KALEIDOSCOPE

It seems to be the general opinien that we are in for an era of brighter colors, not only in feminine dress which is law unto itself, but in fur nishing and decora tion
 Certainly the war office has led the way in the design of the medal ribands A breast which bears the insignia ot Mons, Foreign Service and Victory surpasses the rainbow.
 Antiquaries, and doubtless the public generally, will be at once interested in the proposed restoration of StonehSnge by the office of works. Statements as to the nature and method of the work are happily reassuring, and nothing drastic is to be attempted.
 It seems that time has told a tale cn these venerable relics, and several Of them are now leaning, at more or less dangerous angles, on their decaying (not to say Ggly) wooden supports. The proposal seems to be that these, and the monoliths that have lain prone on the ground for so long. shall be re- erected and fixed securely in beds of cement, as was done successfully a while ago with the big Hanging Stone of the circle It is a delicate suggestion, and the job, if done will need delicate handling. A trade paper has been Investigating heads in relation to hats, and discovers that in recent years there have been extraordinary changes in the sizes ot mems heads. !
 The normal British head is oval ir shape, but larger percentage than ever, we are told, are developing thu high and prominent forehead. and hat to fit these heads have to be specially ordered. Hats are supplied in dozens and the proportion of the different sizes varies according to the part oi the country where the hat is destined ! to be sold. In the Midlands the proportion < two 5-S. three 3-4 four 7-s, two one ' Is. Farther south it runs 1, 2 4, 4. 1. in the same sizes. That X also the proportion for the Frenct l sizes. The German sizes are mucf
 larger and range from 6 34 to S-3 with a predominating proportion 0. l larger sizes. Thees are apparently
 pre-war observations and the Germar
 sizes may be smaller now.-LondoI 1 Chronicle.

The Norwich Free Academy played Westerly High off its feet Tuesday Afternoon collecting 42 points, while the best the enemy could produce was a large goose egg and if there was anything lower they would have had 1t. The Rhode Islanders were out played in every department of the game and they realized 1t very soon after the opening whistle. Coach Mc- Kay is at last reaping the fruits of his toll and he has toiled hard in trans. forming a gang of raw recruits into a smooth-running machine.
 Every man on the academy eleven Is deserving of praise and 1t would be hard 10 pick out an individual star. The backfield men took turns in the limelight, Jess Wilcox ploughing through the line or Markoff, Ringland and Whitney skirting the ends for large gains. The line. which has been playing below form for so long, had aggressiveness 10 burn and the West erly backs found a stonewall in front Of them every time they attempted a line plunge.
 Norwich started off with rush. Westerly kicked off to Whitney who was thrown on his 25 yard line. On the very first play Jess Wilcox broke  through the line and galloped 75 yards for a touchdown. Ringland kicked the goal There was no more scoring in the first quarter.
 The second touchdown came in the third quarter. when all the backs working together, brought the ball tc within four yards of the line and Jess took ft over. Ringland kicked to goal In this quarter Norwich scored again this time on a freak play.

NO MEETING OF NATIONAL
 COMMISSION AT NEW YORK

New York, Nov 11-Contrary to ex- pectations no meeting of the National Baseball Commission was held here today Despite rumors to the contrary it was stated that President Johnson of the American league is in Chicago and is not expected to arrive here un- til the ehd of this week.
 President Heydler of the National league said today that so far as he knew there would be no meeting of the commission at this time. Chairman Hermann, he said, was here on pri- vate business which occupied most of his time. He called at National league headquarters and met President Baker of the Philadelphia club there. They discussed league affairs in general.
 There is no intention at this time" said President Heyd1er, "of making any move toward distributing the world series third prize money claimed 1 by the New York American league club. So far as I can see the Amer ican league will have to decide be- tween the board of directors and the | league as a whole and decide definite i ly which club has legal right to the money. Until this is done the hands lof the commission are tied so far as the disposal of the money is concern ed
 Hermann, who held an informal conference with Heydler, also expdess- ed the same opinion.
 Heydler informed Hermann that the National league rules committee com- prlsing Barney Dreyfuss of Pittsburgh William Veeck of Chicago and him self,+ would be ready to meet the Am Eer.can league rules committee when ever the commission decided to call a joint meeting. He suggested that it i be held early in January.
 | By that time, everyone interested | in changing the rules-clubt owners, managers. players, umpires and pa i trons-may submit suggestions and we can pass on the best ones," Heydler said.
 Heydler believed the spitball would be abolished as he considered it un- sanitary and responsible for many fielding errors. The shine ball also might be taken up he added, but in his opinion it's effectiveness was great ly exaggerated and largely psycholog- | ical rH
