SAYS WOMAN IS
LOSING BEAUTY
French Expert Blames Cos-
metics, Smoking, Drink
and Late Hours.
Paris.—The days of beautiful wom-
en are numbered. Modern life, with
its cigarettes, cocktails, cosmetics, and
late hours, is slowly exterminating |
feminine beauty, according to Dr, Mar-
celle Peillon, one of the foremost wom- .
an beauty doctors and specialists of
¥rance,
Madame Peillon says: “Unless there
is an immediate reaction to all these
tendencies which destroy not only
beauty but health in general, women
who have beautiful skin, bright eyes,
red lips and vivacious temperament
will live only in novels.
“The beauties of histories were real.
France was a nation of handsome
women, the most beautiful being in
the Frankish and Gallic tribes when
cosmetics were unknown, but when
the salutary effects of bathing springs
_ were known even to animals. Medic-
inal baths, hot springs, and the na-
tural curative waters are the best aids
to beauty, along with the simple re-
gime of living that goes with the se
called cure.”
Women are rarely deceived about
their beauty, says Madame Peillon.
They apply paint and powder and
have their faces lifted; they massage
and bind and pull themselves out of
shape, when they really know that the
only aid to beauty is good blood cir-
culation, which makes clear skin, and
skin is the natural indicator and mir
wor of health and beauty.
Nature Knows Best.
No cosmetic, no cream will ever do
what the sun can do. And no fage-
lifting physician will ever provide pli-
ant muscles like physical exercise,
early sleep, early rising will do. Fa'l-
ing features, swollen veins,
cheeks, are due mainly to the life
that was lived for 30 or 40 years away
from the air, away from springs and
sunlight.
The great enemy of beauty, says
Madam Pelllon, is alcohol. After alqo-
hol comes the cigarette. The great-
est ald to beauty, on the other hand,
is exercise, which induces a good ap-
petite, then comes bathing, and Ma-
dam Peillon asserts, like most physi-
cians, that it is all important for wom-
en to have children. Few great bezu-
ties in history have been childless.
‘Woman's beauty increases as she bears
children, providing adequate care ir
‘taken,
"Not Too Late, Sisters.
The woman of today, painted and
powdered, sallow eyed, dulled by Wwte
hours, lacking in spirit and deficient
‘in blood, can overtake her beantiful
sisters of the past if she commences
now, but Mme. Peillon fears that mod-
ern life will prevent women from
‘growing in the natural way that the
“women of the past developed.
if any women are skeptical, asserts
‘Mme. Peillon, let them not go to a
‘beauty doctor, but let them for the
sake of their own curiosity and desire
to be beautiful, simply try living nat
urally for two weeks, stop smokmg,
drinking, in case they do drink, rise
early, walk bareheaded in the open
air, begin to love deeply, and Mme.
Peillon adds, since heauty is more es-
sential than anything, let them em-
brace motherhood, and their mirrors
will soon show a different fate, a
‘keener eye, brighter tresses, a brow
‘that is serene, respected, and loved.
“Big Ben” Rezulated by

: Pence and Half-Pence
London.-—*“Big I’en,” the famous
“four-dial clock that tops the great
tower of the parliament buildings, and
which is one of the largest and most
accurate clocks in the world, owes its
precision to pennies and half-penmnses.
This surprising information was
given by F. W. Dyson, the astror
omer royal.
“During the year which ended on
April 30 the clock was compare? on
288 days at the royzl observatory, and
on only 21 days did its error reach
more than one second, the maximum
being one minute four seconds,” he
-gaid.
“The controlling device consists of
‘a tray fixed about halfway down che
pendulum, and when the clock is ios-
ing slightly a heif-penny is placeé on
the tray. This makes the pendulum
vibrate slightly more quickly and
gradually brings the clock to time.
If the clock is gaining, a half-peany
or a penny is removed.

WEST PENN ELECTRIC
CUTS ACCIDENT RECORD.
For the past seven years The
West Penn Electric Company em-
ployees have been steadily reducing
accident frequency throughout the
system and this year have set a
new record low in the number of
accidents per month which tend to
cause loss of work on the part of
the company. .
In 1923, an average of sixty acci-
dents per month caused much un-
favorable comment and resulted in |
a campaign to reduce the number |
of accidents serious enough to cause |
loss of time and money. Up to and
including the year 1929, the number
was reduced to an average of only |
“thirteen per month.
For the year to date, the entire
West Penn System has had only
eighty lost time accidents, or an
‘average of ten accidents per month.
saggy |
which compares very favorably with
past averages and low figures.
During the month of August, 1930,
subsidary companies of The West
Penn Electric Company, namely,
West Penn Railways Company em-
.ploying 680 men, Wheeling Traction
. Company employing 600 men, Alle-
gheny Pittsburgh Coal Company,
500 men, and Windsor Power House
Coal Company, 450 men, operated
during the entire thirty-one day
period without the report of a single
lost time employee accident. The
total force of 2230 employees work-
ed approximately 485,898 man hours
in the generation and distribution of
a dangerous commodity, the mining
of bituminous coal, and the opera-
tion of electric railways and auto-
. mobile buses.
The Allegheny Pittsburgh Coal
. Company accomplished the months
i
of July and August without the re.
port of a single accident serious in
extent to cause loss of time. In
addition, the West Penn Railways
Company, employing an average of
680 men, has had only four acci-
dents causing lost time during the
seven months of the present year.
Such a noteworthy job of acci-
dent prevention can be compared
with any public utilities company
record in the entire country, it is
believed and West Penn officials can
point with pride at the record of
their employees.
SURVEY SHOWS SCARCITY
OF FEED FOR CATTLE
Securing adequate feed for live-
stock will likely prove to be a prob-
lem in a number of Pennsylvania
counties this winter, judging from a
survey made on August 20, by the
Federal State Crop Reporting Serv-
ice,
While a surplus of hay is indi-
cated in more than two-thirds of the
available
counties, a deficiency of corn is ap-
parent in all excepting 13 counties.
In fact, in only seven counties does
the visible supply of corn promise
to be in excess of local needs.
There will also be a deficiency of
oats, especially in the south central
and extreme eastern sections of the
Commonwealth.
The most fortunate feature of the
feed situation is the amount of hay
in Pennsylvania. With
the exception of New York State,
Pennsylvania produces on the aver-
age more hay per animal unit than
any other important livestock State.
The average for the past five years
was 2.28 tons per animal unit, com-
pared to 1.70 in Ohio, 1.42 in Illinois,
‘and 1.06 in Towa.

THE DEER PROBLEM

PREPAREDNESS
IN BUSINESS
By R. S. HECHT,
American Bankers Association.
My observations for many years,
both as an employee and as an execu:
tive, have convinced me that the rea
son some men and women go ahead
and others do not is that some keep
themselves constantly prepared to ac-
cept and fulfill larger duties and re-
sponsibilities as they offer, and some
do not.
Grant, as we must, that there is a
i certain element of luck in the condi-
tions under which opportunity for
promotion comes to different men and
women, we nevertheless must also see
that it is each individual’s own state
of preparedness which determines his
ability to seize opportunity if and
when it comes, and having seized it,
te succeed in meeting the greater de-
mands which it inevitably places upon
him,
Real advancement never means go-
ing ahead to easier tasks, but always
to harder ones. Opportunity for ad-
vancement is worthless unless in ac-
cepting it you are able to carry with
you the abilities and qualifications that
prepare you to meet the heavier exac-
tions that are an inherent part of op-
portunity.
it is far better to go into action in
the fleld of enlarged responsibility
prepared and qualified, rather than '
Tk |
that you and the institution you
for shall be exposed to the hazard of
sponsibilities after having assumed
them.
The new spirit of all business seeks |
to prepare its people in advance | oy; dividual workers and the eus-
through education for the higher
duties it holds in store for them.
Bank Bandits Active
The Seitest aamiber of bandit raids
on American banking ever recorded
in the figures of the protective depart-
ment of the American Bankers Asso-
ciation were reported during the six
months ending last February. Bank
i
members of the association reported .
for investigation 311 forgery cases, 107 |
holdup robberies, 16 burglaries, 2
sneak thefts and 8 mortgage swindles
while non-member banks, numbering
less than half the total enrolled in the
association, suffered 86 holdup robber-
ies and 9 burglaries, non-members be-
ing burglarized or held up once for
every 89 banks, as compared with once
for every 164 member banks. The as-
sociation detective agents caused the
arrest of 143 of the 236 bank crimi-
nals apprehended during the period
covered.
The association’s report on these
conditions urges support of the move-
ment to provide city police depart-
ments with radio-equipped cruising
automobiles which have proved par-
ticularly effective in Cleveland and
Detroit in the broadcasting of alarms
THE INDIVIDUAL YET
NEEDED BY BUSINESS
By JOHN G. LOI G. LONSDALE
President American Bankers
Association
OME seem to think that the day of |
the individual in business has
passed. But they are wrong. While
the individual
may not attract
such outstanding
attention as he
did in the days of
old when institu-
tions were con-
ducted on a smal-
ler scale, he
nevertheless is to
be found in any
large corporation,
dominating the
situation, giving
orders here, co-
operating there
and shouldering the responsibility of
keeping a large group of lieutenants,
captains and privates working in uni-
son and moving forward under the
banner of progress. And all of these
are held accountable to the public be-
cause the public has entered into a
partnership agreement with the cor
poration through purchase of stock.

It is gratifying to note that our cor-
porations are giving more and more
concern to the welfare of their work-
ers. Numerous benefit organizations
have been formed, opportunities of-
fered for advancement of education
and position, hospital service estab-
lished and insurance and retirement
pensions provided.
This general humanitarian move
ment in reality is the outgrowth of
analysis, which has disclosed the need
of improving the well-being of our in-
dividual workers, realizing at the
same time that our institutions will
benefit.

There are many mammals in our

herds increased, but the food . for
them did not. ;
For two years the commission has
tried to reduce the surplus by per-
mitting the killing of does. This year
the same policy will be pursued and
100,000 ‘special deer licenses will be
offered for sale. This will be in ad-
dition to the regular licenses for
antlered deer and for a different
season. It is expected that from
25,000 to 30,000 does will be dispos-
ed of in this way.
Some advocate the abrogation of
the buck law entirely but the com.
mission and most sportsmen of the
State do not approve. “The build-
ing up of the Pennsylvania deer
supply from practically nothing in
1907, to the present surplus stock
is an unanswerable argument in fa-
vor of the buck law.”

remote. But many of these great crea-
tures were at one time roaming over
the forests, mountains, and plains of
Britain, for in those far-off days our
country was joined to Europe, so that
many animals in their treks found
shelter here.
At one time the hippopotamus was
fairly common in and on the borders
of our rivers. This huge creature was |
to be found on most of the English
and many of the Welsh rivers south
of Lancashire and Durham. In that
distant age, known as the Pleistocene
epoch, before the glacial episodes, the
hippopotamus traveled north as far as
Yorkshire, and this animal was iden-
tical with the African species of the
present day.
In the earlier Pliocene epoch a gi-
gantic swine, as large as the tapir,
reached England, and it may have lin-
gered on to the time when man first
took up his abode here, but with this
exception the wild boar is the only
wild pig that ..c¢c know to have fre-
quented this country. The latter re-
mained in the great forests to the end
of the Seventeenth century, the last re-
corded specimen being killed in Staf-
fordshire in 1683.—London Tit-Bits.
