ed Such articles would be of no. use.
 In his cable message to the Ameri- can Red Cross asking it to undertake the work Mr. Hoover says that mil- lions of men, women and children are facing shame, suffering, disease and some of them death for lack of cloth ing this winter.
 "They must be helped" he contin- ues. q hope the Red Cross will under take a renewed campaign to obtain the clothing in America. It can come only from us. Your first campaign yielded magnificent results, bringing in fully 5000 tons of clothing in good condi- ton. But much more is needed if these war-ravaged people are to get through the winter in decency and safety. In the face of brutal coercion and spiritual suffering they remain splendidly courageous. This courage challenges our charity. Let us match the courage of Belgium with the gen. erosity of America"

Felt Hats.

Blocked felt hats, it is thought in some quarters, will come in for a big portion of popularity next winter for the reason that so many women have gone into business and are dressing either in uniform or in very business like clothes. Really the only hats that look well with these trig clothes are those which are blocked, and while not exactly stiff, still have d deal of for mality and dignity about them. A new one was seen, in beaver felt, with a high crown and narrow brim that rolled at the back and tipped down over the face at the front. It had a single ornament of the same shade at the left side front, and not even d band around the crown. This hat would have made a lovely finish for blue serge suit and its wearing possibilities would have been boundless.

 iSOBEL FIELD
 Of Tho YigiI0nfes

Has 1t occurred to anyone that the numerous tirades against dogs that have been appearing in the newspa- pers all over the country in the shape of letters from the people" may be of alien enemy origin2 Why should the same arguments against mans best friend appear in New York dailies at the newspapers of California, Texas, Oregon and elsewhere?
 What attracted my attention was finding the identical letter in my home town paper (Morning Press, Santa Barbara, Cab that I had read in the New York Globe. It was signed by different initials but the wording and arguments were the same. Dogs eat sheep. We need mutton. Therefore, all dogs should he exterminated."
 All over the West last summer there were unusually destructive forest fires; crops were destroyed, cattle poisoned, and a mysterious horse dis ease appeared ill many localities. Though the evidence has not been made public, it is common knowledge that these depredations were the work of enemy aliens. The work was done with system that suggested German efficiency, and was no doubt paid for by German money. That being so, the elimination of watch dogs would be of immense importance, and the only conclusion is that the whole propa- ganda is the work of our enemies. They would influence us to kill our own dogs for the convenience of Ger man agents, who, without these guard ians, would have a freer hand in sa- botage.
 No Trouble in Scotland.
 The argument that dogs cannot be kept in a sheep-growing country is refuted by Scotland where there are more dogs to the square mile than any country in the world. One cannot "draw near" a Scottish home without

Anticipating the cold weather, which will soon be due in Belgium and France the American Red Cross will make another drive for clothing to be sent to the destitute and helpless Bel gians and the French. It would be worse than indifference, it would be heartless, to hoard any clothing that can be spared to the population, of the occupied territory in these countries. The American Red Cross News Sery- ice in Washington, D. C., has wired the following appeal:
 Five thousand tons of clothing for the destitute people of occupied Bel gium and Franeei
 This is the objective of a drive to be conducted by the American Red Cross at the request of Herbert C.. Hoover, chairman of the Belgian Re lief commission, during the week be- ginning Monday September 23 The clothing drive of the Red Cross last March brought in 5.00O tons of gar- ments and 1t is estimated that at least as much more will be required 10 elothe the 10,dO0,000 people in the occupied territory during the coming winter.
 As in the previous campaign the clothing will he collected by the chap ters of the Red Cross throughout the United States. each chapter getting it's allotment from its division headquar- ters. There are 13 of these divisions and each has already been apprised by national headquarters in Washington of the amount of clothing its chapters are expected to produce. Every kind of garment, for all ages and both sexes, is urgently needed. Garments Of strong materials are wanted as they will be subjected to the hardest kind of wear. Flimsy garments, ballroom dresses. high-heeled slippers, silk hats, straw hats and derbies, which were donated in large quantities in the last clothing campaign, will not be accept

When the snow flies it will be met by such rich and adequate headwear as appears in this group of winter time hats. II is something of para dox to call this a season of brilliant millinery when dominant eolers are quiet with only two or three among them that can be described as bright. But along with cold weather come metal hreeades and fur They are spar ingly used, but even so carry the sug- gestion that belongs to rich stuffs. Millinery borrows splendor from them.
 But millinery deserves 10 be called brilliant without consideration of the colors favored by fashion. Shapes are really wonderful, the most suhtly art ful and the most becoming that can Inc imagined. They are brilliant in themselves and the craftsmanship of trimmers deserves the same adjective.
 In rhe group there are four hats and three of them are small or medium; one is large. But the small hat pre- dominates in greater proportion than three to one. Two of these mod els are designed for street wear and two are more formnl-but they are all very wearable-that is. they can be made to do much service. Al the up- per left of the group a hat of gray velvet with upturned brim is faced with Hudson seal and trimmed with a big flat cabochin In black and gray. If only one new hat Is to be allowed the mid-winter wardrobe, this would be good choice.
 Just below this model is wide brimmed hat of black velvet, with q tiara drapery about the crown of black and silver gray brocade, edged with a band of beaver. With all this reserve

A ma tronly hat of the same character ap- pears at the upper right of the group. It is one of those tall crowned, mar row brimmed hats that match the dig nified poise of middle age.

Mother! Your child isn't naturally cross and peevish. See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign the little stomach, liver and bowels need a cleansing at once.

 Nothing equals California Syrup of Figs" for children's ills; give a tea spoonful, and in few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fermenting food which is clogged in the bowels passes out of the system, and you have a well and playful child again.

Suits of this sort are most frequently trimmed with fur, beaver or skunk being used.

 Be on Watch for Enemies.
 Scotland is great sheep-gro"ihg country, yet it loves the dog gives him his due in life and reveres him in death. At the castle in Edinburgh there is a little plot of ground where the dogs of the Scottish soldiers are buried; it is a charming spot, and on many little tombstopes there are ten der tributes to departed friends, Ih front of St. Giles cathedral in the same noble city there is monument with Il little Skye terrier, and upon 1t, carved in stone, an inscription 10 "RobDie' who refused to leave the church-%aru where his master was buried and died upon his grave.
 We want more dogs in America-not fewer. They would be of great SefF- ice guarding ammunition plants in helping soldiers on guard at aqueduetS and bridges in ferreting out susplclous characters, the forest rangers all over the West would find them inNaluable in densely wooded country.

It is said that the Red Cross dogs can detect life in q wounded soi= dier lying out in No Mans Land when the doctors themselves are in doubt. They carry messages through shot and shell; they bring up food and water to the first line trenches, and many brave man owes his life to the intelli- gence and fidelity of a dog.
 In future when we read any of these 'letters from the people" advocating the destruction of the dogs-it would be we'll to find out the names and ad- dresses of the writers and send them to the secret service department to be investigated. We have many scores to settle against the Germans, and not the least of them is their insidious, treacherous propaganda against the best friend God has given to man.

Precedence
 h By RALPH HENRY BARBOUR of The Vi9iionfes

It was quite the grandest affair held fh Berlin since the signing of the treaty of peace that had brought the great war to an end, and everybody that was anybody was there. Invita- tions, indeed, had been almost fran tically sought for a month, for it had early become known that the host, his excellency Grossmorden Schmidt. had obtained, at an enormous expense, q quantity of genuine blutwurst, which was to form the piece de resistance of the magnificent banquet of real food that was to crown the occasion. After years of substitutes the prospect of once again tasting viands guiltless of sawdust, acorns, clay, bone dust and the unsatisfying, if clever triumphs of synthetic chemistry, had thrown Berlifl's new aristocracy into q state of joyous excitement scarcely ap- preached in fervor since the now-long- since and to be-remembered-alw sinking of the Lusitania. So great was fhe press about the entrance of Herr Sehmidt's magnificent residence that fully an hour before the time specified fin the much-Sought invitations it be- came necessary to request extra police women to restore order and to, some times forcibly, dispossess the fortunate guests of the baskets they had brought with them.
 Saves the Blutwurst.
 An attempt to break into the kitchen and make away with the precious but wurst was foiled early in the evening by Herrin Schmidt herself, whose cries of alarm brought prompt assist ance from Herr Muhlstein, his excel lency's secretary, and number of the servants. Several captures were eff fected but as the marauders proved to be well-known members of society no arrests were made. The ball with which the gayeties opened was great success, the grand march being led by Herrin Grossmorden Schmidt and Privy Councillor yOn Nerletzung. All went well. indeed, until it came time to throw open the doors of the hall in which the banquet, closely guarded by q force of policewomen disguised as guests. was spread. Thereupon a most embarrassing question arose. Following the host and hostess, in what order should the members of the new aristocracy be admitted? Herr Muhlstein, in despair, sought his patron.

 Quick action they often restrain, But the loss of one day Means some one must pay,
