0.fords Dominate Shoe Styles.

Pumps are out and oxfords are In,
according to the Woman's Home
Companion, which says:
TIN style there's the, oxford Of first
importance-the oxford with a low,
mannish heel or with modified Cuban
for walking and practical wear. 1t
has smart long, though not ex-
aggerated, vamp with partially point
ed toe and punching that accents its
Hmartness and outlines a wing tip.
Then the oxford Jumps from the for
service style to the fer-dress-oe-
casien type, and many and varied
are Its materials. MI patent colt
skin Is the most modish with high
Louis XIV heel, though IT consents to
q modified one for the woman who
cannot attain the highest. Smart
Hunchwork. tipping and otherwise
decorating It, make this exferd O
thing to be desired; and consider this,
it's one Of the few kids that can ac-
eomnanY most costumes. Then, when
the oxford is to be worn with even
mere dressv costumes 1t appears Ia
gray kid with satin back quarter and
narrow ribbon that laees through
handmade eFeists. Nothing could
be daintieF or .dFessieF than this style.
"The pump, and whe.e thought
such . time would come, Is not to
be considered.

ANSON CLAIMS SUNDAY
BETTER THAN COBB

Johnny Eyers is strong for the old
;fuard against the new generation In
baseball, but he Is not in 1t with Cap
Anson. The Chicago Methuselah can't
lind anybody these days in class
with the past and gone generation that
worked alongside Of him. Cap doesn't
back his opinions with the concrete
record, but he is strong on general
remarks. He gives Ty Cobb q sort
of look-in at least In comparing with
the other present-day fiivvers, rank
ing him in playing ability next to
Eddie Collins. whom he considers the
hest.
Il always have contended that the
players of the present do not put up
the article Of ball that was seen In
the old National League" says An
son. "of the present-day pitchers
Mathewson was the greatest Alex
ander and johnson are first-class per-
formers. Johnson has as nice a de-
livery as any pitcher ! ever watched.
He gets great speed without apparent
years.
"In the old days we had a dozen
stars, and there are not more than
wv hO"' SohIhS - pEopdoly lne
greatest, with Cobb a close second.
Billy Sunday, in his prime. could
run rings around Ty Cobb. Where
are the players Of nowadays who
compare with Buck Ewing, Fred Dun
lap. Fred Pfeffer and Biddy McPheeP
Buck Ewing was the best catcher
who ever worked behind the bat. John
Clarkson was probably the best of
the old-time pitchers. The Boston
club paid Chicago $4,000 for Nike
Kelly and Clarkson, and they were
worth the money"

New Fashions in Rhyme and Prose.

Grace Margaret Gould. fashion
editor Of the Woman's Home Com
panion, gives an account of Miss
Manhattan's" shopping tour in
which the latest modes are re-
yealed. She says:
MAN wants but little here below
But girls are different, and so.
She visits shop. boutique and store.
Supplying wants and wanting more.
AT the milliner's she buys q hat
Of folded georgette and straw with
feather trimming.
"At the boot shop she learns that
ties are in, and that in high shoes
the combination Of materials Is ia
yored.
IN accessory land she discovers
that the tassel hag now has q
wooden handle, the embroidered
veil is round, the rain and sun UNI
brella has ivory points and q blunt
Tip, stockings aEe open-worked and
embroidered"

BANISHING CHILDISH FEARS.

Some years ago It would have been
thought sheer nonsense to talk of a
child being afraid, says Laura Spencer
Portor in the Mothers Magazine. Now,
owing to the researches of earnest
men and women In the field Of psy-
ehology, and owing to very exact ana
modern experiments In psychology, We
know that only a very small part Of
our mental life and experience ever
rises into consciousness; and that by
FAR the larger part consists of impress
siens and tendencies and fears ana
repressions that are active vet remain
hidden as it were under the surface
OF the conscious. Moreover, 1t is now
well known and established, that
when the mind is called on to face
facts or experiences which for one
reason or another are unpleasant or
painful to It, it has the power and
the habit Of escaping from those dis
tasteful facts into q set Of fancies
less distasteful, or, 1t may be, posi-
lively pleasant to it.

to stop and give US higher profits or
lower interest or some other petty
thing
And we should know that that is
just what the Enemy wants. We
should know that if we stop or hinder
or delay the fight we are lost.
NOW LET US FORGET OUR IN
D1VIDUAL RIGHTS AND PETTY
THINGS. LET US BE SOCIALISTS,
OR NON-PARTISANS, OR REPUB-
LICANS, OR DEMOCRATS, BUT
LET US FIRST BE AMERICANS
AND, STRIPPING OFF ALL THE
OTHER ISSUES THAT LESSEN
OUR EFFECTIVENESS IN THIS
FIGHT, LET US BE AMERICANS.
If we do not all the liberty we have
fought for throughout the ages is lost.
Other things can wait. But the fight
will not wait. WE MUST FIGHT
NOW OR WE ARE LOST. Let US be
AMERICANS. y
But a short time ago the mothers of
Europe sang their babes to rest,
dreaming of the happy days to come.
Fathers proudly planned for the lives
Of their children and slept peacefully,
never dreaming Of danger.
They awoke to the dying shrieks of
their children; to the shock Of burst
ing shells; to the trampling of the
feet of the invading hosts.
Let that not happen here. Let the
American people realize the danger
and stand as unit against the enemy.

1t looks very much as tho spring
is here, tho from past experience, we
have learned to be none too certain.
The weather at this writing is very
mild. The coal dealers are having a
snap. Hundreds of farmers are in the
city daily, hauling out feed and SEED
and they are getting their machinery
in trim, for if this weather continues,
some of them will be working in their
fields by the last of the week. An
early spring is welcome. The winter
has not been severe, but it has SEEM
ed lang and rather dreary, owing to
general conditions, but the North Da-
kotans with their usual optimism have
taken the "bits in their teeth" and
expect to break all records.

At meeting of the members of the
Northwestern Medical Association
last night, one Of the members sug-
gested a plan to aid the suffering
humanity Of this section of the state
that will in all probability be worked
out, as it met with hearty response
from the other members. Many of
our doctors and nurses have been call
ed to the war and others will have to
leave within a few weeks. There is
a call for 80 more Red Cross nurses
from North Dakota at once. Many of
our smaller towns are today without
a doctor The plan is to engage the
services of a capable Red Cross nurse
whose duty it will b. to give weeks
course in the home care of the sick,
to about fifteen of the women in each
town in the county. The diagnosing
of cases will be discouraged, but in
the event that no doctor is at hand,
one can be called by phone for mild
cases and he may prescribe without
seeing the patient.

The death Of Jud LaMoure, old
time politician, removes from the
state most interesting character and
one of the foremost citizens. Jud La
Moure was of the old political school.
He was stalwart and friend Of
Aleck Mckenzie. Jud and Aleck used
to make their headquarters in the
old Merchants hotel in St. Paul for
years, where governors were made
and other important business for the
state transacted. He never lodged
an issue and did not deny the fact
that he played into the hands of the
political boss who ruled the destiny
Of the state for so many years, but he
defied anyone to show him where he
had not safeguarded the interests Of
the state, according to the code Of
those times. He was called the
watch dog" Of the treasury of the
state, being for many years chairman
of the finance committee in the Sem
ate and he guarded our millions we'll.
He assisted in building up. one Of the
best school systems in the United
States. He was as square as a die
and his friends could depend upon his
word. He was one of our wisest poll
ticians and it can be said that he was
never defeated for office. When he
saw that the Progressive cause was
about to win, he had the foresight to
withdraw gracefully from the politics
of North Dakota.
