MARRIAGE
A LA MODE

The high price Of shoes has
often troubled many a father. but
the Dalmatian parent is uncon-
cerned, for he never has to buy
shoes for his daughters.
The women there never wear
shoes until after they are married.
so the shoe bills fall to the hus-
bang Even in well-to-do families
this custom prevails.

The refusal of Lord Derby to enter

determination Of many Conservatives
TO cut loose from the coalition. q
The premier's political enemies de-
clare it is impossible for him now to
retain his position as head Of the adj
ministration while depending mainly
upon Unionist votes and urge that it
is time he recognized the fact and
made his threatened resignation dcfi-
mite.
No Word From Premier.
Meanwhile no word comes from

Mr.. Lloyd George has decided to pro-
long his stay in Wales to see how far
the ferment will work before he de-
