"a good average spring, followed by
the usual Iowa summer" says the Cas-
tana Times, will put more money in
Iowa banks to the credit OF Iowa farm
ers than all the llullaballoo of politics,
no matter which party wins. OF course.
we must have politics and they need
wedding and cultivating, but pshaw!
they are not usually worth a darn after
the crop is harvested"
Let US strive to resist the wave of
discomfort, that is steadily pushing
over the country and recognize that
the truest and best reforms come with
the exercise of patience and an hon
est strife against undue privilege"

LARGE NUMBER OF
PUPILS ENROLLED
Record of Years Is Surpassed
at the Opening Of Fall
Term Yesterday.
MANY AT HIGH SCHOOL
Attendance There for First Day Is
so7 With More to come-15s
In Freshman Class.

Incomplete figures show that the
total enrolment in the grade schools
yesterday was 2.516. which is far
above any previous figures. The new
plan of districting the school terri
tory has worked out to the entire sat
isfaction Of the board, and but few
changes have been found necessary.
Some Of the schools are filed TO ca
pacity. and IN these cases II has been
necessary to depart from the original
plan Of pupil assignment as laid down
by the new district map, and trans
fer extra pupils to other schools.
The high school boasts the largest
enrolment in years, 607 pupils being
registered yesterday, while still more
are expected. OF this number an I'M
usually large percentage ia composed
OF out Of town pupils. There are 156
members in the Freshman class alone,
which is the largest first year class
since the founding of the nigh school.
MANY AT LINCOLN.
The departmental work which has
been newly established In the Lincoln
school. has been gotten we'll under
way and the system has been found
entirely satisfactory. Yesterday POI
pupils were enrolled in the Seventh
and Eighth grades at the Lincoln
school. and the new assembly room
was taxed to the limit.
Superintendent Hayden Is one of
the busiest men in existence these
days. Yesterday he visited every
school in the city and made a per.
sonal inspection of each room. He
stated that the work Is moving along
smoothly and that with the increased
enrolment and the excellent corps OF
experienced teachers, there is every
reason to anticipate an exceedingly
profitable year.

FASHIONS IN HATS

TINS is season OF unlinit-
l. ed millinery possibilities.
A season when commonplace
faces can be made to look
charming and attractive. sea-
son when a really handsome
face can be made to show it's
delicate beauty to striking ad-
vantage.
a great majority of women
are neither commonplace nor
famous beauties. but have in
teresting faces and with
proper millinery environment
can be made to look chic and
distinguished.
There should not be an
abundance OF trimming used,
it's the shape and the line that
counts most.
A milliner who is sincere
and thoroughly understands
the millinery art can make a
fair average face look beauti-
full, while the incompetent mil
liner may make a classicly
beautiful face look common
place.
The hazard is in choosing
the wrong milliner. Take no
chances this season. choose the
one who knows.
We knew a girl with red
hair and ugly features, she was
commonplace and discouraged.
1t was shown that her hair was
wonderful red and should be
used as the high light of her
costume; she adopted a dis
tinctive color scheme for all
her clothes. Her milliner
chose the correct shape and
lines of hat with trimmings in
harmony with her hair and
dress and it was but a short
time before the girl was lifted
out. OF the commonplace class
and was noticeabiy fine look
ing and distinguished.
The spirit of this millinery
department is to give each Gus
toner most careful considera-
ton. and a study of new model
adaptations that will give dis
tinctively effective millinery to
each woman who avails her
self of the services of our ex-
pert milliners.

TINE FOR ACTION.
II would seem that the time for
automobile regulation IN Rock Island
is ripe II not very much over-ripe. The
excuse has always been that a motor
cycle cop would have to be added to
the force. That may apply TO the
speeders who use the Seventh avenue
boulevard and other outlying streets,
but Just how a motorcycle is needed
in order to prevent the other abuses,
Is a mystery.

curb thereby insuring the machines
