New Tailored Suits

1t seems the fashion authorities had
the young folk particularly in mind
when they styled tailored suits this
Spring. Certainly tailored suits as
we have gathered for Juniors were
never quite so charming.
There is a youthfulness in the fab
ries; it's in the lines of quaint little
coats and draped and ruffled and
belted and plain. The belts reusually

noticed the exhibition. and there was
a mild jeer-nothing more.
But there NIGHT have been some
thing more. Is there not danger that
there will be something more one
distant day if the rich and idle treat
the poor and industrious with such
supercilious scorn?
The thread linking these diverse
happenings may not be apparent.
But the thread is there, l think.
What | see in the incidents is that
Ii behooves the strong to realize the
weakness of mankind. that the strong
are not so very strong, that there is
very little difference between the
surge and the urge of life in one
class and another, that those who
carry too high heads and persist in
demonstrations of affected superior
ity are apt to court their own undo
ing at the hands of those they de-
spise.

told to the House by Represen-

on his resolution calling for a Con-
gressional investigation into the
financial and physical condition of the
road.
Early in 1902" he said. there were
formed two holding companies-the
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Rail
road Company, to hold the stock o.
the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific
Railway Company. and the Rock Is
land Company, to hold the stock of
the fist holding company.

"The promoters Immediately raised
the stock from $60.00000 to 75,000,-

the railroad company and Sl1.OOOOOO
