ORNAMENTS FOR GRAY HAIR.
Black and White Are Two coIors Tha,
Should Be Avoided.

The silver-haired woman makes a
mistake In wearing black in her hair
under the impression that 1t will
bring out the color. The contrast IL
too startling, and black deadens the
luster. White darkens the silver tones
and is apt to give the hair a greenish
hue
The most becoming tone that can be
used is silver though there are certain
shades of turquoise blue that are love
ly with it.
For daytime or informal wear bows
or fillets of silver gauze are charming,
while for evening big silver flower
or wreaths and garlands In silver
oak leaves, or narrow silver bands will
give the silver-haired woman a touch
of distinction that no other coIoring
can.
Side combs for gray hair are most
effective with silver tops. Gold
combs rarely look well, though occa-
sionally those studded with turquoise
are becoming. Rhinestones or dia-
monds go particularly well with sill
very hair but are more becoming
when set in silver or platinum than in
gold.

return journey was begun and Presi-
dent Taft was quickly recognized by
the crowd which stood enthusiastically
unmindful of the ankle deep snow and
slush about them, and was acclaimed
all along the great distance of the ave-

Wearing his broadcast of smiles, he

CED TO TAKE OATH OF OFFICE in THE SENATE CHANGER ON AC
COUNT OF BINDING SNOW STORMY weather CLEARS
AND GRAND PARADE is HELD

Washington, March 4.-The first
chief executive to take the oath of Of
flee in the chamber of the Senate in
seventy-six years. William Howard
Taft, today became President of the
United States.
Accompanied to the capitol by Pres
ident Roosevelt and a guard of honor
through the swirl of binding snow, Mr..
Taft returned to the White House Just
as the sun began to force its way
through the clouds.
A sudden blizzard sweeping in from
the northwest last night set awry the
weather bureaus optimistic promise
of fair and somewhat cooler" caused
an abandonment of the outdoor cere-
monies on the famous east front of the
and threatened for a time to stop the
brilliant pageant of the afternoon.

was replete with martial splendor and

Following the inaugural ceremonies

tionate adieu to his successor. while
all in the historic chamber looked on

celebration. For hours the thinly
clouded heavens were alight with rock
cts, with sun clusters that challenged
the hrilliance of day, with fiery "co-
bras" and all the fantastic creations of
modern pyrote echnic skill.
Prior to his visit to the ball, Presi-
dent Taft had entertained at tea In the
White House the members of the Yale
club; had dined with Mrs. Taft at Z
O'Clock and had stopped in at the Met
ropolitan club to say few words at
the dinner of the class of rs at Yale.
Mr. Taft's day was one of continu-
ing cheers and plaudits from the mo-
ment he first appeared on the White
House portico to go to his Inaugural
ton, until he returned late tonight, an
unwilling leave taker from the inaugu-
raj ball.
Mr.. and Mrs. Taft were the guests
of the Roosevelts at the White House
last night, setting a new precedent in
the courtesies of the executive man
sion, as they did again today when
Mrs. Taft accompanied the newly made
President and MIR. Sherman. the new
vice president. from the capitol at the

their usual share in viewing the inaug-
uration.
1t was demed dangerous. however,
to force upon the venerable members
of the Supreme Court, the Senate and
the diplomatic corps. the jeopardy OF
long exposure to the elements, and the
President-elect finally acquiesced In
the change.
Not since Andrew Jackson's second
Inauguration in 1888, had a President
taken the oath in the Senate. At his
first inaugural Jackson protested
against an indoor ceremony when so
many OF his fellow citizens were gath
cred outside the capitol. So. followed
by all the distinguished company. he
proceeded to the portico of the east
front. and there took the oath of Of
flee and delivered his inaugural ad-
dress. His second induction into Of
flee, however, was marred by weather
the equal of that which prevailed
throughout last night and today.
To effect the change in ceremonies
from the grand stand erected along the
east front of the capitol to the Senate
chamber, 1t was necessary to rush
special resolution through the House
and Senate.
When President Roosevelt and Mr..
Taft were announced at the main door
of the Senate chamber, opposite the
presiding officers desk. the auditorium
of the upper branch of Congress held
what was probably its most brilliant
assemblage of dignitaries of state and
nation, and richly uniformed ambassa-
doris. ministers and special representa-
tives from practically every country of
the civilized world.
The voice of the usher at the door
way was drowned in the cheers from
the corridor throngs which followed
the two chief figures into the crowded
chamber.
The President and Mr.. Taft walked
side by side down the aisle way to

chairs placed Immediately in front of
the clerks desk, and sat facing the
distinguished audience. Every one in
the great assemblage rose and re-
manned standing until Mr.. Taft and Mr..
Roosevelt were seated. On the floor
OF the chamber were ranged the men,
bers Of the diplomatic corps, justices of
the Supreme Court, members of the
House and Senate, the admiral of the
navy, the chief of staff of the army,
and scores of other officials and distin-
guished visitors.
The ceremonies of the inaugural for
mally were begun when Vice President
Fairbanks, in farewell address,
which called out for him a spontaneous
tribute of applause and cheering, de-
clared the Sixtieth Congress at an end.
Turning then to Mr.. Sherman, who had
been escorted to place beside him, he
administered to his successor the SOL
emn oath of office and turned over to
him the gavel.
Mr.. Sherman, in rapping the Senate
first Congress, made a brief address
and then followed the swearing in of
many new senators.
This completed, Vice President
Sherman said:
THE chief justice will now admins
ter the oath of office to the President
elect"
The chief justice began the admins
tration of the oath In low tone, Mr..
Taft repeated the words in slow, dis
tinct voice.
When he at last had kissed the Bible.
there was an outburst of applause, a
grasp of the hand by the chief Justice
and President Taft began Immediately

cies of his administration in an inau-
gural address. He read from typewrit.
