You may be one of millions who has wasted time, hope, money on "tonics" and treatments . . . Now Charles Nessler, inventor of the permanent wave, leading hair scientist, author of "Story of Hair", makes a simple but revolutionary discovery that
In the past, tonics and treatments tried to stop hair from falling. That is as useless as to try to stop an animal from shedding! What you must do is make your scalp replace the hair that falls—in short, complete the hair growing cycle. It is on that scientific principle

The
ROUNDER
About seven months ago, "Buddy" Appling was shot in the肝 by the detective Allen of the city's police force, it is said. A damage suit was instituted against him, Atty. Clayborne George, a city civil service commissioner, represented himself in the case. Tuesday. Seems strange that anyone would employ an attorney who is a city official to represent them in a suit against the city.
A special trip by a city truck and four city employees to collect ashes at Mrs. Charlotte E. Williams', 2109 E. 93d St., Councilman Leroy Bundy's secretary, caused more or less feeling in that immediate vicinity, and a Director Ettie said he didn't "like the looks of their going into the basement after the ashes in violation of the regulations." Also that he would "require a full report from the employees." Several of the neighbors, who saw the truck stop and remove the ashes from the Williams' basement, voiced strong protests because they had read the matter of the collection of ashes for a long time. They have The Rounder's heartfelt sympathy.
According to a local publication, Mr. C. Bryant of Cedar Ave, and E. 85th St., is prevented from opening a driveway to his gasoline station from E. 85th St. and Cedar Ave. as a result of objections raised by Rev. D. O. Walker, pastor of St. James A. M. E. church. The driveway is essential to the successful operation of Mr. Bryant's gasoline station. It would in no way harm or militate against the church, and it is the fact, Mr. Bryant's station is one hundred feet away from the church while there is a gasoline station in Cedar Ave. directly opposite the church. The building commission o. the city, we understand, stands ready to O. K. the opening of the driveway when St. James' pastor withdraws his objection, something he ought to do as a matter of fairness to a member of the race who is undertaking to promote a legitimate business. The Rounder submits the following objection to the filing and was brot to The Gazette office, Tuesday, for publication:
"What is religion? We answer for you. It is a system of faith and worship, plious practice. It is not religion 'to build a fence' to keep people from making an honest living at a gasoline station, when two other residences are between the station and the church."—W. R. B.
"SLUM CLEARANCE" HIT!
Louisville, Ky.—The New Deal lost a round in Federal Court here, Monday, with the ruling by Judge Charles L. Dawson that the government lacks power to condemn private property for a slum clearance project.
The ruling was the second adverse one handed down by Judge Dawson on New Deal legislation. Previously, the N.Y. Code did not apply to intrastate business. Judge Dawson said there was no question of the government's right to condemn land for public use. Low cost housing, he said, is not a public use in the sense that land is sought for buildings for governmental agencies.
"Surely it is not a governmental function to construct buildings in a state for a purpose of selling or leasing them to private citizens for occupancy as homes," he remarked.

To Restore Pay to City Employees—Mayor Davis "Making Good per cent"
Twenty-five per cent pay reductions given city employees in 1932 were ended late Monday. Restoration of the former rate of pay for every salaried employee of the municipal government will be made retroactive to Jan. 1. This was decided, Monday afternoon, by the city administration and the City Council finance commit-

tee. In a letter Mayor Harry L. Davis sent to the Council, Monday night, he virtually committed the administration to the idea of a deficiency
"In determining the amount of a bond issue, we should not evade the responsibility imposed by the President's plea for higher wages," Davis said. "For Cleveland this brings the urgent duty to wipe out salary fraud and should do more. Any bond issue should be large enough for this purpose."
NOT WANTED! WHY?
Allen, an Important Lindbergh Trial Witness, unaccounted for in the Hauptmann Case.
New York City (CNA)—Wm. Allen, an important witness in the trial of Bruno Hauptmann for the murder of the Lindbergh baby, is still unaccounted for, by either the defense or the prosecution. Allen found the body of boy of Alcestus Lindbergh Jr., but this was never even acknowledged by Col. Lindbergh. Altho a reward was offered for the discovery of the baby, dead or alive, Allen has never received a cent. The trial of Hauptmann began over a week ago, neither side has indicated that Allen is to be called.

WHAT THE SOUTH IS DOING.
THRU THE ROOSEVELT ADMINISTRATION AND ITS FERA, AN OUTRAGE.
"Jim Crow" Administration of Relief in Los Angeles, California, and Other Cities in This Section of the Country.
Los Angeles, Calif. (CNA)—Colored social workers in the employ of the federal government are forbidden to pay professional calls on white applicants for relief wages while white applicants have files composed entirely of colored cases. "Mixing of races" at relief stores, to which the unemployed go for their supplies, is forbidden by official order. On one relief project, a city affair, colored and white workers, employed in the same camp, were required to use separate dining tables, separate bathrooms, separate washrooms, separate toilets and a sign was posted forbidding mixed gambling! The camp doctor was an Afro-American who was forced to submit to the same kind of "jim-crow." Administrative positions invariably go to whites.
Relief Workers Insulted.
Colored relief workers are abused on one project and called vile and insulting names by their foremen. They show a high rate of discharge for "inefficiency" although it is common knowledge that they are discriminated against because of their color.
Colored and white women working on a sewing project were separated, the forelady telling the "Americans" to go to one room and the "women" to another. All of these things are more about which I will write in this series of articles have happened and are happening, not in a southern or a border state, but in Los Angeles, California, where prejudice is supposed to be at a minimum and where all citizen rights are supposedly protected by law.
The present relief set-up in Los Angeles is the Los Angeles County Relief Administration—the LACRA for short. LACRA is a FEDERAL bureau which secures its funds from the FERA and is in charge of Ellis O. Braught, a former Ohio college professor, touted far and wide as "a humanitarian liberal." Braught and the LACRA came into the picture only a few months ago following the attack but not the one real breakup of the war after five years of crisis. Los Angeles County retains control over so-called "social service" cases and LACRA has charge only of those cases in which, to use the parlance of social work, unemployment is the problem.
"Jim-Crow" Accounting.
For the purposes of relief administration, Los Angeles is divided up into a number of districts. Each of these districts has a relief office under the direction of a supervisor, an administrator, and a member of social case-workers. Very obviously, the district boundaries were drawn in order to place as many colored people as possible in one district, the Vernon district. One other district, the Adams district, also contains a number and there are a few in three other districts. The district set-up was inherited by the LACRA from a previous relief organization, the SERA. It also fell heir to the tradition that where colored people are the applicants, colored case-workers are the applicants, colored case-workers setting up the districts, colored case-workers were given a certain geographical area in which to work. There was a fly in the ointment. The colored ghetto is not very strict, and consequently various colored case-workers found a few white applicants in their files. That was soon remedied. About Dec. 1, 1934, an order was issued requiring colored social workers to transfer all white cases out of their files. The order raised a storm of protect. Plainly it branded colored social workers as inferiors in the eyes of whites. But the order didn't work both ways. White social workers could still visit colored applicants.
When the Los Angeles County Relief Administration decided to forbid colored case-workers from paying professional visits to white applicants for relief, its work was expedited by the fact that white and colored cases had already been classified separately. Cases of white applicants are gathered together and branded "white files." Colored applications are placed in separate files and called "black files." No colored worker can work on a "white file." That would be "social equality." But white case-workers can and do take "black files" whenever it suits the whim of an assistant supervisor to an assistant in the so-called Hope district has 24 "black files," composed entirely of colored applications.
"Jim-Crow" Pure and Simple.
But the Hope district employees only four colored case-workers. The other twenty "black files" are han-

dled by white workers. Only in the Vernon district is there anything like an adequate division of work with colored case-workers handling nearly all of the colored applications. This wholesale "jim-crow" setup was not occasioned by "racial trouble" of any sort. Many of the white unemployed liked their colored visitors and were on excellent terms with them. On the other hand colored persons who happen to have white visitors have made no complaints on a racial basis. The complete absence of trouble of any sort is proof enough that those in charge deliberately conceived the policy to suit their own conceived (southern) notions about the mixture and equality of races.
"YOUR EYES,"
Newest Publication of the Sight Saving Council of Cleveland, Will Make Its Appearance, Next Week, in the Promotion of Better Vision for Every Citizen of Cleveland.
No inflammation of the eye, however slight, should ever be neglected. In babies, inflammation of the eyes may cause blindness in a very few days unless treated by a physician experienced with the disease. Older children with watery and inflamed eyes may lose good eyesight unless skillfully and steadily treated. People in mildlife, whose vision begins to suffer in other eyes, may have some serious systemic disease and become needlessly blind. They should put themselves in the hands of competent physicians without loss of time.
Poor lighting and bad position in reading strain the eyes. When reading or writing or doing any close work, have as good a light as you can get. Light that shines into the eyes, or that reflects from a table or desk and dazzles the eyes, is harming the light. The light should come over the left shoulder for right-handed people; over the right shoulder for left-handed people. Then it does not make troublesome shadows. Children often hold their books needlessly close to the eyes and if this habit continues, eyestrain may result. Normal eyes can be harmed by misuse under unfavorable conditions. The booklet will be distributed with children who have been trained at the offices of the Sight Saving Council, 1826 Midland Bldg. MAIN 7778
PLIGHT OF THE NEGRO
DIRT-FARMER IN SOUTH
Washington, D. C.—The following letter indicates in concrete form the plight of the ordinary "Negro" dirtfarmer in the South, and the heavy handicap under which he labors:
Warsaw, N. C., Nov. 17, '34.
Prof. Kelly Miller,
Howard University,
Washington, D. C.
My dear Professor:—This is what the Roosevelt "New Deal" has done for me.
By chance I was born down here in the woods where we have to grow corn, cotton for a living, and not get a living from the Government. So I don't have to praise some one man for what I know he has not done.
I have a little plot of five acres of land and rent ten acres more. This year, I had to buy a horse. That one died in May and I had to buy another which put me in debt $125 for horsehose. I was some $40 behind for taxes. The "New Deal" allowed me to plant only one and three-quarter acres of cotton and you know when you were plowing for your father. It is not much better now, and we did not get the fifteen or twenty cents a pound promised us. They say we must plant less cotton, next year. All who grew tobacco got out fine but some of us could not grow tobacco. Hundreds of our country people have been given work helping to make our records, but not one of them had a black face. A few black saw-mill hands get twenty to four cents more a day for three or four hours each day. Others have to pay fifteen to nineteen cents a pound for fat back meat and proportionate prices for about all other things.
Now, this is the way we country Negroes see the Roosevelt "New Deal." We would not object to seeing the "N. D." in the burning place, if we were on the outside. Yours, W. H. Best.

According to the daily press, gov-

Prof. Kelly Miller’s reply to the
letter from his long-time friend, W.
H. Best of Warsaw, N. C., which will
be found elsewhere in this paper, is
so clearly an effort to toady to the
Roosevelt administration, with a
view to helping himself into a feder-
al job, that we are refusing it pub-
Heation with the Best letter.

The Jacksonville, Fla. “slum clear-
ance” project is developing just as
has that of the Cedar-Central area,
this eity—driving out the old resi-
dents and making no, arrangements
whatever for them ‘elsewhere. Both
projects deserve to be termed “popu-

clearance.”

THAT STATE CONFERENCE.
What has become of Mr. C. E.
Dickinson's celebrated Ohio State
Conference of N. A. A. C. P. branch-
es? The last we heard of him, he
was trying to start an unwarranted
campaign against the candidacy of
Attorney General John W. Bricker,
without the authority of the mem-
bership of the N. A. A. C. P. in Ohio
and apparently with no justifiable
excuse. If Mr. Dickinson runs true
to form, he will not be heard from
until shortly before the next annual
meeting in September or October.
‘Then he will muster his loyal hench-
men in a battle against imaginary
enemies. That will win him a re-
election and the state conference will
proceed as usual to do nothing.

ROOSEVELT’S MESSAGE.
President Roosevelt's message to
the new Congress contained the usual
assortment of polite evasions of real-
ity which characterize the man. No
mention is made of lynching. The
unemployed are considered in exact-
ly the same light in which the ordi-
nary human being treats a stray dog
—something has to be done, but let
Us not get excited. For the unem-
ployed Mr. Roosevelt's program is no
program at all. He urges that pol!-
cy so dear to the U. S. Chamber of
Commerce—more local relief, more
handouts, more charity drives, more
degradation under the guise of self-
help. We are not surprised that the
Associated Press's financial writer in
New York wrote that “the Presi-
dent's message to Congress was about
as expected in Wall Street and failed
to jar the market off dead center.”
‘There was no rearon why it should.
‘Mr, Roosevelt at the outset paid his
respects to profits. These must come
first. ‘The millions of permanently
unemployed are a second thought.
The Afro-Americans, lynched and
proscribed, do not enter into his con-
selousness at all, apparently. And
to crown his hypocrisy, Mr. Roose-
velt ends with the smug reference to
the Deity, the cheap trick of the po-
litteal fraud.
——
“THE SOUTH IN THE SADDLE.”
‘The vice-president of the United
States and president of the U. S.
Senate, the floor-leaders of both the
U. §. Senate and House of Represen-
tatives and the speaker of the House
are all southern Democrats, “erack-
ers.” Preident Roosevelt, whose
winter residence is at Warm Springs,
Ga., and who claims to be a “half
southerner” as a result, was recently
quoted in the daily newspapers of
the country as saying that he “loved
the Confederacy.” With the ‘forezo-
ing in mind, and things happening
thruout the NORTH like that re-
ferred to in the Los Angeles letter,
elsewhere in this paper, one can
‘easily sce what the southern Demo-
cratic controlled Roosevelt adminis-
tration has in store for those of our
people in this section of the country. |
This was true of the Thomas Wood-
row Wilson southern Democratic ad-
ministration which started the move-
ment to force upon our people of the
North the general mistreatment ac-
corded them “down in hell,” the
South. Especially do we commend
this to the serious consideration of
the so-called “Negro” Democrats of
this section of the country, nearly all
of whom are even yet looking in
vain for the jobs promised them
prior to the last national election for
“selling out” their people of the en-
tire country to our bitterest enemies
for empty promises, a little cash and
cheap political notoriety. Lord, have
merey! Some selfish “Negroes” will
do almost anything to ALL their
people in an effort to promote their
own selfish personal interests. And
what hurts most is the great mass of
our people permit them to “get away
with it” without punishment of any
kind. Some day, we hope they will
awaken to the seriousness of this
perfidy.

PROGRESSIVE THEOLOGY.
_ Afro-Americans have been too
Jong content to listen to sermons
which have neither rhyme nor rea-
son. Too many of us are willing to
swallow a brand of theology which
science killed two centuries ago. We
are accustomed to sound and fury
dished out as a substitute for
thoughtful statements and logical
Presentations of vital issues, We
say this to preface a few remarks on
ja local situation. Some of our mem-
bers of the cloth are becoming exer-
cised because the younger ministers,
educated in reasonably decent insti-
tutions of learning, are unwilling to
accept hell-fire doctrines or to ex-
Press their faith in Oriental fables.
Im such a controversy we are on the
side of youth. No man, regardless
of his calling, can claim leadership
of an oppressed group if he insists
on keeping them in ignorance. ‘The
hell-fire preacher, in this twentieth
century, has no place in the com-
munity. The churchman opposed to
evolution has a right to speak his
mind. He has no right to attempt to
discredit tho evolutionist with whom
he is not in sympathy. If he seeks
to fight his progressive associates,
then he is guilty of trying to keep his
people in ignorance. It is our sin-
cere recommendation to the hell-fire
and brimstone pastors that they de-

| “Reughing” Ralph Metcalfe. |
New York City.—Despite the fact

sprint record, the Amateur Athletic
Union awarded the “James B. Sullt
Yan Memorial Trophy” to Wm. R.
Bonthion (white), long distance run-
ner, The trophy is given annually
for the outstanding contribution to
the cause of amateur athletics and
sportsmanship. Metcalfe reeeived
the third highest ‘number of votes
for the award. “Blood is thicker
than water.” It is the established
policy of the Amateur Athletic Union
to discriminate against our athletes,
it seems. Frank Capone, A. A. U.
official and head basketball coach of
Michixan University, refused to per-
mit Franklin Lett,” star basketball
player, to join the’ varsity team be-
cause Lett iy an Afro-American, it is
said.

Detroit, Mich.—Joe Louis of this
city, age 21, only six months out of
the amateur ranks, sent Patsy Per-
roni to the eanyas for the count of
nine with a short left hook in the
second round of their bout, last week
Friday night, a blow that didn't
seem to travel more than six or
seven inches. Again, near the close
of the seventh round, he did the same
thing with a right uppercut, In the
ninth, Joe shot three straight right-
hand body punches home and then
slipped a solid right to Patsy's Jaw
that again floored him ¢or the nine
count, and Patsy weighed eight
pounds more than Joe. It was the
closest Perroni ever came to a knock-
out. He was Louis’ 13th victim.
There Was never any question about
the outcome of the fight once Louis
got the range on Pat and let him
haye it in the second. He surely is
on his way to the championship,
especially since the old-time fighter
de luxe, Blackburn, is his manager
and trainer. It is really remarkable
what he has done for the lad in only
six months time. Another half year
and Joe Will be pounding on Cham-
pionship Max Baer’s door. He num-
bers among his victims Charlie Mas-
sera, Stanley Péreda, Lee Ramage,
Perroni and others, the best in the
heavyweight class outside of the
champion and himseli.

OHIO’S MOB VIOLENCE ACT
OR AN1I-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY
IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION
Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder—Three Years’
Work of a Member of the Race—Also
His Ohio Civil Rights Law.
Our mob-violence or anti-lyncbing bill was introduced in the Ohio
egislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C.
Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into
‘aw. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitu-
Hlonality of the law and it has been very effective. IVinois, Pennsylvania
ind New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or
tnti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other north-
trn states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted
inti-lynehing laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows:
Mops.
Section
6278, “Mob” and “lynching” defined
6279, “Serious injury” defined.
6280. Damages in case of assault.
6281. Damages in case of lynching.

6283, Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch anothor.
6284. Limitations of action.
6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy.

tor had enacted while a member of

zen, except for reasons applicable
alike to all citizens and regardless of
race or color, the full enjoyment of
the accommodations, advantages,

ASSASSIN
A Drinker of Hashish!
In eleventh-century Persia, a secret order was founded by Hassan ben Sabbah, indulging in the use of the Oriental drug hashish, and, when under its influence, in the practice of secret murder. The murderous drinker of hashish came to be called hashab in the Arabic and from that origin comes our English word assasin!

Why the American Scottsboro Committee, The N. A. A. C. P. and I. L. D. Do Not Unite in the Fight to Save the Boys.
New York City, Jan. 2, '35.
Hon. Harry C. Smith.
Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O.
Dear Mr. Smith:—I read with keen interest your editorial comment, in the Dec. 8 Gazette, on the Scottsboro cases in which you urge the American Scottsboro Committee, and the N. A. A. C. P. to sink their differences and unite with the L. D.
I am writing to say that eight of the persons who took the lead in forming The American Scottsboro Committee made repeated efforts during the last three years to work with the I. L. D. and the Communists and other radical groups supporting that organization. Thousands of dollars were raised and expended under their handling of the Scottsboro case. I enclose a statement from one of these persons. These persons found it practically impossible to continue with them on account of the tactics used in handling this case. Since we formed the American Scottsboro Committee, Inc., we have accumulated evidence that the surtest way to bring the boys' lives is to support legal counsel separate from such agitation and political ganda for which their cases have been used during the past three and a half years. In this conviction we have the support of the leaders of many organizations.
Furthermore, there is not a scintilla of evidence that these boys have wanted their lives and safety used for propaganda purposes. If they were part of such radical movements and wanted to have themselves so used, we would not feel we had a right to interfere. On the other hand, all the affidavits and letters we have seen give evidence that the boys assert only that they are innocent and want to be freed. The American Scottsboro Committee is working to that end.
Yours very truly,
George E. Haynes,
Executive Vice-Chairman, The American Scottsboro Committee.

Ontong Java
Copra Is Food, Currency and Chief Article of Trade.
Premared by National Geographic Society,
Washington, D.C.
O THE natives of Qarang Java
a group of isles lying in the
land-bespinkled sea off the
northwest coast of New Guinea
coconuts are synonymous with money,
for copa (dried coconut meats) serves
as currency. Five pieces of tobacco
represent one hundred copa; a bolt of
calico, a number of thousand copa
according to its quality, and so on.
The growing coconut on the palms
are spoken of as "green," although they
may be either green or yellow in color.
At this stage they are full of the delicious sweet milk, thirst-quenching as lemonade, and the flesh they contain is very thin.
When the nuts are ripe, the flesh is of maximum thickness, and they fail to the ground. Then they are gathered and the thick husks are removed,
the nuts emerging as they are sold in European and American shops. They are split in halves, the milk being now more or less sour, and are placed open end downward on the drying frame, a stand supported on legs about 4 feet high.
Mats are put over the nuts, and a fire lighted beneath the frame is allowed to burn for about 12 hours. The dried flesh then is readily removed from the shell with the aid of a porpoise bone or sharpened stick. This operation over, the dried flesh, or copra, as it is called, is taken to the trading station in baskets and exchanged for goods. When a ship calls, the copra is put into bags and weighed and then carried by natives into flat-bottomed pumps, which are towed off to the ship by a motor launch. The copra goes to Tulagi, on Florida island of the Solomon group, where it is trans-shipped to Sydney. The oil extracted from copra is used in making soaps, candles, and butter substitutes; the pulp becomes cattle feed.
The other and far less important item of exchange at Ontong Java is trochus shell. This shell, like the copra, is shipped. It usually finds its way to Japan or Belgium, where it is cut and polished into "pearl" buttons. The cone-shaped, reddish shell (sometimes the red shows outside if the button has been imperfectly cut) is washed up into shallow water of the reefs where it is collected by the natives, who dive for it if necessary.
Trepang and Ivory Nuts.
The lagoon abounds with beche demer, the treapang or sea slug, a food delicacy of the East. It is collected by Japanese, who come out from Tulagi in special luggers. From dinghies they look out for the slugs below. When a suitable specimen is sighted, the diver goes over the side, sinks about a fathom, then transfixes his prey with the end of a sort of weighted harpoon, which he might be said to let fall upon it.
The slugs are cleaned, boiled, and dried. A full cargo for a lugger, about five tons, usually takes three months to collect. Although, of course, the price varies, it is normally $4,000 to $5,000.
Ivory nuts, the products of a graceful palm, are used chiefly for making buttons, knife handles and similar articles. The nuts are crushed and the objects molded from the paste made from them.
A native home on the islands is rectangular. It has a framework of poles, tied in position with rope made from the fiber of the coconut husk. No nails are used. The peaked roof is thatched with pandanus-palm leaf, the leaves bent over and made fast to a stick about 4 or 5 feet long. These sticks, tied to the roof poles so that they overlap, make a virtually rain-proof roof. The walls of the house are made of mats of plaited coconut leaf tied to the upright sticks. The floor is also covered with these mats. Natives use these mats as beds. Other mats are used for blankets, and pieces of wood as pillows.
In the native house, one end serves as the kitchen and storeroom. In the middle of the floor is the hearth, actually a hole in the ground with piles of coral stones alongside. Around the walls are piled, in separate places, the fuel of coconut husks and shells, the nets, lines and other fishing tackle, coconuts to be used later for food, and other odds and ends. Hanging from the wall are a wooden dish and a pestle used in the preparation of food. There is also a stool carved from a solid log.
Clean, Charming Natives.
The natives are a clean, friendly and altogether charming people. Fond of swimming, they always bathe at least once a day. They are well-built and handsome, many reaching 5 feet
6 inches in height and some 6 feet or more. Their complexion, of a light coffee color, is similar to that of the Hawaiians.
Boys from about fourteen years of age to twenty wear their hair cut fairly close. From then until they are married men with small families, they allow it to grow long. They resume hair-cutting at the beginning of middle age and continue the practice until they are old. For mature men, custom favors a rather close crop over most of the head, with a bushy turtel left at each side. There are, however, many exceptions to this rule.
Girls wear their hair in the two tufts until they become mothers, and from then on keep their heads fairly closely shaved—a style discouraging to lice. The hair is usually black, though at the ends it may bleach to a reddish brown, and it may be straight, wavy, or, in a few cases, distinctly woolly.
Hands and feet of both men and women are frequently small and often delicately shaped, but the instep is rarely high and some natives are almost flat-footed. However, the legs are straight and beautiful, and many of the men have a grace and beauty that might be the envy of an ancient Greek.
Virtually every woman wears as a skirt a fathom of canvas, kept in place by a belt of woven pandanus leaf or plaited human hair. The upper part of the body is left bare. For a man's attire a strip of calico passing around the waist and between the legs and tied back and front suffices. Children of both sexes go naked till they are about eleven or twelve.
Elaborate Tattooing.
Both men and women are tattooed. The decoration is begun in early childhood and with the forehead and nose. The forehead pattern resembles an open book. At the age of twelve or so, when the girls first wear skirts permanently, they receive suits of tattooing from waist to knee that look from a distance like close-fitting, figured black bloomers. Only on close inspection can the actual pattern be discerned. The pattern is made up of fish and geometrical designs. As the girl grows older, fish are added around the hips and on the stomach. Later still when she becomes pregnant for the first time, the tattooing is finished by the covering of the breasts, chest, back, arms, and even the cheeks and chin lines of the face with fish design.
Upon first acquaintance, the tattooing makes all women look alike and all seem equally hideous; but one soon fails to notice it at all, despite the fact that the markings are a deep, greedy black. One soon learns to distinguish individuals.
The men have far less tattoo than the women. Except on the forehead and nose, they have none until they are about twenty years of age. Then two broad bands are added, extending from the shoulder around the back to the thighs and in front terminating in two arrows on the chest. The arm is tattooed either with fish or a geometrical design. A row of dots just below the eye gives exactly the effect that a woman seeks when she darkens her lids; it makes the eyes stand out and appear to be much larger than they are. When a man is the father of a family, he may have a few fish added on his back and hips and thighs; but many forego 'this right.
Coconut Palm Most Useful.
Coconut Palm Most Useful.
It would be impossible to find any other single tree which serves such a variety of ends as the coconut palm, especially on Leuania island. It gives food and drink—the latter particularly important on smaller islands where there are no water holes. Visitors have gone for ten days with nothing to drink but coconut milk. Also, it furnishes, besides the copra of commerce, a strongly alcoholic today and a sticky slur resembling treacle.
The husks and shells provide fuel and the dried spathe is excellent tender. The shells serve as plates, spoons and water bottles. The wats for walls and for beds are made from the leaves; the dried leaves, tied into bundles, give light as torches and dares. The spines of the leaves are made into brooms, and the central stalk provides a weak timber which is put to a number of uses. The outer skin of this stalk is useful where a strong, tough rope is required, as in lashing the gunwale of the canoe to the dugout log.
The rope made from the husk thief serves all general purposes from house tiles to fish line. A course covering at the base of the leaf, which at a first glance looks like a roughly woven fabric, is made into strainers and sieves.

Smartly Veiled Midwinter Brides
Smartly Veiled Midwinter Brides
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
eyebrow-line caps. This one is fashioned of a treasured bit of lace instead of tuile. Loose close and you will see medal lions of the lace scattered here and there on the long veil. The particular thing t
AS FAR as being smartly, charmingly and distinctively velled, the outlook for midwinter brides-to-be was never more propitious. And why? Because more and more designers are specializing in wedding vell-craft. Wherefore it is the good fortune of the modern bride to have had made available to her an array of wedding veils and bridal party finery the likes of which never could have been evolved by other than master artists. The reaction to this spectacular gesture on the part of designers to create accessory ensembles for bride and bridesmaids which omit no detail of beauty and finesse is that the custom is growing among those who are planning a wedding cortege which shall be a "perfect picture" to patronize special shops that carry these lovely ensembles rather than to rely on the services of the novice or the kindly endeavors of home talent.
An outstanding choice among fashionable brides this season is the little closefitting cap made either of exquisite lace or all of tulle which features the new and extremely becoming Joan Crawford eyebrow line. See the bride seated to the left in the picture. She is wearing a charming cap of this description. In this instance the cap is made entirely of tulle with wee ruches of self-tulle for trimming. The absence of lace on the headpiece makes the beauty of the lace sleeve all the more apparent, which is a stroke of absolute genius on the part of the designer. The stately bride centered in the picture is also wearing one of the voguish
WITH METAL STRIPE By CHERIE NICHOLAS
100
Of course you must have a metal-stripe taffetta blouse. It will dress you up for most any occasion. A combination costume for dinner or evening wear is illustrated. Black taffetta with shining silver stripes fashions the blouse. It tops a floor-length skirt of crepe black satin. The sash is of brilliant red crepe.
Hats of Novel Fabrics
Hats are showing not only a decided change in style but are also appearing in new materials. Exotic models of bamboo fiber are being displayed and there are numerous synthetic fibers, furs, suedes, braids, stray velour and fine weaves.
"Parachute" Caps
Double and triple-tiered "parachute" capes on wraps, balloon-topped sleeves, and tightly buttoned jackets with stiffened, rounded front flares are among the features in London dress shows.
longer part of this veil is detachable. This is for the convenience of the bride when she mingles with her friends after the ceremony. After the long trailing veil is removed the shorter veil is thrown back from the face, forming a popular cape fashion enveloping the shoulders. The gown is of lusterless heavy white satin.
For the youthful bride could anything be lovelier than a quaint little Dutch bonnet effect as shown to the right in the group? The veil is lace-bordered in harmony with the picturesque flange masks which fold back on the bonnet away from the face. Her grishl frock is of tree-bark white crepe.
In this history of wedding veils for the midwinter bride we have saved the biggest thrill to the last—a vision of ice-blue tulle over satin in the same blue. The veil is finger-tip length falling from a cunning bonnetlike headpiece which has a flaring cuff brim. The entire ensemble is elaborated with wee rose plaitings of the tulle making it very flattery and pretty, but here's the big sensation—the announcer at the style showing tells the spellbound audience that this ensemble is designed for the young divorcee who is to wed again. Thus does fashion indeed go modern! The same lovely ensemble follows in the procession repeated in blush pink for the young widow who re-weds. We might add that the designer tells us that in Mexico the short veil for a second plunge into matrimony has been in vogue for some time.

NEW PASTEL SHADES
SHOWN FOR SPRING
Fresh developments in pastel tones mark the collection of twenty-six colors announced for the 1935 spring and summer season by the National Knitted Outwear association in collaboration with the Textile Color Card association. The shades vary from subtle, cloudy tints named heavenblue and glasspink to positive shades like maris blue, a deep turquoise, and acid green, a yellowish tone of the poison variety. Coralmist and cameo rose express the pink fashion, whetgold and crystal green will be smart for southern resort and summer wear, and cameo cream is a new variation of off-white. There are also bright hues, including Canton gold, sunorange, Chinese peacock, talisman blue, cocarde red and Limerick green. Concord blue and dawnblue uphold that basic color, favored in the Paris mid-season collections. Toffee brown and Javatan are new variations, and copperint and Indian clay vary the popular rust theme.
Ermine Muffs Are Shaped Like Drums and Pill
Instead of saying "Ho hum" with a yawn, people over here are saying "Oh, heim" with the greatest of enthusiasm
Helm it is, who has created so many interesting fashions for this winter—odd things that very few people can actually wear, but which are marvelous headlines—and then a whole gamut of the most practical and cleverly concocted costumes you ever saw.
His is that cunning little ermine nuff made like a drum and the hat to accompany, made toque shape with a little halo of ermine encircling the head. His is also that huge pillow nuff made of two full silver fox skins tails hanging down one side and heads down the other.
New Gauntlet Gloves
Have you seen the gauntlet gloves of wool, with a cut-out monogram in gold metal accenting the little strap which crosses the back of the wrist?
Checks Still Popular
Materials with large checks continue to be popular among smart women.
LUELLA GEAR, popular singing star of "It's Bigger At Bigger," liken menthol-cooled cigarettes between acts and even sings a song about Spud, her favorite, in the Broadway musical hit now making a long record run for this season.

THE study steel steamer Jacob Ruppert, flagship of the Byrd Antarctic Expedition, and the only one of her kind ever driven through the ice fields of the Ross Sea to the Antarctic continent, is being refueled at Dunedin, New Zealand. Her oil burning engines have been thoroughly overhauled and the Tide Water Oil Company is pouring 2,000 tons of fuel oil into her tanks to carry her again to that strangest of all spots, the Bay of Waves. She will leave Dunedin about January 1st to bring back to civilization Admiral Byrd and the 55 intrepid and intelligent men who have spent the dark Antarctic winter in that collection of snow-buried hats officially known as Little America. They must get off the crumbling ice early in February or go through another winter down there.
Before they wave their final salute to Uncle Sam's southernmost post office, however, they will have made amazing exploration history. The sun has returned to Antarctica. Already the tractors and dog teams are on the trails. The airplanes and snowmobiles and more dog teams

Through the air and over the 200 feet thick ice (with 1600 feet of black water beneath it) Admiral Byrd and his men will fly, drive and run, uncovering in record time more hitherto unseen territory than any single expedition has ever inspected before. And this will be made possible only by their gasoline engines. Thousands of gallons of Tydol gasoline and Veedol motor oil have been cached at strategic spots, some of them hundreds of miles from Little America. Undiscovered mountains, plateaus, glaciers, minerals and simple forms of plant and animal life will be geographical and scientific investigation ever accomplished by mankind.
And if our geographies, our natural history and physics text books and our ideas of the grim Antarctic continent undergo great resulting changes, as they will, you may be sure that the science of perfecting automotive engines and the fuels and lubricants to make them operate efficiently when failure would mean disaster can be given full credit for its share in this romantic job. Let's watch Byrd and his men—and his machines—for the next few months.
