Just why anyone should want to
.confine this exquisite little frock to
wear in the morning hours by calling
it La Matin Robe" is inexplainable.
At least the average American girl
and woman who years pretty little
ginghams, voiles and percales Of a
summer morning can not understand
the reason for such a beautifully en-
broidered frock for the informal
early hours Of the day. To be sure,
there arr house parties and weekend
visits when such. a frock is quite APP
propriate, but it is also suitable for
many affairs Of the afternoon hours.
The style of the frock is very SIM
pie and perhaps that is the key to its
name. It is fashioned Of lustrous
white pussy willow. embroidered in
a flower design in beautiful pastel
colorings. The design covers the en-
tire skirt from hips to hem. Small
pockets, short sleeves, a plain narrow
belt and a graceful collar embroider-
ed to match the skirt are the dis
tinctive features.
The georgette hat which completes
the costume is a becoming dropping
brimmed shape trimmed with large
roses Of georgette in the same color.
The hat comes in plain white Of DELI
cate pastel shades which may be
chosen to match the predominating
Of the frock.

PoINDEXTER SPEAKS.
Detroit. Mich, July 23.-Buildine
OF d olrect route to the sea from the
Great Lakes was urged as a necessity
to move the products Of the west in a
telegram from Senator Miles Pom
dexter of Washington. read before the
Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Tidewater
Congress. Senator Poindexter was
unable to reach Detroit for the con-
gress.
THE increase in prosperity ana
population that would result through
provision of such a waterway cannot
fail to be Of benefit to all Of the Unit
ed States and Canada" Senator Poin-
dexter said. Increased t%ransporta-
ton facilities is one of the greatest
needs of the west. Both during and
since the war the inability to move it's
products expeditiously has worked as
a handicap to western states. Produc-
ton on the farms has been lessened,
Pacific coast lumber mills have been
shut down, and cattle have died on
western ranges because cars could not
be obtained to ship them to market
or bring food to them.
Continuation of the conditions will
have a profound effort upon our So
cial, economic and political life. We
cannot afford to overlook any oppor-
tunity to better Jul national condi-
ton. Relief lies at hand If we care
to take ADVANTAGE of It,"

RHODESIA "LAND OF OPHlR?"
Archeologists Have Long contended
for and Against Arguments to
That Effect.

The extensive ruins of ancient forts.
temples and gold workings in Rho
desia have ben given rise to consider
able controversy from time to time,
some Psychologists contending that
they are only four hundred or five
hundred years old and others holuing
that they date back to at least two
thousand years before the Christian
era, and that Rhodesia was the land
OF Ophir, mentioned in the Bible at
chapters tx and of Kings.
It is noteworthy that Milton in
"Paradise Lost" book II, speaks of the
angel Michael leading: Adam to a hill
of PARADISE. from whose. top
His eyes might there command wherever

realm Of Congo. and Angola, far

The theory has been advanced that
II Rhodesia was not actually Ophir,
1t was at least the "Havilah" whence
the gold of Ophir was. obtained and
which was so much in evidence at
Solomon's entertainment of the queen
OF Sheba. If this theory is correct
then Sofala Of today would be the
site Of "Tarshish," the ancient sea-
port for "Havilah." and the outlet
for precious stones, metals and other
merchandise, Ophir being situated In
all probability on the southern coast
OF Arabia and constituting distribut-
Ing emporium rather than the place
Of origin Of these things.
