u. S. Government
Fights Malaria
(By United Press Associations.) }

Washington, Sept. 26.-With two of
its eminent sanitation experts-battle
SCARED veterans of a hundred wars
against disease-already in the field,
the United States public health ser
vice is today engaged in the most
scientific engagement since inception
Of the war against the hated mosquito
and its child. Malaria. Other experts
are held in readiness and the service
is listening with hand to ear pre-
pared to invade mosquito ridden sec
tions of the country as it has been
done in the cases of calls for assist
ance from health authorities Of North
Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi.
The cotton mill sections of these
states are in the grasp of malaria
epidemics unprecedented. Unable TO
handle the situations themselves the
state health officers appealed to the
| public health service.
Cooperating with the health Off
GERS of North Carolina is Assistant
Surgeon H. R. Carter, one Of the
men who drove yellow fever from
New Orleans and Cuba. Extensive
sanitation surveys of the affected dis
tricts are under way and already in
many districts mosquitoe breeding
pools have been "dry-cleaned" and
malaria has died with the mosquitoes.
Parallel work is being carried on in
Alabama and Mississippi under the
supervision of Surgeon R H. Won
Ezdorf whose famous work in Havana
during the ''fever days" was a potent
factor in restoring the health and the
commerce of the port.
Malaria is directly traced to "ano-
pheles." The latter is living ami
NAL parasite. It is transmitted to hu-
mans by mosquito bite. The mos
'quito's breeding haunt is stagnant
water. Stagnant water is the result
Of human carelessness. And human
carelessness in directly responsible for
the mosquito, the "anopheles" and re-
sultant malaria. On this theory,
which has ben proved to be correct
by medical research, the experts are
on campaign of education. Lectures
are being made in the many districts
embracing direct appeal to the peo-
pie to eliminate the basic evil Of
malaria. Educational lectures on sci
entific discoveries, the public health
service believes, coupled with an ap-
peal for precaution, is the most eff
fective weapon that can be welded
against the disease.
Reports from Surgeons Carter and
Won Ezdorf show that their educa-
tional campaigns have brought re-
suits in the already "dry cleaned"
districts.

Chicago, Sept. 26.-Every w. C. =
U. local and women's organization II,
the United States will be asked e

girls an example in dressing. The
campaign to '.drive the slit skirt, inl-

at the closing sessions of the annual

The request that women's organiza-

in the fight will probably be made
by letter. Appeals also will be made

is a wide latitude if not many wide
hats in your choice of fall chapeaux.
It is simply the shape and the angle
at which the feather fantasy is placed
that makes or mars the autumn hat
Of 1918.
A new and hideous touch on many
Of the black velvet models is a bind
ing of shiny patent leather around
the brim. 1t is ugly and incongruous
enough to be immensely popular with
perverse Dame Fashion. The only
trimming tolerated in lieu Of feathers
seems to be a high standing halo
Of wired lace outlining the crown
of many black velvet shape or else
the ruching of tulle so omnipresent
this summer.
In the mad struggle for novelty
even the heretofore extinct bandeau
has been dragged forth from obli-
Won, and many a flat hat Of lace is
set up on a band of black velvet to
stimulate this passe and inartistic
fashion. Goura, paradise and numidie
have not outworn their popularity by
being worn out all summer, and to-
gether with wings, ostrich plumes and
quilts feather many hat. In most
brilliant shades come these TRIM
mings as if to offset the somber back
grounds Of the inevitable black vel
vet shapes. Emerald green, royal
blue, brick red and all shades Of yel-
low will tighten up many an already
light head.
The bride bonnet shapes and tur-
bans seems to have a strangle hold
on Miss La Modes swan-like throat,
and the tam, ringing all the changes,
appears with or without brim, turned
up at all angles, loose and floppy like
bag or stiffened and wired into a
] fiat pancake shape. Before fall is
well advanced, however, it is safe to
predict that the tam will be hope
lessly declasse. Its early taking up
has cheapened it and robbed it of its
saving grace of exclusiveness and
originality. Some of the few large
hats, of course are seen, concession
to the picture-hat-type of femininity
The smartest ones have brims very
short on one side and wide on the
other. The wide side turns up at an
acute angle. Ostrich plumes enmasse
are their favorite trimmings, touches
of fur or the wired halos Of lace. II
is predicted that much ribbon trim,

Feathers, Velvet,
in New Chapeaux
(By Margaret Mason.)

\Oy M0I S0ACt NAooVAss/
Written for the United Press.)
There's quite scandal in our set;
I fear the Browns will part.
Twas when she bought her new
fall hat
The trouble had its start.
She says he saw the hat and bill
And looked a trif1e queer,
Then said to her, "Your milliner
Is just little dear"
New York, Sept. 26.-Hats of a
feather flock to the millinery shops
this season, for fine feathers certainly
make fine bonnets. Chapeaux that
boast of no portion of birds anat-
omy are rarer than a day in June.
In spite of the laws banning aigrettes
and discouraging the wholesale
slaughter Of songsters, fair barbar-
ians still clamor for gay plumage and
insist on having a feather in their
caps.
Another essential is that your hat
must be Of velvet, black preferred.
Variations of plush, velours, beavers,
panne velour and broche are also
much favored, but the black vel
shape is the queen. The little hat is
still in the ring, and perky close-fit-
ting shapes turning off the face, tur-
bans and tams are very smart. Al
most all the hats that boast any brim
at all are turned up at some distract
ing angle, at the back, on one side,
or even smacked up smartly in front
in manner trying indeed to most
physiognomies. An Oriental turban
Of black velvet with a straight stiff
ostrich feather tuft in front and j
jet bride swinging below the chin is
guaranteed to make the wearer look
like the pride of the harem.
Alongside of this a tam-'o-shanter
of soft green sage velvet with pea
cock feather jutting pertly from one
side, vies with dainty empire poke
bonnet of ivory and rose brocade, a
chou of rose aigrettes on one side
and a trailing stream of black ribbon
Hobnobbing with this dainty creation
is conventional sailor shape of taupe
velour with trimming of tiny shad
ed yellow wings banding the entire
crown. A little round butter boat Of
hat in amethist velvet has shaded
butterfly of shaded purple feathers
perched bouffantly at the back of the
brim. Indeed, the butterfly, whether
in feathers, lace, tulle, velvet or me
tallic brocade is fad of the moment
as is chic hat trimming-quite the
butterfly of fashion as 'twere.
You can readily see that from these
representative fall models that there

Business men of Washington, financial in

selves over the promise Of the city so dear to the
hearts of every resident of the Capital the pride

There is not the slightest question but what
1918 will be banner year from every standpoint,
just as each succeeding year for the past decade
has been one of advancement and progress.
Practically every business interest in Washing
ton has made money, has prospered during 1912
Money has been in better demand throughout the
entire year than for many years past even in the
dull months, usually, but there were no dull ones
last year.
A number of splendid buildings were added to
the business district and more are planned. The

beat. ,.
The new Arlington Hotel, the Commerce and
Labor Building, the new home for the Bureau of
Engraving and Printing, splendid edfce for the
All Souls congregation, new buildings for Wood
ward & Lothrop, Inc, and a number of handsome
residences planned, will furnish ample work for
the early months of 1918.
Under the impetus of Washington's aggressive
builders, the city is growing IN all that goes to
make substantial improvements, not only in the
downtown sections, but on the outlying sections
and midway between the business district and the
borders homes for all classes of purchasers, rising
as if by magic under the touch of the builder-and
for all homes, there is ever good demand.
The most artistic buildings erected in 1912 are
the Scottish Rite Temple, the First Church of
Christ, Scientist; the Edison Bradley Theater, the
Equitable Building and Loan Association Building,
and the John Dickson Home for Aged Men.
