FIREMEN AND

STAY NEUTRAL
Slack Says Other Employees
of City Can Help Any
Political Party.

City employees, with exception Of
the police and fire department
members, may participate in the
fall campaign and support the can

Ertt Slack, Democrat. said today.
The mayor said there will be no
organized effort to throw city hall
support to any candidate or ticket.
Stacks edict provided police and
flremen shall not participate in any
way in the Nov. campaign.
The police and fire deparemnts
are not in politics" Slack said en-

There is no way to prohibit citi-
zens from exerting their influence
at the polls even if I wanted to-"
Slack said.

leaders have announced they will
support Reginald Sullivan, unani-

for mayor, but scores Of depart

roll, but are not in important posts.
I'll be devoting practically all my
time to being mayor between now
and Jan. 4, and I expect to pep
up things around here a little, too.
There are a number Of important
things to be closed up" Slack said.
"I will not take an active part
in the campaign, but may make a
speech or two for Sullivan, if it ap-

Latest fad sweeping indianapolis,
one known in the Philippines for
generations, is the yo-yo, shown
above, with Miss Madeline Jones,
demonstrating. A yo-yo is a
weighted disc-like spool, with
string about yard long which is
wound around its axle. To "yo,"
one holds the string and drops the
spool. The string unwinds and
then the momentum causes it to
rewind in the reverse direction, if
manipulated properly, causing the
spool to climb back up to the
hand. Simple-but just try to do
it! The sketch shows a closeup

Lightweight Wrap for Little Girl

for there is hardly Winter resort of
note but has its special schools and
classes for visiting children.
A type of lightweight wrap that has
met with favor with the little girls at
Southern resorts this season is made
of navy blue flannel in regulation yacht
ing style with brass buttons at the front
and on the sleeves.
Bingham frocks assume new i'm
portance in the wardrobes of little girls
now that mammals frocks are made of
Bingham, too And many of the best
looking of these little girl frocks are
made of checks used in combination
with plain-toned linen or chambray.
The same trim. fiat finish is used in
many of these little frocks with stitched
bands of the plain material on cuffs
and at the neckline. while the fullness
of skirts is often handled by means of
wide pleats. which are always easier to
replace in ironing in striped or checked
materials than when the material is
plain or figured. One very attractive
little-girl ensemble made for Southern
wear was of yellow and white checked
Bingham with black linen short jack
ct, lined with the checked Bingham.
A little matching chiffon or georgette
added to the material contained in a

is all that you will need to bring it up
to date. With the new material you

MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE
BY MOLLIE MERRICK.

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, February %
There are two kinds of movie stars, the
type who finish work and look for an
other job and the ones who complete a
picture and trek off to Florida for a
rest.
Estelle Taylor comes in the latter
category. She has been playing the
lead In a film opposite Lon CLANCY and,
the last reel made, she will see if the
palms are still doing sentinel duty at
Palm Beach.
Her HOLLYWOOD home, on Los FeliZ
boulevard. is in the most exclusive resi-
dence district. Cecil de Mile is a neigh
Dor.
De Mile is hard to work on talkie-
q modern picture of modern people in
a modern situation. The name, appro-
priately, is Dynamite"
De Mile has gone back to ladies whose
gowns make you gasp, and genties whose
antics make you gurgle. Biblical tales
and religious propaganda have not been
the type of thing to enable him to re-
main on the same footing on which the
society spectacle placed him.
There is a demand for nickel-in the
tlot machines. Local purveyors of such
furnishings discover suddenly that they
are being put to far different use than
they have enjoved of yore.
They may still ornament drug stores,
cigar counters and Tia Juana JOY pal
aces, but they have come into their own
in the Hollywood drawing room, where
they are making much whoopee for the
guests.

WINTERTIME
BY ID. c. PEATTTE.

Watching the river gulls at feeding
time, from the thin secluSion of
Potomac marsh, in its state of Winter
desolation, leads one to wonder how
Nature can have combined in one bird
so much that is airy, attractive and en-
dearing with that which is quarrelsome,
noisy and rapacious.
The herring gull, which is our COM
monest Winter species, is, taken the
world over, also one of the commonest
of birds. 1t frequents both shores of
the Atlantic, is found far inland on
lakes and rivers. I have seen the her
ring gull on Lake Superior no less than
on the Mediterranean. One need not
go SO far, however. Any time, from the
Key Bridge, you can see them falling
and rising, or padding about in the
still icy waters, apparently as COM
Portable as old cats by fire.
Good old Thomas Nuttall, our most
graceful writer on ornithology, could not
ind a single pleasant thing to say of
the herring gull AS he says, they are
resentful and clamorous when ap-
preached. screaming or barking with a
SOuno like akak kakak.' 1t is also true
that they are disposed to eat dead fish,
garbage and SeWage-not delightful
diet, any way you look at 1t, except that
as scavengers they deserve our graft
tude. If l mistake not, the gull is pro-
tected by law for this very reason. ANY,
way. they are not good to eat, the flesh
having rank taste.
And yet none of these plain facts of
science are quite the whole truth about
the gulls. Find me in all the world
wing more flashing, hues of plumage
more delicate and restful. more con-
tented bird-fashion of resting upon the
waves.
The gull at all times is, for me, the
essence of everything that is graceful
and beautiful in the feathered world.
Even the quarrelsome, hungry cries of
the hosts gathered together have q
magic in them, for all things in nature
need not be lovely in order to be beauti-
full.
believe that the crows call and the
buzzards shape and the gull's colors are
beautiful as truly as the catbird's song,
the swans form, the humming birds

The balky boy is abroad in the land.
No household that boasts of an Adde'S

or reason he sits back insthe traces and
refuses to bulge. Why? He feels that
way.
He makes loud speeches. It is not
sufficient for him to say. Il don't want
to wear those socks He must shout
aloud in his agony. You'll never get me
to wear those darn things"
That awakens sincere desire in every
breast to rise and smite him hip and
thigh. Who wants him to wear any
thing? Who cares? He can wear any
other kind of socks or no socks at all. if
he likes. to all of which he returns a
menacing below "Aw, you just wait

Answer.-0) The lifeless look in your
hair is doubtless due to lack of groom
ing You should brush and comb your
hair until 1t is glossy. Keep it free from
dust by regular shampooing and scalp
massage. Wash your brush and comb
twice week. Add few drops of am
monia in the water in which you rinse
the bristles of the brush and the comb
and your hairpins. do not think the
henna rinse will harm your hair.
Camomile tea or peroxide is used by
hairdressers to make brown hair turn
auburn. do not know whether there
is anything harmful in the particular
shampoo you are using. The pure
henna is not injurious. (2) The skin
bleach you are using is too strong and
will tend to make your skin yellow and
parched in appearance If used often.
Add two tablespoonfuls of glycerin and
enough rose water to make a pint of
liquid. The juice of half a lemon in a
pint of milk makes good, harmless
