REAL BEAUTY IS
WRITER'S QUERY
Pageant Editor Receives Let
ter Raising Question of
100 Per Cent Article.
TVhat is real beauty?
That it the question raised by Miss
Portia Morris, apartment 9. ISS E
Vermont St., in a letter received by
the Times Pageant Editor, concerning
the qualities of the representative In
dianapolis girl who is going to At
lantic City in September.
“Beauty to me,” Miss Morris writes,
“symbolises not only facial expression,
but in every sense of the word it
stands for a fine lovely body and a
splendid mind, for these are the
things that count for true beauty.
"To me a g.rl who can play a
square game of tennis or one who
can swim across the river, with firm,
sure strokes, is a real pal. If this
same girl would befriend a homeless,
hungry - dog, or if she could find hap;
pfness in children's voices.'she woilld
surely be a princess. I have been
looking for just such a girl.
“When I see the average girl of to
day, all clothes and makeup, when I
watch her drain the wine glass, per
haps smokes, and when I hear her
affected slangy talk—l wonder if this
is what those silent men In Flanders
died for.
“The world is well tired of the
•flapper era’ Surely she commands
little respect, so would it not be a
glorious thing If the ideal would be
the girl I’ve been watching for so
eagerly?
“I have seen her through the
mists, crying to this mad world ‘to
accept and forget.’ There she stands
even as our own Lady of Liberty,
wholesome in body and soul, noble in
character and face—where lingers a
smile for all mankind.
“Behold, through this same gray
mist of the early dawn, we see that
long low street with its pitiful mounds
and its heart-breaking crosses.
“Suddenly, on the horizon, we see
the figure of a woman with out
stretched arms and upon looking closer
we see that flaming red cross. Along
comes the first faint breeze of the
morning, our vision fades, but the
poppies in Flanders seem to nod and
smile and we know they are glad.
Glad, these honored dead, to have
gone ’smilin’ thru’ that America's
womanhood might live.
“Again I see in a mad, dancing
crowd the littie painted doll dash to
a table, toss a glass in the air and
cry', ‘Who cares? On with the dance!’ I
Then I see our flag high unfurling in
the breeze and In the midst of those
beloved Stars and Stripes. I see the
face of that famous ‘Mother of all the
World.’
“Which shall It he?” she asks.

Granma Hootieowl walked out on

I and visit with us? It looks like >t

S Granpa Hootieowl dropped down his
little rope ladder and Raggedy Ann
and Raggedy Andy were soon in tho
Hootieowl beech tree home.
“Wa_must have some tea first thing
ot all,” sad Granma Hootieowl when
Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy had
taken comfortable cha.rs.
"Which would you rather have with
your tea, field mice or June bugs?*’

Raggedy Andy looked at Raggedy

Pale gray and bisque are the most
popular shades for s.lk frocks during
these hot days and they are shown in

Ann said, “Granma Hootieowl, we do
not feel very, very hungry, but if you
have some we would prefer to have
honiy cakes w.th nice white icrng on
them, or doughnuts with powdered
sugar on them.”
This made GrShma Hootieowl look
m bewilderment at Granpa Hootieowl. j
"Dear me. suz,” said Granma Hoo
tleowli “I never even heard of those
things.” Granp Hootieowl could only |
scratch his head, for he did not know
what to say.
“I tell you what we will do, Branma
and Granpa Hootieowl. v said Rag
gedy Ann. "It will be lots and lota
of fun. If we pretend that you two
have come to see Raggedy Andy and
me, and we will get the tea ready and
fix everything.”
Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy
went out Into the Hotieowl kitchen
and Raggedy Ann whispered to Rag
gedy Andy, “Let’s give Granma and
Granpa Hootieowl a surprise.”
“Yes, let’s do.” said Raggedy Andy.
“We will wish for soda water.
That’s a great deal better than tea,
don’t you think?”
“Uh, hu,” agreed Raggedy Andy.
So Raggedy Ann wished for ice
! cream soda water while Raggedy
Andy wished for sandwiches and cook
j ies and doughnuts and ladyfingers and
cream puffs.
My wasn’t Granpa and Granma
Hootieowl surprised when they tasted
the nice things. “We will never eat
Fieldmice after this,” laughed Granma
Hotieowl. “But we wilr have to,”
Granpa Hootieowl said, “for, after
Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy
leave we won’t be able to get such
goodies. ’’
“Oh, yes, you will, Granpa Hootie
owl,” said Raggedy Ann. “Raggedy
Andy and I have wished that you
have a cupboard In your kitchen
which will always be filled with ev
erything we now are eating, so when
ever you have company you can al
ways get whatever you wish, without

Fashion Hints
By MARIE BRAINARD
PARIS—The season for buying furs
Is here, although the weather is warm.
Muskrat, Hudson seal, nftole, Persian
lamb and raccoon are very popular.
The seal coats are - three-quarter
length. The fact that they are some
what shorter than those of last year
Is due to the longer dresses.
PARIS —A popular style in hate this
fall will have the wide, ftfiring brim.
It seems that the small hat Is doomed
for the present, at any rate. I saw
a queer woman’s hat recently. It
had a rubber band to 50 under the
chin and hold it on.
NEW YORK —Sixteen dressmakers
were asked If the short skirt were
really gone. All replied In the affir
mative. But three predicted it would
be back within a year.

Squeeze the juice of two lemons

pint of the best freckle and tan

Massage this sweetly fragrant
lemon lotion into the face, neck,

how freckles and blemishes bleach

Fresh Vegetable Salad
By BERTHA E. SHAPLEIGH
Cooking Authority for REA Service and ,
Columbia University.
During the summer fresh vegetables should be eaten every day.
Sometimes they taste better cold.
Just a few things are well to avoid —for Instance, a combination
of beets and tomatoes, or carrots and tomatoes.
Try the following:
1 cup cooked green string 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
cut in pieces 1 cup shaved raw cabbage
1 oup cooked carrots, cut In cubes 1 head lettuce
or strips _ V 2 cup French dressing
1 cup potatoes, cut in Cubes 1 hard cooked egg
It Is well to serve such a salad arranging each vegetable by Itself.
Then If there Is any one which some member of the family does not
like, that vegetable can be avoided.
Chop the egg and add to the French dressing. Either put a slice
or two of onion In the salad Itself or chop it finely and add to the
dressing.
If possible, arrange thfese vegetables on a platter. Place first the
lettuce, then the cabbage; on this arrange the piles of vegetables and
over all pour the dressing.
