LANGUAGE FORMED BY TRADE
excellent ExemplIf'cstion Of the Fact
10 Found In Use OF the
Word "Callco."

There is page OF history con.
cealed In the word "callco." When
the British went to India, they found
there a considerable cotton textile In
dustry. The center of this Industry
was Calicut. What more natural than
that the English traders. who intro
duced Indian textiles into England,
should call that kind of Indian cotton
cloth after the town where they got It
-"Calico7"
But calico even in our own time has
been renamed by foreign peoples after
the place where they got It from,
American" or "Merlcani"
American calico was used by the
early American traders with Eastern
peoples, like the Arabs and the Lev.
antines, as medium of exchange.
The Arabs and the Levantines quickly
named It American" or "Mericani."
Calico, whether imported from
America or from England, Is called
American" all over the Near East.
Language is thus sometimes formed
by trade and by the exchange of goods
between countries. Kansas CITY Star.

Divided Skirt is Old Idea.

No one thinks twice today of seeing
q woman In breaches or divided skirt.
This fashion Is much older than that
of the crinoline, for so long ago ms the
Thirteenth century women rode astride
in divided garments. In 1868. when
France was In the throes of terrible
civil war, women again took TO divided
skirts fer greater ease and comfort in
riding.
The third great revival Of the fash
Ion was In 1880. when an American
lady. Mrs. Elizabeth Smith, adopted
the much-dlscussed "bloomer" COS.
tune.
Another feminine fashion much old,
er than most suppose Is the form of
hat called the "toque." This was first
worn by ladies Of the court OF Henry

In some respects, the journey which President Harding starts today is unusual. It is enc of the longest ever undertaken by occupant the White House It's purpose is to gain information about de- pendent territories improve their condition On the trip every one of the distinguished travellers addresses will be heard by nnumeraby more persons than ever have listened to the speeches of touring Chief Executive.

C., and many of the larger cites the West Coast and returning by way of the Panama Canal and Porto Rico, the President has adopted an itinerary that it's main features has no rival among the records of his predecessors
 In making a personal study of problems affecting Alaska, the Canal Zone and Porto Rco the Chief Executive is showing interest not evnced by other Presidents in details of Territorial Government
 President Harding is anxious his journey shall not be viewed in the light of partisan politics and there is why it should be- for if will not he made the occasion party discussions ar But the Chief Executives nineteen contemplated ad- dresses cannot be divested of political importance in the broader of the term for they will outline the principles he believes should govern in the ad- mnistration of the nations affairs His opinions on the international Court of Justice transportation issues, farm questions Alaskan and porto Rican reforms not based on partsanship exieencies hut rather on what he deems the public welfare
