KEW YORK. May 11.—Charity and ethics are being badly mixed In the motion picture popularity contest now on; the charity Is all right, none better. It being the New York Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor, but i the ethics Is away off. for the contest as It Is being run Is no fair test of the popularity of the flint stars. The ballots represent nothing except the bank roll of some friend of this or that star. If a rule had been made requiring each ballot to carry the name and address of each voter, then the contest might have had the color .of a legitimate contest. Inetead, there Is no Identity in the balloting, simply so much money and so many votes at 10 cents each. Nothing i.a.e been put in the path of any group of men who might seek, for business reasons, to boom individuals of mediocrity or obscurty into the limelight by gaining for them the titles of "queen of the movies’' or "king of filmland.’’ In fact, the contest suggests the annual church sociable popularity contest at Pikes Corners for the sold tgohl-plat-ed) watch, the fourteen-karat diamond ring and the big talking doll. Thus, as a real popularity contest, based upon the Individual votes of "movie” fans with relation to the screen ability of the stars, the affair now being pulled off is bunk, nothing but bunk. However, the New York Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor Is anything but bunk, being a vital and worthy charity, which this year finds itself SIOO,OOO behind its total budget. This association is nonsectarian and supported by voluntary contributions, with many activities. In Its department of family welfare, the work is to relieve at once immediate distress and suffering. the annual expenditure being approximated at $483,000. Then there is the $32,000 needed for the home hospital. Into which poor families are admitted, where one or both of the parents and the children are suffering from tuberculosis in an early stage; $3)5.000 for the Crawford shops, conducted to g‘.v work to persons who, because .of physical handicaps, are unable to ■work In regular Industries, and SB,OOO for fresh air homes for convalescing women and children, and boys’ camps and girls’ lodges in the country. The president of the association Is Cornelius N. Bliss and the vice presidents are K. Fulton Cutting. Terry R. Pyne, Dwight

Morrow and Albert G. Mllbank, with a board of managers that reads like a social register. It Is in the same building with, but Is entirely separate from, the Charity Organization Society. Up to this morning the motion picture popularity contest has netted about $20,OCO, which is one-fifth of the desired amount, and far from the 1,000,000 votes it was expected would be cast long before this. The contest closes tomorrow night, when the "votes" that have been held back will bo dumped in. Headquartering also in the same build lng as the New York Association tor Improving the Condition of the Poor, 103 Hast Twenty-Second street, but not connected in any way with it. is an organization named the Association for the Aid of Crippled Children, of which Mrs. Edgar S. Auchinclose, Jr., is president, with a board of twenty-five women directors. This other association alms to obtain education for crippled children, either through the public schools or otherwise; to furnish medical and surgical aid for them and to provide trained nurses personally to attend in the homes of those in need of aid and advice. I am told that 2,937 crippled children are upon the lists of the association, which maintains a field staff of fifteen nurses, and accommodations for thirty two helpless crippled children are provided at a place called P.obin's Nest. This year's annual budget is $37,000. To finance the work In hand and raise funds for its expansion the ladles of the crippled children's organization for three days next week will hold a "street fair" in the heart of Manhattan Island; the brick paved central plaza of four city blocks in Tark avenue between between Forty-Sixth street and Fiftieth street, being the selected site, the cost of setting up and preparing for the affair is something a little under sll.non, or nearly one third of the annual budget of the association. There are to lie slathers of awnings, flags anil colored lanterns. It was through wonderment as to where the crippled children came in—the south end of the "street fair" Is directly under my windows —that it was learned those In charge of the affair hope tii raise an unlimited sum up to a million dollars. Nearly one thousand worn en are working on the project, nearly all former war workers. "Os course. w shall have small chance of getting a mil-

The Infected Sebum 9'% cf all hair troubles are traced to Infected Sebum. It is an oil that forms at the roots of the hair. Its natural function is to supply the hair with oil. But it cakes on the scalp. It forms a breeding flace for bacteria. It clings to hair and destroys it. t lodges in hair follicles and plugs them. Then germs by the millions start to feed upon the hair. Semibaldness soon is marked. Then comes total baldness. You can see this Sebum on your scalp, in the form cl an oily excretion. Or, when dried, as dandruff. But it does not kill the root®. Hence when you remove it, new hair grows. This is scientific fact medical authorities will tell you so. You must remove the infected Sebum. Now We Remove It For years, science experimented to combat infected Sebum. Finally a 95% effective specific was found. Now we have embodied it in a home treatment. It is called Van Ess Liquid Scalp Massage. It is applied anew way—a scientific way. (Note illustrations above.) It penetrates to the follicles of the hair. It combats the Sebum and removes it. Results are marked. They are quick. In two weeks it stops falling hair. It grows new hair with continued use. We urge you to try this new way. We know the statements we make are amazing—almost incredible. But remember, we back them with an absolute guarantee. Note the results yourself. Mark the healthy condition of your scalp—the freedom from dandruff. Look in your mirror—see for yourself. Go today to any druggist’s. Obtain the Van Ess treatment. W ith it you will get our guarantee, signed by the druggist from whom you buy it. Hence, it is folly not to try it.

lion dolars, but we set a high figure and strive for it,” said one of the ladies today. It appears the directing center and originator of the project is Mrs. Arthur B. Cllflin, who last year conducted the charity "street fair” at Southampton. L. 1., and befor-s that did one at Lakewood, N. J. Sho has associated with her F. Burrell Hoffman, Jr„ who Is an architect and chairman of the construction committee. The only thing of the sort | attempted In New York was the “street j fair'' run by Mrs. narry Payne Whitney . .some years ago In Greenwich Village, j The first block Just above the Grand i Central Station is to be devoted to a circus with acts imported from Coney i Island. In the next block there will be I a theater, of which the stage has been 1 built and the skeleton walls are well up. The upper part of this block will be given over to booths—cigarettes, hats, china and glassware, fancy household articles, pottery, dolls, garden supplies, sideshows and art gallery. Society hostesses will preside at these different booths. In the third block will be attractions of Interest to children, and the block between Forty-Ninth and Fiftieth, streets will be devoted to booths where candy, cigarettes aud flowers are to be sold. Has ‘‘Main Street" come to New York with a popularity contest running and a "street fair” opening? It would seem so. Behind all this red-hot campaigning l of two associations for cash with which to carry on their private charity work j looms the City of New York, through its department of public welfare, the logical guardian of the unfortunate poor and It self spending $16,000,000 annually, about equally divided between municipal and private hospitals or orphan asylums and eleemosynary institutions. Half a century ago politicians at city hall abused home relief. They paid rent and gave away food and clothing around election time with prodigal disregard for the taxpayers’ money. The result was State legislation forbidding thp city officials from using public funds to pay vent or to render assistance to people In their homes. That caused the ineuba-tii-n of s. ores of private charity organizations. which finally centralized and became quite u law unto themselves as t.i who should and who should not receive aid. Some even maintained lobbies t at Albany. | Then came social service slowly creeping its way out from the m- nielpal hosj pitals a few years ago. a work which fell within the law. However, the city was unable to break down the legal barriers so as to go in for distribution of food and clothing In homes, but of lato has been getting around it by appealing to private Individuals for the necessary extra funds. The late D. C. Converse, the banker, left $2.\000 for that purpose, j Mrs. Nicholas F. Brady at the present

time la cooperating with the city, nad there ar j many others also helping from thtir private purses. Bird S. Coler, commissioner of the department of public welfare, says the ideal conditions will be for each religious denomination to look after Its own, above what the city does, and he says everything is shaping up that way, "When this perfection has been attained,” he said, "then mountebank methods of raising money will be a thing of the past. There Is no reason I can see why a great city like New York should not take care of its own broken members of society, or crippled children end nil—as a matter of record the city Is now caring for more than 13,000 children, aud we have ample and excellent facilities for ail who may need assistance.” Kansas Prisoners to Purchase Radio Set KANSAS CITY, Kan., May 11.—Now comes the radio jail. And why not? Radio wares, so the wireless bugs aver, pass through grim gray walls as easily as through the air. Prisoners in the Wyandotte County Jail here have been learning all about the radio. There's a concert by radio every night In this section of the Middle West, aud the men behind the walls want to enjoy it. "We will save our tobacco money and buy a radio receiving outfit,” one of the prisoners—a long termer—suggested. The fund is now reaching the desired proportions, the sheriffs is willing, and the jail will soon have a wireless set with a "loud speaker” to entertain the prisoners in the "pen” every night. Calf Without Eyes Born in Ohio Town MEDINA, Ohio. May 11. —Freak calves with five legs, and some with an extra tail or two, have been born in this section of Ohio. Oldtlmers also recall when a calf with three eyes was borrt la Medina County. But Charles Wolf, bring In Copley Township, has a calf, born a few days ago. with no eyes. The calf is a perfect Holstein, except that it is eyeless. Although it has eyebrows the calf has no ey“sockets.
