We take great many things for granted in world that Is rich in won. derful and beautiful fabrics. We hard. ly stop to think how they are related to the seasons of the year and that 1t has taken some centuries to perfect them. But they are here, at hand, for the artists in apparel to use in inter- preting their ideas to us. Milliners make their choice and hats tell the story of the seasons-and much more, with rich velvets and brocades, warm, soft-looking beavers and plushes, gold and silver tissues, with furs, making up the brilliant and cheerful millinery of midwinter. There is something of splendor in 1t.
 Four charming hats for midwinter, shown in the picture above, are good and sufficient excuse for a little ex. travagance on the part of the eternal feminine. Every woman knows that her hat is the most important item in her costume, and here are four. that have all the excellencies, beauty of fabric, beauty of line, becomingness and fitness for the season. The hat, with graceful brim, at the top of the group is a triumph of the framemaker to start with, and is made of velvet. It has @ soft tam crown and a sash of wide satin ribbon ending in bows

boom developed in silver stocks in the securities market. The British coun. tered, by withdrawing India from the silver market, officially at least ] Since May 5, no silver has been sold for export to India, in this country, and the British government has tried to hammer silver by trying to consign gold to India, and by selling Chinese silver short, early in the summer. Huge quantities of silver have been exported to China, which has been al- most utterly drained of it's silver. There is a lurking suspicion that sil- yer for India is being imported into India via the Flowery Kingdom. At any rate, it is a fact that India, the great silver consumer of the world, has not been Officially in the silver market since May 5. This makes all the more remarkable the very remark able climb in the price of silver since the summer.
 Future Trend in Prices
 Where the climb in silver will halt, it is folly to predict. The withdrawal of gold from general circulation places a greater burden on silver.
 Even were gold not withdrawn from general circulation, the great increase in prices and increase in volume of commerce, makes more money and more small change imperative with which to carry on business. There has actually been less new coinage of silver and gold combined, not more, and notwithstanding increase in silver coinage. '"
 Paper is mighty poor substitute, as the world has found out on many occasions in the past, and as the world is finding out once more through de- preciated value of the money of the so-called "gold" nations, whose money" is really paper "shinplast- ers," utterly unsecured by either gold or silver to the extent of eight to twelve billion dollars recently issued. Besides the demand for silver coinage, for industrial uses of silver, and the great silver demand to pay the worlds trade debts owing to India and the Orient, prodigious quantities of silver must be required in the next ten years or so to validate" some DOT tion of the unsecured paper "money' recently issued by the leading nations, including the United States.
 Supply and Demands
 What the world needs nowadays is a, silver wizard or group of wizards, who with 0,000, ,0O0 ounces silver ac- tual yearly production, and perhaps 250, 0,000, ,0O0 ounces possible production a few years hence, to go around, can

 Just below, at the left of the group, black velvet and gold cloth brocaded with black achieve a handsome Ma. poleon hat, which also has a soft crown. Except for a sash and tie of narrow gold ribbon about the crown 1t is without trimming. This is one of several successful off-theface hats. Opposite it large velvet hat is faced with beaver. Its brim is turned up at the front and handsome ornamental pin fastens it to the crown. With this hat wide scarf of angora yarn makes a neckpiece to correspond, taking the place of fur.
 Siberian squirrel fur-the lightest of the gray squirrel skins-makes the spirited turban at the bottom of the group. A small cascade of fine lace, with bit of fur along the plaited edge. results in trimming that cannot be improved upon. All these models are worn well down over the head and not an ear is visible. .r

The silver market was fixed at $1.01 1-2 per fine ounce by the Pitt man wartime act, which authorized price fixing, embargo on silver ex- ports except under license, and which authorized the melting of 350,000, ,000 silver dollars in the United States Treasury, containing 270,000,000 ozs. silver, of which 200, ,000, 900 ozs. were to be supplied to Britain and chiefly to India through Britain.
 On May 5, 1919, our government an- nounced completion of the contract with Britain and India, and removed embargo on exports and price re- strictions. London for two days tried to hammer the price of silver down, and tried to obtain an additional 100,- 000,000 ounces silver at fixed price of $1.00 or whereabouts. The U. s. government refused the request, the London spectators were caught short and the price of silver reached $1.19 3-4 on May 13, 1919, when great

Governor ProcIaims League OF
Nations Day.

Governor Richie has issued proclama-
ton naming Sunday. October oath, as a
day on which the people Of the State are
urged to read and study the Covenant of
the League Of Nations" to the end that
they may be better able to cast their
ballots wisely and intellieently" in the
coming election.
This action by the Governor followed the
request for the naming Of such a day.
made to all Governors by a committee Of
prominent men Of both parties headed by
President Lowell, of Harvard University.
Several days ago Governor Coolidge. Of
Massachusetts, Republican Vice-Presiden-
tial nominee, refused the request. stating
that such a proclamation would be giving
official sanction to a political issue.
Governor Richie. however, takes issue
with the view expressed by Gov. Coolidge
In a statement accompanying the procla-
nation he said:
Il have received the request from the
committee headed by President Lowell,
asking me to proclaim Sunday, October "a.
as day upon which the people Of this State
are urged to read and study the League
Of Nations, to the end that they may the
better understand that document and thus
vote more intelligently.
Il fail entirely to see the force Of the
views. expressed by some, that this would
give official sanction to political issue.
at may be true that the Governor should
not officially urge the reading Of the Cove
nant in particular places, such as the
churches and the schools; but only to urge
that the document be read and studied is
not giving official sanction to a political
issue. 1t is simply urging adequate con-
sideration by all the people, regardless Of
party or creed. of the greatest issue in the
world to-day. II there is anything can
do that will help in having the League
Covenant more widely read by Democrats,
Republicans, or members Of any othel
party. think it is my duty to do it
The Governors proclamation recites tina
the "object of the United States and ou
allies in the World War" was to "crusf

Compares Harding's Stand with
That OF Soyiets.

Bolshevist speeches were cited at Chi
cago last Friday night by Secretary Colby
in a campaign speech as paralleling the
attitude of Senator Harding on the League
of Nations. Mr.. Colby read what he said
were translations of some of the speeches
made by Bolshevists at the recent meet
ing of the Third lnternationae at Moscow.
This organization. he said, confessedly
revolutionary body, aimed at the over
throw of democratic government wherever
it exists, was opposed to the League of
Nations and "far more sympathetic with
Harding S association Of some sort or other. ="
Republican efforts to sacrifice the League
of Nations to partisanship, Mr.. Colby said,
had been "a distinct Contribution to the
spread Of disorder in the world and to the
arrest Of the healing processes Of peace"
at has given hope and cheer to every
enemy of public order" he said, 1T has
encouraged the most abominable anti
social forces that ever have manifested
themselves since history has been written.
1T is high time we ceased this dangerous
trifine. There is but one way back to
peace, to order. to security; there is but
one way back TO honor, and that is by an
immediate and complete rejection Of the
Republican philosophy of scuttle and self

Why Iou Should Vote For
Senator Smith.

Mr.. EDITORIAL a time like this. when
the very foundations Of civilization are
being rocked by the false propaganda be-
ing spread by the professional Republican
politicians on the League Of Nations issue,
il is gratifying to note that during the
past few weeks the people of this country
are awakening TO the truth Of the situation.

attitude Of the Republicans. are fiocking to
Governor Cox and will endorse the Demo-
cratic platform Of Peace. Progress and
Prosperity.

3. He is a member of the very important

construction of shelters and extensions at
the produce market in Washington, so that
