Early In the season we had intima-

gear, and by this time men In the east
are wearing the brims SO narrow that
they give q mans head the semblance
A ~ the proverbial peanut There are
many things to be reckoned with, how
ever, before this style becomes ma
tionally adopted. For instance, the
returned soldiers, those of them WAC
wore the kindly campaign hat, could
hardly be induced to wear even
solightly narrower brim such as is seen
u On the average every day hat, much
less would they consent to one Of the
new scant brimmed affairs which the
seffete east has been wearing for some
weeks. Then too there are the men

extra width to shade their eyes from
The hot SUMS rays. And then the

They may all come to 1t sooner or
later, but not in a heap.
The smartest materials are OF
course the soft, smooth finished felts,
though there are some stiff hats
shown. In the soft hats one can
shape the edge OF the brim to best
suit ones facial contour, while the
stiff hat is rather incorporating
along that line.
Following the colors shown in suits,
brown and green will be the most pop

BiREMAN MAY COME
 HERE FOR CELEBRATION

It is quite possible that an aero plane will come here from Mineola av- iation field for the welcome home eel ebration to be held next Saturday aft ernoon at the fair grounds, under the auspices of the War Camp Community service. Herbert R. Branche, the secretary of the committee or arrange mentS, has taken the matter up with the commander of the aviation field at Mineo1a and is now awaiting a reply. MT Branche hadN previously commit nisN ted with the naval experimental station at New London asking that a hydroplane be sent here for the celebration. Captain Dufrense of the experimental station said that he and later informed MT. Branche that advisability of flying hydroplane over land as it would mean damage to the machine. possibly destruction, if they were forced to land on the ground as the hydroplane is not suit ed to ground landings owing to the boatlike construction of the underpart of the machine.
 MT. Branche then took up the mat ter with the commander of the avia - tion field at Mineola in the hope that an aeroplane will be sent here to do stunts over the fair grounds.
 MT. Branche has also extended an invita- tion to the commander and other officers of the |. S. S. North Dakota. now at New London for the day The North Dakota is manned by some 200 officers and men.

PEOPLE HAVE PLAGUED
 SELVES WITH BROTHERS

Mrs. Richard M. Bisse1l. director of war savings for Connecticut. has re- ceived a memorandum from William Mather Lewis. director of the savings division of the trea sury department, outlining the treasury partment's programme for reducing the high cost of living, substantially along the lines followed by the Connecticut war sav- ings committee during the past month. Asserting that the people have uncon- scious1y leagued themselves with pro- f1teers by extravaganza, MT. Lewis cites specific instances Of reckless buying, and traces in masterly fashion the development of a national weakness into national menace. He shows how systematic saving will as
 sfst in readjusting the balance be- tween supply and demand. and forcing prices down: and he empha sizes his conviction that the burden is not on the government or the merchant but on the individual consumer himself.

 TALK ON ANCHORS

The local Young Mems Christian as Sociation conducted another successful "get together" Sunday afternoon, when a fine group of men in uniform and Swahn's orchestra and the popular songs which were followed by an ad- dress by Rev. c. L. Kenagy, who save a heart to heart talk on Anchors. He said in part:
 Men, it's a great thing to have an anchor. St. Paul. you remember, was nearly shipwrecked. and the Bible tells us they threw -out the anchors and waited for the morning. I have often wondered how the early Christians could stand the terrible prosecutions to which they were subjected, but we know they believed in the power of God to protect them. and in this faith they had a safe anchor.
 I came here to talk to you about Jesus Christ. and l know you will not object to my talking to you about Him. In all my experience in the army camp talked to about religion when the mat ter was presented to him in a proper way.
 What kind of an anchor have you9 We all need to have an anchor that will hold us when the times of tenn pta tion come to US. Jesus Christ is the anchor for every soul. You may say to me that you cannot understand all about Jesus Christ You don't believe this or that about Him. Well, what do you believe about Him? Act on these things and the others will come along in due time. I can't understand all about Jesus Christ. but I know that He stands out as the greatest charac ter in history. and He will be our one great anchor if we will but let him.
