extensively used as trimming for

for some of the smartest models are

Such color effects as lilac and

one marvels at the creative sbil-
ity that has developed these gar
ments, particularly if ones memory
can carry her thoughts back to
what we had in the way Of knitted
outerwear just few years ago.
Both the capes shown are &C
contemplated, the first one in a
color combination Of brown and tan,
and of angora is the front facing
and the unusually long and gener-
ously wide scarf that serves as a
neck finish.

SILVER PRODUCTION ESSENTIAL

The best official statistics show
only 58 millions dollars gold avail
able yearly for coinage purposes for
the world.
With 1874 billion dollars world pap
or money issued in last two years,
this leaves only 1-10 of 1 per cent
gold for monetary basis.
There is an inadequate supply of
both gold and silver the world. over
World silver production in 1920 was
only 170,000,000 ounces
Purchases by the United States
Treasury under the Pittman act are
only 60000,000 ounces a year, and
Mexico and Canada produce only
75,000000 ounces.
The crusade to repeal the Pittman
act on the theory that it is an ex-
pense to the taxpayer is a fallacy
The United States Treasury sold
35O,000,000 ounces of silver to En-
gland during the war at 81 an ounce
when the market price was $3.50
Under the Pittman act the Trea-
sury was empowered to replace this
350,000,000 ounces at $1.00 an ounce,
the price it received.
Replacing this silver under the
Pittman act is not only not at the
expense of the taxpayers but is sim
pie justice to the mining industry
which was prevented from selling
silver to England when the market
was high.
If there ever was time in the
world history when we should do eV-
erything to stimulate production OF
both gold and silver it is now, and
the Pittman act in the interest of
silver mining should be backed up
with the McFadden bill, in the IN
torest of gold mining.

SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS
FOR PENN STATE CLASH

The Mayhem State at Philadelphia
is such an important affair for both
elevens that this battle should be a
hummer. Penn State sees it's way
to high football honors in scoring a
victory over the Middies, while the
Navy is so keenly bent on winning
championship favor this year that
special preparation will be made to
meet the attack Of the Nittany Lions.
The Navy has been going at fast
clip all season and Is due for a
slump. 1t reached a high point Of
perfection early in the season to de-
feat Princeton, and 1t will be no easy
task for Folwell to maintain the high
order Of play that the Middies have
already shown. This game will bring
together the two best drilled elevens
the season has shown.
