ATEvER was a midwinter faced by
IN millinery that took its storms
and cold less seriously than that
which has been presented for dressy
wear this year. Except for the fur
which contributes a part Of the make
up Of some Of them. these gay and
frivolous, but very beautiful hats, have
altogether a summer mind. They are
brilliant with metal laces, gold and
silver tissue. and recently arrived
mock Jewels that give them additional
color and sparkle. Fur finds itself
In company with tulle and lace and
with rich blossoms Of silk or satin
with glints Of gold and silver on them,
and hats made entirely Of flowers ra-

Y WAY Of a postscript to the story
u Of chlldren's coats, a few new
models have made their entry into the
shops and they are less simple than
the first coats of the season. Nearly
all of them, of whatever material,
have fur collars or collars that are at
least bound In fur. For the smallest
girls there are lovely little coats Of
white corduroy having the collars
bound with white fur and round hats
with upturned brims made to match.
Both for the little girl and older ones
there are many coats Of colored cor
duroy with caps to match. These are
usually box models quite plain, ex-
cepting for fur bandlngs. The hats are
not always of corduroy, but often
have round crowns crocheted of wool
and upturned brlms of fur, beaver and
squirrel. holding their own as the
~favorites.
There are a few all-fur coats; those
of white lambs wool, for very little
girls, and muskrat O coney for chill

Good Old "Rah, Rah" Days Gone

Marion Leroy Burton is the new
president of the University Of Michi-

year of 10,500 students. Doctor Bur

in education demanded by the times.
'The duty Of the educator and of ed

make the new social order what II
ought to be. Unless education can
take the millions comprised In the

 Yes, we realize that it is not customary for one to write his own letter of introduction and to publish it in the newspapers.
 Our excuse is that there are so many people in Birmingham that we want to know, and whom we want to know us, that we take the chance of doing the unusual thing with the feeling that we will be understood.
 Furthermore, doing the un- usual thing is usual with us. Our whole organization of~ many stores is built upon the unusual;
  our policies are unusual. The store that always does the usual thing grows stale and old fash toned. Insisting upon doing the unusual, as we do, keeps us young and very much alive; it sharpens our wits; it broadens our service; it enables us to do things that our customers appre- ciate.
 While others are considering whether an idea is profitable, we ask: 'Will it improve our serv- ice to our customersY' Upon the answer to this question, our decision is made.
 It was in this spirit that we de- cided to make our beautiful new store a CHARGE ACCOUNT store, with features that are de- cidedly unusual. Our faith in people is so unusual that we have no hesitation in selling anyone anything he or she may want on a CHARGE ACCOUNT. No rigid rules. No arbitrary terms. No embarrassing investig ation. Nothing, in fact, but the applica- tion in a sound business way of the fine friendly confidence that people feel toward each other as individuals, that you feel toward your neighbor-men or women without regard to race, color, creed or wealth.
 To anyone and everyone our un-- usual store offers the very unusual privilege of buying whatever they may want in mems or women's beautiful, reasonable clothing and having it charged" to their account.
 We Open Saturday,
 Oct. 10th
 We hope to meet many of the readers of this letter, and we hope to have the privilege of pre- senting one of our pretty and useful souvenirs that we have provided for this occasion.
 Will you call and introduce yourself? Please!

Secretary Glendale Dist. Com1 Club
 In the not distant past the Glendale district was one of the principal dairy centers of the Salt River valley. Broad acres of the succulent alfalfa supported many herds of dairy cows, and for years this industry flourished, causing the erection here of one of the largest milk canning plants in the West This was before the advent of the American variety of Egyptian long staple cotton. Now cotton as king has supplanted the queen of the dairy herd, but the faithful cow has left her in delible mark upon the soil, and though relegated temporarily to the back ground of agricultural industry, con- tinues to make her former presence felt in the richness of the land upon which she once reigned supreme.
 For dairying of past years in this district has so enriched the soil that the cotton grower, supplanting the dairyman, finds this former fertiliza- tion of the land, coupled with the fact that natural chemical fertiliZing prop critics exist in the soil itself, has made it an ideal section for the culture of long staple cotton. Bumper crops are the rule here and the average yield is higher, per acre, perhaps. than in any other single district in the Salt River valley.
 
 nine miles northwest of Phoenix, on the main line of the s. F., P. & P. rail- way Santa Fe system), comprises about 40, 900 acres under irrigation. On the north it is bounded by the desert and Phoenix mountains, sloping gently toward the river on tn esouth, present. ing a natural drainage. This, coupled with the fact that the district lies some 25 to 50 feet above the water table level of the valley, has preserved it from waterlogging, except in a few spots near the river.
 The soil is the fertile "Glendale loess,'' a silt and sandy loam formation the former averaging about 40 per cent, and built up by ages of overflow extending down for a depth of more than 100 feet in many places. In ad- dition to the richness of the land as . result of years of dairying; the soil is high in chemical fertilizer content be- ing heavily impregnated with lime potash and phosphoric acid, the latter element existing here in the surprising proportion of 0.22 per cent With proper crop rotation the richness of this soil should last for ages.
 In keeping with other parts of the Salt River valley, the Glendale district presents a long growing season, from April to October, while the mild win ters, the nearness of the mountains, the character of the soil, the never failing irrigation supply, make it ideal for the culture of long staple cotton, garden truck, citrus fruits and like products.
 Glendale, a growing, busy commu- nifty of 3200 population, is the commer- cial center of this district, amply pre- pared to care for the commercial and l

financial needs of the suburban as we'll as urban residents. It's schools homes, stores, banks, churches, lodges, etc, will compare faVorably with those found in any city of a similar size.
 To the northwest of Glendale, some Az miles. is Peoria. with 800 or 500 population, and fapidly expanding. During the past year Peoria has prac- tically doubled her population and greatly increased her business district. Surrounding Peoria are to be found some of the finest ranches in the Glen dale district, while on to the northwest is Marinette, a Comparatively new community on the edge of the desert, the center of a tract of some 20,000 acres being developed by the South west Cotton company.
 All lands of the Glendale district. with the exception of those about Marinette. where pumping plants have been installed, are under the famous Roosevelt irrigation project. Land values in the district range from S400 to $500 acre, depending upon loca- tion and the class of improvements. Rent values range from $50 to S75 per acre per annum. Cotton production last season averaged we'll above F bale to the acre. Cantaloupes yielded 225 to 300 crates per acre, bringing growers a net of $40 to $2.60 per crate Wheat produced 50 to 50 bushels per acre; milo maize from 215 to tons per acre; corn, 90 bushels per acre; oats, rye. barley and the other grains showing equally heavy yields. Alfalfa yields to 10 tons per acre per year.
 In brief, the Glendale district pre- sents an extremely rich soil, long growing season, unfailing water sup ply, freedom from waterlog and "hard pam" an ideal climate. the long grow ing season so essential to long staple mil xxrffa a n storms and high winds. freedom from killing frosts-a land of opportunity for the agriculturist the investor, the home maker or the healthseeker.

Charles P. Taft, the millionaire
brother Of Spineless Bill, got pretty
hot after the Democrats last Saturday
and Sunday because of the circulated
canard that Senator Harding has me-
gro blood in his veins. Millionaire
Taft ought to have known that no de-
cent Democrat either believed or cir
culated such report and the calumny
was not worth the space Charles gave
tor rather, the space was given by
the newspapers which are always ex-
ceedingly kind to a man who possess
es the shekles to the amount Of mil
lion. By the way, we did not notice
that Judge Taft's brother in any way
resented the publication Of the sac
religious caricature of the Immancu-
late Conception in Harvey's Weekly
and the National Republican--hence
we are led to believe that Mr.. Taft's
veneration for the Republican nomi-
nee is much greater than he feels for
the mysteries of the Christian relig-
ion.
