An individual usually gets what

therefore if a town has blind

these things. That We live IN a
town which want these thlnEs
land is ruled by this element IS
beyond question:
If the time ever comes when
the people Of Kentwood want d
cIpannr and better town, then we
will have it, but not before "A

Of the torpedoing Of the steamship

it was German act of deliberate
Unfriendliness," as lingo interests
we're trying to make at appear, are
convinced on later and fuller infOT-
nation that the Germans acted, &C
cording to their Interpretation of it,
with more than usual regard for all
technicalities of international law.
Circumstances Of the incident, hap
pening just when they did, regarded
almost as a good sign.
It was still considered today that
William P. Frye and Leelanaw affairs
fell much under the same head, and
implied a German-American diplo-
matte difference of opinion concern
ing Germany's right to destroy an
American contraband-carTying ship,
as well as it's contraband cargo.

collar. Only 254 yards 3s-inch ma terial are required to develop the blouse in average size. No lining is required, and the neck may be finished with the high collar that is so much under discussion just now or with the turn down effect that yields not a tit- tie to any rival.
 / If the V-shaped neck is desired the home dressmaker must remember that the neck edge is not to be cut out un- til after the hem is made, and then the line of cutting must follow single small "o'' perforations.
 Two sections of the pattern only, the back and the collar. are laid on 1epgthwise fold of the material. The eyer, being laid on Iengthwise cIosswiseS edge of the crepe. Next comes the back. opposite which is the cuff. and to the right of the back is the collar The pfecing for the front may be laid along the .seIvage edge opposite the collar and just to the left of the sleeve. Finally comes the stay, laid crosswise of the material.
 Provision is made for short sleeve, but it is doubtful if the woman who is making up something for advance Au- tuTnn wear would wish anything except a long sleeve finished with self-cuf.
 High colYared blouses are coming into their own again with nearing cool weather, and all of the best styles show convertible collars. The design shown here is also good for development in silk or linen.,

 The death of ex-MayOr Lewis J. Powers of Springfield removes man of a sort which used to be common in this city from 25 to 50 years ago, but which is now becoming rare even in New England. MT. Powers was so fine a specimen of the type that his history is interesting outside the Connecticut valley, in which he was for 50 years a figure of importance in business and politics
 Born in 1887, with an ancestry which reached back 200 years ito the founding of Massachusetts, MT. Pow CTS was the son of a truckman, and began life as a newsboy at eight years old, By 13 he had a regular long hours job in a news room under the old Massasoit House and such educa- ton as he had he picked up as he went along, from men, affairs and newspapers. Yet he became one of the leading paper manufacturers of the country, was a good mayor of his citya useful member of the council to two governors, and was a Heading and influential figure in the business and political life of his town and his state, in his old age, the sort of first citizen who was loved and respected.
 If a boy has to make a start under such circumstances in New ' ork city today the social workers, and reform CTS throw up their hands in horror. They rescue him from work and keep him in school until he is IA by law, they keep him out of certain employ mentS after that age, and they build settlements and clubs and gymna- siums for him later, on the theory that society must do many things fo1 him that he can't do for himself be
