feminine nudity has lost It's ira
ditional graceful charm,'' observes
Paris art critic, in describing the nude
figures in the annual exhibition of the
work of Paris artists. 1t appears
that nearly all of the artists models
were engaged in war work during
the war, and they came back to the
studios with figures developed by
work In munition plants and in hos
pitfalls. railroad stations and the like,
says Louisville Post. "Gone is the
peachbloom skin, now roughened by
winds and hard work. Gone the softly
curving charm of shoulders and arms.
And IN the places of these charms
have been developed muscles that
would be the pride Of modern ath-
letic girl" One artist, indeed, tried
to go into the business of painting

Have you ever watched a sunset on an
evening late in June?
Have you ever sailed through fluffy
clouds perched on Silyery moon?
Have you ever travelled countless miles
on wings OF pure delight!
All Just because it chaneed to be-a
perfect summer night.
Have you ever felt the pressure of
soft caressiug breeze?
That had blown through distant gardens
and some mountains stately trees?
Did it tell YOU of the distance it had
come and Oh how fine
Was the very faint suggestion of tie

Have you ever watched an Eagle soar
ing gracefully in space?
And in watching feel how small you
are-down in your little placel
Have you ever heard the mountains call
through dstant serene?
Their message in the waters of some
sea bound mountain stream.
Have you ever had the feeling that
some friend is standing near?
Have you ever found in strange new
faces some old friend of yesteryear?
Has your friend Miss Intuition-ev
told you what to do?
When some task of great Importance is
fact to bother you.
And-our yesterdays are useful for the
memories they bring
Some are SO sweet and peaceful-while
some others hold sting,
Mine they back me in corner-some-
times laugh and sometimes frown-
Always active-when | visit in-my

Cleveland Star, (shelby),, May 20:
Mayor Gardner and the board of
aldermen in session Tuesday night
held a most important :, injecting in
which an election on 100000 bond
issue for school was called. the license
tax on pool rooms was doubled and the
license tax on meat markets was re-
moved to open up competition in the
price Of fresh meats. The tax hereto
fore on pool rooms has been S25 on
each table for the state and $50 for
the first table anI $50 for each addi-
tional table for town license tax. The
state tax of S25 per table will remain
the same, while the city fathers raised
the tax in Shelby to $500 for the first
table and s1OO for each additional
table. There are three pool rooms in
Shelby one with six tables, one with
and one with g. If they continue
to operate under the present license
tax, the same number of tables would
produce 1925 per year revenue to the
state and $3.50 to the town Of Shelby.
There was discussion yesterday as to
whether the pool rooms would operate,
The intention Of the city fathers was
to tax them to death, but advocates
declare that the price per game
charged by the pool room operators
will be raised from 10 to 20 cents and
that they will continue. A number
of ministers and citizens were present
to advocate the abolition of the pool
rooms, while the editor Of the High
