Mr. E. 0. Hoppi a distuingishpd artist, having charge of the contest, replies to this quest- ion in these tt;mi8 "Expressionâ€" that iiiean intellig- ence â€" that means an inner something that gives that nio.ft coveted of all posesions Personality. "Do i'ou agree with me? "I have no type of beautv I espec- ially admire. Everything that is flaw- less of its kind is beautiful. It does not matter when a woman is really beautiful whether she is purely class* ical, or purely modern, or purely Egy- ptian or Chinese. Let her be perfect of her type and she- is beautiful. "Beauty is not measured by the type. How foolish! It is a matter of opinion. But when the heights ar re- ached it is no lonirer a matter of op- inion bpt of fact. "Wf no lonec have fashions in faces. "Twenty vcar.s ago is was the Gib- son girl, before that the Rossetti. be- fore that the Winter-halter. "Nowdays we recognize beauty where we see it, without making it conform to a fashionable standard. "The emancipation of women has contributed a new style of beauty: one not dependent on certain phys- ical traits. The l)eauty of intelligent expresHion. "Personally I adnire, above all things (if I may confess to any pref- erence.) intellectual beauty. I as' for thought and intellect to be behind a woman's eyes and smile. She is then more that beautiful: she is in- teresting.' "Without that aliveness that inde- pendence has t'lven to the modern face mere good looks fail. "Let her be the most beautiful woman in the world, if her mind is vacant her face is unlit and dull". DATE FOR THE NEW FORD CAR ANNOUNCED rie $20, A.
