ROOT BALKS PLAN

REPUBLICANS GRUMBLE

ALBANY. July 2s. - President Root
surprised the entire Constitutional Con-

as q result OF the conference with the
Republican members of the Committee
on the Organization of the Legislature.
that he was opposed not only to the con-
vention doing the actual work of APP
~portionment but also opposed to any
change whatever in those sections Of
the existing Constitution which deal
with the composition OF the Legislature.
1t has been generally assumed that
the convention would adopt a rule Of
epportionment in place Of the present
one. eve IL it did not actually appor-
ton under the rule. but Mr.. Root has
set his face firmly against this. and the
convention hardly knows what to make

Republican members do not want a
party controversy With Mr.. Root. but
when they defeated the Morgan J.
O'Brien amendment two weeks ago, they
understood hat they had committed
themselves to the policy that no lumber

por9ted in any single municipality
should dominate the state. in the State
Senate. at least.
There was u wide difference OF opin-
lon among the Republicans as to whether
the same policy should apply to the As

over to the French. dropping on his
stomach as before. In his hand was
an object, dark green one, with tin

bottle Of champagne swiped while the
Germans were in Reims.
Here's your health, fellows" the
German said. Drink hearty!" And
back he ran.

burglar. You are giving us back our
own champagne!"
"Oh. that's all right" the German
replied, your cigars were made in
Germany. l recognize the stencil"
Later in the day the German was
killed and the news was shouted
across the road. He simply would
keep sticking his head above the
trench during business hours. But in
the night a wreath of flowers, gath
cred by the Frenchmen from heaven
knows were, and at no one knows
what risks. fell into the trench where
he was wont to have his place.
All is not cutting and slashing and
shooting and gore; the spice of good
humor and the milk of human kind
ness often, in this fighting, lessen the
sting of hatred between the races and
of which one hears so much.

COLLARS OF WHITE SATIN
Make a Charming Addition, Especially
to the Gown Made Up Of Dark
Blue Serge.

There is already much speculation
about the joining Of soft silks and far
ing circular skirts for spring. but II
both remain in fashion after the
French openings. which are scheduled
for February as usual. no doubt the
designers will find some good way out
Of the difficulty. Much can be done
by borrowing from the ideas used In
evening gowns made of silk net, which
now have flaring five and six-yard
skirts held out by thick bullion cord.
A cable cord of velvet or silk can re-
place this one on silk street skirts.
The advance fashions in dark blue
show the usage of white satin In the
way of wrinkled stock collars and
wide turnover cuffs, in wide belts Of
white kid with pearl buckles. and even
in white satin hens when the nature
of the frock allows one. This is a
good idea for the woman to assimilate
il she is given to wearing dark blua.
II would brighten that serge frock she
has now and make it bit different
from what it has been.

FOES FORGET HATE
Life in Trenches Makes Friends
of Opposing Armies.
French and Germans Formulate Rules,
and Between the Hours of Killing
Exchange Cigars and Bottles
Of Wine.
By WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS.


With the French Army at the Front
AT places here in the Argonne the
French and German trenches are so
close together that in the weeks the
two armies have been thus face to
face the soldiers are, after a fashion,
personally acquainted with each other.
Here the fighting has become sys-
tematized and follows a routine. At
certain sections of the trenches the
French and Germans have reached an
agreement that before a certain hour
in the morning there is to be no kill
ing; in the opposing trenches the men
are to be allowed to wash up and
make their toilet for the day After
the gong taps, figuratively speaking,
any head showing above the level of
the ground gets promptly taken off.
Rock battles often take place be-
tween the opposing sides. The men
grow tired of having nothing to shoot
at for hours at time and in order to
amuse themselves they lombard each
other without the thrower exposing
his person to the bullets of the en-
envy.
At times the enemies. however. be-
come almost friendly.
Say, over there!" German shout
ed from his trench. Have you guys
got anything to smoker"
'Sure!" the chorus came back from
the French. Have you?"
Not crumb!"
Too bad. You ought to write to
the kaiser"
Gimme the makin's."
Come and get EN-"
A giant of young fellow stuck his
head and shoulders above the ground,
placed his hands on the edge of the
trench and vaulted out on the side to-
ward the French. A month-old fiaxen
beard stood out about a very round
face. Mud covered his formerly gray
sh-bluish-greenish uniform. A little
round, visorless fatigue cap made him
look like young Santa Claus. Stoop-
ing, he ran swiftly across the high
way which separated the trenches at
this point, and, falling fiat on his
stomach, peered down into the en-
emy's trench.
Where's them cigars?" he de-
manded.
Here they are" a Frenchman re-
piled. You deserve them. Six, and
they're worth a louis apiece"
'Merci!" said the German, as he
scurried back to his burrow.

MEANS GREAT SAVING
PRETTY NECKWEAR THAT MAY
BE MADE At HOME.
Somewhat Expensive to Buy Ready to
Wear, But Materials Are Cheap
and the Work Really Amounts
to Little.

Never before was there such a de-
mand for pretty neckwear; in fact.
the fancy. for it amounts to a craze.
Going through stock of neckwear a
few days ago was astonished at the
simplicity of some models and could
not help thinking how much money
might be sated il the material were
bought and tke pretty accessories be
made up at home, writes Helen Howe
In the Washington Star True. one can
buy inexpensive neckwear that is very
pretty; but alas! only Until it has
been Numbered. Then 1t is poor look.
ing and sleazy. The better qualities
OF neckwear are quite expensive. For
example. a collar marked at $3.50
found was made of lace sold at so
cents yard at the counter. The two
were exactly the same. both in tint
and quality. AS one yard makes the
collar the saving is obvious. 1t could
be made In half an hour. too.
The lace is folded in two and nine
inches marked of at each end. There
1t is mitered to form the corners. The
lace between the corners is plated
or gathered to fit the collar on the
waist. A strip of lawn doubled will
make the raw edges neat and give a
firm hold for sewing in

ity will cost so cents. the cheaper
kinds a quarter. while half a yard OF
the material will make half a dozen
collars in different sizes because the
material is so very wide. For 60 cents
a yard a very sheer organdie can be
bought. The collars are made double.
The usual finish is a picot edge with
or without row of hemstitching just
inside. This can be sent to the hem.
stitchers to be done. In preparing the
collar for hemstitching the raw edges
are placed together and basted halt
an inch from these edges. This is the
guide for the hemstitcher. When re.
turned the raw edges are cut away
and the result is a picot edge. II an

FIND INTEREST IN SOMETHING
Friends Will Soon Tire Of the Woman
Who Avows Life to Be
Bore.

The woman who Is not interested
in things in general or something in
particular is an uninteresting COM
panion. No matter how beautiful she
may be, her charm will be minimized
or of short duration.
The victim of ennui or Indifference
victimizes everybody about her Her
friends may look upon her and admire
her beauty, but she is decidedly unin-
teresting. and even little bit Of her
society is generally an overdose. To
be 'blase Is not to be interesting.
II you are weary of everything in
life you need the attention of rhysi-
clan: there is something wrong with
you, mentally and physically.
Something new and interesting in
this world is cropping out every min
ute. The most interesting people are
those who see things and get all pos
sible pleasure out of them. An ex.
hibition Of indifference to things about
you Is not an evidence Of Intelligence.
