Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:

that some Of your readers have been

moment entered my thoughts when
wrote the reply to S. f. r. 1t will
be remembered that in her letter
was voiced the opinion of herself
that the girl who used powder and
paint and whose appearance was
flashy, was the. one sought for by
most men, and that she, being just
a plain, everyday girl and wore
glasses, was passed up and only
considered by men as a good little
pal. .-...

ings to Miss s. #. E, and had /

just as my letter appeared in The

Tended, please let me explain my
self IL possible. / am just one of
the ordinary kind Of fellows you
meet in everyday life, and there is
not a man living that respects a
good woman any more than 1 do.
do not make a practice Of criticiz-
ing girls for every little thing they

have one of my own sisters criti-
cized by some other person; how
ever, this much l do know, and so
do you: The girls of today who use
powder and paint to extreme do not
command the respect of the men
that the girls do who are not made
up" and flashy looking. Why, girls,
do you know that a fellow, l mean
a man of today, will form an opinion
of you the first time he meets you,
whether you are formally intro
duced, or just pass you on the
street. The first glance he gets of
you gives him an idea Of what you
are, morally, / mean. Now, If
your lips are smeared with paint,
powder on your face and neck,
which, as 1t often happens, is on I'M
evenly; eye lashes blackened, some-
times beyond where the lashes are
what do you suppose flashes through
that fellows mind? No, it is not
natural for all men to be foul-mind-
ed, please understand that 1 am
aware of the fact that all girls who
use rouge and powder are not of the
fallen type; but, girls, it looks bad,
for we men know and you should
be informed that it's the women of
the under world that use rouge and
powder to extreme to attract the
men. It's a human fact that it be-
speaks of evil as clearly as a red
light points out that something dam
gerous is close at hand and should
be avoided.

ion of me. You, as we'll as others,

An Opinion of Mr.. c. o. A.

write just few lines in the defense
of a real woman.
think If one was to look intosthe
question Mr.. c. o. A. has in the
paper and find out what he was, he'd
be a gambler, he smoked and al
ways kept his eyes open for these
painted and powdered up dolls, and
| suppose if Mr.. G. o. A. would
stop to think he has the powder on
so thick you could brush it off with
your hand and fix up and struts
around like chicken with its head

take in this expression trying to
write advice on painted up dolls
when he doesn't know anything
about them.

know. But we do know that most
Of the girls are as good as the men.

up dolls, and If you would try to

a chance to do right again and help

Ohio Executive Says
He Won't Interfere
With Toledo Battle

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 21.-Gov.
ernor Cox will not interfere with the
Willard Dempsey fight at Toledo July
unless the Ohio Legislature gives
him specific authority to do so. As
the Legislature is now in recess until
December, this is regarded as unlikely
With reference to the situation af
fecting the contest, Governor Cox to-
day made the following statement:
The propaganda begun a short
time ago under political auspices is
based upon such deliberate attempt
to deceive the public that it would
seem proper for me to give the facts.
"Under the laws of this state, and
their Interpretation by the courts,
boxing contests are legalized under
direction Of local municipal authori-
ties. Several attempts within the
last few weeks were made in the
Ohio Legislature to change existing
statute on the subject, but without
result. Failing in this. one branch
of the Legislature passed resolution
requesting me to interfere with the
contest.
"In other words, after the Assem-
bly, itself failed to give me legal
authority, one branch of it urged me
to proceed without right. Dictator
ship has not prospered even in Rus
sia, and the executive policy OF Ohio
will be within The laws of the com
monwealth SO long as / am Governor
Boxing contests are conducted in
at least dozen of our largest cities.
During the winter they were held
within a square of the legislative
halls in Columbus, and were attend
ed in goodly numbers by members
of the Legislature. If the law is
changed, giving me the right of in
reference, it will be exercised, but
l shall not meet hypocrisy with usur-
patton Of power"
