institutions In that and other cities,

Evans st was a mans duty to sign

proceeding he made of IL That has
now passed with other customs OF
long ago. The woman manages the
home, and is supposed to be able to
figure so that a certain sum of money
may keep the establishment going for
a certain length of time. No doubt
each woman has her own system: but
there should be one basic rule for all
pay by check.
There are many reasons why she
should pay by check. 1t Is more
business-like. A check is a receipt
no other IL needed. A check-book IL
an incontestable record. A check is
safe.
THE progress of woman has never
been as marked as at the present day
Thoroughly to establish not only her
business sense. but her comfort. her
responsibility and her Independence,

count. In my experience. l find the
majority of women know very little
about banking even though they may
be starting a business; that is, unless
they have some training In an office
where they have come in contact with
banking.
The first thing a woman ought to
know Is never to write a check in q

II would seem, for ribbon Is used on
nearly all things that are new and
fashionable. Not alone on the little
things, such as dress accessories but
also on gowns and coats One debu-

that was entirely OF five-lnch moire

for some time past. and will continue
to be fashionable in one style OF rib

Possibly the latest FAD In ribbon
form is the sport coat. or top coat, to
take the place of the silk sweater Of

when developed is an attractive pat

DRESS
BY ANNE RITTTNHOUSE.

New York. Feb. 23.--That pleasant
and elastic weave OF material which is
commonly called Jersey cloth had Its
origin when Lilly LanRtry was the
toast VI England. In the dawn OF her
rare beauty she came over from the
Isle Of Jersey to be one of the best
known members of the kings set, and
the material which she used for a
long bodice to show off the perfection
OF her figure was not only woven es-
pecially for her, but named Jersey"
in her honor.
In its heyday this garment was call
ed Jersey, and by that name IT con-
tinued through a sporadic career un-
I'll present relncarnation changed its
name. Although the cloth is jersey
the garment has been called a sweat
er, a hideous name. forsooth, one that
surely was not invented in a pleasant
or artistic moment
Two years ago the world OF women
went quite mad over these thin col
ored Jackets made Of knitted silk. an
CORA wool and crocheted zephyrs. Last
summer, the fashion for them ~eached
a height that brought out all the love-
Hest dyes that the world could afford.
The steep prices did not deter women
from buying them: better and more
necessary garments were sacrificed
by those women with q small income.
Every field and beach. every hotel
piazza and shipdeck was a background
for the prismatic hues.
Women in mass made kaletdo-
scope look neutral in tone and n
Turner sunset effective.
They Become Ambitious.
And the jersey cloth that was used
In these sweaters took an ambitious
turn and is now rivaling serge and ga
bardine for suits. 1t was this kind OF
soft cloth that finally ousted many of
the knitted varieties Of sweaters and
attached to itself huge muffler with
brilliantly colored ends.
Then the tailors offered skirt TO
go with the coat, and women who
were spending the late autumn in The
country took up the idea In a ginger
~ way It has lain fallow through
ont the winter, TO be resurrected as a
smart idea for spring.

FOR THE COMMON GooD.-In
time of much war talk, let US discuss
peace a little while.
The American branch Of the
League of Nations to Enforce Peace
will hold it's first annual national as
semblage in Washington, May 1921
The league is not a stop-the-war
movement, neither is it an anti-pre-
paredness organization, nor is it a
peace-at-any-price endeavOr.
1t proposes to secure the mainte-
nance Of peace after the close of the
present war by the use of economic
and military force.
It urges that the time has come
to devise and create a working union
Of sovereign nations to establish
peace among themselves and to
guarantee it by all known and avail
able sanctions at their command, to
the end that civilization may be con-
served, and the progress Of mankind
in comfort, enlightenment and hap
piness may continue.
It proposes a judicial tribunal for
hearing and judging upon the merits
of questions arising between sigma
tory powers, and a council of con-
Citation for hearing questions not so
settled; a union of all signatory
powers against any one Of their num-
Der that goes to war or commits
acts of hostility, and conferences be-
tween the signatory powers to for
mulate and cOdify the rules of inter-
national law.

for the common good.
SHOCKlNG.-Mr. Zabriskie - Ed
ward G. Zabriskie - is principal of
Washington Irving high school,
which is in the city called New York.
Mr.. Zabriskie has lately been
throwing a fit because of what he
term sthe 'inhammatory, unpatriOtiC
talk" uttered at meetings of the La
Dor Forum in his hallOwed hall Of
learning.
Somebody at Labor Forum meet
ings distributed a circular containing
a poem written by chap who had
killed a man, it seems. (COuld he be
referring to Joe Hill, l. W. W. poet,
who at least was convicted and exc
cuted for killing a man, whether he
did or not?) Somebody else had ad-
vocated birth control But, horrors
upon horrors, somebody had recited
a parody on America!
Mr.. Zabriskie may or may not be
suffering from the delusiOn that
America" is our national anthem
but, anyway, here is the parody
that shocked him:
My country, thou shalt be
Sweet land of liberty
Where justice reigns;
When darkness turns to light,
When wrong is turned to right,
When truth asserts her might
And breaks her chains.

MINING RECEIVERS FROM STRIKE
United States Geological Survey Makes
Report on Colorado Coal.

According to a recent report of c. f.
Lesher of the United States Geological
Survey, coal mining in Colorado has al
most fully recovered from effects OF the
strike in 1913 and 1914.
His report shows that the production
of 1915 was S,624,9sO short tons, valued
at Sl3, 500 ,264-an increase of 454, ,42l
tons, or 5R per cent. The increase is
due largely to the resumption of opera
tion of mines, especially in Fremont
county, that were completely shut down
in 1914 by the strike.
Last year the number of men en-
ployed increased from lO,O9s in 1914 TO
1882 in 1915, but the average number
of days of work decreased from pa to
1914.
The average daily output per men was
3.5s tons and the average yearly output
was Cos tons, as compared with 3.32 and
500 tons, respectively, in 1914.
