New MiIIiner for JOrdan'>.
With the opening Of JOrdan's comes
q new milliner, Miss Cooke, who will
hereafter be in charge of the millinery
department of this big establishment.
There are a goodly number Of the late
summer hats here that are not only
dressy, but chic. There are few OF
the toweling hats that are prettily
trimmed with ribbon rosettes, but
still prettier and newer are the little
Frenchy straw shapes Of black with
the brim trimming of velvet ribbon of
some contrasting color and a small
spray of flowers. JOrdan's has almost
made specially of these very attract
i've hats for street wear The velvet,
1moret and plush hats that are worn
with the fall suits are to be more
elaborate this year than they have
been for some time. The black and
white models are the most popular,
although the turquoise shades are in
troduced into many Of the models.
One very pretty hat is perfectly round
with an upturned brim faced with
black velvet. The crown and upper
brim are of black and turquoise blue
moret silk. There is no trimming on
this shape save a band of the silk.
This model would be particularly be-
coming to a blond. Another dainty
model is an Oriental turban of black
satin with a high ornament of black
feathers at the. front. This model, it
seems to me, would be very becoming
to the slight young miss. A few Of
the dress hats at this store are shown
in the window. display. One of the
new little conceits in millinery shown
on two or three OF the hats is the
drop tuck of chiffon. Some of these
tucks are black like the hats while
others are white The dress hats are

Iowa idea promises TO be a subject of
careful consideration. The national
council of education proposes to inaug-
urate campaign to make the little
red school house. which in Iowa is
usually white, more attractive and the
instruction which comes from within,
more effective.
We in Iowa have been working along
these lines several years. Results are
not yet apparent, except to make the
problem one of nation wide import

conditions. A love Of rural life, in
place of the general hatred of it by
the boys and girls, must be thru educa-
ton and the rural school. Better pay

to be the means to this end. The new
state of Arizona believes it has met
this problem by the plan Of appropriate
ing $1,000 annually to each country
school where more than eight pupils
are enrolled.
The real solution can be found in
consolidation. We can't expect graded
