springlike Things
Please Southern Visitors

'E'HOSE going South are BEGINNING
to think of more springlike things,
and for them quite summery-looking
hats are already making their ap-
pearance, Glazed chintz and ere
tonnes are featured in some Of them.
We have had chintz and cretonne
mats for the country in other sum-
mers. bat the glazed or shellacked
chlntz has not been used before. It
is infinitely more practical than the
ordinary chintz, as it sheds the dust
easily and may be wiped off with a
damp cloth. Then, if one is caught
IN the rain with one of these sum-
looking hats on, there is no
fear Of its turning into bedraggled
mass of cloth. for even a rubber rain
hat could shed a downpour no better.
Quite a remarkable trimming ap-

toward success, for it does come into
some prominence whenever we have

that its stiffness makes it suitable to

Lanvin especially has had great

makes them with and without en-

may not be going South it is very
good idea to get some of these hats
for they are most attractive and IN
the hurry of getting ready for an
exodus from town in the spring it is
not always easy to find Just what
one wants in country hats.
Other country hats Of the wide

allover patterns. Most of these

Social Season Calls
For Pretty Clothes

WE tire, in time, of all our clothes
and now is the time when we es-
pecially feel the need of something
fresh and different Then, at this
season, we have so many more social
engagements that we like TO have
great variety of pretty clothes in
which to appear. In both the early
and late autumn this need was filed
by one-pece cloth dresses and
beautiful furs. Later, these frocks
were topped by coats of either
cloth or fur. Now. we feel the need
Of suit that is completed by some
sort of an attractive blouse, unusual
enough TO make the costume some
thing quite different from the old
fashioned coat and skirt.

Tafeta Dresses Continue
Mid winter Favorites

IT is surprising to find taffeta
dresses meeting with continued
success in the mid-winter season.
Those who look ahead in fashions
VIII see in this indications of con-
siderable use of this fabric for
spring. We have come to think of
1t as such a practical material that
1t never has had the attention that it
deserved from the artistic stand
point. 1t was always featured in
evening gowns for members of the
younger set, but we rarely saw it
IN handsome daytime frocks. as
for some reason or other it has
come to be considesed some
what informal material. Now our
greatest designers have taken it

need. Its arrival may be heralded
as the most popular suit that this
famous house has launched for the
winter. The styong one-side move
ment and the long coat are it's fca-
lures. The portion which LAPS
across the front, buttoning under the
lett arm, to give q semi-belted an
pearance, is cut in one piece, with
the right front of the jacket. The
color combination worked out in this
is remarkably pleasing. Copper
brown veIours de lame is the mate
rial selected for it.
The tendency in tailored suits is
toward the use of pronounced colors.
The erstwhile popular dark blue is,
Luz tle HIOlleIlt, neglected. Much of
this is doubtless due to the fact that
in rough wool pile fabrics dark blue
is the least attractive of all shades.
There must be some changing depth
to the color tone to bring oft the
beauty of the fabric; hence, browns
and greens arc chosen in preference
to blue or black.
The vest and collar are of broad
tail fur, although it has been made
with these trimmings Of the heavy

fur this season. While the broad

plush is most economical. and has
the advantage of being equally
fashionable. Doeuillet completes his
costume with smart bodice OF

color. This makes the suit beautiful

Early Straw Hats
aced With Duvetvn

MANY Of the early straw hats in
past seasons were faced with vel
vet; now duvetyn has taken the
place of this material and some of

became widely eXtravagant
almost as soon as the war
was over. There were a
lew months of reimbursement, while
dressnakers were getting their es-
adjustments back into normal work
ing conditions; but this period was
surprisingly brief. No sooner was
this done, even in limited way,
than the market became flooded
with an ava lanche of clothes. as OK
travagant as any that the world has
ever seen. Now we are experiencing
reverse reaction.
While it cannot be claimed that
our frocks are any less expensive
than they were six months ago. thew
are great deal simpler in design.
There is no mistaking the indica-
tlon that women want all of their
dresses built on the simplest and
most youthful lines, and that thew
will pay more for a dress of this
character than one elaborated with
applied trimmings.

in other years there were no fash

THE HUGHES PLAN

That the plan outlined by Charles Evans Hughes for the ratification of the treaty with reservations will le followed in the senate seems likely.
 The plan, as we understand it, is simply this: The senate will adopt the reservations by a majority vote The reservations will be incorporated in the ratifying resolution and then the question of ratification will be put to the senate The advocates of the league will thus be called upon to vote ratification with reservations. If they vote against the ratification res Olution upon them will rest the res possibility for rejecting the treaty, if, as MT. Hughes says, the reservations are reasonable. If the senate, by the required tWo-thirds vote, ratif1es the treaty the President must give his assent before the ratification is con- plete If he refuses assent the responsibility for the treaty's failure will be his.
 The reservations proposed by MT. Hughes are, perhaps, more effective than any which have been suggested. Most important of all is the reserva- tion bearing on Article X.
 The gist of this reservation is that the United States will assume no mil itary or naval obligation under the article unless and until the congress of the United States, as required by the constitution, shall give it's author ization. The reservation concludes has exclusive authority to declare war or to determine for the United States whether there is any obliga- tion on it's part under said article and the means of action by which such obligation shall be fulfIled.''
 Apparently, therefore, the reserva- tion is comprehensive. It covers not only military and naval action but all action which the executive council of the league may propose-such, for example, as an economic boycott.
 If the congress of the United States reserves the right to decide what this countrys obligation shall be there is not so much reason for fearing that we shall become involved in unjust wars If congress reserves the right to withhold our support it is incOn- ceiVable that we would ever wage war to maintain Japan's position in Shan tung as against the rightful owner China.
 But what are we to do about the Shantung provisions of the treaty? Are we to ignore them and rely upon the reservation to Article X? Should we expressly reject the Shantung award?
 Every consideration of American tradition and principle impels us to repudiate the Shantung compact. If we take such action, however, the treaty must go back to the peace table for amendment, for our action would be more than a reservation, 1t would be a positive rejection of ar entire section of the treaty.

The school board appear to have found it necessary to increase the school taxes against certain business property in Anchorage. The 5-mill tax of last year is not increased, but a higher valuation is placed on prop erty which amounts to the same thing from the standpoint of dollars and cents.

MINISTERS OF
BAPTIST FAITH
PAID DAY WAGES
Salaries Received by Majority
Of Pastors Blot on De-
nomination, Says New
York Man.

Denver, May q. - "Day-labor
wages for Baptist clergymen is a
blot on the denomination; less than
half the nations Baptist ministers
receive SIS a year." is the declar-
alton made to the Northern Baptist
convention today by DR.. E. T. Tom
linson of New York, in presenting
the report of the ministers, and mis-
sionaries' board. -
This statement and plans of
American Baptists for Americaniza-
ton of aliens in the large cities
were the outstanding subjects of to-
days session of the convention.
Figures presented by DR.. Tomlin-
son showed that Arizona ranks
highest in the salaries paid its cler-
gymen, So per cent of its Baptist
ministers receiving $500 a year or
more. Massachusetts,, Montana,
Nevada and South Dakota are next
in order. Maine is at the bottom of
the list, with 10 per cent receiving
the above salary, and New York has
only II per cent, while Vermont has
II.
A plea for a higher standard for
qualification of clergymen was made
by DR.. Tomlinson. who urged that
service rather, than ordination
should be the basis for granting
pensions to disabled or superannu-
ated ministers.
Americanization plans were out
lined in the report on clergy mis-
sions and the report on Baptist
bodies using foreign languages.
