Vigorous Protest Against
Repeal of Trolley Ordinance

Mechanicsburg, Pa, Aug. 29.-Pro-
fessor a. H. Eye, of Mechanicsburg, in
lea1et just issued reviews the con-
troversy between the borough of Me
chanicsburg and the Valley Railways
Company and vigorously protests
against a compromise measure now
under consideration by the borough
council, which would lower the an
nual tax by repeating the ordinance
of 1911. After carefully reviewing
the various points in the controversy
between the company and the borough
since 1901, Professor Eye concludes as
follows:
How can council expect fair play
from the Railways Company when
they see that the company has granted
fares to Marysville, a distance of 9A
miles, for 10 cents, while to Mechan-
icsburg, a distance of 81 miles. the

RESENT WAR STYLES
 IN PARIS FASHIONS

New fashioned for women have raised a discussion in Paris as to the propriety of the imitation of the "poilu's" uniform by either men or women.
 Women's hats in the form of the Adrien helmet worn by the French soldiers in the trenches have made their appearance for the second. time, while some dressmakers have gone so far as to ornament gowns with braid in the form, disposition and colors of the 'fourragere," or siguil- lettes that adorn the uniforms of regi- ments and battallions cited in orders.
 Stuffs in the colors of the war cross fibbon-red and green-are also very largely used, and cloaks in khaki with profusion of pockets, recall the jacket of Tommy Atkins, are being prepared to be launched for spring.
 This attempt to give a more mili- tary. tone to women's wear is attrib- uted to the dressmaker and milliner erely condemned by part of the French press as commercial dodge that does not harmonize with the general feeling. Khaki, horizon blue, the red and green braid of the "fourragere'' and the Adrien helmet, they maintain, should be sacred to the fighting men.
 The helmet, after failing once, is again meeting with poor success, and it is held that the war cross co1ors in skirts will not stand the contrast with the ever-increasing black.

Propagating Roses
 By Fall Cuttings

Washington, D. C., Nov. 9.-Climb ing roses are propagated mostly. by hardwood cuttings made in the fall, many cut flowers roses may be propa- gated in the same way.
 Hardwood cuttings are taken from the dormant wood of winter, while softwood, or greenwood, cuttings are taken when the plants are in active growth. To make a hardwood cut ting, good strong, well-ripened shoots of the past summers growth should be selected These are better if cut be- tween the time the leaves fall and freezing weather. If left until after cold weather there is danger of in- jury from freezing. They should be cut into pieces of or 6 inches, with the upper cut just above a bud. and should be tied in bundles with raffia or with. string that does not rot easily if exposed to dampness. After label ing plainly they should be buried in moist sand, tops down, and placed in a cool cellar or buried in the open ground below danger of frost. They should be planted in the open ground in the spring about or a little before complaining time, so that one or two eyes, or not over one inch of the cut ting is above ground, which will leave or inches in the ground. Care must be taken not to injure the cal fuses that have formed while the cut tings were buried. Sometimes better results are obtained by planting in partial shade.
 Frequently cuttings made in winter or early spring do nearly as we'll as those made in the fall, but in the North there is always danger of the wood being injured during the winter.

France Is Watching
 American Election

Paris, Nov. 9-The American cleo tion is being followed with the deep est interest, the news having the place Of honor in most morning papers. The commentors, mindful of the dra- matic surprise of yesterday, when the supposedly certain Hughes victory was turned into possible defeat, are reluctant to commit themselves.
 The majority of the comment Is similar to that of Stephen Pichone, in the Petit Journal, who expresses the belief that the victory of either can didate will have little effect on Amer 1can policy as far as the big questions interesting France are concerned. It IS also pointed out that the present administration will remain in any event, in power until March and that many things may happen be- tween now and then.
