MOSCOW CUBS TAG DAY

The statement made some time ago
lby Commissioner Mix that the adver-
tisement in the Guide for the Mos
COW Cubs, which circulated all over
the United States, was worth 81 500
at least in advertising the city is re
called by the announcement ycster-
day by the chamber of commerce fer
the Moscow Cubs tag day. The an
nouncement was supported by Mes5rs.
Jenkins, Parsons, and Lauder, and A
plea was made to clear up the debts
incurred out of the managers per-
sonal pocket. The members thought
that it would only be right to hold a
tag day for this laudable object and
let the slate be wiped off for the
season. Manager Eastman aud his
supporters on the Imbler trip diSged
into their pockets to father tie ex-
penses and what is more brought the
championship for junior teams to this
city. Oregon, Washington, and Idaho
has now to bow to the fact, despite
unwise criticisms by Latah county
The advertising put Moscow
and it's juniors on the map and
brought the public to a realization
of the fact that boys can DE disci-
plined to the maxim of a Sound
mind in a sound body The Moscow
Cubs won their honors modestly ami
their attributes carried them every
where because there was character
and citizenship with them. Tag day
in Moscow Saturday should be sap
ported by all who realize what tie
Cubs have done for this city.

THE NEW GOVERNOR GENERAL

1t seems to be decided definitely
that Major Wood will be the
next governor general of the Philip
pine islands The former colonel OF
the famous Rough Riders" will step
into the shoes occupied at one time
or another by William H. Taft, Luke
E. Wright, Henry Clay Ide, James +.
Smith, w. Cameron Forbes and Fran
els Burton Harrison. He will become
the chief executive of a state with
one-tenth as many people as the
whole of continental United States
and more coast line than we expect
our Atlantic and Pacific fleets to de-
fend in North America.
The fitness of General Wood for
the position is very generally accep-
ted. He was once military governor
of Cuba and, in the Philippines them
selves, he was governor Of Moro
province His work as an executive
officer in the army needs no com
mept save perhaps to say that this
would gladly have Shown up" held
the most difficult posts and went on
the most embarrassing missions with
unfailing success.
Many Americans wanted him for
president. It is said that he was the
real peoples choice in the land and
that he would have been elected to
our highest position had his party
seen fit or been able to nominate him.
But he will now become sort Of
president anyway, with a cabinet, a
and a supreme court in as
ISOLATION. He will govern land
which is really 1883 islands and a
people numbering 1O,350,64o, among
hem being Moros, Igorotes and other
pagan tribes.
No small task is the task Of gov
,rning the philippines and no small
nan is needed for the task. Presi-
lent Harding does we'll in choosing
o sturdy warrior, SO able a poli- :!

the sort of work they have to do.
Materials that tear easily, that soil
easily, that shed beads, that catch
scraps of embroidery in the chair arms
and door handles, are not suitable.
Very brilliant colors do not look busi-
nesslike, and, holding the eye as they
do, are things people notice too often
and so grow tired Of. To have taste
for clothes out of the ordinary and to
have to live the sort of life which de-
mands ordinary clothes is condition
in which many of us find ourselves
Only a few hours out of the "a can we

terribly smart in plain clothes If we
really want to be, and considering that
every fashion periodical publishes
smart plain ones for smart plain occa-
sions, as well as smart fine ones for
smart fine occasions, it is distinctly
our own bad taste that leads us to
pounce determinedly upon the wrong

TO CHOOSE SIMPLE CLOTHES
Women Who Toll Seek Garments and

Not Gaudy.

Those who work for their living
must be most conservative in their
choice of attire, no matter how op-
posed to conservatism their fancy nay
be, and in no part of it more than in
the shoes they wear, says Vogue.
Girls, whose poor feet, i'll supported
on crooked pegs, bulge over the thin
sole and wabble as they walk, should
ask themselves what the man behind
thinks of their bending ankles, or. If
they have on laced boots (for a won

low their ridiculously short skirts. AS
for those who wear an evening slipper
OF black satin for daytime street trot-
ting, probably no admonition would
have much effect upon them; one can
only say K is atrociously bad form.

spicuous kind, they should remember

FASHION NOTES

I7ndercarments of Shetland wool
are very popular Oh the continent.
A smart new feature of the latest
millinery is hatpins Of enormous size
and extravagant character.
Many smart hats are being trimmed
with the same sort Of fur which trims
the coat they are meant to accom-
pany.
Gowns which look to the East for
their inspiration are giving place to
those newer and smarter frockS de-
signed after the Spanish mode.
The fans of the season are elaborate
and of many varieties. One interesting
model of curled ostrich has tiny mir
ror in the center. Another is made OF
several swirls of paradise.
There are two silhouettes which
promise to'be very popular this sea-
son. They are the long slender out
line and the pagoda effect. The latter
has circular skirt topped by a slen-
der waist and a very plain bodice.
A unique, but no less charming
afternoon frock is made Of moonlight
hlue velvet, which is cut away at the
corsage to show blouse Of beige
georgette embroidered in blue and
silver. A frill of beige silk completes
| the costume.

the straight upper edge completes the
neck, the collar ends extending to each
side of it. The lower part of this over
bodice is draped slightly in basque ef-
feet, and a portion of it rolls back to
expose the facing of henna georgette
The sleeves and collar are also faced
with the contrasting material, and a
strip of it edges the apron panel of the
overbodice. The skirt has tiers of
satin flounces on each side to vary the
outline.
A new hat is also of gray, the
medium being a fine silk crepe. Com.
bined with it is shiny straw with pale
