Why Men Wear Hats

Men themselves do not know why
they wear hats. Hats aren't orna-
mental. They do not keep of the rain.
A mans hat is legacy Of tradition,
brutalized In its descent from the age
of adornment. Straw hats are the least
awful.
The derby, the iron lid Of common
phraseology, is a tragedy, and the silk
hat is useful only to lend dignity to
men who otherwise might be un-
dignifed. This dignity is traditional
rather than real. Bridegrooms, under
takers and members Of Congress need
all the dignity they can command. So
they keep the silk hat handy.
Spring, which brings the straw hat,
is welcomed by men, since it removes
the hideous necessity of wearing other
sorts of hats The straw hat rouses a
dim memory in the blood Of the days
Of garlands. It may be worn with a
bright band. On the whole, 1t makes
life little easier for those who
haven't the courage to go without hats
at all.-Philadelphia Public Ledger.

shipments were curtailed. Shipments
to Russia in Europe for the 1917 fiscal
year totalled s42S,6S8,1 ,107. In the one

S116,705.346 only. For the 1917 year,
exports to the United Kingdom

New-York tribune., 1918-08-04

years ago, it was because the Rus
sian government had the credit to
buy with-not the goods-and made
no question about the price. 1t had
to have, and lacking the goods to
buy with could buy on the faith Of
its promises. And then the Siberian
door that is now closed was open.
And we, before we had got into the
war, had goods to spare OH credit.
We did not lack for the shipping
that now is not. The ways to- Ger
many and Austria were not then
open. If Germany now declines to
trade-it being easier to steal what
little there is to be had-there is
so much the less left for Russia to
sell to US, and so much the less dis
position on our part to send moro
goods for Germany's more stealing.
Thus the present programme
amounts to an attempt to sell what
we don't want to sell to people
that has nothing to sell us or to
buy with from US; that, if it had
something, would have the wrong
thing; that can't pay now or secure
ly promise later payment; that is
inaccessible to any one but our en-
emies, and especially inaccessible to
US; that were it accessible to any
Entente power, would be more &C
cessible to others than to us; and
would not do its trading with Us
whose only case for trading with US
is that it has no case for trading
with anybody.
