The outstanding feature in this sea-
sons appareling is brightness, Every
thing Is colorful, not always vivid, but
always glowing. The metallic cloths,
silk and satin surfaces, brOcades and
metallic laces, assure the liveliness of
evening and afternoon dress. Mill
ners and bOotmakers, taking their cue
from gowns and wraps, see to 1t that
headwear and footwear carry out the
brilliance that would otherwise eclipse
them. Beads, seQuins and rhinestones
stand ready to aid the artist in any
sort of apparel who Is compelled to
add his glowing bit TO the costume thas
is animated and joyous. 1t Is just a
question of more or less glow.
In afternoon gowns we look for and
der artificial light; but in many OF
these there are metallic laces and bro
cades introduced, yelled with crepe
georgette or chiffon. The advantage
of an afternoon frock made in this
way is that it Is frightened up by ar
titiclal light and becomes quite equal
to holding its own in the brilliant com
pany of regulation evening gowns.

Former Local Man
Hurt in Accident

The following from Shelby paper
gives an account of an accident in
which Walter Cook, formerly of this
city was badly injured:
Walter Cook, son Of Mr.. J. f..
Cook, owner of the Shelyb Steam
Laundry, was dangerously injured
Saturday evening on South LaFay-
cite street Shelbyyille, when his car
collided with Furman Cline's car,
driven by Mr.. Harris. The cars
struck head-on and Mr.. Walter Cook
was thrown through the windshield
Of the Cline car which cracked his
skull in two places and rendered Sc
rious and ugly cuts and bruises
about his head. His little sister was
with him and she received some
slight cuts, but nothing serious. His
brother, Preston Cook, was driving.
Young Cook, who is a popular lad,
was rushed to the Lincolnton hos
pital, where he is undergoing treat
ment. His mother is at his bedside.
His condition is reported to be quite
serious. Both cars we're badly dam
aged.

To Fulfill Vows &
or Quit Wilson

To group of fifteen Republicans
and Independents in politics who
were received by him personally in
the White House yesterday morning,
President Wilson read an address
in which he defended Article K Of
the League Of Nations Covenant and
declared that it aimed to carry out
the pledge that the free governments
Of the world had given to the people
when they entered the war.
These nations promised that the
world would be safeguarded in the
future from sinister designs, said
the President, and he added:
1--WE have now to choose whether
we will make good or quiz"
The President made a direct ref
erence to the political campaign
toward the close Of his address. No
one who opposed the ratification of
the Versailles treaty and the League
Covenant, he said, has proposed any
other adequate means Of bringing
about settled peace. There was no
other available or possible means, he
declared. =
He. denied the claim that Article
x was itself a threat of>war; on the
contrary It assured the concert of
all free peoples to see justice done
and humanity protected and vindi-
Gated. This, he asserted, was the
true Americanism.
This choice, the President went
on, was the supreme choice Of the
present campaign. He expressed re-
greet that this choice should be as
ISOLATED with party contest.

The occasion was impressive by
reason of the fact that it marked
the delivery of the first formal ad-
dress that President Wilson has

Secretary Of War Newton d.
Baker, while in Louisville with the
Pro- League Special train, expressed
his hope that Senator ]. c. W. Beck
ham be reelected to the United
States Senate.
"Senator Beckham," said Secre-
tary Baker, "as a member of the
Senate Committee on Military AZ
fairs and on the floor Of the Senate
Chamber was Of the very greatest
assistance to the administration in
the conduct Of the war. Throughout
the war he worked unremittingly and
efficiently. We depended upon him
at any time Of the day or night to
help, whatever way he could help,
the cause of America in the great
war. His work was beyond any
valuation that those who conducted
the war could put upon it. His work
was for the whole people and / hope
kentucky will recognize it by return
ing him to the Senate"
A prominent Democrat who heard
Secretary Bakers statement added
this comment: Everybody who was
in Washington during the war knows
that Secretary Baker is speaking
nothing but the truth. Senator Beck
ham worked day and night on mill
tary matters. He was as well in
formed on these subjects as any leg
islator in Washington, but he had
the rare faculty of Keeping his
mouth shut about what he knew.
Secretary Baker is in position
to know exactly what Senator Beck
hams services meant to the country
during the war, and it is pity that
more of his constituents do not know
of his valuable work"
