PARROT CALLS TIME
 ON PARK SPOoNERS

Chicago, Aug. 3o-'Yoke1," a par rot, formerly of Maxwell street has made his appearance in a new role as censor of public morals.
 Motorcycle Policeman Peter Schaef- fer of the Wiln1ette force discovered ''YokeP' asleep in a. tree shortly after the bird had been made homeless by the closing of @ saloon in Niles Gen. tre.
 "You are not allowed to sleep in this tree" said the policeman.
 On the way to the police station he treated the policeman to sundry observations, such as: Its 12 o'clock, boys. Close the saloon-" And "It's morning now. Gotta get up," And Such shocking conduct"
 You'd make a good speaker for the blue law advocates observed Schaeffer. "But I think I can find use for your talents on the police foorce"
 So 'tYokeP, was given a job as park sensor. Policeman Schaefer told about it today.
 "A parrot makes the best kind of a sparrow cop," he said He gets out on a limb in the park and starts shouting: Ten o'clock Stop your spooning now and go home.' and most of the couples go without stopping to see who's taIking tD them"

 For that's one of the many surgical feats for which Dr. Leroy Stoddard has gained distinction, face lifting and other branches of cosmetic and plastic surgery.
 From tired women he lifts burdens along with wrinkles.
 From worried wives who have lost the gay look of youth that won them a husbands love he takes away men, tai turmoil as we'll as sagging cheeks.
 He is the sworn enemy of the crows foot and of the little paren- theses of wrinkles that too often en- close a woman's mouth.
 Dr. Stoddard returned from Flu rope the other day on the Olympic
 Studies Woman's VagarieS.
 In addition to his surgical achieve ments, Dr. Stoddard, the husband of Alice Nielsen, the opera singer. is quite psychologist and deep stu dent of the vagaries of feminine na- lures.
 'The psychology of looks is an i'm portant phase of life. Looks have a tremendous power. Surgery applied accomplished fact and is one of the acknowledged branches of academic activity he said recently.
 "It is possible to a great extent to remove the marks of time or acci- dent.
 Good looks affect the very heart and soul. If a woman is conscious that she looks well, that she is eX- qu1sitely groomed; if her hair, as well as her gown, is correct, she will be completely at ease. Her satisfaction will be reflected in her manner. She will have complete control of her self both in speech and demanor- nearly always in thought, too.
 That famous character, Sherlock Holmes, said you remember, that men see, but they don't observe. And that was the only difference between himself and other men.

 "Looks+good looks - react favor ably upon the individual who possesses them, not necessarily for anyone else.
 t"The eye operation is my special hobby," pr. Stoddard smiled. By this the wrinkles and sagging thin skin above and below the eyes is frightened and the whole appearance thereby rejuvenated.
 t'H is a simple procedure. The sutureS are removed in 4S hours.
 Ambripe Solves Trouble.
 Much of the trouble in the past, for instance. in removing disfgure- nent due to burns or accident, was due to the surgical dressings which had to be applied. They became matted into the surface. When taken out they tore unendurably at the raw flesh That condition is all changed now.
 "Ambrine has brought about the difference. It is a form of paraf1in.
 "A coating of this substance is poured into the wound fairly warm, and it coo1s on the surface; then shape. There is no sticking or dis comfort associated with the process.

aided by the A. R. A. big organi- zation has been built up to do the work under American supervision. About 100000 people are included In all thees organizations. These people have learned qualities which will be not only valuable to themselves but national assets. It may be added. too, that the comprehensive, impar- tia1 distribution of relief to people Of all races and creeds has taught to1- erance and brotherhood has brought hostile classes and races and creeds together for the common good.

The general health of this generation and those to follow has been benefited. The feeding of unfortunate members of the intellectual class. of students, of professors-a branch of the work has sustained. through a difficult period, the mental strength and ca need those qualities the most.
 '"The friendship of the peoples of the countries served by the American Relief Administration for the United States has been securely won by the inc and sincere gratitude to the American people for their great act of human brotherhood. The children will not forget.
 The child-feeding operation has been a great impetus to the scientific study of chi1d-nutrition. especially in Austria If America will take advan- tage of the lessons learned, if Amer ica, having aided the children of so many countries, will turn her atten- ton more earnestly and effectively to her own children, making use of the knowledge acquired in Europe through American generosity. the cost of the whole relief operation will be a trif1e compared to the benefits America herself will derive.
 'The American Relief Administra- tion has been upholding democracy in Europe. The new democracies re- suHing from the war-Poland, Aus tria, Czecho-S1ovakia, Hungary, Ger many, Esthonia, Jatvia, Lthuania, Finland-an threatened with force of disitegration, some more, some less all faced with the hunger that breeds political violence, revolution, chaos-have been stabilized, strength ened and very neasurealbly made se- cure by the feeding operations. The chief officials in some countries told me with perfect frankness that the American feeding had been their po- liticaI salvation and in all countries even the most cautious and guarded officials admitted it was a very ma terial aid.

OLD FILMS BETRAYED BY STYLES
Movie Seuths Quick to Detect Passe Modes the
 Screen

It is a known fact that some films are dug out of the ''storehouse'' and used several years later by some of the producers. A case of this was re- gently noticed in which the styles were so pronounced as to draw comment from several male members of the audience who are not experts on the matter of fashion. The eagle eye of the smart young female follower of the latest thing in fashion lets not a single mistake of this sort get by. She knows just what season that gown was the vogue, and she sometimes audibly announces to those near by that the manager or producer has been putting something over'' on the public by the use of his old film.

New York, Aug. 30 - New York mashers are steering clear of Mrs Eleanor De Hart, an attractive w1d- ow of middle age, who has added an other notch to her trusty shillelah.

 But she was undaunted, though without her weapon, and resorted to her wonderfully developed right arm for the knockout.

NEW YORK, July 26.-Danlel NJ
TreadweII. lawyer, author. scientist.
broker and man Of affairs, on the
eve of his ninety-ffth birthday Is
just a bit amusedly tolerant OF the
fur0re made annually over the fact
that John d. Rockefeller, in the ripe
maturity OF his eighty second year,

Mr.. Treadweu goes TO his office at

pect anyOnt TO wax excited about IT,.
He is regarded as the oldest active
business man in New York City and
he is looking forward TO beins a
good deal older business man before
he retires to spend his old age in
peace and quiet.
Mr.. Treadwell admits that John $
Stewart, of Morristown, y. J., chair
man Of the board OF directors of the
United States Trust Co, who will
celebrate his Goth birthday on Aug
ust 26. Is getting along in years and
has earned his retirement, but feels
that for himself 90 years will be

On the 26th of this month Mr..
Treadwell will go to Freeport, Z. l..
for his annual birthday party with
his little granddaughter, Charles p.
Harvey, son OF Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred
Harvey, who is his junior by a little
matter Of exactly 81 years to the
day. Mr.. Treadwer will be 90 and
Charles IL years old, but the slight
discrepancy in years doesn't alter
the fact that the two are ''buddies."
and neither would feel that his
birthday had been celebrated pro-
perly minus the presence Of the 9TH
er.
AS a matter Of fact Mr.. Treadwell

Mr. Treadweu has a spontaneous
humor which is very readily tapped.
In fact, he managed to find consid-
cradle amusement over his clumsi-
ress. some two months ago, when he
permitted a pair of new rubber heels
to trip him up and hurl him head
long down two fights OF stairs lead
