HE importance of the mouth as
an expression of personality has
been stressed through the ages.
Thus it is recorded that the inn
mortal Dante found exquisite delight
in the charming mouth of Beatrice.
Today discerning women pay much
attention to the attitude of the mouth.
The muscles of the face - particularly
around the mouth portray individu-
atty. revealing pampered child, a
happy young woman in love or, per-
haps, a petulant person. Remember
that you can control the muscles of the
mouth.
Here are few Don'ts: Don't pout.
Don't pucker up your lips. Don't
move them unnecessarily, nor talk out
of the side of your mouth. Don't bite
your lips, for this gets them out OF
shape and makes them peel. And don't
let them get chapped.
There are but few actual rules for
mouth beauty. OF first Importance is
it that, when they part, your lips
reveal clean. white teeth. No mouth is
beautiful unless the teeth and gums
look sweet and healthy.

men cast in the same mould, one still
fusing in the hot fires of youth, the
other annealed by living through
those fires Two proud men of blood -
and because of that there was a sudden
formal respect between them. The
Director stepped back and put his gun
on the desk top.
"You must disband The Death

are not loyal to you - or the country.
You must prescribe Captain General

He pulled a crumpled piece of the

before her.
Then he made one quick sidestep
and picked up the Directors gun.

and stepped out onto the balcony.
The Director watched him. without
moving. There was no interest in his
eyes, no admiration. no amusement.

well that they fool men with the

ARMSTRONG; SEE
TWO. TITLES NEAR
Agree Henry Needs Rest to
Get in Trim to Whip
Ross and Ambers.
BY DREW MIDDLETON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, March 29.-The
brothers Armstrong, Henry and Harry,
are in town with their own remedy
(pat. applied for) for clearing up the
somewhat scrambled situation in the
lightweight and welterweight classes.
It's simple when you listen to the
Armstrong;. Henry the Hammer will
knock of Barney Ross. the welter
king, in May, and then take over the
lightweight domain in the fall by
beating Lou Ambers, the incumbent.
A stiff program, but by no means
impossible.
The business at hand for Henry is
a meeting with Lew Feldman, veteran
New York lightweight, Wednesday
night. After that the featherweight
champion will take lay-off.
Has Been Toiling Hard.
"He needs one" says Brother Harry,
who rides herd on the Negro cham
pion. He has been fighting hard and
often for about IS months: 80 fights
since January /, 1887, and he's won
% of them by knockouts. So we fig

There were reports that Homicide

man out. Man, he near murdered
Baby Arizmendi out on the Coast, but
Arizmendi is tough and he didn't 60
down. No, he may be little tired,
but he isn't stale"
Tired Of Travelling.
"Ill tell you what I'm tired Of"
said the champion with some heat
'Livin' in trains and riding on buses
and eatin' hotel food all the time I
want to settle down for while Then
I'll be ready for Ross and Ambers"
The Armstrong; make no secret Of
the fact they are more worried over
Ambers than Ross.
Its like this" says Harry. Ross
is awful smart. but he's no youngster.
And he's orthodox. He stands up
there and fights. That's pie for Henry.
But this Ambers. he's cute. You never
know what he's going to do. We made
the Ross fight first because it means
more money, but don't get the idea
we're ducking Ambers. Well take
care Of him in his turn"
