NATION HAS BEEN BLESSED
Multitude of Reasons Why This Year
Gratitude Should Be Widespread
and Fervent.

1t is one of the fraiIties of human
nature that when all is going well with
us we are apt to be thankless. But
when peril is imminent, when danger
or death threatens our loved ones, how
quickly and instinctively prayer rises
to the lips and how grateful the
heart returns thanks when the crisis
giving has been too frequently ap-
preached with thoughtless spirit as
differing no whit from the years that
have gone. Not so today when COM.
mon impulse ascribes a tangible cause
for thankfulness that, alone among
the great nations, we have been spared
the horror or the menace of the world
war, that we have been chosen as tha
custodians of civilization. the one
hope of despairing nations for return
to sanity and peace.
For it is not alone that death and
destruction have passed US by, butt
that, under Providence and out of his
bounty, we have been enabled to miti-
gate the suffering of the wounded, to
succor the starving and help the help
less. More than this. too, that, as we
have kept the light of liberty flaming
for the emancipation of mankind from
ancient thralls, today we are priv
ileged to keep alive the vestal fires on
the altar of peace. Thus honored
above all peoples, held from harm,
blessed with natures abundance. and
constituted the guardians and ex-
ponents of progress amid an almost
world-engulfing tide of reaction, we
are thrice blessed and should be thrice
| thankful.

The Goddess of Fashion appears to
be taking a vacation, or perhaps she
has abdicated; at any rate she is is
suing few edicts We do not hear
thou shalt or thou shalt not" and
are left to do as we please, With
world of new designs in hats and
gowns to choose from. They include
many beautiful things.
In the early season there was a
universal vogue for the black velvet
hat. 1t is a becoming thing, this
black velvet hat, but when ninety-nine
out of a hundred. women wear it it
becomes monotonous. The demand
has swung away to black hats in
plush and velours and to the dark col
ors that look so well with the metal
trimmings and handsome furs and
feathers.
Two hats are pictured here which
are so good in shape and in design
and in every particular that they may
be chosen with the comforting con-
viction that there is nothing better.
One is a moderately wide-brimmed
model, with lines lifting a little at the
front and little more at the back.
Its small. round crown is concealed by
three soft half-plumes mounted over
1t. They are topped by one of those
odd steel ornaments mounted on a
stem, which look like nothing on the
earth or in the air above it. Perhaps
this is part of their fascination.
A hat Of this kind must be devel
oped in materials of excellent quality
and will be beautiful in dark-colored
velvet with pluH -es in shades of the
same color, or in black.

ette crepe, and chiffon, as well as the
metal gauzes, suggest themselves for
more fanciful boleros. Fine laces run
with silver or gold threads that out
line the pattern, or the metallic lace3,
will make lovely little jackets and add
new finery by way of variety to the
evening or afternoon gown or to the
dance frock.
Even an amateur or a beginner In
needlework ought to have no trouble
in making one of these fascinating ac-
cessories of dress. There are only
two seams to sew at each side, the
shoulder and underarm seam. They
are so short that it will not tax the
patience to fell them by hand. Hand
work is to be recommended for all
these small garments and is impera-
tive when the metal laces are used.
II you are considering what to make,
as an acceptable holiday gift for some
friend, the little bolero presents few
difficulties and many charms

Snowfall. "and am not dead. as you

THAT sounds splendid" said Kit. Il
think It is better than going to sea-"
The next week, when SNOWFALL went
TO the city with his master, Puff and
Kit nailed the poster on the fence and
by moontime the yard was filled with
cats, big and little, their coats all
slick and shining, for the lecture was
considered quite a social event.
When they we're seated Puff said:
I'VE shall have to make the barn
very dark so that the pictures can be
seen, and must request the audience
20 remain quietly seated all through
the lecture; even If anyone should see
a mouse or a rat, please restrain your
selves"
Then he began his lscture and told
them all about the strange sights that
SNOWFALL had told about, and every
little while Kit would turn the picture
machine and show the white kitten
rolling a ball.
Looks Just like him, does it not?'
said one Mrs. Tabby. Il should know
It anywhere" said another. And when
the lecture was ended Kit and Puff
were the social lions Of the neighbor-
hood.

With all this collection Of varied
styles and influences striving to make
themselves felt, the opportunity for
the individual who knows what to
choose for her own particular style
was never so good. In millinery the
display of pleasing hats is creditable
to the many Independent designers
who have created them. There is moth
ing startling in the two hats shown
here, and nothing freakish. They rep
resent legitimate types of real mil
linery, with novelty in the handling of
trimmings to further commend them.

Fortunate Americans

When the American citizen looks
abroad he feels inclined to give thanks
for the possession of system of gov
ernment which, despite partisan diff
ferences, commands universal respect
and confidence. The exceptionally
high standard of intelligence which
here prevails is guaranty against
sudden movements in opposition to
the established order. The vast ma
jority of the American people are
capable of analyzing conditions. They
keep in close touch with the affairs
of the world and with the circum-
stances of their own land They are
growing steadily in political acumen
and are becoming more and more effi-
ciently independent In their determin-
ations. With every peaceful political
revolution they strengthen the nation
al foundations by providing outlets for
sentiments and dissatisfactions.

Absent-Minded Duke.

The grand duke of Saxe-Weimar had
in Germany reputation for perpetrat-
ing bulls" Once he came across two
schoolboys who looked remarkably
alike.
The lads must surely be twins" he
said.

When Snowfall rode into the yard
the cats we're crowded about Kit and
Puff, telling them how wonderful the
lecture was and how much they en-
joyed IL.
SNOWFALL walked toward them to
see what was going on, but no one
noticed him; they were too much in

Finally, one old tabby saw him and
shook hands. or paws, with him.

said, 1T was most interesting. Kit

Snowfall was too much astonished
to reply. After the kittens and cats
had departed he asked Kit and Puff
what Mrs. Tabby had meant.
We gave a lecture on your trip.
said Puff. ITS all very well to sea
things. but 1t is quite another matter
to give an interesting lecture on that
which you have seen." and Kit and
Puff walked away with high heads
leaving poor SNOWFALL gazing after
them.
