The Ethics of the Powder Puff

Nobody will deny that there is no beauty
like natural beauty; nothing so charming ana
alluring as slim, young, graceful girl: IN
fortunately, very few Lillian Russells are
born into the world, and alas and alack, age
and fat come upon us all, but surely there
is to merit in Haunting these In the race
of the public, and adding still further to the
general gloom. Rather should it be account
ed unto us for righteousness il we disguise
our blemishes as far as possible, and make
ourselves as decorative as circumstances
permit.
No one will contend that he or she finds
any spiritual uplift in gazing upon froWsy
woman with saleratus biscuit complexion, a
wisp of hair screwed into knot the size of
a walnut, feather bed figure, and wearing
clothes that look as il her worst enemy had
selected them and wished them on her. On
the contrary, contemplating, such an object
one is filled with pessmistic wonder as to
why the Creator didn't call it day, and
| knock off before he made human beings at
all.
But take that same woman and endow her
with lovely, handmade complexion, put a
permanent wave in her hair, give her cor
setmaker and a dressmaker who know their
business, and you turn her into an object
that you can view with joy while you muse
upon how much sweetness and light women
add to the world.
Which is the more moral of these two
women-the one who laid down on the job,
and permitted herself to be eyesore to the
public, or the one who circumVented nature,
and overcame her handicap, and thus be-
came source Of pleasure to her fellow
creatures?
AS matter Of fact, the question Of whether
it is moral to use cosmetics or not depends
upon the result. Also it is question of age.
1t is sin for very young girls to paint
their cheeks because it is inartistic They
are throwing away the most wonderful and
beautiful thing in the world, which is the
beauty of youth. Nothing else is so lovely as
the soft, velvety skin of girl in her teens,
and she commits crime against all beauty
when she covers this up with calsomine and
rouge.
| 1t is sin for old women to use comestics
because these things emphasize their age
and decay, and call attention to the beauty
they have lost. They look like Jezebels, and
are robbed of the dignity and charm that
belongs to their time of life An old woman
with her face smeared with rouge looks as
the Parthenon would with coat Of red paint
on it,
But between youth and age, there Is a
lapse OF time wherein the beauty parlor, and
all it's aids, and arts and articles, may get
in their perfect work, and where blessed is
she maAes a fresh rose bloom on the
cheek where none blooms naturally.
Let us thank God for all his mercies.

HANDKERCHIEFS
BY DIR. R H BISHOP

Did you ever think of your handkerchief
as disease-carrier? Did you ever stop to
realize that every time you have had it wash
ed you have given it one more chance to in
feet someone else with germs that you may
have put there, especially if you had cold?
Few handkerchiefs ent to laundries re-
turn without a number of microbes in the
tiny meshes of the linen. Some may be
yours. lot may be from others handker-
chiefs that were washed in the same tub.
DR.. Carl Hewson investigated and counted
the number of bacteria in hundreds Of fresh
~ Numbered handkerchiefs. These were
ompared with similar examination of Or
inarily soiled handkerchiefs.
Finally third research was made upon
the handkerchiefs used for colds, coughs and
sore throats.
The bacteriologist found that even the
cleanest had many microbes Most of these
were of the harmless, nondisease forming
kind.
The handkerchiefs which were just Or
dinarily soiled had bacteria of all sorts in
them.
Of the third group almost all varieties of
vicious bacteria from tuberculosis to diph-
liberia were found in abundance.
But what is to replace the handkerchief?
Some doctors say the handkerchief as or
dinarily used is unnecessary.
For use in colds and other ailments, it is
recommended that one take up the use Of
little tampons of sterilized absorbent cotton
These may be used and then burned.

= the woman who powders her nose, and
touches up her hair, and dabs bit of
color on her cheeks, dishonest?
Mrs. Evangelne Booth the national COM
mander of the Salvation Army, says that she
is. She declares that the woman who uses
makeup is cheat; and she AYERS that many
divorces are caused by the fact that willy
ladies have deceived their husbands into
thinking them better looking than they
were.
Oh, piff1e. Before you can cheat person.
you must bamboozle person-make him be-
leve something true that is false, and the
very babes in their cradles in these days cut
their teeth on rouge pots and lip sticks. Ger
tainly, there isn't a boy child of even ordi-
nary intelligence who is not conversant with
all the paraphernalia of mothers and sisters
toilet tables and who isn't perfectly familiar
with the fact that the female of the species
puts on, and takes off its complexion at will.
Certainly no woman is foolish enough to
think that she is deceiving any other wom-
an to the exact source of her pulchritude.
Neither is she optimistic enough to hope
that there is any man so blind and stupid
as not to penetrate her charming Disguise
Nor do women make the slightest effort
to hide the facs that they purchase much Of
their good looks at the drug store. The
powder puff and the lip stick are as indis-
pensable part of the average woman's
toilet the handkerchief. They are as
Familiarity used, and it is so common a sight
rants, in all sorts of public places repairing
the damages that the stress of the day has
made in their beauty that no &c notices it
any more. 1t has become a commonplace
custom.
How, then, any man be fooled as to
the real amount of his wife's good looks as
to feel that he is entitled to divorce on
the ground that he was taken in by false ap-
pearances, passes comprehension. Certainly
lover must be far gone in infatuation, in
deed, If he cannot detect the flavor of grease
paint in kisses, and il he never wonder why
the color in his beloved's cheeks never
wavers, nor why her hair is so much curlier
upon one occasion than upon another.
AS matter of fact, it is impossible for
any woman to camouflage beauty so success
fully that it defies detection. 1t simply can't
be done. AS to woman's moral right to
openly fout fate, and to make herself beau
tltul though ugly, that's another question.
There are stern moralists like Mrs. Booth,
who contend that woman should remain as
homely as nature made her, and that it is a
SIN to calsomIne shiny nose or to put a
CLINT into carroty hair, to touch up a drab
cheek with color, and that the woman who
does these things is more or less of a hussy.
But why? Surely there is no intrinsic
virtue in ugliness. Certainly there is not so
much beauty in the world that we can afford
to dispense with any of it, and, therefore, it
seems to me that it is sacred duty for each
or US to make ourselves as easy upon the eyes
or our FELLOW creatures as we. can.

THINK TO DO
BY H. Addington Bruce

| A GAIN and again we nowadays hear it
| ~ said of some young man who is not
making any real Roadway in bust
ness life:
"The trouble IS that he lacks pep He is
short in forcefulness, in energy He does
not seem to be more than half alive"
And not infrequently it is added, by way
of an offhand diagnosis:
"But probably he cannot help it. The
chances are he was born that way, or has &C
quired some physical weakness which has
| slowed him down."
| The chances as matter Of fact, are moth
ing of the sort.
| Many young men, it is true are to some
extent constitutionally inert, or have been
de-energized by some bodily affliction for
which they are not responsible. But many
who are the victims of bad personal habits.
And in especial heir energy deficiency is
product of being content to drift through life
| without really thinking, without using their
minds.
Ask any psychologist of your acquaintance
and he will tell you that thought is dyna-
mogenic Pressed to explain just what this
means, he may say, in effect:
cit is psycho-physical law that all ideas
tend to find expression in some appropriate
action. This means that they stimulate the
person to whom they occur to behave in a
specific way.
| "And the stimulus increases in proportion
| to the extent to which ideas associated with
one another are dwelt upon and turned over
in the mind. For the associated ideas, being
successfully entertained have cumulative
effect in urging to action and in facilitating
action
| Hence, to think theoretically about any
! thing-about ones work, for eXample-helps
one to act theoretically in respect to the
| thing or things thought about. And when
| there is little thinking-when the dynamo
genie impulse of Ideas is lacking-energetic
doing will likewise tend to be absent.
! Still worse any prolonged failure really
| to think must of necessity establish what
medical men call "a vicious circle"
That is, because there habitually is little
| thinking, there gradually develops bodily
habit of inertness, reacting on all the in
ternal processes. Tie circulation slows, a
general astrenia, or weakness, of the nervous
system eventuates. This in it's turn makes
| it more difficult for the individual to think
theoretically as we'll as to act theoretically.
| Physical remedies may then be called for
1-tonics, exercise, and so forth. Neverthe-
| less, the initial trouble being psychic, the
physical remedies must be accompanied by
mental training if they are to produce last
| ing1y good results in the way of securing the
| desired pep"
| And mental training will itself often suf-
| flee to do this. Get young mans attention
so directed to something that he will become
| interested enough i it to think hard about
| ing with regard to it as theoretically as could
be desired
! Think t. do. That in truth, is a maxim of
great practical Importance, of such impor-
lance that none of us should let it slip from
his or her mind.

Fine Indian War Record
A report of the commissioner of Indian af
fairs estimates that over 5000 Indians enter
ed some branch of the military service dur
ing the World War, and that fully 5000 OF
these entered by voluntary enlistment. 1t
is also stated that Of the 1913 Indians reg
stered by the draft boards, only 228 sought
deferred classification or exemption.
|, Brigadier General Enoch H. Corwder, pro-
vost marshal general, in his report to the
president on the selective draft, declared that
las the raising of the army proceeded and the
organizations entered upon their transit
overseas, it was seen that the traditional apti-
tude of the Indian race for the military career
was being verified and that the men of this
breed were nobly showing their zeal for the
great cause" He quoted from the official A.

In connection with the Indian in the Civil
War. Dr. Dixon tells the following story:
Indian Ended Civil War
"It is related by Dr. George Haven Putnam
that when Grant and Lee had gathered at APP
pomattox, in arranging the details of the sur
render, Grant looked about the group in the
room, his eye falling on Gen. JohL Morgan,
a brigade commander who had during the
last few months served on Grants staff. Gen

dian belonging to the Iroquois tribe Of New
York. Thus it was that an Indian joined the
hands Of the north and south after more
than four years Of bloody strife"
There were a large number of Indians who
enlisted in both the Union and Confederate
armies. At the present time there is post

Menominee reservation in Wisconsin, COM
posed entirely of Indian veterans of the Civil
War. Many Of them wear decorations of
honor for bravery in battle.

and their numbers are actually increasing,

PROPOS or recent statement tnat the
n railroads should be in the markets for
a billion dollars worth of betterments,
and would be if their condition were more
prosperous, the Louisville Courier-Journal
makes an interesting calculation on what
the farmers outlay for improvements would
be if they saw the way clear to undertake
them.
Supposing that there are seven million
farms which thus would spend modest
average of two hundred dollars each, the
Courer-Journal indicates the divers fields OF
industry and merchandise that would share
in the resultant purchasing Of one billion
four hundred million dollars worth of ma
terial and equipment. Fences, buildings,
roads, bitches, require frequent repairs. The
average farm has four miles of fence. There
is an increasing use of hard roads within
farm gates, for motor vehicles. There is an
increasing use of power in farming and gaso-
line engines require maintenance and occa-
sional replacement. There is an increasing
use Of trucks and tractors and passenger
automobiles on farms. They require mainte-
nance and replacement. conservative es-
innate of what farmers would spend in 1922
for betterment. if agriculture were paying six
per cent net will show that they would spend
more than the billion which railroaders say
the railroads should spend for betterment."
The calculation serves to emphasize for
the country as whole what has long been
apparent in Georgia, namely, the exceeding
Importance of the farmers restored purchas-
ing power as a factor in business recovery.
Agriculture is the basis of trade, as we'll as
of industry and commerce. Business leaders,
then, cannot do better than cooperate with
all the resources at their command toward
solving the problems on which farm prosper
ity depends. In Georgia this is largely mat
ter of providing adequate markets for the
food crops that must be raised on the acre
age from which the boil weevil has driven
cotton, and of encouraging by other means
the production of food necessities. This will
do much to put into circulation the millions
of dollars which due to be expended for
farm betterments.

4 Notable Endorsement of
the Highway Bond Issue
= HEARTILY indorsing the proposed

z N HEARTILY indorsing the proposed
State bond issue of seventy-five million
dollars for better highways the mid-win-
ter session of the Georgia Press Association
has voiced the soundest judgment and the
halest sentiment of the Commonwealth. No
other group of citizens can speak more ad-
visedly of what is needed in thrs regard and
of what is generally desired. AS practiced
observers of the life about them and inter
prefers of public opinion, these editors, repre-
senting every district from the mountains to
the sea, are convinced that the highway bond
issue is a necessity and are assured that it is
favored by the thoughtful and informed.
Hence they give the measure their warmest
approval.
Any association or any citizen that looks
fully and carefully into the question will
reach, we believe, this same conclusion. That
Georgia is urgently in need of Statewide
system of modern roads is self-ev1dent to all
who take the pains to observe. true 1t is
that her progress in highway improvement IN
recent years has been nOta Bile; In the last
twelvemonth she has built more and better
roads than aforetime were secured IN Whole
decades. Individual counties have gone lib
orally forward with such construction; while
the state itself, acting through its able nigh
way department., has done much to encourage
this kind of enterprise and to assure the eff
cient use of federal and county funds. But
richly gratifying as the results unquestlonaDly
are, the fact remains that vast deal more
must be done if the progressive individual
communities are to reap Alright from what
they already have expended and If the State
is to have the adequate, unified system OF
highways which it's upbuilding so imperative
ly demands.
But how are these far-ranging improve
ments to be obtained? The only feasible an
swer is bona issue. This can be so ordered
say those who have studied the matter, that
scventy-five million dollars worth of highway
extension and betterment can be provided
without burdening any interest. NO subject
now before the people is of more practical
moment to the rank and file. None is OF
keener concern to agriculture to trade, TO
civic development, and to educational and So
cial progress. The Press Association has
sounded an Endorsement that should be taken
I'D in every town and countryside and ring
ing throughout the Commonwealth until
the highway bond issue is an accomplished
fact.

The Fa11ac;es of Jack Cade
N A peculiarly incisive comment on tt

T N A peculiarly incisive comment on the
| fallacies of communism President Ma
saryk, wise old leader of Czecho-
Slovakia observes: ''The first theorist OF COM
munism, Plato, prescribed the most severe
moral discipline; its last theorlst, Marx, also
regards it as the final and highest stage OF
historic evolution. The Russian experiment,
which has resulted in appalling consequences,
was undertaken with an uneducated and NOR
ally disordered people. communism on
purely economic and materialistic basis is al
together impossible"
What men need and what they gropingly
strive for is, not system that will work long
ages hence, when "some far off divine event
has TRANSPORTED human life, but one that
will work now and be itself transflgurlng
and forwarding power. If communism could
produce the virtues on which it's subsistence
is assumed to depend, then assuredly 1t would
be of all forms of government most desirable.
But does it, and can it? How modern, how
familiar ring the words Of Jack Cade harangu-
ing his fifteenth century London mob: There
shall be in England seven half-penny loaves
sold for penny; the three-hooped pot snail
have ten hoops; and will make it felony to
drink small beer. All the realm shall be in
common, and in Cheapside shall my palfrey
go to grass. And when I am king, there shall
be no money. will apparel all in one livery
that they may agree like brothers. There,
in Shakespeare's unerring Characterization,
are the mind and heart of the philosophy that
has made Lenine's Russia so woeful specta-
Gle. Not until humanity can pull itself up by
it's bootstraps and build abidingly on merely
economic and materialistic basis, will it be
exalted or prospered by communism. Men will
not agree like brothers from "baing apparel
led all in one livery"
No form of government will vouchsafe
freedom and fraternity and progress; only
a spirit of government can do so. Forms have
their advantages and disadvantages as aids
and hindrances to the working out of an in
ner will; but to depend upon them to solve the
ever old and ever new problems of human
history is like mistaking a platter for food or
an empty cup for living water. No greater
LIBERAL no stancher Democrat has watched
and pondered the changeful life of the last
half-century or so than the late Viscount
Bryce. And this, in substance, is his conclu-
sion on the matter as set down in his MOD
ERN DEMOCRACIES: eff democracy Is to be
saved it must be by the aristocracy of Chris,

government-so runs the order. The effect
will hardly precede the cause, nor the part
prove greater than the whole, nor the made
excel the maker.
