The girl who applies cosmetics in haphazard manner, smearing rouge on chin, neck and too far down on the cheeks, allowing pow der to remain on eyelashes and brows. really makes a worse ap- pearance than one who goes around with a shiny face that isn't made up at all. At least the un- powdered woman looks natural and that in itself Is commendable. As I have said many times be- fore, you should use cosmetics to improve your natural beauty--not to change 1t. TO put rouge on a spot where normal color never would show no matter how much you exercised makes you look gro- tesque. To leave great beads of mascaha on eyelashes spells the effect of the loveliest eyes.

NEW YORK, Sept. 80 CU.s0
Officials Of many major airlineS
operating on tranScontinental
routes have fallen in step with
the general demand that the haz
ards of high tension wires be re
moved from the vicinity Of air
ports.
C. r. Smith, president Of Ameri
can Airlines, Inc, with stops at
81 cities all over the country
voiced the opinion Of airline exc
cutives today.
Mr.. Smith declared:
r COMPARED TO HURDLES
eff we had hurdles to cross
on each Of the principal high
ways Of America, public opinion
would soon demand their re-
mOval In the interests Of public
Saftey. High tension lines sur
rounding too many Of our Splen-
did airports are the hurdles Of
the air.
"The fatal accidents in Cali
ROrnia recently definitely show
the need for q concerted drive
to eliminate the hazards around
existing airpOrtS and to prevent
their construction in the vicinity
Of new airpOrtS.
at hardly seems logical that
q community would expend vast
sums of money in the develop
ment Of modern airport facili-
ties and then permit the pres
ence Of high tension lines to
impose an unnecessary hazard
upon the public using these
facilities.

The functions of the executive department and
of the legislative department are made entirely dis
tinct and Independent by the express provisions of
the supreme law of the land
Two weeks have passed since the President of
the United States assumed the right, openly and
almost contemptuously, to tell the people what the
future course of Congress would be-
He did it in the same manner that he might
report what the future of subordlnates sub
iect to his appointment might be.
TO THE EVERLASTING SHAME OF THE
UNITED STATES SENATE AND THE HOUSE
OF REPRESENTATIVES, NOT ONE WORD OF
PROTEST HAS BEEN UTTERED BY THE
MEMBERS OF EITHER BODY.
There was time when, regardless of the polti-
cal consequences the membership of the United
States Senate and of the House of Representatives
would have aroused the country to indignant pro-
test. In the horse-and-buggy days even the Great
Washington, jefferson, or the sainted Lincoln
would have been called to account instantly. It
would seem, however, that recently we have fallen
upon the mush-and-messy days.
Of course, the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fiji
teenth amendments to the Constitution completed
the liberation of human beings on the American
Continent, and destroyed the idea Of slavery for
ever.
The remaining six amendments of the Constitu-
