What is Cecil Jacobs costume for the pageant in to kill a mockingbird?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Before the pageant, Cecil Jacobs scares Scout and Jem while they are walking. That helps set up the incident that occurs after the pageant because when Bob Ewel is following the kids, Scout thinks that it is only Cecil Jacobs trying to scare them again. If Cecil Jacobs hadn't scared the at the beginning of the pageant than Scout would of been more frightened and might have been more careful with the noise she was making so that the person following the kids wouldn't of been able to follow as easily.

What is the criteria for a beauty contest?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Beauty pageants are generally multi-tiered and popular, with local competitions feeding into the larger competitions. The worldwide pageants, thus, require hundreds, sometimes thousands, of local competitions. In the United_States, there is now a commercial beauty pageant industry that organizes thousands of local and regional events for all ages for profit supported by magazines like The Crown Magazine and Pride of Pageantry.

The typical perception of a beauty pageant is that it occurs once a year, has women of a petite frame, the event is live on stage, and that a talent is involved somehow. Particularly with the advent of the internet, this perception has changed drastically. Although they are not "live," Internet and mail-in pageants have provided a plethora of entertainment to those who compete and an opportunity not available to those unable or hesitant to travel.

Size no longer is a limiting factor as many competitions espouse the goal of "natural" beauty. There are also more and more pageants, which are dedicated to the "plus sized" delegate. While a size 14-16 may be considered a traditional plus-size in the US, in the pageant world a size 6-8 may be considered as plus depending upon the pageant system.

Although the selection of a Beauty Queen is thought to be an annual event, there are no hard and fast rules as to the frequency of selection. Pageants have also changed dates and frequency based upon the needs of the Organization. Take for instance, Miss America. For decades, Miss America was held during the fall with the pageant usually occurring in September. Recently, the date changed to January. This produced a term of greater than a year length for that Miss America.

On the other hand, some terms have been shortened due to needs of the Organization. For example, during its formative years, the Mrs. United Nation Pageant had several seasonal changes with some Queens holding a term of less than a year.

There are other pageants who take a totally different approach altogether. Particularly in reference to on-line photogenic pageants, there are competitions in which a winner is chosen on a monthly or even weekly basis. There are those who will take each of these as a "preliminary winner" with the intent upon a "final" competition at some later date. Others treat each of these as a "final" winner and provide a title.

Regardless of the method of competition, break down of scores or frequency of selection, all are defined as "entertainment in the form of a beauty pageant." It is up to the individual to determine which is best suited for competition or of particular entertainment interest.

Why are beauty pageants exploitive?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Some people feel children's beauty pageants are exploitive. Since there are many different types of pageants that a child can participate in (natural, scholastic, semi-glitz, and full blown glitz systems) it is unfair to group all competitions into one basket.

It also depends on the individual child and parent, how a child perceives the value of the competition. A pushy and insecure parent could convey a negative message to the child, hence making it a negative experience. A positive parent who encourages the child in a nurturing manner could make this a valuable stepping stone in the child's development.
