LOOK FOR SUDS & DUDS NUR HOME OLD AS CIVILIZATION Should girls and women paint? Should the practice be forbidden by law? This pressing social problem is vividly and colorfully raised on the screen in "The Painted Lady." Fashions in paint, as in all things, change and often, like the time tables, are subject to change without notice. But they generally break out again, like epidemics, or recur in cycles. This use of paint is apparently as old as the human race. In fact, Darwin was right in supposing that the race only became human when it first be- gan to paint, according to modern scientific research. The reverse "eng- lish" is likewise true that "painted ladies" often make monkeys of men. Girls and women who paint can, however, silence the male who objects by pointing out that Man painted first, it probably being several centuries be- fore the weaker cave female was per- mitted to paint for adornment.
