ness. This weakness is that the orator has an overwhelming tendency to say, not what he thinks, but what the crowd wants to hear. In the seli- tude of his study he may be sincere and intelligent man, but when he gets on the platform he is possessed by the single desire to 'get hand He will say anything to that end and purpose
 His thinking all goes for nauisht. And, as a corollary of this proposition, the man who does not think often makes a better orator than the one who does. If a man really has any
 thing to impart he can write 1t a great deal better than he can say if.
 It is true that the world has pro- duced great orators, from Moses and Cicero on down. But if you will ex- anime into the orating of these gifted ancients you will learn that they spoke
 not to great mobs of people, but to small, select and critical audiences of their peers. Thus Cicero's careful and precisely logical discourses were delivered before the Roman senate-a small and highly sophisticatd body Il is the audience that makes the ora | tion. And when the audience is d f,reat | gathering of men, most of whom fee
 but do not think, and who are welded
 into mob, the oration becomes a mere I telling of funny stories, making oi
 resonant noises, a shouting of triba 1 shibboleths. A typical American political speech is a lineal descendant

 I have battered up old hat of which I am very fond-probably from long association-that Mrs. Hawkins says that she can remodel until it will be like new. She makes a speciality of remodeling and can take the most helpless looking old wreck and make the looking hat out Of it. And she says that she really likes to remodel. If l were as clever at it as she is, l would like it. too.
 And then, if you get an economical streak, which I do along about the second and fourth weeks of the month you might make yourself a chapeau. Mrs. Hawkins will sell you all the ma terials needed, from the wire and frame to the velvet or whatever you may want Some millinery stores do not do this. but Mrs. Hawkins makes a speciality of it.

PASSING THE BUCK Bv pr, James |. Vance

At little town in France the headquarters of a regiment of the A. E. F., asked young captain what he thought of his colonel. Here his reply: At the officers meeting yesterday, he deliberately declined to pass the buck"
 This the highest praise soldier could pay another. Language could do The vocabulary had been exhausted.
 Passing the buck is the army phrase for pass ing on responsibility. The soldiers say that it is the great game of military life. Red tape was in vented make it possible for the game be played without limit.
 Adam passed the buck" and said: "The woman whom thou gavest to be with me. she gave me of the tree, and did eat"
 It takes courage to shoulder responsibility; it takes to shirk it. When the responsibility is ours, and its assumption likely be costly to at tempt unload it others is to play the sneak
 Cities do it in passing their undesirables to the Institutions do it in seeking a cul- prt to whom the blame for crooked deals may be nailed. Nations do it in calling traditions which help them to play safe in the face of present duty. Church do it in evading sagreeabe questions with the remark that "the time has yet arrived
 is yellow dirty yellow, to pass the buck. A man who is white takes his medicine. There is nothing much finer for either nations than this; deliberately decline the temptation uak- ing another responsible for what they themselves should assume.

THE DECLINE OF ORATORY

tears. not yet the cheers. There is a growing tendency for audiences to show signs of the prevailing unrest when the orator draws a fresh breath, and says: Now ladies and gentlemen, I have one more point to offer for your consideration.
 This piece is a lament. as it should be. Americas greatest and most in- disputably indigenous art is threat ened. We do not produce as good writ CTS as other civilized countries. nor as good painters. In scientific discovery the other great nations outrank us. Their diplomats politely take away from ours whatever we may have that they want. But in oratory. what great nation can compare with America Where can you discover the counter part of William Jennings Bryan and Billy Sunday? And what our orators may lack in quality they make up in numbers. It is fact of statistical standing that no other countries on earth produce more orators per thou sand of population except Mexico
 Not Altogether Sad
 And yet it may be that this faintly threatened decline of a great national art and pastime is not without its compensations. Psychologists tell u: that as a method of considering i'm portant questions, public speaking tc large crowds has a fundamentsl weak

 Progress in general betterment of farm condi- tions has been made since those days but there is still much be done heforo farm life reaches the desired stage of attractveness The task of tighten ing and brightening farm life, however, to be conceived partisan.

 Arizona is not we'll known agricultural state; it is better for its mines than for its farms. Yet it is rich in farms. though mostly st uated in groups the fertile valleys of the state. but under the impetus of retaining the desert the number of small groups is being steadily extended An extension of the good roads system of the state will only facilitate this extension but it than any other agency will make existing farm life what Colonel Roosevelt hood it might become. There has been submitted the voters to be acted upon on November 2, a measure calculated to bring only the different parts eff the state closely together but bring the farms of each community contact with another.

of the war whoop and blood brother of the college yell. It has no more affinities with logic and common sense than popular song. For proof or this, listen to a few of them.
 Nor have the really great and con- stIuctive Americans ever been orators. Our great orators without exception have talked themselves into oblivion without achieving any position of high ard lasting power. Witness Henry Clay, Daniel Webster. Roscoe Conk- ling. They all wanted to be presi- dent and talked themselves out of the job. George Washington was no or- a~or. When he had to make speech he wrote it out carefully and briefly and often he had someone else write it for him. showing that he assessed, speech making at it's true value. Lin-l coin was not really a great speaker. either. When he campaigned for the presidency many of his speeches made st poor impression. All of his o-called great speeches are brief and highly fin ished literary productions-th product of solitude. The Gettysburg address IS only few hundred words in length, | was written and revised many times, and when delivered before a crowd,
 produced no effertwhatever. Long afterward, when discriminating people
 read it over, it was discovered to De a

Phoenix, Find, Has a Hat Shop That Combines Charm and Style With a PIebian Pocket Book

Isn't it queer how long it takes some of us. Jean White especially, to notice things. Mary Baird and I spent all Of yesterday afternoon running around town, part of the time in the uusty Franklin and the rest of the time not, before I noticed just what it was that made Mary look so stunning. Mary IS good looking, anyway, but 1t was nRt until we were refreshing our Jaded selves with a deadly soda fountain combination that l got the drift, so to speak. of it all.
 And then I saw it. It was a beauti- full shade of brown that just matched Mary's eyes and the whole effect was so daringly simple that it was pos itively reckless.
 My dear. haven't you another new hat?" I asked. You are the luckiest girl Also the most extravagant. Of course, you had to pay a fortune for a hat like that"
 Tt is good looking. isn't it? I do hope that Jack will like it. He doesn't know anything about it yet" (Jack is Mary's newly acquired husband) I don't think that there is anything that gives one the complete and abso- lute satisfaction that a new hat does. Do you? And this adorable thing that Mary was wearing was fascinatine enough to hypnotize the most stalo of us.
 And I'll wager that you can't guess where it came from" said Mary.
 "No, I can't. Tell me quickly and | get it over with"
 From the Ladies' Hat Shop"
 Which is where?" I asked. "At 115 East Roosevelt street. I hope | that you have wandered far enougf away from the Republican office tc | know where Roosevelt street is. Now | that the fall hat season is coming or you should by all means know where this shop is"
 Well, come along and show me the place. I simply must have a new hat I <night meet the real estate man al any moment and I would like to lool my best"
 | Perhaps you know where the Ladies
 Hat Shop is. It took Mary and about three minutes to scoot out there and find the cunning little shop tucked away among the trees. The location,
 think. is lovely. right among the resi- dences and apartment houses.
