THE RICHMOND PLANET SEGREGATION CASE IN COURT VOLUME XLVI, NO. 23 SEGRE CAS White Ow Colored Case Argued (Special by John Mitchell, Jr) .. The continued case of James Austin, a colored man, charged with violating the segregation ordinance by moving into a house at 2200 E. Broad Street was heard in the Police Court Tuesday; 16th inst. with Judge T. Gray Haddon presiding. Attorney J. R. Pollard represented the accused. Later, he was assisted by Attorney Alfred E. Cohen, while the prosecution was represented by City Attorney James E. Cannon and assistant. Attorney Lucius F. Cary. LONG ARGUMENT For two hours the argument went on while the Judge listened patiently to the many legal authorities quoted by the Assistant City Attorney. He had before him a pile of law books only two or three he found it necessary to open and read therefrom. Attorney Pollard had no law books with him. He quoted authorities however. It was at the conclusion of the argument that Judge T. Gray Haddon declared that he had his doubts as to the constitutionality of the ordinance^a and he desired to have it tested. ..... DISPOSED TO SEND IT ON He was disposed to rule on the case and send it up for adjudication by a court of record that could pass upon the constitutionality of the ordinance. If he dismissed the case the City Attorney could not appeal. He decided to consider the authorities cited by both sides and they agreed to have this information in his hands by April 25th. Then he would decide just what he would do. MANY LAW BOOKS. The hour set for the $ \mathrm{e} $ hearing was 11 o'clock, but it was nearly 12 o'clock before the City Attorney appeared with $ \mathrm{h} $ his Assistant and Alderman Henry W. Woody. The latter brought in the array of law books. Attorney Pollard arose and said "Your Honor I want $ \mathrm{t} $ make a motion to quash the $ \mathrm{e} $ warrant. We admit the facts. We admit that James Austin has violated this ordinance.' ADMITTED EVERYTHING. - Attorney Cary: "You admit that James Austin resides in a block where he is the only colored resident? You admit that he is a colored person?" Pollard replied in the affirmative. This made it unnecessary to hear witnesses and they were dis missed. Attorney Pollard claimed that the ordinance was confusing, was not properly drawn specified existing rights when it should specify vested rights. WANTED TO CITE AUTHORITIES In a matter tarrying with it penalties of such severity, he asked per mission to cite authorities in support of his motion $t_0$ quash. This was not granted however and Assistant City Attorney Cary proceeded to argue the case. This was not done though before Judge Haddon said: "I am perfectly willing to hear from both sides. If there is any doubt as to whether a party is guilty, then I consider it. Hire is a case in which the public is interested on both sides. The effect of it will be that no matter which way the case goes either the one or the other side will contest it. It ought $t_0$ be settled one way, or the other. Austin isn't the particular party involved in this case. VALIDITY AT STAKE. It is the validity of the ordinance at stake. If I should hold that the ordinance is a nullity, if I should hold that it is not a violation of the Constitution it would not settle anything. What both sides want is a test. If I should hold that the ordinance is a nullity the city could appeal in the same way that the defense could do in case of a conviction. WANTED COURT TO RULE. Mr. Cary: "I would ask the Court to rule on the motion to quash. I have no doubt as to the constitutionality of the ordinance in view of recent decisions. This ordinance does not prevent a colored person from purchasing and acquiring title to property. It deals with its use and the Supreme Court has said that the use of property can be regulated by ordinance by towns and cities. The exercise of police power cannot be affected unless it plainly conflicts with a constitutional provision." BUT ONE OPINION. He said that the Supreme Court of the United States has never written but one opinion with regard to segregation. It was in 1917 and related to the Louisville case in Kentucky. He discussed this phase of the case at length. He compared it to the zoning ordinance, which segregates business and residences. Councils can regulate the use of property when it conserves and protects the rights of citizens. He cited authorities. NOT A NUISANCE. A colored person living on a block is not a nuisance. "I am friend ly to colored people," said he, "but a colored person living on the same block with a white person is the right thing in the wrong place." Attorney Alfred E. Cohen the noted constitutional lawyer entered. Mr. Cary said that the Fourteenth Amendment does not override the rights of the health the morals and the betterment of conditions of a community. USE NOT PROTECTED. The use of property is not protected by the Constitution or the United States. The ordinance does grant equal rights to both white and colored. White people, who choose to reside in the midst of colored people are usually of ill repute and the dabursers of liquor. Attorney Pollard pronounced Mr. Cary's utterances as "wonderful argument as to the constitutionality of the ordinance." He was willing to furnish the Court with a copy of the brief filed by him and his associate in the United States District Court MOTION TO QUASH. He wanted to cite authorities in support of his motion to quash. He spoke at length. He was followed by Mr. Cohen, who said: "If your Honor please, an existing right is a living right. It is broad enough $_{\mathrm{h}}$ to include $_{\mathrm{a}}$ a vested right. Addressing myself to the main features this matter is not new at all. All of this argument was made in the Supreme Court of Virginia in 1918." Mr. Cohen cited other authorities showing a wonderful familiarity as to time and dates and cases. RACES FAVORED "Mr. Justice, Day of the United States Supreme Court had said that nothing in the segregation movement related to race purity. Sorrowy may live in the same house with their masters and mistresses. He showed that the ordinance discriminated in favor of Japanese, Mongolians and Asiatics, for a Negro could marry any one of these or they could marry a Negro without violating the racial integrity law. It was then the City Attorney Hon. James E. Cannon mad, a brief argument. HAD COVERED GROUND. He said that his colleague had covered the ground. He made other comment concerning the questions at issue and declared that in his opinion the Supreme Court of th RICHMOND ,V'RGIN1A, SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1929 United States had reversed itself by its subsequent decisions. To this counsel for the defendant took exceptions. He told Judd Haddon that he thought it was his duty to pronounce the ordinance valid. HAD HIS DOUBTS Judg_e Haddon said: "As far as the constitutionality of the ordinance is concerned, that is sorr a court of record. If I were sitting in such a court, I would want to read all of the cases presented by counsel for both sides. I have serious doubts as to the constitutionality of the ordinance. If I dismissed this case I do not think that the city could appeal it. But in view of all facts it can be tested by an appeal. I want it tested. WOULD PERMIT APPEAL. "I am going to solve the doubt by permitting an appeal. However, I would like to have time in this matter. It was decided that both sides should have their citations of law in the hands of the judge $e$ by April 25th. In speaking of the zoning ordinance the $e$ fact was overlooked that this zoning ordinance did not discriminate on account of race or color. The segregation ordinance does discriminate on account of race and color and this brings it in conflict with the Constitution of the United States. It is based on race and color. LIGHT AND DARKNESS SERVICE The Willing Workers Club of Sixth Street Baptist Church, 6th and Clay Sts., will give a Light and Darkness Service at the church, Sunday night April 21, at 8 o'clock. The public is invited. Rev. Joseph Arrington, pastor; Mrs. Mattie Arrington, chairman; Miss Lucille Lascie, pianist. NATIONAL IDEALS BEGIN BIG DRIVE Much interest is being aroused in the Big Membership Drive under the supervision of the Spureme Master A. W. Holmes. Commander-in-Chief General Amos C.

STATE EMBALM ERS MEET HERE The late Dr. Booker T. Washington would often tell the story of a white showman who staged a tent scene in which he told everybody to go in, after paying the entrance fee, and see a sight that they had never seen before, it being thought that such a thing was impossible. They went in and were disgusted to find that he had herded a number of Negroes together and he had them all pulling on a rope together. Negroes had been noted for not pulling together and for working against each other. A UNIFIED BODY This was the feeling with reference $t_0$ the colored funeral directors of this city and when about two years ago, Funeral Director Robert C. Scott proposed the organization of the colored funeral directors and embalmers, few thought that it would finally develop into the unified body now in existence today. Now committees are working $t_0$ entertain the colored funeral directors and embalmers who are expected to arrive here next Wednesday in time for the first annual session of the State Association.

H. called it an illustrous occasion. He stands forth as a man of God, a pastor and a preacher. He was called of God. Paul called Timothy. Special gifts come to a man in his calling.

He tells the story of Jesus and His love. He preaches in a way that sets folks' souls on fire. He preaches or divine things with a "glick" in it. Rev.

The Conference loved and honored him. His Christ-like traits and his frankness attracted the body. You can trust him. If he says a thing is so we believe it. He is approachable. He is sincere. He is meek. His occupancy of the mulpit of his great church had not affected him as it would have done some others MANY GIFTS FOR THE PASTOR Deacon Branch asked for an offering.

B. 111 Company, 408 Pearl Street, Chicago; 221 Victoria Building, 81 Louis, Mo; 300 Longueau Building, New York SATURDAY .....APRIL 20. 1929 THE SEGREGATION CASE We listened carefully to the very able argument of Assistant City Attorney Lucius F. Cary, backed by the glowing comment of his distinguished superior officer, Hon. James E. Cannon, in the Police Court, Tuesday morning, and we were convinced that these gentlemen are relying upon the decisions of the courts in deciding that cities and municipalities have a right to define and specify the uses to which property shall be put without regard to ownership. Let us see. Are these decisions "on all fours" as lawyers would say with the segregation case, the ordinance enacted by the Richmond, Va., City Council? A zoning ordinance defines the use to which a building shall be put, the kind of building that shall be erected and it stops there. It states that within certain confines or limits of a city, the kind and nature of the construction and whether the structures shall be used for residential or commercial purposes. It does not say whether a white merchant or a colored merchant shall do business in a store or industrial structure. It does not say whether a white family or a colored family shall occupy a residential structure. To be plain, it does not make the restriction or limit the use on account of either race or color. It grants to a white an or owner the privilege to use his property himself or to permit its use by another and it grants to the colored man the same privilege. But the segregation ordinance takes away from the white person the right and privilege to use his own residential property should it be in a block, where the majority of the residents are colored and it takes away from a colored person the right to himself use his own property if the majority of the residents in that particular block are white persons. This interferes with the vested right of ownership and is expressly forbidden in the Louisville, Ky., decision handed down by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1917. What would be thought of an ordinance that did not interfere with the purchas_e of a Rolls-Royce car by a colored person, but prohibited that person from riding in it on the streets of Richmond with a white person as an occupant or vice versa? One proposition is about as ridiculous as the other. No one, who will read carefully the very definite decision of the Supreme Court of the United States and has at the same time an open mind can doubt the unconstitutionality of the segregation ordinance. The Supreme Court of the United States must reverse itself in such a manner that the "seat of its breccles will be in front," for it to decide that this piece of municipal patch-work squares with the past decisions of that august tribunal in Washington. ANOTHER COLORED CONGRESSMAN The election of Hon. Oscar DePriest to the House of Representatives has emphasized the fact that the citizen of color in this country has a destiny, which is slowly but surely developing itself. The South, from which all past political recognitions have come is no longer in the limelight. The desire of the white labor unions to get rid of foreign competition in their lines led to the enactment of drastic immigration laws, which in turn caused the industrial centres in the North and West to "run short" in man power. As a result, resort was had to the Negro labor elements in the Southland and then the great migration set in. Chicago, Illinois, was the objective and with this heavy Negro population, the desire for political recognition increased. Mayor William Hale Thompson, that masterful Republican white leader, saw the trend and he is credited with having thrown his support to Oscar DePriest with the re- suit that he has chained the black vole to speak, to his chariot wheel. This is the beginning of the movement and there is little doubt, but what some other colored leader will soon be heard from as having a voice in this public forum of the nation. No white man can speak for the Negro like the Negro can speak for himself. It is true that black men are envious and jealous of each other, but this does not hold true with reference to the masses and this handicap must ultimately give way to the movement for the general good. Despite prophesies to the contrary Oscar DePriest holds an undisputed title to his seat in Congress and the shadows which loomed have melted away to nothingness. It is now Congressman, the Negro Congressman from the Windy City, in a congressional district where Negroes hold away. The Richmond, Va., News-Leader says: "Representative Tinkham, of Massachusetts, today made public a letter in which he informs Attorney-General吳執直 that President Howard will be subject to impeachment if he does not enforce the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the federal constitution, with especial reference to the voting rights of Negroes." We don't see it that way, with all due respect to Representative Tinkham of Massachusetts. It seems to us that it is the duty of the Congress to provide the appropriate legislation under which President Hoover is to act to bring about this enforcement. The reduction of representation in States denying the Negroes the right to vote is the remedy. The fight should be waged in a Republican Congress of which the distinguished New Englander is a member. What is to be done with Hon. Henry W. Anderson, a leading Republican in this State, who openly opposes the right of the Negro voters to vote and to participate in the Republican organization in Virginia, together with others who hold similar views upon this all important subject? They are Democrats wearing Republican uniform. They stand up when holding political office and swear to one thing and when they retire from the place proceed to do something else. What is to be done about it?

BLACK, Pastor Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, North End First Street. THREE MARYS AT THE TOMB FROM PAINTING BY SPURGENBERG ```markdown ``` Fulfillment of prophecy is one of the strongest evidences of the authenticity of Scripture. The fact that exact statements of future events could be made hundreds of years in advance, and later developments would be in perfect accord, argues mightily for the inspiration that believers in the Word claim for it. In no instance is the problem of fulfillment made any greater than in this lesson study, in which these varied Messianic statements are made. Much discussion has centered about the implications in "The Servant of Jehovah," which theme is found in repeated portions of Isaiah, such as 41:8-20; 42:1-7, 18-25; 43:5-10; 49:1-9; 50:4-10; 52:13-53:12. Many claim that the "Suffering Servant" refers only to the Jewish nation. The conservative interpretation is that, while it has a direct implication to the Chosen People, it refers primarily to the promised Messiah and is a glorious description of Jesus Christ in His divine office work. There are many other prophecies concerning Him in the Old Testament. Compare the record of this Life as recorder in the Gospels and note how each prediction was performed, and there will be both added and intense reverence for the Holy Bible. Read this particular lesson text at least three times. A wonderful Person is being portrayed. Multitudes still fail to believe the message and hence lose much in their lives. He is referred to as a man, and so is His Father Jehovah. We continue to objectify a spirit in terms of human form, such as "the arm of the Lord." Constantly through the years of His public ministry "He was deserved and rejected." No one can ever know the extent of His sorrows. He was more sensitive than any other in all the history of the world. We know of His agony and bloody sweat in the Garden of Gethsemane. Only the angels could appreciate His worth as they looked on in pity. His physique sufferings and heartaches were only incidents compared to the mediatorial work He was perfecting. His acts were vicarious, as He took the law place of the sinners of the world. His bruises of heart as well as of body, together with the chastisement of the Pilate commanded stripes, were for our healer. (20th and Decatur, So. Richmond) Man's indifference to such love is worse than pathetic. The picture is of sheep purposely going astray while the shepherd is tenderly calling them to safety and fullest provision. Pulpit vacant. Services: Sunday II:30 A. M. and 8 P. M. Sunday School 5:30 A. M. The public is welcome Throughout His earthly life He was silent under every form of abus and oppression. Pilate was amazed at His quiet demeanor. Others under similar circumstances of injustice would rail at their accusers. The loyers of this Messiah rejoice that, after He had been crucified between two thieves, there was a royal-like tomb for that body through the graciousness of Joseph of Arimathea.

Milady's Beauty Secrets By Helena Rubinstein Helena Rubinstein 10 Sanatorium On Southwest Desert --- J. C. SIX It is impossible to estimate the numberless types of beauty we have in this country. And yet each type should know itself; should know all the fine points of grooming which skillfully draw into sharp relief that very individuality which makes for charm and personality. The hair and the clothes can do wonders for one. And of the two, perhaps the arrangement of the hair is the more important. Once a woman adopts a certain coiffure arrangement she is most apt to stick to it forever. That is why so many of our elderly ladies suffer under the harsh serenity of the Victorian "bum". When bobbing became universal, why so many women sacrificed their individuality to the shears. Then came the shingle and the Eton crop and the windblown beeh, and dozens of others, and with each of them the arrangement which was most attractive to ONE woman out of ten made the other nine look like so many sheared sheep! The new style says first, "Be yourself"; and second, "Be attractive while you are about it." And as a first step away from the tuxedo, you are returning so femininity of curbs and curves. BUT—and here Madame Mode crosses her fingers and looks both wise and grave—there is no lair, requires of all women ONE style of headwear. The law of fashion are Healed Writer Aids O 1st Sanatorium On HAROLD BELL WRIGHT Few persons who know Harold Bell Wright only as one of America's most popular novelists, realize he is active also in a great humanitarian work serving as vice-president of a sanatorium near his home in Tucson, Arizona, where prominent people from the United States have been nursed to health.

While the poets write traditional sonnets to the young man's fancy, the burnished dye and the flowers that bloom in the spring, the housewife cultivates poetry on the table. Spring blossoms forth in the new spring menu just as surely, as colorfully, and lightly as in a meadow of new buttercup. Appetites jaded with heavy winter foods, the tempting spring menu must include light and colorful desserts, according to H. T. King, chief of laboratory of the Welch Grape Juice Company. Grape juice with its delicate fragrance and luscious flavor, combined in new and entirely different ways, is the most beautiful and delicious tonic to the spring appetite. Spring dishes with the subtle piquancy of grapes will inspire even the least poetic member of the family to lyric prose.

And along that line, why- "everything goes," as the small boy phrases it. Paris shakes her head in disapproval of uniformity. Now for the styles themselves. One very pretty mode is for the shoulder bob. The hair is brushed back and allowed to fall in a natural frame around the face, and the ends for not more than two or three inches are curled in loose, soft ringlets. This is particularly lovely for the jeune file type- an oval face and regular features. A very modish address for the chic woman, the type who looks "stunning," never just "pretty," is as followed by the hair of being a straight line. It curves nearer to the center of the head in front and winds down toward the back. Brushing the hair straight back with a short part on the side and the top and back of the head covered with large soft curls is most suitable for a denure, dreamy type, and incidentally for the growing boy. The curls form a sort of aneole which is very charming.

Record-Breaking United Tractor Given Worla by New Co-Op Movement THE CITY OF BIRMINGHAM Landing Platforms Over Wharves Suggested for Small Planes Flying From Large Terminals. NEW YORK—The suggestion of members of the Architectural League to build landing platforms for small airplanes without points above the stylish waterfront has called attention not only to the possibility of expediting the air mail after its arrival at the nearby airports, but has created in street in one of New York's most marvelous institutions the pneumatic nail tube. The idea is to equip the local landing stations with pneumatic mail tubes leading directly into the post office system. At present the large mail and passenger planes reach the big airports which are far out of the city, and of the vicinity of tall buildings. I have been one hour and one half getting into town. But with small landing platforms for small planes, built above the piers of waterfront streets, a man arriving at a New Jersey airport from the West would be supported to the city landing place by a small plane in ten minutes, and within a few minutes after arriving at the airport, mail would be in the post office with the result that many times it would catch an earlier delivery.

Not tubes installed promiscuously without regard but scientifically placed where mathematically the computation has proved their usefulness." Unknown to most Manhattanites the tube service carries millions of letters daily at high speed through the mysteries of underground New York.

"By eliminating expensive competition in manufacturing and selling among our members we have cut costs to the minimum, and the result of this co-operative plan is the lowest-priced tractor ever offered, per pound of drawbar pull or per horsepower," said President Milton W.

"Our plan of financing service and advertising for dealers is unique and comprehensive, and it is equally attractive to farmers." good stations is carried to the post office stations there, and so you spill it to the distributing post offices on a column of air moving thirty miles at a time.

Beauty's Value 1. 1 NEW YORK - investments in good looks pay women bigger dividends than preferred stocks Carefully cultivated looks, manicured hands, wrinkles checks into which has been customized the illusion of youth, according to Mime Helena Ruinstein international beauty authority, the safest forms of insurance against a penniless old age Homeless, said Mime Ruinstein, greater liability than ignorance or inexperience. Take stock of your appearance. The experiences of the women you know who have achieved the top of the ladder should show you that a woman has a dollar and cents value. "Who but her beautiful relatives would have shed a tear when beautiful Mildred Darrden dropped to her death in the middle of the Pacific, and she been a scrawny old woman and he started out to stage chores of middle-aged tuxedo. The money of the world might have been unaltered if Cipriano had had a tuxedo." "Men of affairs put back a part of their profits into their business with year. Farmers plough under one crop every three or four years to enrich the soil. The head of a family sets aside part of his income for death and disability insurance. So the business or professional woman who wants to guarantee herself against a lonely and penniless old age should allot certain part of her salary for beauty."

Twenty-eight year old, she has eighteen children, all under nine years of age. She had a boy in 1920, a girl in 1922 and four sets of quadriplets in 1923, 1925, 1927 and 1929, sixteen children in four births. All are alive, ten boys, eight girls. It was said here during the war that because conquerors no longer dragged women away into slavery, Germany would soon recover. Frau Voelmer confirms that Washington says President Hoover intends to be the boss of his party. He might well, since it gave him 22,000,000 votes, Republicans of the South are told the Republican party must be reconstructed there on a sound, permanent basis; on the assumption that the war is past and forgotten, and that the South will join Republican prosperity, politically, if the Republicans behave themselves. Selling Federal offices to the highest bidder is to be stopped. Some Congressmen insist that President Hoover must write a farm relief bill and let the party pass it. The President will probably say, "No, you write it and pass it. If it isn't too foolish, will sign it." It is not easy to confer to a disorganized industry, millions of men on millions of farms, producing without method or plan, the prosperity enjoyed by well organized quantity production industry that pays good dividends. A very old Chinese statesman named Wu Tie-Hui was one of three that, on their word of honor, guaranteed the life and safety of Li Chai-sun, governor of Canton. Li Chai-sun was executed by the Nationalists, in spite of the guarantee. The aged Wu Tie-Hui considered himself self-disgraced and killed himself, although he had nothing to do with the execution of the man guaranteed. Many Westerners will find it difficult to understand that suicide. Senator McNary, head of the Committee on Farm Relief, asks John D. Fockeeller, Jr., Henry Ford, Charles M. Schwab, J. P.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER II. REHEARSAL "Our version of 'Pygmalion and Cinderella' would doubtless surprise you if you are at all familiar with the original, in which *Pygmalion* is the artist and carves the lady in the sketch out of a block of marble. We started out into to rehearse it that wombit ran into difficulties when the colour of costumes came up for discussion. It seemed advised that the shirt should wear white tights and white grease paint on the face in order to carry out the illustration. All the clothes of the club were white costume that it should be so but when it came to assigning parts each and every one to be *Galaena*. Once a time it looked as if we would have to fall back on some little sketch of Shakespeare's until Maryella made the practical suggestion that we change the story. Her idea was to make *Galaena* a sculptor who hammers a knife of stone into a beautiful male statue by the name of *Pygmalion*. Can you imagine that they bring up a thought like that? Writing is a suggestion carried. As the literary man of the organization, I was appointed to doctor up the manuscript to fit the change of characters. Later, much to my surprise and in spite of my protests, the stellar role of *Pygmalion* was forced upon me. To-night was to be the dress rehearsal and on the following evening we were scheduled to give a trial performance in the farm in the town. The trial performance was for the double purpose of getting easy in our parts and of making the old soldier reactor that war is not so tense after all. When I returned to bachelor room at town, time to change to some dry, hardy over to the rehearsal without getting anything to eat. Food did not appeal to me anyway. Neither did anything else, at least of rehearsing a lot of food-talk. My own romance had suffered a disheathing set-back that I was in no mood to enact the role of a hand-tammered Renaissance mythology. But I went just the same. You know how hard it is to step out of the routine business of your life just because some disaster has befallen you. Your perceptions become numbed and you arousaudely why the sun is shining, but you go on doing the things that are expected of you just as you have always done. "Business as usual" is not the motto of an exceptional nation. It is the underlying principle of the progress of the human race. The Sheridan Dramatic Club had followed for rehearsals the stage of the local opera-house, which was vacant that week. It was there that I wounded my disconcerted way. I was late, but it didn't make much difference, as all during the first act the statue of *Pygmalion* was a papier-mâché figure. Between the acts I was supposed to take the place of the statue in the same pae so that a little later I could come to life in response to *Gulletate*'s wish. When I came in they were rehearsing with the dummy. Everything appeared to be going very well. Maryella looked absolutely revishing in the Greek drapery, and Jim Cooper was doing the best he could to impersonate a skinny Greek warrior. He was even dimmer than I had suspected. As a Highlighter he would never be a competitor success. Any one could tell that at a glance. The part of a young sculptor's apprentice was taken by Mrs. Hemmingway, a dazzling blond who was worth going miles to behold in a short Greek tunic and sandals. She wouldn't have fooled any one but a blind man into thinking she was a boy, but nobody minded that. She had talents enough to get into a fierce chorus any day. There were a dozen other parts played with intent to fill in the good old amateur way. I discovered former male friends hidden behind bushy beards that dropped off occasionally at a critical moment, leaving the actor bald-faced and speechless; and ladies I used to know disguised as Hallemi maledias by doing their hair into a Psyche knot and trimming their best nighties with a Greek key-design and an occasional awakista. Off stage, doing a piece of embroidery while she waited for her que, was Mrs. George P. Lillielove, the wife of the most popular understory in town. In Greek嫂 Mrs. Lillielove looked almost exactly like a haystack with a tarpaulin over it. I slipped into my dressing-room mobserved. My costume was there I had not seen it before, so I was a trifle surprised at the bulk of it. The whole thing could have been put in the pocket of a dress waistcoat without spoiling the shape of it any. It was silk and white, but it seemed awfully thin. I played safe by wearing my underwear beneath it. There was no full-length mirror in my room, so I could not get the entire effect, but it locked all right as far as I could see. It was easy to make up my face all white and put on a white wig which was perched for me. I signed on my coat over the costume to step up on the stage. The curtain was down between the acts. I took my place on the pedestal, slightly nervous but determined to get through somehow if the seams of the tights did their part. The stage was dimly illuminated with blue moonlight. Just before the curtain rose I A dropped the overcoat behind me. I stood motionless during the introductory music. There was a flutter of surprise among the members of the club who were not on the stage at that moment and had stepped out into the auditorium to steal a look from the other side of the footlights. It must have been beautiful. I know I was conscious of looking well in that pose and lighting. I flexed my muscles to make them stand out better. soon as the performance of "Pygmalion and Galatea" was over, I would not leave them in the lurch now as I might do and wreck the entire performance, but as soon as it could be conspicuous I would assert my dignity and resign on the ground that it took too much of my time. I struck Maryella, but she could hardly expect me to stand for being made fun of before Jim Cooper. "I think it is an awfully funny play don't von?" inquired a voice behind Galatea encered. She was dressed in a gold-trimmed robe. On her neck was a single strand of beautiful pearls. I recognized them as Mrs. Henninggwyn's. Maryella had borrowed them, then because their owner couldn't wear them for the performance, as she was playing the part of boy. Galatea's eyes were on the floor, penative. She came slowly to the pedestal on which I stood. She knelt. She looked up. She held her pose for a long time without saying a word—without expressing a whispered wish that I would come to life. Maryella was worless. "What's the trouble?" inquired the coach, who stood, book in hand, just over the foot-lights. "Miss Waite your line is." My dearest wish—" "No," she stopped him impatiently, "I know my lines. It's the statue." Her tone was full of vexation. "What the matter?" I inquired, without abandoning my attitude. "This is the same pose I've been taking every night at rehearsal ever since we be- say, "It isn't that. You are bow-legged." She spoke accusingly, as if I had made a blunder of some sort on purpose. "Oh!" "Oh!" That was a sensitive subject with me. "I didn't know there was anything criminal in being slightly curved. It really comes from strength. Lots of men are." "But no one ever saw a bow-legged status before," she argued petulantly. "I don't care personally. I suppose that lots of really estimable men have personal peculiarities; but can you imagine a sculptor creating a statue intentionally bow-legged? Why didn't you tell me?" she wailed "Why didn't you tell me?" "Well," I temporized, "I didn't think I knew you well enough for that." "the play is ruined," she declared, "Not at all." I said with as much injured dignity as I could command in white tights. "You can easily get some one else to play this part. If you look around the club you can doublebend find someone with legs like bean-poles. She knew whom I meant without She knew my explaining more particularly. "Come, people." Interrupted the coach pleasantly. "We mustn't waste time. Remember there is a lot to before we leave here this evening. "Don't be silly," she replied. "No one else could learn the part in time." "Why not try standing sideways to the audience all the time," she suggested Jim Cooper, who with his nose on and an cigarette in his mouth, the beau ideal of a Greek warrior. "I know what to do." Mrs. Hemingway came to the rescue with a practical suggestion. "You can buy a pair of those things that chorus girls wear sometimes, that chorus girls I think they are cannies." "Oh!" said several of the ladies it once, looking pointedly at Mrs. Hemingway's simply substructure. "No, I don't wear them myself," she assured them in response to the spoken question, "but I've heard that there are such things." "All right," said the coach. "Go on with the dialogue." The balance of the act was piled through somehow. I had to play several love-scenes with Maryella, but I was so acutely conscious of her criticism that I did them very badly. The only scene that I played with any enthusiasm was one in which I was supposed to wrestle with Jim Cooper in the role of the Green warrior. That turned out all ill for me because it made his head ache where I bumped it on the stage, and Maryella hovered over him like a hen with chickens all during the intermission while they were setting the stage for the third art. I got tired of listening to her sympathizing with him and went out in the auditorium by myself. I did not care to talk to any one. To criticize my acting was one thing, but to make personal remarks about the shape of my legs was going too far. I made up my mind to withdraw from the Sheridan Dramatic Club as With Bow Legal soon as the performance of "Pygmalion and Galatea" was over. I would not leave them in the lurch now as I might do and wreck the entire performance, but as soon as it would be conspicuous I would assert my dignity and resign on the ground that it took too much of my time. I amamed Maryella, but one could hardly expect me to stand for being made fun of before Jim Couper. "I think it is an awfully funny day don't you?" inquired a voice behind me. I looked around. In the aisle stood Mrs. Hemmingway, a plump sylph in the half-light of the auditorium. so apparently wanted to sit down, so made roon for her beside me. "You think it is quite funny?" I repeated interrogatively. "Yes. I did realize it so much until I saw the costumes. I didn't know you were going to be a clown." She pointed to my white face. I suppose she would have laughed herself sick at the Venus de Milo, Mrs. Hemmingway is a movie fan and her sense of humor must have been worked by this comic-fall stuff. Here I was gotten up to represent a beautiful work of the sculptor's art, and she had missed the idea entirely and thought I was meant to be funny! "The best scene," she went on humorously endeavoring to flatter me, "where you tell Maryella you love her there in the garden. It was better than Charlie Chaplin." And that scene was pure poetry! I wrote it myself, so I am sure of it. "Thank you very much for your appreciation," I said, wishing that she were a man so that I could say what I really thought. "You're no idea how your praise makes me feel." "I'm glad. I thought you were sort of blue over here all by yourself, so I decided to cheer you up. Then she added hastily for fear she had ruined the effect of her praise" "I really meant what I said though about your being funny." The dear little featherhead was trying to make me feel good! She was prompted by the instinct which makes one woman try to hold the hurts inflicted by another. I was a bear not to accept her tribute in the spirit in which it was offered. "Thanks so much," I assured her, and teaching over carelessly I patted her hand, which lay idly on her. As I did so a strong hand came down on my shoulder and, heavy man though I am, I was hoisted bodily from my seat to the aisle. "I caught you, didn't I?" hissed an angry voice. "I've suspected there was some man in the case to make my wife so crazy about acting all of a sudden.
