GOOD WILL TOWARD MEN

The Kellogg Peace Pact for the re-
nunciation of war went into effect
Wednesday, July "a and almost inn
mediately President Hoover called a
halt to the navy extension program
and war ship building which was to
have started this fall. pending further
agreement with Great Britain in re-
gard to naval competition.
The existence of the treaty has had
a material effect so far on the dispute
between China and Russia. Much
good can be derived from application
of this treaty and if all the important
nations of the world can be induced
TO join. and already there have been
favorable results toward this end then
the smaller nations should eventually
follow suit
With the prospect of war wiped
from the slate of world endeavor.
much more time for education and
general uplifting of the human race
may be had. With the billions of dol
lars expended in the building and
maintenance of navies, placed to other
alleviated and the inhabitants of the
earth will be combined in a circle of
friendship never before felt
If all this can be accomplished by
the kellogg treaty, then it will be a
wonderful thing. Nations can then
turn their thoughts TO commercial
trade and scientific research and have
no worry as to the moral future of
their people. 1t should be tried.

IsadOra Duncan Girls
Dance Here in January

With Shubert and Chopin
music as their background to the
melodies of marches, waltzes,
mazurakas and polonaises,
that wonderful group of Rus
sian girls-the Isadora Duncan
DancerS-will doubt less stir
Washington to the same excep-
tional enthusiasm with which
they were greeted in New York
during five weeks last season
and again this autumn.
To dancers, the music Of
these two, with the incompar-
able Schumann, form a trio that
has provided a diversity of
emotional expression that would
be difficult to duplicate. And
the ISadora Duncan Dancers,
a dozen vital Russian girls, have
put new life into these dances,
which will be a part of the pro-
grams presented here on Janu-
airy 8 and II, with two evening
performances and a matinee
for Saturday. The T. Arthur
Smith concert bureau is to be
congratulated for securing these
dancers. who have created a
furore in every city they have
visited. Seats are now on sale

The Apaches, newly crowned
District independent football

laurels to their 1929 season by
taking the measure of the Irving
tons in the game tomorrow after
noon at 2:30 o'clock in Baltimore.
Coach Bill Lytell has drilled
his charges at a fast clip this

to the Baltimoreans. Irvington
was beaten by the Mohawks here
several weeks ago and it is essen.
tial that the Apaches play up

One point that has given Coach
Lytell concern is the possible let

She Finds Hollywood
Beats Paris
For STYLES

Paris, noted for its bizarre
styles, Is conservative alongside
Hollywood, which sets the styles
for American girls now.
This is the opinion Of Irene
Bordoni, famous star, who is
now to be seen and heard in
her first talking picture, PARIS"
now at Crandall'S Metropolitan.
Miss Bordoni contends that
styles seen on Hollywood boule-
wards put those Of Paris to
shame.
For instance, she cited sum-
mer fadS as follows:
Bare backs
Absence of hose and socks.
Freakish jewelry, including
bracelets weighing several
pounds. Hats that flare in the
front and back.
Dogs that are trimmed in
fancy patterns.
And in Hollywood. she even
found automobiles painted to
match the compilations OF the
stars!
Paris, she should see Am.
erica and gasp" says Miss
Bordoni.

Too Many Mud Packs
Cure Pretty Rita Flynn

If Rita Flynn. the pretty
young actress who plays with
Alice White in THE Girl From
Woolworth'S," the First National
picture, now at the Earle Thea
ter, never has another mud
pack on her face, it will suit
her.
Miss Flynn took a course of
beauty treatments one day
while the picture was being
made. Not that she needs
beauty treatments, but the script
called for a scene where Miss
Flynn appears with a mud pack
on her face.
It was necessary to apply
the mud pack 10 times in a
single day, and. according to
Miss Flynn, that is just, about
nine or ten times too many.
She survived the ordeal, but
she is through with mud packs
from now on.
