POSING TEINS RANKS
 OF PROFESSIONAL GIRL MODELS

culeses to the growing generation
 of artists.
 Around the stove of the ante-
 chamber of the Grande Chaumiere
 every Monday during the winter season crowds the haphazard, hap py-go- lucky mass of models look ing for work. Pretty, most of them. Most of the girls are French. The fall of the franc,
 the high cost of living, are fnlt here too. Before the war the French girl generally was relu.s- ltant to pose nude. Now she com ipares studio life advantageously |Iwith the dreary office routine or he stuffy workshop. When she lis tired of working, she goes out !top pose for a few weeks. .. si.a |i "It's a good life, guess" said Zone little girl with a childish face, |s''but you eat up in the summer Everything you make in the win .ter. Are. you an, artist, sir? If iyou had been I'd have asked you |to try me out. I've been here Fall morning without even a 15- franc pose! And such crowd land no place to sit down."
 s The Paris theatres have been
 undressing to such an extent that even the amateur mQdels accus-
 tom themselves quickly sto posing
 in the nude. A few siivers the sfirst time before thirty pairs of
 cool, appraising eyes and then 1t
 is as natural as going to the dress
 makers. Thirty pieces of char
 coal are scratching thirty can vases. Thirty glances absorb the contours of the figure. A new
 model has caught the nostalgia of
 the studios.

still when he had nothing to say.
 Even as a youngster he could ex-
 press himself on any subject that
 interested him but he was never
 one to talk for the sake of talk ing. He would rather listen to
 the other fellow if he had anything
 worth while to say and if not Her.
 bert always had something to think about and the same is true of MT
 Hoover today. Another fine trait
 in his character is gratitude. Now
 that he is famous and wealthy he
 does not forget those who De-
 friended him when he was home-
 less orphan boy"
 This statement of Mrs. Carran
 is proven by touching incident
 which just occurred in West Branch. MT. William Walker, the man whom Hoover himself credits with having first gotten him in- terested in geology, died at the Rage Of S7 cnHf aNfew days before
 the Republican Convention opened.
 He was buried in suit purchased
 with money sent him by Hoover. Source of His inspiration [ In a dusty old cabinet in the shabby little parlor in which some of. the funeral flowers still stood, repose the stones and fossils which
 first gave Herbert Hoover an idea |. of the. wonders of the earth's for
 nation and far lands to conquer. That old cabinet of specimens i'll the village doctors office had a | ful career which has now brought him close to the White House. He used to spend hours in front of it i, when Doy, reading the labels, studying the queer formations.
 Then he would go down to the Burlin ng o Il tracks which ran : through the town and hunt for
 mica and agates and crystal among the gravel
 1 And when Hoover returned to West Branch several years ago, he went to see Mr Walker. His observing eyes must have noted the failing strength of his old
 friend. the worn carpet, the faded wall paper. the worried look on
 Mrs. Walkers face. Anyway a bunch of crisp green bills found
 their. way into Dr. Walkers, hands after MT. Hoover had gone and
 more money followed from time to time, enough to ease the old doctors last days and make him
 proudly parade Main street in that
 new suit.
 Newt Butler, who runs the vil- 1 lage lunch room and who was once Hooyer's playmate, has rather ac- quired the reputation of being the ftown's had boy" because he made
 the assertion prior to the nomina- l ton that he once licked the Re- publican nominee for President" and that he, Butler, is Democrat i and that Hoover will have to
 change his politics if he wants 1 his old playmate's vote." However, Mrs. Carran voices the opinion of the 500 loyal members of the Hoo Ever club that Newt Butler just makes her tired" although she ad- mits he was a good boy and good scholar. too.

PARIS, July 2S.-Professional artist models are dying out as q class in this citadel of art. Never before have there been so many artists In Paris, so many schools and so many galleries, but models, particularly women, are a vanish- ing race.
 With few rare exceptions the professionals have been replaced by an anonymous crowd of out-of work stenographars, mannequins from dress-making establishments. chorus girls. and above all, by disinterested girl friends devoted 1 to the cause of art.
 Art is so much the fashion that painters and ,sculptors often find their choice of models limited only by the list of their aequaintances. Many American girls, Swell eIueat- ed, of good families. consider il an honor to pose in the studios of Montparnasse and Montmartre
 The old professional model, whose figure inspired so many diff ferent artists and so many differ ient works, can no longer compete with those who devote themselves to the studios for love of art nor with those who seek there tho easy and joyous existence which Bohemia is reputed to offer.
 Most of the celebrated figures among the old models have ceased to frequent their ancient haunts or are dead. But some are still attached to the world of paint and chisels. Colarossi has left h'7 name to art academy just back of the cafe du Dome. Jean Manemi. famous in his day, is now janitor at the Academy Delecluse.
 Today the Italians are replaced by Russians, Levantines, Cracks, negroes, and the model market transferred from the Carrefour Brea. in Montmartre, to the Grande Chaumiere. in Montparnas5e. Al the Beaux-Arts School the ex-colo- nels of the Russian Imperial Guard emigrated in France, furnish su- perb models of Appolos and Her

successful in winning three out Of
four candidates for delegates-at-
large, returns tabulated in the Wis

Senator Robert NJ La Toilette,
Progressive, led the field of candi-
dates by a comfortable margin, as
late returns showed the tide of SEN

III the Democratic bauoting the
so-called Callahan candidates,

Opening figures were: Wheat, u

The decline in all grains was due

tBy Thomson g McKinnonl

NEW YORK, April 5.-For some
while to come, the railroad indus
try will be the subject of much
important public discussion, Today
executive officers of the leading and
proposed eastern trunk lines will
meet to continue arbitration of GER
tain difficulties, and from this meet
ing some indication may be had as
to whether the Loree in CubuS will
prevail Or whether q great step to-
ward actual consolidation planning
is possible.
At Washington Congress will
presently discuss rail consolidation
and probably pass the Parker bill,
which is expected to accelerate mat
ters. Also current reports of earn
igs, carloadings and freight charges
will serve to capture and hold pub
lie interest. Candidly, we doubt if
there is another industry represent
ed on the exchange enjoying SO
many or as important fundamen-
tails, certainly the rails have not
responded marketwise to recent de-
velopments as have other industries,
but considering all factors, they are
quite likely to, for. heretofore, in
terest was centered on only few
stocks, which, by flamboyant &C
tivity, caused traders to lose all
thought of value for the spectacu-
lar, but with more normal stock
market conditions, a return to fun
damentals will occur and probably
center in the rails and other issues
