. The Shorthorn does
not stamp it's color markings as uni
formly as do the other breeds, and as
a result of this credit that belongs
to the Shorthorn is often given to
other breeds. We do not breed or buy
cattle for their color, but for the
profit that they bring to US. Sup
porters of other breeds have the dis
tinct advantage of stamping quite
generally the breed markings as to
color, but they recognize the value
of Shorthorn blood in maintaining
size, bone and quality. They all rec
ognize that the Shorthorn cow, or
the cow carrying a large percent of
Shorthorn blood, makes the best
mother. The Hereford supporter will
claim that the Hereford-Sh orthorn
cross produces the best feed lot ami
NAL, and the Angus man will say that
the best feeder is produced by using
an Angus bull and cow of Short
horn ancestry. There is no difference
of opinion as to the foundation, but
