by the way, must not forget to point
out to you that its shape not only
eases your wrist and protects your
hat, but also brings the whole Of the
sunshade into view in a way which
makes it worth your while to indulge
in dainty details of this kind
And while the hats have thus
changed the shape of many of the
sunshades the fabric fashions in
dresses have had just as potent and
decorative an influence on others,
and so it is that for specially smart

shades made in cloth of silver and

ALMOST A CLASSIC
Closing Remarks OF Hon. Walter L
Hensley In the House Of National
Representatives.

Pennington is proud to call her
own men of the type of Hon. Walter
J.. Hensley In the Hall of our
National Legislature he is not known
as the silent man from Missouri. but
on tine other hand is making him
felt along side of The old and tried
statesmen. In closing his speech
before the House in the submission
OF his resolution requesting the
President of the United States to
use his influence to help bring to
pass the cessation for one year Of
naval construction, he made use of
language that is almost classic. We
az pleased to reproduce ii here for
wider reading IN the local commu-
nifty, No doubt It effects the spifi
aim of the Hon, Mr.. Hensley. Here
1t is:
It Is indeed IA reflection on the
intelligence and religious life Of any
people to teach the arts of war on
land or sea. Nations no more than
individuals should continue in wrong
doing. The Good Book says:
They shall beat their swords into
pIuwshares, and their spears into
pruning books. Nation shall not
liit up sword against nation, neither
shall they learn war any more.
There is vast difference, MIR.
Speaker, between those who for sci.
fish hasons shape their sails to
catch the faintest breeze that will
drive them toward some haven Of
sell-interest and the individual who
with Christian fOrtitude starts out
across the high seas and, even at
"A sacrifice, seeks To serve his peu.
pie and promote his country's wei.
| fure--the one licentiOuS leader
who unfurls the flag of corruption
I and marshals the interest upon the
fields of degradation and at the
right time for his purposes pluuges
| his country into the vortex of utter
ruin, while the latter unfurls the
white flag ~ purity and sincerity,
marshals under his banner men of
patriotism and love for country, al
ways pressing onward and upward
to that glorious day which will
usher in "the golden era of the
brotherhood of man and the father
hood Of God" Let us by unani-
nous vote and rs speedily as posi-.

men, thank you, one and all. ="

Two Fires in a Day

The people of Pennington were re-
minded Monday morning OF the fact
that there was a possible need of
fire fighting apparatus, as the fire
alarm was sounded twice during the
forenoon Of the day.
In the first instance the County
Intirmary, just at the edge of the
city on the north was endangered.
In this case as well as in the other
il was on account of IL flue burning
out. But as the blaze started on the
roof it was difficult to get at and not
so easily discovered. If BAIL Iolman
who lives near the lnfirmary had
not observed the blaze and instantly
have given the alarm as well assist
ing In putting out the fire ii is prob
able the building might have been
destroyed.
The second time the alarm was
sounded the crowd was directed to
the Phillipp's Restaurant on Column
bia street Just one block from the
south east corner of the square.
The fire had not gotten into blaze
here. A fiue had burned out and
piece of wood projecting into the
flue on the level of the second floor
of the building took fire and was
slowly burning from which emana-
ted a great amount of smoke into
the building. AS soon as the loca.
tion of the fire was discovered 1t was
very easily extinguished.
These two instances carry lesson
well worth needing by all: Clean
out your flues before starting your
hot fires for the winter.
