The hat at the right is an illustration

THERE was time, and it was not
L so long ago, when If the hat box
contained a hat for the morning, an
other more dressy for the afternoon, and
mayhap another still more elaborate for
special occasions it was considered TO
be well-stocked. But all this is of the
past.
Well-dressed women now realize that
the hat is not an after-thought, that Il
must be selected with more attention
than the frock, and there must be con-
Meeting link. No longer is the hat at
cross purposes with the dress. 1t may
not match the frock even fashion does
not demand this, for very often con-
trast is mo~e artistic But one can trace
a connection. In thought and selection,
between the hat and the dress.
Strange as 1t may seem, just as the
warm days are beginning to'come, wnen

To the Editor Of WonIan'S Page:
Dear Madam II IN stcady -eader Of
much you have helped others, l want to
take the privilege OF asking the following
what does the building and loan associa-
tion mean?
to buy home worth $4,000 ard nay $1,000
cash the remainder would be $1,000. Now.
@onS HSns ,hs proSer% woud BE- mne inside Of
ten years. FtGuring this way would be
his his be be possible" They say II give the build:
ing and loan s. a month for the psri9dd do q
ten years At the end 1t would give me $1,000
Is this so? j. L.
Building and loan associations are
private corporations designed with the
idea of furnishing a safe means for
saving money and of presenting the OPP
portunity to get money at reasonable
rates of interest to buy homes. These as
sociat!ons have served TO promote saving
and to enable persons OF very moderate
means 10 own their own homes
You are a little mixed about the buy
ing of the house. It is true the building
and loan association will assume $4,000
mortgage on the home you pay $1,000
down on, provided you take out an
amount of shares whose matured value
is $4,000 But you have not included in
terest on this money. The building and
loan system of loaning is on the share
basis. You pay 81 month into the as
sociation for one share whose matured
or paid-up value is 5000. Thus you see
$40 a month does just give you the
necessary number of shares for a $4,000
mortgage. But there is your Interest.
In addition to the $40 a month on your
shares you must pay $40 a month in
terest to the association for the assuming
OF that $1,000 mortgage This is at the
ate of per cent. This makes $50 a
month you are paying instead of $40
The average time II takes for build
ing and loan share to mature is from
ten and one-half to twelve or possibly
thirteen years. Let US say your par
ticular shares mature at eleven years
Then your little home all paid up would
in the end cost you $3.50, counting the
$1,000 you paid down. The matureu
value of the ten shares on which you
will have paid only $500 at that time
will be $4,000. and the difference in these
two sums virtually goes in to the buying
of your home.
II you give the building and loan as
sociation SIS a month that means you
have five shares. the pa!d-up value Ci
each of which Is $500. As have said. II
takes these shares from ten and one-half
to twelve years or possibly thirteen al
the most to. mature, according to the me-
earnings OF the company. You will re-

THE KAISER, THE
BEAST or BERLIN"

II If Is humanity possible for a
true bloOded American to witness
THE KAISER, THE BEAST OF
BERLIN and not feel the blood
boil with resentment, it has not yet
been proven at the showing of the
most astounding picture at the var
iOus theatres throughout the eoun-
try. This arOusing, heart gripping
photoplay Is coming to the Tabb
Theatre Tuesday, July 9th to stir
the patriotism of local people and
make them realize just what it will
mean to America if this war is not
won.
"The Mad. Dog OF fotsdam''
threatens dire vengeance upon
America if he wins the present ter
nble conflict, and so it is well to
see what his fIendish hordes have
accomplished in Belgium, where
cities and towns were ruthlessly de-
vastated, women despoiled and babies
murdered. Ignoring all the laws of
God and man, this maniaeal beast
surges forward, spreading frightful-
ness and terror wherever he stalks,
and seeking to strike terror into the
hearts of all people who oppose him.
"After this l will stand no non
sense from America" said the Kai-
ser to Ambassador Gerard before
the declaration of war by President
Wilson. And now with frothing
hate, the erazed monarch promises
America the same inhuman treat
ment accorded Belgium if he is
successful in beating down the de-
Tense of our allies on the Western
front. These truths are so force
fully presented in @THE KAISER,
THE BEAST OF BERLIN" that
the spectator cannot help but feel
renewed determination to win at all
costs, if only to protect our own
women and children from the lust

! full horrors Of the German hordes.
While serving as the best sort OF
American propaganda, the produce
ton is a dramatic story that holds
the audiences in awe during its
telling, calling forth frequent out
bursts of anger and resentment
against this maniac war lord, and
again tremendous storms Of APP
plause when Americas part in the
war ;s shown.
Daring the invasion of Belgium,
the story introduces a giant black
smith whose phenomenal strength is
a marvel of wonderment to the spec
tators. In his efforts to save his
son, who has thrown horseshoe at
German officer, he is set upon by
eight sturdy Huns, and energies the
victor, only to be shot in the back
by another officer, and the boys
right arm cut off-"an example to
others who might seek to resist the

however, the officer who shot the
blacksmith and manned his son, is
caught in the home of the frenzied
smithy ands strangled to death, af-
terward being thrown into the flames
of a burning building.
