SLICED SPONGE TO REPLACE -
 PLUME ON FRENCH BONNET


 Paris. Oct 1o.-Here's bit of interest- ing news for long suffering. husbands Parisian miiliners have found wzx 10 utilize the common or kitchen variety or sponge as a trimming for miiady's hats. and if models now being displayed in a popular showroom nayebe taken as an indication of next seasons styles. costly ostrich plumes or gold plated brzids viii no longer be en regle-
 To a mere man the new process -uf trimming seems to consist of several slices of a. well developed sponge. which are at- tsched to the silky or velour covering of the hat frame by tiny bows of colored ribbon, although for those of more lun1ri- ous tastes and well padded purses real gold braid may be' substituted for the cheaper ribbon. -.
 It is estimated that one good sired sponge. purchased at bargain counter for perhaps nifty. cents. will furnish enough slices to adorn at least two Paris creations. but there still remains eorns doubt whether there will be correspond ing reduction in the cost of the 'bonne1. to the ultimate consumer. However. there is nothing in the French copyright laws to prevent economical housewives taking advantage of this advance tip on nexr seasons styles. As far as the use of sponge trimming is concerned. only one disadvantage Is foresecn. Such hats VIII be useful only in dry weather.

TAFT REPLIES TO cox IN
 SUPPORT OF SENATOR HARDING


 Vancouver, B. C., Oct. 1O.-Election of Senator WarrensG. Harding to the pres idency of the United States will nRan the ultimate ratifica tion of the league of nations, with reservations and "the elimination of all further dispute,Y Will liam Howard Taft, former president of the United States declared upon his ar rival here at the head of the arbitra- tion board of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway.
 Governor Cox has asked me how I can support Senator Harding when the senator has denounced the league of na- tions," said MT. Taft. Cox is not quite right if he says Harding is opposed to the league of nations idea. Harding wants league that will be constituted more like court. He wants league, but not NIT. Wilson's league.
 Obviously there will have to be some compromise and it may very we'll be that the kind of league Senator Harding sup ports will form the. basis on the com promise. I believe that the election of Senator Harding will mean the adoption of league of nations W ll reservations and the ending of all further dispute ''
 NIT. Taft said tilat while he was per sonally in favor of the league of nations and was willing to accept it as present. ed by President Wilson, with Article x. he added that he was bitterly disap- pointed when the president did not ac- cept the reservations voted by the re- publicans who with a few democrats. constituted majority in the senate. IF said recent statements of Lord Grey in a letter to the Times, at the time the reservations were under discussion. indi. cated that there twas no doubt that the United States could have entered the league with the consent of the other na- tions." s

CHANGES TO BE MADE IN
 POSTAL RELATIONS OF WORLD

Madrid. Oct 10 CBy the A. P.).- Changes of sweeping importance in the postal relations. of the world will be ef- fected as result of the deliberations of the International Postal union congress during the past week. Several commit tees dealing with various subjects already have drafted their reports, which must be submitted to the full general committee. and thereafter to the whole congress for final approval. but as the committees in most cases fairly represent the views of the entire body of delegates. their reports are virtually certain of acceptance.
 The notable items upon which the com mittees reported favorablS are:
 1-The establishment of international payments for the transit of mails on a gold dollar basis.
 2-The fixing of an increased maximum rate for postage on international mail. but with the proviso that the United States and other countries may retain the present rates or fix their rates according to their own ideas as long as they do not exceed the maximum accepted by the un- ion.
 3-In future congresses only parent countries will have voting power colonies hein gexcluded from voting, although they may send delegates.
 1.-The creation of a Pan-American postal federation.
 A far-reaching decision was arrived al by tho United States and South and Cen. tral America with reference to futurs postal arrangements Representatives O, republics Of the western hemisphere. nom mated an executive committee for the ere. alton of Pan-American postal fedora | tion. to include every republic on th, western side of the Atlantic

INCREASE IN NUMBER
 YOUTHS ENTERING COLLEGE

| New York, Oct. f0.-American youths entering college have increased in mum bers at record rate during the past six years and if the proportionate growth is continued to 1850 there will be 1,13S,- 900 students in 210 institution where 294000 were enrolled last year. |, These figures compiled by the Institute for Pub lie Service, have raised the question of where the money needed to educate ths largr groups will come from.
 Julius H. Barnes, chairman of the In stituEe, found in a study of the figures compiled that this years increase in the number of students enrolled in the col colleges has set a new record Colleges which in 1914 had 1S7, 900 students and last year 294, ,000 will en- roll 471.OD in 1880 and S31,o0O in 1850, if they continue the same number in- crease each year report Of the Insti- | ute states. But, if they grow at the av- craze percentage rate of the last six years, they will have 659,000 students in -930 and 1,13S,o00 twenty years lat | CT.
 Taking the lower estimate for 1850, il means finding facilities for more thar three times the total for 1920 at six ol
 seven times the salary cost said the re port. 'ft means adding 644,000 students | or 200 colleges the size of Yale last year The Institute asks. twill the money tt
 provide education for the increased mum Der of students come from taxation, en 1 dowment, private gifts and larger fees | Must present universities grow or nor
 universities be built T'
 In numbers, the largest increase in si; years is credited to the College of tn, City of New York with a growth of g., 500, followed by the University of Cali fornia with 6,20O increase and Bostol University with 4700. Yale was one o
 four institutions which had fewer stu
 dents than six years ago, it's decrease be

The submarine. did not attack the ship, the nahne of which is not given; nor is the date on which the submarines were sighted men toned . .. The stories of the Baltic operations of She soviety submarines are based on a report which reached the allied navies sthat two submarines supposed to be SO. viet had been seen off Haspal, on the esthonian coast, September 27, headed southward

 There are many rumors that the boI- sheviki are sowing mines, but they have not been confirmed
 A soviet submarine might easily hide indefinitely along the rugged Baltic coast but the British navy is so act ivein the Danzig area that 1t is not likely the so- viets could infiict serious damage on shipping

THEODORE ROOSEVELT
 REBUKES GOVERNOR COX


 Oyster Bay N. Y. Oct. 10.-Theodore Roosevelt, in a statement here tonight. replying to charges in Governor Cox's speech at Terre Haute Ind, yesterday that Mir. Roosevelt had misstated that the league of nations could declare war. asserted this is precisely the attitude' he would expect MT. Cox to take
 Mir. Cox attacks my statement that the league can declare war for the United States" MT. Roosevelt said. "He maintains that it cannot. I wish to refer to Article x. Mir. Cox evidently bases his position on MT. Wilson's statement that an obligation to obey the mandates of the league would be moral obliga- tion. not legal obligation.
 This is precisely the attitude I would expect Mir. Cox to take. We republicans maintain that a moral obligation is as binding as a legal obligation. Do the people of this country wish to elect a man like MT, Cox chief executive who brazenly, in effect does not consider his word to be as good as his bond?"
