COLUMBUS. Ohio. July 2a (API
lohn J. Lenta, 75, president and
founder of the American Insurance
union, and a former United state
congressman, died suddenly late last
night In a hospital here, following
an operation for a bladder obstruc
tion. He entered the hospital yes
terday morning.
X"'I' Noincnnc please page lion. AVill Ifn.vsT lie is or was
supposed to lie Hie Czar of Hollywood. Hut we liavc it
on tlic highest authority, there is no Czar of Hollywood hut
only a Czarina. Her name is Sylvia, Scandinavia's premiere
masseuse, who daily pounds, heats and curses the movie stars
into shape.
Sylvia, it seems, rules' with an iron hand, and under her
autocratic control, a new standard of feminine beauty is taking
form in movie hind.
Sylvia's model of beauty is a figure five feet tall, and she
works night and day to attain this ideal. Just what methods
she uses to decrease height have not been disclosed, but when
anyone ijuestions her ability to defy the dictates of Mother
Nature she points to the fact that Mary 1'ickford is under five
feet, Alice White is just five feet Norma Shearer ditto, Gloria
Swansoii is only a half-inuh over, Aim Harding only five feet
two. .- . ' -. : .
,
OIIOI IIjIJ the Venus do Milo apply for a job at Hollywood,
Sylvia would probably throw her out on her ear and Syl
via could do it. Tradition has it that when Hull Molilalia re
sisted her facial massage, Sylvia made him cry for mercy. She
is mislress of certain wrestling holds, the groan and grunt pro
fession never heard of.
Helen of Troy would fare no better. She launched a thou
sand ships, but she wouldn't get it job in Hollywood with the rc
doubtublo Sylvia in control. Nor could the langoroiis long
linibed Amazons in Ziegfeld's Follies.
.
SYfiVIA is powerful mid growing more so; Sylvia is rich and
growing richer. With the success of the Hobby Jones films
in mind, u certain director decided to persuade Mrs. Helen Wills
Moody to star in a scries of tennis lessons. Hut Sylvia put her
foot down long before Mrs. Moody did. No tennis stars for
Sylvia, and without Sylvia what could a poor director do?
Outdoor sports, proclaimed Sylvia, are the deadly enemy of
beauty. No woman athlete is or in her opinion can be beau
tiful. Muscles arc horrid things that must be pounded off.
' t - ' ' '.
ALLOW no stars under my direction to take violent oxer-
eise" quoth the Czarina. "Constance Hewlett takes no ex
ercise whatever. She is my model pupil. Observe) liar pVestjut
salary. All other aspiring stars should do likewise. Too much
swimming develops chest, shoulders and thighs to an alarming
degree. Horseback riding ruins the waistline, tennis makes
one arm larger than the other, golf brings an ungainly stride
I can spot a golfer like a beacon light and professional danc
ing ruins the legs. Only walk on level ground, and not too
lilucli, don't climb hills, ladders or&tnirH. f you feel like exer
cise DON'T, come to me, I will Spound you into shape, the
shape that pays!" !
'.
COjMtlCIl'fni! Sylvia. What has that to do with Will Hays
Well, not much, perhaps, to! Will 'as elder of the Presby
terian church, but n great deal itiseenis to us toWiH lis (he
Moral Mussolini (6f the Movies. ('".''
- Vm- wo aro: ohl; fashioned enough to believe :that. 'physical
health and fitness have' a gl'eat deal to do with habits and mtjr-,
ills." Anil we can't believe th'af it standard of beauty that, bftlins
nil 'outdoor exei'cise, frowns even on climbing a flight of siairs,
condemns an aspiring actress to a life of idleness, and a diet
that retards normal growth, can eventually lend to anything
that is cither desirable or wholesome.
It'miiy result in what Czarina Sylvia HKblHVHS is beautiful,
it may even result in what .mpvie audiences have come to accept
iin bcutitjifui,' but it is lit best; art artificial a purely . synthetic
beauty; rather than ft natural, normal 'beimty,-nnd)tvo believe
the latter is.soinetliiiig Mr. Hays might weil iusist upou. r;
',''' i . ' .' '!'
pOll when all is said and done, we believe that the. ideal of
feminine beauty to -which America should aspire, IS A
HliAUTY HASK1) UPON PKKr'KCT HKAIT1I,, n normal out
door life, a life of active wholesome gnnies and sports, and not
a life of idleness and ease, to be pounded into paying shape, at
so many dollars per whack.
We believe further that there is a subtle but nevertheless
Very close connection between good health and good morals;
between keeping physically fit and in the parlance of the street
"going straight."
In short, we don't approve of Synthetic-Sylvia as Czarina of
tho movies, and think Brother Hays should either tati over the
control he is paid to exercise or give way to someone who will.

CIIKf'KISU IP ON YOl'R IIOCTOB'S ADVICE
PVKHYONK realizes the movie
tionul character, habits and
s havo a great effect upon iia-
many young girls lake their style and beautv tips from the
screen, but we do know there arc tliousifnds.
We would like to see these young girls continue their swim
ming, horseback riding, tennis and golf, keep their tunned skins
and healthy appetites, and if Synthetic Sylvia objects, tell her
and all the other imported masseuses to go jump in the lake. '
That's what we would like to see. And unless we greatly
misjudge Young America of both genders that is what we
shall see, as far as the population Ol'TSIOK of Hollywood is
concerned. 11

t still CAR LOT At h and liartlett St.
Lady told us here the other day
how her family doctor advised care
ful, Intensive medical treatment for
ner ciou lunaimic
goiter, but she
wished to check up
on that, no a h e
Blipped off and con
sulted a net tier doc
tor, -who ran her
through a metobol
Ism teat, and she
cams out marked
Minus 60 or some
thing, and bo the
"goiter specialist"
urged immediate op
cratlon and threat
ened that If she delayed (meaning
continued medical treatment) too
long her heart would become Incur
able. .
Having thus checked up, the child
the lady wrote to me to ask what
she had better do.
I told her tho family doctor seem
ed sincere and honest. He could not
assure hor that medical treatment
would cure. Ho merely gavo her his
best opinion and advice, and he still
adhered to this Alter the simple crea
ture came back to him with the
second-hand report of the brass spec.
In 1 Lst. I think that family doctor
Is not only sincere and honest but
extraordinarily patient under exas
perating circumstances. My own im
pulse would be weu, you xnow me,
all.
; Now, In view of the fact that- I
draw a sharp line of distinction be
tfween real specialists and torasa ones.
may I not Indicate the course the
hidy should have taken?
t When she received the family doc
tor's opinion ind advice, if It did not
entirely satisfy ner and her relatives,
tne ao-tor, in any case, and I am
particularly certain In this case,
would"- have welcomed cordially any
hint, suggestion or request that the
patient or her family desired fur
ther consultation before deciding- No
good physician can or will resent or
object -to any such reasonable wish
the doctor himself would probably
desire 'the same sort of additional
assurance, if a member of hl own
family were the patient. If the gel
ter patient or her relative hinted to
the doctor that some such reassur
ance was desirable, a good, honest
physician would at once agree and
either recommend a good consultant
or pass Judgment upon the qualifi
cations of any ocnsultant the family
might prefer. Then the patient would
go to the specialist or consultant or
the consultant would be called to the
patient's bedside, and the opinion
and advice of the consultant would
be given through the attending fam
ily phystclan.
This last feature IsT more than a
wiseacre and cvcrly-Mlplclous ci3
t:mer can swallcw. Being both dumb
and dishonest hlmsolf ho imagines
there would be -colluslonbetween the
consultant and the family doctor if
the matter were carried Mht In that

uion, merely to cawr to
will of a family doctor
consider his own intere.'
welfare of the patient. The
come of tho enso will either enhance
or mar the reputation of the spec
ialist. -
On the whole. It seems to me that

Ah Viewed from KUlirr Side.
Am Interested In your articles about
tonsil removal rs I am now taking
the diathermy treatment and am more
than pleased with results. The only
drer-ik being the number of treat
ments necessary. This method wilt
be a blessing to anyone afraid as I
was of taking ether. I was In a very
rundown condition from neglect of
diseased tonsils. I cannot say enough
In favor of this diathermy way of
removing tonsils. Mrs. D. W.
We find that patients like this
method (electro-coagulation) for It
doesn't Interfere with their usual oc
cupation. And we like the method
because ve don't have to worry about
secondary hemorrhage, abscess of tbe
lung, etc. It requires a number of
treatments, , but we are able to re
move all of the tonsil. E. R. ,

Mouth Breathing.
My son, a normal healthy young
ster, aged five, breathes through his
mouth most of tho time In sleep
sometimes his mouth Is closed, some
times open. We had him examined
and the doctor found no adenoids.
He sad It Is habit. What would you
advise? R. L, J.
Answer. Mouth breathing la often
caused by chronic rhinitis. In some
cases It Is due to faulty development
of palate and teeth. If there Is no
rhinitis, have your oentst examine
fcr malocclusion.
Anyway Wu Had the flight Olor.
One of youp correspondents sug
gested using red precipitate salve for
head lice, and adds parenthetically
that it is binlodlde of mercury. It
isn't. It's red oxide of mercury. Red
oxide of mercury Is much used for
head lice In country districts. I have
many times Incorporated the binlo
dlde of mercury in veterinary pre
scriptions for blisters. I think you
should print a- correction f. r. .'j.,
Pharmacist. ' ' v
Answer. Thank you. brother. We
had the right color but the wrong
medicine. Red oxide of mercury, It is.
