BURLESQUE IN CHICAGO UPHELD BY PROSECUTOR Hard to Draw Line Between Art and Obscenity, Says Official. BY W. F. SULLIVAN United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Feb. 13.—Art does not necessarily need a refined environment and might be found in a West Madison street burlesque house in Chicago as well as along artistic Michigan boulevard—it’s just the way you look at it. To the astonishment of reform workers, members of women's clubs and welfare organizations, Frank Peska, city prosecutor, today explained his views on the purported obscenity of burlesque performances in Chicago theaters. “The line of demarcation between art and obscenity is so small that it often is difficult to determine,” Peska said. “It’s the manner of presentation that must be watched. "Artistic productions might be removed from refined surroundings to a burlesque house and if properly presented would not be obscene. Nudity by itself is not obscenity, it’s the manner or character of its preRheumatism, Neuritis, Pain With applicator attached to cork, Just brush “Heet” over the pain area, whether in knees, feet, legs, hands, shoulders, back, neck or body.

It may have been her childhood training that developed Virginia Strong's voice, but station officials of the NBC network are Inclined to believe that this popular coloratura soprano “came by it” through heredity. Seven generations of her mother’s side of the family produced at least one soprano. Virginia is the younger sister of Vivian Strong-Hart, New York prima donna. sentation that is the determining factor.” The prosecutor said that his investigators have found but little vulgarity in burlesque houses which in most instances have been corrected by recommendations for slight changes in presentation. “The present day viewpoint must be taken into consideration also,” he said. “What was obscenity fifteen years ago, is not obscenity today. Quite often these women law enforcement workers come to my office for a discussion on morals. “During the conference they all cross their legs giving a display that ten years agowould have caused criticism if one of their number had dared to do so. Peska’s remarks we.’e caused by recent criticisms which provoked controversy as to whether the minds of youths are being demoralized by nude and near-nude burlesque shows.

CHICKENS, FISH IS SENATE FARE Solons Discuss Bill Making Hen Stealing Felony. # Fish and chicken made up almost the entire menu in the state senate Tuesday. Nearly the entire first hour was spent in discussing pro and con the proposed passage of the Doogs bill, making a chicken thief a felon. It provided for fines of SIOO to SSOO and imprisonment of from one to ten years in the Indiana state prison. Senator William F. Hodges, Gary, termed the measure “class legislation” in that it only applied to chickens and not hogs or horses. He said a similar bill was passed in Kentucky a quarter of a century ago and resulted in imprisonment of somany white persons it had to be repealed. Senator Denver C. Harlan, president ' pro tern, and a Richmond lawyer, declared that the measure would only make convictions difficult. He expressed the opinion that Indiana has plenty of penal laws and increased penalties should not be sought so much as honest co i victions duly served. Eventually the bill was returned to second reading for amendment which makes the penalty ninety days to six months on the Indiana state farm. The fish bill proponent was Senator Lee J. Hartzell and he also ap-

Best Remedy for Obstinate Cough Made at Home

You’ll never know how quickly a stubborn cough or chest cold can be conquered, until you try this famoua recipe. It is used in millions of homes, because it gives more prompt, positive relief than anything else. It's no trouble at all to mix and costs but a trifle. Into a pint bottle, pour 2% ounces of Pinex; then add plain granulated sugar syrup or strained honey to make a full pint. This saves two-thirds of the money usually spent for cough medicine, and gives you a purer, better remedy. It never spoils, and tasteß good—children like it. You can actually feel its penetrating, .soothing action on the inflamed throat membranes. It also promptly loosens the germ-laden phlegm, and at the same time, it is absorbed into the blood, where it acts directly on the bronchial tubes. This three-fold action explains- why it brings such quick relief even in severe bronchial coughs and “flu” coughs. Pinex is a highly concentrated compound of genuine Norway pine, containing the active agent of creosote, in a refined, palatable form, and known as one of the greatest healing agents for severe coughs, chest colds and bronchial troubles. Do not accept a substitute for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded. —Advertisement. EVAN S' AT ALL GROCKB*
