THE TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION

What is probably the most unique
and most perfect organization in the
world is the printers union. Men Of
this profession make good wages,
generous contributions are made to
a general fund. This fund is used
to support most magnificent home
at Colorado Springs to take care OF
those of the profession who need san
itarium treatment it Is also used in
the payment of pensions to the aged
of the profession, and when a lock-
out occurs in any part of the country,
union printers who are fighting for
union principles are given small
wage to pay actual living expenses.
One member of the Ardmore union
receives each month a check for $2O
out of the pension fund of the union.
This member has been union man
for many years, he is now at an
age where he does not have a regular
position, and the union pays him a
very generous pension, and pays it
promptly every month.

OBSERVANCE oE SUNDAY.

Moving picture shows are not i'm
moral any more on Sunday evening
than they are on Tuesday evening.
If they are immoral at all, they are
immoral all of the time. If they
are not inherently immoral they
should be studied from the likely
effect they would have upon the COM
munity if permitted to be open Sun
day evening. In many, many cities
of the country they are considered a
moral asset and utilized as such, just
as in many, many cities outdoor
sports in the afternoon are so con-
sidered, not alone by laymen, but
by thoughtful and watchful clergy
men. The old New England habit Of
thought and restraint has passed, or
has at least been impaired suffic
iently to compel the consideration of
a new vision. 1t should become,
therefore, the duty of our leaders of
thought to approach the city, not
in the light of the conservation of
the old forms, as much as we might
like to, but in the light of conserv-
ing the contentment and character Of
the community as it has come to be.

CRITICISM is UNJUST.

Complaints are made against the
legislature at every session. The
lawmakers are charged with an in
ability to agree upon anything, each
bill introduced is loaded down with
amendments, and persons who read
after the legislature are inclined to
criticise. The same condition is
true in every other state and mem
bers Of the legislature are always
made fruitful subjects for Jokes.
As a matter of fact, this criticism
is unjust An imperfect people ought
not to expect perfect Legislature.
The people back at home fight in
their lodges, in their churches, in
their commercial organizations, and
just as long as men differ in their
opinions and have red blood in their
veins, they will scrap in their or
ganiZations.
The legislature is a part of us,
they are of the same flesh and bone,
they are our legislature, and we ought
to have more of feeling of loyalty
and exercise less criticism.

A NEEDED INVESTIGATION.

lican senators have repeatedly insinu-

back of the ship purchase bill
Senator Townsend of Michigan
charged in effect that William G. Nc.
Adoo, secretary of the treasury, and
Paul NJ. Warburg of the federal re-
serve board, were engaged in cor
rupt conspiracy with Kuhn, Loeb &,
Co. and the Hamburg American
Steamship company to sell the Ger
man steamships now in American
ports to the United States govern
ment. To be sure, the senator from
Michigan was careful to avoid direct
accusations. What he charged he
charged by innuendo, but there could
be no mistaking his meaning.
Senator Burton of Ohio practically
endorsed the Townsend accusations
when he offered his resolution for an
investigation of the influences sup
porting the measure. Both the SEN
ator from Michigan and the senator
from Ohio. in their efforts to show
that the administration bill was
spawned in rascalty, had the moral
support of Senator Penrose of Penn

means were taken to accelerate it!
1t is a curious fact that no other
measure presented by the admins
tration has encountered such fierce
hostility as this proposal to spend
$3O,000,0OO or $40,O0O,000 for ships
that could be used Immediately to
relieve the commercial blockade and

vision, nor currency and banking re-
form, nor the Panama tolls repeal,
law, nor any other administration
measure has met such desperate op-

accounted for by fear of "a socialistic
experiment" or by fear that the
presidents policy might lead the gov
ernment into international complica-

FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS

The Ardmorete appreciated the
letter written by Mr.. Mckinney of
Durant a member of the board of
directors of the federal reserve bank
at Dallas.
We are glad our information con
cerning the rent being paid was
wrong, but the main contention of
ours, that the state banks had been
favored by not being allowed to take
stock in the reserve banks, is not
denied The federal government fore
ed the national banks to take stock
and will force them to share in the
losses. The first statements issued
by these banks showed figures in the
profit and loss account, while the last
statements have these figures elimi-
mated.
The discussion has brought from
Mr.. Mckinney some facts concerning
the banks, which he makes very
plain, and which will be a matter OF
information to most people. We feel
very friendly to the federal reserve
plan, we are looking to it to accom-
plish many good things If the system
is not eliminated and if the laws
are changed from time to time to
remedy the weak points, the banks
should in time be able to pay eX-
penses and to do a service to the
country. As matters stand now, the
banks are at a very heavy expense,
their loans are limited they can not
earn enough money to pay expenses,
and when assessments are made on
the stock the national bankers are
going to make fight to save their
stockholders money and the con-
gress must listen to their demands.
There is too much expensive machin-
cry coupled with too many limitations
to permit these banks to prosper and
they must be made to give a greater
service before they can earn money.
The Dallas bank pays $666 a month
for rent, it pays its governor $1,000
a month, and this ratio of expenses
demands a great earning ability.
What is true of the Dallas bank
is true of the other banks, except
that the governors of other banks
receive a higher salary. The one in
st. Louis receives 100000 a year.
No criticism is to ~ attached to
the directors of the reserve banks,
They are trying to START off a cum
bersome piece of machinery and try
ing to make it of service, and it
will take time and patience and
ability to ever make these banks
worth much to the public.
Bankers have their line of credit
already established with the great
banking institutions of the country,
they get money cheaper from them
than they do from the reserve banks,
they get it more readily for the rea-
son that it is based upon confidence,
while the reserve bank loans are
hedged in by laws which must not
be violated.

WHY ADVERTISED GOODS
COST ESS

The larger the business, the less
the cost of production.
1t costs less per pound to make
100 pounds of butter a day than to
make 10 pounds.
This is true of all manufacturing,
and it explains one reason why the
manufacturer of an advertised line
can put into it better quality than
the maker of an unknown line.
Advertising, by rapidly building
business, cuts the costs-to the user
as well as to the manufacturer.
You are saving money when you
choose advertised merchandise. -

IT is wonderful what miracles of i'm
prove ment in looks can be brought
about by means of the coiffure and its
decorations. Only beautiful and au-
dacious youth can afford to wear
plain, severe styles of hairdressing.
Waves that mitigate the austerity of
straight lines, curls which suggest
femininity, are almost invariably be-
coming And aside from becomingness.
q wellgroomed appearance (more evi-
dent in the coiffura than anywhere)
has compelling charm in itself.
When the lest and most tasteful of
hair ornaments are worn, to set off the
chic coiffure. a chance is given for the
exercise of individual taste. There are
many pretty hair ornaments, unpreten-
tious and elegant, that any clever
woman can fashion for herself. Near
ly all of the new ones are made Of
strands of small rhinestones. used in
single or double bands, about the head,
in the manner of Greek bands. But
with them flowers, feathers, or velvet
ornaments are used.
Two of the best designs are shown
here and one hardly needs more than
the picture to be able to go about
copying them. One consists of rhine
stone band sewed to a fine silkcovered
wire which terminates in a loop at
each end. A hairpin thrust through
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1915-02-05

these loops holds the band in place
and is concealed under a. strand OF
hair.
Fastened on the band at one side is
cluster Of grayish blue full-blown
roses of velvet, with small sprays of
tiny rose foliage in sage green. One
might wear such subdued colors with
almost any costume. The sparkle OF
the rhinestones gives life to the pretty
affair." and altogether its beauty makes
an instant appeal.
The second ornament is made of a
narrow bias strip of cerise velvet,
hemmed in a very narrow hem at each
side, into which fine shirring wire
is run. 1t is mounted with rhinestones
supported by silk-covered wire, as in
the first ornament described. The vel
vet terminates in long pointed ear
outlined with a strand of rhinestones.
Rhinestones are to be had set in tiny
bands. and sell at a moderate price by
the yard in dry goods stores Other
bead passementerieS and strands of
pearl beads are used for making hair
ornaments, also narrow fancy ribbons
and braids. If in making the last orna-
ment described, bright green velvet,
instead of cerise color, is used the
handsomest of decorations for white
hair is the result.
