Hats increase in size rs winter ap-
proaches. In the early autumn there
WAS a decided preference for small
hats. Any discussion, asserts n Paris
fashion writer in the New York Irlb-
une, as to whether small or large
shapes will prevail never seems worth
while because as any season advances
,he demand for the large hat is aug
mented. In midWintcr rs we'll rs In
midsummer the large hat invariably
makes It's appearance. Now tlere Il
about an even showing of both types.
No striking changes in shapes can
he recorded, but much that is atten-
zion arresting appears in colorS, mate
rials and trimmings. The predolhl-
lance of velvet over hatter's plush is
IN interesting note.
II is several seasons since olored
velvetS have had such Il vogue. we NJ
Ways have had Il certain number OF
black velvet hats, but blue or red val
vet in headgear has been an exception
in Gee years.
Tie new blue, popularized by Made
lcine ct Madeleine of Paris, has had
considerable influence on millinery.
Hats in the lighter shades of ! vel
vet. during the last few seasons, nave
been looked upon as commonplace u
consequently received no showing ut
the smart establishments.
BRIGHT Hued VelvetS.
Since those high in authority In the
hat world have called Il risht-about-
ace, the deSlEscd light-cOlored velvet
nat makes its appearance in the most
select circles. Such Il revolution can
not fail to please Il certain type or
American who always has In
cluded i'm her wardrobe Il blue hat be-
cause OF its b~cCOmingneSs. This blue
Is not the color of the navy uniform,
but that of the Frenchman'S army coat.
Colorcd facings on black hats also
are IL welcome departure. These inno-
yations aid In solving the much-dis-
cussed question as to whether II wom-
an shall be smartIy or appealinSly
dressed. They make Il happy compro-
mise between the two.
There is q vogue for trimming black
hats with colOred ribbons-a revival OF
Il very old-time fashion. The Paris
miliiners who make hats TO the order
Of each customer are linking the color
of the gown with the hat trimming.
Bows of bright colOred ribbon frequent
~ appear on black hats. A large shape
may have the bows beneath the brim
ut either side. The loops are some
what long and the ends even longer.
Ribbons Enliven Black Hats.
IL the fashion for colored ribbons on
black hats Is enthusiastically received
in this country it will mean many
maGu-tu. roe hats. which will insure
more becoming millinery than we have
had recently.
In this country the milliner has
shown her hats, the customer tried
them Oh, and If She found one that was
satisfactory she either bought it or or
dercd one like il. But the French mil
liner and her client have proceeded
along an entirely different line. So eX-
acting were the customers and so

ICOL Vim ENDORSES
| SUMMER SCHOOLS
By Associated Press)

Frankfort, Ky, April Build
ings are important; there must
be room for children to play and
I pure water for them to drink, but
this is not enough-the teacher
must be properly trained-says
State Superintendent OF Public
Instruction George Colvin in a
letter to the school teachers OF
the state made public here today
The letter urges on the teachers
the necessity of attending the
summer schools for teachers to be
established throughout the state
during the summer months.
There will be not less than =
of these schools, Mr.. Colvin says
There must be fewer, and
larger and better Schools" says
Mr.. Colvin in his letter. "This
means transportation. There
must be longer terms for rural
children. Longer term and trans
portation will meth more money
for the schools, but the children
are worth it. Yet nor buildings,
nor books, nor Fairgrounds nor
length of term. nor size of school
will suffice. Children will not
learn unless. they are taught.
They will not be taught unless
there be competent teachers. No
one can teach that which he does
not know. One may know and
still be unable to teach that he
knows. Professional training al
so is needed. No school is better
than the teacher that teaches it.
Poor schools are not always the
fault Of the community, said Mr..
Colvin, and never the fault of the
pupils. 81 should like to have
every Kentucky teacher feel that
education in Kentucky depends
upon her; that it is Judged by
what she does; that if she fails.
the failure is not confined to her.
but affects the profession through
out the whole state" he cOntinz
ued.
Teachers are now getting bet
ter salaries, the people of the
state showing their faith in them
IN this way. and it is now up to
the teachers to show their faith
in the people by becoming ade-
quately prepared, he said. There
IS no excuse of the schools being
too far away this year, he said, as
arrangements are being made to
bring the schools to the teachers
through the Extension Depart
ment of the University and the
Normals. Competent instructors
will be employed in these schools
and they are designed not only to
teach the teachers who must take
an examination next year but also
to care for the needs of those who
are more learned.
Financing of the schools has
been made easy, he said, through
county and city boards making
appropriations. They also have
promised salary increases to
teachers who attend these schools

at 0nalaska, Lacrosse county. The
interest in better hogs was expressed
by most admirable cooperative as
sembly of Wisconsin United CONNER
cial Travellers of Lacrosse, business
men of Lacrosse and admirers of the
Duroc Jersey breed of all western
Wisconsin. Some 400 Duroc fans sat
down to a most liberal feed furnished
by the Duroc Jersey Breeders Associa-
tion of Lacrosse county. Nothing
was spared in entertaining, needless
to mention the music and the many
stunts for old and young. Duroc
walters were well in attendance.
Speakers of the day expressed their
appreciation o fthe thoroughness of
Duroc sentiment by calling the at
tention of those present to the twenty
or more auburn haired walters. In
fact, Mr.. Kelly's expression most fully
expressed the appreciation of Duroc-
ism when he said, THE latest Duroc
Jersey color should be Schenectady
for it is just 40 anies beyond auburn.
All in attendance expressed their APP
probation fthe occasion and hoped
that a similar occasion might be en-
joyed in the near future at the Ona-

MISFORTUNE BEFALLS
THORSGAARD BROS
One Loses Wife from Blood Poison
Other Wife and Daughter in the
Pueblo Flood

During the past month there are
two brothers, born and reared in this
community, sons of Mrs. Edw. Thors-
gard of this city, who have had their
share of misfortunes. They are E. o
Thorsgaard of Birmingham, Alabama
and Lauritz Thorsgaard of Pueblo
Colorado. The former arrived here
last week, accompanied by his ten
year-old son and seven-year-old daugh-
ter His wife died a month ago in
the Alabama city from lock-jaw, in
lection having resulted from minor
scratch of her skin. She was sick
only two days. Mr.. Thorsgaard is
street car dispatcher in that southern
city.
Lauritz Thorsgaard, his brother, re-
sides in Inflated Pueblo, over which a
tremendous flood swept two weeks
ago, and his wife and youngest daugh-
ter, eighteen or nineteen years of age
were drowned. The body of the moth
er was recovered, but that of thc
daughter has not yet been found. The
husband and father is railway fore
man and was away from home at the
time of the disaster. E. o., who is
here at present tells us that he was
in Pueblo last year and that the river
running through the town was not
bigger then than he could have waded
across it anywhere.
The sympathy of this entire COM
munity goes out to the two very IN
fortunate ENTHUSIASTICALLY Times.
