One day in 1940 Thornton dug about 5,000 photographs of girls {out of the files of his famous model agency and shipped them off to Fort Dix, New Jersey. The idea was a winner, Thornton has been in the model agency business since 1931, but only in the last five or six years has he stressed child models. Today it accounts for 45 per cent of his busi- ness and is still expanding. He isn't the only one, of course, but he operates with more child models and over a wider fleld on a mass production basis than any other agency. Thornton turns down 50 to 75 per cent of the 100 to 150 persons who apply weckly for their children to become models. The percentage" varies with other agencies. How- ever, child doesn't have to be beauti to make the grade. A youngster with unruly hair, a mass of freckles and one front tooth missing is. a perfect picture of a real boy. Acceptance a Start If your child is accepted by an agency, your work is only begin- ning, A fee of $50 is charged by Thornton to cover advertising ex- pense. You pay for the photo. graphs, taken by any studio, but he won't accept a picture costing more than $10. That is the only fee, and registration continues as long as the model is available for work. Agencies send a selected group of photographs to clients who want to use them in their advertisements. Either that particular photograph is used, or the child itself is called in to pose. Thornton has the photo pur- chaser send the fee directly to the model. He gets nothing. For pos- ing, however, he collects a stan- dard 10 per cent cammission on earnings of $7.50 an hour to as high as $10 to $15 an hour. Chil- dren under one year are paid $10 One 13.year-old model, who has been working steadily since she was age two, had gross earnings of $10,000,000 last year. But there's a long list of models who don't make a dime. Biggest users of models are mail order houses, magazines, depart- ment stores and manufacturers of nationally advertised products. But the more money little Willie makes, the more money the agency makes. Thornton shoots at the mass market. He has around 1,400 child models registered, and he sends their pictures individually and in a large catalogue to some 1,500 clients. This year he is distributing his catalogue to the usual clients and also plans to sell it for $5 direct to advertisers who can select a photograph and pay the model di- rect. Thorton takes nothing from such sales. His profit, if any after expenses, comes from the sale of the catalogue which he hopes to place with 5,000 to 6,000 firms an- nually, Proposed Act Gives Hindu Women New Status Regarding Marriage New Delhi-- (Reuters) -- Women have won a big victory in the new draft Hindu Code so much so that one member of the Indian parlia- ment suggested recently that it be called the "Hindu Women's Code" instead of the "Hindu Code." If the present draft bill, sponsor- ed by the law minister, Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Afbedkar, becomes law, this | is what the Hindu woman, regard- ed in practice and assumed hitherto in law, as the property of her hus- band, will gain: 1. Her husband will not be able to take another wife while she is living, (Polygamy is recognized in Hindu law although in practice enonomic factors and "enlightened conscience" geverely restrict its ex- ercise,) 2. she will be able to claim separ- some guilty fying her . living separately. (Hitherto under the provisions of a wife has not been 3. The property which is given as ATR ER. FILMS DEVELOPED and PRINTED MIRROR-TRUE PROCESS FAST SERVICE Work Guaranteed TAMBLYN DRUGS 6 KING.

She is given a share in the property of her father if he dies 5. If she has a right to inherit property, she gets it by reason of the fact that she is declared to be an heir irrespective of any other considerations. (Under the existing law, descrimination is made among female heirs, as to whether a par- ticular woman is rich or poor in circumstances at the death of the testator, whether she is married or unmarried, or whether she is with issue or without issue. The present bill abolishes all these considera- tions, 6. Under existing Hindu law where she inherits property from a female relative dying intestate, she gets only what is called a "life estate." She can enjoy the income of the property but cannot deal with the "corpus" of the property except for legal necessity. The bill converts this limited estate into an absolute estate as in the case of the male heir. These "concessions" to the Hin- du woman represented only a small, although vital, part of. the draft code. 'While the existing law recognizes only "sacramental" marriage or marriage performed according to Hindu scriptural rites, the draft code recognizes both "sacramental" and "civil" or "registered" mar- riages. The code dispenses with the con- dition that there must be identity of caste and sub-caste for a valid sacramental marriage and lays it down that marriage will be valid ir- respective of the caste or sub-caste of the parties entering into the marriage, The sacramental marriage under the existing law is indissoluble. There can be no divorce. The draft code makes a new departure by making provisions for the dissolu- tion of marriage and specifies seven grounds on which divorce can be obtained. ainter -- Terms Reasonable, CLASS ON LANDSCAPE PAINTING Conducted by T.

Oshawa Group Gives Symphonic Concert About 150 music lovers enjoyed & Spring Concert by the Oshawa String Ensemble last night at St. Andrew's Church. It was the first appearance in public of this group under the able direction of its con- ductor, Mr, Ernest G. Knaggs. The program with very few exceptions was of a symphonic nature and it appeared as if the more difficult pieces were played with more ex- pression and greater accuracy than the simpler numbers. Especially pleasing and well re- ceived were Russian Fantasy by Sheroff; Three Chorals by Shu- mann Corelli and Hungarian Mel- doy by Keler-Bela. While the "Overture Romantic" is quite an old favorite with student orchestras, it is always nice to listen to again. The performance was a little shaky in spots as the youngsters seemed: to be sion, but at the second Serenade of the Bells, every boy was at ease and tone and har- mony became very satisfying. The 17th Century Gavotte by Padre Martini was rendered with great feeling and good contrast. Tea For Two was a bit slow for the concert stage and Now is the Hour could have been somewhat more harmonious. Very nicely play- ed was Golden Earrings by Young, although the soloists seemed to be forced at times. The guest artist, Miss Cezarina Wysocki displayed a superb tech- under a little mervous ten- number, nique, an extraordinarily expressive tone and artistry when she played Chopin's Etude Op. 10 No. 3 for which Mr. Knaggs had arranged the accompaniment for orchestra. Her waltz in E Minor also by Cho- pin was superbly played and it was only natural that the audience wanted to hear more from her. Her encore was the Impromptu by the same composer and the guest artist did full justice to the difficult technique and the most expressive phrasing as demanded by this composition. Mr, Knaggs has made a good start and it is hoped that the con- certs of his group will become a permanent institution in Oshawa and that his group will grow and eventually assume the proportions of the regular symphony. COOL COMFORT As summer draws near Cana- dians again face the need-of guard- ing against heat sickness. When a person is exposed to very high tem. peratures, sich as are found in | some industries, and fails to take the necessary precautions, he may experience dizziness, headache, cramps -and nausea. These are the first signs of im- pending heat sickness and indicate that the regulatory mechanisms for controlling the body temperature are unable to cope with the situa- tion. Immediate action should be taken to remove the patient to a cool, airy place and to summon a doctor. PAG 3 /2y { FURS!
