DAINTY WOMEN USE
 POWDER NATURALLY
"oht to see her is to love her, Love but her, and love forever" Burns.

When you see girls and women con tinually dabbng their faces with powder puff, or glancing with appre- hension in every mirror to see if their powder is still on, you know they are simply guessing and experimenting, so to speak, with the vital and delicate problem of keeping ones appearance attractive and pleasing.
 By first using the Peroxide (Vanish- ., ing) Cream, which bears the Black and White label, after thoroughly cleaning the pores and the surface of the skin, your face powder will stay on until you wash again. That is true, because |, Black and White Peroxide Cream disap- pears from the surface, but leaves the skin in it's natural condition, furnishing a perfect base for the face powder to Rdhere to. It does not dry out the skin, which is the main reason so many girls { have to keep powderinR their faces. Dealers everywhere are now selling 7 nearly two million of the BIG airtight 25c jars of Black and White Peroxide Y Cream year

APPALACHIAN PARK
INQUIRY Determined
Not to Go Farther North Than
Southern Pennsylvania Bor-
der, Decision.

The southern boundary of Pennsyl-
vania will be the northern boundary
of an inquiry to determine a site for
a new national park to be located in
the Appalachian mountains OF the
east, the Appalachian national park
committee anpounced today. at the
conclusion of its initial meeting. At
the same time the committee an
nounced that questionnaires have
been sent to communities in seven
states suggesting national park sites
ranging from a few hundred acres to
many square miles
Three cities in Virginia-Staunton
Harrisonburg and Big Knob--in addi-
tion to Wise County. Va, have sug-
gested sites for the park.
Area without Park.
Giving as it's reason for selecting
the southern boundary of Pennsyiva-
mia as the northern limit Of its in
quiry, the committee explained that
there is no national park nor many
state parks in the southern Appa-
lachians. New York has many state
parks scattered through its mountain
ar reas, while New England already has

land, off the Maine coast The ques-
tionnaires sent out by the committee

possible purchase price.

tons of the territory, and the COM
mittee will make a personal inspec-
ton of the most available sites after
all the data is compiled.

DAUGHERTY SCORES
SENATE WITNESSES
Declares He Hopes Country Will
Not Believe Gust
Plain Lies"

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., March %
Besieged by newspaper men ever
since his arrival here at $40 o'clock
yesterday afternoon former Attorney
General Harry NJ Daugherty decided
to issue a formal statement in con-
nection with his resignation. AS he
handed a sheet OF hotel stationary,
upon which he had scrawled a few
lines. to a group of insistent report
ers, he said: Well, boys, L hope I'll
be let alone for a while now" The
statement follows:
II know nothing further to say at
this time or while here, as far as ]
know, except to take advantage OF
this my first opportunity to advise
the country that I hope the lies told
by irrespon n sib BILE So-called witne SSes s
as to immoral conduct. disgraceful
doings and improper associations on
my part will not be believed
"They are just plain lies procured
to be told to create prejudice. Con-
sidering that the committee is with
out legal authority to make inquiry
into any such subjects. prosecuu ton
for perjury would fail. Ny friends
know full well the kind OF life /
have always lived"
After issuing the statement Mr..
Daugherty left the hotel for g. walk
along the boardwalk. He took the
elevator to the street floor, evidently
wishing to avoid walking through
the crowded lobby, where his arrival
had created a stir earlier in the eve
ming.

HAT LINING IS CLUE
| IN ATTACK ON COUPLE
Prince Georges Officials Hopeful Of
Getting Bandits Who Beat
Mother and Son.

A thorough Investigation was un-
der way today under the supervision
of Sheriff William E. Fugftt and
States Attorney Alan Bowie Of Prince
Georges county. in connection with
the brutal assault upon Mrs. Evelyn
Simmons, ninety-one years old, and
her son William Simmons, ffty-eight,
and the subsequent robbery by mask
ed bandits at their home in Sidney,
Nd, yesterday morning.
Sheriff Fugitt, 1t is understood, al
ready has run two clues to fruit
less conclusion, but he has embarked
on a new angle which was said to be
highly promising today Importance
of the latest clue may be judged by
the fact that a call for assistance was
sent today to Baltimore, where De-
tective Carroll was detailed for ex-
pert assistance in connection with the
Investigation.
Sheriff Fugitt and tSate's Attorney
Bowie conferred this afternoon along
lines for the speedy prosecution of
the investigation
Two suspects were quizzed by
Sheriff Fugitt late yesterday after
noon, but no important disclosures
were made. 1t is understood that
both were completely exone-ated.
The next step will be a joint con-
ference between Detective Carroll of
Baltimore, the sheriff and Mr.. Bowie.
One Of the clews in the hands of the
investigators is the lining of mans
felt hat, bearing the size mark of
62. Atttent ton is being centered on
running down the owner of this hat.

TENLEYTOWN Thief

The lone burglar visited eleven

locked, but the majority he was com
PEELED to force up. In no case did he
dare to venture upstairs. causing the
police to believe he was unarmed. It
was also ascertained that before en-
tering each home he took of his shoes.
