BAPTIST PASTOR
RAPS BAN PLACED
AGAINST DANCING
Progressive Columbus Minister
Declares Church and Grave
yard No Longer Belong f
Together.
Columbus, Ohio, June 19.
"Churches should not place a ban
on dancing. Men cannot be made
good that way," said Rev. A. E.
Cowley, Capti.t minister.
Those who want to dance will
' dance," continued Rev. Dr. Cowley,
; "irrespective of its nature or the ban.
, Those who do not dance would view
, the lifting of the ban as condoning
j'of the dance.
I "The church and the graveyard no
J- longer belong together.
( "Christianity never has been op-
posed to the God-given instinet for
" recreation. It does insist that peo
ple must distinguish between recrea
tion and dissipation.
i
"Americans are wearing out their
nerves through running after cheap
amusements. Commercialism, pro
fessionalism and immorality are
prostituting the play Instinct for
gain.
"The church 'must do something
to remold amusements. Shorter
hours for the worker will prove a
curie, instead of a blessing, unless
men can be shown how to rightly
spend their leisure time."
English Experimenting
On Bamboo Substitute
In Wood Pulp Shortage
London,, June 19. Experiments
are being conducted at the Britsh
' Imperial institute for the purpose of
obtaining a satisfactory substitute
for wood pulp. Bamboo is said to
have given the most satisfactory re
sults and to give better promises
than any other of the substitutes
tested.
It has been suggested that one
way out of the difficulty would be for
consumers in each country to form
organizations on the lines of the
British Cotton Growing association
for the purpose of encouraging and
developing the production of pulp in
various parts of the world.
At the present time England is
' practically dependent on Norway for
supplies of the needed pulp. In a
single week recently, according to
figures obtained by the American
Chamber of Commerce in London,
7,866 tons of mechanical wet pulp
were imported from Norway, whilst
only 490 tons were obtained from
Canada.
Gunman Seeks Job In

.Jersey City! N. J., June 19.
, Christian Larsen of Jersey City
may be what' "a certain famous
statesman would call a "forward
' ' looking" man.
About to go to slate prison for 15
years, they tell him, Larsen is look
ing around for a job when he comes
out.
i Experience, the Jersey City man
I believes, has fitcd him for the mov
ing pictures. ,
I'm a better gunman than any-
i body in the movies or anybody in
this jail," Christian writes to the
New Jersey manager of one of the
film companies. "I can beat that
guy Hart on the drop of a gun. If
' you don't believe me, go to Fourth
street. Union Hill, and ask the fel
low that owns that store. Ask the
. cop in East New York how I got
' tway from him.
"Now I must go to state prison,
maybe for IS years. Let me know
if I can go to work for you at $500
a week when I come out, because if
you don't want me I want to write
to the other moving picture com
panies. Maybe ybu won't have to
wait 15 years. I might break out.
Write quick."
Keep Sabbath Holy;
Make Your Business
Pay, Says Babson
Boston, June 19. Going to church
pays in business!
Religion; to put it another way,
is an economic assetl
' "Remember that thou keep holy
' the Sabbath day," taught by Moses
centuries ago, pays today despite
' the scoffers.
t-' Cardinal O'Connell in (a. recent
pastoral letter, Bishop Lawrence in
many sermons, Bishop Hughes all
great churchmen have been telling
. people of the United States that
going to church brings material as
well as spiritual benefits.
Now comes Rover W. Babson, a
specialist in cold figures, a statisti
. cian who makes figures fail to lie
- and proves by those self-same
figures that the churchgoer, the man
, who brings religion into his daily
'.life is bettff off financially than his

wood proved a "boomerang" for
seven high school lads here recently.
The "barrage" grew out of East
wood's efforts to suppress cigarette
smoking in the school yard.
r The fines of the "belligerents"
ranged from $25 to $200 each.
32 Years On South Side;
Has Been Downtown Once
Police Captain at Cudahy's Satisfied With Home As
His World Dislikes Automobiles.
Thirty-two years in Omaha
proper, with but one visit to the
downtown district and that to the
court house to look after his prop
erty interests is the boast of W. J.
McGuire, 4115 R street, captain of
police at the Cudahy packing plant.
Nor does the captain feel cha
grined that he has not seen more of
the world particularly the imme
diate surroundings.
His Home Is His World.
,From a cozy and comfortable
heme, enlightened in family spirit
by four boys and four girls, to his
duties at the packing plant has been
Captain McGuire's world since his
migration here from Kansas in 1888.
"Vhat's outside of a home?" he
asks.
"My family is my life. What
more enjoyment can a person have
than to be among his children?"
Regarding amusements, picnic or
automobile rides, Captain McGuire
has this to say:
"There's plenty of amusement
about the home. Every married
man knows that. And it's all one
grand picnic, if you make it so.
He's Off Autos Forever.
"Automobile rides? Man, deliver
me. I'll walk." ,
Here the venerable police captain
told of his first, last and only auto
mobile ride he had ever experienced.
"It was last fall. My son induced
me' to step in the front pew with
him. No, it wasn't like the by-gone
one-hoss shay. We rode somewhere
out west and before I was aware of
it, he said we had traveled 15 miles.
I thought we were iot far out. I
told him I'd get out and start walk
ing home. That's the farthest away
from home I had been since 1888.
Happy Hollow Dazzled Him.
"Then, on the way home, we
passed some high-falutin. barbeque
hall on a green lawn. There were
lots 'of bright lights dazzling my
eyes, and fairy maidens were skimp
ing lightly about the floor and
lawn with their male friends. My
son told me that was Happy Hol
low club house. I thought it was
Mickey ponovan's museum in Kan
sas City."
Captain McGuire confesses freely
that if he were detailed bv his wife
to go on a shopping tour in Omaha,
he would need a compass and a city
directory to locatt; himself.
He says he has heard of Farnam,
Douglas and Sixteenth streets, but
would need direction to fird them.
On his next wedding anniversary,
Sp
ends 45 Years in
Bathtub in Asylum;
Found 'Not Insane
Providence, R. I., June 19.
Anthony Baden Duffee spent his
days living in a bathtub. So they
put him in Butler Asylum. They
kept him there 45 years. Now they
have released him, the court find
ing that Anthony was not insane
at all.
Durfee is 75 years old. He left
his bathtub to talk to a reporter.
"You will have to excuse me,"
said he politely, "as I am just from
the bath. I am tired of living in an
asylum. Forty-five years is enough,
don't you think? I don't know
where I shall live yet, but shall let
my relatives help me choose a
place."
Attorney Edward J. Noons, who
fought the case against Durfee, says
he has no objection to the patient's
freedom so long as his property is
properly administered. Attendants
at the asylum say that besides his
obsession for cleanliness, the patient
has other pronounced tastes. He
abhors automobiles, and will walk
miles rather than ride in a. motor
or electric car.
German Militarism v
. N Supported by Soviets
Paris, June 19. German militar
ism has no support whatever in
soviet Russia, according to Mr.
Tehitchcrin, the bolshevik foreign
minister, in an interview with
Charles Pettit, the special cor
respondent of the Petit Parisien,
who has just returned from a trip
to Russia.
Girls, Don't Wash
Your Face
Vtt Liska cold cream instead (you have
never used anything like it). Juit try it
once, and you will never be without it.
Soap and water haa a tendency to make
the akin rough, and does not cleanse the
kin as thoroughly aa Liska cold cream.
To prove it make this test: Wash your
face with oap and water, dry thoroughly,
then apply Liska cold cream, massage it
well inte the akin, then wipe oft the su
perfluous cream with a aoft white cloth:
examine the cloth and see how much dirt
has accumulated thereon. Liska cold cream
cleanses, softens and beautifies the akin.
For sunburn or after a dusty auto trip
there is nothing lilke it. It's fine after
shaving too. Let hubby or brother try it.
Just compare Liska cold cream with any
other you have ever used, and you will
need no further argument to convince you
that it'a the best. It's put up in tubes,
the only tanitary way. Try it tonight.
You will be delighted. At toilet counters
everywhere, including Sherman ft McCon

Captain McGuire and wife will make
a 'grand sojourn through the city
department stores, he says.
But He Knows Cudahy's.
Though the captain is not well
versed in the location of city stores
and attractive places, there is not
one single foot of space of the 35
acres covered by the Cudahy pack
ing plant that he does not know.
He has been on the police depart
ment at Cudahy's for the past 31
years.
Chief of Police Peter Jolly at
Cudahy's has this to 'say regarding
Captain McGuire:
"He's my most efficient man, and
is a true friend to everyone in the
plant. The younger element here
look up to him as a father."
Is 55 Wants to Be 100.
Captain McGuire is 55 years old.
He believes firmly that he will reach
the century mark in age.
"I can easily see 45 years ahead of
me," he asserted. "I cannot even
imagine I'll die before then. Why,
half the deaths in the country today
occur because persons lose their
constitution too quickly they die.
because they continually think
they're going to die any momenjt."
Captain McGuire is a lively sport
fan. He says he would rather see
a good base ball game than win at
poker.

LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.
The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to its na
tural color dates back to grand
Mother's time. She used it to, keep
her hair beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive. Whenever her hair, took
on that dull, faded or streaked ap
pearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out of date. Nowadays, by asking
at any drug store for a bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound," you will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addi
tion of other ingredients, which can
be depended upon to restore natural
color and beauty to the hair.
A well-known, downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied. You simply
dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw them through your hair,
taking one strand at, a time. By
morning the gray hair disappears,
and after another application or two,
it becomes beautifully dark and
glossy.

THE OMAHA SUNDAY
FAT WOMAN IS
AS EFFICIENT
AS THIN TYPE
Business Success Aided by
Sensible Clothes, Lecturer
.SaysFrench Heels a
Hindrance to Career.
Boston, June ' Fat women take
hope! .
You're jtrst as efficient in business
as thin women.
So declares Mrs. Frank B. Tupper,
lecturer on secretarial ethics and ad
viser to girl students at Boston uni
versity. . .
Mrs Tupper also tells women how
to be successful in business. Here
are the rules:
She should not wear extreme
styles.
She should not wear her hair in
huge puffs over her ear?,
She should not wear French heels.
She should not wear dropstitch
hose and short skirts.
The average business man regards
girls attired as described above as
"poor fools," according to Mrs. Tup
per. The successful business woman
should be clean, continues Mrs. Tup
per. She should shun all prejudices
of race, creed and nation.
She should have art easy manner
of speech.
"It is your fault if any employe
costs too much," said Mrs. Tupper.
"Make your employes responsible
for errors in their department. Put
your whole experience behind your
organization. The old idea of boss
ism is gone; we must have co-operation."
The speaker said that a whole lot
could be accomplished if both em
ployers and employes would refrain
from bringing their troubles and
family matters into the office.
"Women do not like to work for
women," she said. "Women will take
a chance ouicker than men when it
comes to changing their jobs," Mrs.
Tupper added.
"One thing a woman possesses
more than a man is patience. You
can't tell me anything about the dif
ferences between men and women
when it conies to jealousy over some
body else's promotion. A woman's
intuition has saved many a man in
business.
"You can't tell us to stay home
and replace our jobs with men. It
is too late. We are in business and
we are going to stay.
"If I am worth anything to a man
he should pay me for having me
around.
"I would not send a red-headed
girl to work for a red-headed man
nor a quiet girl without initiative to
a man of similar type."

MY TIRED FEET
ACHEDFOR"TIZ"
Let your sore, swollen, aching
feet spread out in a bath
of "Tiz."
Just take your shoes off and then
put those weary, shoe-crinkled, ach
ing, burning, corn-pestered, bunion
tortured feet of yours in a "Tiz"
bath. Your toes will wriggle with
joy; they'll look up at you and al
most talk and then they'll take an
other dive in that "Tiz" bath.
When your feet feel like lumps of
lead all tired out just try "Tiz."
It's grand it's glorious. Your feet
will dance with toy; also you will
find all pain gone from corns, cal
louses and bunions.
There's nothing like "Tiz." It's
the only remedy that draws out all
the poisonous exudations which puff
up your feet and cause foot torture.
Get a box of "Tiz" at any drug
or department store don't wait. Ah!
how glad your feet get; how com
fortable your shoes feel. You can
wear shoes a size smaller if you de
sire. To Remove First
Signs of Old Age
"The infallible first sign of age is the
sagging cheek muscles," says Mine. Cava
lieri, whose fame as a beauty culturi.3t is
scarcely less than as a songstress. "These
are more difficult and 3erious to treat
than wrinkles," she continues. "The sag
ging muscles indicate they have grown too
weak to remain in place; they must be as
sisted, strengthened."
The best way to strengthen them Is by
bathing the face in a simple lotion made
by dissolving an ounce of pure powdered
saxolite in a half pint of witch hazel.
This creates a freer circulation to the parts,
besides causing muscles and skin to con
tract. Saxolite, procurable at every drug
store, has long been known by complexion
specialists to possess remarkable tonic and
astringent properties, valuable in treating
flabby tissue and wrinkles.

Boston Clergyman
Says Man Who Plays
Ball Is Clergyman
Boston, June 19. Can a man be
a Christian and. a sport?
Boston clergymen answer in the
affirmative. ,
"A man who plays base ball, golf,
tennis or any other sport is a better
citizen than one who stays at home
and spends his time reading," says
the Rev. Kelley Jenness, Methodist
minister.
Rev. Selden E. MacGeeghon, pas
tor of the Congregational church of
Northboro, says: "A Christian can
not only be a sport he ought to
be."
Ministers who oppose Sunday
base ball agree with those who favor
it that sportsmanship should be an
American institution.
Rev. Richard Wright, pastor of
Pilgrim Congregational church,
Cambridge, says: "Sport leads to
fairness and fair play. Therefore
sport and Christianity go hand in
hand."
