FLOWER TURBANS
FOR THE MIDSEASON

For midseason headgear the flower and
JET turhans have taken their place so
staunchly that apparently we must ac-
cept them whether we like them or not.
Some Of the fowered ones are really
lovely. Those Of pale shades are undoubt-
edly the most becoming Like the present
fur turbans they are large affairs and rest
far down ON the head, hiding almost all
OF the hair
Some are Of geranium pink. the flowers
Of velvet These are quite untrimmed, de-
pending entirely on shape and becoming
ness Tor their style
There are others Of small pink rose
buds with a splashy bow OF velvet to
match on the left side quite far back.
one smart one Is rather on the toreador
shape the brim OF white gardenias. the
crush crown OF pale blue panne velvet
This Is worn with frock OF the same shade
as the velvet

The Other Side of the Paving Question

Editor THE EVENING JOURNAL.
Dear Sir MANI letters have recently
appeared in the daily papers strongly
oDposing the bill formulated by the
Board of Trade changing the present
method of mesting the cost % paving
The streets Of n city of Whining
ton
Most Of these letters indicated that
hhc writer's were quite unacouainted
with the provisions. Of the bill fact
auite excusable because. until the
Board of Trade met in special ses-
tion. on Thursday. February. Eleventh,
10 consider the oil. il had been seen
by very few people. and the daily
papers had given but a brief account
iof its contents.
The bill has now been approved by
the Board of Directors Of the Street
land Sewer Department and it's legal
ASPECTS have been passed upon by the
City Solicitor. and as it is a public
measure Of vast Importance to every
property owner. it should be given the
widest publicity and most serious con-
.Isideration.
~ considering the bill. however. one
must do 1t Justice bv considering it
from the broad viewpoint of public
policy and not from that narrow view
,of Immediate benefit or harm to any
one Individual. 1t is sometimes diff
cult to forget our own special interests
lin any public act. but only in this way
can measures affecting an entire COM
munity be properly considered.
The burden of all the objections set
forth in the letters so far appearing
in print. is, that because some prop
lerty owners have already had the
streets in front of their properties
paved at the expense of every other
property owner in this city. it is very
unfair now to require owners who
have had no paving to pay a larger
share for their paving.
In other words because A. b. c. and
D. have had their streets paved at the
public expense. all the rest Of the
alphabet would rather have no paving
at all than allow A. b. c. and d. to
reap any extra immediate benefit. I'M
mediate. mind youi Because if those
who have written the letters objecting
TO the bill knew what the bill con-
tains they knew that. if they could only
have a few years Of patience, A. 3. c.
and ID. would also be called upon TO
pay for the paving in front of their
ipavemeuts. of the best character. do
not last ad inhnitum. and when those
which are now built require relaying
with new materials, the abutting own
ers must pay one-third the cost, under
the provisions of the proposed bill; so
that eventually every owner in the
city will be upon the same plane. In
the meantime the cost of maintenance
and repairs Of all pavements, new or
lold. is to be met from the annual
revenues received by the Street and
Sewer Department.
The bill further provides that all
railroad companies occupying the beds
iof the streets shall pay the cost of SC
much OF the pavement as has already
been or may hereafter be provided for
by laws passed by the General As
Isembly or by ordinances of the city OF
Wilmington.
A further provision sets forth that

Bechom- David.
erty would rather have the street in
front of where he lived, paved with
good sanitary pavement. than to have
a continuous mud hole during wet
weather. which was breeding place
for the germs of zymotic diseases
which were carried all over his dwell
ing during dry dusty periods. Upon
this assumption, and realizing that this
condition could not be enjoyed under
the present system, they have en-
deavored to suggest a system by which
every street in the city of Wilmington
could be paved. quickly. without burd-
ening any citizen for its cost, and with
out increasing the present tax rate. or
course it is not expected that any sys-
tenn will meet all the objections Of
fered; but the system proposed is the
one which has been used successfully
in all the principal cities Of the United
States, when. after a thorough trial,
il has become popular
While Wilmington is resourceful. and
has been eminently successful as an
Industrial centre. il cannot be expected
to accomplish what no other city of
the United states has ever accomplish
ed. that is to pave its streets from the
common fund. and the earlier she
recognizes this fact the better IL will
be for her future welfare.
Eighteen years ago there were Just
as many strenuous objections offered
TO the system. then proposed, Of meet
ing the cost of building sewers. For
many years the city authorities had
endeavored to find ways and means
of building them from the common
f,nd. but up to 1890. there were but a
few miles of sewers built, and the
most Of these were private ones. Now
after eighteen years trial with building
the sewer system by requiring the
abutting property to pay portion ol
the cost, the system has been EXTENDED
until there are as many miles OF sewers
as there are streets opened for traVei.
The tax rate has not been increased
10 do this. and sewers have become
such a necessity that but rev people
can do without them.
The same thing would be experienced
NV the citizens Of wilmington II ths
nroposed system Of paving the streets
was adopted by the present General

A man ought 10 have some money be-
fore he gets married for he won't have
any afterward.
Generally the man who knows how to
tell funny story has to listen TO a fellow
do It who doesn't know how.
The first thing the average man thinks
about when he gets home is what would
be a good excuse TO 90 out again.
The more indignant a man can get over
the bad morals a play would expose his
family to the more he will go to it him

Care Of the Hair.

There are many simple precautions that
may be taken by the person who is
troubled with dandruff in the hair.
First, brush the hair out thoroughly and
carefully at least once day.
DO not use a stlff brush.
Avoid also a comb with sharp teeth.
When the hair is shampooed. be very
sure that all the soap is washed out
DO not sleep with hairpins in your hair.
It is best TO braid the hair softly for
night.
II the dandruff stiil persists, after the
shampoo try rubbing white vaseline into
the roots. DO not use enough TO make tho
hair greasy. A BIT no longer than the end
OF the finger win be enough for the whole
head

buked for his neglect. which few wo-
men do know. OF course. this is due
chiefly 10 the fact that men give more
and larger tips than women. In res
taurants frequented by those Of modern
incomes, however. that is not the only
cause. especially where the walters are
women. A woman waiter questioned
on the subject had this 10 say: Pos
sibly. II the woman who can afford TO
tip would not neglect TO do so. and
remember that IL costs nothing to say
Please and Thank you our own sex

do now Also. n women who cannot
afford TO tip us were civil, and recog-
nize that we cannot serve everybody

them. Men. as a rule, are easy "a

their money. Many a woman who
orders a glass of milk and a bun makes
more fuss about Il than a man who
purchases a good square meal, and she
is so silly in the way she orders us
about. They keep us standing at the
table a long time. while other custom
ers are waiting. before they viii decide

ON LIFE OF GEN. LEE
Lee Long Ago Ceased to Be Regarded As a Sec.
tiOnaI Character.

CHAPEL HILL, n. c.. Jan. 90
Many gratifying changes have taken
place since the great struggle between
the States, I'm which Gen. Lee played
so conspicuous and distinguished a
part, and one Of the happiest thoughts
of a celebration like this is that Gen.
Lee long ago ceased to be regarded
as a sectional character. that he has
been accepted the country through as
a great American. devoted in the time
Of his chief distinction to a partic-
ular cause"
Thus spoke DR.. Woodrow Wilson,
president of Princeton University, at
the Lee birthday celebration at the
University OF North Carolina last
night. The South does not grudge
him to the nation as one Of its great
figures" he continued. but IL cher
ishes as a section a particular and
ardent affection for the gracious gen
tleman who led its armies in the great
contest, which was fought regarding
some of the essential questions Of
our constitutional life. Il loves TO
remember all the qualities of great
ness that were I'm him, and how gentle
and magnanimOus a spirit dwelt in the
great soldier, and how great a soldier
II was who led her armies.

his birthday to praise him. II is not

to speak of what he means to US in
