KENTUCKY COLONEL
LEARNS THE TRUTH
ZAP Feature Service1

FRANKFORT, KY, Dec. 3d.
A newly-appointed Kentucky
colonel, who supposed there was
a uniform for bearers of the
honorary title, wrote state Off
Gals that he was worried lest he
"get into difficulties" by wear
ing non-regulation garb.
So Assistant Attorney-General
William F. Neill, obliging with
an unofficial legal opinion" de-
scribed the evolution of apparel
and tastes of a Kentucky colonel
like this:
In the beginning =. "a brace
of duelling pistols, plug of
chewing tobacco, an overwhelm-
ing desire to hunt, fight, place a
bet or make love to some woman,
and a quart of bourbon whisky"
When prosperity came "a
broad-rimmed hat, a frock coat,
a pair of baggy trousers, shoe
string necktle, white goatee, d
pair of sideburns, veneer OF
culture, and a quart of bourbon
whisky"
After 'fthe war" "a pair OF
patched pants. floppy- brimmed
straw hat, a tobacco goatee, and
a quart of bourbon whisky"
Around the turn of this CEN
fury 80. mutton chop whiskers.

cloth prince albert suit, love Tor

Pirates Bat Out 5 to 3
Victory Over Tampa Today

Ray Rush's Pirates batted out
a 5-3 victory over Tampa this
morning at Trumbo Field before
a large crowd of enthusiastic
fans.
Tampa started scoring right off
the reel, connecting with four
safe clouts off Salinero in the
opening inning to put over three
runs The visitors held the locals
scoreless for the first two rounds
but in the third stanza Lopez
started off the fireworks for the
Pirates with a smashing single
to center. M. Acevedo followed
with a double to the same spot,
scoring Lopez. Salinero singled
to right, Al Acevedo beat out
short roller to the pitcher for an
infield hit and Hernandez poled
out a single to center and Al
Acevedo and Salinero tailed.
Pancho Salinero frightened up
after the first inning and held
the visiting team down without a
score. Better support would have
given the local club shut out
victory.
This is the first of a three
game series between Tampa and
Pirates. Blue Sox play Tampa
this afternoon at $3.50 at the
same field. Sunday the visiting
club will battle the Conchs and
Monday will face Griffen's All
Stars and Pirates in a double
header, first game scheduled to
start l o'clock.

For Skin Beauty
Look To Nature

Unless she has something wrong
with her skin, in which case spe-
cial treatments are in order. any
young girl should do as little as
possible to her face, applying
makeup snbtly and certainly never
going in for routines designed for
older eompleXions.
This is the advice of Agata Bor-
ri. young eoloratura soprano.
Let older women spend hours
having facials and before their
dressing tables. But let young
sters make the most of what they
have. And what they have Is nat
ufal good looks the variety that
comes from glowing health. Their
skin and muscles beneath are
firm.
why should they even con-
slider strong astringents, so-called
muscle oils and ultra rich night
creams? Certainly. proper cleans
ing agents, softenine cream. a
good hand lotion, a deodorant and
manicure implements ought to be
adequate
Cold Water Tones Skin
For cleansing the young skin,
Miss Borzi thinks soap and water
are best. That is, unless the conf
plexion is very dry. Then she adj
vises bland cleansing cream. She
believes that very cold water is a
wonderful toner and that it should
be slapped on in great quantities
at least twice day.
For the in-hetween skin that Is
too oily to be cleansed with cream,
yet too dry for soap and water,
the operate star suggests using
pure albolene. followed by a warm,
then cold water rinse.
Experts agree, of course, that
anyone. very young or older, ought
to use makeup to enhance rather
than change her natural colorine.
And that the more subtly it Is
applied. the more charming the
effect. Put your rouge where color
shows after you have been eXer-
cising violently Blend II carefully,
smoothing out harsh ridges and
edges. Lipstick should match.
incidentally, any young lady
under Is shouldn't even consider
eve makeup for daytime And her
youthful charm probably will be
more charming to others If she
doesn't wear her nails too long and
pointed or paint them too red.
