Freckles for girls are again fashionable, the movie vamp is passe and modesty and the old-fashioned girl, after a decade, are once more in style. The calcimined girl with the slinker slouch is out of luck, for the country is getting back to normalcy not alone in business but in feminine fashions. So say motion-picture censors from all parts of the United States and Ganada, who are assembled here to visit the Pageant of Progress and tomorrow will depart for cinemaland in California. "Movies are the weather vanes that indicate the fashions that will sweep across the continent," said Major Alex S. Hamilton, of Toronto. "What cinema actresses wear, say, do, or look like today?just that will American qnd Canadian girls do tomorrow. The movies set the styles. "The trend of the films right noto is toward the wholesome apple-pie sort of girl. Vamp films are languish ing. Freckles now have the stamp of approval." "Successful fibwa nowadays are those depicting small-town romances, said Walter L. H3H? representing a picture concern. "Tie demand iB fbt the quietly dramatic life of the American hame. Flays with a sex tinge are frowned upon. The bedroom drama is bankrupt" LUMBER DEALERS ~ KICK ON RATES Washington,' Aug. 16.?Lumber dealers of the south and southwest ;omplained to the Interstate Com merce Commission that rates on forist products to the east, west, middle west, Canada, the Virginia cities and Carolina territory, are so high that ;heir industry is being stifled.

Frenchmen have not yet got a verj clear notion of President Harding'! personality. Through many years they gradually built up a more oi less legendary Wilson portrait which was somewhat retouched anc corrected when they had a chance U see the subject at close range at the Paris peace conference. There is stil much talk about Mr. Wilson in th? European press?political personalities do not drop out of sight sc quickly in foreign countries as a1 home. An example is Clemenceau hardly mentioned now in France bj enemies who talk of having him arraigned before a High Court, as Caillaux was. "President Wilson's health is no ticeably improved since he left tnt White House," writes the weeklj Cri De Paris. "He is still frobidder however, to work. But he reads much, or rather Mrs. Wilson reads metaphysical books to him, for which hi* taste has increased since his illness. "He likes Bergson's philosophy more and more. He is also delving into the mysteries of the beyond, which is a fashionable thing to d< now in America as well as Europe Bat this cariosity about happening! in the other world does, not prevent him from taking an interest in the things of this earth. He keeps 'tracl of the political questions of the moment. A faithful secretary sums uj world news for him every day. Naturally a full report of the doings oi the League of Nations is not omitted and M. Viviani is at present the Frenchman that he likes most. "When he learned of his successor's plans for a disarmament conference he warmly approved the idea but since he has lost none of his sense of optimistic humor as a result of his illness and his trouble* he said to senator who called on him: " 'Only prospering businesses have competitors. Ina?nuch as Harding is now trying to start an establishment to rival the one I founded, the League of Nations can't be'doing so badly as its enemies make out. Unless,' he added Warding also is only a poor dreaming idealist, full of illusion.' "Mr. Wilson is also giving much attention to the Irish question. He has followed all the proceedings with the greatest interest and has never tired of repeating: " 'Lloyd George will quickly perceive that he is on the wrong track. He will be forced to grant Ireland her liberty.' "Indeed as early as the Paris conference Mr Wilson had tried to bring the Irish question up, but without success. When the Sarre matter was arranged at one of the | meetings, Lloyd George exclaimed: " 'We are making the Sarre the happiest country in the world. No military service, very low taxes; the franc is substituted for the mark, which is worth nothing; it is splendid! The Sarre will be the paradise of Europe.' " 'Why,' Mr. Wilson interrupted, don't you do the same for Ireland?' '^Clemenceau growled, Orlando took on an air very much detached from the things of this world, and Lloyd George quickly changed the subject." The Cri de Paris goes on to say: "While history is gathering still Mr Wilson's humorous sallies," it is mute about Harding's quips. Doesn't Mr. Harding ever joke? That if true would be surprising. There is always a sense of humor in every American' ready to burst out at the opportune time. We mentioned this to an American confrere the other day, who replied: "President Harding is waiting foi the Washington conference to come out as a humorist. You may he sure that at that time his jokes will be heard on this side of the Atlantic." THE ARMY MADE, HIM WHAT HE IS TODA\ Augusta, Ga., Aug. 16.?J. S. Fox father of C. 0. Fox, the member oi the party of alleged murderers who, officers say, has admitted hitting William Brazell over the head with s black jack and stabbing him in the breast, came to Augusta today from his home in Stanley Creek, N. C., to render his son any possible assistance. The father blames the army for his son's downfall, stating that the boj was raised in a religious home until 18 years old, when he joined the armj and later came out of the service "a (drunkard and a blackguard."

Mrs. Obenchain ) has been held since the night of the slaying in her presence of the man ! of whom she said was her fiancee. [ Burch who became involved in grad! ually accumulating evidence supplied by investigators was arrested in Las Vegas, Nevada, on his way east the day following the shooting. k Mr. Obenchain had little to say i concerning his talk with his former . wife. He said he tried to cheer her i op and assured her of his determination to fight for her despite the fact he said, that she had once turned , from him to receive the love of the , young broker who was slain and for whose death District Attorney Thomas Lee Woolwine expects her to account at the trial.
