“TOO HANDSOME"
Because ah* claimed her husband was “too handsome,*
Mrs. Jules Ascher asked Supreme Court Justice Byrne

of ths women could leave her "regular movie shiek"
clone and that he waa too weak to resist.
How often you hear a woman married to a handsome *
men advise some other women never to marry a hand-
some man—if she wonts to be happy. And yet, what
virtue-s-theretnbeig homeirt-ebvtousiy what Mrs, “
Ascher resented about her husband was not hie hand-

' Il is easier for a handiome man to attract woman .
than a homely one—though many of th* world’s most
famous heartbreakers have been postitively ugly—not
necessarily because of hie looks, bat because hie beau-
tiful features enable him to get by with so man an- i
pleasant traits of character that would be quite obvious

Th* selection of Mr. B. E Masters as president

Mr. Masters is an experienced school mas. having '

making up lb* ditference in taxation, ft has that
privilege. Operatfon of the school will cost ■ cer-
tain amount, whether in tuition or fresh taxes.
One striking statement in this regard has been
made by President Masters. "We never turned
nway a single student, in Paris," he said.
"If they didn't hove the money, Whe took their
notes; many of the boys end girls without funds
-were the zecipienta of schnlenhips bought by- civic-
dabs and other organisations. Amarillo need not

or girl ever sought to enter the Amarillo junior col-

any money."
That's a spirit that will make the Amarillo

WOMEN DO 8MOKE
Recently I saw young girt, with, her bobbed hair j
outside of an upstairs window, puffing away -al a ciga-
ret, being very careful to blow th* smoke outside. No
Sherlock Holmes was needed to know that she was
having a forbidden fag.
That very afternoon I came across this paragraph ia
"Ebb and Flow," by Frances, Countess at Warwick:
"I knew the kaiser’s sister well, Princena Charlotte
of Sexe Meiningen. How old-fashioned it sounds, but
she was one of the first women I ever knew who smok-
ed elgareta and she did thia constantly. I found her
one* at Buckingham Palace, sitting in her bedroom
smoking at on open window, and letting the emoke dis-
appear into the open tn case the queen should find out.
Queen Victoria had absolutely forbidden nmoking ia
any part of the palace end to hevo found a lady amok-
ing in her bedroom would doubtless have been horrify-
ing."
History dees repeat itself -and some girls winl_be

AN ANCIENT CONFLICT
Far1' back ia Biblical times, Palestine was a tur-
bulent lead, the scene of frequent violent eonflicta.
Tim recent tragedies there ar* pert of a tradition
dating back to the days of Joshua
The historic lineage of the fighting, however, does
not make the position of Grant Britain any less
ticklish. Warships and solders, speeding to the Hedy
Land, will enforce Britain’s decision that peace must
prevall in Palestine; and, considering the brutal
and barbaric nature of the rioting that began the
trouble, the whole world will hope that the British
art with a firm hand.
We ar* beginning to talk disarmament, but there
'as* still places which are not ready for it. Palestine,
ovidentiy, is one at them.
