Falling Leaves.

There is shower of leaves in the
streets and parks and the fall sweep
ing. raking and carting off is under
way. The leaf of many trees has fin
ished the task for which it was fash
toned and is dropping off of it's own
accord. or is being cast off by the tree.
Since early spring these little labora-
tory workers have been taking mat
ter captured by the roots and have
been compromising food for the nour-
ishment of the tree. Sunlight becomes
less, the heat is insufficient, the cell
of the leaf becomes clogged with
refuse from it's work. change of
color sets in, and the leaf becomes
weak and dies. Then a drop of rain
or a Whit of wind parts it from the
tree. The life and death of leaves
constitute subject which many
scientists have studied and written Of,
but in this domain of knowledge. as
in SO many others. there is lack of full
agreement between big and well stored
minds. The time of the falling leaf
is here, perhaps later than is usual.
because the season seems to have been
below the average in frost. rain and

The Country Well Stirred

Public interest continues Wher

is not being neglected. while Gov
Coolidge. who is now out on his frs,
tour of any length, expresses eratifica
ton at the size and warmth of his re
Ceptions.
And yet the leading topic Of the
campaign-the league of nations-has
been under discussion almost two
years. Soon after President Wilson
first appeared in Paris talk about tn,
league-then in formative stage-be

intensity has kept up. Over a yea,

The Bark Of a Pup.

There is no finer possession a man
may have-with the exception of a wife
and a child and his health-than a
pup. Mankind rejoices with him in
the pride of his ownership. The world
wags in rhythm with the pups caudal
appendage.
Yet dog barks. And though his
bark when first heard has a pleasing
quality-a friendly. ingratiating note
his vocal efforts lose most of their
charm when they have punctuated
three hours of an autumn evening.
And since this is so, and since it may
be safely assumed that one who owns
a dog is far from being one of the in
herently inconsiderate class. sug-
gestion may be frankly made. A
number of pups within the limits of
the National Capital need to be taken
aside and hidden, as they love the
good name of their masters, to re.
member that their barking must be
confined to the hours when out for a
run in the country. The pup can be
made to understand. And it is only
fair to him and to his kind and to
ones neighbors that he be given the
opportunity.

Senator Simmons Talking Tariff.

Senator Simmons on the stump IN
North Carolina is talking tarlH ana
taxation to his constituents. He Is
well qualified for such discourses from
the democratic point OF view. Under
democratic control Of the Senate he
was chairman of the finance commit
tee and presided over that commit
tees revision of the Underwood tariff
measure as passed by the House. He
then led the Senate debate on the re-
vised measure. The work consumed
five months.
If the democrats regain control of
the Senate. rs is the aim and hope of
some of their leaders. Mr.. Simmons,
in AL probability. will again preside
over the finance committee of that
body. Thus if the republicans con
tinue their control of the House. as is
their aim and hope. a pretty howdy-do
will arise over the tariff.
Mr.. Simmons is u low tariff man
an anti-protectionist. Any tariff meas
ure passed by a republican House
would. of course, be a protection
measure. Both Mr.. Harding and Gov.
Coolidge are advocating protection
from the stump. And equally certain
would that measure coming under re-
view of the Senate committee pre-
sided over by Mr.. Simmons undergo
some radical changes.
This would set the stage for tug
Of war in the conference committee.
Protectionists and -protectionists
would grapple there for all they We're
worth \ tariff Ineas sure of some kind
being a necessity, the liveliest interest
would attach to speculation about
what sort of measure could. and would,
emerge from such a contest

Buttons and Buttonholes.

There is problem today confront.
ing the bachelors of Washington. In
the evolution of masculine attire,
mans shirts have become adorned
with buttons. AS the garment is to-
day constructed these buttons are es-
sential to its correct and often to
its modest adjustment. Modern die
tates of propriety likewise call for
spotless linen. And hence the rub.
For a bachelor is today experiencing
growing difficulty in meeting the de-
nand that his shirts be Numbered
and then buttoned. The conviction is
forced upon one that at least one of
the processes incident to the modern
washing Of shirt is destructive of its
fastenings. Bachelors to whom the
handling Of a thread and needle is a
nightmare. and to whom a button,
hole with nothing to hitch 1t to is
an embarrassment. are anxious for
an investigation conducted with a
view to the possibility Of returning
their shirts spotless yet buttonable.
II this result could be attained they
would be grateful without limit

Chrysanthemum Show.

The mum show comes again.
Washington has enjoyed eighteen of
these chrysanthemum exhibitions
staged under the mana cement of the
Department of Agriculture. and the
nineteenth begins tomorrow in the de-
partment greenhouses along the north
side of the department grounds and
the south line of b street. There are
rose shows, carnati0n shows. lily
shows. amaryllis shows and gorgeous
dahlia shows, and these exhibitions
make a strong appeal to men and
women who admire nature when she
is in artist mood and paints flowers.
The chrySanthemum has come into
as extensive as that of flowers more
varied and gorgeous in their colorS
and more a1luring in the perfume they
eXhale. There is something about the
and the careless grace with which it
arranges its petals that gives it Il hold
on the admiration of the people.
The chrysanthemum show is a far
cry or a far development from the

who lived outdoors all the year and
never knew the luxury of spending
winter in a warm glass house. Crowds
of Washington people will troop to

Safety in the Streets.

The American Automobile Associa-
ton joins in the good work of traffic
rules revision with a view to provid.
ing greater safety in the streets for
pedestrians and vehicle drivers. The
association has appointed a traffic
committee to cooperate with the auto
board recently named by the District
Commissioners, and which has already
held ore or more sessions. The board
has under consideration the revision
Of traffic regulations. plans for the
establishment Of traffic court and a

ri1and for economy, but promises OF
economy are periodically made by the
party in authority. It is promise
that has never been satisfactorily full
filed. Government expenses continue
to mount. One important reason is
that the nation grows and year by
year a larger office force issrequired
to administer government business.
Another reason is that the national
government is continually extending
itself by assuming Undertakings which
had been within the province of state
governments or private enterprise. An
other reason is that the government
is Initiating new enterprises generally
asked for by a large body of people,
and many of these enterprises make
for the improvement Of the conditions
under which people work and live.
The peak of direct war charges
the pay and equipment Of armies and
f1eets-has passed, and the vast civil
ian army engaged in producing NUM-
tons has been mustered out. There
has been a let-down in war costs, and
this process should continue till the
normal peace-cost of government, plus
payment of obligations incurred by the
war, is reached. This reduction in
government costs should be reflected
in reduced taxes.
The war was not paid for in cash
out Of surplus in the Treasury. Much
of it was paid for in cash borrowed
from the people. They are the cred
itors of the government. and yet the
government must take from them in
taxes the cash required to repay them
their principal and to pay them their
interest plus a heavy overhead charge
for transacting the business The
government Of the United States has
no way of getting one dollar except by
taxation.

Economy and Lower Taxes.

Men in the arena Of politics. or the
game of politics. who talk eloquently
on the subject of economy in govern
ment expenses and a consequent large
reduction of taxes are saying things
which strike pleasantly and gratefully
upon the public ear. AS general
