COLORFUL GIRLS.
BY BESS MURPHY
.. •
Human bein*s are ever bent on
centering the blame for discrepancies
on somethin* or somebody, and now
artists are being censured for tho
rou*» worn by the *irls and women
of today, "it Is the magaaine cov-
ert, of the modern magazine* which
»r» leading the feminine world into
auch unbecoming war painting hab-
ita** say* a dispatch. KJIrls are try-
in* to make their check* and tips as
vivid as those portrayed by artists,
and the result is they'are ridiculously
colorful." ’ f:
And the argument I# that glrt» bf
{K" present generation do not need to
accentuate their colorfulness because
they have an abundance of it without
doing so. The fact of the matter is,
the general public seems to think the
modern *irl is all color—personality,
activities, speech, dress and manners.
And it fails to see why this vividness
should be aggravated by applying red
pigment to the cheeks and lips. As

ht Dr. Webb's address, had reached
Washington and it was desired to
h*v* firsthand information
thereto. What Mr, Morris told his
superior officer is of interest tn view
cf the Antt-Baloon League superin-
tendent** indictment of Texas offi-
ctets and newspapers, and it .follows;
"With reference to steps taken
to co-operate with the various
kw enforcement agencies, I wish,
lo say that I have been in con-
ferences with the United Bute*
attorneys, governor, a d j u t a n't
general, ranger captains, shertfto
and city chiefs of police. These
gentlemen have ijU agreed to co-
operate In every possible way
with me and my federal agents
In the enforcement of the eight-
eenth amendment.
"As to the attitude of the press
I find that they are eager and
anxious for all item* that wit! en-
lighten our citizens with refer-
ence to laws and regulations
governing the eighteenth amend-
ment. They arc endeavoring to
Instruct everyone as to Just what
this kw means and very prompt-
ly correct all erroneous state-
ments that are too liable to mis-
tfraAraC . SPI ... some
deep-thinking and righteous soul has
rektlvo Mea. into print, with the
result that artists are receiving the
declamatory end of the matter, and
! tlu* ,,*ar Klr>* are going scott free.
However, there may be “rnnhod in
this madness," a* the public has un-
doubtedly learned by now that girls
wilt talk aa they please, walk as they
please, dress aa they please, dance as
they please and rouge as they please,
| regardless of what the public says
about them. And this may be a way
of allowing the objectors to make a
graceful ezit and resign forever their
Job* of critics
It will do very little good for the
public to take a hand in such mat-
ters, anyway, as it is evident that it
takes individual reform to effect the
needed changes, Then, besides, it is
just as well to let the adult world
continue on Us course in such mat-
ter*, as it usually nourishes wril-de-

fined ideas on the subject, and the
bent Twig has already developed Into
the twisted tree. It remains to be
seen then that tt$e place to use re-
form measures k kith the "twig.” and
one’s own community is usually a fK
subject for such regeneration. Take
our own city, for imrtahee. Onlf this
week three girls under 12 years of
age, and four girls under l(, were
noticed on Main street with their faces
heavily coated with powder and rouge.
The youngest girts were hardly old
enough to talk plain, and ,yet
had their young Ups and
smeared with vermilion, a heavy pow
dcr on their faces, and their eye-
brow* arched. And naturally. In the
light of these decorations, they moved
with a deplorable air of sophistica-
tion. The older girts, were equally
as out of place with their “war point ”
The natural beauty of early girlhood
was distorted if not entirely hidden
by the heavy cosmetics, and what
girlish grace they possessed was ob-
scured by such display

It is with these girls that the
formers should deal, though it is but
obvious that it Is the mothers who
must be reached and warned of rhe
danger Tn allowing their little girl#
to enteetain* such sophistry,
children will be old women at 20 and
not dealing with the loss of the nat-
ural beauty of their skin, they will
be old and poor in experience :ind
spirit, and rich in nothing. We can
rot concern ourselves unduly with the
njpult world; its members have w«ll-
dtveloped minds of their own and they
can scarcely be turned from their nat-
ural courses, but a regeneration ran
certainly be effected if taken in time
in the adolescent and impressioitable
year# of the child, and it should be
done. Because “war paint" is only
a small matter compared with what
it actually aighlfles on children. ( Its
signification is the loss of all the beau-
tiful and genuine sweetness which
mokes early girlhood the loveliest

An Bestern lawyer, reviewing his

'the other day that he had partici-
pated in the i rials of 1#5 capital cases,

not a single Instance had the defend-

To many It whi occur at once that
