JUSTICE FILLS OPENS
CONVENTION
Cooperation is Keynote of Ad.
dress of Florida Jarist To
Utilities Association

MIAMI. Fla, Dec. by the
Associated Press. Exercise of a
spirit of friendly cooperation with
the Interstate Commerce commits
sion of the United States was urged
by Justice William H. Ellis, of the
Florida Supreme court, in an adj
dress here today before the OPEN
ing session of a four days conven-
ton of the National Association of
Railroad and Utilities commission
ers. The keynote of the address
was state relations to interstate
commerce.
Sc Florida with all. her good
things and great opportunities well
come YOU" said Justice Ellis. MAY
you find here the intellectual food
you desire and the inspiration you
need to help you to the solution Of
your problems"
Little or no good can come out
Of animosities and suspicious and
hatreds. The logical result of such
emotions is war and distress and
Reorganization; but we want peace
and prosperity.
i think that any candidate for
public office who seeks office to
gain popularity and votes by at
tempting to arraign the people Of
one vocatiun or religion or business
against those Of another vocation
or faith demonstrates at once his
unfitness, Intellectually and moral
ly, to serve a free and Independent
people.
You are concerned primarily
with transportation problems and
commerce." he said, and cited au-
thorities to show that the power of
regulating these lines in congress in
their interstate relationships. The
power to regulate commerce en-
braces all instruments by which it
may be conducted and the persons
and corporations by which it is
carried on, he added.
There is no room," said he.
quoting Justice Hughes of the Unit
ed States Supreme cour1 in Mime
sofa rate case, Gin our scheme of
government for the assertion Of the
state power in hostility to the au-
thorized exercise of federal power.
The authority extends to every part
OF the interstate commerce and to
every instrumentality or agency by
which it is carried on, and the full
control by congress of the subjects
committed to its regulation is not
to be denied or thwarted by the
commingling of interstate and in
trastate operations.
Controversies and conflicts of
jurisdiction usually arise in eases
where the subject matter admits
OF diversity or treatment accord
ing to local conditions. and in such
cases the states may act subject

My Beauty
Came from clay-and clay has kept it
~ Edna Wc,'cce Hoppe

Today you hear much about fac
lal clays. I learned about them 20
years ago in France. Then they
were crude and muddy, like most
clays now. But they multiplied my
beauty. And now that same clay,
vastly perfected, keeps me a beauty
at my grand old age.
Some of you have been amazed
at what clay does for women. Even
those old-type clays. No other aid
to beauty ever did one-tenth so
much
But there.is now new-type clay,
white, refined and dainty. French
scientists, by 20 years, of study
have multiplied its powers. Mark
what that clay did for me. After
40 years in the limelight l look like
a girl of 10.
Now | am enabling all to get it,
and urge you to find it.
The Supreme Help
Clay does more for women's beau
ty than all other aids combined. 1t
purges the skin of all that clogs it
the causes of sallowness, black
heads and blemishes.
1t brings the blood to the skin
to nourish and revive it. The re-
suit is that rosy afterglow which
so amazes and delights. Many wo-
men, with one application, seem to
drop ten years.
1t firms the skin, combats all
lines and wrinkles, reduces enlarged
pores. My baby complexion, at the
age of 60, shows what constant use

my physical structure, my mind is

ment." She gave a slight unno-
ticed shiver. my memory, that for
years before the war was dull and
inactive. is now as vigorous as
ever"
Several of the women recalled
those old stories Of Countess Eat
tiany's youth, and looked at her
sharply. There was a general at
mosphere of uneasiness in the large
respectable room. But whether or
not they gave her the benefit of the
doubt, they had always given her
due credit for neither being found
out nor embarrassing her virtuous
friends with condolences.
Mrs. Tracy was the first. to break
the silence. But you will come to
all of US as long as you stay,
will you not? | do so want to give
you dinner next week"
yes, yes, indeed" The chorus
was eager, and sincere enough.
After all, nothing could alter the
fact that she was one of them.
ooh, have enjoyed meeting you
all again, and l am hoping to see
more Of you" Madame Zattiany
felt that she could do no less than
be gracious. Il have become a very
quiet person, but l will go with
pleasure"
"You must let US see you daily
while you are with u.s." cried Mrs.
Goodrich, her spirits soaring at the
prospect. AS Mary stood up and
adjusted her hat before the mirror
she felt that she bad successfully
distracted their attention from a
quick sigh of utter boredom. "Yos
are too kind, Nelly" she murmurea
but then you always were"
Yes, go. Mary" said Mrs. Ogle-
thorpe peremptorily, and rising al
so, Clear out and let them talk
you over. They'll burst IL you don
Human nature can stand just s.
much and no more"
Madame zattiany took her leave
amid much laughter, more or less
perfunctory, and one and all, what.
ever their reactions, insisted that
she must give her old friends the
pleasure Of entertaining her, and CT
seeing her as often as possible as
