COCKATOO . . . . .
My wi(fe and I were awakened be.
fore iun-u^a few days ago by a cry
of Hejlo:'' which seemed to come
the sky, followed by a racuofcs
"scrjech which sounded like a child
in pa/n. W? rushed to the wiudow
The screeching continued. It cui^e
Irom the top of a tall ash tree clos.*
to the house. Perched 011 an uppt:
branch was onej of the mos? beautAfu
>ird"| I have ever seen; pure white,
a crest of leathers tinged with p ile
yellow. It was bigger than a Leghorn
pullJt. The bird sc^anicd "Hello!"
at lis again, emitting loud sereecfeei
as he flew.
Soon there was quite a gathering of
neighbors on -our front lawn, gaping
at the strange bird. One of them w.u
its owner. It was a trained Austral
ian sulphur-crested cockatoo, he siud
vi l*ich he uses in a theatrical act, n.id
had escaped when he. was ''leaning
its cage.
The bird stayed in our 'rees for
two days and nights, refusing to u
coaxed back to captivity. lie was
beautiful to look at, but every tin).'
ho screeched he reminded me ?L' .ir.JJiiy
people I have jnet, who are attract iv-?
until they open th.*?r mouths.
BEAUTY ..... skin deep
Coming up the path after a lo'jg
rainy speH, jry wile saw two beauti
ful objects 011 the lawn which l ad
not Ikm'ii there the night bel'om They
were globular irushioom^, one as bi?i
as a baby's head. She picked the.'i'
and brought them to the house, whe-f
Wy all admired their beautiful skin!-,
mottled like leopard s, pale brown
and whit. .A couple of mornings later
after they 'ai,d out 011 the front poruK?
rail in the suu. I found the mush
rooms had turned black ami their ip.
sides wcro a slimy, striking mens.
- They wete H |Wi ftrt exampletrf
old adage, ."Beauty is only skin'
deep."
I sometime^ wonder at -he. effort,
and expense to whiieb so it any girls j
and women go to mnkt? tiiemselvos j
boautBftil. r never see one whose l.u??
Mi.d hair haw obviously be;n fix.<1 :i*
a "beauty parlor" without v.ondeni^
what theue behind *h.? {rtifi< i.-t'
beauty. I 'ike to look at 0 beaut i ft'
woimin. as every man does, but l "><
steadv companionship 1 fli'llk mo.-i
"inien prefer the ones *'ho do ir-t
make tlio pursuit of beauty tl.eU
nuiin object in life.
STANDARDS . . beauty meaiure
Men's standards ef feminine beau
jyvary * om country to country and
from time to ti|me. a'most lrom man
to man. It is a good thing for the
gi>eat majority of young women that
this is so, and that men seldom pic?
their wives for the?r beauty a'on?\
One of the reasons why Shakea
peare is the universal and eroriast
ftig poet is that he does not describe
his heroines except to tell us they
were beautiful. Every man can apply
his own standard of beauty to Juliet,
of whom Shakespeare wrote only thai
sho was young and beautiful. To the
Scandinavian r.adc- that makes Ju
liet a blond; to the Ita/lian she is
brunette; to Turks, who admire fern
.nine plumpness, Juliet was fat; It
Chjneso Juliet would be slant-eycl.
and if the beauty standards of the
African jungle arc tli0|S0 of tho sav
age bell ts we have seen in the circu
and the movie travel pictures, with
' huge, distontod lips, or necks dlretcb
od to incredible lengths by ^cyrelin^
brass rings, one can imagine how the
African beaux would visualize Juhei
if they ever read Shakespeare.
"Beauty is In the < ye of tho behold
er," an ancient philosopher wrote.
No truer words were ever spoken.
TALENT . . . , .without heaa'y
Moftt of the gir'B who try to mak3
themaolves more beautiful than Na
.ture made them attempt, conscious./
or unconsciously, to look likij iBonf
popular star of the stag0 or scree.x
usually tho screen. Many tlifok ac
tresses are popular because they aro
beautiful., while u^udly the contrary
I is true. They become popular Stars
becausot'hey have talent as actor*
1 and most of them have to be
'iallv beautified for their public ap
' pearances. Most of them mak* no of.
fort to look beautiful wh?n not on
tho job of entertaining. ?
Almost without exception, however,
th>a ones I have known h?ve been
delightful companions. Their dba
