A general demand for a. return en-
gagement in this city of the big

the booking of the big 12 real produc-
tion for the Palace Theatre for today.
tomorrow and \Vednesday. In offering
this attraction at. the Palace. the man‘
agement is able, to present it. at the
regular popular Palace prices as a.
second run atraction. It will be the
first run however. for many Nor-
walkcrs who were not able to see it
when it was at the Regent Theatre
some time ago and it will be second
and third run for many who have al-
ready viewed it once or twice and will
be happy' to see it again. “When
Knighthood Was in Flower" is the
leading picture of the year and it will
not be surpassed by any production
to be made.

Dear Mr. President

that you limo been transported to the
dome of the world. The earth is only

The use of the screen for the dis-
semination of knowledge which you
advocate for the betterment of the
screen is a. common thing. Perhaps
you have learned that Gone is ap-
pealing to the masses with a film ver-
sion of his autosuggcstiou theory. A
currcut l’athc Review shows the
Alaskan mailman with his pack dogs

tlcrs of the Alaskan hinterland. Per-
haps you have SQtn on the screen. as
I have. the evolution of an egg to uni-
mate lifc. the conventional beauty or
snowflakes; the march of progress and
the destruction of war.

Perhaps I have wandered a bit, but

to your attention the remarkable and
woudnrful things the motion picture
is doing to educate the luasScs and its
tangible promise of greater things in
the future, a. promise very definitely

No, sir, he wrote it in the snow

told Nancy and Nick and Mr. Stamps
about it, so they all rushed out to see.

There is no necessity for any woman
not being able to improve herself to
the utmost and make herself charm-
ing in the highest degree—at any :1ch
1 have iterated upon many ceca-
sions, "Every woman can be cilurnh

We have many aids today flat the
woman of :30 )LBJ'S ago did not have
and having these aids and. following
the instructions to be outlined in this
series of articles, it is possiblc {or
every woman to rehabilitate herself
and no longer be classed as an old
woman. regardless ot’ the years that
she may have carried.

It is a matter of culture entirely.

Your daughters at 14 may be \cry
uncouth and awkward—anti ‘lmt do
you do? You (arcfully train tbcm.
either at home, at the dancing mas-
ter‘s or at the finishing school. till all
the rough edges are polished.

It is wholly a. maltvr of training!

And just so any woman l0ll;l_\‘ can
train herself to make use of tlic many

will make her so charming that all
her friends and relatives will caclaim
and remark that she is indeed beauti-
l‘ull

Dcfining the word beautiful. we
have a latitude, in so far as b.au1y is
a pcrl‘cction of form and co;or and
harmony.

Many women have been proclaimed
btautit‘ul merely for their hair, others
nit-rely for the tilt of their heads. and
still others merely for the subtle sug-
gestion of sweetness that .ianates
from (hour; but whatever it mery
woman can improve herself until she
is most charming if not indeed ‘lcau-
lli'ul.

0f coursc. licalth plays a fery great
part in this matter of bcauty. and so
we am: going to go into the different
means 01‘ promoting health without
the aids of medicine, allowing of
course that in sickness it will 0 ad-
visable :o consult your physician.

It is my earnest desire to help you
ovr‘rcomo all obstacles that s‘cnd ~'n
the pay of charm. for I am firm in.
the bclicf that every such obstacle can
be ovcx‘comc.
