THE PUBLIC WELFARE.

Ever since the effort was made a few months ago to include the whole country in a coal strike and make 1t suffer all sorts of inconveniences and nardsnips as the result thereof eyes have been directed toward Kansas where prompt steps were taken to op- pose such a thing and prevent it in the future. The governor of that state took over the mines and work ed them until legislation was passed by the assembly requiring continuity of service where the public interest is involved. and setting up an indust- rial court for dealing with such dis putes.
 The determination of the miners to fight the legislation and after it was passed to strike in protest quickly ended. In connection with the recent call of, the railroad men for a strike there has been a conference of the officials and Governor Allen of Kan sas which has resulted in a deter mination to submit to the law and the Industrial court, rather than fight the law in a state where it was declared by the governor that "the laws of Kansas will be enforced"
 Since this decision in Kansas it has been decided to indefinitely post pone the strike everywhere. This fol- lowed the conference with President Wilson and the expectation is that the claims will be submitted to the board which it is hoped will be ere ated under the pending railroad leg islation.
 But in view of the success accom- plished in Kansas where the public welfare is carefully protected there appears to be no reason why there should not be similar protection ir other states, or in fact in the whole country through federal legislation Public welfare is something which has gotten a cold shoulder in the past, whether capital or labor insti- gated loekouts or strikes. The Kan sas law brings 1t from darkness tc light and looks to a sensible adjust ment of labor troubles. Justice to al concerned is only what should be sought in any case.

CLEARING THE STREETS.

In many cities in this part of the country the problem of getting rid of the great amount of snow in order to permit travel through the streets has been encountered. Many sugges- tions have been offered and many plans have. been tried, flame throw CTS and streams of water being em- ployed in some instances, but the plan that brings the real success is the carting away of the snow and ice.
 That this clogging of the streets should cause so much trouble is due to the fact that it occurs so infre- quently that only temporary meas ures for dealing with it can be put in 10 operation. It is just a case of go- ing at 1t with pick, shovel and teams and as large a number of men as can be employed and keep the fight up until the situation is relieved.
 There are not mary winters when there is such trouble as has been ex- perienced this year. Either the storms are less severe or else the ac- cumulaions of one are gotten rid of before another comes, but this winter it has been a steady piling up of one snow and ice storm after another. Where trolleys have been able to open up their lines they have furnished a lane of travel for vehicles until it be- comes necessary to turn out, on sin gle lines. for cars or teams going the other way. The real trouble comes of course in the business section where streets are narrow and into which are thrown the snow and ice from the sidewalks on either side which in some instances amount to about as many more cubic yards as originally fell in the street. Such streets are naturally impossible when a car line runs through the center until they have been cleared. Old Sol will do it in time but an inn. patient people is not disposed to wait That long Consequently the example Df everyone getting out and digging nntl relief is obtained is a grand one, and at the same time there can be an occasional expression of thanlduIness that such winters are few and far between,

VOGUE FOR PLAtTs.

Accordion plaited dresses arc going to be worn a great deal. Many of the latest, creations of the Paris dress makers are treated in this way and 1t seems sure that the spring fashions will continue this vogue.
 Accordion piaits are just as much employed on gowns or tailor -rnades of serge as on those of taffeta, satin; chiffon voiie de laine or silk. In some gowns the entire skirt consists of deeD nounces, in others of one single fiounce made in fiimsy material and shorter than the undersakirt, which is seen through the transparency.
 The bottom of coats can be plaited in this way. Coat dresses may be ar- ranged with several cross plaits. showing plain band down the front. Sometimes the skirt will have the front and back plaited and the sides plain, and at other times the con trary is the case. With skirts the ef- feet IS achieved without it being nec- essary to sew one Dlait fold to one not plaited; it seems that the skirt is first Of all plaited all oyer, then the parts are pressed. out which are to remain flat
 In the same way flower petals are formed, Dlaited in the middle and fiat at the edges. the iron not only effacing the plaits but slightly stretching the material, giving a sort of undulating movement to the edges which lightens the whole effect. Tn pale pink satin this would look charming, fresh and youthful.
 The trimmings worn in the olden days consisting of little plaited iabots ruched and plaited collars, are begin ming to make their appearance. With this fact before us. we are almost sure to see many of these delightful old- fashioned ideas.

WILSON AND LANSING.

That Secretary Lansing should lieave the presidents cabinet did not cause much surprise. It had been .intimated for some time that his res 'iruation might be expected. On the iother hand there was surprise in the fact that the resignation was re- ouested and that it was sought on the ground given.
 In the claim that his calling of the cabinet members together was usurp- stion of the duties of the president # shows 2 highly sensitive and entire 1v t1n5ustifed attitude on the part of the president. who apparently gives no consideration to the necessity of having the nations welfare looked after during his incapacity. Not be- ing able to look after the duties thai devolve upon him and not doing any thing to meet the situation as mat fers Of more than ordinary import ance arose. it was no more than should have been expected that there should be gatherings of the cabinet members to determine what should be done to keep the ship of state going and headed right. Instead of being censured for such action it was EnmeIltEE TOT WHICH ne SuOuiQ 4dFS been commended, and that it is be- iieved will be the attitude of the country.
 That, however, the whole story of the presidents action, and that which lies back of it. has not been told seems probable. That it may have had it's beginning at the Deaee con- ference, when the secretary of state is known to have held different views than the president is not improbable.
 The president of course has the right to select his own cabinet and to make changes when he desires. But when he seeks to make changes on the ground that a member has been meeting an emergency created by the presidents physical inability to measure up to his own job he can not expect that he is going to find the country approving his extraordi- nary action On the other hand to have his resignation asked for under such circumstances will reflect no discredit upon Secretary Lansing. But why he should be made the goat when the whole cabinet participated and that no protest came when the president knew all the time that the meetings were being held and what was being done is what increases the aStonishment.

 It is a good exercise to take long, full breath, then blow very hard, ex- polling the air through a very small aperture of the llps, which will let out only a little air. Also. blow wig orously, eNpelling air more rapidly. Watch a man playing a cornet to see how the blood is taken to the face by blowing.
 There is a difference between the naturally chunky person who has hard fat and the watery fat type. It Is just as natural for some people to be stout as it is for water to be wet. But such persons are said to carry their fat well. That is. while they are plump they are solid and shape ly. These people are hard to reduce because their flesh is hard and even though they perform very long and difficult activities they reduce but lit tie. The type of fat that should worry one is the soft, useless, shape less kind that really amounts to an aff1iction. This kind of fat is due to inactivity and overeating of starches and sweets. The shortest road to normal for such people is to abstain completely from starches and sweets.

the different clements encountered and out of which it was necessary for him to get his support all follow ed the reversals which his army ex- perienced. Just as soon as he was forced to retreat and to keep retreat ing his prestige declined and when the time came that his government split and he was forced to surrender his command to others he found his troubles multiplied, respect gone and his life in peril. Those who opposed his rule not only succeeded in de- stroying his government but they were not satisfied until they had eliminated him completely. Admiral Kolchak made a hard fight for the retrieving of Russia but he lost through his inability to get and maintain control where he had set up his government. His execution though unWarranted is only what might be expected under revolution ary conditions.

KoLcHAKs END,

After an extremely stormy period, during which he was reported as having escaped. having been given protection by different forces and having been taken prisoner, it ap- pears that Admiral Kolchak, the leader of the Russian anti-boIshevik forces in the east. after suffering re- peated defeat has been killed, and thus ends the career of one of the Ruzsians who was trying to bring or der out of chaos.
 There was much faith placed in the ability of Kolchak. For a time he appeared to be able to get a large following for the government that he eEznized and to establish a unity among various factions which had not previously existed. His forces were successful for a while in driy- ing back the red army, but collapse followed success. Trouble with SUD- plies, inability to control subordi- mates. the breaking away of certain sactinnz. and the general disrust of
