South Bend Remembers Virginia Rappe Tragedy Victim
Death Fatty Arbuckle Held; Living Here October
Made Impression Here
By Modesty-Wax
Stimulation En-
tranclng.

Virginia Rape the victim Of the
san Francisco tragedy for whose
death Fatty Arbuckle is held respon-
sible. is remem bered BY hundreds
OF residents OF South Bend as one Of
the living models who appeared al
a style show az the Wyman store on
October, 8, (, and 3, 1912.
That show was an event in the
city and at the time was a new
means OF merchandising
Miss Rape was then a girl Of ap-
parentiy Il years who came from
Chicago. She showed marked dra-
matte ability as well as unusual
beauty and was unusually prominent
because Of her Stimulating Of a WA
model
Her perfect control Of facial ex-
preston and muscles enabled her
10 hold an expression for an eXcep-
tionally long time and many were
led 10 believe that she was a wax
model, not a living one. until she re-
Taxed and allowed her face TO break
into an enhancing smile.
Modest And Ladylike.
she was not only unusually at
tractive and beautiful but most
modest and ladyiike in her actions"
says Charles Speth OF the Wyman
store 10 whose attention an original
advertisement OF the fashion show
Of that year was called by The News
Times.
she came with four other girls
and was here for a week She made
a number Of friends and will per-
haps be better remembered than the
others by reason Of the fact that she
had at that time attained none Of
the air OF professionalism OF the
more experienced.
Made Numerous Friends.
Her striking beauty and her per-
feet carriage caused many OF our
women 20 remark upon her and she
made numerous friends while here.
Motherly women extended 10 her, al
most involuntariIy, a welcome and
recognized in her a girlsh innocence
that appealed. ether women would
stop 70 admire her grace and the
distinction which she impaired 10
the clothes
That she had become somewhat
famous in the movie world was news
10 the managers Of the store. That
she should attain such distinction
was no surprise.
It was only when The News-Times
called attention TO her identity that
che was remembered. Many others
who attended the Wyman fashion
show Of 1912 Will undoubtedly re-
call her.

baccos, chemicals and shippings also
registered declines Of one 10 four

played firmness, the latter being
helped by declaration of regular
dividends on Erdicott-JohnSOn.
Bond Trading Is Lower.
