THE LOVELIEST WOMAN.
A great-grandmother of
eight, living in Minneapolis, has
been awarded a $1,000 prize in
a field of 20,000 as the “love-
liest woman.” The award was
made by a board of experts, on
photographs alone. Her face
as it appears in the public
prints, is lovely, and from it
" shines out a lovely soul.
FOR Many young women are
pretty, but the lovely women
--- are those who have passed the
To Governor O. Max Gardner half century mark. The older
of North Carolina goes the ere- they grow the lovelier they be-
dit for the most, and perhaps come, and that loveliest of all
the only constructive substitute love, mother love, enehances
for the idiocy of tree sitting, their loveliness.
He says:
“I doubt if history records a
stranger device for the enter-
tainment and pleasure of those
participating.

Farm relief has been falling
for a week now and everybody
can go to work now. That in-
cludes the president and gover-
nors.
The farmers know that all
the farm relief will come out of
the farmer’s hide sooner or
later.

We’ve opened our daily each
morning with the firm expecta-
tion of seeing the headlines tell
of a tree sitter who has been
eater by the squirrels.
Maybe the long discussion for
a “dry” country caused the
drouth. Everybody got to
thinking dry and it was dry.
Something switched their line
of thought, and now it is wet.
Hoover had to give up his va-
cation to talk farm relief. If he

Our own theory is that this i

was a clearer demonstration of
revision to type. Our greatest
fear is that to plant more trees
would be only to invite more
tree sitting.

THE SILVER LINING.
Not that we care whether
skirts go up or down—well, not
much, anyway—but it’s inter-
esting to learn that about 400.-
000 women, members of the New
York State Federation of Wo-
men’s Clubs, have been on
strike against long skirts. The
Garment Retailers of America
heard this the other day from
Mme. Helene Volka. who is offi-
cial stylist for the women’s
federation—and a great light
broke over them. “We have
refrained from buying new
frocks,” said Mme. Volka. “as
a. Dsotest against having foisted
upon' us styles becoming only to
the young and slender.” So it
appears, women are now to
make styles, instead of styles
making women. If the styles
“dictated by Paris” don’t suit,
the girls will go on wearing
their old dresses a bit longer—
and that’s something a veteran
husband and frock-provider can
cheer.

Americans consumed 1,382,243,-
387 pounds of candy in 1929.
That was 117,000,000 pounds

J,s. responsible for the increase.
They say more candy is eaten
by people in the evenings while
“listening in” over the radio
than at any other time of day.
Candy is also standard equip-
ment for the young fellow who
takes nis gil l to the movie
shows, and so widespread has
the candy habit become that it’s
nothing unusual to see people
who once reached into their
pocket for a chew of tobacco
now drawing forth a piece of
candy to munch on instead.
Peanuts and popcorn also show
increased sales. In fact, it
seems that our whole life ha?
changed and that the things we
once thought fit only for kids
are now’ the things we are en-
joying most. But it’s a good
sign. Anything that helps' to
Jceep us from worrying over
gray hairs is a blessing, no
matter if it does come in the
shape and form of a sack of
peanuts or a piece of candy.
