NEW York; I were asked to
IN produce the most forcible argu-
ment that were possible to obtain
against, the modern flapper with her
sophisticated manner, expression and
dress, I should produce Miss Madge
Bellamy, her exact antithesis.
No jury would have to be called for
a verdict. She is the ideal young girl
beauty type, in my estimation.
It must be conceded that each Of us
has and is quite entitled to an in
dividual opinion on beautiful women.
Some prefer the tall girl, some the
short, some the lean, and the Turk
wants rotundity in his f~avorite beauty.
But for universal appeal, there is
nothing that tickles the aesthetic sense
of either sex like feminine daintiness.
Miss Bellamy is an exquisite bit OF
workmanship, like a Vatican, a beau
tiful Dresden china figure crowded
with life. Her beauty is as delicate as
a rare perfume. She has youth go
poignantly attractive in itself, and the
grace and manner of a ~gentlewoman.
1t was some months ago / saw and
talked with her, but the impression she
made on me was indelible. So often when
/ have encountered the ultra modern
young creature with the pitiful air of
ennui and worldweariness upon her
lace, inc uldXe III uTESS Auu
.tion, it was a happy relief to recall
this adorable girl who represents
youth at it's loveliest. Too, / saw her
in direct contrast at the time with
MAN. of the other pretty girls in her
profession, but none was SO completely
captivating
1t will be a happy day when the new
picture color process is employed to
present Miss Bellamy on the screen.

hair is most resplendent, neither a red
gold nor a brown, but a gorgeous art
toning of these two colors, and it is
most abundant. with lovely loose and
natural waves.
She's Almost FiawIess
Her skin is as transparent, fair, and
clear as the proverbial lily. Her face
a perfect oval, and a pair Of the most
luminous, soft, deep brown eyes, and
ravishing long eyelashes, a perfect
cupid's bow mouth with teeth very
white and even, and a smile most en-
chanting.
Five feet four she is. and weighs q
trifle over 100 pounds, her dainty feet
requiring but a IL shoe; small hands,
TOO, bust most artistically shaped. Her
head is poised so delicately upon a
slender throat, her profile as pleasing
as a front face view. Almost flawless
is the little beauty.
And hers is a head which might SO
easily have been turned if adulation
were the sole reason for such mis-

stage when she was but II and billed
as the most beautiful girl on Broad
way" with plenty of flattery between
her seventeenth and her present nine
iteenth birthday, yet her great beauty
lies in her utter Inconsistencies of its
possession.
Born in Texas. the daughter Of q
university professor of English, she
left that state at the age of 3, returned
later to attend school at st. Marys
hall in San Antonio. and is a student,
with quite a philosophy Oh life for one
SO young and pretty. She has posed for
the noted artist, Penryhn Stanlaws.
and her head has decorated the covers
of several leading magazines.
Il haven't any ambition to be 3

protested Miss Bellamy. IF ] can't do
anything more useful than that, it's
about time to call for the funeral march
and my f~avorite flowers"
Dresses Simply
Chasing freckles from off her piq-
uant nose is about the only beauty

would not dream of asking her how
she kept her figure nor her heavenly
complexion nor any of the beauty Sc

an older woman.
But she stands a sermon on the art
of the young girl beautiful in her I'M

up in a simple fashion and a taste for
Jewels has not been cultivated by her.

they really do not need it. Oh, yes,

When / referred to the lovely color
in her hair, she said: II always wash
my. own hair with just a good plain
white soap, first making q liquid of
the soap. and then rubbing that On

Is Very Enthusiastic
1T is kind of q job to do because
it is so heavy, but I like TO know what
is in the shampoo myself and not just
trust to luck at some one else's hand.
] usually shampoo it on Il sunny day
and then dry it with the suns rays.
