INTEREST ON DEBT BURDENS ENGLAND Miss Ward Tells How America Gan Help Britain The Commonwealth club held its second meeting of the season last evening and, despite the intense cold a large audience greeted Miss Ada Ward in her second appearance in New Britain. Miss Ward developed her gifts to cheer the wounded men in the war hospitals and has since | made many trips across the Atlantic, lecturing first in England and again in America, “to make”, as she aptly puts it, “England and America laugh with one another, not at one anoth- er.” The monocle which came here and the bargain hunters which went there have given false ideas of one another, she said. No country wants loafers, and, thank God, they are less and less. Coming to her subject, “faces in the crowd,” she said: “One's face is his trademark. Before history began, Every nation, every clvilization has had its characteristic portrayals, down through the Greek sculptors, the Latin masters, the English Gainsborough, the American Whist- ler and Sargeant, and lately on magazine covers and advertise- ments."” Turning to her said: “The first great changer of faces s Time. Not so much as formerly. We have learned the arts of defense. But Time will get you if you don’t watch out!” Then she drew the face of a schoolboy and, without changing the feature she changed the appearance by successive addi- tions with seriocomic comment; high collar, upper-lp fuzz, slick hair, wondertul tie. After verbally depict- ing the queer complaint symptomiz- ed by uncertain appetite, dates, etc., she showed the cure in lines result- | ing from rent, milliners bills, ete. In the same way she showed the school- girl from the big hair-bows to the doublechin and spectacles. But there was more pathos and tenderness in the added wrinkles, deeper and deep- | er till the one came when the tele- | gram came from the front. The sec- | ond great change is Dame Fashion. Drawing another face she proceeded | to place above it the hats of succes- | sive styles, “to which we just get accustomed and the bill paid when along comes the next.” The war taught all to defy fashion, yet there blackboard she | there any on the walls of his cave, man por- | trayed the faces of those he knew. ! is one, universally becoming and very little changing, the wedding veil. Continuing, she said, “But after all character affects faces more than ex- ternals. Don't make the mistake of judging by face alone, however Some people wear a mask.” Then she depicted the types of separate fea- tures followed by a study of general characteristics. She drew three cir- cles and in them the feature marks; In the first all straight, second all curving up, third all turned down, adding: “There’s plenty in the world To il your little cup, It you only let the corners Of your mouth. turn up.” Taking up the types she said, “First there’s Mrs. Gossip. All her lines go down except her nose and that turns up. It isn't so much what she says as what she hints. There arc not many of them and there's only | It will cost | one cure—Don't listén. you something, but its worth the cost. The only thing yworse is the male gossip. “Then there's the smart alec type with the convex face—no room for knowledge at the top and no de- | sire at the bottom. An old English- man, having listened to the egotisms of such a one said: ‘Young man, did you ever put your hand in a pail of water? Did you take it out? Was hole left? Well, ther. won't be any hole left when you're drawn out of this world, so shut up. American schools are eliminating that type. “The sympathetic face came next, the face of one who feels with, not for, his fellows. Then the good-tem- pered face of the man who can quickly turn every cloud. He gener- ally has no liver. This was after- ward turned into John Bull, and be- side him, long and lank, appeared Uncle Sam. “How much of the world's destiny lies in their hands” she said. “You have a slogan ‘See America first.' But yowll never sce America until you see it through the eyes of other countries. Our flags have white for purity, blue for truth, red for courage. Yours has sta stripes, not of glory but of and suffering. Mine has tradition, precious and glorious, and—crosses! —heavy crosses. But before them both waves the flag of the King of Kings! It has been said that man is a fighting animal, there will always be war. Yes, there will always be ar, but not against one another. Unitedly we will battle the ranks of darkness and evil, disease, sin, pain and death!” In the lively questionnaire which followed someone asked, “What would help England most, now?” She replied “It is a hard thing to ask, but the wiping out of the inter- est on our debt.

His petition to| the state board of education stated| that the turnpike on which his chil- dren walk about one-half mile to imoel the school bus, is dangerous | and because of the recent accidents | he states that the bus should call at his house for the children. Wil- |liam H. Mandrey, supervisor, said | that inasmuch as other children | have to walk two or three times as ! far, the distance was not unreason ble. He also pointed out that there were two other possible roads | which could be used in order to {gu to the bus.
