THE RIGHT THING
at the
RIGHT TIME
WHAT ABOUT RINGS?
BrMARY MARsHALh DUFFEE

The apparel oft proclaims the man
Shakespeare.
TT MAY be that some friend Of yours
in Paris viii write and tell yon
that "they" are wearing rings out
side of their gloves in the French cap
ital. and from New York you may hear
that this fad has reached this side of
the Atlantic. But in spite of this in
formation you viii probably not
choose to wear your rings in this way
and TO do so would show not very good
taste If you belong 20 just sane, av-
erage group Of mortals who do not
strive after the new and unusual in
dress. For 10 wear rings over the
gloves is still so unusual that il would
make you tremendously conspicuous If
You attempted IT, But Ii has been an
established custom and there is a IA
nous portrait of queen showing her
with large ring on the index finger
of her gIOved right hand.
A few actresses and women who like
the unusual in dress did wear rings
on the index finger a season or so ago.
but IL was II passing fad, and not an
attractive one at that. You viii no.
tice. too, that women of taste practi-
cally never wear rings on the middle
finger. They appear especially awk-
ward there They are now worn al
most always either on the ring finger
or on the little finger.
1t is not in very good taste, and II
was never attractive, 10 wear many
rings on one finger. Fingers weighed
down by diamonds Indicate that the
wearer is more anxious To show the
value of her rings than their beauty.
4 married woman does not wear any
ring but her wedding and engagement
ring, or her wedding ring alone, on her
left hand ring finger. OF course,
there are some married and engaged
women who do not care much for the
wearing Of these betrothal and we'd
ding rings. who sometimes substitute
for them a ring of another sort. But
in this case the other ring should be
worn instead of the wedding or be-
trothal ring ana not with it.
The old-time rule used to be that a
well.bred woman never wore diamonds
in tie morning and you will still no
tice that most women of taste wear
none save in the form of their engage
ment ring. At least, one should not
,Mear diamonds, save an engagement
ring, OBJ the 'g6if course or for any attn
letic meeting. 1t is extremely bad form
10 wear riasss in profusion in bust
mess Office. TN general, children are
not permitted To wear any very valu-
able rings. and the most discriminating
mothers perhaps do not permit their
children TO wear any rings ut all. Girls
are not usually permitted TO wear pre-
cious stones until they have come out"
or are seventeen or eighteen at least.
There is u rule in most hospitals
that the nurses in training should not
wear any rings, and the sensible
young woman does not object to this.

ANOTHER BOOMERANG

The calling of the agricultural
conference by the President was
a typical bit OF Harding tactics,
but the outcome has been just
what might have been expected,
Judging by the developments of
the last 10 months Alarmed by
the growing strength of the far
mers' bloc. the President thought
to start a counter-fre, So To speak
and in this way TO annex to his
own side elements which prom
ised to make great trouble for his
administration.
But instead of aligning itself
with the President in his we'll
known antipathy to anything like
independent movements in poll
tics, the Agricultural Conference
has passed a resolution commend
ing the action of those members
of the House and Senate COM
prising the agricultural bloc. who.
regardless of party. 50 early saw
the emergency and have SO con
sistently supported constructive
program for the Improvement OF
agriculture and the lettering of
rural life; and now the whole
bunch is off the reservation. To
be sure. there was a sop for Mr.
Harding in words praising him
for calling the conference; but the
sympathics of its members are
clearly with the rebellious Sena-
tors and congressman, and not
with the man in the white house
and his spokesman, Secretary
Weeks.
1t is no wonder that such an
orthodox paper as The New York
Herald, reviewing the mistakes of
the past year and the growing
spirit of insurgency in Congress.
is moved to confess that THE
more reasonable Republican lead
erS concede the possibility of the
lower branch OF Congress falling
into the hands of the Democrats.
1t is a great opportunity for the
Democrats il proper advantage
shall be taken of the plumbers OF
the G.. Q. p. These. according to
the Herald. include the failure
of the Republican majority to pro-
vide relief from burdensome taxa
ton. an adequate tariff with

tons. the retention of Newberry
in the Senate and the enactment
of an unavoidable bonus law de

men" Add to these domestic mis-
takes the bungling foreign policy
of the Administration. and the
Democrats will have an abund-
ance of campaign material for the
coming election. November. 1922

was very similar.

HAS A LONG COAT BUTTONS IN
THE BACK?

-HE two buttons which appear at
the back of mems frock coats and
the coats OF their evening
clothes" are supposed to have had
their origin in the fact that men for
merly wore a sword-belt ard. in order
to support this, buttons were placed
on the back of their attire.
1t is quite possible that this is the
way in which the style originated.
but it served n more useful purpose
not so very long ago. when the skirts
or tails of such coats were made very
long and got tangled up with the
wearer's legs when he moved about
rapidly. 4 British tailor hit upon the
idea OF placing buttonholes in the
lining of the coat-tails. thus permit
ting the tails TO be buttoned up and
kept out of the way. The fashion for
long coats passed. but the buttons

The traditions OF civilization
saved the deal from lapsing TO

of the produce issued receipts to

1t would be interesting TO study
to determine whether the ele-
ments which existed in this local
deadlock were the same as that
which prevails 50 largely the
country over. And if so, did the

colleagues, carried on some studies

Among other conclusions reached by
the experimenters, the most important
was the determination that, when the
time of exposure in hours multiplied
by the concentration of carbon mon
oxid in parts per 10000 of air equals
three, there is no perceptible phys-
ologic effect. When it equals six, there
is just perceptible effect; when it

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

No keen political observer believes that
the Democrats will obtain control of the
house of representatives next month, yet
if they were to overturn the Republican
majority there would be an end of con-
structive legislation for two. years. The
Republican majority probably will be re-
duced. The 1920 vote was not normal
alignment of Americans politically.
1t is vain to predict the size of the Re-
publican majority in the next house, but
Democratic sources inform all who will
listen that it will be from 40 to 80. The
concession is made by the party of Will
son with hope that it will quiet Republi-
can efforts to get out full vote and that
Democrats may slide into congressional
seats AS a part of the subtle scheme it
is announced for the Democrats that they
do not care to win majority in the house
as to do so would embarrass their chances
of success in 1924. With a Democratic
majority in congress during the president
ial campaign period they would be re-
sponsible for the failure to accomplish
anything of benefit to the country. This
is preparing an "alibi" in advance. Never
the less it makes a substantial argument
for Republicans eXerting themselves
everywhere to retain all the seats they
now hold and increase the number as
much as possible.
President Harding and the Republican
congress have made record of achieve
ment which calls for neither apologies
nor excuses. The country would be sadly
afflicted were the Democrats to secure
power to prevent completion of the pro-
gram of beneficent legislation to which
the Republicans are committed. The
Democrats want to control the house in
order that they may tie the hands of the
Republicans and then accuse the latter
of neglecting the public welfare. They
cannot succeed unless Republicans by
sheer Indifference at the polls hand them
victory

GOOD JUDGMENT.

The Democratic County Central Com
mittee set a good example in endorsing
Felipe Hubbell, Republican candidate for
County Assessor and in doing SO, point
the way for the voters to put efficiency
above partisanship in the selection of
county officials. A private business does
not ask a man whether he is Republi-
can or Democrat, but its chief concern
is that he possesses the qualifications OF
an efficient executive. The same principle
applies to the business of the county,
which is not affected by political con-
siderations. If the voters will follow the
example of the local Democrats and vote
irrespective of party label, Bernalillo
County will be assured an efficient adj
ministration.
