pageant Girls Attributes Must
Be Dignity and Intellect
uaIity, SAYS One.

Indianapolis womanhood suggests
dignity, intellectually and graceful
ness.
That is the idea of June Winona
Snyder, 71S Highland Ave, in letter
received by The Times Pageant Editor
concerning the qualifications that Miss
Indianapolis should possess.
when one thinks Of Indianapolis
womanhood, does he not instinctively
recall such qualities as dignity, intel
Iectuality. gracefulness?" she writes.
Surely the girl or woman, representa-
tive Of the true spirit of our lovely
city, manifests these qualities.
''She also must be pure. courteous
and sweet of manner, lovely of dispo-
sition, strong in character, matured.
''She should be affable and joyous,
though not frivolous nor giddy. She
is progressive and alert, though not
happerish nor extreme.
There are many such lovely types

indeed be beautiful" Miss Snyder
writes.
A plea for the beautiful and COM
mon sensed working girl is made in a
letter received from Mrs. Emma
Brock. Brooklyn, r. R. 2.
In her opinion Miss Indianapolis
should be one who don't use powder
or paint and face lotions. or cold

have her hair done up in puff. or
don't have bobbed hair. She should be

eide whether she shall use f1apper

Antony stopped smoothing himself
and looked up at him thoughtfully.

his pipe and tobacco into the pocket
of his black coat. We'll. let's come

Cayley was waiting for them in the

You were quite right about the

"Keys?" said Ceyley blankly.

were outside or inside"

round the hall. at the different doors,
and then smiled in a friendly way at
Antony. I'VE both seem to have been

EQUAL PLACE FOR

Ann Martin Believes Sex Should

Men In Congress.

NEW YORK-Women voters In
America should have equal representa-

Ann Martin of Nevada asserted upon

she made study of woman suffrage

Association, became chairman of the
National Woman's Party and was the
first woman nominated for United
States Senator.
Thirty-Seven In Reichstag

comes up the men leave it to them
to discuss and decide" said Miss

Society Toes Expert Talks

DR.. John kenison. who has been
handling society women's toes for
nigh on thirty years. made this ex-
pert pronouncement:
Cutting off the little toe leaves the
third toe unprotected. Nature has
given the little toe thick skin TO
protect it. but when 1t is cut away it
leaves the third toe unprotected and
is almost certain to cause all kinds of
trouble"
DR.. Kenison says the toes OF society
women are no different from any one
else's toes. except sometimes they're
better taken care of.
