greens will be shown and few blues will also be seen. There are really no new cclors at all this spring although those that there are, are very good locking.
 Like in the derbies, there will be a very few fancy bows. They will near ly all be very plain and worn on the sides Some of the bands will be diff ferent color than the rest Of the hat, but most of them will be of the same shade.
 In summing Up the styles in soft hats for spring, the best thing that can be said IS that almost everything that has been worn flor the past few seasons will again be worn this spring. There will be high crowns, low crowns, narrow brims, wide brims, pencil curls, flat brims, turn-up brims, in fact most everything but fiat telescopes.
 In straw hats, the styles worn last summer will be again in vogue this year. The on1y change is that the crowns are a trihe lower and brims trife wider. The bands will be neither high nor low |just medium. There will be few fancy bands and the bows will be a trihe larger than usual The principal braids will be sennits, milans, mackinaw, splits and yachts.
 |.s On the whole, straw hats will remain used mainly. In Bankoks, telescopes and fedoras will share the honors.
 There is tendency to push some of the more expensive grades of Panamas this year.
 In the whole. straw hats will remain very mieh as thev were last year
Arizona republican., 1916-03-29

When mems spring hats are the sub ject of . discussion among fastidiuus dressers, one may be sure to hear a goodly number of varied opinion. 70 predict one style or even a few styles that will be the most popular is hard task. It is muddled-up situation. Most everything seems to be in good taste, yet nothing seems to be a favorite. There will be greater variety of styles displayed this spring than perhaps ever before, but there will be very few new creations among them.
 For early spring the derby will again be worn. The styles are so similar to those worn during the winter season that a man may be tempted not to change, though his winter "top-piece" may be "battered' and down and out" from the rough weather and usage. The crowns will be neither extremely high or extremely low, nor will the brims be unusually wide or unusually narrow. They are in most instances very con- servative. A few tapering crowns will be shown but there will not be an over- abundance of them For the men of mature ages there will be quite a few square crowns. Fancy bands and bows on derbies are little passe There will be few tobacco browns shown, but the majority will be submitted in plain black.
 {, A little later when the thermometer rises and when the birds begin to chirp their spring lullabies, soft hats will begin to make their appearance Perhaps the first of the very few new styles that will be seen is the Alpine hat, which is

similar to the hats worn by the Swiss and Italian mcuntain-climters It is a mighty clever idea and should take well, although at first it may look a little odd to us. This Alpine hat has quite an extreme crown, being very high with a slight fedora crease. The brim is very narrow, which in contrast to the crown, makes an unordinary appearance and something a bit different than we have seen
 There will be almos. total absence of telescope shapes. Fedoras are the thing, absolutely. The fedora crease will be worn by both the conservative and radi- cal dressers. It IS the one thing that we can say with certainty will be shown by every natter.
 Another thing that men will do with their hats this spring that they have not done for several years is to turn one side of the brim down and the other side up. This is on wide-shaped fedoras. Most of us remember the craze for turn- down brims about ten years ago. And at the same time we will remember how becoming the hats looked that way. Our best dressers will surely approve of this feature. ser
 The color range is unlimited, though perhaps the most popular are different shades of green, brown and gray. Pearl grays are especially good for early spring. They are deserving of good run for they are handsome and look well on almost all types and sizes of men. Browns will be much in demand, but will perhaps be hard to obtain because of the dye situation. A great many dark

If Cat Had Been Dog, He
Could Decide, Says Judge

London, Dec. 15.-Because q cat is
not dog, Magistrate de Grey was un-
able to decide the ownership of a
Persian cat, which a woman at West
London said was being detained by a
neighbor.
Now a cat is not a dog and a dog
Is not cat" said the Magistrate. "If
1t was a dog I could have it brought
into court and l might be able to
give 1t some sort of Solomon's judg-
ment by seeing which person 1t went
to. But cat is a lonesome creature,
as Kipling has pointed out, and if
the animal were brought here and told
to go to its owner it probably would
do nothing but sit still and lick it's
paws. It's very wrong of the cat, but
that's it's way"
However, the application for a sum-
mons for the neighbor was granted.

Soldiers Brides in
Happy Tent Homes

Ell Paso. Tex, Dec. Is. - How to
have a honeymoon and be a soldier

troit guardsmen, who have con-

in the main camp here. The two girls
have gone merrily to housekeeping in
their army dovecotes, and apparently
are as happy as any brides could be.

troit. The bridegrooms are First Ser

PROUD OF THEM.

We take pride in the fact that every
Republican Senator in the United
States Senate voted against the So
called Eight Hour bill which was
passed by the United States Con-
gress last week at the demand of the
railroad brotherhoods. We are glad
to know that these Republican Sena-
tors had manliness and self-respect
enough not to be driven by threats or
political eXpediency into any consent
to legislation which is the most
revolutionary in the annals of Con-
gress and is utterly subsersive of our
Republican institutions. President
Wilson ard his boot-licking Congress-
men may call it "move to save the
business of the country; but un-
biased folks will call it a disgusting
move to catch labor votes. We hope
the Republican party will be ready to
go down to a thousand defeats before
it yields to such disgusting political
tactics.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1916-09-09
ARE WE AT WAR?

"He kept US out of war" Yet the
Democrats of the Senate with the full
approval of the Secretary of the
Treasury-who happens to be also a
son-in-law of the man who "kept US
out of war"-propose bond issue of
$130,000,000 to meet the expenses in
cident to the mobilization of the Nat
ional Guard and to pay the cost of
keeping them there until January /,
1917.
Nobody outside of Heaven and the
White House knows why the Guards
men were ever sent to the border in
the first place or why they are to be
kept there-and thus far no informa-
ton has been forthcoming from either
place. There is more than a suspi-
cion that the mobilization was ordered
for some obscure political purpose not
entirely disconnected with the Wilson
campaign for reelection. Whatever
the motive, the bill of expense runs to
a pretty figure. To meet it, the coun-
