FOR HOT TEAPOT HANDLES

II n THE smart little art shops
b which somehow or other seem
~ to flourish prosperously because
they are so full of original and in
teresting things that one simply can
not resist-are some new and fasci-
mating contraptions designed to pro
tect my lady's hand from hot teapot
handles. one of these affairs is a
yellow felt canary-or one might call
it an oricle perhaps-a bonny bird
anyway, cut out of the felt in two
layers with a double layer of thin cot
ton batting between. and the outer
sides decorated cleverly with dashes
and dots of black ink in bird mark
ings. The bird appears to be poised
on the edge of the teapot, but the
hot handle is hidden away 'in his
little inside" and one grasps him firm
ly but deftly to lift the teapot and
pour out the tea.

and two fetching models of this type
are pictured. one is Of dark blue
tricoette with rich embroidery on
black satin introduced N an apron
panel in the skirt and in a wide draped
shawl collar that is tucked under the
girdle. Between the edges of this
draped collar is a little vest of pale

is notably smart model of black

lines relieved by a soft bertha collar
of embroidered chiffon and lace, which
falls away from the square deColletage.

one at least for evening wear and an

There seems to be a favor for pale

jacket or wrap of orchid satin has
looped up sleeves of lace.

TELL DETAILS
IN PLUMB PLAN
Presidents Of Two FederatiOns
WIN Preside in Empire Meet
ing This Evening.

Public control and operation OF
the railroads will be the entire
subject Of discussion at a meeting
in the Empire skating rink this
evening.
Glenn E. Plumb. general coun-
sci for the railroad brotherroods,
and A. B. Garrettson, president Of
the national organization of rail-
way conductors, will. address the
crowd, telling of the present rail-
way situation and how it could be
improved by the Plumb plan as
presented before congress some
months ago.
The efforts toward bringing these
two men here were chiefly expend-
ed by the Silvis and the Arsenal
declarations of labor. Matt J. An
drews. president OF the Silvis fed
GRAFTON. and C. E. Williams, the
Arsenal president, will preside
Jointly at tonight's meeting. 1t is
expected to bring out a capacity
crPwd.
Both Noted Speakers.
Both visitors are noted speak
ers, and advocates and opponents
of Plumb's proposed plan alike will
find the meeting of interest The
defense Of the plan, as Mr.. Plum D
has been arguing it before audi
ences all over this country, is
thorough and complete.
In his statement today, after his
arrival here, Mr.. Plumb said that
although the government railway
operations showed a deficit of
$260,000.000. the amount was due
to paying off unjust claims by rail-
way officials. He said:
During the last year deficit of
$3.50. 000, 900 was incurred by the
government. The reason for that
is the fact that railway invest
ments are claimed by owners to be
practically $4,000, 100000; in truth
the investments only amount to
about $4,000, 100000. That means
that the government paid the rail-
fAads at the rate of 10 per cent on
actual investments and between 5
and s per cent on actual and 'ficti-
tious investments
THE railroads made as much
money during government opera
ton as they did in 1915, 1916 and
1917, which were the most success
full years in the history of the
roads. The government lost the
$3.50. 900 900 because it was forced
to pay for unjust claiD-s. If the
United States had paid only for
actual investments, profit of
nearly $500, 900, 900 would be shown
instead of a deficit. Even at pay
ing the unjust amount, the United
States would have made money
only for one reason, that is that
the government sacrificed making
money in certain instances in or
der to speed war efforts"

NO JURY FOR
DAMAGE CASE
Million Dollar Libel Suit Grinding
Away in Attempt to Select
Twelve Men in the
Box

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.
MOUNT CLEMENS, NJ ch., May
15.-The million dollar libel suit of
Henry Ford against the Chicago
Tribune, was resumed today with the
selection Of jury, far away goal.
A third venire was called by Judgs
Tucker.
Eleven men wete ia the jury box,
but the joint def ,rse has not used
any Of it's eight peremptory chal-
lenges yet and it is believed certain
some of these WI be dropped.
Ford's counsel has .Isea two of its
four challenges.
In the legal battle during the quns-
tioning of the jury, each side has
scored a victory The defense at
tempted to preven. Ford's attorneys
from further challenging. claiming
that when they passed on the jury
Tuesday they forfeited the right Of
peremptory CHALLENGE. Attorney Muir
ply of Ford's counsel contended thct
when passing on the jury they still
held the right to ch la.lge after the
other side finished. The content Oh
was upheld The defense scored their
point in getting the court to rule
that the two sides in the joint de-
fense-the Tribune and the Solom n
News company--were allowed four
challenges each as was the plaintiff.
