Star Facts.

When you look up ut star in the
heavens you may think you see the
star as it is at present. This is not
true. and Israel NJ. Lewis, writing in
st. Nicholas. says that a little star
known as 81 Cygni, in the constclla-
ton Cygnus, the first star to have its
distance from the solar system deter
mined, is about eight light years re-
moved from us. In other words, its
light takes about eight years TO travel
the distance that separates it from the
solar system. and as a result we see
ii, not as it is tonight but as 1t was
at the time when. the light now enter
ing orr eyes first started on its Jour-
ney, eight years ago.

TO ACT PROMPTLY
ON NEW TREATIES
Believed Senate Will Ratify Pacts of
Conference on Limitation
of Armament.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-Following
closely on the close of the Washington
conference, the treaties produced by it
will be submitted to the senate by Pres
ident Harding. Best Indications, as
matters now stand, are that they will
be ratified after Sufficient debate and
without partisan division.
Sentiment in the senate has not def
lnitely crystallized and will not Until
and reducing naval armament Is placed
the entire program for assuring peace
before that body.
There seems TO be more Opposition TO
the treaties Mt present. than had been
expected, but this antagonism of the
senate, leaders on both sides say, is due
to hastily conceived opinions. They be-
lieve this viii disappear when the full
effect of the treaties is explained and
the direct results in reduced taxation
are seen.
That this opposition may become a de-
termined force, however, IS predicted if
the conference should adjourn without
Japan and China arriving at a salts
factory solution a. to Shantung, for the
adjustment OF which there is strong
and wide sentiment i'll America.
In the opinion OF one of the most
forceful of the Democratic leaders, the
treaties will not be made a partisan is
sue as was the Versailles treaty by the
Republican party.
He said that the attitude of the Re
nubEcans on the Versailles treaty would
have lost for them heavily. in the 1920
campaign if this had been the only issue
on which the party sought restoration
to power. That wise leadership will pre-
vail in the Democratic party to prevent
such a contest as that staged by the
Republicans j. the opinion OF this sena-
tor. who Is confident that the treaties
will be accepted by the senate without
forcing them to tho fore as an issue for
the congressional elections THIS year.

There was a crepe frock that com

THE sleeves and blouse were all IN

How about the waistline?' asked
one of the girls. The newest frocks

This carried out that idea Pam

costumes, and some of the shadow lace
petticoats. with trimmings of tiny pink
roses and knots of silver ribbon, are
exquisite.
Flesh tinted radium silk is used for
exclusive lace-trimmed garments; Or
child and honeydew have favor also as
lingerie colors; and some dashing and
smart sets are of coral radium silk
with hand stitchery and ribbons In
black. Pure white handkerchief linen
sets trimmed with real Irish lace are
preferred bv women of conservative
taste who can afford the very finest
and most exquisite in undergarments.
