TIME HAS COME TO
DISCARD STRAW HATS
SUMMER APPAREL OUT OF
SEASON THURSDAY. FALL
STYLES TO THE FORE.

The solemn requiem for straw hats
and other trappings OF warm weather
wardrobes will sound when the clock
strikes midnight, Wednesday night,
officially closing the open season for
summer wearing apparel
Thursday, September Is, marks the
formal opening of the fall season. The
man who sports a straw hat on that
day will be showing an appalling
breach of etiquet by so doing, accord
ling to Dawson merchants.
To offset any desire among the men
to make such a horrible mistake hab-
erdashers are displaying an attractive
line of headwear. For the finer grades
of fall hats the prices still are very
high, while cheaper grade of goods
can be purchased at a CORRESPONDENCE
lower figure, it is pointed out.
For the women many new novelties
in the line of clothes are being pro-
vided Skirts, owing to prospects of a
cold winter, will be trifle longer. The
depth of the yoke of the waists on dis
play for fall depends largely on the
hardness of the purchaser.
What will be done with roll your
own" hose is problematical. Merchant,
say the fad was due in measure to
necessity during the summer months,
as women Invested themselves of the
usual means OF fastening their hose
With the return of this piece of apparel
the undressing" hose may disappear
for the winter season at least, accord
ing to the merchants.

HOPE TO FLY WITH
.AVIATORS BLINDFOLDED
EXPERTS WITH BATS GIVE
HINTS TO SCIENTISTS. AIR
PLANE EARS DEVISED.

WASHINGTON, d. C.-British
aviation scientists have solved the Sc
cret OF how bats avoid objects they
cannot see, and are applying their dis
covery to aircraft in the hope OF safe
guarding them against collisions. Re
ports OF the experiments, made public
by an army aviation statement, said
progress was being made with devices
adapted from studies of the bats which
would act as preventives against col
lisions of aircraft.
According to the statement, the
scientist Embodied a number of bats
and released them in a room which
partitioned from another room by a
grid containing holes large enough for
the bats to fly through. The result
was that the flying mammels never
touched a wire and flew through the
holes with ease.
The experiments revealed the bats
secret They were found to emit a
note often inaudible to the ear which
would bound back from the wires and
partitions, conveying accurate informa-
ton to the bats sensitive ears and en-
aiding them to map out space with
eXactneSS.
AeronauticaL experts believe that
airplanes can do the same thing.
The British are busy devising in
struments to that end and their efforts
are said already to have led to the de-
velopment OF. instruments which are
expected to record for airmen sounds
as they approach objects.
1t is said that this information is
expected to be supplied equally as well
in the dark or mist as in clear atmos-

TITLE LOUISE DURHAM

While at play in the back yard at
her home Thursday morning little
Louise Durham had the misfortune to
break her arm in two places. 1t seems
that she was playing around a large
gate and was pulling nails, or trying
to- and in some way the gate fell,
pinning her to the ground by the arm.
Louise was hurried to Dawson tor an
X-ray picture, and it was found neces-
sary to break and reset 1t. She was
afterwards carried to Sasser, where
she will be under the care of DR.. Dur

LOW GRADE COTTON
SHOWS BIG SURPLUS
MORE THAN AVERAGE PRE-
WAR AMOUNT OF SNAPS"
AND "BOLLIES" ON HAND.

ATLANTA, Ga,-There is a sur
plus OF the lower grades OF cotton in
this country, according to reports COM
piled by the Georgia department OF
agriculture. This report points out that
Il low grade cotton in two grades are
known as snaps" and "bollies."
The report shows that during the
last FIVE years about 100000 bales OF
snaps and bollies have been harvested
in the United States in addition to low
grade cotton. Bolly cotton increased
from 141,000 bales i'll 1919 to 10000
bales in 1920 although the price re-
ceived by farmers declined from III
cents to 3.8 cents per pound. This low
grade cotton has entered into the crop
total in recent years.
+ The number of bales produced from
snapped cotton in 1920 amounted to
$4,000 and the price of cotton OF this
character fell from 20 cents pei
pound in 1919 to 5 cents per pound.
The total amount from snaps and boil
lies entering into the crop Of 1920
amounted to 503,000. Estimates of the
quantity of snapped and belly cotton
made by U. S. government authorities
are $4,000 for 1917; 100000 bales for
1918; 100000 for 1919, and 5O3,OOO
bales for 1920.
In prc-war times, according to At
lanta cotton men, European countries
purchased large quantities of low
grade cotton, but until recently the
markets Of a number of these coun-
tries have been closed to American
cotton. As result much more than
the average pre-war amount OF lower
grades of cotton has accumulated in
this country and is being carried in
the stocks at this time.

1t is rather an incongruous idea
that we can destroy a sacred sac
rament with a civil service.
Very few women think that they
are really married, unless an or
dained minister of the church has
pronounced the words, What God
hath Joined together let no man

me particularly sordid that Bah
