Instead of boldly announcing
that the Harlem problem"
could be eliminated overnight,
if Colored citizens we're given
equal work opportunities in
oheir own home towns-such
as they deserve, we find instead
the mournful complaint that
COlored keep pouring into this
one SPECIAL area "by the thous-
ands." All sensible solutions are
completely ignored.
Instead there is the helpless
complaint that wicked Har-
lem" may contaminate the rest
of New York City which appar-
emily is as pure as the lilly.
The argument might be COM
pletely opposite.
New York's Mayor LaGuardia
/ seems to be the only redeeming
character in the story. BY ap-
pointing Colored to positions on
merit as often as he can, La
Guardia challenges every mayor
in America and clearly proves
that separate democracy" can
not solve the problem.
However we still have hard
heads who still think other
wise.

facial features. The ones that I
am asked about most often are a
large nose and prominent jaw, q
small chin and a receding or pro-
truding forehead.
In the case OF a prominent nose
and jaw, shorten the space between
your ear and chin by eliminating
waves that slant in the same d.
rection as your chin. Waves should
slant up toward your forehead. To
further break the long line from the
top Of your forehead to the end of
your nose, bring your hair forward
in rolls or curls over the brow.
To make small chin look longer,
slant your waves down toward the
chin rather than up toward your
forehead. Never wear bangs or rolls
out over your brow. Comb your
hair back off your forehead and
leave it fiat. This will give your
chin more prominence.
A receding or protruding fore
head can be effectively concealed by
a downward swinging roll or bang
arrangement. II Ill III inc SUES VI
your face with soft rolls or curls.
Stay away from off-the-face styles.
Having studied your type and de-
cided on a style that suits your face,
go to a competent halrdresser and
discuss your problem with her. Your
hair may be too thick and unwieldy
for the hair-do you have in mind.
In this case it will have to be
thinned out and properly shaped.
In closing, just one final tip
Watch carefully how the operator
sets your hair. Notice particularly
the direction in which she winds
your curls so you will know how TO
comb it later. Work on your hair
a little every day-keep it brushed
and smoothly arranged. More COM
pliments from your friends will
soon prove to you that it's worth
the effort.

Harlem Picture

A loyal sports fan sent me a
copy of the Liberty magazine
story in question and we rec
ommend it to others for what
it's worth.
Written by Helen Worden and
Edward Doherty under an in
troductory caption, "A close up
of THE Worlds Most Wicked
City" the four page Liberty re-
velation I'm Darkest Harlem
presents just about the same
story as Richard Wrights Ma
tive Son" expose of race con-
ditionS in midwest Chicago. 1t is
merely a REPETITION of the story
of Colored People-barred from
other areas damned n d
crowded into one section. 1t is
the Self-same story of Colored
People being denied jobs and
forced to live on relief or worse.
1t is the self same story of
Race citizens voicing and acting
their dissatisfaction. There is
nothing in the Liberty story
that is not portrayed in Native

It's january Time to turn over
a new leaf. Resolve to be a lovelier,
better gr0omed you for 1912. Give
yourself a thorough check-up. Have
you been making the most of your
good points7 Have you been play
ing down your bad points? Let's
start with your hair, because the
one thing that men notice most
about a woman is her hair.
The right hair-do can do wonders
In correcting feature defects and
creating the illusion of a perfectly
balanced face.
For instance, If you have a broad,
square face, fSd hair style that
makes your face seem longer and
less wide. Bangs may be cute on
your slim-faced sister, but they're
not for you. Stay clear of a short
bob with curls punched over your
ears. Don't wear your hair parted
in the center or fiat on the top of
your head. All of these things only
tend to accentuate the broadness of
your face. The most flattering style
for you is a fairly long bob with
soft curls around your neck. This
will make your face appear longer.
Build out your top hair to CORE
spond with the width of your cheek
bones and train it into a forward
roll that dips slightly on the center
Of your forehead. This will break
the square, broad line at the top.
On the other hand, If your face is
long and narrow, your problem is
to affect halr-do that makes your
face seem shorter and wider. In
this case, the popular, high pompa-
dour styles are out. Don't go in for
severely sleek hair styles. For ex-
ample, a long, straight bob will
make your face seem longer and
narrower than it actually is. The
most becoming style for your type
is a low side part with the hair
combed nat across the top of your
head. This gives you horizontal
line that makes your forehead
seem broader. A fairly short bob
with curls punched out at the side
will give the lower part of your
face a wider look. Beware of plac-
ing your curls too far forward on
your face.
The right hair style can do much
to tone down other unattractlve

LIFT YOUR NACE
Worries, troubles and fatigue
tend to make the face sag or
fall down. At the close Of the
day just take a good look at
your face and you will see how
it tends to sag and droop. Now
there are ways Of overcoming
this and these are some OF
them. Take your middle fingers
Of both hands, place them at
the corners Of the mouth and
gently lift them several times.
Now lift your forehead and the
center of your temple. Lastly
smile and smile while you con-
jure up some pleasant thought.
These will tend to lift the face

KANSAS CITY, March 3l-The
reform administration which ousted
the old Pendergast machine from
the City Hall two years ago stakes
its existence against the machines s
bid for return to power today.
Supporters of the administration,
pointing to a clear majority polled
by Mayor John B. Gage and five of
the eight candidates for Council
seats on the Gage ticket in the pri-
maries, say they are confident the
voters will leave them in control of
the city's affairs for another two
years.
Three tickets were in the primary
field.
Mayor Gage, heading a coalition
of Democrats and Republicans, is
opposed in today's election by John
Linger, former president Of the Real
Estate Board, who has the backing
Of the old machine.
The machine now is guided by
James M. Pendergast, nephew Of
Tom Pendergast, one of the last of
the old-time political bosses. Terms
of a Federal Court parole prevent
Tom from taking any part in
