Cities Should Adopt Business Methods
The voters of St. Paul do rot wish
to return to the mayor-council form
Of government, which shows thei-:
good sense. St. Paul has a commits
sion, which is one step towards the
best form CT all-the city manager
plan. When cities get enough bust
ness sense to select few real bust
nessmen, at so modest salary that it
will not attract politicians, and let
these men select competent manager
to administer affairs, tEer: will be
much more value received for the
taxes. This is the way big business is
managed successfully, and a munich
pality is but a corporation in which
every voter is stocklolder.-

a duty to "ship by freight and not by
truck and to ride in vestibuled steel

and less roads will be abandoned. Ov-

THE RUNNER ON YOUR LIVING

There is no doubt about it, the
cover of our living room table Is a
bit of evidence which may either

my column readers and compare
them, wouldn't it? Ask yourself if
your table cover would stand the
test. If your answer to yourself is
in the negative then. by all means,
set about making yourself a new
and more tasteful one.
1t is not necessary to go to great
expense IN acquiring an artistic
table cover. We all have some suit
able material on hand which may
be put to this use. A piece of ORR
entail embroidery would, for in
stance, make lovely cover; if it is
not large enough in itself. it may
be used as the center of a runner
of plain colored, dark silk, the en-
tire runner being then edged with
guimpe the same dark shade as the
silk.
Scraps OF Oriental silk may be
used in the same way. If these
scraps happen to be oblong in
shape, they may be appliqued on
either end of the plain silk runner,
as bands, then the entire runner
edged with guimpe.
Cloth and cloth ofgold
backed by a more solid material,
make most attractive runners.
These are especially effective in a
living room where there is mahog-
any furniture or furniture which is
upholstered in tapestry or velvet.
Plain, dark colored velvets and
velours lined with sateen and bound
with gold galoon are also much in
favor, as are the heavy satin fin

GIRLS TRY FOR
MOUSE ROLE IN
STUDENT DRAMA

Once upon a time mighty lion,
which is being interpreted a Wall
street financier, was caught nap
ping as even tired business men
in Albuquerque are sometimes, and
when he awakened from pleasant
dreams of bossing the rest of the
inmates Of the jungle, which being
interpreted again means the rest
of the Chamber Of Commerce, he
found himself bound by cords so
that even his great strength
availed him nought. Now, wheth-
er the cords are the force of the
law or an inconvenient conscience
aggravated by q pretty girl, will all
be made clear April 20 and 81
when the seniors present their an
nual play, 1.-THE Lion and the
Mouse" in the high school audi
forum.
AS for the lion, can you not in
fancy hear the roar of Joe Benja-
min, who did good work as an
amateur in the MAN of the Hour"
last year? Or because the parts
have not been assigned yet. per-
haps 1t will be another of that
same cast, Woodford Heflin,
whose oratorical powers would 81
lence the voice of even the most
ambitious real lion.
AS for the rest of the story, the
lions noisy temper failed to extri-
cate him from his dilemma; it was
left for mouse,-oh irony Of fat
to designate the leading girls role
by the animal most abhorrent to
the sex,--to gnaw the ropes and
set him free, but only after n
proper amount Of tantalizing. Now
whether the gnawing, which will
be thoroughly ladylike affair and
well interpreted, will be played by
Edna Upper or Elnora Davis is
still unsettled.
OF course there is lover. What
Is q modern fable without at least
one lover, who whether lie will be
Charles bearing OF Max Merritt
will WOO the mouse with the prop
er feryor to the last curtain call,
by no means an easy task when
you consider that almost every
girl in the senior class is or was
trying out for the mouse.
The rest Of the parts will be well
acted by an "all star cast" as they
say in the movies, for the play Is
heavy enough to afford a real
character study for even the short
est part.

Off-the face mats 1ave had such
a long successful reign that the
dropping brimmed models will be
welcome with open arms if only
for the variety they Will offer. The
spring has almost done the chin
hat to death with every tweed suit
and topcoat topped by a felt or
straw soft brimmed hat which
turns off the face. Youth can
wear the off-the-face style with
pleasing effect. but it is better for
the matron to wear the droopine
or large brim which shades her
face and softens the lines.
These two smart hats pictured
show the dropping brim as it is
interpreted by q leading New York
milliner. 1t may be noted here
that the model has bobbed hair,
which explodes that theory that
the bobbed hair miss must wear a
chin hat. On top is a striking
model made of bright red milan.
1t is trimmed with field flowers
and fruit and a bit of wheat. 1t is
just the hat for the white summer
outfit or for wear with the red
silk sweater, Below is shown an
orchid taffeta hat with a leghorn
straw facing. The trimming is q
flower design done in colored silk
on the soft crown.

After the monthly bills were

with the idea that he had turned

A WOMAN'S VANITY.

As the human race emerged
from savagery and became more
sensitive to things that were beau
tiful the hair was regarded as
something more than covering
to protect the scalp from the
weather.
1t was a disgrace to be bald in
Biblical times. The ancients of
the eastern nations wore their
hair long, both the men and the
women, and had most eXtravagant
fashions in curling and dressing
it, and in using sweet smelling
pomades. When Caesar entered
Gaul he found both sexes wear
ing long hair. and when he con-
quered them he compelled them
to shear their locks in token of
submission. Being bald himself
he probably appreciated the pun
ishment!
The ancient Britons were proud
of their long, blonde hair. To
make it brighter they used mix
ture of lime, tallow and vegetable
ash The greatest disgrace for a
woman was to have her hair cut
Oll, TIC VI OH di
wife.
But long curled hair carried to
an extreme seems to mark per-
iod of decadence. There is a
story of a Norman bishop who, in
1104. preached at the Court of
Henry I. against the folly and
vanity of long curled perfumed
locks. He was so eloquent that
the king and his court had their
hair cut off by this jealous old
bishop himself.
History is full of such amusing
stories of curled hair. The
Greeks shaved their hair and left
their mourning locks upon the
grave of their beloved. Curled
hair has always been considered
beautiful, and only when carried
to extremes has It been thought
a useless vanity. 1t is curious to

Or they may exactly fit the surface

little more than a mat, not reach
ing to the edge of the table on any

Above all remember that the
table runner or mat should never
