workers only weapon in this case
is illegal and is a violation of the
antitrust act because it interferes
with interstate commerce.
Compared with this position by the
supreme court is its recent refusal to
dissolve the United States steel trust
The minority opinion in that case de-
clared that the trust was organized
in plain violation and bold defiance
of the antitrust act, but the court
refused to dissolve it because of a
risk of injury to the public interest,
including a material disturbance of

Tall Girls Can =.

Smaller Sisters

Tall girls and young, who have
dejectedly concluded that their more
than average height or weight pre-
cludes their ever being as beautiful
or attractive as their smaller sisters,
should read these few remarks by
and about Betty Blythe, who is re-
garded as one of the most beautiful
women on the screen, and step forth
with new lease on personal charm.
Miss Blythe is tall-hve feet eight
inches in the fattest of fiat heels,
which she never wears for reasons
which she gives below. To continue
with statistics, she is considerably
above average weight-about $50
pounds.
Rather than considering her
weight as a deteriment to beauty,
Miss Blythe OH the contrary regards
it distinct asset and declares that
any tall girl has an advantage over
the woman Of average inches and
build.
individuality Rules.
"Tall women are primarily individ-
ual," she declares. There are hun
dred average women to every one of
more than average height. Therefore,
the tall woman has big advantage
to start with. Without taking any
other elements into consideration,
she is distinctive because of her
height while the hundred other av-
erage women are all more or less
alike"
"The most infallible way to call
attention to. your height is to wear
low-heeled Shoes" she explains.
when people notice a low-heeled
evening slipper they immediately
look for the cause, and usually dis
cover it. Besides, low heels display
the ankle to bad advantage and lend
no support to the arches.
High Coiffures.
"As for high coiffures, the tall girl
is exactly the person who can wear
them. If little short girl piles her
hair high on top of her head it IS
over-balancing. When a tall girl
does it the proportion is perfect and
the effect usually very charming.
That is just one example of the in
divduality that belongs to the tall
girl and not to the average woman"
In dress, she also maintains, the
tall woman has a wonderful oppor-
tunity to exercise the utmost distinct
tiveness. She may wear picturesque
and unusual gowns that on other

Sun-"Skirts."
The advent of the Singer Midgets
as sensational feature Of Skirts"
the six-reel comedy which is to be
shown at the Sun theater this week
is landmark in comedy production.
The Midgets are by far the most re-
markable aggregation of small peo-
pie that ever stepped before an audi
cncc.
Every member Of the Fox comedy
forces, including 5000 Sunshine
widows, was recruited for this mon
ster laugh-raiser. In addition. the
company was enlarged by additions
such as the famous Singer Midgets.
The rapid-hre comedy of the
troupe Of little folks runs through
the whole production. What they
lack in size they make up in side
splitting fun. They are loved all
over the world as a refreshing en-
tertainment novelty. All Europe
has laughed uproariously at their
antics.
The Singer Midgets originally
came to America to fill a seasons
engagement at the New York Hip
podrome. Their tremendous popu-
larity here led to an extended en-
gagement at Hammerstein's Victoria
theater, where they again proved
their phenomenal drawing power.
