AS TO A "JIM-CROW Y'
'Nother "Brother" Thirsting for That Kind of a "Honkytonk"—The Cedar "Y" Assailed.
Cleveland, O., Feb. 11, '31.
Hon. Cary C. Smith,
Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O.
Dear Sir:—Appearing in your esteemed paper is an advertisement calling us to the attention that the Cedar Y. M. C. A. is an ideal home for young men of our city, presumably for colored men, as no one else hardly ever uses it. I feel that the Cedar "Y" is a disgrace to the city of Cleveland.
I understand that you was among the ones that opposed the setting up of a colored Y. M. C. A., and that in this way there was avoided the stigma of segregation. I personally feel, and think that the majority of the Negroes in Cleveland feel the shame of not about it; that we would be 100 per cent better off if we had a colored "Y".
In all of the cities of note and size in this country there are colored "Y"s. New York is at present planning on a $200,000 addition to be put in force soon.
Any one who will contenance such a contraption as the present building is not fit to associate with the decent people of this world. I shall never join or even contribute to help keep up such a fire trap in which even the windows are not kept clean.
Hoping that you will see fit to do something about the situation.
I remain yours truly.
Feb. 12, '31.
Mr. Gilbert L. Waytes,
E. 89th St. Cleveland, O.
Dear Sir: Your letter of recent
date, just received. While the Cedar
"Y" may be a "diagrase to the
city of Cleveland," as you write, it
would be infinitely more so if made
" Jim-ma-ra." As long as rep-
resentatives of all cities ences
in that section of the city have
a right to the use of the Cedar "Y",
whether they use it or not, there is
no violation of the "open door princi-
ple." There is no segregation, and
the "stigma" is absent. You are
very much mistaken—the majority
of "Negroes" in Cleveland do not
have a right to work and would
be 100 per cent worse off if
they had it. This is true wherever there
is a " Jim-crow" "Y."
There is no objection to those who so greatly desire such a thing moving to "cities of note", or otherwise, north or south, where there are jim-crow-air a thing it is allowed "crow-air" which predicts whites use to pry off the lld to all sorts of discrimination (segregation) in public schools and other public utilities. While the Cedar "Y" is not an "ideal home for young men" in your judgment, it is nearer that very thing for the majority of them in this community, without reference to group or race, they are now favored with in their own homes, and are not enough for any group or class of people who are continually whining for some other people to give or build them another.
My advice to you would be to locate in some southern city where your appetite for a "jim-crow" "Y" and segregation will be satisfied to the extent. Cleveland is hardly the place for advocates of "jim-crow" public or semi-public institutions of any kind. One thing sure and that is you are not "to the manor born." Sincerely Yours for the race. C. Smith
THAT NEW BRANCH LIBRARY.
The Location Still Objected to—The Librarian Refers to the Branch as "an Experiment"—Better Location Advocated.
The following letter was published in The Press and The News, local daily papers, the first of the week:
Cleveland, Feb. 13, '31.
Editors,
The Press, News and Plain Dealer,
The Cleveland, O.
Dear Sir:—The library board has leased two store rooms in an old building at 10112 Cedar Ave. for the purpose of establishing a branch library. This location is about three hundred yards from a branch library at the corner of E. 99th St. and Euclid Ave. The other branch library near it is located at the corner of E. 99th St. and Quinney Ave. more than a half-mile away from the location of the proposed new branch. The center of population to be served by a new branch is at E. 86th St. and Cedar Ave. a far better location than the other branch in the surroundings at E. 86th St. and Cedar Ave. are infinitely better than those about the location selected for the new branch. The close proximity of the location of the new branch at E. 101st St. and Cedar Ave. and the one at Euclid Ave. and E. 99th St. should have been and still ought to be considered, especially in view of the fact that the branch to be established at E. 101st St. and Cedar Ave. is said to be only temporary. The objection to it is not solely on the score of location but also because of the fact that the experiment there is no only unwise necessarily used to the tax payers of the community. The better location, at E. 86th St. and Cedar Ave., should have been decided upon in the beginning, if for no other reason than to save unnecess
sary expense for an "experiment"
misplaced.
Very truly yours,

OBITUARY.
The funeral services of Mrs. Mollie French DeBraun, well-known daughter Elk, were held at St. John's A. M. E. church, Monday noon, Revs. Sterrett, Lucas and Allen officiating. There were telegrams of condolence from various sections of the country. Grand daughter Lulu obey Janson of Alpha, past time, daughter Dalee Ella G. Berry of Ohio, Emma V. Kelly of Norfolk, Va., secretary of the grand temple, and Mrs. Grace Bryant of Detroit, member of the grand temple, were all present. Sidney B. Thompson, grand esquire, delivered the eulogy, representing the grand exalted ruler, J. Finley Wilson. Theodore E. Green, Jr., chief counsel, and Atty Selmo C. Glenon of Cuyahoga lodge, also eulogized the deceased, Mrs. Letha C. Fleming, daughter ruler of Glenara temple, presided. Lodges and temples in Akron, Lorain, Elyris, Oberlin, Zanesville, Youngtown, Warren, Dayton Columbus, Toledo and other cities sent representatives. In Woodland cemetery. This event was the history of Cleveland that all the grand tempie officers, Elks were ever in attendance upon a member's funeral. It was one of the most largely attended in recent years, Mrs. DeBraun was a past member of the board that governs Glenara temple and president of the state association at the time of her death. She had ornamented the office in the state of Ohio one, and was a member of other organizations.
Mrs. DeHraun, E. 80th St., died last week Thursday, after many months' illness. Diabetes. For years, she was very active in lodge work. A native of this city, she had a host of friends and acquaintances here, all of whom will sincerely mourn her passing. Her husband and near relatives have the sympathy of the community.
The G. E. R.'s Eulogy.
The G. E. Lunacy.
To the members of the Fraternity
of the College of Oblate.
in Cleveland and Ohio:
It is with profound regret that I extend my deepest sympathy to one of our women in manhood. I know of no woman in the entire jurisdiction who has achieved greater honors and done more for the upbuilding of womanhood than my deceased friend, Mollie F. DeBraun. Kids are inadequate to express to the community at large my sympathy for this dear woman. She was my friend from the beginning of this great order, and it pains me to pay homage to her demise. She was a friend to humanity. She was a living example for the girl and man, and her character and outstanding principles will live as long as time exists.
It gives great pleasure to make mention of her beautiful life. No sweeter spirit ever inhabited a tenement of clay than that which took its flight from Mollie DeBraun died. It has been the writer's privilege to intimately associate with her both in social and fraternal life. To do justice to her loving memory and to walk humbly was her daily and hourly endeavor. No memory remains of this gentle lovable woman but that which is sweet and precious. To those of us who knew her best her death will move from among us a wise counsellor, a friend, and a friendship that will be long cherished as a sacred and loving heritage. Ohio is a better state than it would have been because she has lived in it.
This is my homage to a loving, highly noble woman.
J. Finley Wilson, G. E. R.
Meditation for Every Day.
The past? Where is it? It has fled.
The future—it may never come.
Our friends departed with the dead;
Ourselves fast hastening to the
tomb.
What are earth's joys? The dews of morn;
Its pleasure oceans righting form.
Where is peace? In trials meekly noon.
Where is joy? In Heaven, the Christian's home.
CROSSWAITH TO DEBATE!

STABBED TO DEATH.
A Head-on Auto Crash Precipitates
a Small, Small, Small
-Small, Knife-Skill, Useful
Youngstown, O. — *Harold L. (Luke)*, age 38, youngest son of Atty, and Mrs. J. P. Wilson, was killed, early Sunday morning, as the result of a quarrel in Spring Common following a head-on collision.

Wilson and his party were en route home from a Valentine party at a friend's residence in Jackson's car. Mrs. Wilson and Chas. Clegg went to Jackson's car that took Wilson there. A witness claims Jackson struck first following a brief scuffle, after which Wilson fell to the ground. A small pen-knife, its blade about an inch and a half long, was found under Jackson's car. The coroner says he shaken in any stabbing so badly he took office as were Wilson's suit, coat, vest and trousers. Jackson denies doing the cutting.
INDICTED AGAIN!
Mayor W. H. Thompson Explains—Bishop Carey's Brother-in-Law Gets "14500 or More" — The "Personalization" — Very Interesting.
Chicago, Ill.—Bishop A. J. Carey of the A. M. E. Church, was one of several, the others being white, charged recently in a suit with "diverting" more than $100,000 of that city's money contributed to the 1927 Flood Relief Fund. The bishop is also under indictment (handed down in November 1928) on a large November job. It was disclosed that $5,500 was directly to Bishop Carey, $5000 at one time and $3,500 at another. The rest, $1,500 or more dollars, was given to Jas. Perry Davis, brother-in-law of the bishop, who received, according to the statement in the bill, seven payments, ranging from $150 to $220. Mayor Wm. Hale Thompson, also indicted, says that the money given the bishop was for other our people who suffered greatly in certain sections of the South since the "Red Cross" aid was furnished white people to the neglect of ours. He said the bishop distributed the $5,000 among our minister-leaders in various communities in sums ranging from $100 to or among ministers of any other city, and saw fit to select. Also, that the $2,500 check, given the bishop by him was a "personal transaction" between them.

His Husband
Cadiz, O. — The fatal shooting of Richard Crow, age 56, Morristown painter, as he was riding in his automobile near St. Clairsville, Aug. 28, 1930, is the basis of a $5,000 damage suit filed by his widow, Mrs. Grace Crow, against the Belmont Co. commissioners.

Our esteemed contemporary, The
Gary (Ind.) American, says:
“Prederick Douglass is probably
the greatest of American Negroes.”
No “probably” about it. He still
towers so far above all the other
so-called leading “Negroes” of the
past and present that there is no
comparison whatever. ‘The nearest
approach to the great Douglass was
the Hon, Join M. Langston, distin-
guished lawyer and stetesman, pos-
sibly the ablest (Douglass excepted)
and best educated “Negro” of the
time, But even the distinguished
scholar and educator, Langston, el
not Douglass! All the other Afro-
‘American “leaders” pale into insig-
nificance when compared with Fred-

EMPIRE SAVINGS & LOAN CO.
‘The Gazette calls the attention of
all of our people of the community
particularly to the financial state-
ment of the Empire Savings &
Loan Co., published elsewhere in
this paper. We want all to read it
carefully and to call the attention
of others in this community to it.
It was made after a state examiner
had gone carefully over all of the
books of the company and is being
published in compliance with a law
of the state, Therefore, this finan-
cial statement is the best kind of
assurance of the sound financial
standing and condition of the Em-
pire Savings & Loan Co. all of our
people of this community could pos-
sibly have, and ought to be all they
should want. It is an official state-
‘ment backed by the great state of
Ohio and should estop, once and for
all, the invidious criticism and
other harmfal talk so many have
indulged im too freely in the last
few months, the outgrowth of a
mistake of one of the company’s
employees and the recent suit of a
dissatisfied depositor who didn't
get just what he wanted when
he wanted it. This, too, is a
mistake which ‘was doubtless made
port of the Empire Savings & Loan
Co, and there will be absolutely no
ground in the future for invidious
comment, harmful talk "and ill-ad-
vised action. It will mean greater
achievement and more success for
the Empire Savings & Loan Co. and
our people of this community. And
this means ‘almost everything to
hundreds of stockholders, depositors
and patrons, all our people.
Bans “Birth of Nation.”
Detroit, Mich—Showing of the
motion picture, “The Birth (Rape)
‘of a Nation” at a large downtown
theater was stopped, Monday, by
Mayor Frank Murphy on complain:
of several organizations that the
picture was unfair in its treatment
of the race and American history.
Mayor Murphy first asked the thea-
ter management to refrain from
showing the picture and was as-
sured that objectionable sequences
would be deleted. New protests
came in, however, and the mayor
threatened to revoke the theater's
Mcense unless the picture was with-
drawn. That settled it!

DR.FRED PALMER'S Skin Whitener KEEPS YOUR COMPLEXION YOUTHFUL CHILDREN CRY FOR IT—
CHILDREN hate to take medicine as a rule, but every child loves the taste of Castoria. This pure vegetable preparation is just as good as it tastes, just as bland and just as harmless as the recipe reads.
When Baby's cry warns of colic, a few drops of Castoria has him soothed, asleep again in a jiffy. Nothing is more valuable in diarrhea. When coated tongue or bad breath tell of constipation, use its gentle aid to cleanse and regulate a child's bowels. In colds or children's diseases, you should use it to keep the system from clogging.
Castoria is sold in every drug store; the genuine always bears Chas. H. Fletcher's signature.
When you take Bayer Aspirin you are sure of two things. It's sure relief, and it's harmless. Those tablets with the Bayer cross do not hurt the heart. Take them whenever you suffer from:
Headaches Neuritis
Colds Neuralgia
Sore Throat Lumbago
Rheumatism Toothache
When your head aches—from any cause—when a cold has settled in your joints, or you feel those deep-down pains of rheumatism, sciatica, or lumbago, take Bayer Aspirin and get real relief. If the package says Bayer, it's genuine. And genuine Bayer Aspirin is safe.
Aspirin is the trade-mark of Bayer manufacture of monoaceticacidester of salicylicacid.

It was finally decided to bury the remains of Mrs. A. L. Boone, wife of the pastor of Shiloh Baptist church, in Lakeview cemetery, and not take them to her former home at Ft. Worth, Tex. They laid in state at the church, from Tuesday morning to Wednesday, 1 p. m., the time set for the funeral services. Thousands of persons viewed the body. Rev. L. K. Williams of Chicago, president of one of our two National Baptist conventions, was expected to preach the funeral sermon.

Atty, Green was elected a Justice of the Peace, serving for nine years.
While the economic depression remains it is absolutely necessary that we economize in every way we can and one of the best ways is to go to the Woodland-E. 55th Market for the things you need in the home. It means a cash saving for you to do so in addition to the fact that you get the best treatment there. They want your trade and are offering you the best inducements for the things you need to clean or better conducted market for the city. Supt. Curtice sees to this, and also that you get proper treatment from everybody. Spring will soon be here and business conditions will improve materially immediately. Go to the Woodland-E. 55th market!
Sunday afternoon's Douglass-Lincoln celebration of the South Side Republican Civic club at Quinn A. M. E. chapel proved exceptionally pleasing. Hon. Perry B. Jackson presided and introduced the speakers: Hon. Harry E. Davis, Hon. Harry H. Harry and Hon. Chuck Sacks, all of whom thorny interested the audience and were followed by an informal talk by Mr. Emmett Meade that was also splendidly received. The editor's talk on Frederick Douglass and the leadership our greatest representative stood or was most enthusiastically followed through on a result of his contrasting the leadership, years ago, of Douglass and Langston, and the selfish, ineffective and even harmful leadership of the last 15 or 20 years.

HAND-PAINTED AUTOGRAPHED CAR LATEST

Miss Helen Lee Eames Doherty, daughter of Henry L. Doherty, New York financier, has given the automobile industry a new thought in car decoration. She has purchased a dozen cars and will decorate and autograph them as gifts to her friends. She is shown here silhouetting a sports model cabriolet in designs to reflect the personality and tastes of the recipient.
IGNITION SYSTEM NEEDS ATTENTION
Cold Engines Are Stiff and Require Powerful Starting Effort.
During the winter months the car owner will be well advised to give more attention to the battery and the spark plugs than he may have done during the summer.
In the summer the engine started easier and the amount of lighting required was smaller.
Winter makes heavy demand on the battery and requires that the ignition system be in good working condition. Cold engines are stiff and require a powerful starting effort and correspondingly heavy discharge of current from the battery. Cars are also left standing for longer periods with the lights supplied by the battery.
Keep. Well Charged.
Keep Well Charged.
Naturally the battery must be kept in a wired holder for winter work it should always be kept on as full charge as conditions permit.
Sometimes cable terminals are badly corroded; spark plug points worn too far apart. This should be remedied without delay, as besides causing hard starting, it seriously lowers the efficiency of the battery.
The effect of frost on the battery should be taken into consideration. If a battery freezes the plates will be damaged. Fortunately a battery is likely to freeze only when it is in a discharged condition, and the solution has become weak. Periodical use should be made of a battery hydrometer to test the state of charge. If the acid is down to 1100 specific gravity 18 degrees Fahrenheit of frost will freeze it. At 1160 specific gravity 2 degrees above zero will cause freezing. At 1220 specific gravity the battery is practically safe and will not freeze at 30 below zero. A specific gravity of 1240 will withstand freezing at 50 below zero.
Mark for Acid Level.
In winter it is specially important to keep the acid level well above the tons of the plates.
The majority of car owners would be further well advised to make use of the help of the service stations if they would avoid the inconvenience of battery or ignition trouble in winter. There is little they can do themselves, and the service station is well equipped for the work.
Tighten Spring Clips
After Any Long Drive
Make a practice of tightening the spring clips after over 5,000 miles of driving. These are almost-bound to loosen under the continuous action of the road and springs, and when they become loose it is very easy to break a leaf in the spring. The car should be jacked up so that the weight is off the spring and the clip bots tightened firmly. The car will ride better and then, with the modern material, there is little chance of a broken spring.
Adjusting Spark Plugs
Is Made Simple Matter
In adjusting spark plug gaps never move the center wire as it may damage the insulator and cause the plug to become inoperative. Move the side wire only.
In today's high-compression engines the sparking gaps should be inspected from time to time and set precisely according to the instruction manual.
Unless the sparking gap of each plug is adjusted accurately, maximum performance cannot be attained.
Caring for Rusted Bumper
If the bumper of your machine are rusted or need touching up, make them smooth with a piece of steel wool and take a cloth dipped in aluminum paint and rub over the whole bumper. This fills in the rust spots and makes them look like new and they do not look painted or done over. This can be used for other nickelware also.
Driving cars over a wetted section of experimental roadway in London the other day, British highway engineers tried, unsuccessfully, to make the machines skid. The motorists' terror of skidding on wet streets had been eliminated from that stretch of road because it had been surfaced with a kind of asphalt found only in the island of Boeton in the Dutch East Indies. It had never been used commercially because it was found to be thickly mixed with great quantities of fossil dust, giving it a dull gritty surface.
Its application to roadways was brought about by accident. Samples of it had been sent to England for analysis and the chemists discovered that it would not take a polish, and they could not make it lose its gritty appearance. They then suggested that it be tried as a road surfacing material, and found that cars would not skid on it.

"A New Yorker plans to walk backward from New York to San Francisco." Thus he can hardly miss any kind-hearted motorist who is traveling in his direction.
"By a new 'process', 101 gallons of gasoline are obtained from 100 gallons of oil." We guess what happens is just that a gallon belonging to the previous customer is left in the hose.
Green is not used in the color scheme of automobiles in Persia and Arabia, as it is considered sacred, and dark red or maroon is reserved in Japan for members of the imperial family.
Changing to a more volatile fuel requires readjustment of the carburetor to a leaner mixture if the best results are to be obtained. But not always in the case of an anti-knock gasoline.
The Chicago Motor club, after a national survey, announces that 24 percent of the automobile drivers in the country are women. The club, of course, does not include back-seat drivers.
Nearly all car bodies are lacquered these days. Not so fenders. They are enameled. Accordingly, it is well to remember that gasoline never should be used in cleaning them. It dulls the finish.
Measuring the distance between front wheels when checking alignment calls for a measuring device that will not stretch. A fabric tape, piece of string or a light rope all are subject to stretching.
In buying inner tubes to be used on disk wheels, don't forget to specify the kind of wheel. The artillery wheel and the wire variety call for straight valve stems, the disk wheel for one that is curved in many cases.

VELVET BERET, SCARF, MUFF PLUS SHOES TO MATCH WITH SMART TWEED
THE WINTER COAT
IN CONSIDERING a new hat, the style-minded thing to do is to think in terms of shiny straws, shallow crowns and novel "push-back" brims. Crowns being shallow, the hat assumes an entirely different pose on the head from that of past seasons and brims take on decidedly new "lines." It would seem as if beauty doctors might count on doing a thriving business during the days to come since brows must be placid and wrinkles and frowns must be smoothed out of foreheads, in order to wear the new "push-back" brims becomingly. And when brims are not pushed back from the face why then they are apt to adopt tricorne contours which rise abruptly from the forehead, in fact, they turn up all around after the manner of the first two shapes in the group pictured. Each of the two emphasize quite the newest thing in brims. The first hat has a satin crown with a brim made of the popular cellophane straw banding.
To the right at the top the model shown is also of satin and braid, using banding for the brim and shiny shoe satin for the crown. The clever little hat to the left with its saucy brim deliberately pushed

SHOES TO MATCH
HERE we are, quite a few of us, up North—who for reasons best known to ourselves are not spending the winter on sandy beaches under southern sunny skies—arrived at the crucial hour when the winter coat becomes riksome and we feel the urge to lay it aside in favor of a costume suited to lingering furries of snow and cold, yet withal suggesting the lightsomeness of spring.
What to do, aye, that's the question of many and many a woman who finds herself placed in this dilemma during these temperamental midseason days which lead to spring. And just as most of us have arrived at a well-nigh point of despair, in steps Dame Fashion with a perfectly thrilling suggestion—a swanky tweed suit (interlined if the thermometer stays low) with which is worn a fetching accessory set, beret, scarf, muff and shoes made of velvet, as a pleasing change from the usual fur. See just such in the picture.
The trick is to relate the color of the velvet to the leading tone in the tweed—be sure to wet, per example, responding which predomil

back so as to reveal as much of the forehead as possible, is one of the very new perforated felts which reminds one that eyelet effects are in fashion whether for frocks, hats or the fabric which makes the blouse.
Centered to the right in the group is a very interesting type as it shows the Watteau influence of which we are destined to hear much this season. As you know these little hats which appeared in so many Watteau paintings were as apt to have their weeps turned up at the back as at the front or the side. In the model shown here, which, by the way, is of the new shiny rough straw which is "light as a feather", the brim is lifted off the face a la Watteau.
The next hat below to the left illustrates in no uncertain manner the effect of the new brims which are folded back off the brow, the brim widening decidedly at the back.
Even the new cloches show that tendency of width toward the back, their shallow crowns accenting the back-from-the forehead movement, as demonstrated by the concluding number in this group.

nates in the weave of a brown-and-beige tweed. A black velvet set worn with a smart black-and-white tweed bespakes the quintessence of chic. Look about and you will find just such alluring velvet ensembled accessories in the better shops. But what of the woman with nothing to speak of in the way of an allowance to lavish on vanities which cost "a pretty penny" and then some? If her hand hath the cunning to fashion smart accessories for herself out of this or that, then the beret, the scarf and the muff is hers for the making—merely a matter of a yard of velvet (perhaps less), plus reliable patterns.

"You Know Me, Al"
By Betty Baxter
BEAUTY is ageless! The fresh, spontaneous beauty of youth, the full blown loveliness of the matron, and the calm, serene charm of old age—all are equally admirable to the connoisseur. This, in brief, is the verdict of Barbara Gould, herself a beautiful young woman and one of America's foremost authorities on feminine charm. Two outstanding types to illustrate her point. Barbara Gould mentioned Miss Grace Birge, a New York society girl, and the Countess de Segur, better known as Cecile Sorel, France's most distinguished actress since Bernhardt. "Both possessed to a rare degree," said Miss Gould, "though more than two-score years mark the difference in their ages. There is nowhere more telling proof that there is no basis for the belief that a woman must 'show up' later than this New York deboutante in her twenties and the Parisian in her sixties.
"Cecile Sorel is, to my mind, the loveliest woman in Europe," Miss Gould said, "because her face has the calm serenity of a child with the dignity of a mature woman. It feels like a child with wrinkles, and retains a freshness, a nerve, that is found rarely in a Park Avenue debentate. There is only one explanation for this. Sorel has learned a lesson that many European women could profit by—that she can be a model, not a complicated daily ritual, but a simple treatment that soon becomes a habit."
Miss Gould points to Miss Grace Birge as exemplifying the reposeful beauty that promises well for the years to come. If a firm foundation of care is laid in the beginnings of a life, the loveliest of youth will slowly and
"HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT."
My ear is pained.
My soul is sick with every day's report
Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled.
There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart.
It does not feel for man; the natural bond
Of brotherhood is severed as the flax
That falls asunder at the touch of fire.
He finds his fellow guilty of a skin
Not colored like his own; and having power
To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey.
Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys:
'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot.

surely be transmuted into the graceful beauty of middle years and old age, according to Miss Gould.
The truth of Kiplinger's well-worn line that 'the Colonel's lady and Judy O'Dryan are sisters under the skin' has never been sounder than it is today, with democracy almost universal," said Miss Gould. "But though the women of the world may be sisters under the make-up, complexions have become more implemantable," he wrote his verses. And, though the Old World, by virtue of age, is still considered the cradle of beauty and the source of fashion, America is surpassing her older rival in numerous ways. Not the least of these is beauty treatments and scientific care of the face and figure."
Barbara Gould sailed recently for Paris where she attended the formal opening of the first of a series of salons where European women will be shown how the American woman mire is achieved. Similar salons have been opened in the other important capitals of Europe.
"I have noticed in my travels abroad," Miss Gould said, "that the European women are apt to be more concerned when they mire. Yet they adhere intensely the skins of American women."
Any woman can be lovely, Miss Gould believes, from the time she is first aware of herself at sixteen until she is a stately, white-haired woman. But she proper care of herself through the several distinct phases of her life.
