WOMEN
SHAVE BROWS

London, Aug. 14.-'Have you had
your eyebrows shaved?"
This is the latest tea-table topic
among leisured English women, de-
spite the fact that results are so OBJ
vious as to make the question su-
perfiuous.
A walk through Bond street proves
that the new cult in eye-wear.
which has percolated through from
America. now holds sway in Lon
don. Eyes which yesterday CLEAN
ed out sombre under a mass OF
shaggy brOws. like torpid pools
overrun with weeds. today CLINT
and sparkle like irrepressible brook
let's. The weeds are mown and the
expression of the face completely
changed. Fine, Crescent-shaped
eyebrows give evidence of milady's
disclaim. while there is no mistak-
ing her mood when she frowns
them into a horizontal straight line.
That sphinXlike imperturbability
of countenance which used to hall
mark the "well-bred" woman who
kept her feelings hidden is out of
date. Today her face is permitted
to be an index to her feelings, anu
quite half an hour each morning is
spent in practiCing expressions"
before her mirror.

with Uncle Wiggily on his back.
But after him still came the bad

Skee. Now I'm going to get your

The Skee was just going to give
a big jump and catch Uncle wig

could not go on much farther. when,

FRENCH GASOLINE
PRICE HITS RACES
(Wnshington Herald-PubIic Ledger
Service-Special Gable Dispatch)


Paris, Aug. 1.-THE impending
crisis in the automobile industry in
France is due partly to the pro-
hibitive price of gasoline, which has
precluded all hopes for the revival
of the big world cup races this year.
Automobile clubs have announced
only one important race, which will
be the Coupe Internationale des
Voiturettes," in which only light
cars will compete. The twenty-eight
entries announced are all continen-
tai models and no applications SO
far have come from across the At
lantic. The race will be held in the
Sarthe circuit, of which LIE Mans is
the center.
The price of gasoline is still four
teen and fifteen francs for a five
quart can. and it is stated by off,
cials in the auto industry that the
high cost OF touring is keeping the
majority of the cars in garages and
forcing down prices on sales, espe-
Cially of secondhand cars. The lift
ing of the import ban, allowing
American and other foreign-made
motor cars to come into France is
the French industry, especially if
exchange takes a favorable course.

CHILD TREATER
CLASSES
Scholarships in London Of.
fered to Train Future
Actors.

London, Aug. 14.-Arrangements
are being made whereby two Lon
don schoolchildren are to be train
ed each year for the stage.
The dearth of good actors and
actresses in England today is
ascribed to the lack OF proper train
ing and the Academy OF Dramatic
Art has been in conclave on this
subject. Among those interested
in the scheme are Sir Johnston
Forbes-Robertson. Sir Arthur Pine
TO and Miss Constance Collier. The
Duke of Bedford has offered the
academy the use OF a full-size the
ater and auditorium to assist the
cause. This will be opened in Oc-
tober.
The scholarships will be open to
ordinary colleges and schools and
will not be tied down to dramatic
schools only.
Capt Barnes, administrator of
the Academy OF Dramatic Art re-
CARDS this as the first official rec
Ognition of the educational value of
the drama. 1t is hoped that in fu-
ture plays Of a high literary char
acter will be performed for students
at the schools, whereas at present,
IL a class Is studying a play by
Shakespeare. it is necessary to re-
sort en- masse to a theater before
they can see II properly acted.
The promoters OF the scholarships
have the backing of the whole the
atrical profession.
