Richmond Board Will
Shorten School Term
Special to The Times.
RICHMOND, Ind., June 28.—Decision to
short the school term In this city by

schoo. board yesterday.
Adoption of a rental plan for the En
glish department to apply to the English
classics, also was decided upon. Accord
ing to this plan, pupils entering the
English department will pay ten per cent
of the cost of the classics. This ten per
cent will cover the rental of the books

mounting too high: The system will be

The Well Dressed Woman
BY GLORIA SWANSON.
Star in Paramount Picture*.
Parasols remind one of butterflies —
they are so lovely, so delicate and so ap
parently inconsequent!aL Ah! but there
you make a serious mistake. Have you
thought of what your complexion would
be like after a season of broiling suns If
unprotected by anything save our ab
surdities of hats, brimless, turned back
from the face or with a transparent
brim ?
Grandmother knew better. She wore
a sunbonnet, a veil and even a mask be
fore she ventured from the shrouded
coolness of her parlor.
Os course we do not go in for the same
things grandmother did. We desire
neither to look like a pale lily, to prove
our desirable asceticism by the smallness
of our waists and appetites, not to be
able to faint on all momeiteons occasions.
However, that next to nature stuff
may be overdone, and one summer of
brutal and steady exposure will thicken,
darken and age your skin to an extent
that will require two or/three years’ care
to remedy.
So, perhaps, a parasol Is a real friend
instead of a frivolous accessory.
This new one of mine is particularly
acceptable. Outside It is an opaque
dark blue silk that will really shield and
protect you, while Inside It is a_ soft.
GOODBY ALIBI;
MEN PLENTIFUL
Women No Longer Outnumber
Opposite Sex, Says Censor.
WASHINGTON, June 28.—Not even
the census ztJftUtlcan has pity for old
maids.
It long has been a popular’supposition
—particularly among spinsters that
there were more women then men in the
United States, from which a person was
supposed to draw his own conclusions.
Now comes the brutal census statisti
cian, who announces that on the basis of
the 1920 figures there are in the country
2,090,152 more wielders of the razor than
of the powder puff.
In but one section of the country Is the
reverse true. New England has 26 per
cent advantage In favor of the deadly
sex, which perhaps accounts for the fact
that tho New England spinster predomi
nates in fiction and drama. The national
capital, however, beats this record, with
a predominance of thirteen females to
each 100 of the population.
Matrimonial publications will hear
with interest that for male circulation
the West .ffers a fertile field.
The Rocky Mountain and Pacific coast
divisions have gone over the top with
115.7 and 113.9 per cent respectively in
favor of the males.
Not content with being an Iconoclast
for spinsters, the census man declares
that ever since the foundation of the re
public males have predominated. Tba
variation has been of slight growth In
100 years, with 103.3 per cent in 1810 and
104 6 per cent in 1920.
To immigration is ascribed part of the
difference in sex, hut !t is pointed out
that the variation has existed even pi pe
riods when immigration was at low ebb.
The preponderance of males In 1920 ap
pears for every State except Massachu
setts. Rhode Island, New York, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and
Alabama. The total for the country Is
given as 53,900,876 males and 51,810,244
females.

Mystery Orchestra
Puzzles Operators
GALVESTON, Texas', June 28.—Some
where along this gulf coast is a “mys
tery” orchestra whose syncopated strains
seriously threaten the morale of soldiers
aboard ships In Galveston harbor.
The ‘mystery” music comes by wire
less, the jazzy strains being snatched
out of the air by means of the ordinary
ship's radio receiving apparatus. A steel
guitar, a violin, cornet, saxophone and
piano comprise it. Between 2 and 5 p.
m. on week days and around 0 o'clock
Sundays appear to be the favorite times
for concerts.
According to wireless experts, the mu
sicians evidently assemble at the home
of aome wireless telepuone expert whose
transmitter broadcasts their music In a
radio of about 500 miles. The strains are
“picked up” on a wave length of about
2,000 meters, within the scope of most
ship radio apparatus.
The "orchestra of the air” first was
heard about a month ago, according to
experts here, and so seducing are its
strains that work loading or discharging
cargo aometlmes is jeopardized when an
impromptu concert begins.

CRAPS SHOOTING
CLIMBS SOCIAL
SCALE BY LEAPS
‘Rolling the Bones' Becomes
Drawing Room Accomplish
ment; Supersedes Poker.
NEW YORK, June 28.—One of the re
markable developments of the war is the
rise In the social scale of craps shooting,
which has been elevated from a back
alley scrimmage to a front parlor pas
time.
In the army many young men who had
never rolled the hones before, learned to
groom the gallopers, just as they be
came initiated In the mysteries of K. P.
for the first time and became adept at
tending the shrine of the kitchen sink.
In the minds of foreigners the dice seem
to have superseded the eagle as the Ameri
can emblem, for some of the men would
have been willing to shoot with the
Helnles for the Hindenburg line without
using any ammunition.
So at home, as African golf came to be
looked upon as a necessary form of re
laxation for the boys In the trenches, the
Ivory cubes have developed almost an
odor of sanctity, and a crap game is
looked upon now by even the best boot
legging circles as a mild dissipation, like
eating Welsh rarebit. Mere mention of
the game in a play or at a party evokes
screams of laughter and crowns the men
tioner as the wit of the evening.
.Various first aids to a more perfect
virtuosity in handling the pretty pets
have come to the fore now that crap
skeoting is a drawing-room accomplish
ment and no longer an occasion for vul
gar razor display. There has recently
been invented, “a magic fluid for poison
ing dice,” though devotees of the art pro
teased there was nothing so good as the
hand to bring those babies to a healthy
glow. However, research by students of
the game disclosed that the “magic fluid”
was a colorless liquid to be used In mak
ing transparent dice more amenable to
reason.
Transparent dice, tastefully tinted In
various colors, were designed so that the
eye could see through them and make
sure that no one In a cautious moment
had slipped a little plug of lead into the
cubes, thereby making fate more subject
to control. In the brunette circles where
dice are most rampant transparent ones
have been a check on the homicide rate.
But the “magic fluid” has been devised
to put a spell on them.
A short hole is bored in the side of a
transparent cube and a drop of the prec
ious fluid poured sparingly from the
bottle. This hardens in the cavity and,
being crystal clear, assumes the same
color as the material around it, so that
the cube Is seemingly as innocent as ever.
But this plug Is heavier than the other
material, so that the wielder of the dice
can make the game almost a mathemati
cal certainty—unless he's caught at it.

SEASONABLE BEAUTY AID
We find you can bring out the
beauty of your hair to its very best
advantage by washing it with can
throx. It makes a very simple, in
expensive shampoo, which cleanses
the hair and scalp thoroughly of all
the dandruff, dirt and excess oil,
leaving a wonderfully clean, whole
some feeling. After its use you will
find that the hair dries quickly and
evenly, is never streaked in appear
ance and is always bright, soft and
fluffy; so fluffy, in fact, that it looks
more abundant than it is, and so
soft that arranging It becomes a
pleasure. Just use a teaspoonful of
canthrox, which you can get from
any good druggist’s, dissolve It in a
cup of hot water; this makes a full
cup of shampoo liquid, enough so
it is easy to apply It to all the hair
instead of just the top of the head.
