With few exceptions, extremely large
hats were worn; the exceptions. by the
way, were large hats differing from the
majority only In the width of brim, for
they were puff crown turbans with close
fitting coronets and huge choux or bou-
ouets poised at the back at peTilous
angie. There was little that could be

Race suicide touches so vital a matter
II would seem as If the discussion stirred
UP when the question was thrown into
the polemicaI arena will never die down.
A professor In one Of the country's old
est and most widely known universities
advocates race suicide as a help toward
the highest and best race development
Quality, not quantity. he says, is the
standard toward when humanity should
move. Womans sphere is 10 rear good
children, children that viii make good
citizens. not merely TO rear children.
II is encouraging 20 note that the coun-
t-y's best thought and intellect are being
centered upon the subject. The very fact
that II Is discussed Is helpful. no matter
upon which side one may take his stand
The thrashing out Of all the pros and
cons cannot but wake many Up and sci
them to thinking upon what was before
considered as a matter OF course.
No intelligent, humane man or woman
but VIII admit a child has a right TO be
well born IN the sense that he has a
right to health, sufficient food, clothing,
and shelter 10 protect life and sufficient
education 10 equip him for the work

nality TO bring a child into the world
unless one can so provide for him As

clearly see as the university professor
says, that IL is not quantity. but quality
that means progress. II is the quality
of the men and women that helps the adj
vancement of the race, not its numbers.
Humanity by the millions might dwell on
this planet but unless some one Of the
millions was seer of visions and
dreamer of Dreams. unless some indi-

tiniest bit Of leaven will do more to light

that counts for progress.

instead of vigorously taking hold Of the
cause. We have our charities, our free
educational institutions, our settlement
workers. 10 try 10 lift the mass Better
IT would be 10 try TO reduce the mass

Chintz Applique.

From the Philadelphia North American.
Apply cut-out cretonne flowers to
coarse linen lace for bedroom curtains.
This work is to be recommended for its
beauty and richness and, let it be whis-
pered. for the repairing of that cluny
and antique lace insertion in the curtain
that has seen too hard service on the
washboard.
Huge colorful blossoms from English
chintz or cretonne are sewed upon the
leee with their raw edges in evidence and
then covered along their edges with white
OF cream cotton braid.
When this work is well and firmly done
there will be no danger in its being laun-
dered with the ordinary care given to
any curtains. The applique work should,
however. be laid face downward upon a
soft flannel cloth during ironing.

THE VOTE FOR MAYOR

There Is much significance in the
vote for mayor in this city. In
reckoning Mayor Bollschweiler''s
plurality over William H. Fullerton
the figures look good. The mayor
led his Republican opponent by 926.
The vote for mayor. however, was
divided between three candidates
and when Bollschweiler's actual
majority is considered he was elect
ed by only 211. This is a rather
small margin. AS a matter of fact,
it is fair to suppose that had the Re
publicans nominated a high class
man Bollschweiler might have been
defeated.
1t is plain that those who voted
for Fullerton would have voted for
the Republican candidate no matter
who had been nominated. But a
candidate of high standing would
have polled the independent vote
that went TO Adam Eckert, for it is
probable that had the Republicans
put the right kind of a mar in the
field MI. Eckert would not have run
Then, add to this the votes that were
cast for Bollschweiler because it wa:
considered that there was no choice
between the candidates, and ther'
might have been enough to have de
feated the mayor, even with thu

majority, not his plurality. furnishe
