MONOGRAPHS
MEN USE COSMETICS

If one judges by the ad-
vertising that appears in ma
tiopaA, publications, the men
of the nation are going in
for lotions, colognes, scent
ed soaps, creams and pow
derS.
In fact, the tendency of
the male to follow the fem
mine trend is expected to
produce a $40,000,000 mar
ket for cosmetics and per-
fumes designed for the mas
culine American.
Some of the advertising
is about as silly as that put
out by the perfume makers
to persuade women to ex-
pect miraculously romantic
results. Moreover, if the
growing sales are any indi-
cation, the men are begin
ming to fall for the stuff in
much the same way that the
women gear their personal
ity, pep and power to a GER
tain kind of product, in a
certain type of container.

REPORT ON INDIA

Just for a check-up upon

Twelve were killed and

ing in Bombay, where police
were forced to fire upon the
rioters twenty-five times in
thirty-six hours. In Calcut-
ia, Moslem workers, at
tempting to cross a picket

ed a riot. At Jarachi, sold

MISPLACED

It's an old story that comes
from Illinois where a man.
sitting in an automobile
stalled on the tracks, saw a
train approaching and told
his companion not to get
out, that the train would
stop.
The companion jumped
to safety but the man was
killed. He lost his life be-
cause he believed that an
other motorist had reported
to railroad officials that his
auto blocked the track. Rail
road officials declared that
they did not get such a mes
sage.
