AS SHE DRESSES

DiSTRICr ATTORNEY w. J. BROWN,
IL Of StanSlaus county. Calf, has set
the morals workers 10 boiling with these
declarations:
The manner in which the women dress
TO-DAY is one of the causes of the lowering
IF morality in America, / expect a squaw-
man, or a man with water in his veins
instead of blood 10 take a different view
The gentleman expresses the view of n
minority of American men, but only
minority. The vast majority consider that
women today dress more Sensibly and
honestly than ever before. Few sensible
men would like TO see the women return
to long skirts, hoops. bustleS, corsets and
other contraptions which, only n few
years ago, were held to indicate correct
style and modeSty.
Fact is that woman is emancipating
herself from the Squawman's and water
blooded mans dictum as 10 modesty and
morality, to the advancement of her own
health and independence.
Morality in dress is a matter of geo
graphy and custom. There is no immorr
ality in the African nakedneSs, and there
have been times when civilized woman in
an over-abundance of clothes made exh-
billions which we of today would call
highly immoral
The trouble with the critics is that
they are extraordinarily shocked by the
. immodeSt OF immoral exceptions. There
always are such exceptions If women
took to wearing full-length barrel, there
would be some women whose barrels
would have some of the slaves missing.
But the eXrantionS arc nof fair Grounds
upon which to base decision that wom-
ems dress is lowering American morals.
Woman is dressing more sensibly. She
exhibits her paint honestly. And il is,
indeed, the squawman who can be
shocked into despair of the nation by an
! inch or two, more or less. of her calf.

HONORING A PROPHET
IN HER OWN COUNTRY


Richard Barthelmess, as the hero,
Ito put it in common parlance, J
gave a splendid portrayal of the
part He was in love with the
snob's cousin, and in Difference to
her, tried to be lenient in his role
of superior officer. But finally
he was led to thrash the snob after
having been insulted beyond en-
durance.
The snob, like the coward he was,
claimed he had been blinded by a
blow from Barthelmess' fist. This
caused the latter's dismissal from
West Point, and the snob's cousin
promptly "threw him down." and,
believing her cousins story that
Barthelmess had been a jealous
brute, she promised to marry the
snob.
Whereupon the snob departs with
an expedition for the interior of
South America where he becomes
lost in the jungle. The girl charges
Barthelmess with being a murderer
for having blinded her cousin so
that he was helpless in the jungle
and would surely perish.
Barthelmess determines to find him
and bring him back to tell the
truth of their encounter so as to
Windieate himself in the eyes of the
girl. There follow the exciting adj
ventures of his party in the jungle,
the treachery of their guides, starva-
ton and suffering during which the
snob is found and brought back.
There is the reconciliation of
Barthelmess and the girl, his re-
instatement at West Point, ending
with marriage in the great chapel
of the Academy. But this does not
give you the sweetness of the love
story as portrayed in the picture,
nor the thrills of the West Point
jungle.
Miss Turnbull has proven in this
play that the public as whole
does not love bunkum in its enter
tainment. She said Barthelmess had
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1925-04-16

told her that Classmates" had made
more money than any other picture
he had produced. This proves that
the public loves clean, wholesome
movies, despite the fact that some
producers blame the public for de-
handing movies of bunkum and sex
intrigue.
But cleverer typewriters than mine
have applauded this work of Miss
Turnbull's. Reviewers and critics all
over the country have praised "Class-
mates" Metropolitan newspapers and
magazines have devoted valuable
space in extolling the charm of
this play. Still it is appropriate
that Miss Turnbull should be done
honor IN her own country. And al
tho this tribute is puny in compar-
ison to the many she has received
| challenge any of them to be more
heartily sincere than this.
She tells me that she has just
signed a contract with the new
magazine, Liberty" in which she
will begin serial story in the near
future. She is not at liberty to
give the title of it until the first
installment appears, but you should
look for it. Also she has a novel
in course of publication in Chicago,
and another in England She prom
ises to inform us as soon as
these are off the press.
On referring to my copy of
"Who's Who" | find that Miss Turn
bull was born in Scotland. She came
to this country at the age of two
years, and received her primary edu-
cation in Arlington, N. J. The list
of her works is too long to publish
here, but if you saw Classmates"
you will agree that she has justly
won her laurels.
