FOR SURFACE PIMPLES
If your skin is lovely except
for a few small pilnples, you
can remove them very easily by
using this simple remedy. At
night, after cleansing your face,
just spread a thin coating of
dampened starch over it. This
will erase these small blemishes
quickly. Moreover, 1t is not In
furious to the mos tdelicate skin
Starch powder, or powdered
magnesia are both good for a
delicate face to use instead Of
face powder. Some faces can
stand any drastic treatment and
still remain lovely, but many
skins are too delicate to admit
of harsh treatments.

IN question and often thousands of dollars at stake
In his cool greewaed laboratory the top floor of the

looking at work of art When he is through he can tell

artist or retouched perhaps centuries later and what pig

Segregation: It's Vicious
Purpose

Segregation is the special
American means of branding
colored Americans as the in
feriors Of interiors in public
status.
when the white South
found itself confronted with
the federal status of equality
for colored people, the former
slaves-equality OF citizen
ship, Of freedom, of franchise
rights, backed by the nation
al government - it selected
the denial Of presence and Of
service in places opened for
public patronage as the one
great way to brand colored
people as having been a slave
race and make them forever
the scorn of civil society.
ut is a very effective meas
ure. Colored people are trail
tors to themselves to aid and
abet the idea by self-segrega-
ton"

The Foe Within

In our battle for justice we
must realize that there are
thousands OF traitors within
'1r ranks-men and women
who, having mortgaged their
own craven souls to our en-
emies, are willing and anx-
ious to sell out our group for
A mess of pottage. In myriads
Of instances they have al
ready done so. Many OF these
beings are like moles which
burrow beneath the surface,
and they have by their perm
icious activities placed the
entire structure Of our rights
in peril. The vilest, cruelest,
most brutal, craftiest, most
cold-blooded outspoken en-
envy is far less dangerous
than the vile, crafty, sinking,
snake-like burrowing foe

lever In the darkroom, Mr.
Young can move any part of the
painting in front Of the screen
and make preliminary exam
nation in a very short time. It
is his own invention, and as far
as he knows, the only one of It's
kind in the country.
An examination under mira
red rays which penetrate deeper
than the ultraviolet, confirmed
the evidence that the supposed
"crackle" was only surface
scratching.
Then a tiny fieck of the green
background paint was taken
from near the frame and an
other small sample from the
white head dress. The trail vas
getting warm, but more exact
information was needed. If the
painting was not a Renaissance
masterpiece, then when was 1t
painted? An analysis of the pig
ments used might give a clue,
Tor chemists have records of the
dates when each succeeding pig
ment was introduced.
Under chemical analysis the
green was shown to be a mix
ture of chrome yellow and PruS-
sian blue. The chrome yellow
was not used by painters until
Just before the beginning Of the
nineteenth century, and the
Prussian blue was introduced at
the beginning Of the eighteenth
century. The white proved to be
a zinc compound, unknown to
painters until 1850.
Examination under the spec
troscope confirmed the chem
lists findings. Berium and trac-
es of iron were found in the
spectrum lines Of the green pig
ment, again pointing to chrome
yellow. Photographs were taken
Of the spectrum lines as a perm
anent record OF the metals con-
tanned in the pigments, saving
a repetition Of the work. OBJ
viously then, the portrait could
not have been painted before
1850.
Mr.. Young likes the spectro-
scope because it is not only
quicker than a chemical analy-
sis, which takes time for ex-
periments, but is equally accur-
ate and gives a permanent rec
ord. This is the some instrument
which astronomers use in deter
mining the chemical comp
onents Of the sun, stars and
planets.
Mr.. Young even EXAMINED
the wood on which the portrait
was painted and found that it
was European oak This indicat-
ed that probably the painting
was done in Europe, not Amer
lea, although there is the pos
sibility that the wood was inn
ported from Europe for the pur-
pose, he added.
More exciting and rewardire
are searches which reveal a for
gotten masterpiece beneath a
later and less valuable painting

exist. Louis Cardinal boss pro-
badly never once saw Thomas
play. The "Showboat" has I'M
doubtedly been equal to any
fielding first basemen the Dodg-
ers ever had. He has been a ter
rifle hitter for years. At the
Denver Post 1888 Professional
Baseball Tournament there was
q colored team entry, the Cuidad
Trujillo nine from the Domini-
can Republic, led by sepia stars
including Satchel Paige. Watch
ing this game was Ray Doan,
top team scout for Rickey's St.
Louis Cards. Said Doan: mo
where will you see a fielding
star like Showboat Thomas"
Last week, as head of the
Dodgers, Branch Hickey forgot.
Yes, Showboat may be too old
for rookie at Brooklyn today,
chance to grab him 7 years ago
but Mr.. Hickey had a good
for the Cards. 1t is evident that
Rickkey doesn't know a good
ballplayer when he sees one.
BEAT BIG LEAGUES"
Leo "The Lip" Durocher pro-
vided some interesting sarcasm
last week when he implied that
McDuffey and Thomas were pro-
ducts of a non-profesSional lea
que. In a sense, Leo was smear
ing colored pro circuits. I recall
the day when Leo andother ma
jor leaguers were "hard put" to
hold their own against colored
league players. Even Dizzy and
Daffey Dean conceded that the
colored lads were better than
some in the majors. Durocher
is probably sore because he never
could hit Paige. Teams like the
Pittsburgh Crawords, Kansas
City Monarchs, Birmingham
Black Barons and Homestead
Grays could lick the pants Oft
the Dodgers a few years ago. In
f1elders like Willie Wells, Ray
cambridge, Marcelle, Jud Wilson,
played more baseball than Duro-
cher in his widest dreams. Leo
may put on the dog" to fool a
few kids, but he isn't fooling the
sportswriters. I recall when
folks were even asking if the
Dodgers were still in the league.
E-PECT HARD FIGHT
Colored candidates, must, Of
course, expect initial rebuffs in
their pioneering endeavors to
smash the bar. The hasty judg-
ment Of the Brooklyn club last
week should not be taken too
seriously. There are sixteen
clubs in the Major Leagues and
many others beside the Dodgers
are hoping t oproduce a colored
star. Some few years ago Pitts
