LOU EMMONS IN SARTORIAL LIMELIGHT IN N. Y., HERALDED AS PERFECT DRESSER

Kar! K. Kitchen, In New York Sunday World). If Louis Martin Emmons, the niftiest dresser in that art centre of the Middle West, Richmond, Indiana, hadn't replied to Andre de Fouquires, when that Parisian dandy asserted that American men didn't know how to dress, the same Louis Martin Emmons might have remained a merchant tailor in that same art centre of the Middle West instead of becoming a movie star. For Mr. Emmon's reply to M. de Fouquieres's grave charge changed his whole life. From comparative obscurity that is if the best dressed man in the art center of the Middle West could be said to be obscure he leaped into comparative fame. At least, he is the star of a photoplay called "Society's Answer." And while neither Douglas Fairbanks nor Charlie Chaplin will be at all worried that such a "fillum" is on the market, there is no question that Louis Martin Emmons has climbed a few rungs vp the ladder to fame and fortune. Emmons Admitted It. It must be made plain that the writer did not assert that Mr. Emmons was the best-dressed man in Richmond. Mr. Emmons voluntarily admitted It, Consequently there was no occasion to prove it. "The promotors of the film society's answer naaded a swell dresser in the role of the Millionaire. They turned to me because I had become famous as the best-dressed man in America, and I turned to them because they had ready money. It was hard to desert Richmond, Indiana, and its cultured people for the fll-lums; but I felt that I could carry a message to a wider public if I personally appeared in a picture and displayed my clothes. "The plot of the story is concerned with the frivolities of society before the pleading cry of war-stricken countries reaches the hearts of the people; and then, afterward, the awakening of these people to the real worthwhile thing of life, and their noble answering to the plea of distress. "Not Life in Richmond" " I might add that the picture is a story of real life and real peaple, with a continual round of teas, dances, luncheons and love. It is not life as "it is lived in Richmond, Indiana, mind you. No moving picture could portray that. But it shows lite as it is lived In New York. "Whenever the picture is shown, copies of my American dress chart are distributed to the audience, and if movie fans will follow it they will be correctly dressed on all occasions. For instance, for all occasions after six o'clock, weddings, receptions, formal dinners, theatres and dances, an evening dress coat should be worn. A white tie should be worn with it. Ties All Red "I had a hard time convincing many of Richmond's leading citizens that a white tie should never be worn with a dinner coat. Several of my friends in that classic city used to assert that thev didn't care what color their tie

was so long as It was red. But after they got my dress chart they learned differently. "The Richmond critics spoke very highly of me. One of them wrote that I did great credit to myself by the simple and uneffected manner in which I interpreted the character of the Millionaire. "And the same critic added that my former fellow-citizens enjoyed seeing me walk down the street on the screen sartorially perfect, a3 was my wont when I lived there and was invariably referred to as the city's Beau Brummel. In short, the first showing of 'America's Answer in Richmond was a triumph for myself and wardrobe not forgetting the Nyloptic Nymph, Mile. Devoto.

SOCIALISTS AFTER HUNGARY CONTROL; JOSEPH OPPOSED

(By Associated Press) VIENNA, Sept. 1. The press of this city describes the new Hungarian cabinet as "unreservedly reactionary" and speculates upon the reception

which will be given it by the entente

and the probable course of Hungarian socialists and working men. Count Osaky, the foreign minister, was formerly a diplomatic officer and

was a member of the entourage of former Emperor Charles in Switzerland. He is said to be still in that country. Martin Lovassy declined to enter the new cabinet, being quoted as saying that its formation was a "direct challenge to the entente." Paul Garami, minister of Justice In the Peidl cabinet is reported to be leaving Buda Pest for Switzerland, having made the declaration that here is no

hope of solution of the Hungarian problem. Former Premier Jules and

City Champs Beaten

In Exhibition Match

Ollie Otten and Jim Harrington, playing an exhibition tennis match with Holaday and Isley, city doubles tennis champions, on the west side courts, took the "champs" in camp by winning three straight sets, 8-6, 6-3 and 6-4. Otten and Harrington, who had all the bad breaks in their match with Simmons and Eversman, in the city tournament, redeemed themselves by playing good consistent tennis, and although Holaday and Isley played their old "army" game, had little trouble in winning decisively.

fairs, are reported to be assuming the leadership of the Socialists. The Szabo who has been announced as the representative of a small farmers in the new government, is not the former minister of agriculture, but an unknown man from a small village. Reports from Budapest say that the support of the new cabinet is gradually falling away and predict that Paris has or will indicate its disfavor of the present government and insist upon a more popular cabinet. This seems to be based on official intimation. Vienna papers continue to print lists of Jewish victims of pograms and are printing the news of the victims and the localities where the pograms occurred despite the Hungarian government's denials that they occurred.

RAILMEN TO LEAVE STRIKE ACTION IN OFFICIALS' HANDS

(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Sept. 2. Partial returns from the strike vote now in progress among the railroad shopmen, indicate, union officials said today, that the men will accept the advice of their officers and leave the matter of a strike in their hands, pending the result of governmental efforts to reduce the cost of living. This was the day originally set for a strike and it was feared that some of the more restless element might quit work. Secretary Scott of the railway employes' department of the American Federation of Labor taid, however, no report of strikes had been received. He added that if work was suspended anywhere it would be at the point where the union officials appealed to the men to continue on the Jobs had not been fully understood.

being jealous I am true, but he does not seem to believe it. When he is away all day I get lonesome and if I say anything about going to call on mama in the afternoon or to call on his sister, or his mother, he seems to think I intend to meet someone else, which is not true. I have no babies, but wish I had. I would not be so lonely and would not care to go. Since he has been this way. T don't seem to live him as I should. People laugh at me for trying to do as he asks me. What would you do? He does not allow me to Vear high heels, low necked dresses, and wants me to look altogether old-fashioned. TROUBLED WIFE. Your husband is most unreasonable. I think you should go places without consulting him or feeling that it is necessary to explain afterward. Marriage should not mean that a woman must give up her individuality. Act independently and when you know yourself to be right stand by your conviction and let him scold and com

Dear Mrs. Thompson: (11 Is it proper to go to a picnic without a chaperon, the chief feature of the day being bathing? This is a co-ed picnic. (2) We are deeply in love with two very respectable young men. They are not in our set however; we go
