ARMISTICE DAY PARADE
ROUTE DETERMINED

Fifteen organizations were repre-
scntcd at the committee meeting last
evening for arranging the Armistice
day parade. A great deal of enthus-
iasm was manifested and many de-
tails were discussed. One of the i'm
portant things decided upon was the
line of march, which will be as fol-
morning of Armistice Day from City
hall, the march will proceed down
Water street to Grove, to Silver. up
Silver to Elm, from Elm to Post Office
square, thence down Main street to
the point of starting at City hall.
This is somewhat different than the
usual route of local parades but the
committee believes that it will have
distinct advantages.
The committee decided to admit
floats to the parade and each organ
ization participating is asked to pro-
vide a float. 1t was decided to hold
the dedication of trees and the
speech making in City hall square
after the parade. All organizations
planning to take part in the great
event and this includes both men and
women are urgently requested to
send representatives to the next
meeting Of the committee at S O'Clock
next Wednesday evening at Amer
lean Legion hall for the discussion Of
further arrangements.

Ponzi's Household
Goods Sold for
Benefit Creditors

lexington, Mass. Oct. 26-The
scenes of last year when hundreds of
people fiocked to this town for q
sight of Charles Ponzi, who was pay
ing so percent on 45-day investments.
were re-enacted today.
The crowds came this time not to
see the man or his palatial home but
to bid upon the expensive furnishings
of the house which he occupied for
a brief period before being sent to
Jail for using the mails to defraud.
So great was the crowd of bidders
that it was necessary to hold the sale
en- the lawn 1t was estimated that
about $4,000, probably not more
than half the original cost of the
furnishings was realized. The money
will be added to the assets being col
lected by the receivers to meet the
demands of creditors.
A player piano for which Ponzi
is said to have paid $4,000 was
knocked down on bid of S2175. A
14-picce ivory set from Ponzi's own
sleeping room went to a woman bid
der for 1915 and the elaborate dining
room furnishings brought S775. The
living room table lamp was sold to
Lynn woman for S201. One OF the
several Oriental rugs brought $3.50
and 5000 was paid for the stair
carpet.

Length of Girls Hair
Like a Mans Necktie
AS a Qualification

Baltimore. Oct. 26.-Judging a girl ;
fitness for business by the length of
her hair as an employment standard,
has little more to recommend it than
the selection of man because he
wears a bow tie or a hand. in
the opinion of DR.. William W. Guth,
president of Goucher college of Balti-
more. While little vanity is god
for any woman, "bobbed brains" are a
more vital subject than bobbed hair.
according to President Guth.
1T is difficult to see why this
harmless feminine within has aroused
such widespread discussion" DR.. Guth
added, unless, perhaps, it is true that
We delight in making mountains out
of molehills. For, all the evidence
visible from a college Office points to
the fact that the young girl of today
is aiming toward a standard net to De
compared with uniform coiffures-tre
standard of real usefulness in the
home, in the community and in the
world of business.
$50 much has been said about the
yanities and frivolities of the modern
girl that it is only fair to point QUO
that the average girl of today is far
better equipped mentally than the girl
of a generation ago. The girl of today
wants to be useful as well as orna-
mental"

China Wishes Bal
ance of the Boxer
Indemnity RENTED

Picking, Sept. 5-(By MaiD--A
plea for remission of the unpaid bal
ance Of the Boxer indemnity as one
of the advantages that China might
reasonably expect as result of the
Washington conference is put forth
by the Picking Daily News, a student
controlled daily. The paper declares
editorially that it's appeal is not to
international altruism but is based
on justice.
Granted that the Chinese were
entirely to blame for the events of
1900--and the Chine of the present
day are willing to admit it. despite
the incendiary record of the bowers
in the decade that preceded the re-
bellion-the indemnity was all out
of proportion to the losses incurred
by the allies" it is argued.
when the day of reckoning came
the other powers-to her lasting
credit, Japan was one of them-were
aghast at the outrageous claims ad-
vanced by Germany and Russia
Germany especially was rapacious in
her demand for her pound of flesh
After much deliberation all the
protocol powers. except Germany ac-
knowledged the unrca sonableness Of
copied the position when the Ger
man representative imperilled the
unanimity of the negotiations"

Storm Costs Tampa
Million or More

Plant City, Fla, Oct. 2G.-Storm
damage in Tampa from yesterdays
hurricane will reach at least one mill
lion dollars. according to reports re-
ports received here today. Numerous
houses were reported swept away, es-
pecially inthe Palmetto Park section
where the greatest destruction was
under from 10 to II feet of water and
efforts to reach there this morning
from Tampa were unavailing.
The greatest damage to business
buildings in Tampa resulted from the
blowing in of plate glass windows,
awnings and roofs and the flooding
of stocks. Bayshore Drive and
Boulevard and the seawall were
wrecked in many places, huge holes
being made by the raging seas. while
portions of handsome residences on
the bay front were torn away. Many
roofs were blown off and numerous
homes are regarded as total loss.
Ybor City. one of the most popular
quarters suffered heavily.
The power house in Tampa still
was under water today and the city
was without water and fire protcc-
ton from yesterday morning until
10 o'clock last night when the flood
began to subside. It was expected
power would be partly restored to-
night.
