A BREAK FOR BRUNETTES
Where are the blondes OF
yesteryear?" writes G. M. L.,
plaintively adding, II have just
returned from a world cruise
and am amazed to find that the
thousands Of platinum blondes
who were seen on every hand
or shall I say on every arm
before 7 went away, have al
most completely disappeared.
Whittier are the girls head
ing?'"
Well, I should say, Brother,
that most of them are heading
for the bottle marked Medium
Brown" on the upper shelf. OF
course, my guess may be wrong:
we may be facing a rash Of red
heads. But, in either case the
glamourous platinum blonde
has done a "fadeout"!
This, alas. can be traced
directly to the protests Of the
men who rebelled against the
monotony OF having to look at
thousands of women all as
exactly alike as row of lighted
street-lampS.
We overdid it, as we women
do every fashion. But the
main trouble was that the
chemical blonde was not con-
vincing. The brunette could
bleach her hair down to the
roots, but she couldn't blondine
her temperament.
And, next to a mop Of honey
colored hair, the most enviable
thing about a natural blonde
is her serene and placid tenn
permanent. That calm, cheerful
tranquility - that self-compla-
cent, easy-going sangfroid.
which nothing but a bomb or

DeplOres AntietGn1 Fete

Will some kind soul be good
enough and explain why mark
such a sad event as the Battle
of Antietam? Just why reopen
old wounds and glorify a ter
rible blunder? Would it not be
more appropriate if we gathered
together, prayed and wept for
the mistakes of our forbears,
for committing the first great
blunder in our history Gentry
into the World War was the
seconO.
Historians now generally ad-
NIT the Civil War could have
been avoided but for the stub,
borness on the part of tn
statesmen of that day, on both
sides. AS events shortly showed,
world opinion abolished slavery
throughout Christendom. The
Southern people should GER
tainly have been literally COM
pensated for property losses,
which if this had been done,
would have prevented that ter
rible national upheaval, which
retarded progress of the Union
for more than so years, and
from which the South has not
yet entirely recovered.
I hope and pray may our
country be ever awake and not
get caught in a third blunder.

years of the kind of life he wanted to lead Once made,
the bargain could not be broken The record stood We
told that Satan delivered those things he contracted
to deliver and in the end claimed Faust for his own.
Faust, in short, is the story of man who at times
deliberately chooses evil knowing it to be evil in the
eyes of men, and at other times aspires to the highest
good It is the old story of sin, punishment and in

over the Evil One.

against any pirate warship or plane
that attacks merchant shipping.
7 ET'S put that in palmer
~ language:
Great Britain and France de-
clare jointly to Germany and
Italy: Boys, the end Of our
patience is reached. We're sick
and tired of having you sink
our merchant ships and bomb
our vessels. We're fed up on
your loud mouths and we don't
like your general attitude. Up
to now we've told you before
hand what we were going to do.
From now on we're going to
do what we think fit to stop
this ship-sinking business. II
you don't like it, that's tough,
but-what are you doing about
it?"
NOV this action by Great
AZ Britain and France is in.
terpreted to the world, and
especially to the United States,
as action absolutely necessary
to maintain peace and prevent
war. Is this a true interpreta-
ton and a fair one? Let us
analyze it and see:
At the time the World War
broke out Great Britain owned
or controlled one-quarter Of the
entire inhabitable globe. That
controlling ershlp was
threatened by Germany and her
allies. That war, however, was
labeled "a war to end all wars"
After five years of slaughter
victorious Britain and her allies
imposed a treaty upon the de-
feated nations which, instead
Of helping them to their eco
nomic feet, bound them with
economic letters of iron. It
was a treaty which realists
warned at the time would sew
no fertile seeds Of rehabilitation
but only dragons teeth and Bit
ter woes.
The only tangible thing
Britain and her allies obtained
out of the World War were the
German colonies and few odd
pieces of land from her allies.
And when it came to division of
even these paltry spoils, Britain
and France hogged the lot and
italy, although promised her
share, received virtually moth
ing.
So actually the two latest EN-.
pires grew little Iatter and the
remainder grew a little thinner.
THEY found themselves in no
l. financial position to make
impressive retort when the die
tators of the disconnected ma
lions - horrible creatures Of
their own fashioning, remember
tore up treaties. played at
pirate" sank their ships,
seized slice of Africa, started
a war in Spain and lit a fire in
the Orient.
But what Britain and France
together did chant, over and
over again, after each one Of
these indignities was, you're
endangering the peace! You're
endangering the peace "
THE honest, unadorned truth
is that Britain and France
do not care who diSturbs the
peace so long as the disturber
does not annoy them. Neither
was exercised over Bolivia and
Paraguay's war. Nor over Man
churia. But Shanghai is too
close to home. Ethiopia is too
close to the Mediterranean
lifeline" Those were "distur-
Dances of the peace" The first
two were not-in Britain's eye.
Today you find Russia-Com-
munistic Russia - lined with
Britain against Germany-and
perhaps Italy, if Mussolini loses
his head. The cry from Britain
will be, Fight Fascism Non
Sence! It is not because Britain
cares for either Fascism or
Communism but because 1t is
economically and politically ad-
visable that she accept Com
munistic Russia as an ally to
