WOMEN.

Prof Carl II. Wernz OF the Academy OF Fine Arts
On Chicago. who has gained a little brief notoriety
BY his decision that 90 per cent of the women are
homely. probably is one of those odious efficiency
expertsr' They reckon everything IS percentages
wtateve~fe is, he is woefully OF his base in making
snch n assertion
-I.ety per cent, indeed. Not even in Chicago,
we~venture TO say. will so large a proportion OF home
~ women be found. And in this locality not 80 per
cent, nor nine per cent-nc, it cannot BE- conceded
that sTen one per cent of our women are homely-
There are different standards of judging feminine
pufctrttlde- Turks and Eskimos are said most to
admire women who are, let us say, plump, we'll
rounded, moon-faced. Others prefer the svelt type.
ideas concerning beauty vary. And who is Professor
Werntz to set himself up as the final arbiter and de-
clare that 80 per cent Of the women are homely?
The standard dictionary, defining beautiful"
Says 'The definition of beauty perfection Of
FORM is a good key TO the meaning Of beautiful,
If we understand form in its widest sense" II is
submitted that under the terms of this definition Cf
we understand form in its widest sense) all women
are beautiful The dictionary goes on to say, how
ever that there must be harmony and unity. and in
human beings spiritual loneliness. TO constitute an
object or a person really beautiful"
No attempt will be made to answer for the women
OF Chicago as to whether they possess the additional
said in behalf of the fair ones of this locality, with
out fear of successful contradiction. that they have
this, as well as unity and harmony.

MIR. HARDING's HOLIDAYS.

Although a physician says President Harding is
the most robust occupant the white house has had in
many years. it is always good news to hear that he
is indulging in a brief period of rest and relaxation
from the cares of his eXacting office. AS a result of
his several weekend trips of late Washington cores
pondents comment on the removal Of the tired lines"
from his face, although before the outings he was not
seriously fatigued. But he is extremely wise to take
the ounce CT prevention that is worth so much more
than the pound OF cure.
The president is about to enter upon a period of
unusually heavy responsibilities. The coming con-
ference to discuss reduction and limitation of arma-
ments is known to be much on his mind. He realizes
that unless the matters coming before the conference
are handled with the utmost tact and skill they may
precipitate a highly dangerous situation. On the
other hand, the nations will now have the opportunity
to take the most advanced step in their history toward
insuring the peace CT the world, relieving the burdens
of military expense under which they are now labor
ing and settling questions that threaten to grow into
causes OF war. While Mr.. Harding wisely will no.
participate directly in the conference as a member,
his responsibility will be no less great as he considers
daily the progress that is being made toward the main
obikect Of the gathering and confers with Americas
representatives.
The people do not begrudge their president his
outings They rejoice to find him keeping himself
ft for his work.

HOW CAN IT R

The same day that the chief of one of the largest
Industrial corporations in the United States half
threatened to supply it's home market with manufac-
tured goods from Germany, the German mark drop
ped TO the lowest point ever reached. The American
manufacturers reason for foregoing production and
substituting finished articles from Germany was the
substantially lower prices. rates which American
manufacturers cannot touch. he said.
But does not the complete collapse of the mark
foreshadow a grand smashup OF the competition from
Germany? Is not the utter valuelessness Of the mark
the consequence Of the virtually unlimited issue Of
paper currency and will not that bring about an In
dustrial collapse to fit the financial situation? Can
Germany hope to continue manufacturing at such low
costs under the steady retreat of the mark and the
equally steady climb of the mountain of paper money?
Why even think of throwing up our industrial
hands sit command OF manufacturing enterprises de-
pending upon q mass of currency which within a short
time may be actually worth less than nothing?
