HIGH-CROWNEDHATS
IN STYLE FOR FALL
Trimmings Will Go Even
Higher Than the Crowns.

For a number of years at the begin
ming of each season hats with high
crowns have made an attempt to win the
approval of fashionable women, but with
only the most limited success. Neverthe-
less, although the very lofty hat has been
persistently frowned upon. crowns have
Just as persistently been adding little by
little to their altitude until now the one
that would not so very long ago have
been considered extremely high is taken
as a matter Of course.
Still, there are hats shown that strike
even the eye somewhat accustomed to
height as being decidedly freakish, and
from this it may be inferred that the
makers OF the modes intend to encourage
the progress upward yet farther. The
most startling models have crowns that
taper to a point at the top and run well
toward foot in height Starting with a
hat Of this kind. one may follow different
methods OF procedure.
Crowns Are Sometimes Bent Over,
Most women are likely to prefer that
OF bending the point Of the crown down
and fastening It at one side with any
decorations that are to be used. but this
is by no means obligatory. The hat may
not only be allowed to retain all the
glory of its natural elevation, but this
may be added to by trimmings that soar
above It. This may seem sufficiently alb
surd, but is not half so grotesque as an
other hat with crown that As trine
lower and less pointed and Is adorneu
with an Alsatian bow set straight across
the top.
The latter shape, without the bow,
seems to be an entirely practical one. It
is shown in the soft felts for midsummer
and autumn and Is likely to be even more
conspicuous as the season advances. The
more extreme pointed CROWN itself may
find a place It can fill grac efully. One
outing hat with such a crown would
make a charming head covering for a
woman Of a juvenile type. 1T is OF straw
in natural and green mixture, has a
wide brim with q downward curve and
wears altogether the air Of lprimitiveness
that is so captivating in the wilderness.

VOTES OF WOMEN NEEDED
TO REGULATE MUNICIPAL
HOUSEKEEPING AFFAIRS
A Woman Suffragist Who Gives New Point of View
to an Interesting Question
By MRS. ANNA e. HENDLEY.
Treasurer District Of Columbia Woman Suffrage Association

There is a deeper significance to the
question Of woman suffrage than simply
an act Of justice to woman, deep and
important as that side Of the issue is.
All real lovers of our country, all true
patriots should consider well this wider
significance, which is that man generical-
ly-the race-needs women's votes. The
city to-day is a big cooperative busi-
ness. One after another the duties that
formerly belonged to the individual fam
fly have become the duties of the COM
munity. The care and training of chill
dren, disposal of refuse, supervision of
food supplies, &C, essentially domestic
functions, and relating directly to the
home and family, are municipal affairs.
The city must have woman's distinctive
and inherent abilities cooperate with
men in maintaining the municipal house
hold. if it is ever to be maintained ef-
ficiently.
Men do not know how to keep house, as
judged by women's ideals of housekeep-
ing. Women also know the municipal
housekeeping is no better when done by
men alone. Woman's sense of RESPONSE
bility for the welfare of the child and
the health and comfort of human beings
is needed in the city government as in
the home. Men as a whole do not realize
this any more than as individuals they
realize the Importance Of petty domestic
details, but there are men who are fully
awake to this phase of the question.
They are those who profit by vice and
depravity. Wherever you go-North,
South East, or West-the woman's SUI

frage movement is opposed by the full
strength Of the saloon men, gamblers,
and all other traffickers in vice. AS
a Los Angeles writer puts it, Thus
by the enemies we make do we
discover that these men Of evil pur-
suits see in woman's vote a def
mite determining factor for the regula-
ton Of social conditions They know that
to give woman the ballot means an in
slant menace to their trades" For in
stance, Seattle's women ousted Mayor
Gill within three months after the fran
chise was granted to the women of that
progressive State of Washington.
We know that woman will exercise her
power for decency and purity; that bust
ness, politics. and party isterest will have
scant weight with the feminine voter
against her ideals of right To oppose
woman suffrage is to abet the aims and
purposes of these vicious classes to see
motherhood degraded, all true woman
hood humiliated and disgraced by being
put in the same legal status with the
criminal, idiot, pauper, and minor, and
only considered people when taxed or by
penalties imposed is violating man-made
laws, &c.
To favor equal suffrage is to declare
one self on the side Of home, mother
hood. and for the loftiest conceptions of
liberty, justice, and true patriotism.
Every individual must determine how to
ally himself or herself for the better
ment and uplifting of the race, by Civ
ing woman an equal chance with man
to do her best for God and for humanity.

Colored Handkerchiefs.

Colored handkerchiefs are being used
by the girls more than for many a sea-
son. And the handkerchief counters
are simply running over with bits of
linen gay with solid color and striped
daintily with white at the edge; or in
white, with fancy stripes, or plain bor-
ders Ci color. Always the tiny hens
are colored. The fine linen handkerchiefs
with tiny colored borders and initials are
liked by the girls TO carry out the colors
of their various suits. A box Of them is
always welcomed as a gift. With the
white waists that have colored batiste
or marquisette or linen collars, colored
handkerchiefs to match are Just the

Moon fore-door touring cars to Charles G.

Moon ''3p' chassis has been sold to the
District government for the use OF the

Some time during the month, at a date
to be agreed upon later, the District
plans to hold competitive test between
number Of trucks represented in this
city to determine which is most suited
to its needs. The machines will be load
ed with 5000 pounds of pig iron and be re-
quired to cover a prescribed route. In
addition to the driver each machine wilr
carry an observer who will keep an ac-
curate record OF the performance Of the

this test the District will purchase the
truck which is for use in the surface
division.

J. NJ. stoddard, OF the Cook & Stoddard
Company, who was instrumental in de-
feating the Simms bill. proposed IN 1906
for the regulation Of automobiles in the
District, and which provided regulations
so stringent that It would have been
almost impossible to comply with them
and at the same time attain any enjoy
ment from motoring, is heartily in favor
Of a law which not only will deprive a
man OF his license to operate a ma
chine when he appropriates another's
car for his own use, but which will also
provide penitentiary sentence. He says
the laws Furnishing those who either
operate a car when not capable OF so
doing or without regard to the rights
OF others are entirely too lenient in
Washington.
"Depriving the man Of wealth OF the
privilege OF operating a car when he
has committed some fragrant violation
of the law deprives him OF one OF his
greatest enjoyments," said Mr.. Stoddard.
Taking away a chauffeur's license for
the same offense means that he is de-
prived Of his means Of livelihood. so the
law Furnishes both equally. AS It is now,
violator of the law can get OF with
fine or fail sentence"
