Whu a Woman's Tongue Is
More Eloquent Than Beauty
1 fimM
Beauty may fade nwny. but who
ever heard of a woman's tongue
wearing out?
Tho persuasive tongue outweighs
tho nagging tongue.
Tho last organ to be stilled in a
dying woman is her tongue.
The woman with an active or
gan of speech is not necessarily a
shrew.
If a man were drowning, what
would he rather see, a beautiful
face or a lively tongue that could
yell "help."
How few women are beautiful,
yet all have tongues.
Beauty is only skin deep, but a
tongue is six inches from tip to'
root.
A tongue is protected fiom the
ravages of age, but a face suffers
from the seasons.
It matters little how beautiful
she may be if she has no tongue to
say yes.
beauty with hard facts which fancy
phrases could not deny.
"What If a man were drowning." said
the tongue champlonB, "could a woman
savo him with her eyes or a smllo7 Ah,
no, 'twould bo much better If she un
leashed a scream for help "
Then, getting down to other practical
views, one of tho oral advocates pointed
out that beauty was only skin deep, where
as medical authorities will agree that
the tongue Is sK Inches or mora accord
ing to tho woman's vocabulary and
temper.
And as to durability then came tho
finishing squelch. Those who stood back
of the tongue reminded thoir hearers thnt
a tongue Is protected from the rain, tho
snow, tho sun and tho wind but a3 to
the face. It Is out In tho open and actually
gets tired from the ravages of time.
As a last effort tho affrmatlvo referred
to tho beauty of Cleopatra, but could not
show that her beauty was used to any
real advantage.
"Would a mothor havo tlmo to wrlto
nil tho reprimands when Tommy splashed
through his soup at tho table?" Just then
tho vote was taken, and It resulted In a
decided victory for those who defended tho
efficiency of the tongue. But one vote was
recorded against them.
The speakers on the affirmative side of
tho dobato, that Is. tho advocates of the
potency of woman's beauty, wero A. P.
Hausman, the Rev. Orlando T. Stewart
and C Oscar Boasley. Tho victorious
champions of tho power of tho fomlnlne
tonguo included Harold Loeb, tho Rev.

MAYOR'S OBJECTION TO SUNDAY
CONCERTS NOT 'CONSCIENTIOUS'
Says City Is Without Financial Means
to Pay for "Luxury"
Mayor Smith today explained his op
position, to making any appropriation for
free Sunday concerts by the Philadelphia
Orchestra on economic and not on con
scientious grounds. The city, he Bald,
can not afford n luxury of this kind under
present financial conditions.
4)lscussing the plan to have the city ap
propriate $15,000 for Sunday concerts to
bo given net winter, tho Mayor said:
"I have no objection on conscientious
grounds to the giving of tho concerts, but
I am opposed to the city spending 16,000
In this wny. How to find tho money Is
tho question In the way. As a matter of
fact wo have no money for such a pur
pose There Is another thought in my
mind and that Is that we have no right
to tax the many for the benefit of the
few. There Is no theatro In Philadelphia
largo enough to hold very many people,
and an appropriation or a fund for con
certs would result in using money derived
from taxing the wholo city for the pleas
uro and benefit of a comparatively small
number Those are my only grounds for
opposing tho plan to have the olty appro
priate money for this cause.y

It is largely a matter of dinner!
Soup is but one small item in the menage, but it is a significant fact that
"golden lads and lassies" dwell in the homes where Franco-American Soups are
served. The parents who are most solicitous for their children's health are precisely
those who most appreciate the splendidly nourishing quality of Franco-American
Soups.
The "French deliciousness" in these soups is not gained at the expense of
wholesomeness, In the Franco-American list are soups so light, so delicate, so
readily assimilated, and withal so substantial in food value that better "provender"
for the youngsters is unimaginable.
The capable manager of the home also appreciates the ''preparedness" of these
soups the fact that they are Jinlihcd ready to serve except tor the heating.
