Liberal, But Not Negligent

A "high British official' is quoted
as saying that America would intro
duse an epidemic of national bank
ruptcies if she demanded immediate
repayment of her war loans to Great
Britain" That is fair sample of a
lot of sophistry put forth for the pur-
pose of misleading people who do not
keep in close touch with international
affairs. 1t is about as honest sug-
gestion as the question of pettifog
ging lawyer who asked a witness
Have you quit beating your mother
in-law?" No man has ever proposed
that Great Britain be called upon for
Immediate repayment" No one has
proposed to crowd Great Britain as to
time of repayment. All that is ask
ed is that the informal promises to
pay be transformed into formal gov
ernmental obligations which the Unit
ed States can negotiate, if desirable,
with fixed time of future payment,
and that interest be paid as it accrues.
The United States is disposed to be
not only q reasonable creditor but a
liberal creditor. But the country does
not propose to let President Wilson
commit the nation to a policy of can
collation. or of negligence which will
have similar effect. After observa-
tion of the course Mr. Wilson pur-
sued in trying to surrender the Unit
ed States to League of Nations con-
trolled by Great Britain and her do
minions, We are inclined to do no
watchful waiting. but to urge action
in the perfection of a business-like
adjustment of our foreign loans.

 Wired tunicS of metal lace will be worn over satin slips.
 Tailored and fluffy rutfies blOuses share hOnOrS this season.
 Paris favors the long, narrow huff with gathered ends.
 Even bathing slippers will have the popular ankle strap.
 Punch work embroidery on cloth and velvet is replacing other embrOid- cry at smart gatherings.
 Dyvetyn veStees, pipings and fac ings, in some contrasting color, are used on serge and tricotine frocks.
 Green and red seem to be the domi- nant cOlOrS for evening wear, particu- larly when velvet is the material cho- sen.
 Grays and browns will be popular this spring, but the newest note of the season will be the very extensive re- vival of the use of pencil-Striped ma- terials.

HAT SHOULD SUIT THE FACE
Woman Who Has Passed Prime Knows There Is Certain Type She
 Should Wear.

"The vintage of 19O7," a teacher said the other day in referring to her hat, which some one had been admir- ing for, having bought a good hat in that far-Off time, she has it renovated and renewed every winter. One merit that the hat possesses is that it fits and suits her style, for it becomes more and more difficult for women who have passed their first youth to find hats that are "suited' to them. A favorite milliner makes the same hat over year after year and, while it neV- CT loses it's look of smartness, it is not in the style. But the woman who has passed her prime knows that there is a certain kind of hat that she must wear. Mrs. Harding is said to have adopted almost exclusively the tricOn shape, which is a very good hat for a woman of her age. One will ind that the best-dressed women are those who wear hats that are becoming to them and do not trouble about the latest fashion. The milliner who re- alizes this will not try to persuade the woman of middle age to wear any of the stylish" shapes. Can one con- ceive of anything more pathetic than a woman of middle age with a tam-o'- shanter perched coquettishly upon her hair, unless it happens that the "tam" is the only style that is really becom- ing to her?

IT TOOK UNCLE SAM } WEEKS TO COUNT
 CASH IN TREASURY
Special Committee of Three Assist ed by Eight Accountants and 15
 Laborers, Took Stock in Vaults.

Washington, Feb. 18.-A complete count of the governments cash has just been made for the first time in 12 years. The total approxinated thir- teen billion five hundred million dollars, and included all cash and securities held as reserves against currency outstand- ing.
 The count was made by a special committee of three, assisted by eight accountants and Is laborers, who were used to move around the heavy sacks of gold and silver. The men delved into great vaults in the Treasury build ing and took stock of gold silver and paper money and securities, many of which had not seen the light of day since shortly after William Howard Taft was inaugurated President and a new treasurer of the United States ap- pointed i'll 1909.
 The accountants in entering the vaults passed grim-visaged guards, who day and night ''sit on the lid' to prevent any possible attempts at an unauthor- ized raid on the Treasury. The vaults themselves are supposed to be burglar proof and are of massive concrete and steel construction The storage sec tions are kept under seal, and this was the first time osrne of them had been opened in 12 years, for when John Burke became treasurer after President Wilson was first inaugurated he ac-

cepted the count of cash in the storage sections, which had been opened since the previous count in 1909.
 The accountants handled money of every possible description, from the lowly copper to $1O,OOO bills Many of the bills, particularly those of the large denominations, such as $1O0O, were in sheets of four each, and held as reserve aganst currency of smaller denomina- tions in circulation. Thousand-do1lar bills i'll circulation are few and each bank i'll the country Is kept supplied by the Treasury with list of them, with their numbers, so that If per chance any are extracted from the Treasury illegally the holder will have extreme difficulty in realizing on them.
 The count just finished was made necessary by the retirement of John Burke as treasurer and was completed i'll the remarkably short time of three weeks through the use of electric counting machines. Loose coins passed through these machines instead of be- ing counted by hand, as was necessary in the o1den days. Paper currency was counted by the piece, but stored coins and currency were counted by the sack or package III cases where the wrap pings were unbroken and the seal on each intact
 The main supply of the governments money IS stored in two large vaults, but there are a number of smaller ones i'll the various divisions of the depart ment as well as in the cash rooms where cash payments are made by the government.
 Gold coins stored in the vaults were counted by weight. The gold is kept in sacks sealed with the treasurer's wax seal and containing $5,OO0 each, weighing about IS pounds and seven ounces. First one sack was weighed and then the others were examined. If both the seal and covering were found intact they were weighed against the first or test sack, and if the result was

A Handsome GirdIe.

A perfectly plain navy blue silk dress has an unusual girdle as the only trimming. The neck is cut square and plain, the short sleeves are plain and the entire skirt and waist are plain, but to wear with this plain dress there is a smart gir- dle made of wide navy blue grosgrain ribbon with a picOt edge and bordered by narrow gold-colOred ribbon. This girdle is almost two and One-halr inches wide, and is trimmed at inter- vals with velvet leaves and flowers made of cloth of gold and silver. The girdle or sash is worn a little below the waist line and is knOtted only once. the ends being allowed to fall several inches below the bottom Of the dress skirt. The girdle changes the dress into a smart costume. The dress and girdle could be made at home at comparatively small cost.
The Connecticut labor news., 1921-02-18

the same were passed and counted. However, If a seal was broken or the sack torn or there was appreC1able diff ference in weight the contents were counted by the piece.
 Standard silver dollars were counted i'll the same way as the gold coin. They are stored in sacks containing 1000 and weighing above 60 pounds. Work on the silver coin was lessened officials said, by the governments melting 100,- 100000 silver dollars under the Pitt man act for sale to the British govern ment to relieve the silver famine in India during the war.
 Paper money IS stored in paper pack ages, making a cube of about 7Zs inches each way and containing 4,0OO notes On each package is stamped the amount and the denomination of the notes in closed. A wax seal Is attached. Ex- Cept where broken seal or package necessitated an actual count of the con- tents, the paper in the vaults was count ed by the package.
 Sealed packages of paper money are accepted from the Bureau of Engrav- ing and Printing as correct when the wrappings are intact, because the issue division of the Treasury maintains an office in the bureau and in reality counts all the paper money before 1t leaves the bureau.
 Coins of smaller denominations quarters, dimes, nickels and coppers- stored in sacks were counted in the same manner as the silver and gold, by taking the weight of test sack for each denomination and weighing the other sacks against it.
 Upon the completion of the count the storage compartments of the vaults were sealed with the seal of the special committee and a receipt was given to Mr. Burke, the retiring treasurer, by Guy F. Allen, his successor, for the bond securities of the government held as cash in the Treaslry. When he signed the receipt the acting treasurer became

HOW TO MAKE A SMART BOW
Ribbon Should Be Wound Around Fin~ gers or Over Nails Driven Into
 Block of Wood

Stylish bows are always tied and are never fashioned from a series of sewed loops. With little practice un- skilled fingers may soon become prof. cient in the art of making smart bows with both narrow and wide ribbon
 To make the bows the ribbon should be wound around the two index fin gers of another persons hands as many times as there are to be loops, and then tied and knotted tightly in the middle. This produces a dainty, attractive bow. If no one is there to furnish the helping fingers, wind the ribbon over two long wire nails which have been hammered into a block of wood the required distance apart. It is important that the loops be pulled out loosely to produce the effect of rosette or bow. The length of the loops, of course, will depend upon the use to which the bows are to be put and upon the width of the ribbon used.

FOR SPRING WEAR
Dress or Suit Is Question the
 Young Lady Has to Decide.
Winter Sale Garments Likely to Prove atisfactory for the Milder
 Days.

"Dress or suit for springW asked the girl who is always forehanded. Because no one can ever be perfectly sure of these things and always sure of avoiding mistakes unless some thoughts in advance, very much in ad~ vance, are given to the matter.
 And someone answered rather nOn- committally that no woman who lived at all out of doors and who went about in the street cars at all could possibly do without suit.
 The forehanded girl is even forehand- ed enough to see an advantage in buy ing a winter sale suit for the first spring days. So many are being of fered and at such wonderful prices that, even if one regretted later that the purchase was made, the matter would not be especially serious.
 Now that frock and coats and suits have ceased to cost, separately, as much as one felt should be spent on the entire wardrobe, everyone is feel ing easier about that most important question, "A frock or a suit and blouse? It can easily be answered by purchasing all three.
 One particular pet with the woman who delights in spring suits is the lin- geFie blouse. Any number of lovely ones are shown in the shops, both those of filmy material trimmed with tilet, and the batiste with eyelet en- brOidery trimmed around about with hand drawn scallops.
 Then Irish has gained such a tre- mendous place in the affections of the woman of 1920 that it is sure to be given a nice place in her 1921 ward robe.
 But the pretty French camisole to be worn with the spring suit had only a little place started for itself last year. Women are busy now acquir- ing them, either through buying or making for the spring suit. They look dressier than the blouse, made of net filet, Irish and embroidery, with their pink ribbon roses added, and they make both a frock and a suit of the suit

SHORTAGE IN STRAW
 HATS IS PREDICTED
Manufacturers Say Lack of Orders Has Cut Production
 Greatly.

Following the widespread reductions in prices by manufacturers of mems straw hats in December and January sufficient orders have been received to enable some factories to resume pro- duction. As yet retailers have been un- willing to place orders for complete lines for the coming summer season, present orders, 1t is estimated, being about one-third in unit volume com pared with normal years.
 Straw hat reached an abnormally high price last year. This checked con- sumner buying to such an extent that great reductions were made to move out stocks and few retailers made money on the seasons business. Manu- lecturers started to sell hats for this summer as early as last August, but retailers have held off buying until the present Manufacturers are beginning to talk of a shortage of hats before the season Is over, asserting that pro- duction lost in the fall months because of lack of orders cannot be rsgained.

WHAT COLOR SHALL ! WEAR?
Tone or Shade Should Be Chosen to Suit the Wearer; Harmony the
 Watchword.

Color has a decided influence on it's weafer, for immediately after the question: "What shall I wear?' comes the all important one of the choice of color What use is color without the right color, tone or shade or cOmbina- tion of both or all three? Most of us choose color for becomingness only, and yet, though color be actually un- becoming, if it be the latest and ssmarteSt, the consciousness of this fact will endow the wearer with cOntented look and q glow of satisfac- tion reflected in her eyes, resulting in a fattering remark among her friends of :"HOW we'll she lOOkS," and then the desired effect is achieved aft CT all.
 COlOrS are no longer chosen &C., cOrding to age as our mothers and grandmOthers were prone to do. No color limit. no hard and fast rules of color before and after thirty in this age and era! On the contrary, the range is unlimited and ever varying. The necessary thing is to know your type and then to know color as ap- piled to yourself. Whereas the un- sophisticated girl chooses bright colors that please her eye, the so- phisticated one chooses cOlors that match her eyes or hair. A French couturere suggested that one should match ones eyes in the evening shades and ones hair in the daytime. This is wise and safe rule. There are those of us. however, who would go about eternally clad in sober browns if we followed this rule, and for those we would put down the law of harmony in contraSt-and what rule was made not to be broken?
