CRUSADE AGAINST
USE OF POWDER AND
PAINT BY SCHOOLGIRLS
Teachers Club Plans Vigorous
Campaign to Stop Pupils
From Attempts to "Sup
plement Nnture"
FALSE AID TO BEAUTY
A c i"in agsinEt the misuse of powder
ami ni illation of pilnt, en though done
with the skill of a Rembrandt. hn been
Inaugurated by the Teachers' Club of Phila
delphia at Its monthly meeting. The ob
Jectlves of the club are the school girls
of the city, who, the teachers say, are
misapplying their decorative talent. Th
growing number of "painted beauties" at
tending tha high schools and even lower
classes has forced the teachers. In self
protection, to employ direct and Indirect
means to combat the scourge of vanity.
"We must act In -elf protection." was
the plea mado by Miss Louise Hnselar,
teacher of history at the Olrtv High
school, who is lead.ng the tsnguird of
the movement "Some day thfse young
girls who think they beautify themselves
lth liquid powder and rouge will become
tenchers They will reflect on the teach
ing body They men cnll them painted
beauties 1)1 In turn be able to Influence
tho girls under them. We. tvlay must ue
our Influence to stamp out this Iniquitous
custonf "
The use of powder and paint la an ad
vertleement of vanity: that Is a sufficient
condemnation, was asserted by Miss H&se
lar She ho endeavors to disguise her face
flaunts before the public tho fact that she
Is trying to beautify herself "Vo wonder
men hesltnte to bestow c-pial political
rights," Mlsa Haselar says, ' if women are
so silly about tho use of powder Men can
hardly be blamed for this deserved scorn.
"If the girls cannot be nppealed to from
an nrtlatlc vlow. try n reach their com
plexions through their pocket books. The
average buslneia man will have none of
the decorated damsels In his front office;
their chances for obtaining a Job are mini
mized lu proportion to the pouder and palnf
they use,
"Mothers aro 'slackers' when It comos to
doing their duty, as shown by the cotinte
nances of their dir-ghters No self. refect.
Ing mother would permit her daughter to
disguise her face us so many of th- Modern
girls, from eleven years up, are dolri' today.
"Most mothers think they have fulfilled
their maternal duty when they shoo their
children off to school However, tho shnul
dern of the teachers are braced for the added
responsibility."
The ways and means to the desired end
were nct discussed Remonstrance with the
indlvlduil sinner wns advised an the best
means Talks In assembly on the vulgarity
of attempting to supplement nature were
recommended, hut never when young men
are nlso present The oung men would
piobably mock the girls and possibly not
show the proper appreciation for the under
rated damsel Thereby theaieslred effect
would be prevented.
"Advise the poor deluded damsel to wash
her face." was a bit of direct advice handed
down by the speaker "insist that the
shining morning faces of the girls be whole
Home, sweet and clean."
How far the direct action on the girls
will be employed by tho teachers has not
been decided But the deceptive paint and
powder must be banished from the school
room until eventually the germ-reeking pow
del puff and rougn stick will become val
liable antiques for clvlo museums. Miss
Haselar says

rnATTER TXIV (I'onMnued)
ASHINOTON won't do anything
hat can bo don when there are
thousands of American women In the same
danger? What steps can tho Government
take, with the fleet on Its way to Vera Cruz,
with the army mobilizing, and with diplo
matic relations suspended? Thoso Oreasers
are filling their Jails with our pfonio
rounding 'em up for tho day of tho big
break nnd the State Department knows
It. No, IxmKorlo saw It all coming he's no
fool He's (cot her, sho's In there trapped."
Blaie took tho speaker by tho shoulder
and faced him about. "Ixolc here," said
he, "I'm beglnnln' to get wise to you 1
believe you're the man in tho case." When
Dave nodded, he vented his amazement In
a long whistle After a moment he asked,
"Well, why did you want me to come here
alone, ahead of the others?"
"Because 1 want you to know tho whole
Inside of this thing so that you can get
busy when I'm goite; because I want to bor
row what money you have "
"What you atmtn' to pull off?" Blaze In
quired, suspiciously.
"I'm going to And her and bring her out."
"You? Why. Dave, you can't get through.
Th's Is a Job for tho soldiers."
But Dave hardly seemed to hear him.
"You must start things moving at once."
he said, urgently. "Spread the news, get
the story Into the papers, notify the author
ities Get eve,ry Influence at work, from
here to headquarters; get your Senator nnd
the Governor of your State at work Ells
worth will help you. And now give me your
last dollar."
Blaze emptied his pockets, shaking his i
shaggy head the while. La Ferla Is a hun
dred and fifty miles In," he remonstrated
"By rail from Pueblo, yes But It's barely
a hundred, straight from here "
"You ain't got a chance, single-handed
You're crazy to try It"
The effect of these words was startling,
for Dave laughed harshly. '"Craz)' Is the
word," he agreed "It's a Job for a lunatic,
ami that's me. Yes, I've got bad blood In
me. Blaze bad blood and I'm taking It
back whero 1 got It But listen!" He turned
a sick, colorless face to his friend "They'll
whittle a cross for Longorlo it I do eet
through."
"I'm most tempted to go wlUi you," Blazo
stammered, uncertainly
"No. Somebody has to slay here and stir
things up. If we had twenty men like you
we might cut our way In and out. but there's
no time to organize, and, anyhow, the Gov
ernment would probably stop us. I've got a
hunch that I'll make It. If I don't why.
It's all right "
The two men shook hands llngeringly,
awkwardly; then Blaze managed to wish
his friend, luck "If you don't come back,"
he said, with a peculiar catch In his voice,
"I reckon there'B enough good Texans left
to follow your trail. I'll sure look forward
to It."
Dave took the river bank to Sangrn de
Crlsto, where, by means of the dilapidated
ferry, he gained the Mexican s.de. Once
across, he rode straight up toward the vil
lage of Romero. When challenged by an
undersized soldier he merely spurred Mon
trosa forward, eylrtg the sentry so grimly
that the man did no more than finger his
rifle uncertainly, cursing under his breath
the overbearing nlrs of all gringos. Nor
did the rider trouble to make the slightest
detour, but cantered the full length of
Romero's dusty street, the target of more
than one pair of hostile eyes. To those who
saw him. soldiers and civilians alike. It
was evident that this stranger had business,
and no one felt called upon to question Its
nature. There are men who carry an air
more potent than a bodyguard, and Dave
Lawjwan one of these, Before the village
had thoroughly awakened to his coming he
was gone, without a xlanco to the right or
left, without a word to any one.
As the afternoon heat subsided, Montrosa
let herself out Into a freer gait and began
to cover the distance rapidly, heading due
west through a land of cactus and dagger,
of thorn and barb and bramble.
The roads were unfenced, the meadows
desolate; the huts were frequently un
tenanted. Ahead the alty burned splendidly,
and the sftnset grew more brilliant, more
dazzling, until it glorified the whole mean,
thirsty, cruel countryside.
Dave's eyes were set upon that riot of
blazing colors, hut for the time It failed to
thrill him. In that welter of changing hues
nnd tints ho saw only led. Redi That was
the color of blood ; It stood for passion, lust,
violence; and It was a fitting badge of color
for this land of revolutions and alarms. At
first he saw little else except the hint of
black despair to follow. But there was gold
In the sunset, too the yellow gold of ran
som 1 That was Mexico red and yellow,
blood and gold, lust and license. Once the
rider's fancy began to work in this fashion,
It would not rest, and as the sunset grew
In splendor he found In it richer meanings.
Red was the color of a woman's lips yes.
nd a woman's hair The deepening blue
of the high sky overhead, was the hue of a
certain woman's eyes. A warm, soft breeze
out of the west beat Into his face, and he
remembered how warm and soft Alatre's
breath had been upon his cheek.
The woman of his desires was yonder,
where those colors warred, and she was
mantled In red and gold and purple 'for his
coming The thought aroused him; the
tense of his unworthlness vanished, the
blight fell from him: ha felt only a throb

"Do you believe such stories?" Alalre In
quired, with some amusement.
"Um-m not altogether But, all the
same, I think It Is time we were going
home."
This Is home, for me, Dolores."
"Yes. but now that war "
'There Isn't any war, and there won't be
any However. If you are nervous I'll
send you bark to Las Palmas at once "
"Glory of God ' It would be the end of

Instantly as an American, for I have the
appearance and the culture You can
Imagine what would happen to roe. They
would tear me from tho train. It was
nothing except General Longorto's soldiers
that brought us safely through from Nuevo
Pueblo."
'Then I'm glad that he Insisted upon
sending them with us. Now tell the ranch
hands to put no faith In these ridiculous
stories. If they wish the truth let them
ask General longorlo; he will bo here to
day and quiet their fears."
"You think ho Intends to pay us for our
cattle?"
"Yes."
Dolores pondeied a moment. "Well, per
haps ho docs It I . not his money For
tint matter, ho would give nil Mexico If
you asked It. Tset His love consumes him
lll.a i fever "
Alulre stirred unenslly; then she rose
nnd went to nn open window, which looked
out Into tho tiny patio with Its trickling
fountain nnd Its rank, untended plants.
"Why do you Insist thut he loves me?" she
asked. "All Mexicans aro gallant and pay
nhsurd compliments. It's Just a way they
have. He has never spoken n word that
could give offense" As Dolores said
nothing, she went on, hesitatingly, "I can't
very wen refuse to sco him, for I don't
possess even a receipt to show that he took
those cattle."
"Oh. you must not offend him," Dolores
ngreed, hastily, "or we'd never leave Mex
ico alive." With which cheering announce
ment the housekeeper heaved a deep sigh
and went nbout her duties with a gloomy
face.
Longorlo arrived thnt afternoon, nnd
Alalre received him In the great naked liv
ing room of the Imclenda, with her best
attempt at formality But her coolness
served not In the least to chill his fervor.
