Mr. Grady, in opening his talk,
quoted from the Scripture the words

“)“I press on,” and illustrated them
1 by telling of Paul, who was not satis-

fied with what he already knew but
kept going forth.

The speaker said, we cannot be
babes in Christ, we must be mature
in our intelligence—think like adults
pressing on toward the goal of man-
hood. In continuing he said, “I ean-

“If I were a girl I’d certainly |

of an artist,” declared Professor

M. L. Wright in a lecture to his
sociology class a short time ago. “In-
stead of using cosmetics skillfully
int an intelligent attempt to aid
Mother Nature’s work, girls daub
their faces with various kinds of
paints, powders, and lotions in such
a manter that the effeet is grotesque
rather than beautiful.”

The subject came up during a dis-
cussion of the ways in which primi-
tive peoples adorned their bodies,
and was used as an illustration of the

Mr. Wright continued his lecture
in a humorous criticism of the mod-
ern feminine customs of using rouge
and lipstick indiscriminately. “The
painting of the fingernails,” stated
the lecturer, “is one of the most of-
fensive decorative traits to a true
conception of feminine beauty.”

The types of dress and bodily
adornment have no connection what-
soever with the moral and religious
