Clues to Character
Lacking in Patience
By J. d. .ABERNETHl.

The so-called Roman nose" is lack
ing in patience. While it expresses
energy, force and desire to command,
to lead and not to be led. its owner
must accomplish his desires quickly.
This type cannot be depended upon
for steady. perSevering efforts in any
line of endeavor. Where detail must
be carefully worked out success Is
rarely attained by him along these
lines. lie is a chronic worrier and ex-
pends too much energy over small mat
ters. thus quickly eXhausting himself
physically and mentally.
If the Roman nose is accompa MED
by projecting chin, there will be eau
tion in attack and obstinaCy in de
Tense. When these features. there
fore. are we'll developed in the same
face. aggressiveness and cautiousness
are balanced. neither trait being pro
nounced. as when one feature is strong
and the other weak
This type of nose may be large or
small. broad or narrow. long or short
\ large nose is more aSSertive than a
small one: broad nose is evidence of
greater strength of character than a
narrow one. and a long nose more
forceful than a short one. The fiat
Roman nose is sign of more stub
bornness than aggressiveness.

statel.' and rather grand. The first
seems very much smaller than the
other. yet it contains exactly as many
and as large rooms. Ii these things
can be done in architecture why can
not they be done in dressnlaking?
They can and seemingly they have
been done. In days of old men APP
piled these principles of optical delu-
sion to their buildings. Now they ap-
ply them to the making of women S
clothes. Yet there are still numerous
overweight women who wear clothes
that add pounds TO their apparent size
rather than take them away.
One expert on this matter assures
us that there is no line that does so
much to make the figure look slender
as the line that approaches the con
tour of an y. 1t gives the appearance
of considerably greater slenderness
than two parallel vertical lines The
sketch shows a frock of this sort-a
little work with ruler and pencil and
paper will show you how the principle
of the thing works.

BEER IS LURING THEM ID CANADA
Americans FlOckins There to
 Go Into Business

! Detroit. April 4.--Beer with a A per cent alcoholic content that bc retailed at five cents a glass, as i, now regarded as virtually assured ir ontario, has cerated swift boom a In realty across the Detroit river Ir Windsor. Walkerville. Sandwich and adjacent resort territory, Windsor real estate men said today. Ferries plying between Detroit and Windsor yesterday bore many AmericaDs who sought summer cot. tages along the Detroit river, Lake St. Clair or Lake Erie. Other Ameri- cans sought business property in Windsor suitable for the operation Of saloons as soon as Ontario's IA per cent beer bill becomes a law. Americans Hold Options
 For several months number of valuable corner properties in down. town Windsor hay been under op- ton to Americans, 1t was said today at the office of the Michigan prohibi- ton director where the movement to legalize the sale of real beer in On- tario has been watched with inter- est.
 There will be no delay in the sale Of beer when the Ontario govern- ment announces that the pending bill legalizing the sale is operative. Ofl- clals of Windsor and Walkerville, Ont, breweries yesterday said the beer already Is manufactured. '
 Real estate dealers in Windsor to- day in most cases reported only iso- lated resort and business property for sale or rent.
 Like the Alaskan treasure of '9s, they saw riches before them, for the hot weather is coming on, and the trade of Detroit is eager to enjoy its malt beverage on the Canadian side at the price of 5 cents a glass instead of 30.
 Real Estate Men Busy
 Windsor real estate offices were unusually busy, The announcemenr that a restaurant and two small hotels were for sale added to the excitement. The present indications arc that bidding will be brisk.
 Real estate men were forced to hand out the Sold Out" sign when confronted by cottage seekers. Most of the summer homes along the river have been rented at prices rang ing from $500 to $500 for the sea- son. A few subleases are offered, but the price for these is at least 50 per cent higher than the original.
 A number of roadhouses are being reopened by real estate syndicates and will be placed on the market.
 Beer With Kick
 Officials of the British-American Brewing Go, announced that the beer with kick" is already manu- factured. As soon as the legislation goes into effect 1t will go on the market.
 Malcolm G. Campbell of the Bor- der Cities Branch of the Ontario Moderation league said today:
 'The greatest possible effort will be put forth to see that the border cities do not get black eye from the sale of beer. We believe that the traffic will be handled satisfactorily to every one concerned.

 The mayors proclamation follows:
 The week of April (, 1925, has been designated as Clean Up weeis'' and t is my desire that the people or New Britain should unite and put forward their best energies in an ef- fort to bring the city to a state of cleanliness. Such articles as old fur niture and rubbish which are often stored in cellar and attics tend to produce very dangerous and unsan- itary conditions. Rubbish offers a breeding place for germs, rats and other pests which are dangerous to the life and health Of tie com fnunity.
 "Carelessness and neglect by peo- pie in their failure to clean out un- slightly conditions often results in serious fire losses. A committee of men prominent in all walks of life has been appointed to take charge of the campaign, but with all their best energies they are helpless without the aid and cooperation of the peo- pie. Information concerning collec- ton and dumping of rubbish may be had at the office of the mayor or health department or at police or fire headquarters. ,."
 'It is my hope and the hone of the committee in charge of the cam paign that each and every indiyid- ual will consider 1t civic and moral duty to do his part in the campaign so that on Easter Sunday the sun will rise on s city which is credit to the state and country. ~t

GRAND JURY SCORES
 POLICE, IS REBUKED
Philadelphia Judge Objects to Criti- Y cism of Members of 
 Department

Philadelphia, April IA grand jury which criticized police methods of enforcing liquor laws was re. buked by Judge Gordon in quarter sessions court yesterday for being "so obviously eager to rush to, the aid of those who are defying and ig- norlng the laws of the land"
 The grand jury for March, in its report, asserted that "our cherished moral laws are fauntingly broken and tramped under foot in a scram- ble to procure an ounce or two of so-called liquor, to be used as evi- dence in upholding the execution of the Volstead law"
 The passage referred specifically to an alleged unwarranted search of a Philadelphia home recently. A police lieutenant and a detective were subsequently, indicted for tho act.
 !, When public safety depart ment becomes a peril to peaceful homes," the report stated. then our civilization starts to slide from its summit"
 Judge Gordon accused the jury of ignoring many indictments! alleging unlawful possession, sale and trans portation of intoxicating liquor.
 "The presetment of a grand jury is not the proper vehicle for the encouragement of law breaking, or indulging in propaganda against laws you are sworn to enforce" the court. declared.
 General Butler. director of public safety, on learning of the tiff be- tween the jury and Judge Gordon, said he agreed with the judge thoroughly. Three women were members of the jury which submit ted the report.
