COMEBoDY ought to organize
y a Male Beauty Contest with
the women as the judges.
The feminine idea of mascu-
line beauty is something to which
men have never given a thought.
A man Just looks in the mirror
and says. "Oh' well, | may be a
little bald and little overweight
but there's something darned at
tractive about meat that!
But if women would break their
conspiracy of silence and voice
their iongings for beauty In the
male some Of the starry-eyed
long.lashed heroes of Hollywood
would receive the surprise OIL
their lives.
No man could win 2 Beauty
Prize in his bathing suit. Be-
cause, while a woman is beautt-
full according to what she reveals,
a man is beautiful only in pro
norton to what he CONCEALS.
The man who could most sue
cessfully hide his Adams apple
and camouflage his feet, would
undoubtedly receive the first prize
in anv contest. The man who
knew what to do with his hands
while posing for a photograph
would receive honorable mention.
And the man who had the
best tailor and knew how to keep
his evening shirt from bullying
would come somewhere high up
on the list.
Good shoulders, good teeth and
a winning smile would count Tar
more than soulful eyes and a
Valentino waistline. And strong
chin would far outweigh a Whole
head of curly hair. E
A bald head might pass un-
noticed-but mustache, Il beard,
mr. ANY hair on the face would
utterly disqualify Adonis himself
as beauty" in every woman's
ewes. Women just simply HATE
hair on a mans face! Why DO
thew cultivate it? A woman may
love a man in SPITE of his
mustache-but not BECAUSE of
it!
Height, of course, every woman
admires: because no matter how
strong and independent she may
be. a woman always yearns to
look UP" to a man! If she mar
ried a worm, she would probably
dig a hole in the ground and
crawl down into it. so that she
could lay her head on his shoulder
and murmur, Darling, how big
and brave and strong you are!
But the one vital. shining point
in the list of a mans charms and
attractions which women really
admire is that intangible some
thing called PERSONALITY
force, character, virility which
expresses itself in his face. eyes,
bearing, and his whole figure.
Women don't notice what
mans features are like if they
express strength. poise, and a
general healthy HE-NESS-
Narcissus. Adonis. and Apollo
wouldn't stand chance of winning
third prize in any beauty con-
test where women were the judges!
1t takes lot of character.
a lot of intelligence, and a lot of
clothes to make any man really
beautiful in a woman's eyes.
Oh, yes, personality is the
foundation of all masculine beau
ty-personality, and the barber
shop, and the linen collar, and
the safety razor! ~

FORM AT A
DINNER PARTY.
MRS. Cornelius Beeckman
nEAR MRS. BEEcKMAN:

NEAR MRS. BEECkMAN:
Is it good form to carve the
meat before putting 1t on the
table and then pass the platter TO
each guest in his turn for his
helping? This would be for an in
formal dinner.
~ Should the salad be placed
on the side of the dinner plate or
SHOULD it be served separately?
81 In using bread and butter
plates, should the butter be placed
on them before the guests are
seated?
"a Should a linen or crocheted
cover be used on a silver cake
plate? NJ. E. E.
YES. this is excellent form for

NAL dinner. If possible, the pieces

en-, and with roast lamb. OF
course also it is good form to
have the carving done at the
table-if there is a skillful carver.
II there is not. the way that you
suggest is best.
90 This is according to taste.
Many people like to have their
salad with the roast course, and
this is proper at informal dinners.
However, If the salad as flea
tured" it is made separate
course, after the roast course,
and with it is served crackers,
usually heated, and some kind of
cheese. Since with the roast
course one of two vegetables Is
usually served. the salad often
means one too many accompani-
ments and is often in the way.
This is one of the reasons why it
Is usually served as a separate
course
90 Yes) this IL usually more
convenient.

bORAH ASKS ALIEN
PROPERTY RETURN
Opposition on Both Sides of
Senate Provoked by Bills
Introduction.

The proposal that the billion dollar
trust fund now administered by the
alien property custodian, be returned
to its former enemy owners, was re-
vived yesterday in the Senate, to meet
opposition from both sides of the
chamber.
Chairman Borah of the foreign re-
lations committee introduced a bill
proposing restoration be made on
the Presidents order to be issued
after authentication of an application
from the alien owner. He further pro-
posed that indemnity should be paid
for ships seized in American harbors
where they took asylum on the out
break of hostilities and that the Gov
ernment repossess itself Of patents
and other property sold or leased
after seizure.
The bill was referred in regular
course to the judiciary committee
which has long had on it's calendar
similar proposals by Senator Borah
and Senator King, Democrat, Utah.
against Morality and Decency."
The Idaho Senator asserted that
retention of the property, especially
that Of German citizens, which had
been protected by treaty, was a vio-
lation of the soundest principles of
morality, international decency and
common honesty" and he added that
further reasons for restoration might
be found in the official statement that
arrangements had been completed for
settlement OF American claims in Ger
many. Senator Borah also stressed
the waste through maladministra-
tion of more than a million dollars
Of these funds" while under govern
ment control.
Senator Swanson of Virginia, rank
ing Democratic member Of the for
eign relations committee; Senator
Simmons of North Carolina, occupy
ing a similar position on the Senate
finance committee, and other Demo-
Gratis argued strenuously against the
United States taking the initiative in
returning property until assured that
GermanX would reciprocate. Other
wise, Senator Swanson held. I'VE will
