M|LADY TO CHANGE
FACIAL LANDSCAPE
Universal Service staff Correspondent.

Universal Service Staff Correspondent.
CHICAGO, Nov. 2G.-It was all
very well last year, but for heavens
sake, girls, don't be yourselves this
winter. If you don't want to be point
ed out as an antique, lose not time in
changing the old facial landscape.
Faces can become as declasse from
season to season, not to say from
morning to night, as hats, according to
the beauty culturists assembled at the
first annual convention of the Ameri.
can Association Of Beauty Culture
Schools.
For instance, they warn that tC
wear the same complexion with which
you top off your negligee as when you
go out to dinner in your white chif
fon gown is an affront to your
hostess.
You commit just as objectionable {
breach of etiquette when you wcai
your mauve evening complexion out
motoring.
It's just these little things thai
stamp you a Mrs. Malaprop socially
according to the beauty experts, who
point out that observance of these
apparently unimportant details is re
sponsible for the internationally fa
nous Mrs. Jean Nash's sartorial pre-
eminence and Peggy Joyce's defines:

RESTRICTION
PROVISION

The right of city subdivision de-
velopers TO enforce building restric-
tons received the approval of the
Fourth Court of Civil Appeals in an
opinion handed down Wednesday.
"The courts recognize with favor
that people may laudably desire to
create restricted residential districts
where they may enjoy home life apart
from any class or business environ
ments," the opinion, which was writ
ten by Associate Justice Thomas d.
Cobbs, held.
BEAUTIFUL CITY.
"San Antonians are proud of their
beautiful city, its parks, its clean river.
its beautiful homes and residential
and restricted districts where people
desire TO come into neighborly contact
with others of like tastes, away from
the suggestion Of business care and
commercialism and where, having fin
ished for the day their downtown busy
cares and worries, they may turn to
the beauties and delights of the pri-
vacy of home life. and the inspiring
joys that one enjoys in his private
castle; and the law favors him." the
decision reads.
BARS APARTMENT.
The decision was in affirming a case
from Bexar county in which a perpet-
nal injunction was issued against T..
l.. Austin in favor of f. w. Richard
son and others, restraining the former
from conducting an apartment house
on Fast Park avenue in the Woods
and Paschal subdivision of San An
tonic.
The deed to the property included
n provision that the purchaser of the
land should not build an apartment
or business house thereon. The house
in question is said to have first been
built as a private home, but was later
changed into a duplex apartment
house.

NEED
AID FROM STATE
Moulton Says State is Inter
ested in Reclamation as
Well as Nation

"The state is, and should be, in
terested in reclamation, notwithstand-
ing the governors statement that
the state was getting out of the bus
iness as speedily as possible" said
M. M. Moulton who has recently re-
turned from three weeks tour thru
the irrigated sections as member
of the national board of adjustment.
However, it is my belief that Gov.
Hartley was right when he refused
to sign the Kittitas contract" con-
tinued Mr.. Moulton. "The state can
not finance or manage efficiently,
the settlement of project, but it is
the duty of the state to assist in the
financing of construction. The various
states should be as much or more
interested in the settlement and de-
velopment of their own lands as the
federal government, surely"
The hearings which the board held
in the irrigated districts indicated
that troubles developed under three
general heads - insufficient water,
the fact that the worthless land was
included within projects and the ex-
cessive overhead expense. Insuffi-
cient water was due to lack of early
knowledge of requirements The in
clusion of land within the various
districts which would not give suf-
ficient return was done largely to re-
duce the apparent per acre construc-
tion cost. This plan has increased the
operating costs on the remainder of
the acreage. The mounting overhead
expenses arc due to several causes,
drainage, local improvement districts,
highway construction, etc. In some
instances this overhead has reached
$35 to $40 per acre per annum. This
in addition to the mortgage indebt-
edness.
Irrigation projects, according 10
Mr.. Moulton, can be made outstand-
ing successes in this section provid-
ing certain policies are followed. The
requirement of a sufficient water
supply, the exclusion of all worthless
land from the project retaining only
that which the average farmer can
successfully operate and by the state
granting aid in the financing of con-
struction.
