HOWATT'S LAST STAND

Defeats sustained by the coal
miners of Kansas who have re-

miners Of that State lIowatt is
sewing six months in Jail for con

from the Industrial Court and
sets up the claim that his i'm
prisonment arises from acts de
fined as violation Of the law ON
which the Industrial Court rests.

the Industrial Court interposed its
authority between the right of

DEMAND FOR TOYS
Christmas Eush Is On, According 10
Dealers.

Whether or not the prominent re-
tail stores are getting business IN
other departments from their efforts
to promote early Christmas shopping.
there Is little question that the toy
departments are being patronizcd
more freely than usual at this dine
Of the year. This may he due To a
realization on the part Of consumers
that, IL they followed their usual Gus
tom Of leaving the bulk OF their
Christmas buying to be done after
Thanksgiving, they would have several
days less In which TO do il. IL is more
likely, however, that II was the stores
which realized this fact and governed
themselves accordingly. In any event
a healthy consumer demand IL In evi-
dence. with a general line Of toys and

plays are such that adults are attrac-
ted by them fully as much a. child

than II has been. Opinion is more
inclined toward the belief that the
way has been paved for a better busi-
