ENTITLED TO WEAR kits.

Scores of American visitors to
Scotland have wondered by whom
and on what occasions the pictur-
esque native dress of Scotland, kits,
are worn nowadays.
Upon inquiry it is learned that
apart from actual Highland gather
ings, where every one is expected to
"dress the part" there are only four
classes Of killed folk accepted with
out comment in Scotland.
In the north the head Of the clans
and septs, the '"gentry''-which in
cludes Englishmen, Welshmen and
anyone who owns land or uses land
as a playground; in the south, The
public piper; and all over Scotland,
the soldier. As an evening dress it
also has degree of general popu-
}arity.

GENERAL CLEANUP IN ORDER
Patriotic Advertising Is No Longer an
Excuse for the Presence Of Un-
slightly Billboard.

Now that the orgy Of war advertls-
Ing is ended, where does it all leave
YOU-as the posters said-and your
future contributions to the main
tenance\ of the advertisers paradise?
You gladly saw patriotism written all
over the beautiful buildings and places
OF the city-even though this writing
was a kind Of scribbling, so incongru-
GUS were the papers and flimsinesses.
Beauty was for the moment nothing
nothing unless it, too, served. But now
Are we to be equally content to
see Pif1e's Pickles emblazoned where
we testified our intention to save food
and: thus help win the war? Will not
chewing gum and chicle be more than
ever an impertinence when inflated
to the dimensions Of our fatherland,
the liberty Of the world and the sacri-
fees Of our sons?
Some have feared that the riot Of
outdoor war advertising would debase
our taste and make the public still
more needless of the incongruousness
and ugliness Of the advertising nui-
sance. We think not. In spite Of every
thing, the war advertising truly ex-
pressed us. We looked at it and read
it-and liked some of it-because it
old. 1t expressed us best when it was
most beautiful. And although much of
1t was small In scale, it never was too
Dig to express the great ideas. But
now, will not the apotheosis of the
Insignificant seem more than ever
cheap and tawdry? If so, the blatant
advertisement has lost some Of it's ad-
:vertising value. II it could only lose
1T all, if people would not patronize
what is extensively advertised, it would
;disappear.-Bulletin> of the Municipal

"Poshed up" recalls dreadful things
to the demobilized man, for how many
weary hours has he not spent in
''poshing up" for parades and inspec-
tons? To "posh up" means, Of
course, to make oneself look smart.
In civilian life it means specklessly

hair, and shining morning face. In
the army it meant buckles, buttons

ROME TAKES BACK ITS OWN
Demolition Of Pretentious German
Embassy In Eternal City Has
Deep Significance.

Today on the CapitOline, the small.
est geographically. but historically the
most important of the famous seven
hills of Rome. there is the sound Of
hammering. the fall Of masonry. Here.
for many centuries. was centered the
religious and political activity of the
Roman empire. and here in the last
half century Germany had established
herself imperially. residentially. In
the Palazzo Caffarelli. built near the
site Of the great temple of Jupiter.
consecrated in B. G. 500. was the Ger
man embassy, with the throne of the
emperor of Germany. Near at hand
was the German Archaeological insti-
tute, within its garden the famous
Tarpeian rock, TO he visited of recent
years only by obtaining the key Of the
gate from the German authorities. On
the piazza. Romulus is said to have
founded his asylum and here in the
centuries before the Christian era, as
in the middle ages. Rome had the seat
OF her government. 1t was here that
from house to house. from terrace to
terrace, Germany up to the year 1914
was steadily spreading her domains.
The statue of Marcus Aurelius by
Michael Angelo was in the piazza of
the Capitoline. so also were those of
Constantine and his son. but there
was room for others. Today, however.
the Palazzo Caffarelli with its six.
teenth-century architectural beauties,
and its TeutOnic decorations Is being
removed from the capital in carts. The
authorities have decided that this sew
euth hill Of Rome belongs to the past
of Italy and they seek beneath the
floors Of the German embassy further
foundations Of the great temple Of
Jupiter built by Tarquin the superb,

There should be definite park DOL
