Among these new midsummer ideas are Russian blouses, tunic effects and apron effects.
 These, to suit your fancy, may have three-quarter l.e e ve or long sleeves. Both are good. The shades are white, flesh, navy and black, and in this connection permit us to sound warning; the popularity of navy blue blouses is as yet undiminished, and it is quite possible that you will find all of the new navy blues gone if you delay your selection.
 These are especially selected to be worn as warehouses with the dainty georgette and silk skirts so much in vogue among we'll dressed women this season.
 We repeat our invitation that you inspect these blouses early.

DIFFICULT TO
GET CAST OF
CLEMENCEAU
Desire of President Wilson
Causes Speculation
z in Paris

Paris, Sept. 29.-The report from
New York that President Wilson
has expressed a desire to have casts
of the features of all the principal
delegates at the Peace Conference
is causing much speculation in the
Partisan artistic world as to the
probable reception which Premier
Clemenceau will make to the re-
quest.
Ten years ago when the late
Rodin was working on his famous
bust of the Tiger" which Clemen-
ceau says looks as much like him
as he looks like Joan of Arc, Rodin
asked and obtained permission to
make a cast of Clemenceau's fea-
lures.
Clemenceau submitted to the ap
plication of layers of paratfine oil,
soap and plaster to his face, fiddled
nervously for ten minutes while
Rodin was massaging his features,
then suddenly asked: How much
longer are you going to manhandle
me in this way?"
Another half hour" replied Ro-
din carelessly.
Clemenceau leaped from the chair,
rushed to the nearest washstand and
proceeded to erase all traces of the
cast from his face. He then gave
Rodin his photograph.

AIRPLANE TRIP
TO POLE WILL
BE $50 MILES
Leader of Expedition to the
South Is Making
His Plans

London, Sept. 29.-John L. Cope,
leader of the expedition to the South
Pole to start next June, says his
airplane flight to the pole will be
about $50 miles. The base from
which the airplane will start is
about that distance from the pole.
The airplane will be heavily loaded.
I'VE shall be compelled to take
sledge with us and extra provis,
ions to enable us to return in case
the airplane breaks down." said Mr..
Cope. Because of this additional
weight it will be necessary to cut
down our fuel to the minimum for
taking off will be very difficult and
it will be impossible to lift the ma
chine for crossing the mountain
ranges.
1--WE propose to set off with as
much petrol as we can and tLen,
half way on the outward journey
just before we get to range of
mountains that we have to cross,
to dump half of it and to pick it up
on the way back"

Senators Are Virtually
Agreed Upon Reservation
to Article Ten of Treaty

Washington, Sept. 29.- On the
eve of the Presidents return from
his transcontinental tour in behalf
of unamended and unreserved rati-
tication of the League of Nations
Covenant Republican senators Sat
urday virtually agreed upon the res
ervation to article ten, which Mr..
Wilson stated at Salt Lake City
would cut the heart out of the
league"
Senator McCumber, of North Da-
kata, said that while he would not
say there was absolute agreement
between the Lodge-KnoX forces and
the mild reservationists," he was
confident the compromise would
command strong support in the
Senate.
This compromise reservation was
read by the President at Salt Lake
City after copy of it had been sent
to him by the League to Enforce
Peace. The mild reservation" sem
ators had hoped that the President
would accept it, but his fiat rejection
of it has not swerved them from
their purpose to support it.
These senators take the position
that there must be a reservation on
the obligations incurred by the
United states under the guarantee
of territorial and political integrity
of members of the league, and they
are convinced by the Presidents
statement at Salt Lake City and
Cheyenne that no wording preserv-
ing the Sovereignty of Congress and
leaving Congress the sole arbiter of
the obligations to be assumed by
this nation would be acceptable to
him.
The ext ent of the compromise res
ervation follows:
The United States assumes no
obligation under the provisions of
Article Y to preserve the territor-
ial integrity or political independ-
ence of any other country or to in
terfere in controversies between
other nations, whether members of
the league or not, or to employ mill
tary and naval forces of the United
States under any article, for any
purpose, unless in any particular
case that Congress which, under the
constitution, has the sole power to
declare war or authorize the en-
ployment of military and naval
forces of the United States shall, by
act or joint resolution, so declare"

Chester, Pa, Sept. 29.-Miss Ada

going to her home in Harrisburg.
In doing so she has taken a stand in
which school teachers everywhere

follow the suggestions of the school
board that all the teachers devote a.
part of their vacation to study at
one of the colleges or universities.
Her August pay was, therefore, held
up. and the young woman at once

Bryn Mawr Is Upheld
by Court in Excluding
Girl From Harrisburg

NorTistown, Pa, Sept. 20. - The
court overruled the demurrer which
Miss Margaret II. Stambaugh, of
Harrisburg, filed to the answer
which Bryn Mawr College made to
her legal step to compel the famed
Main Line educational institution to
reinstate her as student, commenc-
ing with the term that begins next
month.
The court rules that the answer of
the college to the action of Miss
Stam baugh is sufficient. The court
goes on to say, that it will not give
final decree in favor of the college
at this time. Miss Stambaugh,
through counsel, filed with the court
to-day specific reasons why she
should be established as a stu
dent, which reasons will especially
be considered by the court at the
next hearing on October 13.
She claims that the decision of
the college senate that it would mot
be for the best interests of the col
lege that she receive a degree" prac-
tically making it impossible for her
to enter another college of standing
and she therefore asks that the
matter go to trial that she may prove
that no sufficient facts existed for
dismissing her on the ground of the
best interests of the college.
She also asks that she be per-
mitted to reply to the averment that
she was a low-grade student and
rather Indifferent in her work; show
the marks received by her during
each term, claiming that they were
higher than those received on final
examination.
Miss Stambaugh also claims that
she will be able to show that after
she came back from Smith she was
treated as a regular student and not
as ION probation" as the college
alleges in its answer.
